Soon, Hu Xiaobei and the others shifted their gaze from the waterfall to the mountain cave not far away...
At this mont, both Hu Xiaobei and Qi Lianlian felt a sense of pressure...
"This cave doesn't seem simple!"
Murmuring in a deep voice, Hu Xiaobei was about to do sothing when suddenly, he felt his arm tightly embraced...
Turning his head, Hu Xiaobei found that it wasn't anyone else holding him but the slightly pale-faced Qi Lianlian...
Knowing she was greatly affected, Hu Xiaobei gently smiled and said openly, "You don't have to be afraid, with here, nothing will happen to you!"
Hu Xiaobei had absolute confidence in his own strength, believing he could definitely protect her!
Qi Lianlian, who had been very nervous, gradually cald down upon hearing Hu Xiaobei's open assurance!
But still, she was sowhat anxious...
Knowing it would be hard for her to fully recover for now, Hu Xiaobei asked her and Jangonila to stay there...
Following this, Hu Xiaobei took a step forward...
Soon, under their watchful eyes, Hu Xiaobei looked towards the equally tense tiger...
"Is this where you live?"
Hu Xiaobei was genuinely curious at this ti...
He thought it was unlikely this cave was the tiger's abode, as it was too intimidating...
Its power was insufficient, unable to control this place...
The tiger, hearing Hu Xiaobei's curious inquiry, vigorously shook its fluffy head.
Then it pointed at the deep cave, vividly describing it...
If it were an ordinary person, even seeing its description, they probably wouldn't understand!
But Hu Xiaobei could...
Because previously, Hu Xiaobei had experience interacting with tigers and other animals...
Gradually, Hu Xiaobei fully understood what it was trying to express...
It turned out that the tiger had discovered this cave by chance...
It thought there might be sothing good inside, so it was willing to offer it to Hu Xiaobei as a way to express its gratitude...
"So that's how it is!"
Fully understanding its aning, Hu Xiaobei again turned to look at the absolutely deep cave...
At the sa ti, he clearly felt the overwhelming sense of oppression...
Taking a deep breath, Hu Xiaobei was ready to explore the cave, as he was incredibly curious about it...
Having thought it through, Hu Xiaobei glanced at Jangonila and Qi Lianlian, saying, "I'm planning to take a look inside. There might be danger, so you two should stay out!"
Upon hearing Hu Xiaobei's solemn admonishnt, Qi Lianlian nervously whispered, "Brother Xiaobei, maybe... maybe you shouldn't go in! Let's just leave!"
Qi Lianlian was aware there was likely unknown danger inside, so she really didn't want Hu Xiaobei to enter!
Hearing Qi Lianlian's anxious words, Jangonila also spoke up!
"Master Xiaobei, yes, perhaps you shouldn't go in!"
Knowing they genuinely cared for him, Hu Xiaobei gently waved his hand, saying, "It's fine, don't worry!"
Hu Xiaobei had ample confidence in his strength and believed he could definitely co out unscathed, even if there was danger.
...
"This..."
Hearing Hu Xiaobei's confident words, they didn't say anything more...
They knew Hu Xiaobei was not soone who would change his mind easily...
"Really, I won't be in any danger!"
With a light smile, Hu Xiaobei calmly took a step forward...
Soon, as Hu Xiaobei got closer to the cave, the eerie cold aura beca more intense...
"What the heck, is there so kind of eternal ice inside this cave that never lts?"
Murmuring to himself, Hu Xiaobei took a deep breath and continued to step cautiously, his expression slightly serious...
At this mont, Hu Xiaobei's curiosity about the cave grew even more...
Cold!
As he continued to approach, Hu Xiaobei felt an absolute chill...
After walking ten more steps, Hu Xiaobei felt as if he was about to freeze...
"This is truly a natural ice chamber!"
Admiringly, Hu Xiaobei walked past the front bend.
Outside, after Hu Xiaobei disappeared, Jangonila and Qi Lianlian were extrely nervous...
They worried that Hu Xiaobei might never co out...
Inside the cave, after turning the corner, Hu Xiaobei stared ahead in surprise because he discovered a deep ice chamber...
It wasn't very large, but was layered with ice, with an ice platform in the middle...
A frosty mist enveloped the top...
"There seems to be sothing inside!"
Murmuring softly, Hu Xiaobei walked forward curiously, soon reaching the not very narrow ice platform...
Standing still, Hu Xiaobei took a deep breath...
At the sa ti, Hu Xiaobei slowly mobilized the Nine Wood True Qi in his body...
As he did, the strands of chill gradually dissipated...
"What the heck, without Nine Wood True Qi, I'd probably have turned into an icicle by now!"
After speaking, Hu Xiaobei focused on the ice platform!
Watching the layer of fog covering the ice platform, Hu Xiaobei lightly waved his hand, causing it to disperse rapidly...
As it gradually lifted, the object on the ice platform slowly erged...
"This..."
Initially, Hu Xiaobei couldn't see clearly...
But once he could, Hu Xiaobei was truly astonished...
For on the ice platform was a woman, an absolutely perfect woman...
At present, she lay quietly dressed in golden satin, with a tinge of languid aura surrounding her...
"What's going on? How is she here? Is she asleep?"
As he stood amazed, Hu Xiaobei suddenly had a jolt in his eyelid...
This was because in that mont, Hu Xiaobei clearly felt a trace of icy murderous intent.
After confirming the murderous intent ca from her, Hu Xiaobei quickly snapped back...
In an instant, he saw her long eyelashes flutter...
"This unconscious woman seems to be waking up!"
Thinking this, Hu Xiaobei saw her open her eyes...
Just as he was about to say sothing, Hu Xiaobei suddenly saw her raise her hand swiftly...
Needles...
In the mont she raised her hand, Hu Xiaobei saw three silver needles...
Instantly, Hu Xiaobei withdrew swiftly by two steps...
As he retreated, he heard the sharp sound of breaking air and knew those three needles were piercing towards him. Quickly, Hu Xiaobei concentrated his mind and energy...
A minute later, looking at the needles grasped in his hand, Hu Xiaobei sighed in relief!
"What the heck, thankfully I broke through, or else I'd definitely die here!"
Murmuring, Hu Xiaobei looked at her and shouted, "I just happened to glance at you, no need to resort to assassination!"
Right now, Hu Xiaobei was truly frustrated...
He felt he hadn't done anything too excessive to warrant such a response...
Hearing Hu Xiaobei's frustrated words, she gave him a long look and said, "You're not sent by her?"
Hearing such a nonsensical inquiry, Hu Xiaobei was taken aback and said, "Who? Who do you think sent ?"
At this mont, Hu Xiaobei realized she had clearly mistaken him for soone else when she tried to attack...
Seeing the bewildernt in Hu Xiaobei's eyes, she muttered, "It seems you really weren't sent by her. I'm truly sorry for earlier!"
"Uh..."
Hu Xiaobei rubbed his nose...
At this mont, Hu Xiaobei was really unclear about the whole story...
Just as he was about to inquire further, he suddenly heard violent coughing. Turning to look, he saw her cheeks flush...
"Huh? She seems to be poisoned!"
Murmuring this, Hu Xiaobei suddenly saw her coughing up blood...
