Seeing someone ask in the review section why there was only one chapter updated yesterday, uh, I updated a two-in-one chapter yesterday! Thanks to my brother on the right hand for today’s 10,000 starting coins, and to all the other brothers, thank you everyone! This chapter will feature two guest appearances from readers, brother Han Yihao and his girlfriend Sun Yang. Old Phantom didn’t go back on his word, hahaha!
Even if Yangos were to fly overhead right now, Ye Zhongming would not be so surprised. However, the sudden appearance of these two people truly startled him.
To be precise, the clothing of these two individuals was quite tattered, their complexions weren’t great, and there was a hint of despondency in their expressions. Furthermore, the male’s exposed skin bore various old and new scars, and outwardly, there was nothing shocking about them.
Although they were not bound, it was evident that they were being guarded by the Dabu Tribe, with four strong warriors of levels three to four standing close by.
These two were clearly criminals, prisoners of the Dabu Tribe.
What made Ye Zhongming so astonished was that the torn clothes they wore were made of the exact same material as his own!
Moreover, they exuded the aura of evolvers!
They were Earthlings!
Ye Zhongming couldn’t understand how, with the Key of the Secret Realm in his hand and being the only one able to enter it, these two obviously Earthling man and woman appeared here. Could it be that there were other passages leading to this secret realm on Earth? Had others already come here before him?
This is what Ye Zhongming focused on most right now.
Facing such a mysterious place, Ye Zhongming had many thoughts and plans swirling in his mind. He might not be the smartest person, but he had a habit of turning all dangers and surprises into his advantages and resources.
Not to mention, the vast amount of magic crystals discarded here like garbage was something Ye Zhongming would never give up! If there were really others who could reach this place… a dangerous spark ignited in Ye Zhongming’s eyes.
Han Yihao and Sun Yang kept their heads slightly bowed, believing it was yet another interrogation.
They had been trapped here for a long time, so long that each minute and second in this place without day and night felt like an eternity.
They actually knew that according to Earth’s calculations, they had been stuck in this predicament for less than a year, but the days were so difficult to endure...
After entering the tent, the couple felt extremely anxious, uncertain of what the outcome of this interrogation would be. Would it be the same as before, filled with insults, or would it escalate to beatings and kicks, or even, would they take it a step further and kill them?
After being forced to spend several months learning the language here, pretending to be foolish to avoid questioning was becoming increasingly ineffective. They didn’t know how much longer they could hold out.
Unfortunately, the things they said were not believed by the locals at all. They didn’t believe the two were from a place called Earth, didn't believe in its civilization and technology, didn't believe in its prosperity and wonder. They were convinced that they were just people from the Temple of Dawn.
Han Yihao and Sun Yang often felt frustrated. They were not believed when they spoke of the posthumous child, yet they were forced to admit to things about the Temple of Dawn. Wasn't that insane? Moreover, although they were not strong, and had suffered heavy losses in the secret realm, they still had the pride of being Earthlings. They were not people of the Temple of Dawn; they were Earthlings!
They just didn’t know if they could endure this interrogation this time around.
But today was a bit strange; this seemed to be Chief Dabu's tent. Wasn’t this team supposed to be out hunting? Why would they think to interrogate the couple? Additionally, there seemed to be more interrogators today...
As evolvers, although their powers had been suppressed to around two stars since entering this place, their senses were still sharp. The couple felt a gaze fixated on them, hot and different from other posthumous children.
