Chapter 75
The man's words silenced the four people present.
Lan Ji and Bai Zhou were stunned. Zhou Yuli was the only one left struggling to hold on to the air, blood seeping from the corners of his mouth. Pei Zhao exclaimed, "Stop it first. We are also looking for Miao Yi!"
The man quickly caught the key words, raised his hand, and the powerful wire was removed in an instant.
The four of them stood up in a panic. Pei Zhao wiped the blood from Zhou Yuli's mouth and asked, "Are you okay?"
Zhou Yuli nodded silently and blocked Pei Zhao behind him without leaving any trace.
The man sneered, and before he raised his hand, the scene in front of him changed. It was exactly the scene of the gymnasium. All the students were lying on the ground in unison, giving people the illusion that this was a "mass grave".
Bai Zhou quickly locked onto Zhou Ran's location and ran over with Lan Ji.
The man confronted Zhou Yuli with disdain in his eyes and said, "What's wrong?"
Zhou Yuli said in a deep voice: "Pure White Hell."
The man narrowed his eyes: "What is that place?"
Zhou Yuli sneered: "Your Excellency doesn't even know this."
Pei Zhao looked at Zhou Yuli and this man bickering back and forth, his face full of shock.
When did Zhou Yuli become so good at confronting others?
Is this still Zhou Yuli?
But Pei Zhao obviously didn't say these words out loud. Even under Zhou Yuli's somewhat "aggressive" sarcasm, even the men fell silent.
"Anyway, I feel he is nearby. You must find him, otherwise I will raze this place to the ground." The man said this and left.
Pei Zhao and Zhou Yuli were left staring at each other.
Pei Zhao couldn't help but say, "...If he hadn't said that we were going to look for Miu Yi."
Without caring about anything else, Pei Zhao immediately thought of Zhou Ran and pulled Zhou Yuli back. Because Miu Yi's father had removed all the black fog, Bai Zhou's firelight actually penetrated into the completely dark environment.
Under the light of the fire, the four people quickly found Zhou Ran.
"Zhou Ran, wake up." After Bai Zhou shook him vigorously, Zhou Ran actually woke up slowly, along with other students present.
But the strange thing is that their expressions all look dull.
Pei Zhao squatted in front of Zhou Ran: "Zhou Ran? Do you know who I am? Zhou Ran?" But Zhou Ran did not respond.
"It must have been that old guy who did it!" Bai Zhou said with certainty, "I knew he wouldn't be so kind as to just release the person to us."
Pei Zhao was also a little discouraged. He whispered to Zhou Yuli, "Go and see how the others are doing."
Zhou Yuli quickly looked around and came back, whispering in Pei Zhao's ear: "Same situation."
All the students present, including those in the audience, about thirty or forty people, looked dazed and stupid after being woken up. They didn't look like they had just woken up, but as if their souls had been sucked out.
The scene couldn't help but feel a little weird.
"...It seems that we must find Miu Yi first, otherwise the old guy will not release these people." Bai Zhou said.
"You guys watch here, Zhou Yuli and I will go." Pei Zhao said decisively.
"No!" Bai Zhou and Lan Ji said in unison, "It's too dangerous!"
What kind of place is the White Hell? The last time the five of them went there together, they were all completely defeated there.
However, Pei Zhao still shook his head: "Five people will make you look too big. Don't worry, I have a way."
Pei Zhao insisted, so Bai Zhou and Lan Ji couldn't go even if they wanted to. They could only try to reassure Pei Zhao: "...We will guard this place well, don't worry."
A white light flashed, and the figures of Pei Zhao and Zhou Yuli appeared in a vast white wasteland.
This was their second time here. Pei Zhao's memory of the last time was not very good. He had some difficulty breathing and couldn't help but hold the hand of the person next to him tightly.
Zhou Yuli held it with his backhand, and the two of them clasped their fingers together. Zhou Yuli whispered in Pei Zhao's ear: "Don't be afraid, there will be no danger this time."
"Yeah." Pei Zhao nodded heavily, but he still felt uneasy.
But soon, he discovered that what Zhou Yuli said was not an exaggeration. The vines spreading around Zhou Yuli's body swirled behind him like the tail of a nine-tailed fox, protecting them.
Pei Zhao was surprised: "This is..."
Zhou Yuli smiled faintly: "Every failure makes one wiser. I have thought of some instant methods that may be able to protect us."
This is indeed a good method. If there is any disturbance, Zhou Yuli will immediately use a vine "tail" to wrap up Pei Zhao. Fortunately, they didn't encounter too many setbacks along the way.
It wasn't long before they arrived at the same place they were last time.
Pei Zhao raised his head and looked upwards. The last time, it was right here that a huge piece of flesh suddenly opened up and blood fell out. This time…
But now it seems that the entire ceiling is a blended white, without any cracks visible.
Zhou Yuli obviously also remembered what happened at that time. He held Pei Zhao with one hand and used a wooden vine to jump to a high place.
"It's too dangerous." Zhou Yuli said.
The terrain nearby was different from the last time, except for one flat ground that they were very familiar with. That was where they fell.
"Sudi said that after passing through the Pure White Hell we will reach a new world. Should we go through there?" Pei Zhao said uncertainly.
