Volume 4: Azure Dragon Changes the World Chapter 203: Survive a desperate situation, there is another master
Mr. Zhu Si died, and so did Gongzi Yu and Mingyuexin.
There seems to be no winner in this battle.
But the expressions of Li Muchan, Ye Kai and others were all grim, and their eyes were more solemn than ever before.
Because of the loud noise, the dome of the underground palace collapsed, leaving several huge holes. Several turbid waves and rapids fell from the sky like waterfalls, causing a loud rumbling sound that made everyone swallow hard.
Too cruel.
Not only the underground river, Gongzi Yu also changed the river course on the ground and brought in river water.
"Oh no! Young Master Yu has saved this killer move. What should we do?" The Golden Lion and Silver Dragon were still alive, looking miserable and covered in wounds. They were completely panicked by the scene. Then they saw that Li Muchan and the others were silent and frowning, and suddenly they laughed strangely as if they were possessed by a demon. "Hahaha, we can't get out. None of us can get out. Aren't you all smarter and more powerful than each other? In the end, you will all die anyway."
Seeing that death was imminent, the two of them had no scruples anymore. They laughed madly and crazily at Li Muchan, Shangguan Xiaoxian and the others, and their words were full of ridicule and mockery.
Once the underground palace is filled up, no matter how skilled they are, even people like Li Xunhuan and Shen Lang will be doomed to die if they are trapped here.
Li Muchan remained unmoved and said softly, "Young Master Yu must have left a way out."
"A way out? Haha, where is the way out?" Golden Lion sneered, "This final trap is clearly designed for mutual destruction. Otherwise, why would they wait until death to trigger it?"
Li Muchan's eyelids trembled, but even though he was in a dangerous situation where the world was collapsing, there was no panic on his face.
There must be a way out.
Although Gongzi Yu planned his plan with the intention of dying, he was ambitious and wanted to rule the world. He would certainly consider how to escape after winning. Besides, Mingyuexin was also in the game, so he would definitely leave a glimmer of hope.
He just tried to rescue Mingyuexin in order to save his life, but he didn't expect Mingyuexin to be so determined to live and die, and to die with Gongzi Yu.
"Actually, having this extra mechanism isn't a bad thing." Li Muchan said calmly.
"What? Not a bad thing? Could it be a good thing?" Silver Dragon's eyes widened, and then he laughed in self-abandonment, "I think you are really crazy."
Ye Kai smiled bitterly and said, "The Qinglong Society has many people and is very powerful. We may not win if we really fight hard, but now that the trap has been activated, they will only be more panicked than us."
Guo Ding suddenly said in a deep voice: "The people from the Qinglong Society have retreated."
When everyone heard what was said, they looked up and saw that the disciples of the Qinglong Society were leaving the hall one after another.
Not only did these people retreat, they also blocked the exit of the corridor with hidden weapons.
"Oh no," Ding Linglin suddenly realized and exclaimed, "They want to trap us inside."
After all, there is more space outside and more time to breathe, but on their side, it is a dead end.
The people from the Qinglong Society moved quickly and soon surrounded the hall.
"Fight your way out?" Guo Ding glanced around at everyone and gritted his teeth, "I'd rather die by someone else's sword than drown."
As soon as he said that, he really drew his sword and was ready to rush out to kill.
Ye Kai hurriedly advised: "No."
"Isn't it urgent? If we wait any longer, we'll just be slaughtered and die with our eyes closed."
"There must be a way out."
"Where is the way out?"
…
Just as a group of people were arguing due to disagreements, bursts of explosions were heard outside the palace.
"What's that sound?"
"They're members of the Azure Dragon Society. They're carrying gunpowder. It seems they've been prepared. They're probably trying to break the rocks and clear a path out."
"Hurry up and make a decision. The water is coming up."
…
Everyone was talking at once.
Unexpectedly, Li Muchan said in a deep voice at this moment: "Retreat!"
After he said that, he turned around and walked quickly towards the hall in the depths.
Ye Kai also said in a serious tone: "Retreat quickly!"
Although the others didn't understand what was going on, the situation was pressing and they didn't care too much. They followed the two of them to the hall in the deepest part.
The lights in the pavilion were still on, and corpses in various states of death were lying on the ground.
