The other two also approached at this moment, looking at Mu Xu with worried expressions.
The man who spoke again said, “Since we got separated from Miss Bai Siqi this time, I think it would be better to find her first and join forces. Our Mu family and the Bai family together would be better prepared to guard against the Wu family!”
“Li Xuan!”
Mu Xu’s voice carried a hint of reproach as he lowered it and said, “I have learned about Ye Wushuang from the family’s information, and he is indeed someone who repays kindness.”
“He was in Qingzhou of the Tianyuan Continent, where he received help from the Shengtian Sect and regarded Yin Shenghao and the others as his benefactors, always seeking to repay them!”
“And what Ye Wushuang just said is not false. Moreover… he killed Wu Anyi and Wu Anwan to save us.”
“Let me ask you, did he know we came to the Burial Sage Cave to find the Ziwēi Blood Ginseng before he helped us?”
Mu Qinghe and the other three raised their eyebrows.
“He didn’t know we came for the Ziwēi Blood Ginseng, yet he still acted righteously to help us. After learning the truth, he agreed to assist us, but you suspect him of coveting the Ziwēi Blood Ginseng!”
“Let me ask you again, even we are not quite sure if there is Ziwēi Blood Ginseng in this Burial Sage Cave. How could he risk himself for something so uncertain?”
Mu Xu’s words left Mu Qinghe and the other three speechless.
The guard named Li Xuan said in a low voice, “I understand my mistake.”
“I’m not blaming you. Although I feel that Ye Wushuang doesn’t seem like a bad person, I… am also puzzled by how kind he is to us. Is it just about repaying a favor?”
Mu Xu wasn’t very sure either.
The next day, early in the morning, after Mu Xu, Mu Qinghe, and the other four had rested and prepared, they set off together with Ye Wushuang, Yu Yourong, and Tian Linzi, heading deeper into the area.
On the way, Ye Wushuang couldn’t help but ask, “How did you get in here?”
This was a secret place inside the Burial Sage Cave. Ye Wushuang and the others had entered with Qi Rongxuan and his group, but he didn’t know how Mu Xu and the others had come in.
“It was also a stroke of luck,” Mu Xu said with a smile. “We encountered a pack of Wind Spirit Wolves, who chased us all the way into a cave. After some twists and turns, we ended up here. We found some strange things along the way and kept exploring until Wu Anyi and Wu Anwan caught up with us and we had a fight.”
So, there was more than one way to get into this place.
In the dense forest, there were occasional hills, but none were very tall, with the highest being no more than two to three hundred feet.
The eight of them, cautious and alert, traveled for about half a day. Suddenly, the ground ahead opened up into a vast, barren, yellow earth, devoid of any vegetation or mountains, stretching as far as the eye could see.
“Everyone be careful,” Ye Wushuang said earnestly. “Something feels off.”
The eight of them stepped onto the yellow earth and continued to move forward. As they went deeper, a sense of sternness and killing intent became increasingly palpable.
Suddenly.
A pitch-black city wall stood majestically ahead.
The surface of the wall was weathered and scarred, everywhere showing the sedimentation and preservation of history.
The wall stretched for dozens of miles, with nine gates.
Some gates were already decayed and worn, some had no gates at all, and the central city tower’s gate was relatively well-preserved and currently open.
Ye Wushuang and the others arrived at the foot of the wall. The ten-zhang-high wall, with its weathered marks right before their eyes, gave a strong sense of oppression.
Black, solemn, and oppressive.
Stepping into the city, the sense of sternness and killing intent that had been accompanying them became even more pronounced.
The streets were desolate, desolate, dilapidated, and filled with a sense of desolation.
Mu Xu slowly said at this moment, “I have heard that the Burial Sage Cave of the Tianyuan Continent has a history of tens of thousands of years. Countless摘星化境,入圣天境, and even sages have died here.”
“It seems to be true now!”
The appearance of such an empty city in a secret place inside the Burial Sage Cave was already very strange.
Ye Wushuang’s hand traced out spiritual patterns, like threads, drifting into the shops and houses on both sides.
Soon, the spiritual patterns returned.
Ye Wushuang breathed a sigh of relief inwardly.
This was not an illusion, but reality, right in front of them.
Boom…
At this moment, a deafening roar came from somewhere inside the dilapidated ancient city.
The next moment, smoke rolled and lingered in the direction to the left front of the eight people.
Tian Linzi took a step forward and immediately said, “Young master, I’ll go and have a look.”
“Be careful.”
“Okay.”
In a few flashes, Tian Linzi had already disappeared from the spot.
Soon, Tian Linzi returned, his face beaming with joy as he said, “It’s Qi Rongxuan’s group fighting with another group!”
“But the other group seems to be at a disadvantage!”
“Oh?”
Hearing this, Ye Wushuang also became interested.
