"What are the conditions?" Zu'an was startled; something felt off.
In my past life, I read many stories where the man had something on the woman and then threatened her to do this or that. How come it's the other way around when it's my turn?
Seeing his nervous expression, Yun Jianyue suppressed a laugh: "Of course, you'll become mine."
"No, he's mine!" Yan Xuehen exclaimed anxiously.
Zuan: "???"
Yu Yanluo's red lips parted slightly, her face filled with shock.
Although she had just experienced a blissful feeling akin to becoming an immortal, how did these two know? They were Grandmasters, yet they disregarded their dignity and snatched her away like that.
Thinking about this, she felt it was necessary to come out and assert her sovereignty.
At this moment, Yun Jianyue noticed their expressions, and after a slight surprise, she realized what she meant: "You brat, what are you thinking? I meant you should become my disciple!"
Yan Xuehen also realized that there was indeed ambiguity in what the two had just said, and her cheeks flushed red as she glared fiercely at Zu An.
Zuan was also very frustrated, thinking, "Why did you two speak so vaguely?"
He coughed lightly: "Actually, I have a master, so I should always listen to her opinion."
Actually, he didn't mind becoming an apprentice, but the two women were acting like they were fighting over him, and it wouldn't be appropriate to refuse either of them.
If they wanted them all, deciding who to worship first would be a problem, so they used Mi Li as an excuse to get by, planning to take them down one by one when the opportunity arose in the future.
"Who is your master?" Yan Xuehen and Yun Zhongyue stared at him. His master must be no ordinary person to be able to teach such a powerful disciple. They might even know each other.
“I promised her I wouldn’t reveal her identity,” Zu An said with difficulty.
The two women understood; many eccentric people and recluses had such quirks.
However, they became increasingly curious about this master.
Zuan changed the subject, saying, "Let's deal with the spatial rift here first. If some otherworldly creatures get in, that would be troublesome."
“Okay.” Yan Xuehen and Yun Jianyue had no objections.
However, as soon as Yu Yanluo took a step, her legs went weak and she almost fell.
Yan Xuehen and Yun Jianyue noticed this scene, and their expressions became extremely strange.
His gaze toward Zu'an was filled with the word "beast".
Zu An was also a little embarrassed and reached out to help Yu Yanluo, but she was too embarrassed to do so and hurriedly pushed his hand away, her cheeks flushed: "I'm fine."
The group then ventured deeper into the mine.
With two grandmasters, Yan Xuehen and Yun Jianyue, their spiritual senses were extremely sharp, making it much easier for them to find the spatial rift.
They quickly arrived near the site of their previous fierce battle with the Death Worm. Seeing the corpses scattered on the ground, Zuan said, "Wait a minute."
After saying that, he ran to the mother insect's side.
Yun Jianyue nodded and said, "That's right, this thing should have a lot of treasures on it. Its scales are even harder than dragon scales, its teeth are top-quality materials for forging weapons, and even its poison glands are useful... It's just that this guy's body is very tough, so it probably won't be so easy to get rid of it..."
As she spoke, her eyes widened, because she noticed that the mother insect's corpse had simply vanished!
"Huh?" Yan Xuehen was also extremely surprised. "This is your storage artifact?"
"I guess so." Zuan thought about how he had killed many Wolf Kings before, but in the end he was still missing the Wolf King's Fang. He didn't want to make a similar mistake again.
"How can it be so big?" Yan Xuehen was shocked.
Yun Jianyue found it unbelievable. Given their cultivation levels and status, their storage artifacts were extraordinary, but it was impossible for them to contain such a huge mother worm.
Yu Yanluo, standing to the side, blushed; she had just been just as shocked.
"Maybe I was just lucky..." Zuan was about to explain when suddenly a series of thunderous sounds came from afar.
How could there be thunder coming from underground?
Yan Xuehen's expression changed drastically: "Oh no, that spatial rift!"
The group was shocked and rushed over to the sound.
Soon a clearing appeared before them, with a dark crack running diagonally across the sky.
Narrow on both sides and wider in the middle, it resembles a dark eye tilted in mid-air.
The crack resembled a wormhole from a science fiction movie, except that the surrounding area was filled with lightning and thunder, indicating that the space was extremely unstable.
Deeper inside, one could see terrifying phantoms, as if they were trying to break free from the shackles of the lightning and burst out of the crack.
"As expected, without the suppression of the mother insect, other creatures also want to get a share of the pie." Yun Jianyue's expression was grave.
Zaun had already summoned the Fire Phoenix, and a flaming blade tens of meters long slashed directly into the dark crevice.
However, the originally enormous flame blade seemed to become extremely small as it approached the gap, and instantly disappeared into the space within the gap.
“It’s no use. This involves spatial folding, and your attack won’t hit it.” Yan Xuehen shook her head.
"What should we do then?" Zu An's heart sank.
"If only Senior Brother were here," Yu Yanluo said. "He is extremely skilled in runes and should be able to neutralize this spatial power."
Zu An was taken aback, then realized that she was referring to Xie Daoyun's master, the chief disciple of the Imperial Academy.
“Yan Xiangu is indeed a genius. I’ve heard that his skill in runes has surpassed his master,” Yun Jianyue naturally knew these top figures in the world. “But there’s no need to worry. Although he’s not here, this woman has a way.”
After saying that, he pointed to Yan Xuehen: "Bai Yujing's expertise in runes is on par with Yan Xiangu."
