In the evening, the setting sun was like blood.
Wang Yu sat cross-legged in the quiet room. She spat out a mouthful of turbid air and opened her eyes. Her pale face showed a trace of redness.
"I didn't expect that the secret skill would consume so much energy. With my cultivation, I almost couldn't hold on …"
A trace of fear flashed in Wang Yu's eyes. Then she looked up and saw Su Li and Jin Ying standing aside obediently. Their expressions were full of intimacy and reverence. She couldn't help but feel that it was all worth it.
"Bingshu, no matter how you calculate, you will never know how important these two sacrifices are!"
Wang Yu sneered in her heart. With a flash of light in her palm, a giant umbrella and a broken porcelain doll appeared in her hands. The two little girls who had been enchanted trusted her so much that they didn't need to be secretive when taking out these things.
In any case, it was impossible for these two girls to return alive from this trip to the cave abode!
Su Li, who was standing on the side, saw these two things with her eyes flashing slightly.
"Wang Yu is not brainless. She has already thought of a way out …"
The umbrella was a middle-grade concealment magic treasure, which could isolate the detection of tactical matrix. It was a rare thing. The broken porcelain doll was more precious, called Life-substituting Porcelain.
Although the name was exaggerated, it made some sense. As long as a trace of spiritual power was injected into it, it could emit the breath of the caster for a long time to confuse the enemy's detection.
With these two treasures, it was really easy for Wang Yu to escape from Huajian Sect.
Of course, Wang Yu couldn't expect that there would be a fatal flaw in her perfect plan, which was created by herself.
"It's getting late. Let's go."
After arranging everything painfully, Wang Yu took a deep breath, opened the umbrella, and covered Su Li and Jin Ying with it. Then she pinched a gesture casually.
Rumble …
A stone staircase leading downwards appeared on the floor of the quiet room. A strange smell of blood mixed with a strange aura assaulted his nostrils.
Jin Ying's face changed slightly, showing fear. But when she remembered Su Li's instructions, she immediately restrained her expression, held Wang Yu's hand tightly, and followed her down.
Su Li also pretended to be nervous and followed her.
Feeling the strength of the palms on both sides, Wang Yu smiled slightly, with determination in her eyes.
"Both the life-substituting porcelain and the identity of the head of Huajian Sect are huge losses for me. The ancient cave … please don't let me down …"
As they walked, the three of them gradually disappeared from the bottom of the stone staircase, and the mechanism closed again.
In the dark stone path, Su Li staggered a little, as if she couldn't see the road clearly. But her psychic awareness quietly tilted like mercury and searched Wang Yu's secret station.
"The smell of blood is still strong. Over a hundred years, more than a thousand people have died here, and they are all practitioners in Zhuji Realm. If I'm not mistaken, this is the place where Beixiao Liang escaped from …"
Su Li frowned slightly. Seeing such a slaughterhouse-like place and the "torture" mentioned by Beixiao Liang before, she thought of a very annoying practitioner.
Obviously, Wang Yu just took this place as a shortcut to get out of the sect. She walked quickly with the two girls and came out of the adytum in less than ten minutes. She drove the flying sword from a secret exit halfway up the mountain.
Su Li and Jin Ying sat at the end of the flying sword, surrounded by the protective tactical matrix specially prepared by Wang Yu, so they didn't have to worry about being blown down by the strong wind pressure.
Su Li quietly watched the scenery on both sides of the flying sword changing, and the distant memories in her mind gradually returned. Jiuzhou Region … she couldn't be more familiar with it.
Jin Ying looked at the strange scenery under the flying sword blankly. She was young and naturally couldn't have Su Li's knowledge. However, although she was simple, she was also smart. She suddenly understood that she had bet her life on Su Li.
"Su Li won't hurt me …"
Jin Ying cheered herself up and forced back the tears of fear in her eyes. At this moment … there was no room for her to regret.
A day and a half later, Su Li saw that Wang Yu couldn't stop smiling, and knew that the destination was coming.
Seeing the stone forest under the flying sword exuding a faint gloomy atmosphere, she gently pursed her lips.
It turned out that the ancient cave was in this Blackstone River.
The name Blackstone River was given by the practitioners in Jiuzhou Region because they walked in it without seeing the sun all year round. In addition, the stone was dark, so it had such a straightforward name.
Although the name was simple, Blackstone River was one of the most dangerous places in Jiuzhou Region. There were very special stone ghosts wandering in it. They had low intelligence but high strength.
Thinking of this, Su Li felt a vibration of the flying sword. Then it dived down and turned into a red light shooting into the black stone forest.
The bright light in the sky quickly dimmed. When it landed, it had become as dark as the night, and one couldn't see his fingers.
"Master …"
Jin Ying's voice trembled violently. At this moment, she couldn't care less about Su Li's instructions and couldn't help asking for help.
Wang Yu chuckled in her heart. Not only did she not have the slightest doubt, but she felt that this was a normal reaction. As for Su Yue … she was dull in nature, so it was normal that she didn't cry out.
