After just a few breaths of time, the figures of Zhuo Mengzhen and Zhang Yi appeared in the hall.
"Hubby" "Master"
A hint of confusion flashed in their eyes, still unsure of what had happened.
However, from Liu Yu's unprecedented stern tone, they knew something significant must have occurred, and even though they were in the middle of their cultivation, they disregarded potential consequences and forcefully interrupted their retreat.
"Things have developed suddenly. Pack your belongings immediately and leave with me from Divine Capital City."
Liu Yu spoke with a serious expression, his hands clasped behind his back, showing no intention of explanation. The details could be discussed on the road; it was best to leave as soon as possible.
"Yes."
Even though they still did not understand what had happened, out of a long-standing trust, Zhuo Mengzhen and Zhang Yi immediately turned around to take action.
Since they were only temporarily residing and had no plans for a long stay, the items they had left in the mansion were not many.
Additionally, as cultivators, they acted quickly; in less than a quarter of an hour, they had finished packing.
"Hubby (Master), we are ready."
In less than a quarter of an hour, the two reappeared in the hall, their expressions serious as they reported their situation.
All their belongings had been packed into storage bracelets or bags.
Liu Yu did not speak. His spiritual consciousness, which extended for one hundred and twenty miles, had already spread out and was slowly scanning every corner of the mansion.
He carefully checked to ensure that nothing was overlooked, especially items that could carry traces, such as hair strands, nails, etc.
He was well-versed in the "Summary of Demonic Cultivation" and considered himself an expert in tracking, hence he was very sensitive to these aspects.
While packing, he had already reminded the two to be cautious.
The mysterious and strange secret arts of the Central Domain were countless, including divine abilities related to "divination" and "prediction."
However, with the spiritual treasure "Sword of Ruin" to conceal them, as long as the two remained by his side, they did not need to worry about being discovered.
Though not leaving behind any traceable items did not guarantee that they wouldn't be tracked, it was certainly better than doing nothing at all.
As Liu Yu's spiritual consciousness scanned slowly, he meticulously checked inside and outside, and indeed found nothing overlooked, nodding lightly in satisfaction.
It seemed that under his influence, the two had also paid special attention to this aspect.
"Time is of the essence; we must set off immediately!"
Liu Yu said in a deep voice.
After saying this, he took the lead and walked out of the mansion.
As for the control token for the mansion's formation, it had already been stored in the Immortal Abode world. During the earlier quarter of an hour of packing, he had conducted an emergency communication with Zhang Ziping.
He had already fled and had no time to retrieve the token; it was uncertain whether he would return to Divine Capital, thus the token no longer mattered.
At this moment, still thinking about these assets would only be a trap for oneself.
Such a simple truth was, of course, understood by Zhang Ziping.
...
The spacious and clean street was bustling with people coming and going; a man, a woman, and a youth blended in seamlessly, hardly drawing any attention.
It was broad daylight, and the street was filled with throngs of people, various shouts of vendors coming from all directions, presenting a scene of vibrancy and liveliness.
Perhaps due to the great distance from Divine Capital City to the southern border, news had not yet reached them in time. Liu Yu walked along without any issues, encountering no obstacles whatsoever.
His acute spiritual perception, far surpassing cultivators of the same realm, did not detect any signs of being monitored.
"Hubby, what exactly happened?"
On their hurried way to the teleportation hall, Zhuo Mengzhen couldn't help but ask through sound transmission.
