Chapter 114 Guarding the Hunyuan Pearl
But I listened to the advice and ate my fill.
Gao Huohuo did not insist on staying and finding out what was going on.
I'm afraid that the matter of Luoxia City will not be clear to her in a short time.
As Su Ruoyun went out, I was thinking about where to stay for the night when I heard Su Ruoyun exclaim.
"Oh no! Someone has gone to the place where the treasure is hidden in the dark river. We need to go back now."
Hearing Su Ruoyun say this, Gao Huohuo hurriedly flew back to the Dark River with her on his sword.
After all, Su Ruoyun is determined to get the treasure of Dark River.
The two hurried back to the underground river and saw a group of people gathered at the entrance. It was obvious that something big had happened inside the underground river.
In order to avoid being recognized, Gao Huohuo and Su Ruoyun had to dress up as each other and became two handsome young men.
Then he pretended to have just arrived and asked others about the specific situation of the underground river.
Su Ruoyun patted a monk's shoulder and asked:
"My fellow Daoist, my junior fellow apprentice and I are late. What happened here?"
The person who was patted on the shoulder turned around and saw a handsome Jindan cultivator asking him questions.
He quickly turned around and said, "What are you two doing? Those who came earlier have gone in to help the Saint Lady catch the evil cultivators.
We are late and can only wait at this entrance. I hope the Saint can see me!"
Hearing this man's words, Gao Huohuo asked in surprise:
"The evil cultivator has been found? The Saint is here too?"
"Of course, according to the Saint, the evil cultivator is hiding in this dark river. The talented young man from Qingyun Sect is here to help her capture the evil cultivator.
The two of them have already gone in, and they really look like a perfect match!"
As soon as the monk finished speaking, Gao Huohuo looked at Su Ruoyun anxiously as if it was a conditioned reflex.
His eyes were fixed on her face, worried that she would become jealous or even sad because of what he said.
Who knew that Su Ruoyun seemed to have the same thoughts as her. At the same time, she was staring at her intently, her eyes also full of concern and inquiry.
Gao Huohuo secretly wondered in his heart: "Why is Su Ruoyun looking at me? I have no interest in Zhong Hanshang at all."
She frowned slightly and looked around. Seeing so many pairs of eyes staring at her eagerly, she knew in her heart that it was simply a fantasy to try to force her way in from there.
While thinking about it, Gao Huohuo suddenly had an idea and quietly sent a message to Su Ruoyun:
"Friend Su, how about I try to lure the people here away? You quickly put on the invisibility talisman and go in first. I'll meet you later."
Su Ruoyun received the message, waved her hand gently, and without saying anything, pulled Gao Huohuo aside and said in a low voice:
"I know there's another entrance, but it's quite dangerous. Once you enter, you're right above the underground river. If you're not careful, you might fall into the water."
Gao Huohuo heard this, and a hint of determination flashed in his eyes. He responded without hesitation:
"Then let's go quickly. At worst, I can let Ziying hang me up and swing me over."
After saying that, the two of them immediately ran towards another path under the guidance of Su Ruoyun.
This road is really difficult to walk on, with rugged rocks and bumpy terrain. If Gao Huohuo had not relied on his own agility, he would have almost fallen down several times.
Along the way, they climbed and climbed through the winding caves, turning left and right, and after a long time, they finally reached their destination.
"Huo Huo, I'll go down first. Be careful when you come down later!"
After giving Gao Huohuo instructions, Su Ruoyun jumped down from the cave entrance, and then there was a sound of landing.
Gao Huohuo also jumped down from the cave entrance, and as soon as he landed, he saw an underground river.
The purple shadow was thrown to the shore, hooked onto a rock, and landed safely.
"Friend Su, if it's inconvenient, I'll just wait for you here."
What Su Ruoyun liked most was Gao Huohuo's sense of propriety at this moment.
But there was no need to hide it from her anymore. Su Ruoyun took Gao Huohuo's hand and led her to the depths of the dark river.
The two of them moved very quickly and soon arrived at the location of the treasure.
The treasure was still there, nothing wrong, but it looked a little undercooked.
"What's going on? Fellow Daoist Su, should we take the treasure in advance or continue to wait?"
Su Ruoyun thought about it and decided to continue waiting. Otherwise, if she took off the Hunyuan Pearl now, its power would not be able to play its due value.
“Huohuo, I decided to stay here and wait for the power of the Hunyuan Pearl to be fully absorbed before taking it away.
You don't have to stay here with me, just come and find me at the beginning of next month."
Hearing Su Ruoyun's words, Gao Huohuo frowned and said in a pretended angry tone:
"Friend Su, you're being too formal. I agreed to accompany you to retrieve the treasure, so how can I leave alone?
And I don't have anything to do, so I'll stay here with you.
If someone comes in without any eyes, I can still help you."
Su Ruoyun knew that Gao Huohuo was sincere, so she didn't refuse.
The two of them sat down on the spot. Gao Huohuo was about to ask Su Ruoyun about Luoxia City when he sensed someone coming.
At the same time, Su Ruoyun also discovered it. The two of them stood up quietly and heard a female voice.
"Han Shang, why are you walking so fast? Wait for me, what if that evil cultivator shows up again?"
Zhong Hanshang is here too? Aren't they looking for the evil cultivator? Why are they here?
Gao Huohuo and Su Ruoyun looked at each other and understood each other's thoughts.
That is, we must never let them come here.
After a brief thought, Gao Huohuo suggested that she go out to lead the two away, while Su Ruoyun would guard the Hunyuan Pearl.
She took out a cloth to cover her face, and asked Xiao Lingzi to put a layer of illusion on her face, and then Gao Huohuo went out.
She deliberately made some noise not far from Zhong Hanshang and the others, and soon felt two auras coming towards her.
Gao Huohuo put on the magic talisman and started rushing around in the cave.
She left her scent behind as she ran, waiting for the two people behind to catch up with her.
Zhong Hanshang rushed over when he heard the first sound.
But the more he chased, the more Zhong Hanshang felt that this aura was somewhat familiar.
It was not until he discovered the remaining breath again that Zhong Hanshang was certain that this person was Gao Huohuo, and that he had deliberately led them away.
Is she really in cahoots with the evil cultivators? Is she now covering for them?
Thinking of this, Zhong Hanshang decided not to chase him anymore and prepared to go back to find out what was going on.
Gao Huohuo had been paying attention to the movements of the two people behind him. Seeing that Zhong Hanshang was about to go back, Gao Huohuo could only rush out and grab him in a hurry.
When Chen Wanzhen was about to see the two of them, he put invisibility talismans on them.
"Strange, where are the people? How can they run so fast? Why can't even Han Shang be seen?"
Chen Wanzhen thought she was too slow to catch up, so she continued to chase.
After she walked away, Gao Huohuo showed up.
Seeing that she was still holding Zhong Hanshang, he quickly let go.
"Friend Zhong, what a coincidence!"
"It's quite a coincidence. Brother Gao, don't you want to explain something?"
