Chapter 566: If you go, you will only be sending yourselves to death

"Master!" Seeing Feng Yulin, Qi An, Qi Bei, and the others rushed over. The five of them knelt in front of Feng Yulin. "Master, your subordinate is late."

"Get up." Feng Yulin and the others' hearts sank. "Where are the others?"

"Master... "

Qi Bei hesitated for a moment, and a pained expression appeared on his face. "They're all dead."

The miasma in the forest had poisoned several of their companions to death.

If they had not found a way in the end, they would have died as well.

Out of the twenty brothers who came with them, only five of them were left now.

They had held on until now and had been searching for traces of their master. Otherwise, they would not have been able to hold on any longer.

"It's been hard on all of you." Feng Yulin's voice was low as he looked at the approaching fire. "I'll make them return it!"

Qi Bei and the others' eyes heated up. Only then did they notice the person beside their master.

He glanced at Qi An. "This is... Master Jue?"

Qi An was also stunned. Who could tell him why their Master Jue was here!

"Now is not the time to reminisce. Let's go." Ling Jue took the lead and walked into the river. "There's a secret passage here. They won't find us here. However, when we go in, each of you will pull up some grass."

She pointed at the green grass beside her.

Everyone was confused, but Qi Bei and Qi An quickly listened to Ling Jue's words and pulled up some grass.

The others saw that their two bosses had pulled up some grass, so they pulled up some as well.

"Let's go."

"Alright." The fire behind them was getting closer and closer. Everyone knew that they could not continue their small talk.

"Hurry up, all the snakes in the forest will be here soon." Ling Jue turned her head and glanced at them. She took the lead and dived into the water, swimming towards the cliff wall.

Feng Yulin followed, as did Qi An and Qi Bei.

"Brother Bei, who is that kid?" This was the first time the other three had seen Ling Jue. They were a little confused when they saw how close he was to their master.

Qi Bei patted him on the shoulder and smiled. "You will know in the future who is as important as master. If you say that you will die if you are disloyal to master, if you are disrespectful to him, I will make your life a living hell."

The three of them were shocked. They had already made a plan. This person must be very important to their master.

Ling Jue led the way, and they came out of the water in about a minute.

It was difficult for an ordinary person to hold their breath for a minute.

Fortunately, these people were not ordinary people. They were still calm after they came out of the water.

Ling Jue was the first to climb up to the shore. It was very narrow, but it could accommodate these people.

She found a place to sit down and looked at the empty space. They could only leave after the fire outside was extinguished.

Since they had made up their minds to burn the place down, they would definitely send someone to search the mountain.

"Master, we can't wait for death here."

"Master, Yin and I will go look in the other direction and see if we can find a way out."

They knew that their master was injured and could not hold out for too long.

Ling Jue said calmly, "We can't go now."

Qi An's eyes darkened. "Master Jue, but our master's body..."

Ling Jue looked at the entrance where they swam in. "You'll only be sending yourselves to death if you go."

Everyone followed his gaze and saw many snakes slithering towards them.

"Oh my god!" Everyone was shocked. What should they do?!

Ling Jue sat on a rock and leaned against the cliff wall. She said with a chuckle, "I told you to pull up the grass and rub it on your bodies. Otherwise, you'll be eaten by the snakes."

So that was how the grass was used!
