Chapter 304 Golden Leaf Gorge
Who knows what might happen? Maybe the two of them will be the ones lying in a pool of blood.
Blood bubbles were gurgling from Jinling's mouth, but she had a wicked smile on her face.
It felt like the game had just begun; she just stared at the two of them without closing her eyes.
The surrounding cages and the pair of golden bells slowly turned into spots of light and disappeared into the air.
The fact that the natal artifact is broken indicates that its owner has also perished.
Su Fengling was somewhat displeased: "Sister, I already told you to let me do it."
"The ending is the same all the time." She pulled her hand back to her face.
Where the bell turned into a spot of light, a note was left behind.
The next line of the nursery rhyme was also written inside.
"Golden Leaf Gorge, Golden Leaf Gorge, there lives a blind old woman, with a long cane and a short cane. When she opens her eyes, she is a living god; when she closes her eyes, she sees the Netherworld."
This must be the clue they originally obtained that marked the next location on the map.
She had a bad feeling; Yan Jinyi was definitely not that simple.
It seems like they are no match for the group, so perhaps they just want to lurk among them and watch the show!
At this moment, the crowd waiting anxiously on the periphery, some stood rubbing their hands together, while others stood with their hands behind their backs.
Yan Jinyi's narrowed red eyes suddenly opened, her gaze flickered twice, and then returned to calm.
He seemed to know that Jinling was dead, but he didn't speak, and he looked around as if everyone's attention wasn't on him.
This game is getting more and more fun.
In the blink of an eye, he vanished without a trace right under the noses of several of them.
Yan Ruoyu noticed that Yan Jinyi had left, but he did not chase after him. It was indeed not advisable for them to split up now.
The two people inside the cave swept away all the treasures left by Jinling, leaving only a dozen or so skeletons hanging on the cave wall.
Zhongli Yueluo looked on, and Su Fengling said, "Let's just burn it down. Let dust return to dust, and ashes to ashes."
Su Fengling snapped his fingers, and two small flames flew out from his fingertips and landed on the ground.
The fire then spread to the bones, crackling and popping as it burned, releasing a burnt smell.
Su Fengling held her hand in front of Zhongli Yueluo's nose: "Sister, let's go, don't let the smell bother you."
The path behind the cave gradually came into view, the flowers withered, and the fireflies that had been guiding the way shone faintly ahead.
Then thick smoke billowed from the cave, and a burst of fire erupted from within. Two people, their fingers intertwined, walked out of the fire.
His clothes appeared spotless, and he didn't even glance back before following the direction indicated by the fluorescent light.
As we slowly walked away, reaching the hillside, we saw that the thick smoke hadn't stopped. If it didn't rain, this ridge would likely be gone.
"Sister, does your wrist hurt?" Su Fengling took her wrist with some concern and gently rubbed it.
"It hurts, but it's nothing. Let's go quickly. I have a feeling of unease."
"Okay." He gently stroked her hair, then embraced her, and vanished into the forest in a flash.
Those outside the boundary marker also saw the thick smoke billowing in the distance and worried that something might happen to them.
Before long, Su Fengjun sensed their presence, and it was just the two of them.
Now that they had dealt with Jinling, they felt a little relieved.
Seeing the two appear before them unharmed, the group of people crowded around them and asked questions.
Zhongli Yuelu simply shrugged, and the note she had obtained from the golden bell appeared before everyone.
Upon seeing the nursery rhyme above, Zhongli Yueluo looked around and asked, "Where is Yan Jinyi?"
Only then did they notice that he was gone, and Yan Ruoyu simply squinted and said, "He escaped."
"I knew he was the one who orchestrated all of this. It seems he really is a complete madman!"
Zhongli Yueluo squinted, the handcuffs jingling and rattling, but in the end she was still led by the nose.
"So, what's next?" Yin Yi asked.
"Since you've shown us the way, let's go and take a look at Golden Leaf Gorge." Zhongli Yueluo smiled slightly.
He looked at Yan Ruoyu with worried eyes, as if he had something on his mind that he didn't want them to talk about.
"Ruoyu, is something wrong? Can't you tell us?"
Although everyone present was one of their own, this was an internal matter for the Zheng clan, and it also concerned his family.
He didn't want to expose his vulnerable side to them.
In the eyes of the world, he has always been that elegant and refined young lord.
His red eyes narrowed slightly, as if he wanted to say something but hesitated: "Let's find the key first, and I'll tell you later."
He wasn't mentally prepared to reveal his past.
Hearing him say this, no one insisted, and they simply followed the map's directions and headed towards Golden Leaf Gorge.
Just like its name suggests, the Golden Leaf Gorge becomes narrower as you go further in.
Between the two mountains and the valley, there is a long, thin stream that flows into the Heartless River.
As the group stood atop the hill and looked into the canyon, a chill ran through them.
But they didn't seem to sense any living beings, so they groped around in the mountains.
Until I heard the sound of a cane hitting the ground, a sound that came from the soft earth.
As they walked further ahead, they heard Su Nianhui and He Yuhuan exclaim in surprise.
A hole in the ground wire appeared behind them, and Zhongli Yueluo was walking closer to He Yuhuan.
Upon hearing her shout, he turned around and immediately reached out to grab her, but she couldn't support the weight of both of them.
They were all pulled into the sinkhole by the two men, and as they fell into the darkness, all three of them ended up with mouthfuls of dirt.
He Yuhuan repeatedly spat, "Pah! Pah! Pah!"
Su Nianhui grabbed the vine beside her, but the vine broke and she fell rapidly, eventually landing on He Yuhuan.
He Yuhuan cried out "Ouch!" again, while Zhongli Yueluo fell heavily to the side.
Their bones felt like they were falling apart, and in this rapid descent, they couldn't even enforce the law.
It will have direct, close contact with the ground.
At this moment, the people on the ground had not yet reacted when they turned around and saw that three people had disappeared.
The area where the ground had sunk had been leveled, and as they looked around, they could still sense the energy within their bodies.
But they couldn't see anyone; they hadn't expected the crisis to come so quickly.
Zhongli Yueluo struggled to her feet and rubbed her joints. Although it was dark, she could still make out her figure.
The place they were in now resembled a tunnel. She tentatively called out, "Yu Huan? Nian Hui?"
"Master, I am here."
Su Nian also responded, "Mother..."
Hearing that they were both alright, she breathed a sigh of relief, and a halo of light appeared on her fingertip, illuminating the surrounding environment.
