235: Chapter 235: Testing the Gods (Part 11)

It's over. Qian Ye watched the golden light dissipating from her body and sighed, "Sigh, saving someone is truly difficult."

The next moment, she squatted by the roadside, holding her sword and drawing aimlessly.

She didn't know how much time had passed when a coughing sound came from beside her.

Qian Ye turned around, "You're finally awake." Her tone sounded somewhat aggrieved.

Hearing the familiar voice, Meng Yu was somewhat incredulous.

She had actually heard Big Boss's voice!

Meng Yu struggled to sit up but found her whole body devoid of strength. "Don't move around yet; your body is still weak."

"Cough, cough, it really is Big Boss!"

Meng Yu stared at Qian Ye, and the next moment, she burst out crying with a "waa."

"I, I thought I wouldn't be able to see Big Boss again. When I woke up, I didn't even know what kind of crappy place I had arrived at."

"At first, I thought it was another new dungeon, but later, things felt increasingly wrong…"

Meng Yu hugged Qian Ye and chattered away… explaining all her recent encounters.

Qian Ye listened quietly, and only after Meng Yu finished speaking did she realize the latter was completely wilted.

Qian Ye complained infinitely in her heart.

She just wanted to live a peaceful life in her old age; why was it so difficult?

Could these people just be a little more well-behaved?

"Big Boss?" Meng Yu wiped her tears, looking pitifully at Qian Ye.

"Ah, Big Boss, Big Boss, please hurry and save Tai You and the others."

Qian Ye sighed helplessly, "Fine, since things have turned out this way, I can only take care of this meddlesome matter."

Upon hearing this, Meng Yu's eyes instantly lit up.

Qian Ye stood up and brushed the dust off her body, "Do you know where they were roughly taken?" Meng Yu shook her head, her eyes looking somewhat dim.

Qian Ye frowned and began to think. Suddenly, she seemed to have thought of something, "The place where I found you was in a dark, damp environment, and the Yin energy was extremely heavy."

Meng Yu's eyes brightened, "Then, would finding a similar place work?"

"We can go check the abandoned Ancient Mansion in the city; it has always been eerie."

"That was also the place where I first appeared."

"The place where you first appeared?"

"Yes, I came out of the Floating Life Pavilion for no reason. It was hard enough to run into Tai You and the others here, but before we could even talk in detail, we were drugged unconscious." Meng Yu explained their experience while leading the way.

"You mean you saw this said final trial at the Floating Life Pavilion."

Meng Yu nodded, yes.

Qian Ye smiled playfully, "Then do you know where this is?"

Meng Yu looked around in confusion; isn't it just in the game?

Qian Ye shook her head, "This… is the real world you all have been yearning for."

"The human world."

Qian Ye's words stunned Meng Yu, leaving her frozen in place.

"Ho, ho… how is that possible…"

Clearly… it was clearly said to be a game…

A trial…

Meng Yu's heart was pounding non-stop.

It didn't say that the final level had to be a game world.

"Just… like that, we came out…" Meng Yu muttered to herself, somewhat incredulous.

She believed Big Boss's words implicitly, but…

Why…

Just left so suddenly.

The next second, she calmed down again.

That's right, it's still in the game; what does it matter if we came out?

Holding these complex thoughts, the two arrived at the Ancient Mansion.

Just standing outside the Ancient Mansion, they could feel a pungent odor; a stench of decay permeated the inside.

With a gentle push, the door opened, and the courtyard was desolate.

As soon as they stepped into the main hall, they saw a group of Black-Robed Figures surrounding the unconscious Tai You and Blue Shadow in the center, chanting.

"They are here!"

Meng Yu rushed over without a second word.

Meng Yu was agile, blocking attacks while searching for a way to break the sacrificial ritual.

A moment later,

Qian Ye watched Meng Yu also getting caught up in it and rubbed her forehead; truly…

The next moment, she took out that sword and directly controlled the red thread to rush toward the center of the sacrificial altar.

With a "bang," it plunged straight into the center of the sacrificial altar.

In an instant, all the surrounding Black-Robed Figures were blasted away.

"Damn it, the ritual was interrupted; it failed. They are useless now; kill them."

"Kill them!"

Instantly, all the Black-Robed Figures split into two groups; one group rushed toward Tai You and Blue Shadow on the sacrificial altar.

The other group rushed toward Qian Ye and Meng Yu.

The red thread returned to Qian Ye's hand, and she directly joined the battle as black mist permeated the surroundings.

Qian Ye looked at the black mist and then at the wilted little flower in her arms, a smile curling at the corners of her mouth.

What a coincidence; free nutrients had delivered themselves to her door. The next second, she walked straight into the black mist, allowing herself to be swallowed by it.

The surrounding Black-Robed Figures saw this scene and sneered, "Seeking your own death."

They only thought that Qian Ye had already died inside.

Instantly, the remaining people concentrated their attacks on Meng Yu.

They saw those red threads transform into a sword and slash directly at the Black-Robed Figures.

When Qian Ye watched the little flower devour the black mist completely, she saw the red thread that had turned into a sword, and instantly, she had black lines on her forehead.

"I say, you've become addicted to imitating." The appearance of that sword was exactly like the sword in the center of the sacrificial altar; if not for the color, they would be twin swords.

Those Black-Robed Figures didn't have strong combat power and were quickly finished off by the red thread.

After Tai You and Blue Shadow woke up, they looked bewildered.

Meng Yu hurriedly ran over to hug them and briefly explained what had happened.

Tai You looked at Qian Ye with teary eyes, "Sob, sob, sob, Big Boss, you saved me again; you are truly my second parent."

As he spoke, he wanted to step forward and hug her, but the red thread blocked his figure.

If the red thread had facial features, it would probably be expressing disdain.

Qian Ye shook her head, "Hurry up and leave this godforsaken place."

Just as everyone turned to leave, a gust of cold wind blew by, and the surrounding temperature plummeted.

They saw a line of blood-red text appear on the wall: "You ruined my good deed; you all must die!"

Subsequently, a black shadow slowly emerged.

Qian Ye shielded Meng Yu and the others behind her, ready for battle. The black shadow let out a shrill laugh: "You think you can escape so easily? This Ancient Mansion has been cursed by me for many years."

Qian Ye curled her lips, "Then let's try." After saying that, she raised her sword and rushed toward the black shadow.

The black shadow moved rapidly, dodging Qian Ye's attacks and releasing streaks of black mist.

A red light rushed directly toward the black shadow; the black shadow let out a miserable scream and gradually dissipated.

The little flower swung its body vigorously.

"Hehe, Master, I'm back. Do you still have to rely on me?"

"Yes, yes, yes, you are the best." Qian Ye coaxed the little flower, and the group prepared to leave the Ancient Mansion.

"Big Boss, where are we going next?" Tai You's whole face wore an impatient expression.

Now he really wanted to have a big fight.

"No rush; let's first see what exactly happened here."

Qian Ye wanted to know what had happened to this city; the entire city was permeated with deathly aura.

The sky was gradually turning white, and the full view of the entire street could be seen clearly.

"This, how long has it been? Why have these shops and peddlers' stalls become so desolate?"

"Where are the people here?"

Tai You gazed at the whole street; not a single shadow of a person could be seen.

"This, this is all covered in spiderwebs!"

Tai You looked at the tightly shut doors of every household, approached one, poked through the paper on it, and before he could see inside, he heard a scream.
