When they woke up, both of them couldn't help feeling a bit sore from last night.

With the influence of the alcohol, they had gone much harder than they normally would, so their bodies were sore from it. Both of them couldn't help looking at each other with awkward smiles when they woke up.

But still, Lin Fan placed a kiss on Mu Bao Bao's head and she revealed a happy smile.

It had been a long time since they had done it for the pleasure of it.

It wasn't as if they hadn't done it during this time, but they had only done it as part of their dual cultivation.

They had been worried about the enemy, so they didn't think about giving each other pleasure during these dual cultivation sessions. They only thought about increasing their cultivation levels as much as possible.

To let go and just do it for the pleasure of it was something that hadn't been done in a long time, so it helped them relieve the stress that they had been under.

Both of them were in a much better mood compared to before.

After cuddling for a bit, they got out of bed and got some food.

They still had plenty of time before the tournament began and Yi Lei was in charge of getting information for them, so they didn't really have anything to do until she came back with information or until the tournament.

So they didn't mind being lazy like this.

That was until Lin Fan suddenly remembered something.

He had forgotten about it because of Mu Bao Bao's sudden attack, but now he remembered what he had heard at the bar last night.

After thinking about it, Lin Fan decided to check it out with Mu Bao Bao.

Mu Bao Bao was confused since Lin Fan didn't tell her anything, but she still followed him out of the city.

Of course, the two of them had gone to the Mercenary Guild before this to get a mission so there was a reason for them to leave the city. But that mission didn't take more than a few minutes for them once they had left the city.

It was a C Rank Mission, so the spirit beast that they had to hunt was only in the Fourth Qi Gathering Realm.

Not to mention Mu Bao Bao who was in the Golden Core Realm, just Lin Fan in the Foundation Realm was able to take care of it with just a flip of his hand.

With Greeny's puppets, finding the spirit beast was a piece of cake as well.

So it took them no more than a few minutes to find the spirit beast and kill it once they left the city.

After it was killed, Lin Fan threw the corpse into the Pet Storage Space and they headed off in a certain direction.

As they went forward, they went deeper and deeper into the woods until they finally came to a pond. At the back of the pond, there was a waterfall there gushing water down into the pond.

This was a place that was surrounded by greenery, so it was like a hidden piece of paradise that was untouched by humans. However, that was far from being the truth.

There were footsteps that were all around the pond that showed that there had been humans who had been here before. At the same time, there were also traces of arrays that were placed here to monitor this place.

There were also people who were sitting in the trees, watching over the pond and the waterfall, as if they were watching over something important.

It would be strange that there was this much surveillance for a random pond in the middle of the forest if one didn't know the situation here. Lin Fan did know since he had heard about this place in the bar last night.

This was a place that had been discovered by accident by someone and then it had been spread to the ones that had come to this city. The ones that were all from the sects and powerful organizations of the empire.

As soon as they heard about this, they had sent people to investigate this place and that was what had resulted in it being watched like this.

As for what was inside..

According to the rumours that Lin Fan heard, it was supposed to be some kind of hidden treasure of the Love Sect.

Once again, it was something to do with the Love Sect.

He didn't know who spread these rumours, but it seemed like it was all connected to one thing. It seemed very likely that someone from the Love Sect had survived and was now in this city, using the Love Sect as bait to bring in the people to take revenge on..

Whoever it was seemed like they didn't care about their life at all, but Lin Fan couldn't just let them die. After all, they should be important to Mu Bao Bao if they were from the Love Sect.

But Mu Bao Bao had doubts that it was someone from the Love Sect since no one who had survived should have this kind of capability. There might be people who would want to do this, but they weren't smart enough to do something like this.

The ones that were smart were the kind ones that had risked their lives to save the others during the destruction of the sect.

Lin Fan already knew that there would be watchers in this area, so he had already cast the illusion spell around himself.

Mu Bao Bao had already seen his illusion spell before, but seeing it again and seeing how effective it was, she couldn't help being amazed.

Even with all these people here, they were able to stand in plain sight all because of this strange illusion spell that he had casted. She had never heard of anything like this before, even in the large collection of the Love Sect.

He always seemed to have these amazing things that she couldn't explain at all..

But that wasn't a bad thing since that always made her feel safe because he always used them to keep them safe.

As they walked over to the waterfall, Lin Fan looked over at Mu Bao Bao as if he was asking her something.

She just stared at the waterfall for a bit before shaking her head to show that she didn't sense anything.

If this was related to the Love Sect, then Mu Bao Bao would be the best person to check this out since she had the inheritance of the Love Sect. She would recognize anything related to the Love Sect right away.

But since she was saying that she didn't sense anything, then he couldn't help being a bit confused.

eαglesn?νel There had to be a reason why these people were all gathered here, they weren't fools after all.

So he started searching around the area with his Appraisal Eyes.

No matter what he looked though, he wasn't able to find anything special about this place. That was until he sent one of Greeny's puppets through the waterfall.

He found through that puppet that there was something hidden behind the waterfall.

But that was strange since he wasn't able to pick up anything from the waterfall with his Appraisal Eyes. It was almost as if there was something there that blocked the powers of the Appraisal Eyes.

So Lin Fan went to the area around the waterfall and looked carefully.

When he used his Appraisal Eyes there, he found that..there was an array there that blocked spiritual senses. His Appraisal Eyes was an application of spiritual sense, so an array blocking spiritual sense would have an effect on it.

But usually, these arrays weren't strong enough to stop his Appraisal Eyes and he would be able to see the array itself.

So why was that not the case this time?

This kind of array must be very powerful and if it was this powerful, why did someone waste it in a place like this?

This just didn't make sense at all.

The more he thought about it, the more suspicious he became.historical

Mu Bao Bao had been just standing there waiting for Lin Fan's response.

But seeing that he just stood there without saying a thing, she couldn't help asking, "What's wrong?"

Lin Fan didn't respond right away, but after a while, he said with knitted brows, "It seems that this place is more complicated than I thought."

Mu Bao Bao also knitted her brows when she heard this.

She knew what kind of things would be considered complicated for Lin Fan.

He didn't even flinch when it came to things Qi Condensing or Golden Core Realms, so something that even shook him would be at least in the Soul Building Realm or even..in the Nascent Soul Realm!

That was a realm that was far beyond them, so this seemed like it would be a bad idea to keep going.

Mu Bao Bao was about to reach out to grab Lin Fan's hand and urge him not to go forward, but Lin Fan suddenly turned around, catching her off guard.

He looked deep into her eyes and asked, "Do you trust me?"

Mu Bao Bao was caught off guard again when she heard this, but she looked into his eyes and then gave a nod. Then she reached her hand out to grab the hand that he had been holding out to her.

Lin Fan gave a nod too before turning around to step towards the waterfall.
