Chapter 742: Chapter 742: Xuan Yanwu is a Bit Dazed

While Ji Yang was dealing with the backlog of work in the city, in Shisong County, Xuan Yanwu stood there watching the people of the Gan Family trapped inside the Formation.

Inside the Formation, the people of the Gan Family had been trapped for many days, and no one was able to rescue them.

Although they possessed Inner Strength, after being trapped for so many days, each of the Gan Family members was lying there listlessly.

The Xuan Family had sent the people of the Gan Family over, initially thinking that with their capabilities, they would be able to take over Shisong County. However, news came from the Gan Family later that all their experts were trapped in a mysterious Formation in Shisong County.

Initially, the people of the Xuan Family were skeptical, thinking it was just a temporary trapping. They had never seen a Formation that could trap people for several days since Formations also required an energy supply. The Mortal World hardly had such abundant energy supply.

But soon, the people of the Xuan Family were also shocked, as the people of the Gan Family never came out of the Formation.

Xuan Yanwu, since last time she went there, had consumed some True Yuan and had been in seclusion to recover the lost True Yuan, hence she was not aware of the situation with the Gan Family.

A few days later, when Xuan Yanwu emerged from seclusion and had recovered her True Yuan, she learned about the Gan Family’s situation.

Naturally curious about the Gan Family being trapped in a mysterious Formation, Xuan Yanwu, as an Array Master, was filled with a desire to investigate. Therefore, she immediately headed to Shisong County.

To avoid any trouble, Xuan Yanwu did not notify anyone this time and silently arrived at the place where the people of the Gan Family were trapped.

Just as she arrived, the personnel sent by the bureau had already seen her.

“Deputy Director Xuan.”

Someone came forward to greet her.

Waving her hand, Xuan Yanwu said, “Don’t mind me, I’m just looking.”

As a deputy director, she naturally had the right to observe.

Standing there, Xuan Yanwu had been watching for quite a while. Although she knew it was a Formation, she had no way to decrypt it.

Xuan Yanwu knew her own limitations; although she was an Array Master, that was only the case within Blessed Lands and Caves. She was not very familiar with many profound Formations, many heritages having been lost.

Now seeing this Formation, she knew she had encountered the ancient Formation she had been searching for.

However, no matter how she looked, she could not understand the situation of the Formation.

Whether the people of the Gan Family were alive or dead was not important to the people of the Xuan Family; what was important was that there was an ancient Formation here.

At that moment, a bureau staff member came forward and said, “If we don’t rescue the people of the Gan Family soon, they might die.”

These staff members were ordinary people practicing Inner Qi, so they were not afraid of Mortal Dust Qi. Xuan Yanwu glanced at him; these people were far inferior to cultivators like them and were only used for tasks in The Mortal World.

“Can you break the Formation?” asked Xuan Yanwu.

The staff member gave an awkward smile; he didn’t have the capability, just a reminder.

Ignoring what he might have wanted to say, Xuan Yanwu stepped forward, getting closer to the Formation.

“Deputy Director Xuan, don’t get too close. The people from the Gan Family got trapped after getting near it. Our people, after approaching, were trapped inside for a while before being sent out.”

Was there such a thing?

Xuan Yanwu stepped forward further.

Just as she approached, Xuan Yanwu felt a pulling force from her body, and then, she felt herself entering a special space.

Xuan Yanwu wanted to check the situation of the Formation. Upon entering that space, she panicked a bit. Although knowledgeable in Formations, this was only slightly better than the Fengshui Formation. These true cultivator Formations, especially the ancient ones, were completely beyond her understanding.

Xuan Yanwu quickly realized she had entered a desert environment. She walked continually inside, searching for a way out, but unfortunately, after a long time, she still had not found an exit.

Just as she was unsure of what to do next, a small path appeared before her.

Following the path for a while, Xuan Yanwu found that she had walked out of the Formation and was standing outside it.

Looking back at the people of the Gan Family inside the Formation, they were still trapped.

Xuan Yanwu understood somewhat; it seemed likely that this Formation was intentionally trapping the people of the Gan Family.

Why would it specifically target the people of the Gan Family?

The first thing Xuan Yanwu thought of was that this Formation definitely had someone behind it, perhaps even someone who was watching them.

She quickly called her subordinates, instructing them to show her the surveillance footage set up here.

Indeed, the bureau personnel had installed surveillance quite promptly, and the entire footage was being replayed.

However, no matter how much she watched, she couldn’t see anyone appear.

What exactly was going on?

Xuan Yanwu was truly befuddled, completely unable to understand what was happening.

Thinking about the possibility of the people of the Gan Family being trapped and dying inside, her heart also started to feel uneasy. Perhaps, a major force was lurking in the shadows.
