Shushu had already guessed that she might face an attack when she left the ruins, but she was still startled when she actually saw it.
Outside the ruins, a large group of people were densely packed together, and even though the ruins were in between, they could feel several extremely strong pressures emanating from outside.
For a moment, Shushu Luli was also in a dilemma, not knowing whether he should go out at this time, especially since He Xin was with them now.
As a trump card that could find Hua Shi and potentially uncover the whereabouts of the Immortal Decree, Shushu and the others did not want her to be exposed to the world at this time.
After all, although no one from the Nine Star Palace has come yet, who can guarantee that among these people there aren't their lackeys who won't go and tip them off?
Thinking of this, Shushu's face couldn't help but show some confusion. He scratched his head and tried hard to think of a way to get away with it.
After thinking for a while, he still couldn't come up with a solution, so he looked at Lu Li beside him. Unexpectedly, Lu Li was also shaking his head, which meant that he had no other ideas either. Shushu was feeling down.
As for the three ferocious beasts, especially Qiongqi and Taotie, they were trying to urge Shushu to charge out and fight if he didn't agree.
They were definitely the kind of people who were afraid to cause trouble, which made Shushu's head ache. She looked away, not wanting to see them anymore.
Just as Shushu was getting anxious and almost frustrated, Hexin suddenly spoke up: "I know another way out."
Instantly, everyone's eyes fell on her, staring straight at her.
He Xin, seemingly unfazed by everyone's gaze, continued, "It's just that there's some danger over there."
Millet instinctively asked, "How dangerous?"
He Xin paused, as if assessing the danger level of that exit. After a long while, probably unable to give a precise figure, she could only rephrase it as, "It's a spatial rift."
A spatial rift? Shushu frowned, pondering the question. Just as he was about to ask a few more questions, he suddenly heard a violent explosion coming from behind him, from the barrier where the peach tree had been.
Everyone was startled and looked in the direction of the sound, only to see a mushroom cloud rising rapidly.
He Xin also received the message from the peach tree in her sea of consciousness: "The barrier has been broken." Everyone's faces showed surprise.
The next moment, a bright light suddenly shot out from under the barrier and rushed straight towards the exit.
Qiongqi and Taotie instinctively tried to stop it, but the thing was too fast and had an unstoppable momentum. The two beasts tried their best, but they couldn't even touch the edge of the person.
The light, right before everyone's eyes, bypassed the two beasts' interception and rushed out of the exit.
The group of people who had been guarding outside the barrier rushed over and saw this scene.
Before they could even glance at Shushu and his group, these people darted past them and rushed out.
The area was bustling with people; the entire exit was packed with people. The group of Shushu, who had arrived first, were squeezed to the very back and ignored by everyone.
Only after everyone had run out did Shushu look blankly at Hexin, then at Qiongqi, his head full of question marks.
Finally, the peach tree emerged, and a clear, youthful voice rang out: "Um, sorry, I forgot that I'm standing on the Eastern Emperor Bell."
Millet looked shocked: "So the bright light just now was the Eastern Emperor Bell?"
Lu Li hesitated before adding, "That ancient artifact?"
The peach tree, meeting two pairs of incredulous eyes, felt a little guilty but still answered truthfully, "Yes...yes."
Then, it heard a series of gasps all around it.
Looking around, everyone present was speechless with shock. Peach Blossom Tree felt even more guilty and stammered, "It's just that I slept for too long and forgot."
After saying that, it didn't dare to look at everyone's expressions anymore, and with a whoosh, it quickly fled back to He Xin's sea of consciousness.
It felt that if it didn't run away, those two ferocious beasts would come up and tear it apart. The tree was too scary, so it had to hide.
Thinking this, it curled itself up even tighter, shrinking deep into He Xin's sea of consciousness, determined never to show itself again.
Meanwhile, the crowd outside gradually came to their senses as it made its escape.
Thinking of the ancient artifact, the Eastern Emperor Bell, which they had just missed, everyone's faces were filled with complex emotions and regret.
Fortunately, those present were relatively easygoing. After feeling frustrated for a while, they realized that the Eastern Emperor Bell was not meant for them, so they let it go and turned their attention back to their business.
With the emergence of the Eastern Emperor Bell, it's easy to imagine that things must be very lively outside right now, giving them a perfect opportunity to sneak out.
Without further ado, Shushu gave a shout and then ignored the protests of Qiongqi and Taotie, quickly taking all the members except Lu Li into his space.
Then, she and Lu Li cautiously peeked out to see what was happening outside.
Just as they expected, the area outside the ruins was completely chaotic.
The Eastern Emperor Bell leaped and scurried about, dodging left and right, desperately searching for a way out in an attempt to escape.
Meanwhile, the various Celestial Emperors who had arrived at some unknown time were putting all their efforts into intercepting it. No matter which direction the Eastern Emperor Bell ran, someone was waiting for it.
In addition, there are a bunch of Earth Immortals and Golden Immortals below assisting, launching attacks from time to time to hinder the Eastern Emperor Bell.
Although it couldn't have any substantial impact on the Eastern Emperor Bell, it still had the air of a novice beating a master, and the Eastern Emperor Bell was extremely annoyed.
The longer it drags on, the more Donghuangzhong will regret it.
