Chapter 1308: Chapter 1216: Making a Deadly Move

Until Su Pan’er disappeared along the path on the mountain trail, the few gazes behind her still followed her like shadows.

This made Su Pan’er feel particularly astonished.

The expressions of these people were clearly wrong, or perhaps, was she overthinking?

After Su Pan’er completely vanished, a courier pigeon flew out from above the village, swiftly flapping its wings and disappearing into the clouds.

Su Pan’er put these thoughts aside. She continued along the route recorded in her notes.

"It seems like there’s a cave nearby, but where is the entrance?"

Su Pan’er murmured to herself as she scanned the surrounding mountains. She quickly shifted her focus to a nearby mountain temple. This temple was strangely situated in a mountain hollow, and there were clear rut marks nearby indicating that people had come and gone.

Rut?

It wasn’t strange to see them in the village, but it was odd to find so many at the mountain temple, especially since the rut marks seemed very old!

Su Pan’er’s gaze was fixed on the mountain temple for a while before she stood up and hurried towards its entrance.

The mountain temple had indeed been abandoned; the inside was filled with spiderwebs and in disarray. As she approached, some unknown creature fluttered its wings and flew out of the temple, kicking up clouds of dust.

Su Pan’er coughed a few times before waving her hand to clear the dust and proceeded inside.

The shrine inside worshipped a middle-aged man, about forty or fifty years old, with thick eyebrows and fierce eyes, exuding a commanding presence. He was barefoot on one foot, stepping on a small dragon. The dragon looked pained, turning its head to gaze back at him silently, as if communicating something.

Su Pan’er found him eerily familiar, feeling as if she had seen him somewhere before.

She circled the shrine and then returned to face it directly, staring into its eyes, while it fiercely returned her gaze.

After a while, Su Pan’er withdrew her gaze.

She raised her hand and lightly touched the small dragon under his foot. The scales on the dragon were vividly realistic, especially a few scales on its chest which were particularly exquisite.

Su Pan’er reached out to touch these scales, and the moment her hand made contact, she felt something unusual. She quickly bent down and pressed on that scale...

Boom...

A mechanical sound roared, and as the noise echoed, the shrine slowly rotated, revealing a dark cave below!

It was indeed here!

Excited, Su Pan’er quickly organized her belongings and decisively jumped into the cave.

The mechanical sound resounded again as the shrine rotated back to its original position.

Outside the mountain temple, two individuals wearing conical bamboo hats quickly appeared. They looked into the temple for a moment and then whispered to each other. One quickly left, while the other slipped back into the shadows.

Su Pan’er continued to move forward inside the cave.

Since she was prepared, Su Pan’er didn’t encounter much difficulty. When she realized it, the view suddenly changed, and she arrived in a vast hall-like space.

This must have been the office area for that group of people.

Su Pan’er walked around inside but found the place bare, with no one around. Some areas still had remnants, and the kitchen even had moldy, blackened bowl and chopsticks, showing how hurried the departure had been.

Su Pan’er didn’t find anything that could prove the identity of the people from the past and left disappointed, continuing along the small path at the end of the cave.

She soon discovered the familiar walls at the base of the mountain.

From the age of these excavations, she had entered the "spider web" beneath Deicide Mountain again!

Upon entering this wall interior, Su Pan’er felt a lot more at ease. She proceeded in one direction, and four days later, she indeed came across the Five Phases-Eight Trigrams Array Formation she had seen originally.

How this formation was constructed was beyond Su Pan’er’s knowledge.

Nevertheless, after days of repeated reflection, Su Pan’er had figured out where several underground passages led.

She continued under the mountain toward Luoyan Village.

Her mind was very alert!

She had realized that the Five Phases-Eight Trigrams Array Formation seemed to have been tampered with—and by more than one person!

Two and a half days later, she finally emerged from the mountain, arriving at the cave where she and Qin Yi had found their Master years ago.

The cave once housed a large python, which was naturally gone now. The water level had also receded, restoring the cave to its original dryness and calm.

Su Pan’er was eager to find her younger brother, Su Ke, and had no desire to linger in the cave. She immediately walked out the way they had originally entered.

Her heart was still pounding!

When they left, although they had taken the water-avoiding beads from the wall, without the water-avoiding beads, the water had flooded into the cave, naturally submerging it.

But now, seeing that the cave was free from water, they didn’t even need to look for an exit, fearing that they might not be able to do anything at all.

She exited the cave and immediately saw the stone slab that had covered the entrance years ago.

Looking up, the swamp was unchanged, and the mountain across from the mountain stood tall, everything appearing as it had before.

Su Pan’er climbed out through a stone slot, then directly scaled to the other side of the mountain.

Halfway up the mountain wall, she walked up to a clump of bamboo, took out a small knife she carried, and cut a piece of bamboo before heading to a spot where the two mountains were closer together.

With a pole vault, she flew directly onto the opposite mountain.

"Stop! Who goes there? State your name quickly, or face death!"

A sudden scolding came from behind.

Su Pan’er turned around and saw four individuals scolding her from behind.

They were actually holding crossbows, and these beautifully crafted crossbows were not something ordinary households could possess.

"Hey! We are talking to you. Stop pretending to be deaf, or don’t blame us for doing our duty and making a fatal move!"

"Don’t be hasty! Don’t be hasty, I’m just a villager from around here. I came here today to find some food to fill my stomach, and I definitely didn’t mean to offend you four officers!"

Su Pan’er spoke fluently in the local accent.

"You’re a local? From where?"

The four of them did not relax at all, rather, they aimed their crossbows at her.

Su Pan’er wanted to cry without tears; stating her origin didn’t work this time. But at this moment, she had no choice but to reveal it.

She immediately continued with an apologetic smile, "Sirs, sirs, I’m from Luoyan Village at the foot of the mountain. I’m a member of the Qin family. We all make our living at the foot of Deicide Mountain, often seeing each other; there’s no need to bring such powerful weapons against a weak woman like me, right?"
