“Evildoer, I’m sorry that I arrived too late.”
Gu Ruoyun lowered her eyelids and her eyes filled with remorse. If she had not asked the evildoer to go find the Sorceror’s Enchantment Blossom, he would not have run into such peril.
Suddenly, Zuo Shangchen seemed to remember something and he pulled Gu Ruoyun to quickly run towards the cave’s entrance as if some sort of fearsome wild beast was in the cave…
Crash!
Just as they reached the cave’s entrance, the place collapsed and blocked their way out.
Zuo Shangchen roared in fury. He behaved as if he had gone mad and gathered his spiritual energy in his fist before punching the blocked entrance over and over again! Sweat rolled down his entire body and mixed with his blood. It caused his peach-pink robes to stick onto his body.
“Zuo Shangchen!”
Gu Ruoyun was shaken for a moment before she quickly threw her arms around Zuo Shangchen. “Don’t be rash, the cave entrance has only collapsed. Let me try. Perhaps I might be able to smash the rocks in our way.”
Zuo Shangchen shook his head and grabbed Gu Ruoyun’s hand tightly. He wanted to say something but when he glanced at the man who had followed Gu Ruoyun, his entire body shuddered.
“There’s no need to worry. I’m here. Nothing is going to happen.”
Gu Ruoyun grabbed Zuo Shangchen’s hand instead as her delicate face lit up with a smile. Her eyes were filled with confidence and resolution.
“I’ve told you that I’ll bring you home. I will definitely take you away from this place!”
Zuo Shangchen’s eyes filled with even more anxiety. He wanted to speak but could not say a word. He could only look at Gu Ruoyun meaningfully and hoped that she could understand what he was trying to convey.
Of course, Gu Ruoyun understood the evildoer’s meaningful glances.
However, she still wants to pretend as if she knows nothing at all at this moment and walked towards the rock wall. She gathered powerful energy into her fist before she smashed the rock wall with a bang.
Thump!
The entire cave shook from the impact of her fist. Only a small crack had formed in the rock wall but even so, it gave the group hope…
“Yun’er.” The man slowly walked in front to face Gu Ruoyun and smiled at her. “These rocks have existed since ancient times, they are so solid that no one can break through them. We’d better think of another way out.”
His eyes darted around for a moment before he suddenly smiled.
“Oh, that’s right, you can use the Ancient Divine Pagoda! If we use the Ancient Divine Pagoda, perhaps we might be able to break these rocks apart.”
The Ancient Divine Pagoda?
Gu Ruoyun laughed icily in her heart. Looks like you can’t hide your fox tail anymore! This man had masqueraded as Qianbei Ye all because of the Ancient Divine Pagoda.
She shook her head at his suggestion and replied, “I’m temporarily unable to utilize the Ancient Divine Pagoda.”
“Why?” The man frowned and questioned.
“I need to work with Zixie if I want to use the Ancient Divine Pagoda. However, Zixie is now in a deep slumber and I can’t use the Ancient Divine Pagoda on my own. Perhaps we would have to wait for Zixie to awaken here.”
This answer was, of course, a lie!
If she wanted to mobilize the Ancient Divine Pagoda, she could summon it whenever she wished. However… She does not want to bring it out in front of this man.
The man’s expression slowly turned gloomy but he soon recovered his previously tender air. He stared gently at Gu Ruoyun.
“What about the Nine Emperors? If you could use the Nine Emperors, perhaps we might be able to break these rocks.”
Gu Ruoyun stared at the man in astonishment, “Xiao Ye, what’s gotten into you? Why are you so urgently hoping that I would use the Ancient Divine Pagoda and the Nine Emperors? Besides, based on your powers, breaking these rocks shouldn’t be a problem, right?”