Snap!
A spiritual stone lamp lit up and dispelled the surrounding darkness. Jin Ying saw the two people around her, especially Su Li. She finally calmed down and her fear faded.
"Follow me. It's not dangerous in the stone forest, but it's not something that you two little girls can deal with."
Wang Yu reminded them in a gentle voice. She identified the direction and immediately turned to the sparse forest on the right. Looking at her familiar appearance, it was obviously not the first time for her to come here.
Su Li kept silent and followed her. Suddenly, she felt that Jin Ying held her arm, and the coldness in her eyes eased a little. She gently patted Jin Ying's hand and sent a warm feeling.
Jin Ying felt a little relaxed. She cheered up and followed Su Li.
After an hour, an old man's laughter suddenly came from the forest, "Fairy Hongyu, I've been waiting for you for a long time."
Su Li crossed the last slope, and the view suddenly became clear.
In the protective boundary not far away, there was a camp. There were more than ten people moving in it. The old man who just spoke was standing in front of one of the tents, looking at Wang Yu with a smile.
Seeing the old man, a trace of fear flashed in Wang Yu's eyes, but she smiled like a flower and apologized, "I'm entangled with worldly affairs. Senior Yuan, please don't blame me."
"Oh, Fairy Hongyu, you must be joking. It's not the opening time of the cave yet. As long as you don't miss the important matter, you can come at any time."
The old man responded very kindly. His turbid eyes suddenly turned and stared at Su Li and Jin Ying aggressively. Jin Ying couldn't help but hide behind Su Li. Then the old man seemed to be aware of it and smiled to cover up, "What's wrong with you?
"These two little girls are really beautiful. What a pity …"
Wang Yu chuckled and overshadowed the old man's words. She bowed slightly and said, "Senior Yuan, if there is nothing else important, can you let me go?"
"Oh, I'm so stupid. Come in quickly and don't be discovered by the stone ghosts."
The old man patted his head and quickly stepped aside. Watching Wang Yu and Jin Ying go away, the smile on his face slowly disappeared and he sighed again.
"What a pity …"
But he didn't say what exactly was a pity.
Wang Yu walked into the camp and directly occupied a tent. After slightly tidying up two shops for Su Li and Jin Ying to rest, she couldn't help but feel gloomy when she thought of the smile of the old man surnamed Yuan.
"The opening of the cave is imminent. I hope that old madman doesn't cause any trouble for me …"
Two days later, seeing that the old man surnamed Yuan didn't take any action, Wang Yu was a little relieved. She let Su Li and Jin Ying go out to walk. As sacrifices, they couldn't feel unhappy. It was obviously not a long-term solution to stay in the tent.
"Junior Sister Apprentice, what is this place?"
Walking to the mud road in the middle of the camp, Jin Ying looked around and couldn't help but ask in a low voice when she saw some practitioners who didn't look like good people.
Su Li glanced at her and didn't speak.
"Think about what I told you before."
Hearing the sound, Jin Ying was slightly stunned and then calmed down.
Su Li didn't tell her much, just one sentence, "Stay with me, and you won't be in danger."
After comforting Jin Ying, Su Li inadvertently glanced over the tents. She didn't spread out her divine awareness, but only sensed that there were at least three pneumas of Yuanying Realm.
"Wang Yu is just in Jindan Realm. Why does she have the confidence to cooperate with these people?"
With some doubts in her mind, Su Li continued to walk forward. When she was about to walk to the edge of the boundary, she suddenly stopped and fixed her eyes on a young man who was holding a sword and resting with his eyes closed in front of a tent.
Jin Ying, who was behind her, bumped into Su Li's back and couldn't help but cry out in pain. She rubbed her forehead and also looked over.
It seemed that the young man holding the sword felt the gaze and opened his eyes. When he saw two girls who were obviously in their teens, he was surprised. He hesitated for a moment and didn't intend to meddle in other people's business.
He couldn't even protect himself now, so he didn't have time to care about others.
Seeing the young man's expression change, Su Li turned her eyes and walked directly to the young man.
This action immediately attracted the attention of the old woman in red in the tent. But when she saw that the two girls who came were just in Lianqi Realm, she immediately thought of something. With a smile on her face, she closed her eyes again and ignored them.
"Senior Fellow Apprentice, you look like a friend of mine. May I ask your name?"
When she approached, Su Li hesitated for a moment and asked timidly.
The young man looked cold and didn't intend to answer. But when he saw the two little girls looking at him pitifully, he couldn't help but feel softhearted and sighed, "My surname is Dongfang, and my first name is … Yi."
Dongfang … Sure enough!
Su Li's eyes flashed imperceptibly, but she looked disappointed. She whispered, "You are not Brother Wuxue …"
As soon as she said this, the young man who had been cold immediately breathed heavily. He suddenly stood up and asked impatiently, "Do you know Dongfang Wuxue?"
The voice seemed to be a little louder, and even the old woman in the tent opened her eyes again and looked at Su Li.
