Chapter 375 grand underground palace (1/2)
Zha Lin laughed coldly and said, ”Director He will have a way, right?”
He Yi Ning looked at Zha Lin with disdain, but said to Shen Qi: ”Don't worry, I'm here.”
Shen Qi looked up at He Yi Ning, her eyes filled with trust.
He Yi Ning raised a hand to brush away the messy hair on Shen Qi's forehead, held Shen Qi's face with both hands and said softly: ”I promised mother that I would protect you well.
Shen Qi immediately covered He Yi Ning's mouth, her eyes filled with anger. ”You're not allowed to say something like that. ”If you want to come together, then you need to walk together.”
He Yi Ning took the opportunity to secretly kiss the center of Shen Qi's palm.
Shen Qi never thought that He Yi Ning would actually secretly kiss his palm in front of so many people. Shen Qi's ears instantly turned red.
When He Yi Ning saw that Shen Qi was shy again, the smile in her phoenix eyes wavered even further.
The two of them were just too small and sweet. In the eyes of others, they were simply full of resentment!
He Yi Ning did not dare be rash. After teasing Shen Qi for a bit, he immediately commanded: ”Open the way.”
He Yi Ning's bodyguards were all talented people. Many of them were personally trained by He Guo Xiang and passed to him by him alone.
The safety of his son was still very important in He Guo Xiang's eyes.
Therefore, He Yi Ning's bodyguards all had the ability to become mercenaries.
Shen Qi stood at the same place, watching as they took out countless parts and components from their backpacks while training, her fingers quickly assembled them.
In just a short while, they had managed to install two soft ladders and steadily lowered them.
He Yi Ning said to Shen Qi: ”Walk behind me.”
Shen Qi glanced at You Qin Yue, and He Yi Ning continued: ”My mother is under my father's protection, so it's enough for me to protect you.”
Shen Qi nodded and followed behind him.
Cui Yue Lan stood at her original position, staring at Shen Qi's back with sinister eyes, her killing intent instantly revealed.
He Yi Ning pulled Shen Qi and slowly walked down, and said: ”Not too far away, will be the entrance to the underground palace. I don't know what will happen next, but you have to be careful. ”
Shen Qi nodded.
Then she remembered that she was behind him, and she nodded and he couldn't see her, so she added, ”Okay. ”I understand.”
He Yi Ning held Shen Qi tightly: ”Don't be afraid.”
Shen Qi carefully followed He Yi Ning down the stairs.
Because the soft ladder was very shaking, Shen Qi had no choice but to support herself as she pulled He Yi Ning along as she carefully walked down.
The further down they went, the weaker the light became.
Someone in front had already switched on a flashlight.
Shen Qi did not know how long she walked for, but as she turned her head, she saw that there was a long queue at the back.
It looks like there were quite a few people who came to the underground palace this time.
Compared to the last time, it was only slightly better.
Although he had come in a hurry and also to rescue his mother-in-law, he did not bring many tools or weapons with him.
However, it seemed that Charin was well-prepared.
After arriving at the bottom, if necessary, he could let Charing's men take the front line while his own men followed behind.
However, the outer perimeter is already so dangerous. I really don't know what will happen after we enter the underground palace!
Shen Qi sighed in the bottom of her heart.
Great Emperor, Seven Fairies! I'm sorry, we didn't mean to disturb your rest!
We were forced!
If you want to blame someone, blame Charing!
Yi Ning and I didn't do anything.
And in the past, we even fought with Tang Mu Si to protect your An Xi.
Therefore, for the sake of our past efforts, bless us to leave without a hitch!
Shen Qi muttered incessantly in her heart, and did not discover that she had already descended from the ground to a depth of several hundred meters underground.
Finally arriving underground, Shen Qi took the flashlight and looked around.
This was an exceptionally large pit.
Looking back, there were still people walking down. Just by looking, Shen Qi estimated that they were at least two to three hundred meters deep, almost as tall as a small hill.
After everyone came down, they put away the ladder and regrouped.
He Yi Ning said: ”Zha Lin, it's not that I don't want to go to the front, but you saw it yourself. You have quite a few people with you, and all of your equipment. It's useless for you to waste my life like this. Why don't you go to the front. Since we are already here, it's impossible for us to return even if we want to. ”
Of course Zha Lin knew that since He Yi Ning and the others had reached this step, they would not be able to go back.
Because the way back had already been destroyed by him.
”Of course.” Zha Lin replied with a smile, ”I'll have to trouble the two of you later.”
Charin's men immediately took over He Yi Ning's bodyguards' tasks and were in charge of leading the way.
He Yi Ning's bodyguards numbered more than thirty, but Zha Lin's numbered more than a few hundred.
He Yi Ning's bodyguards were mostly elites in combat, while Charing Forest's majority were professional tomb robbers.
Therefore, at this point, He Yi Ning's group really could not go any further.
