C48 Makes It Self-defeating

Su Jiu pursed her lips, hesitating to speak. In the end, she obediently walked to the stone table and sat down.

Kunwu Jiongnuo shook his jade fan and stared at Xin Cangqu who was looking back and forth, smiling without saying a word.

He meticulously searched a few more times, and didn't even leave the corner of the wall. But now that half a day had passed, he was still unable to find anything. In the end, he could only stop.

Kunwu Jiongnuo kept looking at him like that and didn't look away for a second. Seeing that he finally gave up, a rampant smile flashed across his eyes.

Just as he was about to flare up, he suddenly heard a faint sound of flowing water. Xin Cangqu's eyes lit up, her ears twitched slightly, and she closed her eyes to listen carefully. With his hearing, he could even hear any movement in the surrounding area, let alone underground, so the sounds around him would naturally not escape his ears.

When Xin Cangqu opened her eyes again, her bright gaze seemed to have illuminated the entire steel prison.

Su Jiu and Kunwu Jiongnuo were still confused. They saw him turn around and stride towards the iron wall in the south. He said, "Back off."

Kunwu Jiongnuo didn't have time to think about what he was going to do. He quickly pulled Su Jiu, who was still stunned on the spot, and quickly retreated to a spot close to the north wall with a fan to cover her face.

In the next moment, with a "bang" sound, the dense Fire of Other Shore exploded towards the southern part of the iron wall. In that moment, more than half of the iron wall had been melted and exploded, forming a gap big enough for two people to pass through shoulder to shoulder.

Xin Cangqu retracted her hand and looked at the dark hole. With a slight frown, she muttered, "That can't be, it shouldn't be like this …"

Kunwu Jiongnuo immediately understood what Xin Cangqu was trying to do. Although he had not fully recovered, his hearing ability had not decreased. Since Xin Cangqu could hear the sound of running water, he could hear it too.

When Su Jiu recovered from her shock, the southern wall in front of her had already been blown up to such a state. She couldn't help but mumble, "Lord Cang, what are you doing?"

After a while, the sound of water flowing became louder, and Xin Cangqu was even more certain that she had found the right place. She turned around and said, "You two, prepare yourselves. When this general breaks through the wall, we will leave together."

"Alright." Although Su Jiu was a little confused, she still agreed without hesitation.

"Lord Cang is really Lord Cang!" Kunwu Jiongnuo said his praise as he closed the jade fan.

Xin Cangqu couldn't be bothered to pay attention to him either. She once again channeled her internal energy into her palms and pushed forward.

This time, just as his palm hit the south wall, a few streams of water sprayed in. Soon after, the corner of Xin Cangqu's mouth curled up into a charming smile as she added a bit more strength, causing the wall behind the steel wall to completely collapse. A large amount of water immediately filled the iron prison, causing Xin Cangqu, Kunwu Jiongnuo, and Su Jiu to sink into the water.

Xin Cangqu guided the other two outwards through the water current.

After swimming for an unknown amount of time, the torrential water seemed to have no end, and the area ahead of them was frighteningly dark.

Xin Cangqu and Kunwu Jiongnuo were as relaxed as they were when they came out of the dungeon. With their martial arts skills, staying in the water for a day and a night shouldn't be a problem.

However, Su Jiu's calmness naturally couldn't be compared with Xin Cangqu's and Kunwu Jiongnuo's. After swimming just a short distance, she was already unable to bear it. However, she didn't want to be a burden to Xin Cangqu.

After about an hour, Su Jiu finally could not take it anymore. Although she was not a daughter of a rich family, she had grown up under the care and care of her elder brothers. Since when had she experienced such a situation?

Su Jiu, who suffered from severe hypoxia, wanted to call Lord Cang, but not only was she unable to make a sound, she choked on a few mouthfuls of water and couldn't help but cough for a while.

Xin Cangqu turned her head to look at Su Jiu upon hearing the sound. She knew that if she continued like this, she would drown, so she quickly swam to Su Jiu's side and grabbed Su Jiu's arm. She gave her a "trust me" look before sealing her acupoints and holding her in her arms, bringing her along with her as they swam forward.

Just like that, they spent the entire night in the water.

The next day, when Xin Cangqu and Su Jiu swam out of the water, the sky was already brightening.

Kunwu Jiongnuo also swam out of the water. He looked up at the gray sky, then looked at Xin Cangqu, who carried Su Jiu ashore, and asked him, "Where is this place?"

When Xin Cangqu heard his words, she did not immediately reply. She only turned her head to look at him after placing Su Jiu on the beach, and a demonic smile appeared on her lips.

His words were very light and casual, but Kunwu Jiongnuo felt a chill in his heart when he heard it, "What?"

Xin Cangqu looked at the surprised Kunwu Jiongnuo, feeling carefree in her heart, and said with a smile that did not reach her eyes, "What a coincidence!" I didn't expect that your iron prison would lead to the Cloud River, and I didn't know that even though you and I had been drifting in the water for an entire night, we had actually floated past Tongyue and directly arrived at the Tianxin. This saved us a lot of time, and even more time than I had expected.

When Kunwu Jiongnuo heard this, his expression instantly changed countless of times. Even though he had the advantage in Kunwu, Xin Cangqu had still stayed in the Kunwu for five years after all. Whether it was where he should go or where he shouldn't go, he had already gone to every single place.

But now that they had reached the Tianxin, it could be said that Kunwu Jiongnuo was forced to submit to others. Even though he had always sent people here to protect Kunwu Liyuan, he had never come here personally, and had lost a point to Xin Cangqu just because of this, and following Fire Demon's actions, he would definitely take revenge on all kinds of things that happened while he was within the Kunwu. It looks like he had to be extra careful this time.

Knowing that he was just teasing him from the bottom of his heart, Kunwu Jiongnuo, who had originally been soaking in the water for an entire night, became even paler. "Then, can Lord Cang take this king to play in Tianxin for a few days?"

"Of course." Xin Cangqu agreed readily. She looked around and saw that there was no place for them to stay, not even a broken house or temple. She sighed. "It seems that this trip won't go well."
