"Wait or go out now?"
"Let's wait. If Wen Yu doesn't agree, this really will be our last 27 minutes!"
Hearing Ye Nan's words, both Arcade and Zhang Shaojie fell silent.
It was true, but it did feel a bit pessimistic...
"Have a drink."
Ye Nan took out a large pile of food and drinks from the Spatial Ring and placed them in front of Arcade and Zhang Shaojie.
"Farewell drinks?"
"More or less..."
Even at the brink of life and death, Ye Nan's expression remained calm—knowing that Wan Ping was most likely not going to escape, Ye Nan was truly ready to face death...
For a moment, the gloomy mood also infected Zhang Shaojie and Arcade. The three clinked glasses, and the atmosphere became somewhat heavy.
Unfortunately, this moment of "understanding life and death" did not last long...
"Duang~~"
A sudden tremor shook the entire space.
"An earthquake?"
The three exchanged glances, somewhat puzzled.
They had never heard of something like an earthquake in a so-called Spatial Door...
"Duang, duang!!"
There were two more sounds, followed by waves of rippling patterns that emanated from the entrance of the Spatial Door.
Seeing this, the three suddenly changed their expressions.
This seemed like a sign that the Spatial Door was being breached...
Now, who had that capability?
Wen Yu!
Only Wen Yu had that possibility!
If this was really the case, then the three's act of buying their lives was just a joke!
Before Ye Nan and the others could finish their thoughts, an intense scratching sound suddenly echoed from the entrance of the Spatial Door in front of them.
Along with it came a faint “hissing” sound that drew nearer.
The sound resembled the judgment of the god of death, lingering in Ye Nan's ears, clear and prolonged...
However, it did not actually take long. Ye Nan only felt a flash of emerald green light in front of him, and in the next second, a tremendous force swept over his arm.
It was powerful but without any killing intent, and it did not cause him any harm.
However, after the emerald green light passed, the "money for life" that Ye Nan had in his hand had already disappeared...
Ye Nan stared at his empty hand, looking bewildered at Arcade and Zhang Shaojie, who were equally dumbfounded, and after a while, let out a bitter sigh.
"Let’s go. Since others can come in, we have no need to hide!"
...
Outside, the tremors in Wen Yu's mind had yet to settle.
But at least it was better than before—just earlier, the world in Wen Yu's eyes had been black and white, but now it had turned into a dizzying swirl.
Everything happening outside had been precisely conveyed to him through a mental connection with the spirit pets—after realizing that the spirit pets could effectively soothe his mental turmoil, Xing and the other three spirit pets had been non-stop talking.
"The Heaven-Piercing Demon Vine transformed into light and directly entered the Spatial Door. With a slap, the vortex on the door stopped spinning. In the blink of an eye, the Heaven-Piercing Demon Vine re-emerged from the Spatial Door, with a compass-like object hanging from its tip..."
The one-eyed spirit pet narrated the situation outside in detail to Wen Yu's mind as if telling a story.
"Alright, alright, I'm feeling much better. Plus, being so close, I can sense what’s happening with my eyes closed."
Wen Yu felt significantly improved and decisively interrupted the one-eyed spirit pet.
Ahead, the Heaven-Piercing Demon Vine crawled in front of Wen Yu like a child that had made a mistake, hesitantly swaying its branches.
The treasure land key hanging from the tip of the branch immediately rang with a "ding ding dong" sound.
Wen Yu gritted his teeth against the pain in his mind, slowly sat up, and sensed the mental wave of "open it" transmitted from the Heaven-Piercing Demon Vine. He resolutely spread his hands.
"My head hurts, I can't open it!"
"Ding ding ding..."
The Heaven-Piercing Demon Vine shook more violently.
But Wen Yu remained unmoved.
Wen Yu's mindset was simple—understand the distinction between master and servant! I am the master, everything is led by me! You can do whatever you want, but if you throw a tantrum, I cannot tolerate that!