Ding Linglin couldn't help but yell, "Oh my, what are you two keeping us in suspense for? It's already late, why don't you tell us what you've discovered so we can all escape together."
Li Muchan didn't say anything, but just narrowed his eyes and looked at the coffins in the hall.
Ye Kai said softly, "One must face death first in order to survive. Since flooding the underground palace is the ultimate killer move, then Gongzi Yu's plan must have been prepared for when he was in dire straits. This is the only place in the entire underground palace that is hopeless."
He also looked at the coffins and sighed, "It's both a dead end and a way to survive."
Gongzi Yu was a tyrant, not a good man, but it is undeniable that he ended his life as a hero.
If this person had used this last mechanism at the beginning, both the members of the Qinglong Society and these people would have suffered heavy losses, if not been completely wiped out.
The reason why Gongzi Yu did not trigger the mechanism in advance was certainly because he wanted to use himself as bait to lure out Mr. Zhu Si, but more likely he wanted to prove himself.
As two invincible figures, how could they be afraid without fighting? He wanted to prove his invincibility and even more so, his pride, and meet this greatest enemy. However, all his efforts were in vain. After so many years of planning, he ended up perishing together and going to the underworld. It was really sad.
But this is not a defeat, let alone a loss.
If this man had a little bit of villainy or meanness, he could have withdrawn at any time and bury everyone in a killing game, but he chose to enter the game with his strength. This alone is enough to make him better than 99% of the people in the world.
The same is true for Mr. Zhu Si.
A man who has been lonely and invincible for nearly sixty years, one day suddenly found that there was a newcomer who could compete with him. Apart from fear, the most he felt was probably joy, especially since this person had a connection with the Shen family. He had no choice but to meet him in person, whether he was alive or dead.
Now, the invincible man of the past and the invincible man of the present have both perished. However, people do not feel much joy, but more of a sense of regret.
Li Muchan walked in front and came to a coffin. He waved his sleeves and opened the coffin. There was nothing inside.
He knocked on the bottom of the coffin again, and only stood up when he found that it was solid.
As soon as he looked up, he saw everyone staring at him. Li Muchan rolled his eyes and said, "Why are you looking at me? Hurry and find it."
Everyone then dispersed to check the remaining coffins and many hidden places.
Not long after, Ding Linglin, who was not far away, suddenly showed a look of surprise and said hurriedly: "Ah, a way out, I found a way out."
Everyone rushed over following the sound and saw a coffin in front of her. The bottom of the coffin had been knocked open, revealing a bottomless dark passage with stone steps visible underneath.
"Haha, there really is a way out."
Having escaped from a desperate situation, everyone's face showed joy and a sense of relief.
"Everyone go down first."
Guo Ding picked up a torch from the wall and walked down first.
The others followed closely and entered one after another.
Li Muchan was also among them. He was walking at the back and glanced around. Seeing Yan Shisan and Li Pharmacist were there, he immediately breathed a sigh of relief.
But after taking a few steps, for some reason, Li Muchan suddenly became uneasy, as if because he didn't see a certain figure.
He looked back for some unknown reason, because Shangguan Xiaoxian was behind him.
This person has not said a word from the beginning until now. His expression is a little gloomy, a little cold, and even lonely. He bites his red lips tightly and his face is frighteningly pale.
But the moment Li Muchan looked at Shangguan Xiaoxian, his eyes suddenly widened with surprise, astonishment, and a strong murderous intent.
Shangguan Xiaoxian was the last one to fall behind. She was the first to notice the change in Li Muchan's expression. A moment of daze flashed across her eyes, and then her face turned cold. She turned around and slapped him.
Behind her, at the entrance of the secret passage, a middle-aged man dressed as a member of the Qinglong Society stood up silently, his eyes full of coldness, and pushed his palms horizontally, landing hard on Shangguan Xiaoxian's back.
There are actually masters among these corpses.
Not only the masters, but soon after everyone entered the secret passage, the remaining coffins in the hall all made strange noises, followed by the sound of "hissing" burning, and it was obvious that gunpowder was buried there.
Save people or retreat quickly, it's a matter of a moment...
I feel a little unwell today, so I'm late.
Brothers, the heroine is back.
