At the same time, while Kong Yang and others were spreading the news of Ye Ling's location, Ye Ling, Chi Ling, and Yin Mei were rushing toward an ancient town on a desolate mountain 30,000 miles away.
The trees on the mountain ridge were extremely tall and ancient, and the vines were like clouds, allowing the three of them to travel without being noticed.
Compared to a month ago, the three of them were now in a rather sorry state. Their faces were stained with blood because they were chased by the Black Heavenly Eagle clan as well as other clans along the way.
Due to the slave mark on Ye Ling, the experts of the Black Heavenly Eagle clan were able to guess Ye Ling's vague position and determine his direction.
That was why their whereabouts had been discovered.
Moreover, among the three of them, there seemed to be some subtle fluctuations, which surprised them and made them a little confused.
It was as if someone was sending Ye Ling's exact location to everyone.
This was the main reason why the three of them had spent all their time avoiding the pursuit of their chasers.
However, Ye Ling was able to make a breakthrough in his cultivation by chance. He even found some good things along the way.
Such good luck caused Chi Ling to be a little speechless.
On the contrary, she and Yin Mei encountered many dangerous situations. They were physically and mentally exhausted along the way and they were almost seriously injured many times.
They didn't have the same good luck as Ye Ling. They only found some relatively good herbs.
Apart from that, they didn't find anything.
Instead, they suffered many injuries.
Chi Ling was a very loyal and trustworthy person. Since she had promised Ye Ling to accompany him, she would not go back on her promise so easily.
However, she couldn't understand why they were always found. No matter where Ye Ling took them to hide, they would be found.
She suspected that there was something on Ye Ling's body that allowed the other party to track the three of them.
But Ye Ling didn't believe her at all when she said this.
There was nothing Chi Ling could do about it. Ye Ling had let her down.
"Old turtle, I have a feeling that the cave is located in the ancient town ahead…"
At this moment, Ye Ling's face showed a faint sense of excitement as he communicated with the old turtle inside the pendant.
His feeling was quite strong. He had managed to avoid many dangers and even gained some benefits by relying on this feeling.
"Old turtle, why am I found by those creatures no matter where I hide every time?"
Ye Ling asked another question.
He was very frustrated by this fact. Chi Ling had mentioned that he might have something on his body that allowed those creatures to find him.
At that time, Ye Ling had ignored it because he asked the old turtle and learned that those creatures could only perceive his vague location and they could not determine his true location.
So why was he found by those creatures every time?
Ye Ling even wondered if Chi Ling was deliberately revealing his whereabouts.
He also suspected Yin Mei, but Yin Mei had suffered the most injuries along the way. Right now, she looked so tired and pale that he couldn't bring himself to doubt her.
Furthermore, he truly trusted her.
From her previous actions, he understood that she was an incredibly strong woman deep down in her heart.
Even in the face of Gu Changge's oppression in the sect, she dared to resist him.
In addition, Ye Ling believed in Yin Mei's affection for him.
However, it wasn't easy for him to suspect Chi Ling either… After all, Chi Ling was his old friend, and she was the someone who chose to believe him after he was framed as the inheritor of demonic arts.

At this moment, the old turtle's voice also reached Ye Ling's ears, making his head buzz.
"This situation can only mean that one of them is definitely suspicious. Ye Ling, you should be careful and make a decision based on your own judgment."
The old turtle's words caused Ye Ling to fall into silence.
In fact, he had also guessed it himself, but he was unwilling to accept this situation.
Among the two of them, one of them had chosen to betray him.
"Old turtle, I want to hear your opinion." Ye Ling asked with a serious expression.
"My statement on this matter will exclude personal emotions and I will try to be more subjective. You can listen to it, but in the end, the final decision is yours." The old turtle inside the pendant thought for a while and slowly said.
Ye Ling nodded and said, "Go ahead and tell me. Old turtle, I believe what you say."
"In my opinion, Chi Ling is the biggest suspect, while Yin Mei is very unlikely to betray you. If the person who betrayed you was Yin Mei, then what are her intentions? This is actually very hard to say. After all, you were the one who heroically saved her at that time. Otherwise, it would not have been possible for you to cross paths with her."
"In that case, it would be impossible for you to bring her to this place. Her being here is nothing more than a coincidence."
The old turtle opened his mouth and analyzed the whole situation based on his own judgment without the slightest emotions.
Upon hearing these words, Ye Ling fell silent.
In fact, he also knew this.
What intentions could Yin Mei have against him? Logically speaking, it was he who coveted Yin Mei's beauty instead.
If he hadn't saved her in the beginning, she would not have come with him in the first place.
It was only a coincidence.
If Yin Mei deliberately designed it, then it would be too terrible.
Most importantly, Ye Ling suspected that the inheritor of Demonic art was actually Gu Changge, who Yin Mei had offended.
Both of them were in the same situation.
"Go ahead, old turtle." Ye Ling said with a serious expression on his face.
"On the other hand, Chi Ling is very suspicious. Since the very beginning, she has firmly believed in you and even said that she found someone to help you wash away the suspicion of being the inheritor of demonic art… As she was willing to help you, I had nothing to say."
"However, someone is revealing your tracks right now, which is extremely suspicious. What's more, Chi Ling should be aware that you are the successor of the Ancient Heavenly Lord of Reincarnation. Her goal was already very clear when she followed you."
The old tortoise continued to speak and mentioned all the things that it thought were suspicious.
Maybe Chi Ling even knew Gu Changge's true identity.
After all, Ye Ling had repeatedly warned her to be wary of Gu Changge, but she was completely unconcerned.
These things made her the biggest suspect. After all, they were separated from each other for a while and who knew what she was thinking?
Ye Ling nodded. These words made his heart heavy.
He could see the reason behind the old turtle's words.
