After absorbing the vitality in the hall, the world was still dark, but it was time to leave. The Si camp outside might be preparing a trap. Thinking of this, Xia Xiao had a bad premonition.

Looking at Shu Shuang beside him, Xia Xiao, who is not left-handed, chose to draw the machete with his left hand and hold her left hand with his right hand.

They looked at each other and saw the smile in each other's eyes. They looked up at the top of the hall together, as if they could see the talisman array on it. The predecessor was gone, but they, who had the wild pattern, controlled the talisman array like a master and left the world in the coffin.

In an instant, the spacious and dim space disappeared, but Xia Xiao and Shu Shuang's eyes were dark, and they couldn't see their fingers when they stretched out their hands. The space around them was very small, filled with the smell of earth, and a little damp, like an earthworm's nest.

Holding Shu Shuang tightly in his arms, Xia Xiao used the machete in his hand to measure the rocks around him. After sensing that there was no danger, he activated his vital energy, illuminated the surroundings with green fluorescence, and looked around this narrow place.

The spacious tomb was gone, and there was only gravel and dirt everywhere. Only a corner of the coffin was exposed on the ground, and it was buried again. Xia Xiao and Shu Shuang had only a place to stand, and they could only stand, and they couldn't even stretch their arms. Under the light, Xia Xiao looked at the direction above his head. There was a big hole that could be passed through. At this time, something stretched out from it.

Xia Xiao was cautious and could respond at any time. He felt the vitality, which was a little strange, and seemed to have been seen somewhere before, but it should not have a big impact, as Xia Xiao always had a photographic memory.

A pretty and cold face appeared in the dark cave. Xia Xiao and Shu Shuang recognized her at a glance under the green fluorescent light.

"Si Qingling?"

Holding the entrance of the cave, Si Qingling bent down and stretched out her hand.

"We are not enemies, come up."

Xia Xiao lifted Shu Shuang up, and after she climbed up, he used his machete to climb up in this narrow place where it was difficult to exert force.

He glanced at the coffin beneath him, and it suddenly turned into a beam of light and disappeared.

"It should have been taken away by the instructor."

When Xia Xiao gave a rough judgment, Si Qingling turned around.

"What?"

"It's okay. I was talking about the coffin before."

Following Si Qingling, Xia Xiao and Shu Shuang came to a unique place. Starting from the cave entrance, there were soft vines all around, which wrapped into a circular hut with a passage, allowing Si Qingling to stay here comfortably for two days.

There was only one backpack in the round hut, but now there are two more.

“What’s going on here?”

"The Si camp ambushed Su Huan and the others and took them away. When I came out of the coffin, the tomb collapsed. I saw them fleeing with their people, so I hid behind the coffin and stayed."

For Si Qingling, the collapse of the tomb was a good opportunity. She could leave at any time, but it was difficult for them to come in, and they didn't know her situation. With over 10,000 points, she could wait out the last period of time and enter the final selection without having to help the tyrants and listen to Si Ying's orders.

"How long has it been?"

Xia Xiao’s first reaction was time. As long as they didn’t stay in the coffin for too long, Su Huan and the others would be safe.

Si Qingling didn't expect Xia Xiao to be so calm, and answered truthfully:

"Two days!"

"fine."

Xia Xiao took out two fruits from his backpack and handed them to Shu Shuang and Si Qingling one after another.

"You're not in a hurry?"

The hut was dark, but there was the fragrance of trees and the softness of vine leaves, which made Xia Xiao feel quite comfortable lying there.

"Si Ying just wants to lure me over there, so I'll go!"

"Just the two of you?"

Si Qingling was about to explain that she was not disdainful, but because of the huge difference in strength. But Xia Xiao didn't care. He and Shu Shuang did not look strong on the surface, but that was not the case.

"Two are enough. No matter how many traps they prepare, they will be useless!"

"Do you know that Siying's strength has improved?"

"have no idea!"

"So you are so confident because you have obtained the wild pattern in the coffin?"

Although it didn't work, Si Qingling at least went through the process and knew what Xia Xiao and Shu Shuang had faced. But since they were able to pass the test, it was really amazing. In front of such a person, anyone would be shaken and find a thousand reasons for themselves, as if their betrayal was justified and the other party would forgive them.

"Um!"

Xia Xiao would never use two words to express something that could be expressed in one word. If there was light here and the vision was clear enough, he would definitely skip the words and just nod.

“No wonder…”

The strongest wild beast Si Qingling had ever seen was only level 6, and she had never heard of a level 8 wild beast. Therefore, she asked curiously:

"The wild pattern of the eighth-level wild beast is very strong, right?"

Wild patterns are rare, and the chance of them existing in ruins is even lower. Xia Xiao and Shu Shuang were able to obtain it, so they really have some skills!

"I haven't used it yet, so I'm not sure yet, but I'll know in two days!"

