"Little White, Little White!"
In a tunnel, Lu Li was yelling and shouting while running. He had been running for about an hour, crossing numerous tunnels, shouting for many times. Yet, he hadn’t been able to see Little White for once.
Little White was lost, and so was he!
He couldn’t find Bai Xiashuang and Bai Qiuxue, but he didn’t care. Right now, what he worried about the most was Little White. He was anxious to get it back.
Lu Ling was far away in the Cyan Plains. The closest friend Lu Li had was Little White. The small beast had been with him for such a long time and helped him out on so many occasions. He had a strong connection with Little White, like it was his little brother.
Lu Li had to keep on rushing and finding. Even if he were to tire himself to death, he wanted to find Little White.
…
"Lu Li is missing?"
Seeing Lu Li left in a hurry, Bai Qiuxue sent someone to go after him at once. But after some distance, that man hit a crossing. He didn’t want to be away from the team, so he came back to report.
Bai Qiuxue was already in panic. Now Lu Li was gone? But what could she do? She could only wait here for Lu Li to come back.
Six hours, 10 hours, 20 hours.
Many people were sleeping while leaning against the wall. Still, there was no signs of Lu Li. Bai Xiashuang and some others were not willing to wait any longer. They urged Bai Qiuxue to set out, otherwise, they would all die here because of the lack of food.
Bai Qiuxue had to write down a message for Lu Li on a piece of paper and then left. This time, Bai Qiuxue had someone to mark as they walked, dropping behind some small objects, trying to see if they could find a way out of the maze.
The thing that alarmed everyone happened—
They had been walking for more than 20 hours and covered nobody knew how many roads. Not only didn’t they find the exit, they even… didn’t find one that they left mark on!
There could only be two possibilities. Either the maze was boundless, an infinite one, or there was some special Inhibition Formation in the maze that would absorb all the things they left behind by force.
Either way, all of them felt they were in huge trouble. They could stay here to be buried with the dead Dragon King forever.
Many Young Ladies were panicking. Some Young Masters looked awful. Even Bai Xiashuang couldn’t keep her composure. The only one that was in some kind of calmness was Bai Qiuxue, but the worry in her eyes could not be concealed.
Rest, cultivating, eating, sleeping against the wall, and rushing to find the exit.
It was hard for those Young Masters and Young Ladies. They were filling their stomach with prepared rations and sleeping against the wall in a not-so pretty way. They had never suffered like this. The most important thing was—there was no place to take a shower!
It was fine for the Young Maters, but the Young Ladies were going crazy. They thought they could leave the place in a day or two, but they had been unexpectedly trapped for two days in the maze alone.
They still could not see any hope of getting out. Many Young Ladies would wake up crying in their sleep. They had been living in affluence since they were young which they had grown accustomed to, and they were the privileged in their respective families. They never went through any troubles let alone sufferings…
At this moment, they were eating prepared food and just water. They couldn’t take a bath. They were lying on the floor in embarrassment. Many Young Masters couldn’t even stand it let alone these delicate Young Ladies.
There was another issue, nature’s calls!
People had three urges. When they ate, they naturally wanted to go to the bathroom. It was a straight tunnel with no place for going to the toilet. Emptying their bowels on the ground with naked bottoms? Maybe it was fine for the Young Masters, but what about the Young Ladies?
In the end, Bai Qiuxue thought of a method. She took a chamber pot from her Interspatial Ring. The girls would walk away and build a toilet by separating some space with cloths. After they finished their business, they would put the chamber pot back to the Interspatial Ring with blushed faces.
…
"Sister, are we going to die here?"
Bai Xiashuang sat next to Bai Qiuxue, lifelessly. The good looks and temperament of a Young Lady were completely gone. Her hair was messed up and she looked seedy.
"No, as long as we have persistence, we can get out."
Bai Qiuxue stroked Bai Xiashuang’s hair. She put on a gentle smile, but it seemed to be forced.
They slept for a while and set off again after several hours of rest. It was the same as before. A more than a dozen hour’s walk yielded no exit. They didn’t even find any path they took that were marked.
