"Mother once said that it would only take two hours to travel from the forest of the Lost Swamp to the swamp. But now …" Yu Han, who had not spoken for a long time, spoke softly, his voice actually carrying an indescribable meaning.

"And now, we have already walked for no less than an hour and a half."

In an instant, no one dared to speak.

Gu Hua Wei was quite clear who the mother of this sultry youth was. Wasn't he her first boss? Wasn't he Yu Qingzhu?

Thus, this kid did not lie.

But the problem was, they had been gone for almost four hours, and they hadn't even seen a shadow of a swamp.

Lu Cheng lowered his eyes and looked at the spot where the fog was gradually thickening, his dark eyes were almost hidden by the dark shadows of the forest, he turned around and grabbed onto the hands of Gu Qingcheng who was closely following behind, not daring to move, the youth's clear yet gentle voice had a rare tinge of heaviness in it, "Everyone is holding hands now, we can't stay here for too long."

Hand in hand?

Gu Ruoyun silently glanced at the back of Yun Ying's head, which hadn't moved at all. Did this slut from New Deer City want her and Yun Ying to hold hands? Is there a mistake?!

There must be something wrong with his head.

However, this was not the time to fuss about personal grudges. It was really difficult.

As Miss Gu was thinking, she lightly crooked her finger at the youth behind her. Yu Han was delighted. Had she finally noticed that he had been watching her all this while? She quickly walked in front of him and whispered into his ear, "Can I switch seats with you?"

The youth's face was completely red from the mist she had brought out. Luckily, it was impossible to see it in the night, so he nodded and gently pulled her hand before him, holding onto what seemed like the shadow of a person's hand. The group of people held hands as they fled towards their destination.

After walking for an unknown amount of time, when the night was so dark that one could not see their own hands, the damp air was like a mix of water droplets, fear and fear of the dark, causing one to only be able to hear the rapid breathing of their companions in front of them.

Gu Hua Wei Wei Wei stretched out her spiritual sense, trying to figure out what was happening.

She absolutely did not believe that they were on the right path, or else how could so many people have come to the Lost Swamp, and only they make a mistake? Or perhaps, something extraordinary had appeared in this place? And this thing kept stopping them from advancing. Or could it be said that they could only move forward and not retreat?

Regardless of the outcome, Miss Gu completely believed that they were the only ones who were unlucky.

He used his Divine Sense to pierce through the fog and straight ahead of him. Along the way, he dashed like a wild horse, trying to find something. However, other than the trees in front of him, there seemed to be nothing else.

The air was filled with an indescribable fishy smell, as if it came from something rotting. Sometimes it was dense, sometimes it was faint. Gu Hua didn't dare to explore any further and withdrew her spiritual sense. An almost heaven-defying thought spread through her mind.

Could it be...

After walking for too long and still not reaching their destination, even the group of cultivators felt a little tired. Gu Qingcheng tugged on the palm of Lu Cheng's hand, causing him to stop and turn back. "Junior Sister?"

Gu Qingcheng weakly called out, tears of fear and hunger appearing in her eyes, "Can we rest for a while?" "I'm so tired …"

The young girl's voice was weak and soft, unspeakably melodious and pleasant to the ear. Even Gu Hua Wei couldn't help but touch the tip of her nose when she heard this. She shouldn't have any nosebleed, right?

However, he calmed down when he realized that there was nothing in the forest that was a threat to his life. He knew that he could not go on like this, so he decided that he might as well find a place to rest first. Tomorrow, after the sun came out, he would continue his search.

Thus, he agreed immediately, "Junior Sister is right."

Saying so, a bright golden glazed lamp appeared in her hand. The faint yellow light immediately swept away the darkness in the surroundings. Miss Gu inwardly cursed. Why didn't this fellow from New Deer City take out the lighting tools? It really made her a little scared, okay?

"This lamp was given to me by the sect master before we set off. It is a life-protecting formation. Senior brother does not dare to casually open it. I hope senior brother and sister will forgive me."

In an instant, all the dissatisfaction she felt towards New Deer City vanished like smoke into thin air. Gu Hua glanced thoughtfully at New Deer City, whose doubts could be dispelled with a single sentence, and her large eyes narrowed. It was still the Sect Leader who was generous and even gave her a few life protecting magic treasures.

Master: Do you have the guts to say Master's name? I promise I won't beat you to death.

"Everyone, follow me." Lu Cheng walked into a sparsely populated area to the side with the Golden Glazed Lamp in hand. He retrieved two tents from his storage pouch. "You can rest after you set up your tents." With that, he glanced at Yuhan and said, "Junior Brother Yu, come with me. Can you help Junior Sister Gu and the other two?"

Three people in a room...

The expressions of the three girls changed at the same time: Who the hell wants to live with this idiot?!

Gu Hua Wei had a grudge with Yun Ying, Gu Qingcheng was at odds with Gu Hua Wei, and Yun Ying and Gu Qing were at loggerheads with each other. Anyone with eyes could see that, but as a team leader, why not make things difficult for the two of them?

"It's not safe tonight. It's better to stay together."

Lu Cheng did not say much, but together with Yuhan, they set up the tent, and placed the faintly burning Golden Glazed Light to the side. From his soft boots, he took out a dagger and lightly drew a line on his forefinger, and a bright red blood trickled down his finger onto the lamp wick, and in that instant! An exceptionally bright golden light flashed out from the golden glass lamp, and in an instant, the golden light enveloped everyone. Gu Hua lowered her head to look, and a original eight trigram formation with a radius of about five meters glowed with rays of golden light, covering the entire area they were in. In an instant, the excruciatingly damp mist also disappeared, and a low buzz finally appeared in the air.

Gu Hua quietly retracted the spiritual sense she had released when Lu Cheng used blood to summon the Golden Lamp. Listening to the weak chirping sound of insects, she smiled.

"So powerful!" Gu Qingcheng walked around the golden lamp a few times, her expression no longer as unsightly as it was before. She turned her head and smiled at Lu Cheng, "The Sect Leader really treats Senior Brother very well." Although there was a bit of envy in her words, it didn't make anyone feel disgusted or jealous.

Lu Cheng didn't seem to be disgusted by his words. Instead, he smiled warmly at Gu Qingcheng, "To protect everyone's safety, this is the most important thing."

Gu Hua slightly lowered her eyes. It seemed that Gu Qingcheng wasn't brain-dead to the point of annoying others. However, this was good too. She was too imbecile and didn't have the nervousness of an opponent to her at all.
