"Ahem... I'm still alive?"
The woman on the ground opened her eyes first, looking confused.
"Senior Sister, you scared me to death!"
"Xiaodie? I'm really not dead?" The senior sister looked at the junior sister who threw herself on her and gradually regained consciousness.
"You should wash up and change your clothes first." Lan Shuang reminded.
Xiaodie immediately let go of her senior sister, "Yes, yes, change clothes first."
"Male disciples, please step aside." Lan Shuang glanced at the people around her, and everyone, regardless of gender, turned their backs.
Xiaodie took out a new set of clothes and handed it to her senior sister. She then used her spiritual power to condense water and helped her wash up.
The senior brother next to him had his eyes closed the whole time, and only opened them after everyone had finished cleaning up, "Ahem."
Xiaodie and her senior sister looked over. He propped himself up and sat up and said, "Turn your backs. I'll change my clothes."
After everything was cleaned up, everyone sat in a circle on the ground and talked about what had just happened.
"Senior Brother Deng and I were leading the team. We spotted a fire ahead and decided to investigate to see if there were other sect disciples. Unexpectedly, we found a dry, empty field. As soon as we approached, fire suddenly erupted from the cracks. Blazes erupted, and before we could react, we were unconscious."
The senior sister is called Song Qiao and the senior brother is called Deng Lai.
Lan Shuang listened thoughtfully, "So there was nothing unusual there before?"
"Yes, if there is anything unusual we won't get close easily." Song Qiao said with lingering fear.
Lan Shuang and Jiang Lusheng exchanged a glance, and Jiang Lusheng whispered, "The problem might be underground."
"Underground? Should we go down and take a look?" Deng Lai said with a complicated expression, "There might be strange fire seeds underground. If we go down, we'll probably be burned to death."
"We came from other—"
Before Jiang Lusheng could finish his words, another roar came from underground. This time the entire ground shook, and faint screams of people could be heard.
Everyone stood up.
"Something's wrong, something's happening underground." Jiang Lusheng flew into the air and saw that the flames that were burning fiercely just now suddenly retreated into the ground.
"What's going on? Can we go back?" Wei Yu was surprised.
Lan Shuang's expression was solemn. "There must be something fishy going on when things aren't normal. Everyone, be careful!"
"boom!"
The earth shook, the wind and clouds changed color, the ground of the entire valley shattered in an instant, and a sea of fire surged directly towards them.
"ah!"
"What's going on? Why is this fire pulling me down?"
"Help!"
The incident happened in an instant, and before everyone could react, they were sucked into the abyss. Jiang Lusheng could have escaped, but he grabbed Lan Shuang and was taken down.
When falling, he hugged Lan Shuang tightly and used his spiritual power to protect the two of them so that they were not burned by the flying flames. He distracted himself and glanced at Wei Yu, then sent out a stream of spiritual power to wrap him up.
Wei Yu looked at him gratefully, but before he could say anything, everyone was swallowed by the darkness and disappeared into the crack in the ground.
…
“Hiss—it hurts—”
Lan Shuang regained consciousness and felt as if all the bones in her body were crushed by something heavy.
"Xiao Baba, am I still alive? Have I gone to hell? Why is it so painful? Shit!"
She cursed in pain, but 888 immediately blocked out some of the pain for her. "Host, you fell into a place that looked like a crypt. You're in pain because you were captured by the demons after you fell. The demons injected some kind of spell into your body that blocks the flow of spiritual energy."
"Demons? How could there be demons here?" Lan Shuang opened her eyes and saw a faint light in front of her eyes and a strong smell of blood in her nose.
