Chapter 683: Die, or Die Heroically

When they heard Rong Yu's voice, Lin Wangshu and Hua Xiaolan reacted differently.

A hint of murderous intent flashed across Hua Xiaolan's eyes, but she quickly hid it - she was familiar with Fu Qingzhou's style of doing things, so she naturally knew that Rong Yu was under some kind of threat and had to become a "helper".

Lin Wangshu raised his eyebrows slightly, then smiled calmly: "Master Fu is very generous."

"I have a bad temper."

Fu Qingzhou grinned: "If it wasn't for that snake junior sister, how could he agree to help us?"

He had already made arrangements before leaving the camp. As long as his group could not return, the big green snake would become a nutritious food for the Miao army.

Although this move is somewhat unreasonable, it is also the best threat to Rong Yu.

Rong Yu, who was at the other end of the cave, had obviously heard their conversation, and he sighed, "Master Fu, I know you won't let me go, as long as you let Junior Sister go... Now, what do you need me to do?"

"Think of a way." Fu Qingzhou said, "Get rid of this guy blocking the door."

The footsteps were getting closer, and Rong Yu's figure soon appeared on the other side of the cave.

As someone who also cultivates the Sky-Devouring Demon Body, he, like Elder Ma, is close to demons.

Therefore, Fu Qingzhou asked him to go deep into the tiankeng alone and wait for his group to arrive - of course, no one knew at that time that there was a slime blocking the door.

Not only that, Fu Qingzhou was not sure whether Rong Yu could reach the bottom of the tiankeng at that time... But he might as well give it a try. If this guy really died on the way, it would just be his bad luck.

But now it seems that this guy is lucky and I am lucky too.

Since Rong Yu was able to get down to the bottom of the tiankeng, it means... he at least figured out the situation in the tiankeng.

"...Yes, I'll try."

Rong Yu, who received Fu Qingzhou's order, responded with a buzzing sound.

He walked out of the cave, and his embarrassed appearance startled Hua Xiaolan and Lin Wangshu.

His face and body were covered in bloodstained bandages, one of his feet was clearly limping, and his body was crooked, as if he had been severely beaten.

Hua and Lin both turned their gazes towards Fu Qingzhou at the same time.

Fu Qingzhou, the instigator, didn't care at all and said in a deep voice, "Hold on tight."

"Yes."

When he saw people, Rong Yu grinned almost instinctively, and then made a few gestures towards the slime guarding the cave entrance.

Amid the fluctuations of the spiritual energy, the huge evil slime made a buzzing sound. There was obviously a strange sense of doubt in the buzzing sound, but after hesitating for a moment, it slowly moved to the side.

"Master Fu, please come in quickly."

Rong Yu was already gritting his teeth, with cold sweat oozing from his forehead: "It's very strong, I... can't control it... for too long..."

Fu Qingzhou and the others didn't say anything more and quickly passed through the cave entrance. Then Rong Yu seemed to be exhausted, sweating all over, and almost collapsed. Lin Wangshu was quick and grabbed him when he entered the cave.

After the four of them ran a few steps along the cave entrance, the evil slime was finally completely eliminated. However, it did not chase them, but just stood there stupidly, like a hunter who had lost its target.

"Cough... cough... stop..."

Several people were running deeper into the cave entrance when Rong Yu suddenly said in a hoarse voice: "There are... so many monsters..."

Several people suddenly stopped.

"Are you done?"

Fu Qingzhou frowned and looked at him: "Just controlling a demon?"

"Ahem... it's too strong." After being released by Lin Wangshu, Rong Yu fell to the side, leaning against the wall, holding his stomach and saying in pain: "I... almost lost control of the bad blood insect, and was... attacked by it."

"He didn't lie."

Lin Wangshu whispered: "I can feel something abnormal in his body - and the monster just now was the most powerful one I have ever faced." Fu Qingzhou pondered.

It is true... A monster that cannot be killed even by a Cave Heaven Realm expert is indeed ridiculously powerful.

"So, there are a lot of monsters ahead, and you are useless now?" Hua Xiaolan crossed her arms and looked at Rong Yu coldly: "Then why don't I kill you now?"

"Cough cough..."

Rong Yu coughed a few times and grinned, "Flower..."

"Don't call me that. It's dirtying my name." Hua Xiaolan interrupted him coldly: "Tell me, what use are you to?"

"Let me ask."

Fu Qingzhou stood up leisurely, smiled and said, "Rong Yu, have you found any place similar to the birthplace of evil spirits during your journey into the tiankeng?"

"Well……"

Rong Yu held his stomach and gasped for breath. He recalled for a while before slowly saying, "There are two things wrong."

After that, he paused for a while, and then he elaborated: "After leaving the cave and reaching the bottom of the cenote, there is a large open space with a radius of a thousand feet. The Yinquan water there is like a small lake. Its source... is on the cliff on the left side of the open space. There is a small waterfall. All the Yinquan water flows out from there."

"Also, there are a large number of demons gathered on that cliff. I can also feel that the demons there are extremely powerful - almost the most powerful group in the tiankeng."

"I suspect that this is either the place where they were born, or there is something there that can make them stronger, so they want to guard it."

After hearing this, Fu Qingzhou groaned for a moment: "The place guarded by the strongest may indeed be their source... What about the other one?"

"another……"

Rong Yu swallowed his saliva and said with difficulty: "At the bottom of the lake."

"Bottom of the lake?" Fu Qingzhou narrowed his eyes.

"There seems to be a deeper pit in the middle of the riverbed at the bottom of the tiankeng. The pit is not big, but very, very deep."

Rong Yu said slowly: "The color of the water there is not right. I just approached it before, and I felt a strong palpitation... and there are also a lot of demons surrounding that place, so I didn't dare to go close to explore."

Fu Qingzhou, Hua Xiaolan and Lin Wangshu looked at each other.

"How to say?"

Hua Xiaolan smiled and said, "Divide the troops into two groups?"

"This is the best way." Lin Wangshu smiled and said, "I don't know how deep the pit at the bottom of the lake is, so I will go and explore it."

"Do not."

Rong Yu suddenly said, "Let... me go."

Fu Qingzhou looked at him with some surprise.

"...I have the Sky Devouring Demon Body, so I am not afraid of the corpse poison in the Yinquan water, and the black bone fish will not attack me." Rong Yu grinned: "That little bit of water can't drown me, and..."

The smile on his face was very ugly, but it was unusual for him to be honest: "You all won't let me go anyway, I will definitely die, so I might as well die heroically."

Hua Xiaolan glanced at him coldly and sneered, "Don't think that the mountain will put up a sign for you."

“…I don’t dare to ask for it.”

Rong Yu lowered his head: "It's good that someone knows."

A person who has low self-esteem and is despicable, but seeks a heroic death?
Fu Qingzhou gave him a deep look and said, "Since this is your own request, I will satisfy you. What you need to do is to investigate what is in the depths and act accordingly. If you determine that the things inside can have a huge impact on the evil spirits or attract the evil spirits outside the tiankeng, then do it."

"If you judge that the contents are of no value, then come to us with the information..."

Rong Yu listened, coughed a few times, nodded slowly, and then smiled bitterly: "Before that, can you treat me first?"
