Chapter 568: Lord Jue, they want to protect you

Black dust fell from above. A wisp of black grass and wood ash floated on the surface of the pond.

The grass and wood ash floated in another direction along with the pond water. The direction was not where they swam in, but in another direction.

Ling Jue stood up and smiled. It seemed that she had found it.

Feng Yulin looked at her and reached out to pat her head. "Ling Jue."

"Hmm?" Ling Jue looked up at him. "What's wrong?"

"Nothing." Feng Yulin smiled and hugged her. "Thank you for your hard work."

Ling Jue was stunned for a moment, then a smile appeared on her face. "Master Feng, remember to compensate me when you go out."

"I can stay with you for a long time."

"I don't want you. You're worthless."

"But it's worth almost losing your life to save me. That's enough."

"..." Ling Jue pouted. The crazy master was really cunning.

"Let's rest for a while. We can leave this damn place now."

"Master, we can leave now." Qi An stood up and stretched his arms. "We're not that useless."

"Yes, master. Let's go now. We'll be fine."

"I'll be fine too."

"..."

The five of them stood up and looked at Feng Yulin with determination. They really did not need to rest.

"Let's go then." Ling Jue turned to look at them and chuckled. "Be careful when you're fighting with the snake later."

She then jumped into the water and swam to the other end of the pool.

Feng Yulin quickly caught up with her, and so did the others behind him.

There were many snakes in the pool, but they were too busy running for their lives to pay attention to them.

"Keep your strength up." Feng Yulin frowned when he saw the cliff in front of him. The secret passage should be at the bottom as well.

"Yes!"

Ling Jue and Feng Yulin swam side by side, looking around vigilantly.

Tang Yuan popped out of the water and bubbled. "Lord Jue, there is indeed a secret passage down here, but it's very narrow. You can only pass one at a time. Also, you have to be careful not to fight with brother snake, or you'll be bitten."

"Okay." Ling Jue glanced at Feng Yulin. "I'll go take a look first."

Feng Yulin grabbed her wrist and pulled her into his arms. He planted a kiss on Ling Jue's face and said gently, "I'll go."

"Okay." Ling Jue nodded.

Feng Yulin dived into the water and disappeared in a moment.

"Tang Yuan, follow him." Wonton was currently in a deep sleep, so it could not help Feng Yulin. She would feel more at ease if Tang Yuan went.

"Lord Jue, I want to protect you."

"Go take a look first. If Feng Yulin arrives and you come back, I won't do anything to you. These snakes won't dare to touch me."

"Okay."

Tang Yuan pouted and dived into the water.

It caught up with Feng Yulin in a moment. He dived out of the narrow tunnel.

Tang Yuan followed him and surfaced from the water. "Handsome young man, is everything okay here?"

"Yes."

Feng Yulin looked at the water in surprise. It was as if he was in another world.

Tang Yuan did not have time to look and immediately dived back into the water.

Ling Jue waited until Tang Yuan arrived before everyone followed her.

Qi An and the others were confused. Why did Master Jue seem to know that their master was fine?

When Ling Jue came out of the water, she saw Feng Yulin burning firewood on the shore.

She swam to the shore and looked around. She was stunned by the scene.

It was so beautiful. There were so many big trees, like the mountain behind the mountain.

There was no one around, but it was peaceful.

Other than the snakes that kept running out of the secret tunnel...
