Chapter 8: Perhaps underground, the two ancestors are engaged in a fierce battle.



Su Diandian was speechless.

Anyway, she has already conveyed the message.

Whether the brother and sister survived to reach Cangwu Mountain was none of her concern.

However, despite thinking this way, Su Diandian still flipped through the information about Lu Jian again.

Sure enough, it did say on the label that the entire Lu family had been wiped out.

In other words, these two half-grown children won't survive.

Thinking of this, Su Diandian couldn't help but sigh at the cruel twist of fate.

Others desperately want to live, but are destined to die young.

She, however, wanted to die but couldn't.

Lu Chi glared at her with displeasure. "Hey, stupid woman, why aren't you saying anything? Tsk tsk, you were lying to us just now, weren't you?"

Su Diandian's lips curled slightly, a wicked thought forming in her mind.

She said to Lu Chi, "Hey kid, come closer, I have a secret to tell you."

Lu Chi hesitated for a moment, but still went over.

Su Diandian said, enunciating each word clearly, "Actually, Lu Jian has become a ghost, and he's watching you."

Lu Chi glanced left and right discreetly.

Finally, he raised his head and said, "I don't believe it. There are no ghosts in this world."

Wow, that's pretty materialistic.

Are you sure you grew up in the world of cultivation?

Su Diandian retorted, "If you can cultivate immortality, why can't ghosts exist?"

Lu Chi retorted, "If there are ghosts, then why didn't the Lu family patriarch emerge from underground to help when the Lu family was in trouble?"

Ah, this...

Su Diandian glanced at Lu Jian before answering.

"You're the only one with ancestors who can't have them? Maybe the ancestors of the Lu and Wang families are fighting fiercely underground."

Lu Chi thought it made sense, but he was still unconvinced, so he could only snort to show his disdain.

At that moment, the candle in the lamp suddenly went out.

Lu Xiang'er screamed.

Lu Chi comforted her, "Don't be afraid, it's just that the candle went out."

As he spoke, he rummaged through a wooden box in the corner and took out a new candle, which he then lit.

The dim candlelight illuminated the darkroom once again.

At this moment, Su Diandian had already closed her eyes and fallen into a deep sleep.

In her dream, she saw the skyscrapers of Earth, her family and friends, and everything she missed.

Lost in her sweet dream, Su Diandian was completely unaware of the passage of time.

She felt that everything in her dreams was real.

Half a month has passed in the blink of an eye.

She remained in a daze throughout, half-asleep and half-awake.

Lu Xiang'er fed her a porridge made from wheat cakes every day to keep her alive.

Lu Chi was responsible for checking her injuries.

On the sixteenth day, in her dream, Su Diandian was having lunch with her family.

But suddenly the family members in front of him became blurry.

Tears unconsciously streamed down Su Diandian's tightly closed eyes.

Lu Jian reached out to wipe away her tears.

However, before his hand even touched her face, Su Diandian slowly opened her eyelids.

She wiped away her tears, her mouth opening and mumbling, "Lu Duan Gou, please... kill me... I want... I want..."

I want to go home...

However, the second half of the sentence remained unsaid.

Lu Jian choked up and whispered, "You do have feelings for me, don't you?"

However, Su Diandian was in a daze and didn't hear clearly at all.

Lu Xiang'er, who was standing next to her, came over.

"Second brother, it sounded like sister-in-law was calling eldest brother's name just now."

Hearing this, Lu Chi, who was practicing his martial arts diligently, said disdainfully, "He calls his brother 'short dog'! You're not allowed to call her 'sister-in-law,' she's not our sister-in-law."

Lu Xiang'er pouted but didn't say anything.

At this moment, Su Diandian fully regained consciousness.

She could feel that her injuries had mostly healed.

So she sat up from the wooden bed and looked around the entire secret room.

Lu Chi was sitting cross-legged on the ground, practicing his martial arts with all his might.

Lu Xiang'er slept on another wooden bed.

This little girl must be terrified.

She was even sobbing softly in her sleep.

Lu Jian stood to the side with his arms crossed, saying, "The Wang family has already left."

Su Diandian's eyes darted around, and she volunteered, "Then I'll go out and scout out the situation."

"No." Lu Jian resolutely refused. "If this is a scheme by the Wang family envoy, you will surely die."

"That's great, anyway, I don't want to live anymore." Su Diandian smiled.

Lu Chi, who was meditating, heard her voice, looked around for a moment, and then asked, "Who are you talking to?"

Su Diandian pointed in the direction of Lu Jian, "Didn't I tell you, your brother is here?"

Lu Chi pouted, "You must be missing my brother terribly, right? But you slept for a really long time, a full fifteen days."

After saying that, he stood up and went forward to check on Su Diandian's injuries.

Su Diandian didn't stop him and let him do whatever he wanted.

"Yes, that Grade 5 Healing Pill really works wonders. You're almost fully recovered." Lu Chi finally showed a hint of relief.

But then he remembered that the bodies of his relatives outside had not yet been collected.

Moreover, the remaining food can only last for another three or four days at most.

We have to find a solution.

After a long silence, he finally couldn't hold back any longer.

"There shouldn't be anyone outside anymore. I'm going to help my parents with their funeral arrangements." He said, and started walking out.

Lu Jian went to stop him, but it was all in vain.

So Lu Jian could only look at Su Diandian with pleading eyes.

Su Diandian received the signal.

She jumped off the wooden bed, took three steps at a time, and delivered a karate chop that knocked the man unconscious.

Anyway, this kid is a stubborn bastard.

If you can take action, don't talk; save your breath.

After dragging Lu Chi back to the wooden bed, Su Diandian walked towards the exit of the darkroom, panting.

Lu Jian chased after him, "What do you want to do?"
