What is Su Li's background? She just turned into wisps of green smoke, yet there was a faint glimmer of white light. Who could she be?
They wanted to follow, but the yin energy here was too strong. At first glance, the caves were connected and intricate. If they delayed any longer, they feared that Mo Tian's plan would be wasted.
If we don't leave now, when will we?
"Whoosh!" As it passed the cave entrance, the petals vanished, and a thin red light, intertwined with blue light, like a tiny flying insect, skimmed across the ground and disappeared in an instant...
"Cousin, did you see anything go out?" The bat on the left side of the cave entrance paused for a moment, then turned to ask the bat on the right.
"No!" The bat cousin had just finished yawning, retracted his raised wings, and shook his head in reply.
"Oh, maybe I was just seeing things. I think I saw a light." My bat cousin nodded, then thought for a moment and said, "Maybe I should go in and check if the ball is broken?"
"Then you go and see, I'll stay here and keep watch." The chubby cousin gestured towards the cave with his lip, and as he watched his younger cousin fly into the cave, he let out a cold laugh, "Heh heh, how stupid! How could the boss's Blood Corpse Array possibly come out..."
A moment later, the bat cousin returned, glanced at his cousin who was still sitting on the right stone wall, and seemed a little embarrassed. "It's okay, everything is as usual."
"Pfft, since you're my cousin, I'll teach you a trick." The chubby cousin spat out a mouthful of black liquid, nearly tumbling off a slightly protruding wall. He quickly steadied himself. "Those 'dutiful' displays shouldn't be shown when the boss isn't around. Because even if you perform well then, no one will see it. And even if enemies come in, small fry like us usually can't beat them. To save your life, the best thing to do is to quickly escape and call for help..."
Not far from the blood orb, beside the path opposite, there was a small cave. An oil lamp hung on the wall, burning with a faint light. Inside the cave was only a stone bed, covered with simple, slightly damp bedding...
Su Li walked over quickly, sat on the edge of the stone bed, rolled over and lay down on the bed, but she had just closed her eyes.
For some reason, the words the Spirit King left behind before he departed popped into my mind.
The Spirit King did not open his mouth, yet he clearly spoke, while the Thousand Buddhas beside him seemed not to hear anything. Otherwise, he would have reacted. This is strange. Why can I hear it?
What's even stranger is that upon hearing this, I felt a selfish urge. I recalled how, after meeting Qianfo, I had pretended to be a good person under his instructions, fabricated the story of Shuiling, and impersonated the phantom...
In every single one of these matters, had I ever hidden even the slightest secret from him?
Who am I? Why is the Spirit King testing me? Tossing and turning, Su Li raised her arm, her sleeve slipped down, and she saw the strange wound from the bite of the Thousand Buddhas. Her heart turned cold.
In an instant, a sharp pain that she had never dared to express suddenly erupted from her heart, spreading throughout her body in a flash. Su Li's face turned deathly pale, and she let out a soft moan of pain.
What's going on? I was numb a long time ago, and the wound had healed by now, so why is it so painful now?
Alas! Who is sighing? In this deep, dark abyss, besides myself, who else can make a sound? Or am I mishearing?
Su Li frowned, gasped, and looked away.
She lowered her arm, lay flat on the stone bed, and groped to cover the wound with her sleeve. She slowly closed her eyes, and two lines of tears welled up in her eyes...
