Zuan sighed: "I'm telling you the truth, but you just won't believe me."

As he spoke, he arrived at the site of the landslide, placed his hand on it, and slowly channeled his energy into the wall.

He didn't throw a direct punch, after all, they were underground, and he was worried about causing a secondary collapse.

Instead, it used a gentle force to slowly loosen the central soil layer, while simultaneously using vital energy to protect the surrounding area, gradually drawing the soil out.

After a while, a long, round hole appeared in front of them.

"You're all sweating profusely." Yu Yanluo took out a handkerchief and wiped the fine sweat from his forehead.

Looking closely at her breathtakingly beautiful face, Zuan couldn't help but lift her chin and kiss her.

Caught off guard, Yu Yanluo initially gave him a light tap, but later responded emotionally.

"You're so beautiful~" After a long while, their lips parted, and Zuan exclaimed sincerely.

“You’re handsome too.” Yu Yanluo’s eyes sparkled, truly like the most beautiful gems in the world.

"Let's take care of business first." Zu'an knew she must be very sad after going through so much misery, so he didn't want to take advantage of her at this time. "I'll be in front, be careful."

After saying that, he climbed into the round hole.

Seeing his clumsy, sticking-out rear end, Yu Yanluo chuckled. As intelligent as she was, how could she not understand that he was taking care of her feelings? A warm feeling welled up in her heart, and her gaze towards him softened even more.

The two climbed through the narrow, round hole. With the elemental shield protecting them, they weren't worried about getting covered in dust.

After walking a short distance to the other side, several more forks in the road appeared ahead.

"This way." Yu Yanluo quickly found the symbol left by Xingnu, and the two followed it.

As the mine tunnels grew wider, based on previous experience, there should be a rest stop for underground miners not far ahead. This place usually roughly sorts and processes the mined ore and also serves as a distribution center for supplies, so it is often a fairly spacious area.

Just as Yu Yanluo was about to say something, Zu An's expression changed. He pointed over there and whispered to her, "Shh, there seems to be someone over there."

Now that the mine tunnels are shrouded in black mist, his senses are not as sharp as usual.

"Is it Xingnu and the others?" Yu Yanluo's face showed surprise and delight.

"I don't know. This place is too eerie right now. We should be careful." Zuan shielded her behind him, and the two of them crept over quietly.

Just as they were about to sneak a peek to check what was happening over there, the sound of a rattle drum came from above, and the two of them immediately felt a sharp pain in their heads.

At the same time, a slender sword pierced through like a venomous snake.
