Chapter 106 The Third Force

The closer they got, the tighter they pressed against each other.

Even Xiao Xueqing herself didn't realize that she and Qin Chuan were already incredibly close; it was an unconscious behavior.

While others were enduring the harsh environment, she was shocked to find, upon getting close to Qin Chuan, that the foul-smelling air, snakes, insects, and rodents around her seemed to have been shut out.

Yu Ming obviously noticed this scene as well, and he was extremely frustrated. This Qin Chuan was just an ordinary person, so how come he seemed to have a special relationship with Xiao Xueqing?

Even martial artists find it difficult to endure this harsh environment, let alone these spoiled brats.

"If I had known it would be like this, I wouldn't have come."

"Yeah, it's better to live in my big villa."

"I just got bitten by a mosquito here, and it's so itchy..."

These spoiled rich kids have never experienced hardship, and this terrible environment makes them complain endlessly.

Xiao Chuan wouldn't pay any attention to these spoiled brats. He frowned when he saw his niece and Qin Chuan standing close together, but he didn't go up and say anything.

Another day has passed.

One person after another fell.

"If this continues, we'll give up halfway before we even reach our destination."

Xiao Chuan frowned.

I thought I could just endure this harsh environment, but I never expected that the further I went in, the more snakes, insects, and rodents there were. Now, I can see a venomous snake just by looking up.

Even a master like him would die if bitten by a venomous snake and given antivenom.

"Xueqing, this environment looks like it's only going to get worse. You'd better not go in." Xiao Chuan walked over to Xiao Xueqing.

Xiao Xueqing is the granddaughter whom Old Master Xiao dotes on, and he can't let anything happen to this young lady.

Even if something happens to him, the second master of the Xiao family, Xiao Xueqing cannot be harmed.

"Second Uncle, I'm fine," Xiao Xueqing replied with a smile.

Ok?

Xiao Chuan was stunned. In this situation, even he would be cursing, but his niece could still laugh.

It seems I misunderstood my niece. I thought she was spoiled, but I didn't expect her to be so hardworking.

Little did he know that Xiao Xueqing was completely unaffected by the environment after getting close to Qin Chuan; on the contrary, she felt exceptionally cool and refreshed.

If I had to describe it in one word: comfortable!

"It's good that you're alright."

Xiao Chuan also took a special look at Qin Chuan, thinking that this guy probably couldn't handle hardship. The other spoiled rich kids were already complaining, so this kid probably wouldn't be much better off.

It turned out that Qin Chuan was the same, with a calm expression on his face, seemingly unaffected by the environment.

real or fake?

Xiao Chuan was puzzled. Even he, a seventh-realm martial artist, was feeling extremely uncomfortable, yet these two were completely unaffected.

However, he didn't think too much about it and quickly returned to the main group at the front.

"Mr. Qin, you don't mind, do you?" Xiao Xueqing asked cautiously.

Qin Chuan knew what she was asking, shook his head and smiled: "I don't mind, besides, I'm not at a loss if a beauty like you comes up to me."

"Mr. Qin is quite the charmer with his sweet talk," Xiao Xueqing chuckled.

Yu Ming and his fellow spoiled rich kids were filled with resentment. The environment was already terrible, which made them feel bad enough, but now they saw the girl they were pursuing chatting and laughing with other men. They couldn't be more depressed.

God knows how long this environment will last.

"Be careful!"

Just then, a venomous snake shot out like an arrow and bit Yu Ming.

The person who shouted "Be careful!" was a companion standing next to him.

Yu Ming's expression changed drastically, and he subconsciously closed his eyes.

call out!

A dagger flew through the air and embedded the venomous snake into the tree trunk.

When Yu Ming opened his eyes, the venomous snake was already dead. He immediately expressed his gratitude to the person who saved him.

"Thank you so much. I will definitely repay you properly after I leave!"

The person who saved him was Wu Xiuyin.

"You should leave. Even martial artists are finding it hard to bear. If you continue to go in, it will only get worse," Wu Xiuyin said without a trace of emotion.

"Yes, you should go back." Xiao Xueqing thought this made a lot of sense.

Being persuaded to go back by the two women made Yu Ming feel embarrassed, but he forced himself to say, "This isn't my first time here, it's just a small problem."

Seeing that Yu Ming kept going, Wu Xiuyin was too lazy to pay attention to him. Ordinary people who come to such an environment, unless they have rich experience in wilderness survival, will just be coming here to suffer without any hardship, and may even die here.

The good news is that after walking for another two hours, I felt a sense of openness and clarity. Although the environment wasn't exactly great, at least it wasn't like before.

"They're finally out!"

Xiao Chuan breathed a sigh of relief.

Looking at the people I brought, eight of them had fevers.

"According to the map, we should be there soon."

Xiao Chuan took out the map, examined it briefly, and then quickly put it away.

"You can't go in any further!"

At this moment, Director Xiang suddenly spoke.

"Why?" Xiao Chuan looked at him.

The guide said, "Some people have asked me to guide them before, and we ended up here. But those people never came out again."

"We're not ordinary people," Xiao Chuan said nonchalantly.

Director Xiang hesitated for a moment, then said, "Those people aren't ordinary people either."

"Don't compare us to them," Wu Xiuyin snorted coldly.

Xiao Chuan glanced at Wu Xiuyin and thought to himself, "I am confident because my strength is there. Do you think your little family, which I don't know where you came from, is so confident?"

"Director Sun, please lead the way properly. These are not ordinary people."

Yu Ming patted Director Xiang on the shoulder.

"But..." Director Sun Xiang obviously dared not go any further inside.

"Add more money," Xiao Chuan said decisively.

"Okay!" Director Sun gritted his teeth and continued leading the way.

Money is tempting even for martial artists, let alone ordinary people.

at the same time.

the other direction.

A number of forces are also approaching.

"Ms. Kawashima should be around here."

A man with a samurai sword at his waist spoke in a low voice, still speaking in Japanese.

Kawashima Nanako was about twenty-five or twenty-six years old. She was very beautiful with fair skin and didn't look like a woman who would come to a place like this. She looked more like a noble lady.

"Very good. I've heard that the land immortals of the Dragon Kingdom are exceptionally wealthy. I hope his tomb won't disappoint me!"

A burning light shone in Nanako Kawashima's beautiful eyes.

If they simply follow the route of this group, it's only a matter of time before they run into Qin Chuan and his group, because the two of them will definitely meet in the end.

Both sides are moving forward, and because the environment is no longer harsh, their pace of progress is naturally faster.

Finally, half an hour later, the two sides met...
