Mang Yue's expression was slightly solemn as she asked.
"Yes."
Ye Feng's brows slightly raised as he realized that there might be a problem. He said, "What's the matter? Did you discover anything?"
"I have been discussing with my father for a long time. My father guessed that the evil Qi might have something to do with the forbidden land. I came back to look for you and just happened to find that you were not here. Everyone followed your footsteps and found that you are here."
Mang Yue's expression was solemn. The evil Qi could be found in the forbidden land, and they were worried about Ye Feng because of Ye Feng's reckless entry.
"I'm fine, but this forbidden area is indeed a little strange. I heard some unusual sounds when I was cultivating. That's why I followed him all the way here, and confirmed that the sound came from the cave in the forbidden area."
"But you and uncle, why do you think the evil Qi might be related to the forbidden area?"
Ye Feng was a little curious.
"We eliminated many possibilities. In the end, we found that all the people who became evil had one thing in common."
Mang Yue pointed at the forbidden area, "They are all guards of the forbidden area. They rotate once every seven days."
Ye Feng's heart moved slightly when he heard this. All the clansmen who had turned into Evil Spirits were guards of the forbidden area. This way, it was almost certain that the evil Qi was definitely related to the forbidden area.
"No wonder..."
Ye Feng let out a breath of foul air. After that, he looked at Mang Yue and asked, "Then what are you going to do?"
"Father is going to gather all the guards of the forbidden area and ask them about this matter, and see if they can find any clues about it."
Mang Yue explained.
"It's a method."
Ye Feng squinted his eyes and said, "Can I watch from the sidelines?"
"Of course. Father had planned to ask you guys to come with us. Maybe we can see some problems."
Not long after that, the few guards that Ye Feng had seen before walked out of the forbidden area. They knew what had happened and knew that they had misunderstood Ye Feng. Each of them smiled and nodded, then they headed to the main hall of the patriarch.
When Ye Feng and the others arrived, the main hall was already filled with people. Mang Yong and the ten elders were sitting on top of the hall.
Ye Feng and the others sat beside the elders and looked down at the people of the clan. There were a total of 120 guards in the forbidden area. Each of them was a small team, and they would rotate once every seven days.
The few guards Ye Feng had seen just now were the first day they were guarding the forbidden area. When they went there, Mang Yong sent the rest of his people to guard the forbidden area to ensure that nothing unexpected would happen.
"Everyone is here, let's talk about the matter."
Mang Yong didn't waste any time and directly dragged out all of his guesses, asking if the guards of the forbidden area had encountered any unusual phenomenon or had any guesses. All of them could be said.
Hearing this, the 120 guards of the forbidden area excitedly discovered that there were indeed many speculations and discoveries in the caves where strange sounds could be heard.
However, the caves were forbidden areas after all, and none of the guards of the forbidden areas had stepped into them. As such, what was the problem with the forbidden areas? They had no idea either.
These guards seemed to be interested in this matter, but there was one person who acted strangely and attracted Ye Feng's attention.
"It's him?"
Ye Feng raised his eyebrows slightly. This was a young man with bright eyes and red hair guarding the forbidden area. He was one of the people who had been infected by the evil energy. Luckily, he didn't become an Evil Envoy and was saved by Ye Feng.
At this moment, the young guard had a complicated expression on his face. With a trace of shame and panic, he quietly hid behind his companion who was enthusiastically speaking.
"What's your name?"
Ye Feng suddenly asked. The scene fell silent. Everyone looked in the direction Ye Feng was looking at.
The young guard was hiding behind a bald guard. At this moment, all eyes were focused on him. The bald guard was stunned. He thought that the guard was talking about him, but he didn't realize that the person behind him had become stiff.
"Me?"
The bald guard pointed at himself in confusion.
"No, the one behind you, come out."
Ye Feng's tone was indifferent.
"I..."
The young guard struggled to walk out and looked at Ye Feng. "My name is Mang Wen."
"You seem to know something. Why don't you tell me?"
Ye Feng nodded slightly, but his eyes were locked on the young guard.
At this moment, Ji Sheng, Mang Yong, and the elders all saw some clues because the young guard avoided his gaze, as if he had done something wrong.
"Tell me, what do you know!?"
Mang Yong roared, and Mang Wen's body trembled as he fell to his knees.
"Patriarch, I was wrong, I was wrong!"
Ye Feng originally thought that it would take some effort to get Mang Wen to speak the truth, but after seeing this scene, he knew that it was unnecessary.
The honest and honest Mang Human Clan could no longer bear the suffering in their hearts. At this moment, they had told him everything that they had done.
"It's me. It's me who sneaked into the forbidden area while I was guarding the forbidden area. It's me..."
Mang Wen suddenly cried with his head held high. "I'm sorry that I harmed my clansmen."
"What's going on?"
Mang Yong's pupils contracted, his expression exceptionally ugly.
The forbidden area of the Mang Human Clan had existed since the ancient times. The first rule of the Mang Human Clan was never to enter the forbidden area.
This was because there was a great fear hidden within the forbidden area. Once one stepped into the forbidden area, one would be able to release endless dangers, bringing disaster to the Mang Human Clan and the world.
And now, Mang Wen had actually broken into the forbidden area. One must know that this kid was a young man whom Mang Yong admired. He had paid a lot of attention to him and knew that he had inherited the qualities of the Mang Human Clan. Otherwise, Mang Wen wouldn't have allowed him to guard the forbidden area.
What was the reason for Mang Wen to do such a disgraceful thing? As a guard, how could he disregard his own duty and enter the forbidden area?
"It's because of Cai Luan..."
Mang Wen held his head in pain and said, "Cai Luan is the daughter of the Fifth Elder of the Zhuang Human Clan next door. Cai Luan and I know each other and love each other, but my talent is too poor. I'm only at the fourth level of the God Stage now, and Cai Luan is already at the fifth level..."
"I know, with my talent and strength, Cai Luan's father will never take a liking to me. That's why I'm suffering every day."
Speaking up to this point, Mang Wen's expression surged with hatred. "However, I didn't expect that Cai Luan's father would actually be very friendly to me. He personally met me and even told me that he knew a way to increase my talent and strength. This way, he would be able to match Cai Luan and be with Cai Luan forever."
"Fifth Elder of the Zhuang Human Clan..."
Ye Feng narrowed his eyes. The other party's identity had taken the initiative to meet Mang Wen. It was obvious that he was plotting something. More importantly, during the process of Ye Feng and the others rushing to the tribe of the Mang Human Clan, there was a tribe of the Zhuang Human Clan in the tribe that had been corroded by the evil Qi.
The Fifth Elder of the Strong Human Clan was none other than Deacon, who had been killed by Ye Feng.
"Cai Luan's father told me that the ancestral teachings of the clan's forbidden area are lies. There is no great terror in the forbidden area. Instead, it is filled with natural treasures."
Mang Wen's face was full of regret. "The reason the clan publicized the great terror in the forbidden grounds was because the clan head and elders wanted to enjoy the natural treasures alone...
If I... took advantage of the time when I was on duty and snuck into the forbidden land to refine the treasures, my talent would definitely be improved, and my strength would be greatly enhanced. "