"Hmm, hoo~"
Another day had passed. After Bai Qiuxue ordered them to have a rest, several Young Ladies were unable to restrain any longer. They hugged their knees and cried and cried. Many Young Masters sat together, signing in despair. They all looked agonized.
Bai Qiuxue was not able to comfort those Young Ladies anymore. She herself was only 16 or 17 years old. Since a younger age, she had been by the side of the Old Man of Heaven Prison. She never suffered any difficulties. In her heart, she was also experiencing fear and fright.
"Bang!"
"Bang!"
Ding Heng smashed a Xuan Artifact saber at the wall like crazy. The wall lit up in white glare. His hacking couldn’t even leave any marks on the wall.
The other Young Masters looked at Ding Heng but they didn’t stop him. They would all go nuts if it continued like this. It was to let Ding Heng blow off some steam like this.
After he cut at the wall for more than a dozen times, Ding Heng fell to the ground. The several Young Ladies including Xu Fangfei were crying harder. Even Bai Xiashuang’s eye reddened. She leaned against Bai Qiuxue, her body trembling.
"Don’t be afraid, Shuang-er!"
Bai Qiuxue could tell the fear in Bai Xiashuang’s heart. The former reached out her hands and hugged the latter. "Our forefather said we are going to be very lucky in our lives. How will we die in this small Tomb of Dragon King? He said we are going to marry a warrior at the Human Sovereign Realm. We will not die here."
For a brief moment, Bai Xiashuang’s eyes lit up. Then she said with a bitter smile. "Lucky? Human Sovereign? If someone can bring us out, I will marry him even if he is only at the Xuan Wu Realm let alone the Human Sovereign."
"Ha, ha…"
Bai Qiuxue laughed gently and shook her head. As she was ready to say some comforting words to Bai Xiashuang, there came a deep hoarse voice from the distance, "If someone can bring us out, you will marry him even if he is only at the Xuan Wu Realm? How about the Spirit Sea Realm, will you marry him?"
"Swish, swish, swish~"
This sudden voice attracted the attention of many. Bai Qiuxue’s eyes lit up. She stood up suddenly and said, "It is Lu Li!"
"Hi, Lady Qiuxue!"
A figure showed up from a crossing. He was in regular cyan robe and carrying a cute white beast in his hand with a Ghost Mask on his face. He was smiling.
"Lu, Lu Li!"
Bai Xiashuang sprang to her feet. Lu Li showed up after he disappeared in three days. He looked so relieved and he was smiling in his eyes.
Many people got up and gathered around. Bai Qiuxue parted everyone and walked over. She nervously asked, "Lu Li, do you mean what you just said?"
"Yes!"
Lu Li took off his mask. He looked at Bai Xiashuang and teased her, "But I don’t know whether Lady Shuang meant what she said…"
"Eh…"
Bai Xiashuang was embarrassed. Of course, she was just joking. How could she, with her identity and status, marry a warrior of the Xuan Wu Realm, let alone such a horrible person as Lu Li.
"Ha, ha, ha. I am just messing with you. Lady Shuang, don’t feel offended."
Seeing so many men looking at him with such ardent passion, he quit simulating their desire. He said in a deep voice, "Have you been fully rested? If so, I will lead you out of the maze."
"Really?"
Many people shouted in a shrill voice. Many Young Ladies took each other’s hands and shed tears of joy. At this moment, none of them would take Lu Li unkindly. On the contrary, they were warm to him as if he were their savior.
"Island Owner Lu!"
Bai Qiuxue bowed and said with a straight face, "If you can get us out of here, everyone here will owe a life to you."
"Yes, if you can take us out, Lu Li, all of us will owe you our lives," Bai Gu and the others said in agreement. They were excited to the extreme.
"That’s too much. We have come here together so we will leave together of course." Lu Li waved his hand and said, "Let’s go. Little White!"
"Squeak, squeak~"
The little beast carried by Lu Li immediately ran forward. It led the way happily.
