On the other side, Yan Xuehen and Yun Jianyue were fighting fiercely when they heard this terrifying sound and stopped at the same time.
"What is that sound?" Yun Jianyue frowned. As a Grandmaster, she sensed that the person making the sound was not someone to be trifled with.
"I don't know either. I heard it when I came down into the mine. It must be some kind of ferocious beast," Yan Xuehen replied, her brows furrowing slightly as she wondered if Zu'an had encountered this terrifying creature.
Huh, why am I so worried about him?
Yun Jianyue frowned slightly: "What kind of ferocious beast possesses such terrifying pressure?"
“The world is vast and full of wonders; we should have a sense of awe,” Yan Xuehen said. “Why don’t we just stop here? The thing that made the sound is no less powerful than us. If we both get injured, it will take advantage of us, which would be troublesome.”
She recalled the divination she had done before her departure, which yielded a very ominous result.
At the time, she was very curious. With her cultivation level, she could have done whatever she wanted in the world, so how could she have encountered such a terrible disaster?
At first, I thought it was that strange, black dagger from Zaun, but now I realize that this calamity is most likely from the Cloud Moon in front of me or some unknown terrifying thing.
She naturally didn't want to continue fighting.
Yun Jianyue sneered, "A mere unknown object is enough to frighten the dignified Abbot of Baiyujing Temple? In that case, you might as well just give up your life!"
Born into a demonic sect, she naturally possessed a ruthless aura. Sensing Yan Xuehen's intention to retreat, her fighting spirit immediately surged.
This is a perfect opportunity to avenge Ah Zu.
Thinking of Zu'an's appearance, the murderous aura in her eyes intensified, and she directly summoned the Changxin Palace Lantern, which immediately enveloped the originally dark mine with its pale yellow light.
"Crazy woman!" Yan Xuehen naturally knew how powerful the palace lantern light was, so she dared not be careless and hurriedly unleashed her Absolutely Frosty Domain.
The two have been rivals for many years, and have remained evenly matched for all these years. Now, she keenly sensed the other's murderous intent and realized that her mentality was off. If she continued fighting like this, she might die on the spot. So she stopped holding back and decided to deal with the woman in front of her first.
Although she had suffered considerable losses from the battle with Zuan and Yu Yanluo, her opponents were also injured, so she was naturally not afraid.
The two grandmasters began a clash at the domain level. The shattering of the laws at the boundary caused patches of land to be annihilated, and the entire mine began to shake violently as if an earthquake had struck.
However, the two women were no longer concerned about such things at this point, and they were fighting with all their might, neither daring to hold back even slightly.
At this point in the fight, whoever holds back is likely to be severely injured immediately.
Meanwhile, Zu'an and Yu Yanluo felt the mine tremble slightly and heard a series of loud rumbling noises. They looked at each other in confusion: "Could it be that Yan Xuehen is fighting with that roaring monster?"
Zuan was somewhat uneasy. He didn't know the origin of that mysterious creature, and he wondered if Yan Xuehen might be in danger.
After all, she was Chu Yan's master, and she had just used the Golden Phoenix's Unbreakable Bond skill on her, so she felt somewhat sorry for her.
However, he quickly chuckled. She was a grandmaster, an existence who could roam freely under the heavens, practically a human female tyrannosaurus. That mysterious creature might be afraid of her.
"Let's find Xingnu and the others first. This place always makes me uneasy." Yu Yanluo stood up from his embrace, straightened her disheveled clothes, and said with a blush.
"Fine." Zu'an cursed the mysterious creature in his heart. Why did it have to call out at that crucial moment?
The two had just built up the atmosphere to that point, and couldn't help but get to that point. Now that they've been interrupted and the atmosphere is gone, it's not appropriate to force them to continue.
The two then walked into the dark mine. Because of what had just happened, Yu Yanluo's face was flushed and she spoke much less.
Although she was a mature woman, she was a complete novice when it came to matters of the heart. Thinking about how she had almost lost her virginity in a daze, she felt both ashamed and anxious.
She wondered if he would think she was a frivolous woman if she agreed to his request so easily.
Zuan noticed her unusual mood, so he deliberately sighed, "Oh dear, what a pity."
Yu Yanluo was startled: "What's a pity?"
Zuan said, "It's a pity there were no spectators around just now, otherwise I could have earned so much envy and jealousy."
The key is Yu Yanluo's identity, and the countless suitors she has had over the years, which could contribute an unknown amount of anger to him.
Yu Yanluo scolded, "You pervert! How can you let outsiders see something like this!"
"Of course I'm just holding you and kissing you so others can see. What did you think I was talking about?" Zuan's expression was strange.
Yu Yanluo was extremely embarrassed and hurriedly swung her small fists to hit him.
In the midst of their playful banter, the awkwardness from just moments before vanished without a trace.
Suddenly, Zu'an's gaze fell on something in front of him: "Hmm, there seems to be something over there."
After saying that, he quickly walked over and picked up a palm-sized, notebook-like object.
Yu Yanluo followed and exclaimed in surprise, "This is the Yu family guards' notebook!"
Zuan was stunned: "Your guards are truly both scholarly and martial."
Yu Yanluo explained, "The main reason is that the Yu family guards have to work and guard this mine for a long time. The underground mine is full of dangers, and accidents happen every day. Once the mine collapses, it is impossible to rescue people in a short time."
"So later, every Yu family guard was equipped with a notebook, firstly to record daily tasks, and secondly to leave a last message for their family in case of any accident."
As she spoke, her expression grew somewhat somber, clearly indicating that similar incidents had occurred frequently over the years, and each time she personally returned their belongings to their families.
