"Let’s go up and have a look first."
Qian Yizheng didn’t worry about climbing in vain; he wanted to see what might be hidden in such a concealed place.
"Alright."
Qian Yizheng was the first to step onto the stairs.
He also wanted to see what could make him feel so dangerous. But after just one step, he turned his head back.
"Should we call Nuonuo and the others up here?"
He always had a voice telling him that if they split up, one side might be in danger. He thought since they had found the stairs, they might as well call Nuonuo and the others to co up and see together.
Upon hearing this, Qian Yizheng’s eyes flashed.
"Alright, let’s go down first."
The two of them spoke, and then they walked down.
Because they didn’t have to climb and were walking downward, the oppressive feeling got weaker; they walked smoothly and soon reached the end of the stairs.
"Wow, there are feet!"
Little Nuonuo had been staring at the stairs and suddenly saw a pair of eyes, shouting in surprise.
"Where, where... oh, aren’t these Big Brother’s shoes."
An Yilu turned his head and saw familiar shoes; there was no need to ask—it was Qian Yizheng’s.
"Big Brother, Second Brother, did you co down? What’s up there?"
While asking, he saw Qian Yizheng and Qian Yizheng jump down the stairs, standing steadily in front of them.
"We haven’t gone up yet, we ca down to get you first."
Qian Yizheng wanted to lift his hand to rub the little baby’s head, but thinking of the dust left from climbing on his hand, he withdrew his hand.
"Shall we go up together?"
Everyone perked up upon hearing this.
They wanted to go up just now, but with Big Brother and Second Brother absent, they didn’t dare act rashly, so they stayed put.
"Big Brother, Second Brother, you’re really nice, heh heh." Little Nuonuo complinted the two brothers unreservedly.
"Since we’ve found the way, it doesn’t matter to wait a little longer; shall we eat before going up?" Min Yi suggested.
They had been at the Saintess Sect for a while now, and the sky was about to turn dark. It’d be better to eat first before doing anything else, and with the luminous pearl, what was there to fear about climbing in the dark?
"Sure." Qian Yizheng nodded.
Not long after, everyone sat down, preparing to eat a al before setting out.
...
Outside a city not too far from Yin City, Qing Qiushi and people from various major clans were resting by a woods because it was dark, eating only dry rations.
"The night after tomorrow, we’ll be able to reach Yin City."
Several Family Heads gathered around, one of them bit into so dry rations and said.
"At our current speed, we’ll definitely reach it the night after tomorrow." Another Family Head agreed.
Initially, they expected to reach Yin City by tomorrow, but sothing happened along the way; those ordinary people who had lost their cultivation levels suddenly regained them.
Regaining cultivation levels was fine, nothing special about it, but so reckless ones insisted on stirring up trouble.
Relying on their regained energy, they wanted to negotiate conditions with the major clans—borrowing money from them to buy supplies. They had to know, even they themselves were eating dry rations to hurry back.
All just to return to Yin City sooner and deal with the remnants of the Saintess Sect.
Among them, no one believed that the Saintess Sect disciples they wiped out in the desert were all there was; certainly, so remnants were left.
