Chapter 922: Recognised (2/2)

”Could that treasure light have come from this crack?” Before Kong Fei finished his words, another cultivator excitedly pointed towards the crack that Mo Wuji and Wu Liang entered.

Everyone stared at the crack. In reality, this cultivator didn't need to say a thing; everyone could guess that this crack was where that treasure light came from.

Kong Fei said loudly, ”If I'm not wrong, the treasure light should have come from that crack. Everyone, take a look around us. Besides this crack, there are no other peculiarities in the area.”

No one said anything in response to Kong Fei’s words. Their spiritual wills couldn't even reach the bottom of this crack; no oneness willing to take the risk to go down.

”Who has a demon pet? We can get the demon pet to go down first.” After some time, someone in the crowd suggested.

When they heard demon pet, everyone's eyes gathered on a weak looking female cultivator. She hurriedly said, ”My Xiao Duo’s cultivation is too low. It can't go down.”

A cold snort sounded from within the crowd, ”If I had a demon pet, I would have definitely sent it in. Since everyone's here in search for treasures, then we must naturally work together.”

The weak looking female cultivator recognised the cultivator that just snorted; it was a disciple from Nine Evolutions God Sect, Tai Mao. The Nine Evolutions God Sect was notorious for being overbearing. She reluctantly brought out a spiritual beast bag and carefully opened it, ”Xiao Duo, come and take a look whether there's any danger in here. If it's dangerous, then don't go in.”

A little foxlike beast came out of the bag. It seemed to understand the meaning behind its owner's words. It carefully walked to the edge of the crack and peeped down. Thereafter, it turned and walked away; it seemed as though there was some sort of danger within the crack.

A gold robed man came forward and directly kicked the beast down the crack.

”You…” When the weak looking female cultivator saw her beast being kicked down, she was instantly filled with anxiety. However, she didn't dare to complain because the person who kicked her beast was Nine Evolutions God Sect's Tai Mao. It was also because of him that she grudgingly brought her beast out in the first place.

”Tai Mao, that's too much. There's clearly some danger within that crack, and you actually kicked someone else's beast inside it…” Qu You originally didn't want to stand out and speak. However, she thought about the cultivator that helped her at the God Domain Nest seafloor. That person didn't even know her but he came forward to help; he didn't even ask for anything in return.

Before Qu You finished speaking, she suddenly jolted. She finally understood why the cultivator that challenged Senior Brother Death felt familiar.

That person was the one that saved her at the seafloor of God Domain Nest. He definitely was.

Qu You definitely didn't believe that someone would unintentionally save her twice. Now, she even suspected that Mo Wuji was a secret admirer and he was silently protecting her from the shadows. It was just that his cultivation was far stronger than hers, which was why she didn't notice it right away.

As she thought of this, Qu You's heart suddenly started to pound heavily. It wasn't because she fell in love with Mo Wuji, but because she anxiously wanted to find this person that saved her. If this person didn't help her in the God Domain Nest, she, Qu You, would have already been killed. No matter who he was, she should take him personally.

”It was just a beast.” Tai Mao said faintly. He dared to scold that nameless female cultivator but he didn't dare to do that to Qu You.

At almost the same instant that Tai Mao uttered those words, a shrill cry resounded from within that crack. Everyone turned and faced one another. They all heard it clearly; that cry should have come from that beast called Xiao Duo.

After that beast went down, it only cried out before there weren't any further signs of life from it. Although everyone sent their spiritual will in, they didn't notice anything.

”Xiao Duo…” The weak looking female cultivator cried out in grief. Very clearly, she was very close with Xiao Duo.

”I will take my leave first.” An early stage Nascent God didn't hesitate to turn and leave.

Treasures were good, but only if one was alive to enjoy them. He was only an early stage Nascent God, even if there weren't any dangers within the crack, he wouldn't have been able to snatch the treasure over everyone else here.

Following the departure of that cultivator, several others left consecutively.

”Junior Sister Qu, what about you?” Kong Fei turned to Qu You and asked.

Qu You shook her head, ”I will wait for now.”

Her heart was slightly in disarray. If that cultivator that just went down was the same one that saved her in God Domain Nest Sea, then he would have saved her twice. Now that she knew that there were dangers within the crack, should she try to go down and save him?

…

Just as Mo Wuji entered the crack, five streams of killing intent swept towards him, seemingly enveloping the entire space.

Mo Wuji could be considered a battle-hardened man. The moment he entered the crack, he immediately used his domain to protect himself. His spiritual will also detected that Wu Liang had laid an ambush. He clearly saw Wu Liang charge straight into the depths of the crack. However, that fella was actually able to prepare an ambush at the entrance.
