None of them was determined to pursue an outcome, but they understood each other’s feelings.
Zhou Zhi was waiting for an opportunity, and so was Su Xiaolu.
On the 20th of June, Zhou Zhi arrived.
This time, he only had Jin Si by his side. When he saw Su Xiaolu, Zhou Zhi smiled. “Xiaolu, long time no see.”
Jin Si was already old. He smiled at Su Xiaolu and said, “Miss Su, long time no see. You haven’t changed at all.”
Her appearance had not changed, which meant that she was powerful. Su Xiaolu was the same as his master. The more he looked at them, the more compatible they seemed.
Su Xiaolu smiled at them and brought the two of them upstairs to stay.
They were not in a hurry to enter the foreign land’s secret realm. They had to rest well first.
Two days later, they entered the secret realm together.
The sky outside was blue, the clouds were white, and the sun was high up, but inside, it was cold, humid, and dark.
As soon as they entered, they felt uncomfortable. Even the air carried a faint smell of blood.
At a glance, there were endless black mountains. They were bare, and even the sand was black. There were no green plants, and it was very oppressive.
However, there was occasionally a hint of sweetness in the air. It was the fragrance emitted by the treasure.
Zhou Zhi said to Jin Si, “Go out and wait.”
Jin Si was a little unwilling. He muttered, “Master, you were not willing to bring more people this time. You’ve been chasing people away along the way. Why are you still chasing me away here?”
He insisted on coming. He had been chased along the way. He did not expect to be chased away even after coming here.
Zhou Zhi’s expression was calm. “Leave.”
He didn’t say anything else. It was just an order.
Jin Si frowned and reluctantly turned to leave the foreign land.
This was indeed not a place he could enter. His cultivation level was too low. If he really followed, he would only cause trouble for his master.
Jin Si naturally wouldn’t go back. He just waited for them in the city.
After Jin Si left, Zhou Zhi reached out to Su Xiaolu. “The path ahead is so confusing. Come, I’ll hold your hand.”
Su Xiaolu put her hand on his. It felt good. Since he was so natural, she should be natural too.
Zhou Zhi’s hand was wider than hers and his palm was slightly cold. He was so thin.
That was what Su Xiaolu thought.
The two of them kept walking forward. The miasma here was black. It would make people even more uncomfortable if they couldn’t see their surroundings clearly. Fortunately, they accompanied each other.
Occasionally, she would hear some rustling, as if something was swimming over.
When they rested, Su Xiaolu took the powder and lit it. She stuffed a few more pills into Zhou Zhi’s mouth. Because of the poison in the powder, the effect of these medicines had long increased by several times. Any snake or insect would stay away from them.
Su Xiaolu felt at ease sleeping on the rattan bed.
The night and day here were no different. It was just darker at night.
Apart from some slight noises, there was no danger along the way.
That was until they met a group of people.
Everyone was a little vigilant against each other. No one spoke. Su Xiaolu recognized two of them as the brothers who had a conflict with her half a month ago. The big man’s eyes had recovered, and the brothers avoided her gaze.
The rest were unfamiliar. There were young and old people. They didn’t look in a good state. There was also a faint stench in the air, emitted by the rotting of their wounds. It looked like they had had an unstable experience.
Su Xiaolu and Zhou Zhi left. It was naturally best if they did not cause trouble.
Their departure did not cause any reaction from those people. Everyone seemed to be numb.
After leaving, Su Xiaolu said to Zhou Zhi, “Fourth Brother, they’re a little strange.”
Zhou Zhi replied, “It is a little strange. Some of them were a little surprised, glad, and smug. Some were even numb. I don’t know what they experienced.”
Su Xiaolu nodded in agreement. “That’s right. Two of them started looking for trouble with me half a month ago. At that time, I saw that they were valiant and spirited. They seem to be cowering now.”
“Ignore them. Let’s just find a way.”
Zhou Zhi held Su Xiaolu’s hand tightly.
In this dark and gloomy foreign land, his eyes were extremely dark, with a tearing and conflicting look that no one could see clearly. He held Su Xiaolu’s hand tightly and continued walking with her.
After walking for about four hours, the two of them stopped. There was a group of people in front of them. They were the people they had seen when they passed by previously.
Su Xiaolu frowned. “Why are we back?”
They were clearly looking at the mountain peak in front of them and walking forward. Why were they back to where they were?
The group of people was not surprised to see them walk back. There was even a gloating smile in their eyes. There were two more scapegoats.
Who would have thought that they, with their advanced cultivation levels, would be trapped here and unable to walk out? There must be greater demons hiding somewhere and living on their flesh and blood.
The more people came in, the higher their chances of survival. Therefore, when they saw new people come in, they were undoubtedly glad and proud.
“Let’s take a break.”
Zhou Zhi did not hold Su Xiaolu’s hand anymore. Instead, he brought her to an empty place to sit down.
Seeing that they were unwilling to come close to the crowd, the group of people was even more satisfied. In their eyes, there was an unsaid but mutually understood feeling of relief.
They seemed to be hugging each other tightly. Looking at the two outsiders who knew nothing, everyone tacitly did not open their mouths to answer their doubts.
Su Xiaolu patted Zhou Zhi’s hand and stood up. She bent down and leaned into Zhou Zhi’s ear. “Fourth Brother, wait for me. I’ll go ask about the situation.” Su Xiaolu stood up and walked towards the two brothers.
The two brothers wanted to avoid him. The two of them subconsciously hid behind the people around them. The elder brother was fine, but the younger brother was so big. How could he hide? Su Xiaolu pointed her sword at him. “Big guy, tell me what’s going on. If you don’t, I’ll kill you now.”
Su Xiaolu was really unruly at this moment.
The big man she was pointing at said indignantly, “You’re unreasonable!”
Su Xiaolu sneered. “Isn’t this the rule you set? The strong prey on the weak. The strong are respected. I’m stronger than you. What can you do to me? Comparing strength with the weak and reasoning with the strong. Fool, this is not how the martial world works.”
“Miss, do you often go to the martial world? I’ve also been to some of the martial world. I don’t know your name. Tell me. I might have heard it before.” An old man spoke. His gaze landed on Su Xiaolu and he smiled gently.
Su Xiaolu glanced at him and said coldly, “Old man, you’re really interesting. Instead of telling me your name, you’re asking me. Do I look easy to talk to?” When Su Xiaolu said that, the old man shut up.
Su Xiaolu continued to look at the big guy. “Tell me what’s going on. I’m trying to reason with you now. If you’re unwilling, I can only attack first before asking you. Anyway, look at these people. Who can help you?”
Su Xiaolu glanced around calmly. There were forty to fifty people in this group.
Familiar people sat in twos and threes. No one had the intention to interfere. They sat together in a circle, but their hearts were divided into dozens of pieces. They were in a state of disunity, so even if she really killed someone, no one would save them..
