C383 Whirlpool

As soon as he entered the hole, Zhang Jingxuan felt a fresh stench coming from the hole, and his heart was filled with joy. It seemed like the Salamander had just left this place not long ago, and he had finally found the right path.

The wall was smooth, but the cave was even narrower. It was almost as if only one person could pass through it. If there was an ambush or a hidden weapon thrown at him, it would be extremely difficult to block it. However, Zhang Jingxuan could not care about that at this moment. He used both his palms to protect himself, but his feet moved forward at an extremely fast speed. He had made up his mind that once he was attacked, he wouldn't hesitate to use a method that would cause both sides to suffer heavy losses to deal with him.

After running for a moment like this, and the cave was pitch black and invisible, Zhang Jingxuan almost bumped into another secret door in front of him.

This time, Zhang Jingxuan did not have any more misgivings. He struck out with his palm. The same moving secret door could not withstand his palm force. With a loud bang, the whole door flew out and fell to the ground with a "Pa!" sound.

Zhang Jingxuan did not stop at all. He flew out as if he was flying. He landed earlier than the secret door that fell to the ground. Ke Lianguo, who was following behind, saw the situation in the cave. He saw a figure in the cave. Zhang Jingxuan's Heaven Conniving Sword had been stabbed at an unknown time, but it immediately stopped. He took a few steps back.

The reason was that Zhang Jingxuan recognized this person, and also because this person was a woman. It was also because this woman was not wearing any clothes. Her jade-like skin emitted a strange light in the cave, causing one's soul to tremble.

Not far away from the woman, there was a pool of blood. The blood had solidified and was dark brown in color, but no one knew who its owner was.

Tang Fuliu leaned against a piece of beast skin and there was not a single strand of it on her body. Her eyes were closed and it was as if she had fallen into a deep sleep. Although she was over forty years old, perhaps it was because she cultivated the Life Returning Divine Art. Her figure was still that of a young girl. She had two straight peaks, a slender waist, and long legs. Both of them made Zhang Jingxuan and Ke Lianguo feel like they didn't dare look at her directly.

But Zhang Jingxuan and Ke Lianguo keenly noticed that Tang Fuliu no longer had any breathing and heartbeat. In other words, Tang Liu, the lass Tang Fuliu, died just like that. She came and went naked.

Borrowing the faint light, Zhang Jingxuan went forward to take a look. There were no injuries on Tang Fuliu's body. Only her forehead was inlaid with a red gem. It was forcefully pressed into her frontal bone, which was already in sync with her skin. It was as if it was naturally grown on the forehead. This was probably a fatal wound.

In front of Tang Fuliu, another item that was placed in front of her attracted their attention. It was a small table that was exquisitely made. In this cave, it seemed out of place. The pen and paper placed on the table seemed a little messy. When he got closer, he saw that the painting was actually painted with the color of spring. Obviously, it was drawn with Tang Fuliu as a model.

The artist's skill was exquisite and lifelike. It was even a little better than the beauty. However, the eyes of the woman in the painting were open, as if they contained endless temptation. Ke Lianguo took a look and felt his heart pounding violently.

Zhang Jingxuan took a glance and took off his long robe to cover Tang Fuliu's body. Then he rolled up the painting and put it in his arms.

Ke Lianguo thought to himself. He didn't expect Cult Master Zhang to be like this, but this wasn't a big deal. He had to keep his mouth shut and not tell anyone.

Zhang Jingxuan didn't have time to care about what he was thinking. He immediately went to see the way out. Just like the previous cave, there was also a path that led directly to the pond. However, when he took a look at it, he was greatly disappointed. Under the violent tremor just now, the passageway here had also been destroyed. It was unknown how long it would take to dig it up again.

Zhang Jingxuan returned to the cave and stared at Tang Liangqin who was standing in the pond. He felt that ___'s posture in the water was a little more comical than Tang Huzhou's, and there was nothing unusual about him. Zhang Jingxuan had already experienced the crystal wall in front of him, so he could only ask for another method. Ke Lianguo did not seem to be idle at this moment. He patted the wall. Soon, he found another relief on the wall of the cave.

"This time it's the Wood God's Shine Light. Look at his slanted eyes looking in the direction he's looking." A statue with a bird face and a human body appeared from the moss and the soil attached to it. Its bird eyes bulged out as it looked towards a corner of the cave.

As expected, Zhang Jingxuan easily found a hole in that spot. The two of them had experience and this time, they travelled even faster. It didn't take long for them to pass through the cave and arrive in front of the next cave. Although Zhang Jingxuan was burning with anxiety, he still forced himself to remain calm.

But when he jumped into the next cave, everything in front of him... No matter how much he wanted to remain calm, he couldn't. He felt as if he had fallen into an endless nightmare, no matter how hard he tried. It was as if he couldn't wake up.

The moment he entered the cave, he saw a familiar face lying on the ground, staring at him with a pale face.

Yuen Luoyuan, the brother whom he had spent all his time with. The brother that he had been searching for all this time had actually appeared here. However, he had yet to receive his help. Just like that, he died silently.

Yuen Luoyuan's eyes were wide open, unwilling to close them. His eyes were filled with unwillingness, as if he wanted to tell Zhang Jingxuan something.

Zhang Jingxuan felt that the anger in his chest could be ignited. At the same time, a chill slowly slid down his spine, making him feel like he was in an ice cellar.

Ke Lianguo saw all of this too, but he would not be as shocked as Zhang Jingxuan. He disappeared for a moment, then immediately returned to Zhang Jingxuan's side. He said softly, "Cult Master Zhang, the passageway here doesn't seem to have been destroyed."

Zhang Jingxuan heard it, but also did not seem to have heard it.

For the first time in his life, he felt a deep sense of loss and loss.

This kind of feeling, even when his father passed away or when Sun Shanglou and Big Brother Sun passed away, wasn't as strong as this.

Yuen Luoyuan had died here. Theoretically, there were still two caves ahead that had not been explored. He did not know if there would be any news about Gan Shichi and Ding Dingding. Their fate was unknown.

However, Lee Huanqing and the others who were above them had also fallen into the same situation.

What should they do to choose between the two sides?

He had been having a smooth sailing since his debut. Now, he suddenly felt like he was in a huge whirlpool, pulling him into an endless abyss.

But he had no idea. He didn't even know who the enemy was, where he was, what he wanted to do, and how he should accept the challenge.

He was in a dilemma.

However, no matter how difficult it was, he had to make a final decision.
