"Don't be naive. Do you think those people were killed by the adjudicators?"
Along the way, the two of them had seen over a hundred victims. The adjudicators would be too busy to kill all of them. Although the victims were dismembered, the methods used were clearly much cruder. Blood splattered everywhere, and the severed limbs were hung on the trees while others were thrown far away.
The adjudicators dismembered the victims while they were still alive, so there was no need for blood to splatter. Moreover, the Seven Deadly Sins of the Adjudication Organization did not just involve dismemberment. How could it be so coincidental that everyone was killed by the same adjudicator? According to Feng Leizi's observation, those people died in the hands of their enemies or teammates. Some teams might have formed an alliance in advance and plotted behind the scenes.
"Uh, what you said makes sense."
Bi Yun's scalp went numb. Feng Leizi's words did make sense. No matter how powerful the adjudicators were, there were only seven of them, and the two brothers were best at concealment. Before they found their brother Du, it was better to hide first. So many people had died along the way, but the two of them were still fine.
As for Gu Xiaobei, they could not count on him. Although he had broken through to the Void Sea Realm, he was busy hitting on girls and had no time to care about them. Even if he wanted to help, he had to help his brother-in-law, Wu Mingying.
"Where did Mingdong go?"
Wu Lili looked at Wu Mingying, who was standing below, and pulled her skirt in embarrassment. Gu Xiaobei's hands were too slippery, and he always liked to touch her thighs, making her feel embarrassed.
"He said he was busy again, so he asked me to come over first."
Wu Mingying and Wu Mingdong had set off together. But for some reason, only Wu Mingying came to the Tri-Mountain Palace, and Wu Mingdong was nowhere to be seen.
"Don't worry about him. It's good that he didn't come."
Wu Mingdong had never been on good terms with Du Feng, so Gu Xiaobei did not have a good impression of him. Wu Mingying was Wu Lili's younger brother, so he could at least help from the side. If Wu Mingdong came, he would not bother to help him.
Wu Lili thought about it. After all, not every explorer would come to the Tri-Mountain Palace. The Triplet Mountain Mystery Area was a small world. There were mountains, rivers, and even oceans. Many explorers would choose to search for small or hidden treasure spots. The treasures they could find there might not be any less than what they could find here.
Although there were many treasures in the Three Mountain Palaces, there were also many people who came to explore. It was not certain how many treasures each person could obtain. What's more, even if some explorers found treasures, they would be killed by others and end up with nothing. It was better to wander around the periphery and maybe get some benefits.
"Why isn't brother Du here yet? Don't tell me he really didn't come in?"
Bi Yun had been hoping to follow Du Feng and pick up some scraps. Seeing that the Tri-Mountain Palace Hall was about to open, but he was nowhere to be seen, she felt a little anxious.
"Come quickly, who is it?"
Gu Xiaobei could see further away from the tree. Following the direction of his finger, he saw a woman with a veil covering her face rushing over. Others might not be able to recognize her, but a few friends who were familiar with her could tell from her figure that the young woman was Wu Xiaodie.
"That's great. Since she's here, it means that brother Du is here too."
"Yeah, I was really afraid that brother Du would be too busy picking up girls and not come in."
"Pfft, do you think that brother Du is like you?"
Feng Leizi, Gu Xiaobei, and Bi Yun were talking noisily, waiting for Du Feng to show up. Since Wu Xiaodie was here, there was no reason for brother Du not to come.
"Du Feng isn't here?"
When they heard Wu Xiaodie's question, they were all dumbfounded. Originally, they wanted to ask Wu Xiaodie if Du Feng was following them. But since she asked, it meant that she didn't see Du Feng either.
"Isn't he with you?"
"Yeah, the two of you entered the cave together. Didn't you come out together?"
Feng Leizi and Bi Yun were still unwilling to give up and wanted to get to the bottom of it. Wu Xiaodie was forced to narrate everything from the moment the two of them entered the cave, to the Spiritual Energy Hall to practice, and then falling into the strange halo. When they found out that the two of them entered the Tri-Mountain Secret Territory at the last moment, it really scared everyone.
"That means that brother Du also came in, but he didn't land at the entrance?"
Gu Xiaobei grasped the key point in her words. Since Wu Xiaodie didn't land at the entrance, then Du Feng might have been randomly teleported to a place further away. Therefore, it was normal that he couldn't come in time. As long as he wasn't in danger, everyone was relieved.
"Do you guys think that Du Feng encountered an adjudicator?"
Just as everyone was discussing enthusiastically, Wu Mingying suddenly came over and interjected.
"Pfft, can't you say something more auspicious?"
As soon as he said that, he was scolded by his sister, Wu Lili. Everyone was hoping for Du Feng to come back safely, but he just had to say that he encountered an adjudicator.
"Don't get too worked up. Even if he encountered an adjudicator, brother Du will be fine."
This wasn't Du Feng's first time fighting an adjudicator. His old friends from Stony Plain City had confidence in him.
Creak … Creak …
Just then, a creaking sound came from the Tri-Mountain Palace's gate. The two huge iron gates slowly opened to the sides.
"The gates are open. Hurry up and come in."
Many explorers rushed over excitedly when they saw the gates open. Because the two iron gates were especially large, only a small gap was needed to allow several people to pass through. Therefore, some explorers rushed in without waiting for the gates to fully open.
In just a short while, more than a dozen people had already slipped in. At this time, the iron gates were still opening to the sides and didn't seem to have any intention of stopping.
"Come, let's go in as well."
The first batch of explorers that went in were fine, but the remaining people were getting anxious. Whoever entered the Tri-Mountain Palace first would be the first to find good treasures. If they couldn't be the first batch to enter, they would at least have to catch up with the second batch. It just so happened that the gap between the gates opened wider, so the second batch of explorers also wanted to rush in.
Roar! Roar!
They had just rushed to the door, but before they could enter, they heard two loud roars. Then, they saw the explorers that went in earlier flying out one by one.
Plop! Plop!
