Chapter 1301: Extremely Strong Luck

Chapter 1301: The Strongest Luck

"You... you damn..."

Chu Tianqiu felt that he had completely infuriated Xiao Ran. Now he could only deal with things as they came, unsure just how strong Yun Yao's "yun" was today.

Could a "shen shou" actively avoid a fight in this kind of situation?

"Damn..." Xiao Ran stepped back a few paces, her back pressed directly against the wall. "Don't remove the eyeballs... If you do, how am I supposed to report back to Qing Long... You damn fool, you're more trouble than you're worth..."

"Hmm?" Chu Tianqiu showed a puzzled expression. "That sounds a bit outrageous. Aren't we enemies? You're a 'shen shou', and I'm a 'zao fan zhe'. What reason do I have to help you?"

"Yes... I originally wanted to spare your lives out of old sentiments and only kill that bitch Yun Yao... But now it seems you're all asking for death..." Xiao Ran said through gritted teeth. "You just wait... Now you're all my mortal enemies..."

To everyone's surprise, after making these threats, Xiao Ran didn't attack. She simply leaned against the wall, angrily scanning the room, and said:

"You wait... You 'zao fan zhe', just you wait... Where's Qing Long? Damn, where did Qing Long go?"

Chu Tianqiu and Yun Yao exchanged glances, then furrowed their brows. He boldly speculated about the current situation: Xiao Ran had just been chased by a group of "lou yi" and only reluctantly used "yue qian" in a dire situation. Combining that with her recent behavior... Was it possible that she hadn't mastered "hui xiang" at all?

A "shen shou" who hadn't strengthened her body and hadn't mastered "hui xiang" – was that the reason "ji qiang zhi yun" had let her enter?

Xiao Ran looked around the room for a while, and her gaze quickly settled on the door in front of Tian Tian. Since Qing Long wasn't here, the only possibility was that he had gone through that door.

She let out an angry laugh and said:

"If Qing Long finds out you're causing trouble here... You're dead..."

Seizing the moment when no one was paying attention, she rushed forward and shoved Tian Tian aside, then pounded hard on the door:

"Qing Long! Are you in there?! Something's happened outside – come out quickly!"

Tian Tian fell to the ground, but she still closed her eyes expressionlessly, as if reinforcing her final memory.

Zhang Chenze and Yun Yao stepped forward to help Tian Tian up, asking with concern:

"Are you okay?"

Tian Tian muttered with her eyes closed:

"The pattern on the last board is three long and nine short... twelve cracks... I've memorized it all..."

"Memorized it?"

Tian Tian opened her eyes and said seriously to the people in front of her:

"We can go! Let's head back quickly!"

Everyone knew that time was of the essence. For Tian Tian to memorize the entire complex pattern on that wooden door with her mind wasn't easy, so they had to get to the room where Qi Xia was before she forgot.

But just as Chu Tianqiu was about to reach out and push the door, he suddenly thought of something.

In this situation, could he still get out? Although Xiao Ran wasn't a threat, she had brought a group of "lou yi" waiting outside the door. As soon as he opened the door, he would likely be attacked by the "lou yi". Although he might not die, all his "weapons" would disappear.

Yun Yao seemed to notice Chu Tianqiu's concern and quickly stepped forward, patting his shoulder and saying:

"Tianqiu... It will be fine."

Chu Tianqiu turned his head to look at Yun Yao, but he knew that Yun Yao wasn't "yin guo" and couldn't free him with just a "It will be fine."

"Just think of some way..." Yun Yao said. "Now the 'yun' is especially strong; it will definitely protect us."

"Just..." Chu Tianqiu seemed to think of something and looked down at his palm, where lay an ability he had removed from Xiao Ran.

This was probably the only ability from "yun".

He skeptically threw the eyeball into his mouth and simply tested the changes in his body, feeling as if he had wind at his feet and his body was about to detach from space.

It was exactly "yue qian".

"Yun Yao... Your 'yun' seems a bit too strong." Chu Tianqiu laughed. "Not only did you take 'Qiong Qi's' 'yue qian', but you also greatly shortened the mission time."

He reached out and grabbed Tian Tian, turning his head to the other two and saying:

"I'll take Tian Tian to find Qi Xia first; you two be careful."

"Okay!"

Chu Tianqiu opened the door, and at that moment, a group of "lou yi" instantly looked up at him, as if judging whether the target in front of them could be attacked. But in the next second, Chu Tianqiu pulled Tian Tian and disappeared from the spot, leaping dozens of meters away. Before the "lou yi" could reconfirm the target, Chu Tianqiu took Tian Tian even farther.

Yun Yao and Zhang Chenze waited quietly for a while and saw that the "lou yi" in front of them had no intention of attacking, so they carefully stepped forward. At this time, Yun Yao casually picked up the lipstick on the table, and they left the scene for the "lou yi" and "Qiong Qi".

The numerous "lou yi" waited politely like travelers waiting for the subway, letting the two exit before filing in one after another. Screams from Xiao Ran immediately came from inside the room, but neither Yun Yao nor Zhang Chenze paid any attention.

Yun Yao looked at Zhang Chenze and said softly:

"I thought you might want to save her; after all, she seems like a pitiful girl."

Zhang Chenze shook his head and said with a bitter smile:

"I like every smart, brave, and kind girl... but she..."

"Understood."

"Moreover, no one's life in this world is easy..." Zhang Chenze added. "Falling is her own choice; it's not worth pitying."

As the two were talking, they noticed a "tian ji" room not far away open, and a chubby man led Di Gou, Lin Jian, Xiao Xiao, and Zheng Yingxiong out. Each of them had complex expressions on their faces.

"Hey?" Zhang Chenze quickly noticed Di Gou, who looked lazy in the crowd. "Aren't you from 'Zai E Nian' that one..."

"Oh, good morning. Are you guys slacking off too?" Di Gou replied indifferently, but didn't stop walking, continuing forward with the group. However, their direction was not the corridor, but toward the "huo cang" side.

"What are you..." Yun Yao asked puzzled. "... Where are you going?"

Lin Jian swallowed and quietly moved to the side of the two, whispering:

"Things have changed... Yun Yao, Zhang Lvshi... You two quickly find a place to hide... No matter what happens later, don't come out... Remember..."

"Ah?"

"That's it..." Lin Jian said. "Be careful!"

After saying that, he rejoined the crowd and headed toward the "huo cang" side.

But the two soon discovered that this group didn't stop at the already open door; instead, they bypassed Tong Yi and the other "ji dao zhe" at the door and went deeper to another door.
