Chapter 838: Chapter 832 Jin Zijin Also Descended
Gu Youyou was hanging onto the rope and could barely hold on any longer when she saw Jin Ziyuan below, merely swinging his short sword to kill the rats but not moving an inch.
Desperate, she shouted loudly, "Jin Ziyuan, hurry, Searcy’s voice is getting closer!"
Searcy shouted back through the darkness, "The rats are poisonous, I can’t stand up, you all just run while you have the chance."
But Jin Ziyuan could no longer jump up to catch the rope. He did think about running, but he couldn’t escape.
Gu Youyou turned pale when she heard this. Just perfect, she had also reached her limit.
Her hand let go of the rope, and she fell straight down from above.
The rats, seeing another person join the fray, swarmed toward her in an instant.
...
Thanks to Jin Zijin’s burning blood charm leading the way, they were finally safe on the mountaintop.
Not a single person was missing, and everyone’s face showed a glimmer of joy.
Especially Gui Yunxi, who felt like he had a narrow escape from disaster.
It astonished him that a woman had also gone through such an ordeal.
It’s just that the monkeys had also followed them to the mountaintop, but since there was someone among them that the monkeys feared, they didn’t dare get any closer. Still, they couldn’t bear to leave and just followed from a distance.
Jin Zijin and his companions watched the monkeys, which could pounce at any moment, while anxiously retreating toward the huge pit on the mountaintop.
Beside the giant pit, they found the rope ladder left by Gu Youyou and the others.
Xiao Jinyan exclaimed, "They’ve already gone down."
Right then, a woman’s scream echoed from the bottomless depths of the mountain.
The voice was familiar—it was Gu Youyou’s. Jin Zijin recognized it instantly.
His face turned pale, and without a word, he leaped down into the abyss.
Xiao Jinyan’s expression was grave as he said, "There could be even greater dangers below. I won’t force you to come down. What I said before still stands. If I can’t make it out alive, you can take this to the Xiao Family to collect silver."
With that, he took off the jade pendant that represented his identity from his waist.
To his surprise, everyone shook their heads and said, "No, we’re going down too."
"Yeah, after all the trouble of getting up here, it doesn’t make sense not to go down."
"That’s right, I’ve been really curious about Fusang Island."
"Yes, General Xiao, better to go down quickly. People down there are in danger."
They quickly descended the ladder, these were all skilled individuals, only Gui Yunxi followed tremulously at the back, his scalp tingling more and more the further down he went.
Especially when he reached the lower half of the funnel where it was just one straight rope, he took a long time to decide, then finally gritted his teeth and went down.
...
Jin Ziyuan came down, killing a pile of rats, the only one who wasn’t paralyzed.
The others who came down after him found that two had already been carried off by the rats, heading in the same direction, they guessed that Gu Youyou and her two companions must have been taken there too.
But now there was no sign of Gu Youyou and the others, just a ground full of rats.
In the darkness, only the red silhouette of Chixiao moved through the air. When Jin Ziyuan reached the rock wall, he struck the stone, and instantly a trail of fire ignited.
The cave was illuminated, and those giant crimson rats froze in place, all of them stopping to stare at the flame on the rock wall.
Then, like they had been injected with chicken blood, the rats abandoned their task of carrying food and suddenly pounced toward the burning rock.
