#520 - Chapter 520: Three Divisions
“Xiao Qing, Xiaoyao, Qianqian, and also Wuxin, Changsheng, Xuanxuan, why are you all here?”
Lin Yaoyao was pleasantly surprised to see Xiao Qing and the others.
“Are you allowed to come with Senior Brother, but we're not?” Xiao Qing pretended to be angry.
“Alright, alright, now that everyone's here, let's all take a rest. Are you tired?”
Lin Yaoyao affectionately greeted Xiao Qing and the others.
This made Xiao Qing and the others blush, filled with confusion.
Their Senior Sister was usually aloof and domineering, what's wrong with her today?
However, before everyone could figure out the reason, they were awakened by cries of agony.
Unexpectedly, after only seven steps, they felt unbearable abdominal pain, and one by one, they collapsed to the ground, screaming.
“Xiaobai, what did you do?”
Lin Yaoyao immediately noticed Xiaobai smiling innocently next to those people, and she immediately became angry.
Xiaobai usually couldn't stand his Senior Sister's cold and sarcastic tone, so he immediately made a face, turned around, and hugged his husky, teasing it without saying a word.
Seeing that the atmosphere was not right, Xiao Qing quickly stepped in to smooth things over, saying: "Senior Sister, Senior Brother probably didn't do it on purpose."
Seeing that someone offered her a way out, Lin Yaoyao also said: “They're just a few thieves, it's not a big deal.”
“However, I have something to tell everyone. This ancient ruins is not like our Xiaoyao Peak.”
“This place is full of dangers, and carelessness can lead to death. Even if Master wants to save you, he won't be able to.”
“Now that everyone is here, you must listen to my arrangements!”
After saying these words, Lin Yaoyao thought in her heart that her master was so useless, how could he possibly save them?
Xiao Qing and the others had already gained some understanding of the dangers of this ancient ruins on their way in, so they had no objections.
But Xiaobai was busy teasing his husky, and didn't bother to pay attention to what they were saying.
“Senior Sister, since there are so many of us, we shouldn't be afraid of them. What do we need to do?”
As Xiao Qing spoke, a pair of cute fox ears flickered, highlighting her big, bright eyes and making her even more lively.
Mu Qianqian exuded the arrogance and confidence of a chosen one with every move she made. Hearing this, she stepped forward and said.
“What are we here for in the ancient ruins? Of course, to find treasures.”
These words reminded Lin Yaoyao that she and Xiaobai had been here the longest, but they hadn't found a single treasure.
She had always considered herself the strongest on Xiaoyao Peak, and she couldn't fall behind Mu Qianqian.
Immediately, she followed closely behind Mu Qianqian and walked out of the main hall, saying: “Everyone, hurry up. This place is very strange, so don't make any loud noises.”
Everyone nodded and left the main hall together.
At this time, it was noon in the ancient ruins, and the scorching sun shone mercilessly on everyone, almost melting them.
Outside the main hall, the road split into three paths, left, right, and center, each leading to different destinations.
Everyone looked at the three different paths and couldn't help but fall into contemplation.
Clearly, two of these three paths were definitely full of dangers, and choosing the wrong path could lead to eternal doom.
Xiaobai, who was smiling behind the group, saw everyone hesitating and said: “Don't hesitate, everyone. I have a way to solve this.”
Everyone asked: “What way?”
Xiaobai didn't answer, but put his husky down from his arms and looked at the road ahead.
“Go, Xiaobao, it's time to test your abilities.”
The husky wagged its tail and ran straight to the middle road, barking twice.
“See? We have to take the middle path!”
Xiaobai bent down and picked up his husky, looking nonchalant.
Lin Yaoyao originally thought that Xiaobai had some amazing method, but when she saw that it was such a crude method, she was speechless with anger.
Mu Qianqian stepped forward and said: “Senior Sister, we don't have a better way at the moment, and I also think we should take the middle path.”
“There is no vegetation on either side of the road, but there are still some roots on the middle road, so perhaps there is no danger going this way.”
Seeing everyone looking at her and thinking that Mu Qianqian's words made some sense, Lin Yaoyao said.
“Then let's go according to what Xiaobai said.”
Everyone nodded, and just as they were about to step onto the middle road.
Ye Wuxin stepped forward and said: “Senior Sister, I want to take the left road. To train.”
After speaking, he didn't wait for Ye Yaoyao to agree and stepped onto the left road.
Seeing Ye Wuxin like this, Ji Changsheng and Wang Xuan took the initiative to stand with Ye Wuxin, saying: “Senior Brother, since you want to take the left road, we will go with you.”
Seeing this, Mu Qianqian also stepped forward and said: “Since the two Junior Brothers want to take the left road, and no one is taking the right road, I will try the right road.”
Seeing Mu Qianqian standing alone on the right road, Ye Xiaoyao also stepped forward and said: “Junior Sister, Senior Brother will be with you, to have someone to look after each other.”
Seeing that everyone had made a choice, Xiao Qing was about to speak when she heard Lin Yaoyao say.
“Alright, that's good too. Everyone can take care of each other. Xiaobai and Xiaoqing, you guys stay with me.”
“Everyone be careful along the way, and be sure to return to the main hall behind us before dark. It's very dangerous here at night.”
Everyone knew that Lin Yaoyao wasn't joking, so they put away their previous playful intentions and solemnly replied: “Understood.”
Seeing that the sun was going down again, everyone was in a hurry and set off separately.
Lin Yaoyao, Xiaobai, and Xiaoqing, who were walking in the middle, had a smooth journey and didn't encounter any major dangers, nor did they find any treasures.
However, the scenery along the way was excellent, completely different from the previous dullness.
Seeing that the sky was gradually darkening, the three of them remembered the horror of the night in the ancient ruins, so they returned the way they came.
Ji Changsheng, Wang Xuan, and Ye Wuxin, who were walking on the left road, were not so lucky. They realized something was wrong less than a kilometer into the road.
Just as they dodged, they saw a giant python with a body of emerald green hanging upside down from a tree. Its scarlet tongue spat out three zhang long, and it rolled towards the three of them on the ground.
Where had the three of them seen such a battle, so they immediately dodged.
But the giant python was unrelenting. Seeing that the three of them dared to dodge, it swung its huge body and chased after them nimbly.
Seeing this, Wang Xuan quickly said: “Senior Brother, this is a king-level ten-thousand-year snake demon. It already has intelligence. We can only outsmart it, not attack it head-on!”
Ji Changsheng and Ye Wuxin understood and exchanged glances.
The two of them almost simultaneously saw the killing intent in each other's eyes.
“Kill, it's either you die or I live!”
As a king-level giant python, it didn't take these stupid humans seriously.
Seeing that these people were still discussing how to attack it, it was furious.
