Chapter 422: Chapter 422: What Exactly Does the Formation Master Want to Do

An Xiaoya speculated about the reason the Diviner suddenly took an interest in Quan Jinbei, but Shi Yaoguang was not at all curious.

There’s nothing to be curious about.

In her view, whatever motives the Diviner had, they would be impossible to achieve.

Knowing that was enough.

...

After the Diviner left in a huff, he joined up with the TV crew.

Seeing her return, the little Taoist nun asked, "Did you tell them that this place is very dangerous?"

The Diviner snorted disdainfully and said, "I think they’re just asking to die. It makes no difference whether I tell them or not."

Hearing this, the little Taoist nun instinctively felt something was amiss.

How could there be people who would come here to seek death?

But seeing her like this, it was clear she was in a bad mood, and after a moment of thought, the little Taoist nun decided not to voice her own concerns.

Anyone with eyes could see that the Diviner was not to be trifled with right now.

So they wisely chose to remain silent.

The little Taoist nun guessed that the Diviner had probably not told Shi Yaoguang and the others about the situation here and decided to go over to them.

When the little Taoist nun came over, Shi Yaoguang was discussing with An Xiaoya where to search for the Formation’s key point.

Of course, An Xiaoya did not have a method to find the Formation’s key point.

Even though she was a genius among the Heavenly Masters, she had not yet fully matured.

She could not compare with Shi Yaoguang.

So now, what she had to do was cling to Shi Yaoguang’s proverbial coattails and find the Formation underground together.

And try to figure out just what the Tai Chi Array underground was all about.

Logically, this place was a desert and should not have been the site of anyone’s deliberate actions.

But the reality was that someone had laid out a Formation beneath the desert.

This caused other variables to appear in the desert.

If there were no plots afoot, that would be for the best.

Otherwise, they would have to resolve it as quickly as possible.

During the search for the Formation’s key point, Shi Yaoguang was almost certain.

Within the Mobei Desert, there was nothing she desired.

This meant that what could heal Quan Jinbei was not here.

Even though the Mobei Desert also met the conditions for the emergence of a Heavenly Dao secret treasure, fundamentally, it could not be compared to one.

In such a situation, she had no choice but to think of another way.

"Master, what do you think the person who set up the Formation really wants to do? A perfectly fine waste, setting up a Tai Chi Array here, could it really be meant to turn this place into some kind of base?"

An Xiaoya spoke to herself, then shook her head in denial, "That can’t be right either. If they really wanted to make this a base, there should have been some news of it."

"The life and death balance of the Tai Chi Array must be maintained, otherwise chaos may ensue, and ordinary people surely wouldn’t want to undertake such a thankless task..."

The little Taoist nun arrived just in time to hear An Xiaoya say this.

She was somewhat curious, "Xiaoya, what are you talking about?"

An Xiaoya looked up at her and, seeing that she and the cameraman had come over, was a little surprised, "Aren’t you supposed to be filming? What brings you here?"

The little Taoist nun explained, "I saw that the Diviner was in a bad mood, and we encountered danger as soon as we got here, so I was worried about you and came to check on you."

As she spoke, her expression grew serious, "You must be very careful; this place is very dangerous..."

No sooner had she finished speaking than she felt something behind her.

Just when she was about to turn around to see what was happening, she saw a fireball flying towards her.

It grazed the top of her head and fell into thin air.

There seemed to be nothing in the air, but after the fireball struck, a miserable scream was emitted.

The fireball looked as if it had hit something, scorching a hole through the air itself.

The young nun was astonished at this sight.

In disbelief, she turned to look at Quan Jinbei, "You, you..."

Stammering for quite some time, she finally managed to say, "How did you do that? That’s too impressive, right?"

Seeing only admiration in her eyes, without the repulsive possessiveness of the Diviner, Quan Jinbei’s attitude softened significantly compared to how he had treated the Diviner.

The young nun looked at Quan Jinbei for a few more moments before averting her gaze and said with embarrassment, "I’m sorry, I got a bit carried away."

"I’m just a bit shocked..."

She was telling the truth, which was evident from the blush on her cheeks.

Only through comparison can one understand the difference in level.

When the Diviner acted like that before, An Xiaoya could still think of excuses to defend her in her mind.

Until now.

The young nun, just like the Diviner, had witnessed Quan Jinbei’s capabilities, but her reaction was poles apart from that of the Diviner.

From this, one could see just how big their difference was.

Since the young nun behaved well, An Xiaoya did not conceal their purpose from them.

In fact, there was nothing much to hide.

If they really found the formation’s core and needed to break it, it would surely alert the television crew following them.

After hearing An Xiaoya’s explanation, the young nun was dumbfounded, "You, you can’t be serious, can you?"

"The formation underground, it must have been left by our ancestors generations ago, I can feel its strong presence, and it won’t be easy for you to find a way through it..."

An Xiaoya was quite confident, "You don’t have to worry about that, with my master here, we can definitely do it!"

Saying this, she looked eagerly at Shi Yaoguang, "Right, Master?"

Shi Yaoguang shrugged, "I never said for certain."

An Xiaoya said cheerfully, "Master, don’t be so modest. I believe you can definitely do it!"

At the same time, she thought to herself that if even Shi Yaoguang said it was impossible, then probably no one else could do it.

With that thought, her gaze towards Shi Yaoguang filled with even more admiration.

The young nun had made some estimations about An Xiaoya’s abilities as well.

Seeing An Xiaoya’s trust in Shi Yaoguang, she couldn’t help but become intrigued about Shi Yaoguang.

Looking at Shi Yaoguang with some anticipation, she asked, "Master Shi, may I join you?"

"You want to join us too?" An Xiaoya pointed in the direction of the television crew, "Don’t you still need to film the show?"

The young nun wasn’t worried about that; she pointed to the camera following her and said, "Having Xiaohei with me will do. The director just mentioned that as long as we ensure enough footage is captured, it will be fine."

As she spoke, she made a pleading gesture, "Can I follow you guys?"

An Xiaoya didn’t dare make a decision for Shi Yaoguang and looked towards him with the young nun.

Shi Yaoguang didn’t mind, and thinking that the young nun, being from the Taoist Sect, might gain insight into the Tai Chi Array, he casually agreed to let her stay.

The young nun was delighted with the arrangement, while the filming cameraman looked worried.

Observing his expression, the young nun suggested, "What if you give me the camera, and I shoot it myself?"

Upon hearing this, the cameraman seemed tempted.

If it weren’t for the high salary offered by the television crew, he really wouldn’t want to come to this godforsaken place for an adventure. Now that the guest had proposed he return, he naturally found the idea appealing.
