Book 1: Chapter 177

At that moment, time moved so slow that I couldn't understand what was happening even as Kan Jian jumped off of the cliff.

I really wanted to kill Jiang Zi Suan from the bottom of my heart. In retrospect, if I had a way to kill him from this distance, I wouldve really done it.

Jiang Zi Suan wasnt crazy and instantly returned to the forest and disappeared. As we slid down the tree, it was like my brain wasnt registering my emotions. I couldnt feel anything. I wasnt afraid, I didnt panic, nor did I collapse. But my mind wasnt clear, either. Instead of immediately rushing over, we carefully but quickly walked past tree by tree.

I was confident that Jiang Zi Suan's eyes would never recover, but I was afraid that his ears were strong enough to compensate for the loss. After taking a few steps, Liu Sang began to run, but I quickly grabbed him.

"He ran away, he said to me. He just used this to delay us. Take a look. Liu Sang could tell that I didnt believe him and added, "Then just use me as a shield, ok?"

I didnt have any objections to this, so I picked him up and dragged him all the way to the edge of the cliff. After looking down, I realized why Kan Jian had jumped after Bai Haotian.

He had put the paraglider in his bag earlier and pulled it out at this time. He hadnt been able to fold the paragliders sail earlier, so it didn't open completely, but when he jumped down from the cliff, the rope and sail hed pulled out hung directly on the edge of the rock. Liu Sang wanted to shout, but I stopped him. I had already seen Kan Jian below. He had actually fallen quite far, but I could still make him out from this distance. He was holding something in his hand that looked to be a person.

I still didnt dare relax. The edges of the cliff protrusions here were very sharp, so even if Bai Haotian had been caught, she might have still been killed long ago.

Kan Jian didn't say a word. This boy may look silly, but in fact, his mind is clear. He doesn't know what the situation above is like, so hed rather keep quiet, I thought to myself.

After a short two-minute rest, I took Liu Sang and Bai Haotian and continued down. The rope wasnt long enough, so I found a few footholds and put Bai Haotian on my back. I then unfastened my safety buckle, jumped quickly with my bare hands, and fell to the bottom of the valley. As soon as I landed, I immediately felt suffocated.

I tried to slow my breathing down, but found that I couldnt. My throat hurt so much that it felt like it was on fire.

Liu Sang followed me down and instantly choked as well.

Then, I found that it was hard to open my eyes and I couldnt see anything at all. Even my eyes felt like they were in severe pain.

At this time, my mind seemed to stutter as a thought immediately popped into my head.

I had originally thought that the poisonous gas below was strong, but we could at least climb a tree within a minute or two. What I didn't realize was that the poisonous gas below was directly fatal. We fell to the ground as soon as we landed.

This was a huge miscalculation. I clenched my teeth, got up, and took two steps towards the nearest tree. My nose, mouth, ears, eyes, and lips all felt like they were beginning to melt. I wanted to laugh bitterly, but my mouth was full of blood.

At the moment my vision started to go dark, I saw two wild men covered in fur rushing out of the fog. They were carrying something like sacks, which they used to cover us.

Oh ho, I think we all know who these mysterious men are. Here are some pics of cute, baby Max and the lake to tide you over until tomorrow (Sidenote, I suck at fishing. I literally caught everything but fish. Rocks, trees, twigs, you name it. What can I say? It's a gift ahahahaha)
