Huangfu Chen had lived in the Priest Hall for some time and was familiar with the terrain here. Even without anyone leading the way, he could still find the location of the dungeon.
Wu Ming had been following him in silence.
There were guards outside the dungeon. They looked at Wu Ming and saw that he didn't give them any instructions, so they didn't stop Huangfu Chen.
Huangfu Chen had just walked down the stairs to the dungeon when he vaguely heard a heart-wrenching roar from deep underground. He stopped and turned back to look at Wu Ming.
"Mr. Huangfu, it's better not to continue, or you'll scare yourself," Wu Ming said.
The stairs were very long, and the lights on both sides flickered, making the surroundings look gloomy and scary. Huangfu Chen continued walking down, and the lights became brighter. He saw the entire dungeon. There were many people locked up here, and they were all lying in the corner with empty and desperate eyes.
Murong Ke wasn't among them.
Huangfu Chen recalled the scream he had just heard.
"Where's Murong Ke?" He turned to look at Wu Ming. "Where did you lock him up?"
"He has nothing to do with Mr. Huangfu. Why are you so concerned about his life?" Wu Ming said in a low voice.
"Ahhh!"
Another scream was heard. Huangfu Chen looked at the innermost dark passage and immediately walked over.
Wu Ming frowned even more. He couldn't understand Huangfu Chen. He clearly had the chance to rule the world, but he would rather be a loafer. When Qian Luosha's people attacked the Priest Hall, he had the chance to leave, but he chose to stay.
He really didn't know what he was thinking.
Huang Fuchen ignored Nameless, who was behind him. He walked along the dark tunnel to the end. There was nothing at the end except for a well. Following the lights on both sides, he saw a man with his hands tied inside the well.
Murong Ke!
They actually locked Murong Ke up here.
"Mr. Huangfu, I advise you not to go down." Seeing that Huangfu Chen was going to go down from the other side, Wu Ming had to persuade him. "The well is full of venomous insects. If you go down, you'll definitely be hurt."
"Venomous insects?" Huangfu Chen looked at Wu Ming in shock. "Qi Ruoshui locked Murong Ke up here to feed him venomous insects. What does she want to do?"
Hearing Murong Ke's screams coming from the bottom of the well, Huangfu Chen became more and more furious. Qi Ruoshui must have gone crazy to the extreme. Was she trying to refine Murong Ke into a voodoo?
"Mr. Huangfu, you can't go down." Wu Ming stopped Huangfu Chen.
"Get lost." Huangfu Chen raised his hand and pushed Nameless away.
Wu Ming was stunned. He had always thought that Huang Fuchen only knew some martial arts. He did not expect his inner strength to be so powerful.
Huangfu Chen had already walked to the other side of the stairs. He had a night-luminescent pearl in his hand. When he walked down, he realized that the bottom of the well was full of bugs. Murong Ke's clothes were bitten to the point that it was unbearable to look at them. There was almost no part of his skin that was intact. The blood that flowed out was no longer red but had a hint of black.
This meant that he had been poisoned. Who knew how many bugs had entered his body?
"Murong Ke, are you okay?" Huangfu Chen walked into the crowd of Gu insects. When the insects smelled the fresh scent of a human, they immediately swarmed over. However, they stopped half a step away from Huangfu Chen. They did not dare to take another step forward.
Huangfu Chen took out a black pill and fed it to Murong Ke's mouth. He used his inner strength to help him swallow the pill.
"Ah!" Murong Ke screamed in pain. He felt that the meridians in his body were about to explode. His consciousness gradually became clear, and he could vaguely see the figure in front of him.
The bugs that were biting Murong Ke suddenly escaped from his body and did not dare to approach him.
"Who is it?" Murong Ke's voice was frighteningly hoarse. He had already lost consciousness from the pain. Although the pain was still there, his consciousness was a little clearer.
"Huangfu Chen." Huangfu Chen said in a low voice, "The medicine I fed you can only last for three days. I will find a way to save you in these three days."
Murong Ke had heard of Huangfu Chen, but he had never met him. "Why did you save me?"
"You saved Yao Yao!" Huangfu Chen said softly. "She is my disciple."
"Qi Ruoshui is sinister and vicious. How could she let you save me so easily? She will not stop until she turns me into a Gu." Murong Ke laughed.
Huangfu Chen stuffed another pill into his mouth. "Hang in there. Don't be controlled by the Gu."
"You …" Murong Ke wanted to know what he wanted to do. Why did he think that he could save him?
"Let's not talk so much. I will go up first," Huangfu Chen said in a low voice. He turned around and was about to go up the stairs.
"Where is Yao Yao?" Murong Ke asked in a hoarse voice. The only thing that kept him going was that he still wanted to see Yao Yao again. He wanted to explain to her personally that he had never wanted to hurt her.
How could he bear to kill her?
"She should have left," Huangfu Chen said with his eyes lowered. Huangfu Chen lowered his eyes and said. He knew that Murong Ke came for Yaoyao, but he didn't expect that the famous Thousand Rakshasa Pavilion Master would risk his life for Yaoyao. "There's no news of her."
"Qi Ruoshui said that she was poisoned by the Gu." Murong Ke panted. "She will be fine, right?"
"She will be fine." Even though Huangfu Chen was not sure if Yao Yao was really poisoned by the Gu and if she could be cured, he still firmly promised Murong Ke.
Murong Ke smiled. "That's good."
"Do you think it is worth it for her?" Huangfu Chen could not help but ask.
"It is not a question of whether it is worth it or not," Murong Ke said. He just wanted to see her well.
Huangfu Chen lowered his head and walked up the stairs silently. He saw Wu Ming who was still standing by the well.
Wu Ming looked at him with fear in his eyes. "Those Gu don't dare to bite you."
Huangfu Chen looked at him indifferently. "Where is Qi Ruoshui?"
"The Witch King is not in the Priest Hall," Wu Ming said.
"Where is she?" Huangfu Chen asked coldly.
Wu Ming frowned. "Even if you go to the Witch King, she will not let Murong Ke go."
Huangfu Chen looked at Wu Ming deeply. If Qi Ruoshui was in the Priest Hall, she would definitely meet him. Wu Ming was not willing to reveal her whereabouts, which proved that Qi Ruoshui was indeed not here.
Huangfu Chen carefully thought about where Qi Ruoshui would go. If he guessed correctly, Qi Ruoshui should have left the capital, either to Donglai or Anhe City.
How should he rescue Murong Ke? He had to let the people of Thousand Rakshasa know that he was locked in the dungeon first.
"What did you feed Murong Ke?" Wu Ming frowned and asked.
Huangfu Chen sneered. "If you want to know, why don't you open his mouth and check it yourself?"
