"What miracle? My waist is broken!" Wang Xuan sighed and lay there motionless.
"Ah?" Zhao Qinghan was surprised and quickly sat up to help him check.
"No need. I guess he was just injured by hitting a tree trunk. It's not a big deal. I can just lie down and rest." Wang Xuan didn't let her check.
"Take a rest while all the ferocious beasts have escaped. We will leave as soon as daybreak!" said Zhao Qinghan.
Wang Xuan nodded and fell asleep right there, trying his best to stay in the best condition in the secret place to deal with any accidents.
The moonlight fell, Zhao Qinghan looked at him, unable to sleep for a long time. She had many doubts, and with her shrewdness, she would naturally have various associations. The main reason was that Wang Xuan was too calm at that moment.
No matter what, the scene of Wang Xuan leaping into the air to save her at the last moment was reflected in her mind. This was a friend whom she could trust with her life.
She was grateful and moved, and then closed her beautiful eyes in the moonlight.
She hadn't gotten much sleep for two consecutive nights after the incident. Now she felt very peaceful and fell asleep quickly.
In the early morning, Wang Xuan was motionless with his entire arm being pressed down. He wanted to pull it out, but was afraid of waking up Zhao Qinghan, so he thought it would be better to let her sleep a little longer.
Finally, Zhao Qinghan's eyelids trembled and she gradually woke up. She immediately felt that she was holding an arm. She let go in a panic and tidied her clothes.
"It's okay, you don't drool much when you sleep." Wang Xuan joked to ease the awkwardness.
"You are the one drooling, I never drool!" Zhao Qinghan's face turned slightly red.
"Then why are my hands wet?" Wang Xuan stood up, then was startled to find that there seemed to be some wet marks on his right hand, no way?
"What are you looking at? That's dew!" Zhao Qinghan stood up.
The two men identified the direction and wanted to go back to find the main force and reunite with them.
Although he was only abducted by the monster for a moment last night, Wang Xuan felt that he had flown at least dozens of miles away.
"I missed the monster's lair and missed out on a magical medicine. What a pity!" Wang Xuan sighed.
Zhao Qinghan said, "Don't think about the strange things for now, let's go back quickly. I need to review this operation. The danger of the secret place is far beyond my imagination."
This was inconsistent with the information she had obtained. The secret place was now much more dangerous than before. Something must have happened.
The two of them set out on their return journey cautiously, determined their position, and crossed mountains and ridges. On the way, Wang Xuan avoided some dangerous areas with his powerful spiritual perception.
This is still the outer area of the secret place, and the appearance of extraordinary creatures like the golden raptor is unexpected.
"There's someone!" Wang Xuan stopped and saw a figure in the woods ahead, sitting cross-legged by a lake. It was a human.
The middle-aged man was covered in blood and even his protective suit was torn, but he himself seemed to be fine. At this time, Huo turned around and found Wang Xuan and Zhao Qinghan.
He waved at the two of them, motioning them to come over.
"Who are you and why are you here?" Wang Xuan asked him, not caring, and strode over.
He had a thorough understanding of this man's condition. He was a master-level genetic super body, with no injuries on his body and in very good condition, but he posed no threat to Wang Xuan.
"I am an explorer, and I have lost contact with the team. I found some spiritual herbs here, waiting for them to mature and be picked." The man, who looked to be in his thirties, smiled faintly and said, "Meeting is fate. There are five spiritual lotuses in the lake. I have three and you have two. How about that?"
There was a faint fragrance in the lake. There were five lotus flowers emitting rosy glow and rippling halos. It was obvious at first glance that they were not ordinary creatures.
The Yang Shen Lotus can nourish the body, but it is more nourishing to the mind. As the name suggests, it is very beneficial to the improvement of mental strength, but the best effect is to wait until the lotus pods are formed and eat the lotus seeds for nourishment.
The glowing lotus also had an effect, but it was definitely not as good.
It is impossible for any explorer to wait until it bears lotus pods, there is no time to wait.
Wang Xuan felt that if he ate the soul-nourishing lotus, his strength would definitely improve!
"Young man, go pick lotus flowers," said the man.
"I think there is something in this lake, and you don't even dare to go down." Wang Xuan was very mentally strong, so he naturally felt the abnormality in the lake.
So he pointed out directly that there was no need to be afraid of this man because his malicious intentions were too obvious.
This place is far away from the rising star and without the constraints of laws and regulations. After some people come here, they seem to have broken free from the shackles of morality and do whatever they want in this no-man's land.
An old expedition member once said that if you get separated from your expedition team, you must be careful when you meet other explorers in the wild. Sometimes some people have shockingly low bottom lines, and their behavior is more terrifying than that of ferocious beasts.
"Just go if I tell you to go. Why are you wasting time talking?" The man stood up, waved at Zhao Qinghan, and said, "Miss, come this way. We'll just wait here for him to pick herbs."
Although this man was smiling, one could clearly sense that he had ill intentions and he did not try to hide it. He felt that he was a genetic superbody and the two people in front of him were at his mercy.
It was obvious that he wanted to kill Wang Xuan by forcing him to enter the problematic lake to collect herbs, thus killing himself in vain.
He left Zhao Qinghan behind, with that fiery light in his eyes that would disgust any young girl. He was naked and unconcealed.
"Where can human nature be fully demonstrated? It is in this no-man's land, away from the constraints of human society and laws, where both pure goodness and ugliness can be performed. Unfortunately, you are isolated from goodness and have fully demonstrated the ugly side."
Wang Xuan said in a cold voice, showing no mercy at all. A genetic super body dared to do whatever it wanted and wanted to carry out some heinous crimes here. There was no need to be merciful when encountering such a person who crossed the bottom line.
