Chapter 1144: Long Feiye’s huge gif (1/2)

t

Faced with Long Feiye’s apology, Han Yunxi was deeply touched. She looked at him dumbly, uncertain of what to say. She knew Qimen Dunjia wasn’t for just anyone, much less something that could be mastered in a year or half.

How much time had passed since she’d been kidnapped? He not only grasped the pinnacle of skill, but all the little details too! Han Yunxi stood on tiptoes and gave Long Feiye a small peck on his check.

“You’re cleared of all charges,” she murmured at him.

Long Feiye smiled as the weight in his heart finally eased.

“Let’s go look for an exit,” Han Yunxi said.

Gu Beiyue then spoke up. “Princess, since it was the direct descendant’s bloodline that unsealed the space, perhaps only that can get us out?”

Last time, they ran into a man-made illusionary world after entering through the wordless stele at the Poison Sect’s sacrificial altar. But this seemed different. Moreover, it was created to protect the resting grounds of the snow wolves, so it was probably impossible to break. They could only leave via an official exit.

Leaving Gu Qishao to guard Bai Yanqing, Han Yunxi’s group went back to their landing spot, where she dripped a drop of blood on the ground. Unfortunately, the drop vanished before it ever touched the earth. They thought an exit would show up after that, but nothing stirred.

How can this be?

The blood vanished in thin air, which means the dimension sucked it away. So why isn’t there an exit?

Han Yunxi couldn’t believe it and tried a few more times, all without success.

“Will we need to use Bai Yanqing’s blood?” Gu Beiyue asked hastily.

Han Yunxi had long collected Poison Gu human blood before her kidnapping, although she had gotten a bit more during the fight in the cliff. She now withdrew a few drops and saw the dimension absorb them, but there was still no reaction.

“Why is it like this?” Gu Beiyue grew uneasy. Long Feiye realized it was a big problem as well. If they couldn’t get out, then they’d be stuck with Bai Yanqing here forever.

“Does Bai Yanqing know a way?” Han Yunxi wondered.

They returned to the woods. By now, Bai Yanqing had realized Long Feiye screwed him over. He was gasping for breath, too exhausted to keep running between the two doors. Instead, he simply stood still to rest. Han Yunxi knew if she asked him directly, Bai Yanqing would use the intel against them as a threat.

“Long Feiye, we need to hide our intentions,” she muttered.

Long Feiye whispered a few words to Han Yunxi and Gu Beiyue, who instantly understood. Soon enough, Gu Beiyue silently entered the array formation to track down Gu Qishao. By the time he came back, Gu Qishao had begun the plan.

Vines flew soundlessly from the Death Door to capture Bai Yanqing, but he sensed it and grinned, knowing a chance had arrived. As long as there was hope of capturing Gu Qishao and dragging him away from the Death Door, a crack would appear in the array formation. Then he’d find a way to get out of here.

Although Bai Yanqing detested Gu Qishao’s mouth, he much preferred to fight him over Long Feiye or Gu Beiyue! After all, a short-tempered guy like Gu Qishao was much easier to deal with than some old foxes. If Gu Qishao was fighting him outright, it might be hard to avoid the vines, but an ambush like this meant they could fight on equal grounds!

Bai Yanqing allowed the vines to get close before suddenly grabbing them with his bare hands. He withdrew quickly while dragging the plants with him, successfully pulling Gu Qishao out of his station at the Death door. Actually, Gu Qishao had predicted as much. He could have snapped the vines himself, but feigned anger and roared, “Bai Yanqing, you tricked me!”

Bai Yanqing had no time to argue with him. As soon as Gu Qishao left his spot, the entire array formation would change. Bai Yanqing only glanced at his new surroundings before fleeing!

Upon his exit, he didn’t see Han Yunxi or the others, only Gu Qishao chasing after him with more vines. With no time to care, Bai Yanqing ran back to the place where he landed and dripped some more blood from his finger.

But he was stunned. Obviously, his blood had opened up this sealed dimension, so it should work again! Why was his blood absorbed before it even hit the ground with no reaction?

He tried again, but failed again.

Now Han Yunxi’s group emerged from the trees. They were also stunned by Bai Yanqing’s actions.

“Bai Yanqing, you have no way to get out either?” Han Yunxi asked.

Bai Yanqing immediately backed away as he realized what was going on. Gu Qishao had let him out on purpose. All of these people were screwing with him! His fury soon gave way to laughter as he chuckled, “Hahah, looks like you’re all stuck too! Perfect!”

He stopped retreating to simply laugh. “Long Feiye, Han Yunxi, in the end it was this old man who won! I won! You two can wait until the dual cultivation deadline is here! This old man will wait! Wait! Hahahaha….”

Han Yunxi’s group stood very quietly as Bai Yanqing chortled in front of them. Hadn’t his very goal been to plot against Han Yunxi and Long Feiye so their dual cultivation could fail and lead them into insanity until they killed each other?