He raised his right arm. Although he couldn't see it clearly in the dark, he could feel the dragon shadow on it. The scale of the battle with Si Ying would be larger this time. It was different from the last time he entered Wanling Valley. This time he was more passive. If he wanted to defeat him and rescue Su Huan and others, he had to be more fully prepared.

With Xia Xiao and Shu Shuang's current strength, if they want to activate the eighth-level wild pattern and release strong enough power, they must gather their vitality in advance. Therefore, Xia Xiao sat cross-legged and prepared to make a seal.

"Let's go together. Su Huan and I are friends."

“No!”

Xia Xiao refused, but Si Qingling's pretty and cold face showed a bit of arrogance.

"Why don't you listen to my plan before making a decision?"

"explain!"

Xia Xiao was not arrogant, he just felt it was unnecessary. But Si Qingling was not a stupid person, she analyzed:

"Although Zhu Tiankang and the other two are not that strong except for Si Ying, you are still in the stage of condensing your seeds. It is difficult to win against them alone, let alone when the four of them gather together. From what I know about them, the suspicious Si Ying will definitely use extremely vicious means, so use me as a prisoner and let them throw the token aside first to ensure the safety of Su Huan and others."

Although Si Qingling wanted to stay here, she had to take action now. One more person means more strength!

“No!”

"Are you sure?"

Si Qingling doubted her ears. Was Xia Xiao serious?

"Sure!"

Xia Xiao was still determined. He had a broadsword in one hand and a wild pattern in the other, and Shu Shuang was by his side. It would be no problem. Si Ying had time to set the trap, so he just had to prepare in advance.

"Can……"

"Wake us up in two days!"

After saying that, Xia Xiao formed seals with his hands, and Shu Shuang did the same.

The energy of heaven and earth gathered and accumulated in the arm, filling up the lines of the wild pattern bit by bit, like filling an empty bottle with water. Si Qingling, who was sitting opposite, saw it and looked at the faces of the two people in the faint white light. They were steady and resolute, how could they look like fifteen years old? And the dragon shadow pattern faintly revealed on the arm was extremely mysterious.

He came from afar and was the first church member to do so. He was truly extraordinary!

Two days passed quickly, and Si Qingling, who had a strong sense of time, woke up Xia Xiao and Shu Shuang.

It was dark and quiet all around. Xia Xiao asked:

"Is it morning or evening?"

"About noon."

“Just right!”

Although two days had passed, Xia Xiao's thoughts were still stuck on two days ago. After saying that, he stood up and stretched his waist.

"I'm sorry to bother you!"

Si Qingling understood what Xia Xiao meant and immediately expressed her opinion.

"As a friend, this is what I should do. Um...I apologize for any offense I may have caused you before!"

Si Qingling didn't deliberately want to befriend Xia Xiaoshushuang, but she couldn't make an enemy either. Her tone was a little bad two days ago, so she had to apologize.

"It doesn't matter. I've heard about your situation from Su Huan. Just stay here with peace of mind. Our names will be on the final selection list!"

Si Qingling was a little uncomfortable with someone younger than her being so mature. But under a green light, she began to make hand seals. She made hand seals very quickly, and in the blink of an eye, she had made more than a hundred hand seals.

With his palms facing the top of his head, a talisman array was rolling. Suddenly, countless vines emerged, opening a straight path to the outside world. Immediately, a ray of sunlight shone in.

"Let's go!"

Xia Xiao and Shu Shuang felt like they hadn't seen the sun for a long time, and they were a little excited. After they flew out of the passage, Xia Xiao and Shu Shuang lost their way, just like when they first came to Wanling Valley. They originally thought that this passage was straight up, but it tilted towards the sun. This side should be south, which was also the direction they entered the mountain tomb.

Looking around, Xia Xiao searched for images in his memory to regain his sense of direction.

"Xia Xiao."

Shu Shuang picked up an umbrella and handed it to him. The latter recognized it at a glance. Isn't this Su Huan's black umbrella?

Because of being exposed to wind and sun for several days, the cover of the umbrella was cracked. Xia Xiao held it in his hand, holding it very close.

"In that direction?"

Shu Shuang pointed to the south, that was where they came from. It was... the middle of Wanling Valley! It was also where the fifth-level wild beasts such as Zongtian Zhiyan were!

"Walk!"

If it were in the past, Shu Shuang would feel a little uncomfortable when she saw Xia Xiao cared so much about Su Huan, although she would not say it out loud. She was always sensible, gentle and considerate, but she was also just an innocent girl. She used to guess what Xia Xiao was thinking, but now it was different, because Xia Xiao's eyes were normal, indicating that he had no love for Su Huan.

Xia Xiao's feelings for Su Huan are not as simple as his feelings for Shu Shuang. He looks at the former like a sister. When he was most helpless, it was Su Huan who helped him. The umbrella blocked the rain and supported a heart that was about to break. But now, Si Ying has set his sights on her, and Xia Xiao will not let him go!

Looking straight ahead, Xia Xiao murmured in his heart.

"Su Huan, wait for me!"
