Xuan Yin purposefully picked up a black object under a certain tree and left without delay. The entire process was swift and decisive.
After her departure, Qing Yu silently appeared under that same tree.
"So that's how it is..."
Looking at the dark red dirt under the tree, Qing Yu murmured to himself, "Due to someone either injured or dead having lain here, the bloodstains and the impression left by pressure made me unconsciously overlook this abnormality."
"It truly is 'unable to see the forest for the trees'," Qing Yu said mockingly of himself.
With exceptional perception and eyesight, Qing Yu understood his surroundings perfectly. However, due to the bloodstains and other traces, he did not suspect anything unusual here.
This inadvertent oversight seemed to have caused him to miss some clues.
'Just now, the Image Stone that Xuan Yin took, who could have left it here?' Qing Yu thought as he looked in the direction Xuan Yin had left.
