The long sword finally approached the destination quickly. From a high vantage point, he could see layers upon layers of dense forest in front of him. Above the forest, faint circles of smoke appeared one after another, letting everyone know that the Lost Swamp was right below him.
Xi Jiang's Lost Swamp was a chilling existence in the continent of the Nine Nations, just like the Qin Nation's Misty Forest.
With vast forests, hot and wet swamps, abundant plants, and the rock region hidden in the deepest mountains, the plentiful production could mean the same or greater dangers.
Lu Cheng used his spiritual energy to pull his sword to a stop at the edge of the forest.
Yun Ying was the first to walk down the long sword. She glanced at the lush greenery, as if a person would be shrouded in shadows the moment they entered.
Gu Qingcheng carefully glanced at Lu Cheng, lifting up his white dress before walking a few steps forward. Staring at the gloomy forest, he furrowed his brows and walked to the side of Lu Cheng, grabbing onto the hem of his robes in a charming manner, "Senior, I'll follow you."
Why does this sound so ambiguous?
I, follow, you?!
The days in New Deer City are not so beautiful.
Lu Cheng couldn't help feeling vexed, but he still gently removed Gu Qingcheng's hand from her clothes, "Junior Sister Gu, there's no need to be so panicked. Experiencing is human nature, in the future, I'm afraid there'll be even more." The meaning behind her words was simply, "Little girl, I can't rely on you. It's better to rely on others than myself."
Gu Qingcheng obediently nodded her head. She was only trying to sound out the truth. She would never place her life in the hands of a man she couldn't trust.
However, to seek the protection of a hero when encountering danger was in itself the privilege of being a beauty.
After taking a look at Lu Cheng's face, which didn't change at all, and confirming that he wasn't angry, he said, "What senior brother said is true. Junior Sister is making too much of a fuss." After which, she shot a coquettish glance at Lu Cheng and fell silent.
Lu Cheng secretly heaved a sigh of relief and nodded his head. He then received Yun Ying's contemptuous gaze, "It's better to enter earlier than to flirt with each other."
Guo Guo's words caused the two parties involved to blush.
Lu Cheng: Why are they flirting with each other?!
Is it really good to wrongly accuse a good person like him?
The pattern shows Tucson breaking.
Yuhan stood silently by the side and walked behind Gu Hua Wei who was yawning. He looked thoughtfully at New Deer City, then at the forest before him and did not speak.
Lu Cheng looked at the approaching noon sky, then looked at the entrance to the huge forest that was about to devour everyone. He said in an incomparably gentle tone, "Everyone, prepare yourselves. Shall we enter the forest immediately?"
Yun Ying let out a cold snort and shot a glance at Jade Cold Jade who was watching from the wall. Without caring about what Deer City said, she walked quickly towards the small path within the forest, as if she was not going to a dangerous place, but to heaven.
Lu Cheng smiled helplessly. Was his ability to be questioned?
Yun Ying? It was good.
Gu Hua Wei Wei Wei didn't really care about how many people these people were entangled with. In her opinion, it would be weird if they could get along peacefully.
As for Miss Gu Qingcheng, what was her plan?
The group of people shakily walked into the lush forest. In the vast forest, where the sun wasn't hidden, the heart was as cold as an unfathomable fog that corroded one's body. Miss Gu rubbed her goose bumps. She had already raised a pile of arms, and her two rows of teeth had somehow clashed.
It was not strange to see tall, nameless trees soaring up from the ground, but the feeling of looking up into the sky as soon as they entered the forest sent shivers down one's spine.
Although the forest was large, there weren't many flowers and grass beneath the trees. A winding, seemingly endless trail snaked through the tall trees. The path was rugged and silent.
Only the eerie cold air that came out of nowhere was enough to make one's scalp tingle.
Yun Ying let out a low curse. She clearly did not expect that this forest would be so troublesome. It was actually even more troublesome than the Misty Forest.
Gu Qingcheng's lips turned white from the cold. Only now did she realize that this experiential learning that she had spent so much effort to gain was akin to endless suffering. If she had known earlier, she wouldn't have bothered to suffer here.
Keep your spirits up, junior brothers and sisters. The Lost Swamp is at the edge of the forest, not too far away." He also didn't expect such a situation to occur. As the captain, he could only encourage his friends, saying, "When we get there, we can set up a tent and have a good night's rest. Tomorrow we can complete the mission.
Hearing this, Yun Ying snorted again. This time, she did not say any more sarcastic words.
"Senior-apprentice Brother is right." Gu Baihua hurried up to brush up his presence. "I'll listen to senior brother."
After speaking, Lu Cheng quickened his pace, heading deeper into the forest. On the way, for some reason, there wasn't even the sound of a bug chirping. It was extremely strange.
Gu Hua quietly turned her head and saw Yu Han, who had been following closely behind her, holding a long sword in hand. Yu Han didn't expect her to turn around so suddenly, and a smile immediately appeared on his handsome face. Gu Hua lightly pressed her lips: "Shh …"
Yu Han's movements froze. Only then did Gu Hua Wei turn his head around and caught up to Yun Ying's footsteps with two quick steps.
He didn't know when, but the sunlight shining through the gaps in the leaves above his head had already disappeared, and what replaced it was the white fog that slowly spread from the distance into the forest. It was clear and faint, but it was enough to bury everyone's gaze tightly.
This sudden strangeness caused all of the young boys and girls to be on high alert.
Miss Gu took a deep breath. This was the tempo of something happening.
When something abnormal happens, there must be a demon. This saying would definitely be effective here.
However, they had already walked for almost two hours. Even if they left now, the weather was too dark. Their only choice was to keep walking forward.
"Everyone, keep your spirits up!" The voice was extremely loud, and through the thick fog of fog, Gu Hua was only able to make out Gu Qingcheng's tottering figure, as well as the back of her head.
"Senior apprentice-brother …" Gu Qingcheng's voice finally contained traces of trembling, "Something's wrong here …"
Gu Hua was slightly aware that Gu Qingcheng was truly afraid.
No matter how powerful Gu Qingcheng was in the end, or how scheming she was, up until now, Gu Qingcheng was still only a young girl that had yet to turn twelve. How could she not be afraid of something that didn't make sense?
