Ceo’s Fierce Lady Immortal - Chapter 276
Su Ci Yi looked at the deep hole just below. There was an untraceable doubt in her chest. Her sword didn’t come back at all!
Someone was underneath the ground!
Preventing her sword to come up upon her call.
Su Ci Yi didn’t expect this situation. To think that someone is underground, this is no trivial matter to take. She isn’t dumb to speculate who is in the ground. Probably someone who is not ordinary at all. The threshold of mediocre is also out of the question.
Sensing that it will take longer before her sword came back, she leaped at the back and join Sang Shui’s group. The turn of events also stunned the others and ended up in a blank state. Nevertheless, they didn’t lose hope in Su Ci Yi.
” What’s the matter? Why it didn’t come back?” Lingua Liu asked in a decisive manner. His nerve tensed when he saw her hands empty.
“Hahahah! See! I told you, the sword didn’t get back to her! I’m not wrong at all!” Jing Sang boasted with confidence. Su Ci Yi’s loss in the sword is his victory. A sense of schadenfreude appeared in his mood.
SMACK!
Not one, but two hands smack Jing Sang at the back of his head. He was familiar with Sang Shui’s strength, but the unknown strength was too much that he slumped on the ground.
Looking above, it was Qin Yu who had smacked him!
The nerve!
This human lackey!
Jing Sang tried to glare at him, but when he saw Sang Shui’s black aura, he didn’t dare to make any move at all. Yikes, Sang Shui is too scary when he’s angry.
“Yi, tell us what happened? ” Sang Shui gently spoke. His tone was neither hurried and harsh.
” When I soul call, the sword responded but there is an entity below that is preventing it from further going up. The entity is still unknown and I have a very bad feeling about it.”
Su Ci Yi explained.
Furthermore, Su Ci Yi thought that this is the first time that a vortex opened up in here. She had heard stories of land opening up back then in her sect. Based on the stories, it isn’t something that any mortals could thread. Even cultivators may have a hard time dealing with it.
The vortex is sinister.
It rooted in the depths of the ground. Who knows whatever lurks below. No immortal had set foot on it. That was why it was based on rumors. The fact was still unknown to the land.
But the fact that Su Ci Yi’s knowledge in the vortex is still unknown, even made her understanding of the situation limited. She only knew that it just worsens five years ago and its dangerous effects worsen each and every day.
In this issue of hers, only one person could make it elaborate further.
” This vortex is situated in the inner part of the forest.” Lingua Liu spoke in a coherent manner. ” No one will be able to notice this because no hunters will have the courage to seek the deepest part of it.”
Sang Shui and Jing Sang nodded. Even they didn’t want to thread this part of the land.
Lingua Liu continue to speak his explanation of the situation.
” The inner part was sinister and the vilest, on the night without the moon, the horrible sound of preys echoed inside. One may hear it and chills will run on their spine. Even the most agile and strong predators can’t scape the hole and would be swallowed by it. Yes. Swallow, literally. Since the hole is getting bigger and bigger with each passing time, the more it consumes energy from the upper level, the more it became dangerous and vivid.”
This is lingua Liu’s ascertain of the situation.
He had once observed this hole, but at that time, it was still small and didn’t exude poisonous gas that could erode the skin. He observed it for many nights and days, and this is what he had learned about it.
“We should get back now. It’s getting dark and it’ll be more dangerous.”
“What about the sword?” Jing Sang asked.
” Leave it here. There’s no way that it’ll come up any moment soon.”
“What? Are you just going to leave it here?” Jing Sang really loves to play the devil’s advocate. Contradicting Su Ci Yi is already a part of his life.
Su Ci Yi raised her eyebrows. A sharp gleam of gaze directed to Jing Sang, ” Or do you want to wait here for the sword?”
“But!”
Qin Yu stayed quiet all these times, yet his attention was focused on the surroundings. He heard the banters, the irritating talk of Jing Sang, and he couldn’t bear to listen to him at all. Qin Yu stepped forward, drag him by the collar, and throw him a few meters away from him. He’s known for his limited patience. And when he didn’t find pleasantries on a person’s personality, he will really cut him off in his life.
Jing Sang, like a black garbage bag, was thrown on the ground.
Sang Shui also saw him but didn’t help him at all. Jing Sang deserved it.
Lingua Liu didn’t care as well.
“Anyway, any moment I can still soul call it and it will respond to my bidding wherever I go. It will come to me no matter what… only if no one is forcing it to stay below the ground.”
The night sky was gradually swallowing the sky. The noise of a few migrating birds were already heard from the distance. The chilly atmosphere had begun to spread on the whole forest.
The group was about to leave. Return to their abode and took rest for the night.
However, Su Ci Yi stopped her track when they were still in the middle of the forest.
“What is it?”
Qin Yu was the first to feel her strange movement.
Something is coming! Su Ci Yi’s nerved alerted.
Su Ci Yi turned around. She felt the fluctuations of her incoming sword.
“Watch out!”
Su Ci Yi didn’t need to dodge it since it was hers…
Wait!
Something is attached to the spiritual energy on the sword?!
Su Ci Yi dodged to the sideline, but she didn’t expect it to turn around skillfully like a boomerang effect.
It swept all the people on the sideline and head straight to Su Ci Yi!
When it reached her, that unknown substance attached to the sword drag her with it and flew her in the wind, in the fastest speed, headed right straight to the hole, dragging her along with it!
“Jing Sang, your vines!” Sang Shui shouted from afar.
“On it!” Jing Sang pulled his vines and caught Su Ci Yi’s waist. Holding her for a second on the ground.
But the wind that passed by, cut it down in just one swift!
Su Ci Yi was dragged again by the sword.
In a desperate situation, Su Ci Yi pulled her dagger and dig it on the tree that she was about to pass. Clutching the hilt of the dagger tightly, preventing her from dragging inside the vortex.
“Hold my hand!” Qin Yu didn’t know where he got his speed. He reached Su Ci Yi’s hand to stop her from getting drag away. But before he could even reach her, a forceful wind came from the ground. It formed an appearance like a chain and shackling Su Ci Yi’s feet in an instant.
Dragging her forcefully, violently, down the deep and dark hole of the forest.
Sweeping her in just one instant.
When she disappeared, the forceful wind stop and Qin Yu remained standing with his hand still extended in the air.
