Chapter 543 Sun Ruhai's Conspiracy
Therefore, everyone had already tacitly agreed to intercept Sun Ruhai on his way out of the city and seize the Bodhi Leaf.
Leng Yun and Long Nu were also waiting for such an opportunity.
Although the entire medicine city seems peaceful now, there is an underlying sense of unease, as if a storm is brewing.
In the streets and alleys of the medicine city, it seemed that the people coming and going were living the same lives as before, noisy and bustling.
But hidden among these people are turbulent conspiracies, hidden even from the sunlight.
Soon, three days passed. Under everyone's watchful eye, Sun Ruhai made no move for the past three days, simply locking himself in his room. No one knew what he was doing.
However, no one cared; they were waiting for Sun Ruhai to leave the city.
The Extinction Sect is located deep in the mountains and forests, far from Medicine City. If Sun Ruhai wants to present the treasure to Master Extinction, he will need to travel a very long distance.
Given Sun Ruhai's cautious nature, he would naturally not entrust the treasure to anyone else.
Therefore, Sun Ruhai will definitely personally take the treasure out of the city.
Leng Yun was also very curious. Sun Ruhai must know that there are countless people in Medicine City watching his actions. So how exactly will Sun Ruhai leave Medicine City?
This seems to have turned into a battle of wits and courage, and the real excitement has only just begun.
Leng Yun was discussing alchemy techniques with Elder Wang and others when a servant sent to monitor Sun Ruhai suddenly came to report.
"Reporting to Lord Leng Zun and Elder Wang, Sun Ruhai has been dispatched!"
"Oh, really? How many people did he bring, and which direction did he come from?" Old Wang asked.
"Only he set off from the east gate of Medicine City," the servant replied.
"What?" Old Wang was somewhat incredulous, and Lin Dong and the others also looked bewildered.
Leng Yun frowned; he knew there must be something fishy going on.
Given Sun Ruhai's cunning and shrewd nature, he couldn't possibly be unaware of his current situation. Yet he dared to openly expose himself to everyone. Either he's gone mad or he's plotting something.
"Could it be a stand-in?" Leng Yun asked.
"I've already investigated secretly, and it is indeed Sun Ruhai. Moreover, I've also secretly investigated the other forces, and they all came to the same conclusion," the servant said.
In Medicine City, every faction, besides monitoring Sun Ruhai, naturally also monitored others. Everyone came to the same conclusion: it seemed that this person really was Sun Ruhai.
"Could it be that you're all wrong?" Old Wang still couldn't believe it; he knew Sun Ruhai best.
"Unless there is such a pinnacle of disguise in this world, but that's probably impossible; we can't see a single flaw," the servant said confidently.
Leng Yun didn't speak; his mask-making artifact could achieve perfect disguise.
However, Facebook is a powerful tool provided by the system, and Sun Ruhai probably doesn't possess such a thing.
"That's strange!" Old Wang muttered to himself.
Lin Dong looked at Old Wang, then at Leng Yun: "So what should we do now?"
Old Wang remained silent, and everyone looked towards Leng Yun's position.
After thinking for a while, Leng Yun had an idea.
Then, he summoned the Dragon Girl and had her follow the nominal Sun Ruhai, while he remained inactive, guarding the Medicine City to prevent Sun Ruhai from actually using the "Golden Cicada Shedding Its Shell" trick.
……
As they were talking, Sun Ruhai had already left the city, but not from the east gate of the medicine city, but from the west gate.
His clothes were tattered and ragged, making him look like a beggar, with a huge hood completely covering his head.
A gentle breeze blew by, and he quickly walked into the woods. Then, relying on his powerful senses as an alchemist, he sensed that no one was around.
Sun Ruhai then revealed a sinister smile.
It turned out that for the past three days, Sun Ruhai had been hiding inside the house, using a secret technique of the Sun family that was not passed down to others.
He used a secret technique to create a clone of himself, which is the person walking at the east gate of Medicine City.
This clone is actually a part of Sun Ruhai, so no one can tell that it is fake. However, Sun Ruhai created a clone, and a portion of his own power entered the clone.
Therefore, his strength is now almost half of what it used to be.
However, he was not worried at all. He thought that his plan had succeeded and that he had tricked everyone into going to the other side of the East Gate.
"If I can just buy myself an hour's time, I can escape from here!" Sun Ruhai thought ominously.
He also knew that his clone could not deceive these experts from various forces in Angu Kingdom for long.
Then, Sun Ruhai closed his eyes and released his spiritual power. Through his clone at the East Gate, he could sense that everyone else was following behind that clone.
At the same time, Sun Ruhai's clone had also walked out of the East Gate and arrived at a sand dune not far from the East Gate.
Behind him, several murderous auras slowly rose, and everyone was following Sun Ruhai.
However, no one was willing to be the first to make a move. Everyone knew the saying "the mantis stalks the cicada, unaware of the oriole behind." Amidst their mutual suspicion, Sun Ruhai's clone had already gone far, while the real Sun Ruhai was moving further and further towards a safe place.
Just as everyone was closely following Sun Ruhai's clone, unwilling to be the first to make a move, they suddenly sensed another powerful force appearing behind them.
Gu Tianjiao looked around. He knew that Young Master Wu and Young Master Watanabe were around him, but he didn't know who the powerful force behind him came from.
Then, a streak of green light flashed and landed heavily in front of Sun Ruhai before everyone's eyes.
She was a woman of unparalleled beauty, dressed in white with flowing long hair. Although her pretty face was stunning, she exuded a fearsome aura.
"Oh, so it's this little girl." Gu Tianjiao smiled excitedly when he saw the person who had come. It was the Dragon Girl he had met at the auction.
"Hand over the item!" the dragon girl said coldly.
Gu Tianjiao immediately gave a shout and led his men out from the shadows.
To demonstrate his power, he deliberately flew into the sky and then plummeted down, a beam of yellow light kicking up a cloud of sand from the ground.
"I didn't expect to meet you again, beautiful lady." Gu Tianjiao smiled.
The Dragon Girl completely ignored Gu Tianjiao and instead repeated to Sun Ruhai, "Hand over the item!"
Gu Tianjiao was a little puzzled. Now that he had shown himself, why hadn't Young Master Wu and Young Master Watanabe appeared yet? Was there some other conspiracy?
However, he didn't care about any of that at the moment. Instead, he looked at the dragon girl in front of him with a lewd expression: "Haha, I didn't expect the heavens to help me, Gu Tianjiao. Today, I can not only get the Bodhi Transformation Leaf, but also capture a beauty to enjoy."
