Chapter 336: 337 - Unparalleled in the World (Second Update)

Dai Yu watched the interaction between the two, the smile in her eyes faltering for a moment.

She had been with Mr. Mo for 18 days, during which they had exchanged less than 10 sentences, each no longer than five words.

She had thought Mr. Mo was simply reserved and not prone to talk, but she hadn’t expected...

Was she really that bad? Mr. Mo didn’t even bother to speak a single word to her.

Bitterness crept into her heart.

Since childhood, she had been brought up doted on by all her senior brothers; she had never been treated coldly by anyone before.

Dai Yu’s beautiful eyes flickered, and when she looked up again, her eyes were filled with laughter, "Sister, I’ll lead the way; you and Mr. Mo follow behind me."

As soon as she finished speaking, she turned and walked to the side of the stone monument, took a deep breath, and set one foot on the iron chain.

As soon as her foot touched the iron chain, it creaked and began to swing uncertainly.

"Be careful," Chu Jin followed behind her, gently reminding her in a soft voice.

Dai Yu looked back, her smile sweet and innocent, "Sister, I’ll be careful, and you be careful too."

A smile is the best disguise.

Anyone should be utterly defenseless against an innocent smile.

One could tell that Dai Yu was quite agile.

After taking the first step, each subsequent step was very stable.

For a woman to have such courage was truly rare.

Step by step, the three of them moved cautiously, each step like treading on thin ice.

The length of the iron chain was about 800 meters, and as they reached the middle, the mist in the ravine completely enveloped them, growing thicker and thicker until the white expanse obscured everything in sight.

"Sister, the fog’s getting thick. If you’re scared, you can hold onto my clothes," Dai Yu’s concerned voice came from ahead.

"I’m fine, you be careful too," said Chu Jin, her voice revealing no trace of anxiety, clear and calm, each word a balm to the spirit.

This sudden fog was quite strange, appearing without warning.

If someone had slightly weaker resolve, they might have lost their footing by now.

Was she really not afraid?

The smile at the corner of Dai Yu’s lips slightly stiffened.

Mo Zhixuan followed behind the two women, hands in his pockets, his demeanor epitomizing calm, walking as if he were strolling leisurely on solid ground.

To him, a mere iron chain and a thick fog were no more than child’s play, unworthy of concern.

The fog grew denser still.

Dai Yu’s pace also slowed.

The frequency of the iron chain’s swinging increased.

It seemed as though it could fling someone off at any moment.

In fact, this fog had little effect on Chu Jin, who possessed exceptionally keen senses, but she had no choice but to slow down as Dai Yu’s speed decreased.

The distance between the two women was only half a step.

To maintain balance, both of their hands were outstretched.

Probably only Mr. Mo could afford to walk so leisurely with his hands in his pockets.

Just then, Dai Yu’s foot slipped, and in a panic, she completely lost her composure, causing the chain to sway violently.

In that moment between life and death, Dai Yu grabbed Chu Jin’s wrist, "... Sister, save me."

But the accident had happened too quickly, even Chu Jin hadn’t expected it. Suddenly pulled by Dai Yu, her body violently plunged toward the cliff below.

To be precise, both of their bodies were rapidly falling.

Chu Jin instinctively tightened her eyes shut, and Zi in the Purple Thunder Space exclaimed in shock as well.

As one crisis subsided, another arose.

Falling from such a height, she wouldn’t turn into a puddle of mush, would she?

Unexpectedly, the next second, a tightness gripped her waist, and a strong arm encircled her, pulling her into a cool yet secure embrace.

A familiar scent of tobacco lingered around her nose.

Chu Jin slowly opened her eyes.

From her angle, she could just make out the chiseled, cold contours of his jaw and his lips pressed into a line.

Her heartbeat skipped several beats.

The swiftly passing scenery around them had faded into the background. At this moment, the world seemed to vanish; in their eyes, they could only see each other.

Mo Zhixuan held her, his toes stepping over the iron chain, his body turned into a fleeting shadow, with only the whistling wind in the ears. When they landed again, they were already standing steadily on the mountain peak across from the iron chain.

"Do you have any idea how dangerous that just was?" Mr. Mo said with a stern face. The inkiness in his eyes nearly materialized, dripping down as he brushed away the stray hairs on her face, his rough fingers gently tracing her delicate skin, tickling and cooling.

Brushing aside the hair revealed a face sculpted like jade and a pair of clear, enchanting peach blossom eyes; her dense, long lashes quivered slightly with an innocence that held a hint of seduction. Mr. Mo’s breath hitched, his encompassing arm unconsciously tightened around her waist, and he slowly curved his lips into a stroke of ink-like arc.

Chu Jin, for some reason, despite having forgotten him, felt her heart flutter at the arc of his lips. He was a man not given to smiles, and his current expression, with its faint indulgence, reminded her of ice meeting warming sunlight, the thawing frost bringing life to all. If she had to describe it, it would be "A jade-like person on the path, unmatched in this world."
