"Thankfully, we awakened early. Otherwise … Sigh!" Zhou Jun said to Wang Tong with a look of relief.
Wang Tong remained silent and ignored his disciple.
"Why? Master, you find it … inappropriate? " Zhou Jun was indeed very smart. He was very observant and could quickly adjust his state of mind and train of thought.
Wang Tong glanced at Zhou Jun and said in a deep voice, "Jun 'er …"
Zhou Jun was slightly taken aback. In his memory, although his master and him were like father and son, he had always been dignified and rarely had such moments of warmth.
"Master … What's wrong?" Zhou Jun looked at Wang Tong carefully.
Wang Tong hesitated for a moment before saying, "I'm a little regretful that I fought for the right to enter the Sinkhole for you."
"Ah? Why? " Zhou Jun naturally did not think that his master had any other intentions. He must have said that because he was worried about his safety.
"Master feels that Young Master Chu's words make sense." In front of his most beloved disciple, Wang Tong did not hide anything. He said directly, "Even though the sect master has chosen to draw a clear line with Young Master Chu due to the circumstances, I feel that Young Master Chu's words make sense. This Sinkhole … I don't want you to go there."
"Master … I think I'll be fine," Zhou Jun said. However, even he did not have much confidence.
This was because his previous fervor had long been extinguished by Chu Mo's cold water. Now that he had calmed down and thought about it carefully, he did feel fear.
The four major sects were so powerful and stood at the pinnacle of this world, but they had no way of conquering that land beyond the heavens. He was a warrior at the Golden Stone realm. What made him feel that he would definitely obtain that luck?
"Then … I won't go?" Zhou Jun looked at the silent master and said hesitantly.
Speaking of which, he was really very indignant.
"If you are really indignant, you can go …" Wang Tong pondered for a long time before looking up at Zhou Jun and saying, "However, you must follow closely behind Young Master Chu!"
"Ah? This … Isn't this going against the sect leader's wishes? "Zhou Jun looked at his master dumbfounded.
Wang Tong shook his head. "Although the Sect Leader had no choice but to draw a clear line between himself and Young Master Chu, he did not choose to oppose Young Master Chu. Similarly, you are only a young disciple of the West Sea Sect. Even if others have their opinions about your actions, what can they do to you if you refuse to admit it?"
The corner of Zhou Jun's mouth twitched. He looked at his own master in disbelief. He couldn't believe that such words would come out of his usually stern master's mouth.
"What the hell are you looking at!" Wang Tong suddenly became angry and scolded, "Get lost!"
I was clearly looking at you, Master … Zhou Jun thought to himself as he ran away with a grin. In his heart, however, he felt warm. He knew that his master had done all this for his sake.
The next day, it was finally time to enter the Sinkhole.
Everyone got up early in the morning. They gathered at a small square in the center of the town.
What was interesting was that most of the disciples of the four major sects had solemn expressions on their faces. However, the other sects, such as Longevity Heaven, Swords Sect, Tianyuan Sect, Sky Beyond Heavens, as well as the young disciples of West Sea Sect, Grand Wilderness Sect, and Green Mountain Sect, were all excited.
The Sinkhole.
It had been famous for a long time, but this was the first time they were so close to it!
Therefore, even though the legends said that the Sinkhole was fraught with dangers, those who had never entered it would not think that it was a truly dangerous place.
On the side of the four major sects, each sect had about forty people entering the Sinkhole.
In addition to the one hundred and forty people decided by the sect meeting, there were more than three hundred people in the town square, ready to set off.
Only Huang Liang was left by Chu Mo's side. As Big Rooster was unable to enter the Sinkhole, he could only stay in the town to wait for news.
This made Chu Mo look a little lonely and even pitiful.
The other sects had a large number of people gathered together, but there were only two people on his side. It looked like he was isolated.
In fact, he was also isolated.
Hua Xiaoya looked at Chu Mo and Huang Liang from afar. Although she knew the cause and effect, she still felt bad. The ones who felt even worse than her were Miao Yiniang and Shen Xingxue, who were in the Flying Immortal camp. Although Shen Aoshuang had patiently explained to the two girls for a long time, and although Shen Aobing, who never bothered to explain, had also told them about the negotiations with the Flying Immortal for the first time. But the two girls still felt extremely sad.
It felt like a betrayal!
Although they knew that was not the case, the two girls' eyes reddened when they saw only Huang Liang standing alone beside Chu Mo.
This scene, in the eyes of the others, confirmed a rumor — the four major sects were really going to make a move on Chu Mo!
"Chu Mo is finished. This time, he will die without a doubt."
"I didn't expect him to have the guts to enter the Sinkhole. This is quite unexpected."
"Nonsense. Is it possible for him not to enter now? I heard that there are a total of 60 to 70 Connate experts from the four major sects here. Even if Chu Mo wants to escape, can he? "
"That's true. He's basically walking into a trap and playing himself into it."
Many people in the crowd were discussing in low voices.
When they looked at Chu Mo, most of them were gloating over his misfortune. In particular, the disciples of the Longevity Sky and the Four Paths Sword Sect were all very happy about what had happened to Chu Mo.
"Alright, everyone is here. Let's cut to the chase!" A tall man stood on a platform in the middle of the square. No one knew which sect he was from, but he was in charge of mobilizing the people before they entered the Sinkhole.
"In two hours, you will enter the legendary Sinkhole. I'm not trying to scare you. The Sinkhole is very dangerous. Remember, nothing is more important than your lives. You will be the winner if you come back alive. Remember, you are not allowed to kill each other in there. If I find out, then … you will be hunted down by the four major sects! " As the man spoke, he glanced at Chu Mo and continued, "When the time comes, it won't be good if you implicate your friends and family!"
Many people even began to look at Chu Mo with pity in their eyes. It was obvious that they wanted to push Chu Mo to the brink of death! They were clearly going to deal with him, yet they still threatened him … The four major sects were really too shameless!
Those who still had a sense of justice in their hearts were disgusted by this person.
The man on the platform seemed to understand this as well, so he did not say anything else. After giving a few more instructions, he jumped down and led the crowd out of the array.
The so-called door to the Sinkhole was just a ball of blue light. If they saw it anywhere else, they would definitely not know the use of this ball of light.
Since they were already here, no one said anything else. They turned back to take a deep look at the people who had come to see them off, then one by one … entered in a single file.
Chu Mo and Huang Liang were deliberately pushed to the back.
Huang Liang was a little angry, but Chu Mo was very calm. There was even a hint of mockery on his face.
Finally, it was their turn. Chu Mo turned back and looked meaningfully at the group in the distance. Then, he suddenly grinned.
He turned and entered.
