Soon after...
Seven people carrying lanterns walked down the dark passageway.
With the seven lamps, the surrounding dark environment began to brighten.
Wang Feng and Jiang Hanxi were at the very back, if we were to rank them.
Wang Feng was last, Jiang Hanxi was second to last, Leng Ningyue was third to last, female disciple A was first, female disciple B was second, female disciple C was third, and female disciple D was fourth.
(My older brothers and sisters are so smart, they should be able to understand this, right?)
With Jiang Hanxi acting as a human wall in front of Wang Feng, Leng Ningyue naturally couldn't ask any of the trivial questions in her mind.
She really wants to ask Wang Feng these questions:
Why are there only the two of you here?
Have you and the Palace Master done anything shady?
And didn't you die several years ago?!
Unfortunately, she couldn't ask any of these questions, and even if she could, she couldn't be so direct.
After thinking for a moment, Leng Ningyue secretly glanced at Jiang Hanxi. Their cold eyes met, which startled Leng Ningyue so much that her heart trembled.
She truly hadn't expected that the Palace Master had been watching her the whole time, and that his eyes seemed to hold some unreadable meaning.
"Um, Hanxi, ah, could I have a few words with Saintess Leng?"
Wang Feng gently poked Jiang Hanxi's back. He didn't realize it until he poked her, but it felt like he had hit some meridian.
Jiang Hanxi's body stiffened slightly, but she quickly recovered.
After listening to Wang Feng's words, Jiang Hanxi first looked at Wang Feng, and then at Leng Ningyue.
However, she still shifted her feet slightly to make room for them, since she couldn't keep them from talking forever.
Finally, I can talk to my fellow villagers!
Leng Ningyue was secretly delighted, really wanting to gossip with her fellow villager to her heart's content.
However, since there were other people around, he had no choice but to pretend and couldn't say too much.
"You idiot, are you sure we can find the exit based on your route?"
Leng Ningyue's smile, which had been slightly smiling, froze upon hearing the word "silly thing," turning into a forced, insincere smile.
"I...I don't know either..."
Leng Ningyue felt a little uneasy. There were too many underground passages. If she ran around aimlessly, who knew if the walls would change?
"I don't understand!?"
Upon hearing this, Wang Feng really wanted to slap her, so he simply walked past her, ignoring her completely.
He left Leng Ningyue aside and walked to the female disciple in front of him.
Blah blah blah...
After asking the question, Wang Feng fell silent.
According to their route, they should be close to the exit by now.
This is also why Wang Feng couldn't find the exit he used to take.
After descending into the tunnel and triggering the mechanism, the passage changed, and the exit seemed to disappear into thin air.
"Um, I'd like to ask, where did you go several years ago?"
Seeing that Wang Feng was unwilling to pay attention to her, Leng Ningyue subconsciously tugged at Wang Feng's sleeve with her divine sense.
Moreover, although the words were very ordinary, and he just wanted to ask a simple question, Wang Feng didn't think there was anything wrong with it.
Just as Wang Feng was about to answer Leng Ningyue's question, someone suddenly exploded.
These words were so grating to Jiang Hanxi's ears: "[Where were you years ago?]" Wasn't this just showing concern for him?
The surrounding air suddenly turned cold, and the passage became chilly. Leng Ningyue and Wang Feng's expressions instantly froze.
"Don't touch me! As the Holy Maiden of the Ice Palace, men and women should not touch each other. Besides, my wife is right here!"
Wang Feng quickly slapped Leng Ningyue's hand away and hurriedly took several steps back, creating a considerable distance between them.
The four female disciples carrying lanterns at the front also turned around and looked over, their expressions all filled with doubt.
"I'm sorry, I was rude, but I was just checking in on my junior brother's whereabouts."
Leng Ningyue's words only made things worse, further confirming her concern for Wang Feng.
"He's been with me the whole time, you don't need to ask any more questions."
Jiang Hanxi's clear and melodious voice echoed through the passage, causing the four female disciples at the front to forget to watch where they were going and look on with amusement.
This extremely beautiful woman looks a little angry, but even when she's angry, she's still so beautiful.
This was the thought of the four female disciples, who kept looking back as they ate the melon.
"good......"
Leng Ningyue felt a little uneasy. She never expected that the Palace Master's jealousy was so easily triggered.
Unbeknownst to Leng Ningyue, this was also thanks to Wang Feng's efforts. [Then I can only give it to Saintess Leng...]
"careful!"
The female disciple walking in front suddenly narrowed her eyes when she saw Jiang Hanxi behind her and hurriedly shouted.
Wang Feng, having just retreated, found himself in front of Jiang Hanxi and quickly turned around.
He quickly pulled her over and dragged her to his side, shielding her tightly.
Whoosh!!
A figure so black it was almost invisible darted past, and Wang Feng's arm was only grazed by its form, instantly leaving a pit from the corrosion.
Holy crap! It even contains sulfuric acid?!
Wang Feng gasped inwardly, ignoring his own injuries, as the dark figure was about to rush into the midst of the seven of them.
Braised Palm Technique!
With a thought, Wang Feng quickly raised his palm and struck out. The people standing there were not just for show; each move emitted waves of spiritual energy.
"ah!!!"
A mournful scream rang out from the dark shadows that had been blasted open.
