The Forbidden Moon Rock Demons let out deep cries with confused expressions.

As Nanyu mentioned, the Forbidden Moon Rock Demons did not have eyes, and their hearing was quite bad, too. They were only able to sense moving objects around them through vibrations on the ground.

Ai Jiangtu was clearly right in front of them, yet after being on alert for some time, the creatures returned to the walls and went back to sleep.

”It's working!” Ai Jiangtu raised his thumb at Nanyu.

Nanyu said to the others with a wide smile, ”Let's continue!”

The team stepped onto the orange-red ground in the canyon, yet the Forbidden Moon Rock Demons in the walls did not wake up.

Using the same method, the team advanced around five hundred meters before the path started to meander. They had to work together to successfully set the path. Luckily, the team had a rather unique Contracted Beast, the Night Rakshasa. The little, intelligent cat demon was quite reliable!

The journey was fairly smooth.

However, judging from the presence of the Forbidden Moon Rock Demons in the walls, it was obvious that the number of Forbidden Moon Rock Demons had increased significantly, not to mention that the creatures this far into the canyon were a lot stronger. The team was almost got into trouble at times when the devices were not connected properly.

”We'll be there soon. We can leave this canyon after turning the next corner,” said Nanyu.

”The corner is quite sharp. It will be tricky to place the devices. We can only continue moving forward after someone retrieve the device at the back,” said Ai Jiangtu.

”I'll go take it,” said Mo Fan.

Mo Fan happened to be at the back of the team. He decisively turned around to retrieve the device at the back just so the team could turn the corner successfully.

”After you retrieve the device, you have to regroup with us immediately. Don't stay there for too long,” warned Nanyu.

”Don't worry, I'm not slow either,” said Mo Fan.

Nanyu nodded. She signaled the team to move forward and stayed behind the corner...

It was only the safe spot. Otherwise, once Mo Fan retrieved the device at the back, the whole place would be filled with danger.

Mo Fan went to the back and glanced at the sky that was slightly orange-yellow from the canyon. The sky looked stretched from the gap of the cliffs. It was quite a spectacular view.

”Aren't you going to apologize?” Lu Yilin's voice came from behind.

Mo Fan turned around and saw Lu Yilin standing around seventy meters away from him with a dark face.

”Apologize for what?” asked Mo Fan in return.

”Hehe, what do you say?” Lu Yilin slowly walked toward the second device with a mocking grin.

Lu Yilin was obviously showing his intentions. If Mo Fan did not apologize to him, he would deactivate the second device and let Mo Fan be surrounded by the Forbidden Moon Rock Demons.

The others had already turned the corner. They did not realize what was going on.

”Oh, I will apologize, I'm sorry for calling you a little princess that can't even stand any shock, as not only did I discover that you're an arrogant little princess that can't handle the slightest grievance, you're also a narrow-minded retard threatening me with such a childish act,” Mo Fan was completely speechless at the man's actions.

”Do you think I don't dare to do it?” said Lu Yilin in a cold voice. His eyes flickered with strong anger.

”It's up to you, but you should think about the consequences before you do,” answered Mo Fan.

Saying this, Mo Fan turned around and continued walking toward the device he was going to retrieve. He was still around ten meters away.

Mo Fan remembered Nanyu mentioned that he had to reach the corner within two seconds after he retrieved the device. He had already planned how he was going to leave at his quickest pace.

However, before Mo Fan reached the device, the walls on both sides started shaking.

Countless jagged faces popped out from the rocks with stern looks. Following the faces came the creatures' bodies, densely poking out from the walls; there were simply too many of them!

Mo Fan immediately turned around and saw Lu Yilin picking up the device at the corner. The man was watching him with an evil grin.

Mo Fan was stunned. Frankly speaking, he never thought Lu Yilin would really dare to pick up the device, as he had a self-willed yet cowardly face!

Mo Fan had to admit that he had underestimated how narrow-minded he was. He also underestimated how vicious the man's heart was!

”Are you trying to get me killed?” asked Mo Fan.

”Humph, so what? Who's childish and young now?” Lu Yilin gave Mo Fan a last disdainful look and left.

Lu Yilin did not dare to stay any longer, as the place would be flooded with the Forbidden Moon Rock Demons in seconds.