"We can give it a try." Zhou Yuli thought about it, and the vines quickly weaved into a dense net, clinging tightly to the high stone wall nearby, and then he jumped down holding Pei Zhao.
The vines tied a knot around their clasped hands, "Just go down like this. If there's any problem, the vines will pull us up."
Pei Zhao nodded: "Okay."
The two walked slowly to the location of the black hole and saw clearly that, unlike other places, the snow here was only a thin layer, as if it was not piled up thickly, but a thin layer floating on the black hole.
A very curious scene.
But they have traveled to so many worlds, so they are not surprised by anything. Pei Zhao drew the mirror whip with his free hand, raised his hand and swung it vigorously -
In an instant, snowflakes were flying everywhere, and the blown snowflakes fell all over them. Pei Zhao lowered his head and saw a bottomless black hole in front of him.
"This is it." Pei Zhao looked at Zhou Yuli with a worried look on his face.
"Yeah." Zhou Yuli responded softly, tightened the vine in his hand to make sure it wouldn't break in the middle, then lowered his head and asked Pei Zhao: "Are you ready?"
Pei Zhao had one hand tied tightly to Zhou Yuli by vines, and with the other hand he held Zhou Yuli's arms. He almost sat on Zhou Yuli's arms, leaning against them tightly, and said, "I'm ready."
Zhou Yuli's eyes swept across Pei Zhao's trembling eyelashes. His heart moved slightly, but he quickly retracted his gaze. With a normal expression, he looked at the abyss in front of him and jumped down.
Pei Zhao only felt the rustling sound of wind passing by his ears.
The surroundings were pure black, unlike any visible color. This black made him feel numb, as if everything in the world no longer existed.
But the support of his body and the warmth he felt told him that Zhou Yuli was still there.
They fell at a very fast speed, and they didn't know how long it took until they saw a tiny spot of light appear in front of them, gradually getting bigger. Pei Zhao's pupils suddenly dilated, but a whip appeared in his hand reflexively, spinning rapidly and slowly slowing down.
The spot of light gradually expanded and finally completely enveloped them.
Pei Zhao finally saw the scene clearly—
They were above a cloud of mist. At your feet is a small peasant village that looks like a landscape painting.
The mirror whip spun rapidly, bringing the two people down safely like a bamboo dragonfly.
"Is this... the country?" Pei Zhao asked.
He is almost confused, isn't there a trace of error? But the style here doesn't seem to be related to Western vampires no matter how you look at it!
Zhou Yuli's face was a little pale. The excessive use of the wooden vine made him dazed for a moment and he staggered. Pei Zhao hurriedly supported him, only then he noticed that his face looked bad.
"Are you okay? Let's take a break." Pei Zhao said immediately.
Zhou Yuli was speechless and nodded silently. The two of them simply sat on the ground.
The surrounding environment is nice, with small bridges, flowing water and houses. Pei Zhao looked at Zhou Yuli's dry lips and was just thinking about whether to get some water. Zhou Yuli seemed to see through his thoughts and pulled Pei Zhao into his arms: "Don't go, stay with me for a while."
Pei Zhao looked around and saw no one, then he leaned into Zhou Yuli's arms with a blushing face.
"Are you saying that Miu Yi is really here?" Pei Zhao couldn't help asking as he looked at Zhou Yuli with his eyes closed.
Zhou Yuli didn't even open his eyes. "It's possible."
Pei Zhao blinked, his eyes fell on Zhou Yuli's lips, and he boldly reached out and touched them: "Why?"
Zhou Yuli's Adam's apple moved, and he opened his eyes, looking at Pei Zhao helplessly. There was something surging in his eyes that Pei Zhao couldn't quite understand. "I really like Chinese culture."
Pei Zhao had nothing to say about this answer. Zhou Yuli was right. For a vampire, his love for Chinese culture was truly fanatical.
His favorite food is dumplings - he even puts away his fangs when eating dumplings in order to make it easier for him to eat them.
"So this is his fantasy world?" Pei Zhao asked, his attention still on Zhou Yuli's lips, completely unaware that the man in front of him had eyes that were so dark that they looked like they were about to drip with tears.
"Pei Zhao. Stop looking." Zhou Yuli's voice was hoarse. He suppressed the impulse in his body and said in a deep voice, "If you look at me again... I..."
Pei Zhao was leaning in Zhou Yuli's arms, and the parts of his body were inevitably touching. If Pei Zhao couldn't react to Zhou Yuli's voice, he would be a real fool. Pei Zhao's face flushed, and he jumped up. "You!" Pei Zhao pointed at Zhou Yuli. "It's broad daylight, in broad daylight!"
Zhou Yuli looked innocent: "I..."
Pei Zhao didn't listen, he ran away and sat cross-legged on the other side to rest.
Although he was said to have run away, he didn't run very far, just about two steps away, and the whole person was just within Zhou Yuli's sight.
Pei Zhao thought... forget it, if he ran too far Zhou Yuli would worry again. But my face still burned badly.
Zhou Yuli silently stretched out a vine and wrapped Pei Zhao around him, then he closed his eyes again and fell into a deep sleep due to exhaustion.
After the temperature of Pei Zhao's face returned to normal, he noticed the wooden vine beside him. His heart softened and he turned around, quietly watching and protecting Zhou Yuli.
