<h4>Chapter 1358: Chapter 1371</h4>


    Fang Lang fell silent, of course, he hadn’t forgotten these things, but the Great Elder looked in such a state that Jian Chunqiu and the others couldn’t be allowed to see it!


    Old Wang red angrily at Fang Lang, feeling a sense of "hating iron for not bing steel", at this critical moment Fang Lang actually chickened out!


    After a while, Old Wang suddenly realized something, furrowing his brows as he looked at Jian Chunqiu and asked, "By the way, why does it seem like you’re missing someone? Where is Chu Ge?"


    Jian Chunqiu’s eyes flickered slightly, and he sighed, "While we were at the rest station, a wild wind suddenly arose, and a giant ck hole appeared in the sky, and Chu Ge was sucked into the ck hole."


    Old Wang’s brow furrowed tightly, "What did you say? Sucked in?"


    "Why didn’t we notice it just now?" Fang Lang asked, confused.


    Old Wang rolled his eyes at him and snorted, "I called you a fool, and you really don’t use your brain; we’re near the Time-Space Mirror, and the closer you get to it, the less you can perceive the danger it brings."


    "Since that’s the case, why don’t you let your people live near the Time-Space Mirror too?"


    Lin Dong asked with confusion, voicing his doubt, always hearing them talk about the threat of extermination, if there’s a threat of extermination, why not prevent it?


    Since there’s no danger near the Time-Space Mirror, why don’t they move over?


    "You guys don’t know, although there’s no danger near the Time-Space Mirror, it’s not suitable for long-term residence. Even us staying here, it’s only because we know martial arts, so we’ve been here for so long without any reaction, but ordinary people are different, any carelessness and they’ll be backfired by the Time-Space Mirror."


    Old Wang exined, he looked at Jian Chunqiu, again opening his mouth, "Elder Jian, I know your martial arts are excellent, do you think you could help us save the Great Elder!"


    Jian Chunqiu said, "If you want me to save him, I’ll have to see what his condition is first."


    Old Wang nodded repeatedly, "Yes, yes, I’ll take you there right away."


    With that, Old Wang led Jian Chunqiu to the Heavenly Pond, but after taking only a few steps, Fang Lang stopped them.


    "Old Wang, you can’t do this!"


    Fang Lang stood in front of Old Wang, expressionless, "I think we should report to the Pavilion Master first, then decide based on the Pavilion Master’s instructions!"


    Old Wang red at him sternly, "Fang Lang, if you care about the Man Yue n, move aside for me immediately!"


    Fang Lang stood where he was, not moving.


    Seeing this, Old Wang swiftly drew his sword, pointing it directly at Fang Lang, "Looks like we only have one choice between us!"


    Fang Lang didn’t hold back either and drew his sword, snorting coldly, "I’ve wanted to have a good fight with you for a long time! If you want to take them to see the Great Elder, it’s not impossible, you’ll have to step over my body first!"


    Seeing that the two were about to fight, Jian Chunqiu moved forward with some helplessness, "Isn’t the most important thing now to figure out the situation with the Time-Space Mirror? The Man Yue n is in great trouble now, and you are still considering whether to save the Great Elder?"


    Fang Lang parted his lips, hesitating a bit.


    In fact, what Jian Chunqiu said wasn’t without reason, their urgent priority was to solve the problem with the Time-Space Mirror, but on the other side, could Jian Chunqiu really cure him?


    Fang Lang felt some doubt in his heart.


    Old Wang snorted coldly, saying to Fang Lang, "I think you don’t want Elder Jian to go save the Great Elder, afraid that if he gets better, Man Feng won’t get the position of Great Elder, right!"


    Fang Lang seemed to have his innermost thoughts revealed, instantly ring at Old Wang in anger and embarrassment, "What nonsense are you talking about?"


    Old Wang snorted again, "Am I talking nonsense, or is it what’s in your heart, you know clearly!"


    Fang Lang pursed his lips, ring angrily at him.


    Watching the two argue relentlessly, Lin Dong felt like they were ying house like children, "Stop making a scene, it’s better to figure out what’s going on with the Time-Space Mirror!"


    "Exactly, five cracks appearing at once is definitely not a small matter, and yet you’re here bickering."


    Fang Lang felt somewhat ashamed, pursing his lips and ring unwillingly at Old Wang, then saying, "You take them to see the Great Elder, I’ll report to the Pavilion Master!"


    In the end, Old Wang took Jian Chunqiu and the others to the Heavenly Pond, which was actually a pool of water at the mountain top.


    What was even more surprising was that this pool was as cold as ice year-round but never froze over.


    The Great Elder was here; although the low temperatures couldn’t cure his illness, they could effectively keep it from worsening.


    As Jian Chunqiu and the others approached, they heard howling sounds in the distance, filled with pain.


    "Our Great Elder is locked in that cave over there." Old Wang pointed across, where a long suspension bridge connected the two mountain tops. Jian Chunqiu stood on this side of the bridge, and indeed saw a cave on the other side, its entrance fenced off.


    "Let’s go, take a look."


    Jian Chunqiu said. But after taking a few steps, he suddenly thought of something, turned back to the people behind him, and said, "You wait here, don’te over without my permission!"


    Old Wang nodded with satisfaction, as he was also concerned about this point. No matter what, the Great Elder’s current state wasn’t suitable to be seen, and they all valued their reputations. Having so many people see the Great Elder’s sorry state would indeed be quite embarrassing.


    Jian Chunqiu followed Old Wang, crossing the suspension bridge to the cave entrance.


    It seemed that the Great Elder sensed something; he slowly raised his eyes to look at the cave entrance.


    His hair was a mess, and he looked particrly haggard; especially his eyes, filled with red veins, his face was bruised with green and purple marks, looking particrly ferocious and frightening.


    Seeing Jian Chunqiu, his eyes suddenly brightened, crazily rushing to the cave entrance, as if wanting to burst out from inside.


    Old Wang looked at this scene with a heartache, telling Jian Chunqiu, "Elder Jian, you’ve seen it, now whenever he sees someone, he gets particrly excited, and we have no way to release him."


    This is also why they locked up the Great Elder; whenever he saw someone, he’d want to suck their blood. If released, it would certainly cause chaos and panic.


    Jian Chunqiu frowned at this scene, feeling that the Great Elder’s illness was quite peculiar.


    "Haven’t you investigated the cause, why the Great Elder turned out like this?"


    Old Wang sighed, "If we could figure it out, we wouldn’t have needed to lock the Great Elder up. We would have cured him by now."
