Qian Gongyu and "Jiang Shi" were naturally the marginal individuals without the qualifications to get involved, and Qian Gongyu was visibly nervous, rubbing her little hands like a fly.
"Jiang Shi, we’re about to go in... Maybe you should go find Shang Xinlei... If you can’t hold on, don’t force it. I heard that so people went crazy from staying too long in the Mansu Forest Land... Or maybe we should just stay until the end, and leave as soon as they go in? Uncle Lin is on standby in the carriage, we can leave anyti!"
"Miss..."
"I won’t say anymore, I won’t say anymore."
At this mont, Luo Weijin walked over, with his family’s elderly guard following closely behind, his weathered yet sharp eyes fixed intently on "Jiang Shi."
"I’ve prepared a sharkskin whip, one lash can flip the flesh over, very satisfying, very impressive," Luo Weijin said sinisterly. "You better pray you can last a bit longer inside."
"It’s you who should be praying."
"Huh?"
"If I’m forced to leave the Mansu Forest Land early, the first thing I’ll do is kill you. I won’t suffer humiliation, only death."
"Hahaha, just you—"
As "Jiang Shi" pushed out the White Iron Straight Saber an inch with his left thumb, the elderly guard behind Luo Weijin imdiately pulled him behind, gripping his sword handle seriously. Luo Weijin chuckled dryly a couple of tis, realizing finally as "Jiang Shi" remained expressionless, that he wasn’t joking, dropped a "lunatic" and fled hastily.
This made Qian Gongyu nervous again.
"You were just joking earlier, right?"
At this mont, the rally call echoed, gathering everyone at the entrance of the Mansu Forest Land. It was said to be an entrance, but in reality, it was just a mist-covered forest with no real entrance; stepping into the mist would allow entry into the Secret Realm of Mansu Forest Land.
The officials responsible for security said so encouraging remarks and allowed them to enter the forest within a quarter of an hour. According to the Liang Kingdom’s test, as long as the participants entered one after another within that ti, they could possibly form different teams to resist the illusions, exceeding the ti might result in being "left out."
Although all intelligence indicated that team formation was random, nurous people followed Shang Xinlei and Jie Yuan Shao closely after their entry—what better way to close the distance than experiencing adventure together? If they could form a team with these two prestigious aristocrats in Mansu Forest Land, marrying them wouldn’t even be a tough choice!
The two exceptions were the Luo Family and Qian Family, with Luo Weijin seemingly worried they’d take the opportunity to slip away, specifically staying back until the end. Qian Gongyu bit her silver tooth, pulling "Jiang Shi" into the misty forest.
But such strategies couldn’t counter the dungeon’s chanics. As they stepped into the forest, the mist separated Qian Gongyu’s hand from "Jiang Shi" like rushing water. "Jiang Shi" kept walking in the mist, and after about five minutes, the mist slowly dissipated.
Appearing on the screen was a clearing in the forest. A very rudintary small wooden house sat in the clearing, rickety and leaking from all sides, as if it would topple with a gust of wind.
"Jiang Shi! Hurry up!"
From the wooden house, Qian Gongyu poked her head out, waving wildly, her face unable to hide a sly grin. Yan Qing initially thought the dungeon illusion had begun, but upon entering the wooden house, understood why Qian Gongyu was so greedy—besides "Jiang Shi" and Qian Gongyu, the other two teammates were acquaintances.
Shang Xinlei and Jie Yuan Shao!
The two most prestigious networks in the entire camp were both in this team!
No wonder Qian Gongyu was drooling; she’d probably even gladly face whippings on behalf of "Jiang Shi" now.
"It’s you," Jie Yuan Shao was already in the zone, sitting cross-legged on the ground, speaking calmly. "Let’s make an effort together then."
"Jiang Shi, feel free to find anyti," Shang Xinlei giggled.
Qian Gongyu moved next to "Jiang Shi", whispered in his ear, "This might be our only chance in this life, as long as we beco friends with them, the Qian Family will have nothing to worry about. Help later, let make a good impression, let them see the finesse of the Patriarch of the Qian Family...hey, hey, Jiang Shi, give so response."
In other’s eyes, "Jiang Shi" seed to be in a daze, standing motionless at the doorway, his gaze unfocused, staring into the void.
In the Thief’s House, Yan Qing had no mind to consider the trio’s thoughts, entirely focused on studying the new information appearing on the screen.
