Chapter 693 Where is everyone?
Gu Duo's pupils constricted sharply: "What human body treasure map? What does 'human body treasure map' mean?"
Yi Yun Kui just stared at Gu Duo and remained silent.
Gu Duo lifted Yi Yun Kui onto the altar and threw him into the middle of the altar. Yi Yun Kui's body crashed onto the lotus platform.
Gu Duo drew his sword and approached Gu Duo step by step: "Tell me, what exactly is the meaning of the 'human body treasure map'?"
Yi Yun Kui only gave Gu Duo a meaningful smile, then quickly touched the lotus platform and turned some mechanism. Suddenly, the lotus platform moved and sank into the ground.
Gu Duo's eyes widened, and he rushed over quickly.
However, he couldn't keep up with the speed at which the lotus platform was sinking, and he only managed to grab nothing.
The lotus platform sank completely, but the ground suddenly became flat again.
Gu Duo took a deep breath: "Yi Yun Kui, get out here right now!"
Ye Qing'an and Yi Moxu also rushed over quickly: "Where is he?"
The veins on Gu Duo's forehead bulged and throbbed violently. He didn't answer Ye Qing'an's question, but simply raised his hand, gathering spiritual energy in it. The wind from his palm whistled, and then he struck the ground with his palm.
But the ground remained unmoved, and Gu Duo suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood.
"Wait a minute." Ye Qing'an quickly called out to Gu Duo: "General Gu, wait a moment. There are formations and barriers on the ground. If the formations and barriers are not broken, even if we use all our strength, we will not be able to break this place."
Gu Duo's face grew increasingly grim, and he suddenly stood up: "He escaped from here, so he must have returned to the palace. Let's go and search for him in the palace."
Yi Moxu had regained consciousness: "Yi Yunkui isn't stupid. With the three of us together, he naturally understands that even if all the guards in the palace were combined, they might not be a match for the three of us. Under such circumstances, he naturally wouldn't stay in the palace to wait for death. However, he is seriously injured, and if he doesn't find someone to treat him, he won't live for more than three days."
As Yi Moxu spoke, her gaze fell on Gu Duo: "I just heard you questioning Yi Yunkui about some kind of human body treasure map, but what did Yi Yunkui say to you? What human body treasure map?"
Gu Duo clenched his hands in his sleeves, his lips pressed tightly together: "Yi Yun Kui said that I am his human treasure map."
"What is a human body treasure map?" Ye Qing'an frowned, her eyes full of confusion.
Gu Duo shook his head: "I don't know. I was asking Yi Yun Kui when he ran away."
Ye Qing'an tilted her head: "A human treasure map, that doesn't sound like a good thing. You're his human treasure map... Did he put something on you? Hide something inside you?"
"I have nothing on me." Gu Duo's face was grim.
Ye Qing'an glanced at Gu Duo's expression, remained silent for a moment, and then said, "It's possible that this human body treasure map is just something Yi Yun Kui used to mislead us. Perhaps he deliberately made it up to divert our attention."
“Whether it’s true or not, I will definitely kill Yi Yun Kui. I must find Yi Yun Kui and get the truth out of him.” Gu Duo gritted his teeth: “He can’t hide forever. The Siyou Kingdom is so small. There are only so many places Yi Yun Kui can go. I don’t believe he can really just disappear without a trace.”
"I have to go find him."
Ye Qing'an opened her mouth, wanting to persuade him, but Yi Moxu grabbed her hand.
Ye Qing'an swallowed the words that were on the tip of her tongue, and after a moment of silence, she changed the subject: "General Gu once mentioned that before he went to Mingyue Kingdom to surrender, he was taken to an underground palace by Yi Yun Kui. Is this the place?"
Gu Duo then raised his eyes and looked around: "It's here."
Gu Duo looked at the spot where Yi Yun Kui had just disappeared: "That lotus platform was the place Yi Yun Kui told me was where the national treasure was kept. Yi Yun Kui brought me here back then..."
Ye Qing'an nodded, then asked again, "General Gu, can you still smell that scent you smelled in this underground palace back then?"
Gu Duo frowned, sniffed carefully, and then shook his head: "It's gone, I can't smell it anymore."
Ye Qing'an nodded: "Back then, it must have been the Night Demon Clan who caused this trouble."
“However…” Gu Duo pursed his lips: “Didn’t you say that Yi Yun Kui is no longer under the control of the Night Demon Clan? Why do I feel that Yi Yun Kui is fully aware of what happened back then, and has no remorse for his actions?”
Ye Qing'an felt the same way, and frowned slightly: "I also find it puzzling."
Yi Moxu chuckled lightly: "I don't find it suspicious. Yi Yunkui is naturally suspicious. Perhaps the things Liu Enze made him do back then were things he wanted to do but didn't dare to."
"Liu Enze essentially just gave him a push. I even have a feeling that Yi Yun Kui's personality has changed several times, as if he has fallen under Liu Enze's control several times. In reality, perhaps he himself is using the excuse of being controlled by the Night Demon Clan to do things that he wouldn't dare to do when he is sober."
"This was something he wanted to do anyway, and he could even use the excuse that it was done by the Nightshade Clan, so why wouldn't he do it? And why... would he regret it?"
Gu Duo gritted his teeth inwardly and chuckled, "That's right, that's just the kind of person he is. I forgot..."
“The palace is still here, his wives, concubines and children are still here, I don’t believe he can run away to anywhere.” As soon as Gu Duo finished speaking, his figure flashed and he disappeared from the spot.
Ye Qing'an turned to look at Yi Moxu: "Aren't you going to go and take a look?"
"I'm not going." Yi Moxu's face was completely nonchalant: "Gu Duo won't be able to find Yi Yunkui. How could someone like Yi Yunkui believe that the palace is absolutely safe? A cunning rabbit has three burrows; he probably has more than three. As for his wives, concubines, and children, do you think Yi Yunkui would care about those things?"
"So where do you think Yi Yun Kui will go?"
"Seek medical help." Yi Moxu pursed his lips. "As I just said, if Yi Yunkui doesn't treat his injuries, he won't live more than three days."
“I know most of the famous doctors and cultivators in the world who can cure him. As soon as he appears, I will definitely receive the news.”
Ye Qing'an nodded, "I see."
Is it because everything is under control that you are so indifferent?
Ye Qing'an glanced at Yi Moxu before asking, "What about Gu Duo..."
“As I said before, Gu Duo is hiding a secret, a secret that will interest the whole world. Since Gu Duo wants to go out, we might as well put him out in the open.”
"I'm also curious about what Gu Duo is hiding."
"And what exactly is this so-called human body treasure map...?"
