Chapter 843: Chapter 847: The Fourth Trial 20
When the people around her all looked at her with admiring eyes, Qiu Mo seemed to understand why Su Tang wanted her to speak.
She subconsciously wanted to explain.
Before she could say anything, Su Tang interrupted her.
"Momo’s right, since everyone’s well-rested, let’s set out. I’m terribly anxious not seeing Bai Que," Su Tang said.
Upon hearing this, Yadang immediately stood up.
"What are we waiting for? Let’s go, let’s go!" he urged.
The group retraced their steps back.
When they all stood in front of Cave Five, their mood couldn’t help but become somewhat heavy again.
They gripped the Muxian Order tightly in their hands, ready to break it and leave This Cave immediately if anything seemed off.
Gaiyin and Xi led the way.
Su Tang and Qiu Mo stood in the middle.
Yadang and Xi’en brought up the rear.
Their first reaction upon entering Cave Five was darkness!
This Cave was especially dark. How dark was it?
So dark that even with a hand placed in front of one’s face, its shape couldn’t be seen.
This abnormal darkness gave Su Tang a feeling of certainty.
The cave selection should be correct. It was just so dark that it was unnervingly silent inside.
Su Tang tried to open her eyes wide and took a step forward, only to stumble over a stone underfoot.
Accompanied by a sensation of falling, Su Tang cried out in alarm, then landed in a pair of warm arms.
"Be careful."
Above her was Gaiyin’s deep, husky voice, laden with masculine Qi—so pleasant that it made one’s heart flutter.
Because it was pitch black before her eyes, Su Tang felt like a fish out of water, clinging tightly to Gaiyin’s arm.
"Ayin, can you see?" she asked.
"Yes, I can. Don’t worry, there’s nothing here. It’s safe," he said.
As he spoke, he kicked the stone that had tripped Su Tang to the side and added, "Oh, only four stones."
Hearing this, Su Tang quickly asked, "Are the positions of these four stones the same as those in the clue diagram?"
"Yes."
Receiving an affirmative response, Su Tang breathed a sigh of relief.
"Let’s go. If nothing unexpected happens, it’s definitely Cave Four," she said.
Beastmen all possess Night Vision Ability.
Even though it was so dark that they couldn’t see their fingertips, this didn’t affect them in the slightest.
Gaiyin, holding Su Tang, and Xi, holding Qiu Mo, led the group quickly out of the cave.
Fortunately, the light inside the cave was not particularly bright; otherwise, their eyes would surely have suffered.
After emerging, they looked around but still found no trace of Bai Que and the others.
Su Tang began to doubt herself as well.
Could their previous speculation have been wrong?
Had Bai Que and his team already been eliminated?
Su Tang’s brows were so furrowed they were nearly knotted.
"Don’t overthink it. Let’s keep moving forward," Gaiyin seemed to discern Su Tang’s thoughts and gently smoothed her brow.
With a hum, Su Tang said, "Luck is part of strength, but luck always runs out. I don’t believe they can rely on luck to make it to the end!"
Everyone smiled wryly at her words.
Before entering Cave Four, Xi said, "If Su Tang is right, the clue this time should be a sound. Let’s all be careful."
The group nodded in agreement, then entered Cave Four with solemn faces. 𝖓𝔬𝔳𝔭𝔲𝔟.𝖈𝖔𝔪
Everyone walked very lightly, not daring to make the slightest sound, afraid to miss the clue.
But after a long time of walking, they didn’t even encounter a sound, let alone see a stone or a grain of sand.
Just as someone was about to lose their patience and speak up,
