399 Strange Village, Disappearing Team Member (1)

Lu Yan was still somewhat puzzled about this.

Since they had discovered traces of the Dark-born Society, there were definitely members of the Dark-born Society hiding in the Yang Family Village.

Without outsiders entering, it was very likely that these Dark-born Society members had built a secret room under the Yang Family Village.

It was just like the secret room Wang Lei was in previously.

Therefore, Lu Yan wanted to investigate underground.

Seeing this, Li Moqing did not stop him. Last time, Wang Lei’s discovery was also thanks to Lu Yan.

Moreover, there was indeed the possibility for there to be a secret room underground.

However, when Lu Yan entered the ground, he felt that something was wrong.

It felt very hard. Even if there was a secret room under the ground, it was definitely not here.

Thinking that he had already relied on the Corpse Stealth to enter the ground, he began to investigate, wanting to figure out the exact situation.

Lu Yan quickly swam forward and kept investigating, but he could still sense the pressure from the surroundings.

This situation was completely different from there being a secret room underground.

After carefully investigating the entire Yang Family Village, Lu Yan returned.

After arriving on the ground, Li Moqing and the others shifted their gazes. “How’s the situation?”

Lu Yan shook his head. “I didn’t discover any secret rooms. There shouldn’t be much of a problem underground.”

Li Moqing nodded when she heard this. She pondered for a moment and then said, “This matter is somewhat complicated. Teacher Yang Hongwei has already disappeared, and there aren’t many clues around.

“The sky has already darkened. At night, everyone will go out and investigate the situation in the village to see if there are any new discoveries. Remember, you can’t disturb the villagers here.”

Hearing Li Moqing’s words, the surrounding people nodded.

Qiyue said, “Are you suspecting that there might be hidden Dark-born Society members in the houses of the surrounding villagers?”

It was obvious that Li Moqing wanted to investigate the situation in the surrounding villagers’ houses by suggesting to investigate at night.

Li Moqing nodded when he heard this. “That’s a possibility. We’ll investigate tonight.”

Qiyue nodded. For now, they could only give it a try.

Everyone directly set up tents in the courtyard. A few members of the Dark Destroyer Team also lived in the three houses.

After returning from the investigation at night, they would definitely return here to rest.

Night quickly descended. With a gesture from Li Moqing, they directly began to spread out into the surrounding Yang Family Village and began to investigate the situation in the surrounding villagers’ houses.

Everyone’s movements were very gentle. They were all combat professionals and naturally had a way to investigate the situation in the villagers’ houses without disturbing them.

Lu Yan also chose a direction and quickly rushed out.

He still used Corpse Stealth. In this state, Lu Yan could directly enter the villagers’ houses without being discovered.

Lu Yan chose the east direction and quickly investigated the situation in the village in this direction. Basically, they were all villagers who had already fallen asleep. There were also some who stayed up late to play with their phones.

However, he did not discover anything unexpected, nor were there any suspicious people hiding.

After determining that there was no problem with this direction, Lu Yan saw that it was still early and continued to investigate the entire village. Soon, he completely investigated the entire village.

Lu Yan directly entered every house. He checked the situation of the villagers inside clearly and found that there was no problem.

After quickly returning to the courtyard, the other members of the Dark Destroyer Team had already returned and were reporting the situation to Li Moqing.

Just like Lu Yan, they did not discover any suspicious situation in their investigation. This was an ordinary village and there were only ordinary villagers inside. There were no traces of the Dark-born Society.

If not for the runes on the wall of the house from before, it would definitely not be a problem at all.

Li Moqing frowned slightly as she listened to the surrounding reports.

Then, she directly said, “Alright, everyone rest first. We’ll investigate the surroundings of the village tomorrow and see if there’s anything else.”

After what happened to Wang Lei today, everyone was somewhat tired from the battle. They still had to rest first.

Everyone nodded when they heard this. They each found their places to sleep and began to rest.

Lu Yan also entered a tent and lay on it to rest.

At first, Lu Yan was still relatively awake. He was thinking about the situation in the Yang family village, wanting to find some clues.

However, the more he thought about it, the more tired he became. Perhaps it was because fighting in the day was really too exhausting… After a while, Lu Yan fell asleep.

…

He slept very well. At around nine the next day, Lu Yan opened his eyes and woke up. He stood up and walked out of the tent.

Outside, Qiyue and Li Moqing had already woken up and were talking. When they saw Lu Yan, the two of them greeted him.

However, Li Moqing then frowned slightly. “It’s already past nine. Why haven’t the others woken up? Why are they sleeping so soundly?”

Lu Yan was stunned for a moment. He originally thought that he had slept in and did not expect the others to still be asleep.

Qiyue said, “Could it be that we were too tired from the battle yesterday? After all, there were so many members of the Dark-born Society. It’s still difficult for everyone to fight.”
