C37 (1/2)

Xin Cang's curved eyes flickered with a scarlet fire. His lips formed a devilish sneer as he thought to himself: God damn evil spirits, do they really think they're paper ghosts? Wanting to deal with me after breaking through the forest? It was simply wishful thinking! You can continue to make it up. Let's see what kind of tricks you can come up with in this book!

”Your majesty the King is overthinking it. With two peerless experts like you by his side, what does Su Jiu have to fear?” Su Jiu Yi cupped his fists, looking as if he was relying on them.

”Since Sister Su has already said so, if This King does not investigate the 'Dragon Pond and Tiger Cave', wouldn't that cause the beauty to be disappointed?” Xin Cang Qu smiled slightly, waved her jade fan, and walked towards the fork in the road first.

Su Jiu looked at Kung Wu and slightly nodded. Then, he followed the song of the letter and walked away.

A devilish smile appeared on Kunlun's face. His cold eyes were like those of a demon who had taken someone's life. He thought to himself, ”Fire Demon, this time, This King will definitely not let you leave this place alive!”

The three of them abandoned their horses and walked. They followed the suspension bridge to the other side of the cliff. After walking over a gentle slope, they finally saw a bamboo forest.

Under the moonlight, the originally emerald green bamboo forest emitted an indescribable glow, and the entire forest was covered in a layer of black fog, giving off a terrifying aura. The forest was covered in a layer of black fog, and a ghostly wail could be heard from within, causing people to unconsciously feel a sense of fear.

From time to time, a gust of cold wind would howl by, bringing with it a strong killing intent that would cause anyone who saw it to halt in their tracks.

Su Jiu looked at the strange forest in front of him and couldn't help but shiver, unconsciously retreating behind Xin Cang Qu. She had been wandering the martial arts world for so long, but she had never seen such a sinister place before. When he thought of the place that had caused her to have nightmares for so many years, Su Jiu's heart became even more uneasy. He raised his hand and instinctively hugged onto Xin Cang Qu's arm.

Xin Cang Qu felt Su Jiu trembling non-stop. She lightly patted her hand and gave a shallow smile. ”Don't worry. With this book, you will naturally protect Sister Su's safety.”

When Su Jiu heard this, he became much more confident. Suddenly, he recalled that when they first met, he had once promised to protect him for his entire life. Now, however, it just so happened to be the opposite and he couldn't help but feel extremely ashamed.

Kungwu waved his jade fan and laughed sinisterly. ”Please, Lord Cang!”

”Wait.” The jade fan slapped the center of his palm with a ”Pa” sound. ”If Your Highness is unfortunate enough to die here, I will have to trouble Your Majesty to erect a tablet for this one.”

Kunlun's cold eyes narrowed. He had indeed guessed it right. He then waved his fan and laughed, ”Definitely!”

”Of course, if Your Highness the Great Emperor were to be buried here, I would also set up a tablet for you!” Xin Cang Qu then opened his jade fan, laughed out loud and walked into the forest fearlessly.

Su Jiu wanted to say something but hesitated and followed him.

When he thought of Xin Cang Qu's arrogant face, Kunlun wanted to kill him very much. He snorted coldly, his gaze locking onto the two figures in the forest, ”Later on, let me see how you can still be proud of yourself.”

”This forest is indeed mysterious. Please be careful, both of you!”

Xin Cang Qu laughed softly, secretly mocking him, deliberately mystifying himself. He then cast a sidelong glance at Kunlun and said, ”With His Highness King Qinguang leading the way, where can we not go in this world?”

”This way please.” Kungwu waved his fan around, guiding the two of them.

Xin Cangchao and Su Jiu followed Quinwu around the forest for a while, but still could not see the end of the forest.

The sky was completely dark. The deeper they went into the forest, the weirder it became. Occasionally, a cold wind would blow past, causing the leaves to dance in the air and emit strange sounds.

He followed close behind him carefully, and at the same time, his heart was also full of doubts. Although the forest had been quite creepy the whole way, it had been quite smooth. He believed that if he went any deeper, it would not be as flat as it was now.

Su Jiu followed closely behind Xin Cang Qu. The sword in his hand had long since left its sheath, and he would occasionally vigilantly scan the surroundings.
