CHAPTER TEXT:
In the Layered Water Desolation, Pao Bai, who was meditating with his eyes closed, suddenly heard hurried footsteps. He immediately opened his eyes and ran outside.
His current responsibility was to handle matters concerning the Demon Cave. The urgency of someone seeking him indicated that there was an issue at the Demon Cave.
Sure enough, he encountered a warrior as soon as he stepped out, who urged him to hurry to the site. Pao Bai arrived at the monitoring room established before the Demon Cave, and the person in charge immediately said to him, “Lord Ling, look, according to our plan, we have set up monitoring points in each cave. Thanks to the assistance from the Su Clan, we have completed over half of it in these two days. However, here…”
The person in charge opened a frontal map of the Demon Cave and pointed, “Here, Cave No. 5989. After our men entered three hundred meters, they discovered bloodstains. They are not particularly fresh, but they are definitely within three days, so they reported back immediately. However, when the subsequent troops entered, several of the warriors who went in have already disappeared.”
The person's face showed a bit of fear, and after finishing, he added, “Here’s the video from that time; please take a look.”
Pao Bai naturally had questions in his heart. He started watching the video, carefully observing every detail from the moment the exploring members entered.
When they discovered the bloodstains, Pao Bai watched even more closely until they suddenly vanished.
Indeed, the monitoring video suddenly went dark, and several warriors who had entered simply disappeared. The following group of people entered to investigate but found nothing, as if everything had been an illusion, and nothing had happened.
It was too strange and too eerie.
“Send the video for technical processing to see if anything can be discovered?” Pao Bai instructed, then thought for a moment and added, “Temporarily seal off the problematic cave and establish defensive measures at the entrance. Continue exploring other caves.”
At this point, Pao Bai was convinced that there was definitely something wrong inside; he just didn’t know what it was. He planned to make a decision together with the Su Clan and others after conducting a superficial exploration of all the caves.
Pao Bai looked at the dark cave entrance, feeling an impulse to go inside…
………………
Beneath the cave, the voice was roaring again!
“Why alarm the snake in the grass? Why? Isn’t it better to let them continue down to here? Ye Zhongming will definitely come down! That way, I can kill him!”
“What you are doing now will only make them vigilant. What if they don’t come in? I… I can’t get out like this! Can’t get out!”
“Don’t tell me you plan to go kill Ye Zhongming yourself. Back then, you and I were no match for him. Even now, although your strength has surpassed his, don’t forget, they have many people, many! There are great masters inside, not just one!”
“You… you must be feeling anxious because you see someone coming and want to leave?”
“Do you want to leave? Or has your man been dead for too long, and you no longer have feelings for him? Don’t you want to take revenge for him!”
The continuous questioning echoed in the cave, the voice sharp, the emotions violent.
“You better shut up!”
The female voice was clearly much calmer than the first time.
“If you dare to bring this up again, don’t blame me for being rude.”
“I have my own plans. I don’t need you to point fingers at what I should do, do you hear me? Monster!”
After the woman finished speaking, there was silence in the cave for a moment, followed by the almost mad scream of the previous person.
“I am a monster! I am a monster?! Why am I like this? Isn’t it to survive for us back then?”
“I am a monster! Look at the powerful strength I have gained! I’m no longer the one who could only be chased by Cloud Summit; now I can destroy that broken villa countless times on my own!”
