Chapter 265: Weird Passage? (1/2)
“It has already been three hours, how long is this passage?” Tian Xue started to get worried as she still wasn’t able to spot the end yet. Cheng Yu also had no idea, but continuing on like this wasn’t a feasible solution. So, he took out his Jewel Cauldron.
“I think we should enter the Mountain River Diagram. This is way too slow!” After Cheng Yu spoke, he entered the Mountain River Diagram with Tian Xue. After that, he propelled the Jewel Cauldron to continue forward. Although the Jewel Cauldron wasn’t a flying-type artifact, it’s speed wasn’t any slower than any of those flying artifacts. Furthermore, its defense was very high. Therefore, even if Cheng Yu were to come across those demonic beasts again, there was no longer a need for him to exit and deal with them, but could just bore his way through.
“Tian Xing, how are you feeling?” When they entered the Mountain River Diagram, Tian Xing had just woken up. Tian Xue went over to learn about his status. After all, he was struck heavily by a Golden Core Realm beast without any proper defense. With just his Qi armor alone, it basically didn’t have much of an effect in resisting the attack.
“Senior Sister can be at ease. It’s not much of a problem, just that some of my internal organs have been heavily injured. I just need some days to recuperate and I will be fine,” Tian Xing’s complexion was still pale as he consoled Tian Xue with a smile. Tian Xing was an orphan. When he was young, he was brought to Tianshan Sect. He had been brought up by Tian Xue’s mother. He grew up with Tian Xue. Tian Xue was older than Tian Xing by a few years and had always treated him as her brother while Tian Xing had always treated Tian Xue as his sister.

“Senior Brother, we wouldn’t be trapped here forever, right?” Tian Xing looked at the situation outside. They were advancing, but they still couldn’t see any end to this passage, making it seem like an endless road.
“Not sure. Just like what your Senior Sister said. Perhaps, this passage is not a dead-end. If this passage truly leads to the treasury, it shouldn’t be that long,” Cheng Yu could only try to comfort everyone. What he wanted to do now was to understand why the Art of Derivation from All Living Things would appear here. What exactly was hidden here? This was something Cheng Yu was baffled by.
“But if it isn’t so?”
“Then we can only continue forward,” Cheng Yu voiced out his helplessness in the situation.
“Hmph! It’s all your fault. If you had listened to me and went to search for the god water, why would such a thing happen? Now we can’t even obtain treasure and we even got trapped here!” Tian Xue sat on the grass after giving Cheng Yu a kick gloomily. Until now, Tian Xue had been worrying about her mother’s injury. She hoped to locate the god water as soon as possible. The emergence of Cheng Yu allowed her to see hope, but he kept on wanting to search for treasure. So, she had no other choice and could only suppress her anxiety. Now that they had been trapped, she got even more anxious. The small hope was extinguished.
“Che! Still dare to blame me. If it wasn’t you acting like an intelligent woman to trick me, why would I charge in so casually? If you want to find someone to blame, blame yourself. Acting like a barbaric woman suits you more. In the future, don’t act so intellectual in front of him. Facts have shown that you are just a barbaric woman,” Cheng Yu nipped a piece of grass as he laid down on the grass with his eyes closed. Both his hands were placed behind his head as he voiced out his dissapointment.
“What barbaric woman! Who’s a barbaric woman! You better be clear with your words!” Tian Xue heard the evaluation Cheng Yu gave her and she immediately got angry as she kicked him a few more times.
“I am not blind. Tian Xing, what do you think?” Cheng Yu shut his eyes and didn’t move, allowing Tian Xue to vent her anger on him.
“Tian Xing!” Tian Xue glared at Tian Xing.
“Er…this…I feel…actually…Senior Brother…haha…what you said is extremely correct!” Tian Xing shrunk his neck back. All of a sudden, he laughed.
“Tian Xing, you are asking for a beating!” Tian Xue shouted before pouncing towards Tian Xing.
“I’m wounded!” Just when Tian Xue about to give him a slap, Tian Xing shut his eyes and shouted.
“Hmph! I’m letting you off today. Wait until you have recovered, I will teach you a lesson,” Tian Xue withdrew her hand and glared at Tian Xing furiously. Tian Xing was suffering from some grave injuries so she didn’t wish to worsen his injuries.
“Senior Sister, if it’s like that, my injuries will never recover,” Tian Xing spoke bitterly.
“Who asked you to make nonsensical remark by agreeing with him?” Tian Xing glanced at the unmoving Cheng Yu and commented.
“Then why aren’t you beating Senior Brother? You can’t bear to, right?” Tian Xing chuckled.
“Who says I am not going to beat him? I am going to teach him a lesson now,” Tian Xue walked to Cheng Yu and started giving him a few kicks.
“You are asking for it,” Just when Tian Xue was about to kick Cheng Yu, Cheng Yu opened his eyes and grasped Tian Xue’s ankle. He followed up by kicking Tian Xue’s other leg.
“Ah!” Both of Tian Xue legs went face up to the sky and she fell down onto Cheng Yu. Cheng Yu rolled away causing Tian Xue to land on the grass patch.
