C13 (2/2)

From the endless tide of bloody rats came waves of blood-curdling screams and bites that made the scalp tingle.

”AHH!” My hand. ”My leg …”

In just a few breaths of time, the two of them were completely wiped out.

Squeak, squeak, squeak!

Jiu Mu Li retracted her gaze, and looked at the rat tide army that was getting closer and closer, she had already made her decision.

That lake was her only way out!

BOOM!

Without the slightest hesitation, Jiu Mu Li jumped down. The surface of the lake was smashed apart and a person at the bottom of the lake also opened his eyes.

Gulp... The ice-cold lake water engulfed her entire body, and Jiu Mu Li continuously swam upwards, trying his best to reach the surface. However, there was a strange power at the bottom of the lake that was pulling her body.

That powerful force dragged her towards the bottom of the lake!

In the end, Jiu Mu Li landed heavily on the ground. She looked up in shock, ”This is the bottom of the lake … …”

It was as if she had fallen into a separate space. Above her was a deep lake, but there wasn't a single drop of water around her. It was as if she was on a continent, allowing her to freely breathe.

Jiu Mu Li stood up and looked around. Soon after, she saw an image that made her even more shocked.

At the center of the lake, there was a huge boulder.

There was a man sitting cross-legged on it.

The man wore a black robe, and the outline of his face seemed to be meticulously sculpted. His pair of clear eyes were filled with an ice-cold aloofness, and an extremely cold aura exuded from his body.

Jiu Mu Li could not help but shiver. This man was extremely handsome, but his entire body was covered with a cold aura, making others afraid to go near him.

Bang!

As Jiu Mu Li was thinking about how to speak, she was suddenly thrown into the air by a strong binding force, and then was fiercely smashed onto a boulder.
