C302 Anger

Just as he put away the dagger, Zheng Lei felt something beneath his feet start to shake. He looked down and saw that his feet were slowly splitting open. He quickly jumped to the side.

With a 'swoosh', Zheng Lei once again landed inside the tunnel.

F * ck! It's not that crack, it's too darned! Zheng Lei cursed in his heart as he raised his sword and stabbed it towards the wall of the passageway. With a dull sound, the sword stabbed into the wall and his body immediately stopped falling.

So dangerous! Zheng Lei let out a long breath and stomped his feet in all directions. Feeling the slope of this passage, he could feel that it was at least seventy degrees.

"How can we get them down this steep? People who go down can still come up? " Zheng Lei's mind was filled with doubts. He suspected that the person who built this building was either crushed by the door or kicked by a donkey. It was obvious that they didn't want anyone to come up and live, but they still created this tunnel.

Hanging in the air like this wasn't really an option. Zheng Lei's feet stepped on the wall as he slowly pulled the sword out of his hands, then with the power of the sword, he stabbed the sword into the wall to reduce the force of his fall. This way, he wouldn't fall to a half-dead after falling to the bottom.

He did not know how many times he had stabbed his sword into the wall. Finally, his feet landed on the ground.

In the final stage of his descent, Zheng Lei discovered a light coming from somewhere else. It looked like the light from a candle flame. Intuition told Zheng Lei that there was going to be a problem here.

Thus, the moment he landed, Zheng Lei immediately turned around and looked at the outside of the tunnel. He couldn't help but tightly grab onto the longsword in his hand.

With this look, Zheng Lei could not help but suck in a breath of cold air. From the entrance to the tunnel and the space in front of him, it looked no different from the previous floor. However, this space was not ordinary.

It was also a huge underground cave, but it was not empty. At the top of the cave, there was an ancient oil lamp hanging from it every so often. It was unknown how long it had been burning for and it was still burning quietly.

The oil lamps illuminated the entire cave, and on the ground, there were people kneeling like statues. All of them were dressed in white, and all of them had the same posture; their arms were crossed in front of their chest, and their heads were lowered with all their might.

Zheng Lei knew that perhaps he had arrived at that person's nest that was pretending to be a god behind the scenes. At the very least, it was a gathering place. Because of this position, Zheng Lei had seen it more than once.

Seeing this scene, Zheng Lei's heart was not used to it, because these kneeling 'people' were all dead. Moreover, among all the people that he saw, there was not a single one of them who was old. That was to say, every single one of them represented a young life that had died a violent death.

Looking at the people kneeling here, Zheng Lei's heart was filled with anger. He roughly glanced around, there were at least a few thousand people here, in such a large cave, densely packed together they were kneeling. He didn't know just how vicious these people were, to actually cause so many young lives to be wasted.

Zheng Lei carefully walked into the group of "people", at the same time cautiously feeling the bead from his chest. Zheng Lei carefully walked into the group of "people", at the same time cautiously feeling the bead from his heart.

Amongst these "people", most of them were young women. He didn't need to think too much to know that the final act of these girls before their deaths would be extremely miserable. What they would lose would not only be their lives.

When he walked into the "People" group, Lotus, who had been tightly pressed to his left hand, started to tremble lightly, as if it had felt something.

At the same time, he felt that it was very strange. The temperature here was moderate, neither cold nor hot, but for some reason, these lifeless corpses actually didn't emit any rancid smell from this level of space.

After walking for a while, Zheng Lei saw a girl holding a book in her hands. The book was a little tattered, but she seemed to be fine, he looked at it closely, and couldn't help but be shocked. This book was a textbook with the words "Nanshan University" written on the cover.

He bent down to look at the girl's face, not Nie Yuan, but the girl's face was filled with terror and unwillingness, such a powerless confession, right before death, he saw the thing he feared the most in his life, and beside him there wasn't even anything that could comfort him. He could only hold onto the book he used every day in class, hoping to protect himself a little.

Zheng Lei gripped the sword tightly and slowly stood up. He looked around and said word by word, "I, Zheng Lei, swear on my life today! No matter where you go in this life, you must kill the people who harmed you and have no regrets in this life! "

The generous voice echoed in the underground space. Suddenly, an extremely light wind slowly blew and lightly caressed Zheng Lei's body. It was as if these wronged souls were crying out in gratitude.

Turning around, Zheng Lei walked towards the center with firm steps. The lotus flower in his hand was giving Zheng Lei guidance, allowing him to get closer and closer to Nie Yuan's corpse.

After walking out of the 'people' group, Zheng Lei once again saw the familiar 'Heaven Altar'. Here, Zheng Lei finally saw some different places, on one side of the 'Heaven Altar' was a small platform. Around the platform were four green coffins, and all the 'people' were kneeling down towards this platform.

On the platform, there was a simple stone chair.

He lifted his hand and a bolt of lightning struck the stone chair. After a series of rumbling sounds, the stone chair actually didn't get damaged at all, causing him to feel a bit surprised. After all, he was truly at the third step of his cultivation, so the power of this bolt of lightning was far beyond what he could compare with.

"Humph!" Even if I can't destroy you, I have to do something for them! " Zheng Lei pressed his hands to the ground and spirit energy flowed out from his fingers. Every strand of spirit energy wrapped around a corpse, then he twisted the direction in which they were kneeling in to another direction.

He knew that if the souls of these people were here, they wouldn't be willing to kneel down and worship to the person on the stone chair. Although he couldn't kill the person on the stone chair right now, his heart would feel a little better.
