"I see."
Su Chen heard this and finally understood.
Actually, Zhou Ying also found it strange that Su Chen could get here, but on second thought, since he was able to kill two Condensation Pill Realm people with cultivation not even at Kaiyuan Late Stage, it was normal for him to have so ans!
At this mont, Su Chen smiled, then extended a hand:
"I guess we know each other now, my na is Su Chen."
Zhou Ying saw Su Chen's extended hand and was a little surprised, then sowhat shyly extended her slender hand, and grasped Su Chen's large hand.
Su Chen didn't think much of it and released it after a light grip, saying:
"Let's continue our search and see if there's anything to find!"
"Okay."
Zhou Ying also nodded, and the two of them stood up and walked forward, observing as they went.
anwhile, they chatted casually, not minding whatever they talked about.
"This place is strange, kid!"
Just then, a voice suddenly echoed in Su Chen's mind.
"Zi i! You're back!"
Su Chen was imdiately delighted upon hearing the voice and blurted out.
"What did you say?"
Zhou Ying almost got startled by Su Chen's sudden exclamation and curiously asked.
"Oh, it's nothing, just lost in thought a bit deeply."
Su Chen grinned awkwardly, and naturally, he wouldn't ntion Zi i's existence to anyone!
Not to this girl he just t, and not even to the won back in the manor.
Firstly, nobody would believe it if he said it, instead, they would think he's crazy; Secondly, Zi i had instructed not to let anyone know of her existence!
Since Zi i said so, he obviously wouldn't tell others, after all, he found Zi i quite endearing, as if there was so mysterious connection between them!
However, one thing that had been bothering him was that ever since Zi i taught him the "Wind Shadow Step", she seed to have gone silent!
Su Chen had called for her several tis, but there was no response!
Unexpectedly, Zi i suddenly spoke up again at this ti!
"What do you an by back?"
At this mont, Zi i sounded displeased as she retorted:
"Do you think I'm dead?"
"Sorry, sorry!"
Even though Su Chen found Zi i endearing, he didn't dare to offend her and quickly joked in his mind:
"I an you're finally awake!"
Su Chen could communicate with Zi i in his mind without uttering a word and without any hindrance!
"Hmm."
Hearing Su Chen's words, Zi i's tone slightly improved and she let out a soft "hmm".
"By the way, Zi i, why were you asleep for so long before?"
Su Chen curiously inquired ntally.
"Alright, let's not talk about that now, this place is sowhat special!"
Zi i pondered and said.
Actually, her Divine Soul is very weak right now, and it wasn't until here that she sensed sothing, suddenly awakening from her slumber!
Of course, her Divine Soul ntal Power, even severely weakened, is incomparable to her peak, but it's still beyond what Su Chen currently can match!
Especially since Su Chen hasn't cultivated any Consciousness Sea ntal Power yet!
"What's so strange?"
Su Chen realized it was unusual for there to be a water tunnel beneath this underground palace pool, but he didn't sense anything particularly odd!
Still, he trusted Zi i greatly; she wouldn't say such things without reason.
"I can't say for sure, just follow my guidance for now."
Zi i's voice rang out again in Su Chen's mind.
"Alright."
Su Chen, of course, had no objections.
He then followed Zi i's guidance, moving through the cave, with Zhou Ying closely following behind.
"Su Chen, where are you headed to?"
Zhou Ying saw Su Chen no longer searching slowly but walking straight ahead and couldn't help but ask curiously.
"Just follow ."
Su Chen smiled and said.
"Oh."
Zhou Ying, not knowing what's going on, could only follow Su Chen closely.
In a short while, Su Chen and Zhou Ying had passed through a dozen or so interconnected caverns, arriving at the entrance of another cave.
Unlike before, the entrance was covered by a layer of azure light, like a door.
Although it was a light cluster, it was completely different from the light cluster he encountered when getting the Thousand Hand Seal, this one seed composed of so special energy!
"Zi i, what's this about?"
Su Chen looked at the azure light and asked.
"Not sure, it should be so kind of barrier or restriction."
Zi i pondered and said:
"Try going in and see."
"Could it be dangerous?"
Su Chen asked hesitantly.
Though generally brave, he's not fearless!
After all, Su Chen hadn't gotten reckless enough to think he could handle everything, especially unknowns!
Of course, usually, curiosity often surpasses any hesitation within!
"It shouldn't be. Generally, this type of situation doesn't pose danger, mostly it's restrictive!"
Zi i said, based on her experience:
"Of course, sotis forcefully breaking through restrictions can result in backlash!"
"So, try first, and if it doesn't work, retreat quickly."
With these words from Zi i, Su Chen felt much more at ease!
Even if Zi i said it was dangerous, he couldn't just stand still, let alone since Zi i said it's usually just restrictive, it encouraged him to try!
"Zhou Ying, wait here for a mont, I'll check if there's danger. If not, you can co in."
Su Chen turned and smiled at Zhou Ying.
Hearing this, Zhou Ying felt a touch of emotion rising inside!
She knew Su Chen was leaving the danger to himself and giving her a way out.
Though Su Chen didn't think much of it, it was just a natural choice for him.
If there is danger, one person is enough. Why involve two people?
Besides, he couldn't possibly have Zhou Ying, a girl, risk her life, could he?!
Such a thing, Su Chen would not do, otherwise, he wouldn't be much of a man!
In the worst case, if there is danger, it's easier for him to escape alone!
If Zhou Ying ca along, he would have to look out for her, which would complicate things!
"Be careful,"
Zhou Ying couldn't help but express so worry.
"Don't worry, it'll be okay!"
Su Chen reassured her with a confident look and smile.
"You sneaky kid, can't leave out any chance to flirt, can you!"
Just then, Zi i's teasing voice echoed in his mind.
"Am I as bad as you say?"
Su Chen responded, feeling exasperated.
"What do you think?"
Zi i replied with a mischievous tone...
(ps: More to co tonight!)
