Chapter 576 Remember this, and don't let it happen again! (2nd update)
Yunran, enjoying a peaceful and prosperous life, was completely unaware that several other groups of people who had been with them in the Death Mountain were still trapped inside and unable to get out.
When Arthur and his party left, they carried quite a lot of things, which slowed their journey considerably.
Seeing several more of his men fall to the ground without warning, his eyes turned more grim than ever before.
The climate in this Death Mountain is terrible; it started raining without warning as we were walking.
The raindrops and the surrounding fog turned out to be toxic, and even though they were wearing professional protective masks, they were still affected to some extent.
Looking at the origami cranes that were still diligently leading the way for them, Arthur couldn't help but feel glad that he had been wary of Yunran before, so he had adopted a friendly attitude from the beginning.
The origami cranes led them away from the insect valley, away from the swamp, and away from the river infested with piranhas...
If it weren't for these origami cranes guiding them, they would probably have been completely wiped out by now.
"Captain, I've asked the brothers, and those who collapsed all feel weak and sore all over. I suspect there might be something wrong with the stuff we brought out!"
Arthur had already begun to have doubts when he heard what his men said, but they couldn't just quit.
"Tell everyone to hang in there. We'll get back and do a thorough check-up to see if they accidentally inhaled the toxic fumes while eating, or if they were affected by those substances..."
Arthur had one more thing he didn't say: if what they took out was really as he suspected, then he would definitely not let it go so easily.
They are indeed risking their lives for money, but what if the employer did not disclose the risks in the first place?
Concealing these things directly means they carry strong radiation or other deadly factors.
Even if they are members of the Jiang family, he will kill them without hesitation. No one can be used as a scapegoat without paying the price!
His subordinates sensed the murderous intent in Arthur's tone and immediately felt reassured.
"Don't worry, Captain, I'll have them wear another layer of protective clothing."
As he spoke, his subordinate glanced again at the origami cranes circling in the air as they rested.
"Captain, do you think that Miss Yun might know something, which is why she only sent us away with a paper crane?"
At this moment, he had no doubt about the ability of the origami crane to lead the way. It is said that one can see the big picture from small things, and this little origami crane had such an ability.
The owner of those origami cranes, that Miss Yun, is probably unfathomable.
"So what if she knows? We have no connection with her whatsoever. The fact that she's willing to let the little paper doll guide us already puts her ahead of most people."
If it were you, and someone you had absolutely no connection with asked you to stand up for them, or even take risks for them, would you be willing?
His subordinate was speechless. He knew very well that his answer was no.
These people who live on the edge value a clean transaction; no matter how pitiful someone may be, as long as there is no financial relationship between them, it's acceptable.
Even if that person were stabbed to death right in front of him, he wouldn't even glance at him.
"From now on, everyone must keep quiet about anything concerning Miss Yun outside of this place!"
Arthur had a vague feeling that they would have some interaction with Miss Yun in the future, but he subconsciously didn't want anyone to know about it.
Arthur, who constantly teeters on the edge of danger, has great faith in his sixth sense.
"Don't worry, Captain, the brothers are the most discreet."
They had all undergone rigorous training; those who couldn't keep their mouths shut were long gone. Meanwhile, Wan Qiyu led his people, traversing back and forth through the Death Mountain.
"Young Master, that young lady may have already left. Without the blood worms to guide us, we won't be able to find her at all."
More importantly, the supplies they brought were really insufficient. When they came, they planned to make a quick victory and only brought enough supplies for a few days.
Suddenly, Wan Qiyu swung the God-Slaying Sword in his hand at a tree not far away, splitting the three or four-meter-tall tree in two.
Then, streams of bright red liquid, resembling human blood, flowed out, which looked rather eerie.
Wan Qiyu sheathed the God-Slaying Sword, and only then did his men see several seemingly withered vines disguised on the ground not far away.
"This tree actually eats people? And it can even disguise itself!"
The tribesmen couldn't help but gasp, feeling even more strongly that it was time for them to leave.
The creatures of this Death Mountain had been quiet for a while, but now it seems they're about to cause trouble again.
"Young Master, we must leave here as soon as possible!"
The person who said this actually harbored some resentment towards Yunran.
When she left, even if she didn't take them with her, she should at least have said goodbye to them.
She left so quietly, causing them so much worry, fearing that something might happen to her in this deadly mountain.
The Wanqi family has a cooperative relationship with Mr. Shen. To express their gratitude for Mr. Shen's kindness to their eldest son, they feel it is only right to give as much as possible.
But if the other party is wary of them at every turn, then their efforts seem somewhat laughable.
Wan Qiyu naturally detected a hint of dissatisfaction in his clansmen's words.
His eyes suddenly turned cold: "If I ever hear you disrespect my sworn sister again, you can go back to the Wanqi family yourself!"
In Wan Qiyu's heart, Shen Jun was his biological father, and Yun Ran, who had never enjoyed fatherly love, was naturally his biological sister.
He felt he owed his sister a great deal, and even though she was a clansman who was loyal to him, she should not be disrespectful to Yunran!
The clansman was startled by Wan Qiyu's words and immediately knelt on one knee: "Young Master, this subordinate will never dare to do it again, please do not send this subordinate away!"
Wan Qiyu withdrew his gaze, and after a long while, when the backs of the clansmen were soaked with cold sweat.
He then spoke calmly, "Get up. Remember, this is the last time!"
The other clansmen, understanding the warning in these words, quickly bowed and said, "Yes, your subordinates will remember."
Wan Qiyu took out the blood sphere again. The little bugs inside were completely dead, and even the blood sphere itself had begun to darken considerably.
The blood cells turned dark, indicating that Yunran was very far away from them.
Previously, Yun Ran clearly suspected his and Master Ming's identities, but she did not take advantage of their vulnerability to deal with both groups of people as soon as possible.
This is enough to show that Yun Ran not only has extraordinary abilities, but is also an upright and honest person.
He did not reveal his identity to Yun Ran, so it was understandable that Yun Ran was wary of him.
Wan Qiyu sighed softly, "Let's go!"
