Chapter 133 White Immortal Generally speaking, whenever Lu A'yao came in, He Yu and I would have to head out. Regardless of whether he was sleeping or simply didn't care about what we were discussing, his presence was a major hindrance to our ability to talk freely. So, when He Yu had been out of the room for ten minutes without returning, I began to climb down from my bunk. Once my feet hit the floor, I saw Lu A'yao lying on the bottom bunk with his eyes closed, so I tiptoed out as quietly as…-

Chapter 132: The Return Trip I didn't expect him to ask that suddenly. My mind went blank, and I stared at the computer screen for a long time before coming to my senses. I scratched my head, not knowing where to begin, and tried to brush it off. This tactic worked well on my Fourth Brother, but it was useless with He Yu. He was incredibly sensitive to certain social cues, so he quickly poked me with his finger. "What's the matter? You've already said so much. We're close enough now, what's there to…

Chapter 131: Selling the Bracelet "Why?" My face paled at his words, and I nearly dropped my chopsticks. I quickly explained to him, "Look, when I said you were my bodyguard before, I was just talking nonsense. Please don't take it to heart. I don't know what special rules your Lu family has, but I truly consider you a friend. We don't need to follow that whole copper coin gratitude thing. When my grandfather sent your family rice back then, it was just a bit of relief aid. You should go do whatever…

Chapter 130: The Next Step We messed around for a while until we were too tired to move, then each of us went to shower to wash off the exhaustion of the past few days. Three people in one bed was far too crowded. To prevent He Yu from hogging all the blankets once he fell asleep, I asked the staff for two extra sets. While He Yu was showering, Lu A'yao leaned against the headboard, fiddling with his rarely seen mobile phone. I wrapped myself in my own blanket and lay on the bed. I hadn't felt…

Chapter 129: Poverty Comes First The spot where we entered the river was close to the riverbed. It was the middle of the night, and everything in sight was pitch black. This particular stretch of the river had a massive curve and a steep incline, causing the turbulent water to sweep He Yu and me apart. In water like that, there is nothing a person can do. The only option is to protect your internal organs from being punctured by the rocks. I drew the knife from my waist and let the current carry me…

Chapter 128 Entering the River "But we don't have time! It's crawling with Stone Horseshoe Crab Insects out there. Who knows where that tiny Qi Vent is in a place this big? Besides, this entire Underground Palace has undergone a massive shift in position. There's no telling if the Qi Vent has been blocked!" Han Jian spoke faster and faster, clearly gripped by panic. I listened from the side, just about to speak, when the entire Buddhist Pagoda suddenly began to shake violently. Several workers…

Chapter 127: The Qi Vent I hit the water at a terrifying speed. My head nearly grazed the edge of the stone bridge as I went in, followed immediately by my ankles. This was completely unexpected. As soon as the water submerged me, it began flooding into my windpipe. I choked, thrashing around for a bit before my strength began to fail. My blood dispersed into the water. Perhaps sensing the scent of gore, I saw an eight-legged Infant Corpse at the bottom suddenly snap open its pupil-less eyes and…

Chapter 126: Getting on the Bridge Seeing the three of us standing there like statues, Han Jian quickly circled around from behind. I felt that regardless of whether the plan was feasible, we had to inform Han Jian. We needed proper communication to adjust our strategy. Lu A'yao clearly shared my thoughts, so as soon as Han Jian arrived, he candidly explained everything we had come up with so far. This platform was quite large. While they were talking, I moved a few steps to the side, finding the…
