"I..."
Yu Shuang hesitated to speak, clearly not having an answer to the question in her heart.
Bai Qiu blinked and looked elsewhere, calmly saying, "Choices, though made in an instant, can affect the distant future. I understand your hesitation. In fact, we hesitated in front of Su Chengyu as well, but ultimately we chose to trust him."
"Su... big brother?"
"Yes, in this world where the future is unknown and muddled, he offered us a visible future. Even if that future is as illusory as a bubble, it’s already enough for us to follow."
Yu Shuang nodded silently, not saying anything further.
Bai Qiu chuckled lightly, "I know that giving up a family is no small thing, after all, it’s the place that gave you life and raised you, but you must understand, you were most certainly not born into this world for so-called family. That can be your goal or ideal, but it should never be your burden. Be clear about what you truly want, I’m very much looking forward to your answer."
Boom!
Another violent tremor echoed the mont Bai Qiu finished speaking, the surrounding space visibly twisted, accompanied by a powerful oppressive force, swiftly assaulting everyone present.
Bai Qiu’s brows furrowed, not yet having moved when Yu Shuang acted first, using the Heavenly Gang Divine Wind to envelop everyone within, thereby nullifying the pressure entirely.
Before Bai Qiu could speak, Yu Shuang was a step ahead.
"This little matter, let handle it. I haven’t completely made up my mind yet, but Sister NanZhi is right, at least now we’re walking on the sa path."
Bai Qiu was taken aback montarily, understanding that Yu Shuang referred to finding Su Chengyu, and thus nodded.
"Bai Qiu, what’s causing the tremor?"
Long Ao Tian, who was responsible for leading the group, inquired toward Bai Qiu. As the team leader, he was naturally the first to be impacted and most severely affected.
"I don’t know, but judging by the location, it doesn’t seem like the place where the Demonic Path fled, it’s more like the other side, and this disturbance..."
Bai Qiu didn’t finish speaking before Yu Shuang had already reacted, "Is it Sister Qianxiao?"
Ling Xiao also nodded beside her, "Although the aura is chaotic, there’s indeed a trace of the Road of Destruction interspersed within, most likely caused by her."
"If it’s a blessing, not a disaster; if it’s a disaster, we can’t avoid it. Just take care of what’s in front of us."
Seeing Yu Shuang’s sowhat worried appearance beside her, Bai Qiu decisively stated.
With Xu Nanzhi absent, she was currently the brain of the team.
"Since we entered this wretched place, there’s not been a single good news."
Still attempting to use Vermilion Bird Divine Power to help Xu Nanzhi break through the Demonic Qi, Ling Xiao clumsily spoke, clearly annoyed.
Though her words were aggressive, the aura within her was evidently sowhat disordered, the forceful interference having pronounced repercussions on her.
"Good news, I sensed the aura of the little Taoist. Sister Shuang."
Long Ao Tian spoke, and Yu Shuang imdiately understood, using the Earth Core Lotus to communicate with Chen ngng.
After three breaths, a space door defying the laws appeared before them, seeing the aura of Yu Yanshu upon it, Long Ao Tian unhesitatingly led the group straight through.
Bang!
Long Ao Tian’s figure landed heavily on the ground, creating a loud noise. Bai Qiu turned over in a leap, delivering the Xu Nanzhi encased in Demonic Qi to Chen ngng and Yu Yanshu.
Seeing the scene before her, Chen ngng imdiately asked, "Is Sister in there?"
"Yes, we’re all sowhat helpless, so we can only rely on you."
Bai Qiu calmly replied and then noticed Yu Yanshu’s condition was far worse than when they separated, frowning.
"Leave the girl to us, you try to get Nanzhi out."
"Okay."
Chen ngng nodded without wasting words, though she wasn’t entirely sure, she wouldn’t abandon even a sliver of opportunity.
Long Ao Tian and Ling Xiao stayed by Chen ngng’s side to protect her, while Bai Qiu led Yu Shuang to Yu Yanshu.
Seeing the marks on Yu Yanshu obviously left by others recently, she frowned and asked, "Girl, which Demonic Path did you encounter?"
Yu Yanshu nodded slightly, albeit with difficulty, "Repairing the seal is more troubleso than we anticipated. Although Master Uncle’s thods can achieve it, it requires a considerable ti span and aid from external materials. But while we were preparing, Cui Manlou already led people to attack."
Bai Qiu looked toward the already opened door, her expression solemn, "He’s already went in?"
"Yes, that guy seed to be in a hurry for sothing, going in with his team without even minding ."
Yu Yanshu’s words made Bai Qiu more uneasy internally; she had no idea what lay beyond.
But whether it was the things Su Zhedian had spent decades deploying or Su Chengyu currently within those realms, they could not afford any accidents, regardless of which Cui Manlou was pursuing.
"Are we going in too?"
Yu Shuang tentatively asked, knowing this decision was fraught with risk, considering they seed ill-equipped to deal with Cui Manlou, not to ntion what Yu Yanshu had ntioned, Demonic Path infiltrated prior to Cui Manlou’s entrance.
"Seems like there’s no choice."
Bai Qiu said softly, glancing at Xu Nanzhi’s location, aware that even if Xu Nanzhi were conscious, this would likely be the decision.
Only...
"Girl, you said earlier that the seal could be repaired, right?"
Yu Yanshu nodded, "With the capabilities of Master Uncle ngng, alongside my assistance, it should be feasible. But it requires certain materials for the formation’s repair."
"What level?"
"Beasts above Hollow Vacuum."
Yu Yanshu’s voice was very small, but it clearly reached Bai Qiu’s ears.
Upon hearing this, Ling Xiao’s brows imdiately furrowed, instinctively speaking, "What do you an, at this point you’re still targeting us."
"Enough!"
Bai Qiu’s words halted Ling Xiao’s retort as she looked toward Yu Yanshu who wished to explain, "There’s no other choice, is there?"
"Not exactly impossible to find substitutes, it’s just..."
"Can’t find them, right?"
Bai Qiu laughed lightly, understanding Yu Yanshu’s aning.
Yu Yanshu shut her mouth silently, naturally understanding the reasons for Ling Xiao’s anger, but with the situation at this point, she needed to solve the imdiate problem swiftly, as she least wished for her master Su Chengyu to fall into the hands of the Demonic Path.
"Then are you not..."
"I said enough."
Bai Qiu interrupted Ling Xiao once more, Ling Xiao resentfully turned his head, saying no more.
Yu Yanshu also lowered her head, "Sorry, that’s not what I ant, I just..."
"No need for niceties, I’m not Ling Xiao. Although I don’t trust you, I trust Su Chengyu."
"Elder..."
Yu Yanshu was surprised, not expecting Bai Qiu to say such words under these circumstances.
"Tell plainly what’s needed."
"Boiling demon blood, Illusionary Demon Bone, and... Demon Emperor’s Demon Pill."
