Chapter 80 Return to the Special Case Team
Fu Ruxuan nodded and followed Feng Tianning out of the secret room carefully.
The fire in the secret passage was still burning, but they quickly dodged it when it was only a few centimeters away from them.
Fu Ruxuan looked at Feng Tianning thoughtfully. The karma fire was hers, so it naturally would not hurt her, but Feng Tianning was able to pass through it safely.
Could it be that she also had some magical weapon on her? The flames beneath her feet moved away from her at an extremely fast speed, as if they had encountered something terrifying.
"Tianning, they won't hurt you, right?" Fu Ruxuan asked tentatively.
Feng Tianning didn't even turn his head, and pulled her forward:
"Won't."
Qilin is her guardian, so the karmic fire naturally cannot hurt her.
Fu Ruxuan didn't say anything. Since Feng Tianning could accurately tell the origin of the Nine Stars Chain, he must know how to deal with the karma fire.
Soon, some light appeared in front of them. Feng Tianning and Fu Ruxuan walked out of the secret door together and returned to the room they were originally in.
The secret door behind him slowly closed and disappeared into the wall, as if it had never appeared.
"Tianning, there are no evil spirits in this room anymore. Let's go."
Feng Tianning nodded and walked to the door. As if he remembered something, he raised his hand and blasted out. The bamboo chair in the middle of the room instantly turned into fragments.
"Axuan, don't tell anyone what we saw here."
Seeing Feng Tianning's serious expression, Fu Ruxuan also knew that if others knew that they had an "adventure" in the strange domain, those with bad intentions would probably regard them as thorns in their eyes.
She patted her chest and assured:
"Don't worry, I will keep it in my stomach."
In fact, Feng Tianning was not afraid that others would know about their opportunities, but it was really strange that Pangu's Axe of Creation appeared here, so it was better to keep it secret until the investigation was complete.
As soon as Feng Tianning opened the door, he saw a crowd of more than a dozen people gathered outside. They were all wearing the uniforms of the special case team and their cultivation levels were quite high.
Seeing them come out, Director Cai, who was in the lead, hurried forward, his eyes full of distress:
“You have suffered.”
Feng Tianning looked at Director Cai in confusion, not understanding what he meant.
Although their experiences were somewhat thrilling, they couldn't be considered suffering, right?
Fu Ruxuan coughed lightly and motioned her to look down. Only then did Feng Tianning realize that they were in a terrible state.
Their clothes were tattered, and they looked like two beggars. Their bodies were covered in blood from poisonous insects, and they exuded a foul stench from head to toe.
They were busy escaping for their lives, so naturally they didn't care about their appearance.
Feng Tianning was a little embarrassed, and smiled at Director Cai:
"Why are you all here?"
"Didn't they say that outsiders are not allowed to interfere during the assessment process?"
Director Cai looked at them with even more pity, and sighed heavily, saying:
"It's been almost a month since the newcomer assessment."
"Tian Ning, you have been missing in the Ghost Domain for a whole month. We have sent a large number of agents these days, and we have almost turned the entire Fengmen Village upside down, but we still can't find any trace of you."
"Where on earth have you been?"
Now it wasn't just Fu Ruxuan, Feng Tianning was also upset.
They were in the secret passage for a maximum of three hours in total, so how come thirty days seemed to have passed in the outside world?
"We were dragged into another strange area." Feng Tianning said with a frown.
The speed of time in the strange domain should be the same as that in the outside world.
Only a sacred artifact like the Shanhe Sheji Tu would have the saying that one day in heaven is equal to one year on earth.
Could it be that they didn't enter the strange domain within the strange domain, but went into the artifact?
As if she had sensed Feng Tianning's thoughts, the miniature axe in her hand moved a few times.
"Okay, just come back safely."
Director Cai felt a little regretful that he did not carefully evaluate the strange area of Fengmen Village.
He thought there were just a few more evil spirits here, but he didn't expect it to be a double haunted domain. This was a major work mistake.
Fortunately, they were fine. If Feng Tianning and Fu Ruxuan had not come back alive, Director Cai would probably feel guilty for the rest of his life.
"Go back."
Feng Tianning and Fu Ruxuan followed Director Cai obediently. The atmosphere in the car was very depressing, and Director Cai's expression never brightened.
It wasn't until he saw Captain Liu at the door of the special case team that his expression eased a little.
"Captain Liu." Feng Tianning greeted him with a smile.
Seeing her covered in blood, Captain Liu's heart instantly jumped to his throat. He rushed forward and grabbed Feng Tianning's arm:
"Tianning, are you hurt?"
Feng Tianning nodded and shook her head. If the poisonous insect that had drilled into her body counted, then she did suffer some minor injuries.
"It's okay, it's all right now."
Captain Liu already treated Feng Tianning as his junior. Looking at her trying so hard to hold on, he felt as if a thorn had pierced his heart.
This silly girl endured it so much because she was afraid that he would worry. She is so sensible that it makes people feel distressed.
"Captain Liu, have our new recruits passed the assessment?"
Captain Liu's emotions, which had just been brewing, were instantly interrupted by Feng Tianning's words. He looked at Feng Tianning with some confusion.
What newcomer assessment? Isn’t she already an official agent of the special case team?
Feng Tianning shook the watch on his wrist with some confusion.
Captain Liu then remembered that the newcomers needed to kill three evil spirits and survive in order to pass the test.
After Captain Liu learned that she disappeared in the strange domain, he only wanted Feng Tianning to come back alive, and no one cared whether she could pass the assessment.
"Tianning, how many evil spirits have you killed?"
Director Cai walked up to them from behind and motioned Feng Tianning to take off his watch.
After seeing the numbers above, Director Cai instantly lost his composure.
13 evil spirits, how is this possible!
The best performer among this group of new agents was He Ying, but he only killed 6 evil spirits.
Thinking that Feng Tianning and the others had disappeared for nearly a month, Director Cai also understood.
When they arrived at another strange domain, they naturally had to do everything they could to kill the master of the strange domain before they could leave.
He also took Fu Ruxuan's watch, and the numbers on it made him dumbfounded.
There is a big 9999 in the center of the watch.
If Feng Tianning's 13 was still excusable, then her 9999 was simply impossible.
How many evil spirits are there in Fengmen Village? Even if you add them all up, there's no way there are this many.
Director Cai looked at Fu Ruxuan with a serious expression:
"Xiao Fu, how come you killed so many?"
Fu Ruxuan was also a little confused. There were only 6 watches before she entered the secret door, and her watch stopped working after she entered. How could it be 9999?
Noticing Fu Ruxuan's pleading gaze, Feng Tianning coughed lightly:
"We encountered a lot of Gu worms in another strange domain. These should be the count of Gu worms."
There were countless poisonous insects in the secret passage, and in the end they were all burned by Fu Ruxuan. This number was reasonable.
