Chapter 229 Falling into the Cave



Bai Ziyun said to Xiao Ning, "Try to dig it." Then Xiao Ning picked up the tools and started digging. He waved the tools carefully, with anticipation and nervousness in every move. As the digging went deeper, Xiao Ning's heartbeat became faster and faster, as if he could hear the sound of his heartbeat echoing in his ears.

Finally, when he saw the fire ganoderma, his eyes sparkled with surprise, like the brightest stars in the night sky. He carefully picked the fire ganoderma, as if holding a precious pearl, afraid that he would damage it if he was not careful.

He showed it to Bai Ziyun excitedly, his voice full of admiration: "It really exists! Master, you are amazing!"

However, at this moment, Xiao Ning's excitement made him forget to hide his identity, and he directly called out "Master". This name was like thunder, exploding in the air, making Bai Ziyun's expression instantly become solemn.

Bai Ziyun stared at Xiao Ning closely, as if she wanted to see the secret deep in his heart through his eyes. With a hint of surprise and confusion in her voice, she asked slowly, "What did you call me?"

Xiao Ning was a little nervous for a moment, and he began to touch the tip of his nose unconsciously, trying to hide his uneasiness. His fingers trembled slightly, showing his inner panic.

"I...I call you Bai...Senior Bai."

Xiao Ning's voice was a little stuttering. He tried to keep his tone calm, but he couldn't completely hide his inner nervousness.

Bai Ziyun was increasingly suspicious of the young man named Ning Que, but when she saw that Ning Que also had the habit of touching his nose when he was nervous, she instantly realized something. She held Xiao Ning's hand tightly, as if she wanted to grasp the last clue.

"Who are you? Why do you have the habit of touching your nose?" There was a hint of urgency in Bai Ziyun's voice. She wanted to know the true identity of this young man.

Xiao Ning was instantly very nervous. He tried to pull Bai Ziyun's arm away, but Bai Ziyun refused to let go. As the two of them were in a stalemate, Xiao Ning accidentally stepped into the pit he had just dug and then stumbled. He lost his balance and his head hit a stone nearby.

There was a dull thud, and Xiao Ning made a painful sound. He rubbed his head, trying to ease the pain. Bai Ziyun looked at him and was about to question him again when suddenly a rumbling sound was heard.

Suddenly, the ground they were standing on trembled, and in an instant, dust flew up, and the entire ground began to shake. The ground beneath their feet cracked open, like a huge mouth that was about to swallow them in.

In an instant, the two fell down and disappeared into the endless darkness. Their figures were covered by dust, as if they had never existed.

Fenggang.

In the distant horizon, a strangely shaped spaceship with mysterious light was heading towards Fenggang at a slow and steady speed. The interior of the spaceship was spacious and bright, and the layout was very delicate and comfortable. At this moment, there were three women sitting in the cabin, they were Rong Rouxue, Chu Qian and Xiyue.

However, Xiao Ding did not go on this trip with the three people. Just as the spaceship was about to set sail, Xiao Ding hurried over to say goodbye to everyone and announced that he had some very important things to deal with, so he would have to leave for Fenggang a little later.

Not long after, the spaceship successfully arrived in front of the city wall of Fenggang. The hatch slowly opened, and the three anxious people quickly got off the spaceship and hurried into the city. Once they entered the city, they saw Yun Yao standing there waiting eagerly, as if she had been waiting for a long time. When Yun Yao saw Chu Qian and others coming, she immediately walked forward and held Chu Qian's hand tightly.

"Madam, you are finally here!" Yun Yao said with joy on her face.

Chu Qian smiled and showed her tenderness. She gently embraced Yun Yao in her arms and asked softly, "Yao'er, you have worked so hard during this period. By the way, where is Ning'er now?"

Hearing Chu Qian mention Ning'er, Yun Yao couldn't help but look puzzled, shook her head and replied: "Ning'er? Ning'er is not here?"

At this point, Chu Qian decided not to hide the truth anymore. She took a deep breath and said slowly, "In fact, Ning Que is the Ning'er we have been looking for."

As soon as these words came out, it was like a thunderclap exploding in Yun Yao's ears. She was immediately shocked, her eyes widened in disbelief, and she exclaimed: "What! Ning Que is actually Ning Er! But... then why doesn't he want to recognize us?"

Facing Yun Yao's surprise and doubt, Chu Qian frowned slightly, thought for a moment and explained: "Ning'er must have acted this way because she was worried that there were spies from the Piao Miao Sect lurking around you. If she rashly recognized you, she might alert the enemy."

Yun Yao couldn't help but frowned when she heard Chu Qian's answer. She then turned her gaze to You Rong Rouxue who was standing beside her and asked with a worried look on her face, "She...she really won't take Ning'er away?"

The worry was beyond words, as if only by hearing a negative answer could his heart be slightly calmed down.

Rong Rouxue looked at Yun Yao's worried look, and a trace of guilt surged in her heart. She took a deep breath, walked forward, and said solemnly and calmly:

"No, Miss Yunyao, it was indeed my fault before, which led to many misunderstandings and troubles. But please believe me, from now on, I will communicate well with Ning'er and will never let such a thing happen again. I hope you can put your mind at ease."

After hearing Rong Rouxue's sincere words, Yun Yao's tense heartstrings finally relaxed a little, but the worry still followed her like a shadow. However, seeing Rong Rouxue's promise, she could only choose to believe her temporarily, so she nodded slowly, indicating that she felt much more at ease. Then, she led the other three people and walked quickly towards the direction of Xia Mansion.

At the same time, Xiao Ning, who had fallen into the deep pit, finally began to regain some consciousness after a period of coma. He felt dizzy and felt as if he had been hit by a heavy hammer. He struggled to open his heavy eyelids, rubbed the back of his head with his hands, and then clenched his teeth, endured the pain from all parts of his body, and struggled to stand up.

After regaining consciousness, Xiao Ning's heart suddenly tightened, and he instantly remembered Bai Ziyun who fell into the pit with him. He was so anxious that he ignored his own pain and shouted loudly: "Senior Bai! Senior Bai! Where are you?" The voice echoed in the empty pit, but there was no response.

Just when Xiao Ning was extremely anxious, he suddenly heard a slight noise coming from the side. He was alerted and immediately looked in the direction of the sound. He saw something moving beside a pile of rocks not far away. Xiao Ning did not dare to delay and quickly ran to the front. He looked closely and found that it was Bai Ziyun lying quietly on a pile of rocks. But at this moment, her eyes were closed, her face was as pale as paper, and her expression was particularly stiff. She looked very bad.

Seeing this, Xiao Ning's heart suddenly rose to his throat. He carefully stretched out his hands and gently helped Bai Ziyun up, fearing that any big movement would bring her more pain. Then, he leaned down, leaned close to Bai Ziyun's ear, and called softly: "Senior Bai, wake up, Senior Bai..." The concern was beyond words and moved people.
