Chapter 1997: Unforeseen Event (3)

“Sigh. If Xiao Wu had hidden some of her contempt toward Ranmil, things wouldn’t have gotten this far.” Jun Linyun shook his head.
“Forget it. That would never happen.” Feng Xun smiled bitterly. “That’s what Xiao Wu is like. Once she has enough power, she’ll take her revenge right away and never wait until later.”
Jun Linyun said, “I can only hope that my instinct is wrong and that Ranmil won’t be so heartless.”
Feng Xun glanced at Jun Linyun.
“I have a feeling that your instinct is quite accurate.”
Jun Linyun asked, “Why are you so sure?”
Feng Xun said, “Ranmil was so perfect at first. She was warm-hearted, kind and innocent. Someone like her won’t be able to keep up the act in a critical moment like this.
“Once she showed her true self, she became vicious and vile. That lovely girl was nowhere to be found.” Feng Xun shook his head. “She stopped pretending, so…
“Quickly!” He suddenly cried out.
He seemed to have remembered something very important.
Meanwhile, Feng Wu was headed for the pool where Qiuling was.
Earlier, she had sent Qiuling into that pool so that she could obtain an Ultimate Spiritual Body.
When she arrived, she saw Qiuling lying motionless in the pool.
Around her, the ghosts were all screaming.
“Qiuling! Qiuling!” Feng Wu tried to wake her up, but when she touched her, her hand trembled involuntarily.
That was the fluctuation of spiritual essence!
Qiuling had succeeded!
Right now, she had a genuine Ultimate Spiritual Body!
“This is great!” Tears welled up in Feng Wu’s eyes.
Only she knew how badly Qiuling wanted to cultivate and to keep up with her.
“You’ll always be with me. I won’t leave you behind.”
Feng Wu stroked Qiuling’s hair. To her, Qiuling had always been like a big sister.
“Qiuling, you’re only a junior Spiritual Grandmaster now, but soon, the world will know your talent!” Feng Wu took a deep breath. She knew that it wasn’t time to celebrate yet.
If she didn’t get the two of them out in time, they would die here.
“Let’s go!”
Feng Wu ran toward the exit with Qiuling on her back.
As she ran —
Stones fell like heavy rain. Her head would crack open if any of them hit her.
Feng Wu needed to be extremely careful to dodge them.
Meanwhile. she had to keep an eye on the ground.
There were cracks all over the ground.
Some were deeper and longer, and others were shallower and shorter.
Right now, Feng Wu looked like an elf walking in the dark. Even with a person on her back, she still moved as nimbly as a cat.
It seemed easy, but only Feng Wu knew how much energy it cost her to stay safe.
Whoosh —
When Feng Wu reached the exit with Qiuling —
“Xiao Wu! Quickly!” Feng Xun held the stone door open with both hands and shouted at Feng Wu.
Feng Wu saw his hands.
Blue veins popped on the back of them, and his knuckles had turned white.
The door was closing!
