Chapter 596: Chapter 606 Dessert
That night, Wang Yan led the group sitting inside the Peak Group, waiting for news from Shangguan Moyao.
Gradually, the moon rose higher, hanging in the sky, and the entire city quieted down. Checking the ti, it was nearly midnight.
Just as everyone was growing impatient, Sir’s phone suddenly rang.
Sir picked up the phone to see a ssage from an unknown number, containing only two words: co downstairs.
Sir imdiately grew puzzled and asked Wang Yan, “Boss, I received a really strange ssage.”
Wang Yan smiled faintly and said, “Not strange at all, Shangguan Moyao is already downstairs at the Peak Group. Let’s go et her and see what she really wants.”
Everyone stood up imdiately, and Wang Yan asked Sir, Fang, and Li to stay in the building; after all, they didn’t have Demon Patterns, and going down could be either a blessing or a curse.
Beiming Xue, Hu Wei, Ma Jun, and Qin Tian followed Wang Yan downstairs, where they indeed found Shangguan Moyao standing alone in front of the Peak Group.
At this ti, Shangguan Moyao had already changed out of her professional suit and wore sportswear instead, with her black hair casually tied behind her head, adding a different kind of charm.
Except for Wang Yan and Beiming Xue, it was the first ti the others saw Shangguan Moyao. Upon seeing her icy and captivating aura, everyone was a bit dazed, especially Hu Wei, whose mouth hung open with drool dripping out.
Seeing Hu Wei’s lustful look, Shangguan Moyao’s face showed a hint of disgust; the subtle softness in her expression upon seeing Wang Yan earlier disappeared, replaced by ice coldness.
Shangguan Moyao glanced at Wang Yan coldly and said disdainfully, “Hmph, you brought so many people. Are you afraid of a woman like ?”
At this mont, Shangguan Moyao noticed Beiming Xue beside Wang Yan and said unexpectedly, “So you’re here too.”
Beiming Xue quickly called out obediently, “Moyao Senior.”
Shangguan Moyao nodded slightly towards Beiming Xue as a reply, but then continued, “Beiming Xue is forbidden to co, the others follow .”
When Beiming Xue heard this, she hurriedly asked, “Why can’t I co?”
Wang Yan turned to Beiming Xue and said, “Go back. Tonight’s venture seems very dangerous.”
Hearing this, Shangguan Moyao couldn’t help but curiously ask, “How do you know?”
Wang Yan smiled faintly, saying, “Simple, you don’t hate won. So for us n to die it doesn’t matter, but won can’t be in danger. Besides, I can also judge that the place we’re going tonight will be extrely dangerous.”
Shangguan Moyao was visibly surprised, saying, “Truly clever, but, since you know there’s danger tonight, will you still follow ?”
Wang Yan smiled faintly and said, “If you’re not afraid of danger as a woman, why should I be?”
This sentence was precisely Wang Yan’s return of Shangguan Moyao’s words from earlier.
Shangguan Moyao was startled, then sneered coldly and said, “Alright then, let’s go.”
Wang Yan persuaded Beiming Xue to return to the Peak Group, then led Hu Wei and the others to follow Shangguan Moyao.
Shangguan Moyao turned a corner, arriving in front of a path along the Peak Group’s courtyard wall.
This path was the one that had suddenly collapsed during the battle between Wang Yan and Shi Sanquan, and Little Yan of Beiming Xue was found by Wang Yan in the deep pit below.
Now, the path seed to be under construction and repair, completely sealed off, and blocked by large construction vehicles and barricades on both sides.
Shangguan Moyao didn’t even glance at them, crossing the barricades directly to walk onto the path. Once past the barricades, everyone discovered the pathway had been completely excavated, revealing the deep pit Wang Yan had once sealed.
Seeing this, Qin Tian shouted suddenly, “These construction vehicles are all from the Shangguan Group, so it was you who deliberately excavated this path.”
Shangguan Moyao nodded faintly and said, “Yes, to tell you the truth, after soone reported to , I ordered them to halt the work. This uncovered pit is very strange, so I had to co down to take a look myself, Wang Yan, if you have the courage, co along.”
Upon hearing this, Wang Yan frowned thoughtfully.
This deep pit below, Wang Yan had been down before. But back then, he was a High-Tier Demon Master and could only walk a few miles before he couldn’t go any further.
Now, Qin Tian and Ma Jun were rely a Demon Warrior Great Perfection and Initial-Tier Demon Master respectively, likely to face danger if they went down.
Seeing Wang Yan’s hesitation, Shangguan Moyao thought Wang Yan was afraid, and sneered coldly, saying, “Wang Yan, if you’re scared, you can leave. I won’t force you.”
Wang Yan lifted his head, smiled lightly, and said, “Let’s go down. I also want to know what’s down there.”
Seeing Wang Yan’s calm deanor, Shangguan Moyao scoffed internally, “Hmph, you think it’s just an ordinary deep pit, but I can tell you that it contains great danger. Once you go down, you might be scared to wet your pants in a mont.”
Without further courtesy, Shangguan Moyao leapt forward directly, jumping into the deep pit.
Wang Yan looked at Qin Tian and Ma Jun and said, “You two be careful. If there’s danger below, return imdiately.”
With that, Wang Yan jumped down too.
Hu Wei and the other three followed quickly, plunging into the pit.
Shangguan Moyao waited at the bottom of the deep pit. Seeing Wang Yan and the others jump down, she nodded and said, “Hmph, you have so courage. Alright, I an what I say. As long as you follow , not leaving, then we can cooperate. Otherwise, even if you lose.”
Saying this, Shangguan Moyao walked straight into the depths of the pit.
Wang Yan raised his head and glanced forward, realizing this pit had clearly changed since his last visit. The chilly air seed much reduced, but Wang Yan distinctly felt that in the bottom of the pit, a current of dangerous aura surged from ti to ti.
Wang Yan turned to look at the three others beside Hu Wei and said, “Stay alert, I feel there’s an extrely terrifying presence in this pit.”
Hu Wei and the others nodded, heightened their vigilance.
Wang Yan and the others imdiately followed Shangguan Moyao into the depths of the pit.
At this mont, deep in the pit, a giant, dark silhouette slowly opened its eyes, which were as large as lanterns.
The dark figure slowly grinned, and saliva dripped from its mouth, booming with a sound, “Snack’s here, haha, snack’s here.”
With this sound, countless pairs of eyes illuminated around the dark figure, accompanied by a series of terrifying sounds that all rose together, “Snack!”
“Snack!”
