The Lord of the Dark Domain spared the Nirvana Merchant Guild members from indiscriminate killing because of the Shadow.
But they didn't properly prepare food for them.
Gu Mingyue and Xinghe dealt with the guards watching over them near the prison, but the monsters' shift change was approaching.
Gu Mingyue was confident in dealing with the few scattered level 5 skeleton knights, thanks to her hidden identity.
But if she were to come out into the open and be chased by hundreds of skeleton knights in the heart of the Dark Domain, it would be difficult for her to escape unnoticed.
Moreover, the most terrifying thing is not these skeleton knights emitting blue flames, but the fire-elemental lord who leads them.
When Gu Mingyue was soaking in the blood pool, she used her mental abilities to probe it.
The Lord of the Dark Domain's superpower level has reached the late stage of level six.
Gu Mingyue had only just entered the late stage of level five after entering the Black Domain.
With such a huge disparity, Gu Mingyue had no intention of confronting it head-on.
If the monster tears her leather clothes, she will be burned to ashes by the eerie blue flames.
So when they heard the newly changed skeleton knights clattering as they approached the dungeon...
Gu Mingyue immediately tried to leave with Xinghe.
The flame fences throughout the entire Blue Flame Dungeon were pushed aside by Xinghe using spatial manipulation.
Zhou Yanli and his group could choose to escape or fight to the death with the Lord of the Black Domain.
Before leaving, Gu Mingyue took out a handful of crystal cores and energy-boosting items like chocolates, candies, and biscuits and gave them to Zhou Yanli.
“Those skeleton knights outside are about to break in. I’ll go around to the back of the monsters first, so you won’t be unable to defeat those skeleton monsters and drag me down with you. It would be terrible if we were all locked up in the dungeon together.”
"I'll borrow these things from your Nirvana Merchant Guild first. Quickly replenish your strength, and remember to return them to me when you leave," Gu Mingyue said to Zhou Yanli.
The people from the Nirvana Chamber of Commerce felt somewhat uneasy when they saw Gu Mingyue and her companion trying to escape alone.
Hearing Gu Mingyue say this now, I realize that she is really thoughtful, she has even thought of a contingency plan in case the attempt to overtake her fails.
The members of the Nirvana Merchant Guild took the crystal cores and immediately absorbed them. Then they unwrapped the packaging, took out the chocolates inside, and began to chew them heartily.
Chew it a couple of times and swallow it, trying to restore the energy that was almost depleted in the body as quickly as possible.
As they absorbed the nutrients, they quietly thanked Gu Mingyue.
Even the man who had just yesterday helped Gu Mingyue resolve his girlfriend's pain was no longer glaring at her. After being nudged by someone next to him with an elbow, he immediately bowed slightly in both directions to Gu Mingyue and her boyfriend.
However, the Blue Flame Dungeon in the center of the Black Domain does not only imprison members of the Nirvana Merchant Guild.
There were other survivors who were captured by the Skeleton Knight as soon as they entered the eighty-first floor.
Although Gu Mingyue had Xinghe remove the bars that were holding them back from the blue flames, she didn't give them any food or crystals to restore their energy.
Now that they see that Gu Mingyue and the other person only saved them and there are no follow-up matters, and looking at the people in the Nirvana Chamber of Commerce who are absorbing energy so enthusiastically, they are not happy.
They could have escaped by following the Nirvana Merchant Guild and dealing with the monsters together.
But some idiots just couldn't understand, and they all shouted and asked Gu Mingyue and the other two why they ran away, and whether they didn't want to take care of them anymore.
"You two aren't allowed to leave! How do we know you won't come back if you leave?" someone shouted, their face bulging.
Gu Mingyue glanced at the group with amusement. She hadn't encountered such shameless people who used moral blackmail since becoming the city lord of Mingyue Base.
Being bad isn't scary; what's scary is being stupid.
However, it's good to encounter some fools now, because Gu Mingyue only helped them out of the blue and hoped they would cause as much chaos as possible.
With a group of Nirvana Chamber of Commerce members behind Zhou Yanli, Gu Mingyue and Xinghe could easily leave. At most, they could only take Zhou Yanli with them. Gu Mingyue couldn't help with the many members behind him.
Moreover, as the president of the Nirvana Chamber of Commerce, if Zhou Yanli were forcibly taken away by her, abandoning the other members of the Chamber of Commerce, he certainly wouldn't genuinely help her solve the problem.
But if we save him a few more times and take one of him with us in the chaos, it will be much easier.
After the Lord of the Black Domain was enraged, killing others might be easy, but killing Zhou Yanli, the wet nurse, would be no easy task.
Before leaving, Gu Mingyue threw several golden scimitars, killing the loudest ones inside. Then she immediately used her mental abilities to locate the monsters and escaped the dungeon by following the map before the skeleton knights could hear the noise and arrive.
Inside the dungeon, a great battle is about to break out.
Originally, the Nirvana Merchant Guild members wanted to fight alongside others to escape the skeleton knights, but these idiots actually tried to drag Gu Mingyue into it as well.
They naturally knew that Gu Mingyue and the other person were avoiding battle to preserve their strength, not because they were desperately trying to rescue them.
And perhaps after seeing them locked up again, they will really leave.
Gu Mingyue did indeed rescue them from prison, and even left behind crystal cores to replenish their energy.
In the apocalypse, that's enough! They weren't originally members of the Nirvana Merchant Guild, so they had no obligation to do so.
So when the monster attacked, spewing blue fire, the members of the Nirvana Merchant Guild spontaneously huddled together, not helping others share the firepower.
After Zhou Yanli regained some of his energy, he immediately buffed his teammates.
The small dungeon was suddenly filled with contrasting temperatures of ice and fire. In the end, Zhou Yanli's side managed to extinguish the blue flames of the skeleton knights by a narrow margin. After the skeleton knights fell, the Nirvana Merchant Guild members all began to harvest the skulls with practiced ease.
