Chapter 136 Good stuff, I want it
Su Yu thought about it for a moment.
Is this the kind of partner Twelve wants to be with?
But when I try to put myself in that situation, it still feels a bit strange.
After exchanging a few words with the captain, Buwei calmed down and belatedly realized she was feeling a little awkward, so she changed the subject to the important matter: "Have you tried to escape these past few days?"
The team leader also became serious, and the five members of the team explained the situation in detail to Su Yu and Bu Wei.
The room was filled with demonic energy, and their spiritual energy had been completely absorbed by the strange sandstorm. They were unable to absorb and replenish their spiritual energy here. Without spiritual energy, they could not open their storage rings, nor could they leave using teleportation talismans.
There were guards outside, and even the daily meals were delivered through a hole in the door, which was immediately locked after the meal was delivered.
They have been trying to escape these past few days, but with little success. However, they have figured out the shift change times for the guards outside.
As for the food, after being examined by one of their team members who was sensitive to poisons, it was found to be safe to eat. However, eating it would cause weakness for two hours, specifically manifested as general weakness, which was also a measure to prevent them from escaping.
After the exchange, the captain sighed and said, "We can't get out for the time being. If Amon finds something is wrong, he will probably report it. Our exploration team is directly under the Ghost Market, so there should be some powerful figures above us who will come to protect us."
"At least there's no immediate danger to his life, so don't worry too much."
Clearly, the captain was trying to calm his teammates down.
After exchanging information, Su Yu sat quietly by the door. The team members assumed that this newcomer named Feng Jiu was trying to escape out of desperation and held onto a sliver of hope, so they didn't bother him.
Su Yu was certainly not thinking about how to escape; why would she need to think about that?
He had just asked the system, and it turned out that his Twelve had not yet become the Demon Lord; they were still in the stage of fighting against each other.
Therefore, this spy organization that intends to help the demon realm infiltrate the spirit realm is most likely a scheme set up by the current Demon Lord, Wei Lan.
Su Yu thought calmly, "That's definitely going to be ruined. I can't leave this mess to him after Twelve takes over. If I don't handle it well, I'll probably have to take the blame and become the real villain."
Then he asked Xiaoqi:
Xiao Qi glanced at the protagonist's log inside the system:
Su Yu hummed in agreement, looking at the doorway before her:
He wants to go out and play support.
Although the people here take various measures to prevent people from escaping and thus prevent them from using spiritual energy, coincidentally, he is a demon.
Having spent so much time in the spirit world, he felt unusually comfortable in this room filled with demonic energy.
Su Yu waited for Su Yao to make her move, then he directly absorbed the demonic energy in the room, and dug out the demonic stones that provided the demonic energy. He then kicked the door open and had a coincidental encounter with A Yao.
At this very moment, Su Yao was nestled on the supporting beam below, concealing her presence with a talisman, her expression cold and stern as she watched the evil cultivators rushing past below.
Perhaps because she had tasted many strange herbs while experimenting with alchemy on her own, she had a stronger resistance to medicine than the average person. So when she was swept away by the sandstorm and found that her companions were gradually falling into a deep sleep, she realized that something was definitely wrong.
To avoid alerting the enemy, she pretended to be asleep, but still secretly opened one eye to peek at her surroundings.
The entire furnace was carried away. After a while, when they had probably arrived at their destination, someone grabbed her ankle and tried to drag her into the place where people were being held.
Su Yao couldn't take it anymore and immediately jumped up and overturned the alchemy furnace.
With a flick of his foot, he pinned the man's hand under his foot.
Before the henchman carrying the man could even utter a scream, a sharp gust of wind swept towards his neck.
With a "bang".
His body slid down, and he fell asleep peacefully.
The Southern Crossing disciples, who had been listless and dejected in their cells, suddenly snapped to attention. Several of them rushed to the prison door, grabbed the two iron bars, and cried out excitedly with tears welling up in their eyes, "Boss! Chief! Waaah, you're really alright! I knew you were the strongest, Boss!!"
Su Yao nodded casually to them, and then took down a few more arrogant evil cultivators who thought she hadn't fully recovered.
The other henchmen were startled by the sudden incident. One of them, who looked like the leader, rolled his eyes and quickly shouted, "Quick, someone come here! There's a woman still awake!"
He himself slowly retreated into the corner.
He was just a lowly henchman in charge of moving people; how could he possibly beat the pride of Nandu Academy?
Besides, he joined this evil cultivation group just to make a living; he didn't really want to risk his life.
There's a saying, "Better to die for your fellow Daoist than for your own," and that's exactly the point.
His shout immediately brought a flurry of hurried voices from the otherwise quiet prison cell.
Su Yao quickly looked around, climbed onto the roof beam without hesitation, and waved to her classmates, saying, "Wait for me."
The disciples from the southward journey suddenly became bright-eyed, their dejected mood vanishing. It was clear that Su Yao, the chief disciple, had gained even more admirers, and those who were already fans were now even more enamored.
There were also a few unfamiliar faces, who looked like disciples from other academies, who were also incredibly excited.
Su Yao needed to find the key. With so many disciples arrested, the mentors couldn't possibly remain indifferent; otherwise, the worst-case scenario would be that the mentors themselves would also be captured.
Their cell looked like it had roads in both the front and back, so Su Yao decided to explore the structure of this underground building first, and then look for her unfortunate mentor who might have been captured as well.
Xiao Jun and the others are still unconscious. She can't take them away by herself. She'll come back later to rescue them together.
As for those two missing Ghost Market people, either they're being held captive elsewhere, or they're involved in this matter.
Su Yao leaped and bounded through the underground structure, eventually finding herself back in a spacious cavern. Light shone from above, and below was a platform resembling an altar—the very spot where they had fallen after the sandstorm subsided.
Su Yao quickly found a hiding spot and crouched down on the roof beam again.
On the platform were several men in black robes, whose auras clearly indicated they were evil cultivators, and they were currently inspecting something.
The distance was a bit far, and these evil cultivators were also keeping their voices down. Based on their indistinct voices, Su Yao judged that the thing seemed to be the key to their manipulation of the sandstorm.
She wanted something nice too.
Su Yao quietly placed a memory stone in the spot where she had just been and affixed a concealment talisman to it.
Let Little Stone help her learn how to operate it first. She can come and get the key after she finds it and saves the person.
If you can't find the key, gather everyone first, then use a sandstorm to forcefully break down the door.
Su Yao left quietly.
Xiao Qi whispered in Su Yu's mind:
