Free Web NovelChapter 1215: Chapter 1215: Passage of Life and Death
"Cough, cough, cough..."
Chen Tianlong coughed a few times, scrambled out of the pit, walked to Wu Mengting’s side and helped her up.
"Qiukui, you okay?"
Chen Tianlong was a little worried. He didn’t know why, but this woman always gave him a kind of "I want to protect her" feeling. It was exactly the same as when he was with Lin Wushuang, which made him a bit confused.
"Cough, cough, cough..."
Wu Mengting also coughed twice, then got up and said, "Chen Tianlong, I’m fine, just landed on my butt and it hurts a little."
Seeing that Wu Mengting was fine, Chen Tianlong grinned and said, "Your butt hurts, huh? How about I give it a rub?"
"You..."
Wu Mengting was a bit speechless. So this Chen Tianlong was still that lecherous. But she liked this kind of flirtiness, so the magical reply came out of her mouth, "Alright then!"
"Huh?"
Chen Tianlong thought he’d misheard. He’d only wanted to tease her a bit, but she actually agreed.
"Hehe, didn’t you say you wanted to rub it? Then go ahead and rub."
Seeing that she’d turned the tables and flirted back with Chen Tianlong, Wu Mengting was instantly overjoyed.
Anyway, her whole heart already belonged to him, so why would she care about something as trivial as having her butt rubbed? Never mind her butt, maybe even other places wouldn’t be a problem.
As soon as that thought came out, Wu Mengting’s face instantly turned bright red. She thought, "Since when did I become so shameless?!"
Women are complicated creatures. Once they fall for you, they’ll throw everything aside and give you their all, not caring about being shy or not.
If you don’t even like her body, that’s when she’ll think you don’t like her, don’t love her.
"Qiukui, uh, I’ll pass on the rubbing. You can just rub it yourself."
Black lines filled Chen Tianlong’s head, though on second thought, this Qiukui was actually pretty cute.
"Oh, fine then." Wu Mengting rubbed her butt twice, then stood up and looked around. She saw the other four sitting cross-legged, doing Qi Cultivation to heal.
Pure Yang Feifei, Lin Hao, and the two junior brothers were all experts. When they fell they’d used Powerful Qi to protect their bodies, but their swords weren’t as badass as the Dragon Slayer Sword. So while it cushioned them a bit, it didn’t help much; the cave walls were just too smooth.
So when they fell, the impact was heavier, and they’d clearly all taken injuries of varying severity. Chen Tianlong noticed this and walked over, asking, "Feifei, how are you? Are you badly hurt? Do you need me to heal you?"
Chen Tianlong’s concern instantly made Pure Yang Feifei feel moved. It was finally her turn this time, and she was secretly over the moon, but on the surface she still said coldly, "I’m fine, don’t worry about me."
Chen Tianlong could only give a wry smile, then directly turned his head and walked over to Senior Brother Lin Hao. Pure Yang Feifei had just been feeling touched, and in the blink of an eye Chen Tianlong walked away. Her anger shot straight up, and in her agitation, "pu—" she spat out a mouthful of fresh blood.
She had indeed been seriously injured just now, but this blood was stagnant blood she’d forced out through Qi Cultivation. Now, being so riled up by Chen Tianlong, she lost control of her Qi and sprayed it out.
Seeing this, Chen Tianlong was startled out of his wits. He hadn’t expected Pure Yang Feifei to be this badly injured inside. Didn’t she say she was fine just now?
But after taking a closer look, he felt that her face wasn’t pale, so he still asked worriedly, "Feifei, are you okay? I think it’s better if I check your pulse first."
Before Pure Yang Feifei could agree, Chen Tianlong had already grabbed her wrist and focused on feeling her pulse. After a short while he finally relaxed. Turned out the stagnant blood had been expelled in time; it wasn’t a big deal.
"You’re fine, just a minor injury. Rest a while and you’ll be okay." Chen Tianlong said with a casual smile.
Pure Yang Feifei only felt her cheeks heat up. It was the first time a man had touched her this intimately. All of a sudden, it felt like she was on fire, a completely new sensation rising within her.
Right after he finished speaking, Chen Tianlong noticed that Pure Yang Feifei’s expression looked off. He hurriedly asked, "Senior Sister Feifei, what’s wrong? Are you feeling uncomfortable again?"
Before Pure Yang Feifei could react, her hand was once again taken into Chen Tianlong’s.
This time, after checking her pulse, Chen Tianlong didn’t find anything wrong, which puzzled him. He then looked carefully at her face, raised his hand and flipped her eyelids a few times to examine them.
Pure Yang Feifei was startled by his actions. Even though it felt nice and she didn’t really want him to stop, she was a very proud girl, so on the surface she still said with a bit of anger, "Chen Tianlong, what are you doing? Don’t grope me all over, okay!"
"Huh? I didn’t. I saw your complexion looked off, so I was checking your body for you." Chen Tianlong explained with a bitter smile.
"Hmph, who’s ’off’? Don’t think I don’t know—you just want to take advantage of me, right?" Pure Yang Feifei glared straight at Chen Tianlong.
More black lines filled Chen Tianlong’s head. He could even get misunderstood like this? He simply ignored her and went over to Senior Brother Lin Hao, asking, "Senior Brother, how are you feeling now?"
"Hey, you stinky Tianlong, I was talking to you. Why are you ignoring me?"
Seeing Chen Tianlong ignore her, Pure Yang Feifei instantly got a little angry.
"Alright, alright, Junior Sister, cut it out. We should hurry up and look for Hao Shuai; that’s what matters right now." Lin Hao couldn’t stand it anymore and had to step in. He knew this junior sister well—she’d always been combative and competitive.
At this moment, Chen Tianlong turned around and made a face at Pure Yang Feifei, making her so mad she stomped her feet. Wu Mengting seemed to have noticed something, so she walked straight over to Chen Tianlong’s side and said, "Chen Tianlong, let’s go look for Hao Shuai." freewёbnoνel.com
"Yeah, okay."
Chen Tianlong slung the Dragon Slayer Sword onto his back and started scouting ahead, and the others began to move as well.
This place looked pretty chaotic, with signs of collapse everywhere. Maybe it was because of an earthquake. Anyway, the cave roof that had originally been supported by more than a dozen pillars now had two or three broken and collapsed.
As for Hao Shuai, he was actually pretty lucky. He didn’t go through all the thrills and dangers that Chen Tianlong and the others did. With that many traps and hidden passages, Hao Shuai would probably have been dead long ago.
Hao Shuai was extremely fortunate. Back in the cave where Wu Mengting ran into the rats, he accidentally stepped on a mechanism and dropped straight down through a hidden passage, plunging into water. The current carried him all the way to the very bottom of the ruins.
Meanwhile, Chen Tianlong and his group had come via another main route, clearing one level after another. So their journey was much tougher. Now, where Chen Tianlong and the others were, they were only separated from Hao Shuai by a secret passage less than fifty meters long.
The six of them smoothly arrived at the entrance of the secret passage, but now something else gave Chen Tianlong a headache: there were two paths ahead, and there was a line of text written in front of them.
This is the Life and Death Passage. One road leads to life, the other to death.
After reading it, Chen Tianlong was speechless. Whoever built this place must have had a screw loose, always wanting to mess with people because of some inner imbalance. Setting up two paths was one thing, but they just had to not say which one was which?
"Junior Brother, there are two roads here. What should we do?" Senior Brother Lin Hao didn’t know which way to go next either. He couldn’t tell if the text was true or not, but if they picked the death road, it would obviously be extremely dangerous.
Chen Tianlong didn’t answer right away. Instead, he carefully studied the differences between the two passages. Unfortunately, after observing for a long time, aside from one side being a bit dimmer, there was no difference at all.
