Chapter 0112: Nascent Yin Yang Single Sword Strike
He held the crystal in his hand and brushed off the dust to discover that it was a sparkling stone. As for whether or not it was an immortal root, he was not sure.
Whoosh!
When he took the crystal, the skeleton crumbled into dust at his touch, falling to the floor and scaring Lan Shuiyue again.
"Ming Long, is this an immortal root?" Wu Yu asked tersely.
"Who allowed a little brat like you to call me by name? I just saved your life. Got nothing from it, eh?" Ming Long blinked her shining eyes.
"...Almighty Dainty Beauty, is this an immortal root?" Wu Yu found those words hard to mouth, but Ming Long adored it.
"This girl is not in a good mood. I'm feeling to lazy to continue this conversation. Don't disturb me, I'm going to sleep." She vanished.
"Alright then...."
Wu Yu could not do anything to her. After calling a few more times, he desisted when she did not deign to respond. He put the crystal into his Sumeru Pouch, then started considering another problem: how to get out?
Lan Shuiyue stared at him from the side, resentful. "It's said that all who discover a treasure have a share. You're just grabbing it for yourself?"
Although she did not think that it was an immortal root, anything that could persist until now had to be something special....
"Say another word and I'll cut your tongue out."
This girl had already caused him considerable trouble, and even tried to kill him. Although that was all behind them now, Wu Yu still detested her. Although they were one man and one woman in the same room, and she was a beauty in her own right, Wu Yu had no stray thoughts.
If he really hooked up with her and could not shrug her off later, that would really be trouble.
An emotional debt was not so easily repaid.
"You! Don't let me get the chance, or I'll make you beg." Lan Shuiyue hugged.
Wu Yu ignored her. He paced the small chamber, observing. Besides the skeleton, he found nothing in the area.
The stone platform in the middle was just rock with nothing special about it.
Wu Yu tapped the surrounding stones, as well as those above and under. They were indeed solid.
"Since the above passage is sealed, does this means that I'm trapped here with no way out?"
This caused him to worry a little.
After all, being trapped in such a deep place to die was also a fairly horrible thing.
"I came down this passage, only to get sealed here. Unbelievable. Who would have done this?"
Wu Yu was still very calm.
On the other side, Lan Shuiyue was also looking. After she came to the same conclusion, she abruptly sat on the floor and burst into tears again.
"Who would have thought that I, Lan Shuiyue, would be trapped to die in this place! "I...."
She cried in a very miserable way.
"Shut your mouth!"
Wu Yu loathed how noisy she was. His outburst made her stop crying. She shrank in a corner, hugging her knees and weeping. Right before their deaths, she was clearly in no mood to quarrel with Wu Yu.
Wu Yu did not notice.
He was thinking that there might be some mechanism. Once triggered, he could leave the place.
That was why he did not pass up on even an inch of ground. He began to search, knock, and even use his spiritual power to check for any abnormalities.
"If you don't want to die here, come and help."
Lan Shuiyue was not a bad person, just an arrogant one. And her close shave with death this time would definitely have changed her. In response to Wu Yu's encouragement, she obediently joined him to search for a way to leave.
One man and one woman. Their every heartbeat and breath was amplified in the quiet chamber.
Wu Yu was secretly glad that he had pulled her down; otherwise, being down here alone with no living company would overwhelm him with loneliness.
"Perhaps Master, Senior Sister, and the others have presumed me dead, and are mourning me.
"I must get out."
Wu Yu continued to struggle hard, unwilling to give up.
