"Miss Fang, forgive me!" Lonemoon gave Fang Fang a look, took her and followed. Only he lifted her instead.
The two went with a fast speed, yet after an hour of going along the direction of the underground river, they still didn't see its end. By right, even for an underground river, it should flow into a main river, or the sea. They thought that they must have long gone beyond the city by now, yet they still didn't find its end.
Chef leading the way in front suddenly paused, and turned to look at the cliff to his right.
"What's wrong?" Lonemoon also stopped.
Yi Qing turned back and gave him a look."The direction changed!"
Lonemoon was stunned. Sensing it carefully, he realized that indeed, the string of spirit qi changed course.
Yi Qing thought about it and then retreated a few steps and put down the person he held."Master, please wait here for a moment, don't go too near." With that said, he stuffed a fruit into her hand.
"Oh." Shen Ying took it and took two steps back.
Lonemoon also hurried to step back, dragging the girl Fang Fang with him.
Only then did Yi Qing take out a longsword from his storage bag and focused his spirit to shove it right at the cliff beside him. Though he couldn't use spells, Chef with only his sword technique still opened up the whole cliff instantly. Large pieces of broken rocks rolled down, showing a passage forcefully opened by Sword Qi.
"Let's go, Master." Yi Qing put away his sword and turned back.
"Yup." Shen Ying followed.
"Wait, wait for me!" Fang Fang anxiously walked forward a few steps and walked behind Shen Ying with some remaining fear.
Lonemoon had to walk at the end of the row.
This passage opened up by Chef wasn't very wide. At first, it could only allow one person to pass, yet somehow the deeper they went, the wider it became. Even the light bead Lonemoon held in his hand didn't seem able to light up the whole area around them.
Fang Fang looked even more scared and followed even closer. She even grabbed Shen Ying's hand subconsciously."Where... where is this place after all?"
"No idea!" replied Shen Ying. She still nibbled at the fruit, and there wasn't the tiniest bit of panic on her face, as though she wasn't at an unknown, dangerous place, but here for a purposeful tour.
The girl Fang Fang gave her a look, and somehow also seemed less scared herself."Miss Shen is so brave. Even I am becoming less nervous." She showed a friendly smile. Suddenly, she seemed to remember something."Oh yeah, I also bought a few pears beside the street this morning. Miss Shen likes fruits so much, would you like to taste it?" With that said, she immediately took out a pear from the bag she carried.
Yet Shen Ying didn't look at that pear, but turned and looked straight at her. She didn't respond for a long time. When the girl thought that she was going to refuse, she suddenly smiled, nodded and said, "Okay! Thank you!"
"You're... you're welcome." Fang Fang returned her smile and turned to the front. Suddenly, her expression looked shocked as she said, "Hmm? Is there light in front? Are we... are we at the exit?"
With that said, , she grabbed Shen Ying and walked forward several steps, her face full of joyful surprise.
Indeed, there was suddenly a white light not far from them, and it grew brighter and brighter. At the same time, a wave of thick Spirit Qi also rushed towards their faces. Yi Qing and Lonemoon at the back exchanged a look and also hastened their footsteps.
"It's so good, we can finally be out." Fang Fang became even more joyful, her look excited. The white light in front increased in number before them, yet it didn't look like sunlight, but more like a large patch of moving light dots.
"This is..." Her footsteps paused and she looked at the scene before her with a totally shocked expression.
Before her was a large wave of thick whiteness, one couldn't tell what it was. It was like countless light dots gathered together. They filled up the whole ground and were flowing slowly like white spring water.
Instantly, everything around them disappeared, as though they were transported into another space-time in an instant. Their surroundings were totally dark, with only that patch of whiteness before them.
"What... what is this?!" Fang Fang looked completely shocked.
Lonemoon took one step forward, then suddenly turned back and smiled, "What is this? Shouldn't you tell us that?"
"Young Master, what are you talking about?" She turned back, her face blank."I don't understand."
Lonemoon's eyes darkened."You plotted carefully to draw the three of us here, it can't be just to let us watch you act?"
She froze for a moment. In the next instant, the original innocent and confused look changed instantly. Suddenly, her figure flashed and retreated right into that white light, showing a satisfied smile."I didn't expect you to see through it after all. When did you start suspecting me?"
"When you appeared in that room one floor below." Lonemoon was in no hurry. He explained slowly.
"One floor below?" She was stunned for a moment. Didn't she expose herself from the very beginning, then? "How did you realize that I was pretending?"
Lonemoon rolled his eyes at her and gave her a how-is-this-worth-asking expression."We were staying right upstairs. If that old woman below was really killed by the innkeeper, it was impossible for us to not hear it. Besides, there was no bloodstain on the knives those two carried." Those two holding knives ran up hurriedly upon hearing the innkeeper's voice. If he really killed one person before that, how could they have the time to wash their knives clean, before coming up?
"I see!" She looked like she came to a sudden realization."I didn't imagine that I was exposed that early. Since you knew early on that there was a problem with me, why did you take me all the way here?"
"We've already come here, naturally we wanted to be clear, " said Lonemoon, "what did you draw us to this place for after all?"
"What for?" She suddenly laughed out loud. Her eyes sank and it was immediately full of viscousness. She spoke gritting her teeth, "To destroy you scum and turn you into dust, naturally."
Lonemoon was stunned, feeling that her hatred came with no reason."We do not know each other, why are you doing this?"
"Why? Hahaha..." She laughed even more loudly. her eyes grew cold and hatred overflowed from it like sea waves."You all invaded my world for no reason, and you ask me why?"
"Invade?" Lonemoon was stunned, his eyes opened wide with disbelief."You are the Manager!" How was this possible? Could a world so tiny really be a plane?
"Very surprised, are you?" As though guessing what he was thinking, she smiled even more coldly."Such a small plane could actually have a Manager? A pity that you won't have a chance to leave this plane alive, the same for your Manager." With that said, she suddenly raised a hand. That pear in Shen Ying's hand suddenly produced several rays of white light, forming four light walls which kept her inside directly.
