1892 We're Going Down

"Woof, woof, woof, woof, woof!" The three puppies hopped into Qiao Mu's arms and onto her shoulder. One of them even pounced toward her face, but the little fellow caught it in her hand.

Everyone twitched their mouths.

Ma Ta wanted to tease her, but they suddenly heard a deafening rumble in the distance.

Since they were in the air, everyone was able to see far away. As such, they immediately glimpsed sight of an armored tail churning about as it went over a mountain peak.

"Holy sh*t, what is that thing?" Ma Ta yelped, "It couldn't be some mutated earthworm playing tricks right?"

You Xin and the other people from Sunlight Academy exchanged glances, and they could see the terror in each other's eyes.

"Mentor, what should we do now?" He Wei asked anxiously.

"We'll descend the mountain first!"

However, they did not have the time to do that. A large fissure opened up in the mountain as broken rocks tumbled beneath their feet, and a strong sucking force came from the depths of the earth.

"Ah! Mentor." You Xin lost her balance, and her face paled as she promptly got sucked in.

Only then did everybody discover that a large hole had cracked open on the mountainous path, and You Xin had been sucked into it.

Mo Lian quickly pulled Qiao Mu into his arms, and he was just about to fly up with a leap.

Yet Qiao Mu suddenly patted Mo Lian's arm. "Little Water tells me that it senses a black spirit jade mine below."

Upon hearing this, Mo Lian paused, and that force was now sucking steadily.

The Little Despot's face turned sullen, and just as he was about to wrest control of this sucking force, Mo Lian's voice entered his ears. "We're going down."

"Xuanxuan, everybody be careful!" Qiao Mu instructed, and Crown Prince Mo jumped into the hole first with her.

Without Mo Lian, Feng Chen, the Little Despot, and company controlling the sucking force, the remaining people naturally were unable to withstand it, and they all got sucked into the ground.

After entering that hole, they could hear other people's wails and howls. Other than Mo Lian and the Little Despot's group that voluntarily jumped into this hole, the other people had all been sucked inside. All of them were incomparably frantic. They could feel themselves tumbling downwards, like they were going to be swallowed up by the earth.

Mamma mia!!

This wasn't game over right!

Why couldn't they jump up even when they propelled themselves with spiritual energy?

This sucking force was too strong!

It was pitch-black all around them, so no one knew where they had tumbled to by now…

They only struggled with all their might, trying again and again to suspend themselves in the air.

However, it was all in vain!

Everybody couldn't help but tumble down along this black and uneven tunnel.

It wasn't until they heard You Xin's screech in the distance that everybody's heart clenched, and they silently recited Amitabha in their hearts. They were probably about to reach the bottom!

*Boom!*

*Flop, flop!* Everybody landed on top of each other in a human pyramid.

Mo Lian steadied himself while holding Qiao Mu, and he flashed to the side with Feng Chen, the Little Despot, and the others.

Miss Qiao could hear Xuanxuan's scream coming closer, and she quickly reached out to steady her.

"Aiyo, aiyo!" The little fatty who came tumbling over afterwards crashed into Qi Xuanxuan's back, causing the two of them to lose their balance before rolling together on the ground.

After them came Duanmu Qing, who flew down and landed firmly beside Mo Lian.
