Qiao Mu eyed Guan Yiying, who was lying on the ground, with a cold gaze and struck her with a vine. “You can go die now.”
“Ah!” Guan Yiying’s eyes flashed malevolently as she spat out a round bead with all her might.
“Watch out!” Mo Lian darted forward and pulled his wifey into his arms.
No sooner had he said this when that divine energy bead exploded thunderously in front of everyone.
The entire tomb shook from this explosion, and the palace walls and columns all started to crack and collapse.
This happened so quickly that before everybody could react, their line of sight darkened as bricks and dust fell down on them.
They covered everybody with a boom, whack, and thunk.
It wasn’t until so ti afterwards that soone’s smothered coughs could be heard from the rubble.
“Qiaoqiao?”
“Xuanxuan!”
“Fatty, is everyone alright?”
“Cough, cough, cough! We’re fine.” Duanmu Qing’s voice sounded raspy, and he coughed to clear his throat of dust.
“Don’t panic, everyone. First dig a tunnel for us to regroup.” ntor Wei Xu instructed in a low voice, “Careful of the zombies near you.”
......
*Thud, thud, thud, thud!* Qiao Mu kicked away the boulder in front of her and illuminated the area up ahead with her night luminous pearl. She imdiately saw the little fatty and Duanmu Qing.
Duanmu Qing hastily ran up and asked anxiously, “Qiaoqiao, are you okay?” He examined her from head to toe.
Qiao Mu shook her head. They went into attack mode when they heard movents coming from the left side.
Luckily, it wasn’t a zombie that moved the boulder, but the Little Despot, Dao Wuji, and them.
“Everybody should be buried under the rubble nearby. We’ll have to move away so of the rocks on top to regroup with everyone before we think of a way to dig ourselves out,” Duanmu Qing analyzed.
Crown Prince Mo nodded. “We shouldn’t be far from the entrance. There are too many uncertainties if we use the transfer talisman matrix. On the off chance it transfers us back to the passageway where we ca from, it’d be faster to dig out a path ourselves.”
The little fatty nodded. “Okay! Then let’s get to work.”
Three hours later, Qiao Mu and the others successfully dug out the people from Sunlight Academy, Shuangfeng Academy, and Honghui Academy.
Cao Dan coughed several tis in a row with a dirtied face before cupping his hands toward Zhou Danjin and company. “Many thanks. Ugh, cough, cough! What should we do now?”
“I’ve determined the location of the exit, so now we need everybody to work together to dig out a path.” Ma Ta crossed his arms and cast the people from Sunlight Academy a sidelong look. “You don’t have a problem, right?”
“Of course! Cough. Cough, cough, no, no problem at all,” Cao Dan bobbed his head in reply.
The ntors from the other academies also nodded their heads.
At this ti, getting out of here was naturally the most important task at hand.
Everybody worked hard to dig a tunnel in the direction that Ma Ta had scouted out.
Three people dug together in front, and they would rotate out when they got tired.
Additionally, everybody was extrely thankful and felt lucky that they had Miss Qiao supplying them endlessly with food and water.
Their beasts were naturally not suited to be in this kind of narrow tunnel due to their large bodies, but one of the Sunlight Academy students had a tunneling rat mystic beast. This helped them imnsely, which was an unexpected surprise.
After continuing to dig for four to five days, they finally neared the surface. They could even make out a ray of sunlight streaming in.
