Lan Zhi was walking in Chihu City. There were basically no people on the streets. Occasionally, there were a few souls with numb expressions walking on the road. They seemed to have accepted their fate and no longer looked for places to hide. Instead, they wandered aimlessly on the streets. When passing by Lan Zhi, they lazily raised their eyelids, glanced over here, quickly retracted their gaze, and continued wandering on the roadside.
"Go this way." Ji Chengcheng was responsible for guiding the direction. It knew where its owner was.
Lan Zhi walked through rows of houses and saw Ji Zifeng and his group at the corner of the city wall.
"What are you doing?" Lan Zhi asked.
Ji Zifeng made a gesture of wiping his sweat, but in fact, there was no sweat at all. He explained: "We are digging a tunnel with a shovel, so maybe we can escape."
"Yes." Na Ran Tianguo dug the hardest. He took the time to say hello to Lan Zhi and continued digging underground.
His sister Na Ranfei looked up at Lan Zhi with lifeless eyes, and without saying a word, she waved the shovel in her hand again, as if she had lost her mind and become an emotionless puppet digging a tunnel.
"Hello, Mr. Zhu." Xihong looked up and smiled at Lanzhi while digging the soil.
"Hello, Mr. Zhu, do you want to come with us?" Ji Lanfeng invited Lan Zhi.
Lan Zhi was stunned. She held the little fox in front of her and asked, "Can I take them away without telling them?"
"No..." Ji Chengcheng rubbed his little paws, smiled innocently twice, and said, "I want to tell you after we meet, so that I can give my master a surprise."
"What?" Ji Zifeng and others had been digging the tunnel for a long time, repeating the same action. Their thinking and consciousness became a little dull, and their reactions became much slower.
Even Na Ran Tian Guo was a little distracted. He said, "It's not easy to escape. There are also restrictions and rules underground. We dug several corners and finally chose this one because it is the weakest place in the entire Chihu City."
After saying that, he came to his senses and said, "Wait, what did you say? Can you take us out?"
Now, everyone stopped digging. These shovels were all transformed by Na Ran Tian Guo using his soul power. They all looked the same. It was really difficult for him to transform seven shovels in one breath. It showed how strong his soul power was. As for the soul weapon shovel he had contracted before, it had already broken into two pieces. It was not as reliable as his soul power.
Lan Zhi said, "Stop digging, I'll take you away."
Naranfei let go of the shovel, and there was a loud bang as the shovel hit the ground. She burst into tears, "We fell in here just to find you. It's been daylight for a long time now. I don't know if my body will be buried alive or killed by the cloaked monsters. I'm really worried to death..."
"Don't cry." Na Ran Tianguo couldn't stand her sister's crying. Na Ran Fei cried dryly but had no tears. After howling twice, she returned to her dazed look. She said, "Take me away quickly. I'm so sleepy and tired... I don't want to explore the secret realm anymore..."
Na Ran Tian Guo collected all the soul power shovels, and Lan Zhi used the token to lead them all into the underground.
Unexpectedly, Tiansheng Chihu was standing not far away.
His face was expressionless, and his pupils had a thick texture, giving people a cold feeling, like pale moonlight falling on tiny pieces of floating ice, which looked very strange.
"Who are you?" Ji Zifeng asked.
"Tsk, Absolute Purity and Pure-Tailed Sky Fox, what a disgusting combination..." Tiansheng Chihu muttered. He narrowed his eyes, looked at Lan Zhi, and asked, "Where are you taking them?"
Lan Zhi said truthfully: "Send him back to town."
"No need, just send them to reincarnate." Tiansheng Chihu raised the corners of his lips slightly. When he was not smiling, he was steady and majestic, with an aura that kept strangers away. But when he smiled, his dark pupils showed a hint of smile. His eyes were curved, but his gaze was as indifferent as water, like a high and mighty god, looking down coldly on the joys and sorrows of the world.
Lan Zhi: “…”
Na Ranfei said in a dull tone: "What do you mean by reincarnation? What the hell are you talking about..."
"Who is this person?"
"Zhu Tianmiao, do you know him?"
"What does reincarnation mean? Is this the reincarnation I understand? But I'm not dead yet..."
Lan Zhi didn't answer the questions. She just whispered "yes" to Tiansheng Chihu, then took out a map and asked, "Which direction is the Samsara Path?"
No matter what she thought in her heart, at least on the surface she could not resist Tiansheng Chihu. She was bound by the Holy Blood and had to obey the other party's orders. However, if Tiansheng Chihu left, Lan Zhi planned to expel the Holy Blood and get Ji Zifeng and his party out. She did not intend to really obey Tiansheng Chihu's orders.
"Zhu Tianmiao, are you in cahoots with him?!" Ji Zifeng asked with his eyes wide open in disbelief.
Lan Zhi turned her head, looked at him calmly, and said "hmm" softly.
Na Ran Tianguo thought to himself that it was bad and was ready to escape with the people around him, but when he turned around, he found that his sister Na Ran Fei was still absent-minded. He was immediately furious. He needed Na Ran Fei's blanket to escape, but she failed at the critical moment?
When they were above Chihu City before, Horcruxes were banned in the city. Now they were banned underground. Na Ran Tian Guo quietly activated the jade pendant on his waist, wanting to try whether the Horcrux could be used, and then found out... the Horcrux didn't respond.
It seems there is no escape.
A hint of helplessness flashed across Naran Tianguo's eyes. He hated the feeling of leaving his safety in the hands of others, but Tiansheng Chihu exuded a powerful soul aura, like a towering mountain, unshakable. Naran Tianguo had learned a forbidden technique that allowed him to exchange his own vitality for forbidden power in a short period of time. Perhaps he could take advantage of the forbidden power to send Ji Zifeng and his group out of Chihu City, let them return to their bodies, and then use the forbidden power to forcibly break the blockade of the secret realm and send them back to Qingyue Kingdom safely...
But this was just the escape procedure formulated by Na Ran Tian Guo. He was not sure whether he could escape from Tian Sheng Chi Hu's men after performing the forbidden technique.
Anyway, give it a try...
In just a second, many thoughts flashed through Naran Tianguo's mind. Then, he heard Tiansheng Chihu say, "I was joking. Since the Holy Envoy knows these people, let them die last. Just consider it a favor to the Holy Envoy."
Lan Zhi: ...?
She didn't even know she could have such a big face.
But I still pretended to be surprised, grateful and honored, and said thank you.
"You're welcome." Tiansheng Chihu had a smile on his lips, and seemed to be in a good mood. He just wanted to test Lan Zhi's loyalty, and at the same time to alienate the relationship between Lan Zhi and these people, so that Lan Zhi could only rely on him to survive.
Tiansheng Chihu said again: "Remember what I told you, quickly go and investigate the unusual villages and towns."
"yes."
As soon as Lan Zhi responded, she saw Tiansheng Chihu's body disappear from the spot. He must have left.
