White Lotus turned her neck as if she felt a little stiff and numb. She didn't stop because of this, but continued to walk forward in the tunnel in front of her.
The tunnel was abnormally quiet, and her footsteps seemed to be as silent as the legendary cat steps.
After walking for a while, Bai Lian seemed to have thought of something and turned around to look. As expected, the tall black dog, Ah-Tu, was still following behind her. However, it seemed like there were pads of meat under its feet as well, every step it took was silent.
White Lotus looked at Atsu and suddenly smiled. "We look a little scary now. Don't tell me we'll fight each other before we ambush others?"
Atsu didn't seem to understand White Lotus's words. It raised its head and sniffed the air a few times, then continued to walk forward.
White Lotus shrugged and continued to walk forward with Atsu. After walking through the long tunnel, they finally saw the exit.
It was so quiet outside that it was a little scary. White Lotus and Atsu didn't directly walk out of the exit. Instead, they leaned against the stone wall at the entrance of the cave, and then secretly poked their heads out to take a look.
The dome of the huge cave had a big hole, and the underground city that hadn't seen the light of day for many years was finally exposed to the outside world. However, the sunshine didn't come because the sky was covered by the blood clouds.
Everything was gloomy and very depressing. But in comparison, the underground city seemed to be a little brighter than the world above. Light beams rising from the houses and streets could be seen everywhere, illuminating the surroundings. Although they didn't know the purpose of these light beams, it seemed to be more lively than before.
Apart from that, this place was completely empty. There was nothing out of the ordinary. However, the silence of the entire underground cavern was the strangest thing about it.
White Lotus retracted her head, looked at Atsu on the other side of the tunnel, and said in a low voice, "You go and take a look first."
Atsu looked around for a while, then retracted its head, and then glanced at White Lotus. Although it still couldn't speak the human language, the contempt in this black dog's eyes was very obvious.
"Hmph." White Lotus snorted softly, but she didn't show much disappointment. She probably already knew this result. She just looked down at the large houses and city below, and then looked up at the blood moon and dark clouds that were vaguely visible outside the huge hole high above. She couldn't help but frown.
After a while, she could be heard whispering to herself, "Just a little more, just a little more …"
Black Dog looked up at the beautiful girl with some surprise, only to see White Lotus lowering her head and muttering to herself. Her expression was solemn, and her eyes were suddenly different from before. They became sharp and gloomy, as if the temperament of her body had suddenly changed.
Atsu was a little surprised, and there was suddenly a little more vigilance in its eyes. It stood up, and when it was about to put on a bit of a guard, it suddenly saw White Lotus's body tremble violently, and a trace of incomparable pain flashed across her beautiful face. Her muscles twisted as if something had twisted in her mind at that moment, causing her extreme pain.
The next moment, the expression on White Lotus's face suddenly became blank again. She held her head with both hands, gently patted it a few times, and then looked up at Atsu.
Atsu's eyes were filled with shock.
White Lotus looked at Atsu for a while, then smiled. She stretched out a white finger, put it vertically to her lips, and whispered to Atsu, "Don't tell anyone."
At that moment, she smiled sweetly, and there was a little indifference in her smile. Her white skin and red lips contrasted with each other, like a painting carved in this cold cave.
…
"Boom …"
Suddenly, a sound came from a distant high place, like a rumbling thunder, causing the world to shake and echo.
White Lotus and Atsu both turned their heads and looked. The place where the sound came from was not underground, but in the vast sky outside the hole.
A round blood moon, unknowingly moving directly above the hole, or perhaps it had never gone far, but the sea of blood and dark clouds that originally covered it had dispersed.
A ray of moonlight, a dark red and deep moonlight, fell from the sky, directly into this underground world. Although the blood moon was now hanging high in the sky, and was much farther away than when it was hidden in this underground cave, but for some reason, the moonlight that fell at this moment seemed to be brighter than all the other lights in the past. Like a sharp sword, it broke through the sky, with an invisible whistling sound, and instantly fell in a place in this underground city.
"Boom!"
The ground shook, and sand and stones flew. At least five or six houses around the blood moon were suddenly crushed by a huge force, and then turned into ashes.
And in the smoke and dust, from a collapsed wall, White Lotus and Atsu suddenly saw from afar, there were still a few figures standing in the blood moon's light.
Strangely, although the houses in the periphery were instantly destroyed by the sudden attack of the blood moon, the interior of the blood moon, which was supposed to be the most dangerous and terrifying place, didn't suffer too much damage. It seemed like the few people were in a small house.
White Lotus even vaguely saw a small pavilion in the blood moon's light. There was a tall and sturdy bald man, and another man standing beside him. And outside the small pavilion, there were two other blurry figures.
It was also at this moment that White Lotus suddenly felt her heart skip a beat.
The unremarkable man standing in the pavilion, who had been silent all this time, suddenly turned his head and looked in her direction.
That's right, none of the other people who looked like they were overflowing with auras noticed her. Only this unremarkable man, who looked a lot worse than the other three, suddenly looked in her direction.
That gaze was calm, without any murderous intent, surprise, or pity, as if it did not have any color of emotion. White Lotus slowly retracted her body and leaned her back against the stone wall. After a while, the corner of her mouth twitched.
"Interesting," she said softly.
…
Lu Chen turned his head. It looked as if he had turned his head casually because his neck was stiff, and then he continued to look at Perfected Lord Tianlan.
This damn baldy still looked calm, as if he was not aware that he was surrounded by three Perfected Lords of the same level as him and was about to be beaten up.
He just looked at Perfected Lord Tiehu, reached into his pocket, and began to take something out with a smile.
Perfected Lord Tiehu and Perfected Lord Guang Bo's eyes immediately fell on his hand. Before he took out the thing, a green light full of vitality was already gushing out.
