Chapter 449: Gathering Outside The Valley

Hui Ze felt that this young lady named Shen Ying might be a little problematic in the head, why would anyone call herself an immortal? But that she was willing to leave with him to search for an exit still made him heave a sigh of relief, after all the Sacred Nether Forest was really too dangerous. Though he did not know why she appeared here, but she had no cultivation and was a lady, even if she did have some divine power, she might not be able to escape from the claws of high level demon beasts.

He seemed to have thought of something and reached into his clothes, pulling out a pearl the size of a fist. Shaking it forcefully, the pearl released a white light after a moment and lit up the entire cave which was originally in darkness. After some thought, he then pushed the pearl to Shen Ying.

“Miss Shen, please help me hold on to it.”

“Alright.” Shen Ying took it.

Yet he began to dig around again, perhaps because he was too fat, though his entire body was squatting, he still did not manage to pull anything out for a long time. He could only draw his hands out then hugged his bulging belly like he was hugging a watermelon then lift it up at once and then jump up and down a few times.

Following a clatter, items fell out from under his belly skin one after another, forming a pile on the ground. There were artifacts, talismans, spirit stones, everything.

Shen Ying was speechless. Is there a cosmic bag under your belly?

“I found it!” Hui Ze delightfully picked up a crumpled piece of paper by his side and opened it up carefully. That seemed to be a map, there were crooked thin lines that were hard to read on it.

He stared at the map for a long time, then did some calculations while rifling his fingers and muttering to himself, joy creeping onto his face. As expected, he was right, he only needed to make it past the defenses outside the forest and he would truly be free.

“Miss Shen, where we are right now is not too far from the border of Sacred Nether Forest, if I have guessed correctly, this caves runs through the entire rock mountain, the exit should lead to the outside of the forest.”

Shen Ying’s countenance remained unchanged, but she still nodded and replied unconcernedly, “Oh.”

Whereas Hui Ze continued happily, “Although this cave is huge, the terrain doesn’t look to be very complicated, it should be rather easy to find an exit.”

“Alright, let’s go then!” Shen Ying turned and walked forward.

Hui Ze hurriedly picked up all the items on the ground, with Shen Ying around, he was too embarrassed to stuff them all back into his belly and could only hug them in his arms while quickly catching up.

He had calculated the distance earlier, they weren’t far from the border, no matter how complicated this cave was, at the most, they ought to find the exit in half an hour’s time, of course, that is in the situation where nothing crops up.

Two hours later.

“Miss, I think we were here just a while ago.”

“Oh, then let’s go the left side.”

“We’ve already went there six times.”

“Then the right?”

“We’ve gone to the right nine times already.”

“What about the back?”

“The back is a dead end and we’ve just come from there.”

“Err…” Shen Ying paused for a moment, then turned around and tapped her teammate’s shoulder. “Fatty Hui! I think it’s pretty cooling here, why don’t… we just wait here for someone to pick us up?”

Hui Ze: “…”

I’m guessing you just don’t recognize the paths? Also, what the heck is Fatty Hui? You are the one who will become fat ¹ , your whole family will become fat!

“Miss Shen…” Hui Ze helplessly exhaled deeply. “Why not we exchange roles, you can first return the illuminating pearl to me, let me lead the way.”

“Mm.” Should have said that earlier, Shen Ying stole a look Hui Ze who was hugging a large pile of items and reached out to place the only illuminating pearl in his hands on top of that huge pile, to prevent it from falling, she even specially used the talisman to hold it in place, then briskly moved behind him. “Done.”

Hui Ze who was waiting for her to help carry the items: “…”

Were all the young ladies in the world like this?

He paused for a second, then accepted his fate and continued forward, discern the directions through the gaps between the items with great difficulty.

The two of them moved around the cave for another 15 minutes before a white light finally appeared before them, vaguely refreshing.

“It’s the exit!” Hui Ze was overjoyed and quickened his steps in that direction.

After taking a few steps out, he stopped again, as if having thought of something. He placed everything in his hands down, then a bunch of talismans and pushed them to Shen Ying, saying, “It’s the border of the Sacred Nether Forest outside of the exit, there will definitely be cultivators keeping guard there. Quick! Paste the talismans on, this way they won’t discover us.”

With that said, he grabbed a few pieces of talismans and pasted them all onto his body, putting dozens on all at once, almost turning himself into an electricity pole. Turning back to see Shen Ying wasn’t moving, he rushed again, “Quickly paste them, if we are found we won’t be able to escape anymore.”

Shen Ying glanced at the crookedly drawn, peculiar talismans in her hands, how ugly! She really couldn’t bring herself to paste them on.

“I’m not using them.” There was really no need to.

“Don’t underestimate these, they’re very useful, I managed to escape because of these…” He stopped midway, then continued to rush her. “Really, I won’t harm you, as long as we have them… Huh? Where are you going? Hold on, Miss Shen!”

Seeing that Shen Ying was already moving towards the exit, Hui Ze panicked and grabbed everything on the ground in one go, not caring whether some had dropped or not and trotted forward to catch up.

“Miss Shen, be…”

Before he could finish his sentence, she’d already stepped out of the cave, in the next moment, two white figures suddenly appeared from the sky, thick Spirit Qi surrounding them as they stopped before them. Hui Ze was shocked, they’ve indeed caught up! It was already too late for him to grab Shen Ying, instead in his panic, his foot twisted and he fell forward, about to fall on his face in the next second.

But Shen Ying suddenly reached out and grabbed his collar, pulling him back.

“Don’t worry.” As if knowing what he was worried about, Shen Ying added, “The people to pick me up are here!”

Pickup? Hui Ze faltered, lowering his head to peek at the sleeves of the two before them, he did not find any familiar looking drawings, were they not…

“Hey, Father Niu, Chef!” Shen Ying then walked out and greeted, waving her hand.

“Hey my ass!” Lonemoon angrily glared at her, suppressing the urge to beat her up. Turning around, he swept a glance at fatty and the already dark expression, turned worse. “Who’s this ball with broken strips of paper all over him, where did you pick him up from again?”

“Near the cave.” Shen Ying answered.

Lonemoon’s mouth twitched and retorted directly, “You lost item can you have some self-awareness, you’ve just been lost for few hours, please don’t casually pick up some random thing please?” He would be the one raise him at the end too!

The random Hui Ze: “…”

“Master…” Yi Qing ignored the cranky Father Niu and stepped forward to hold Shen Ying’s hand and examined her carefully from top to bottom. “Are you okay?”

“I’m fine.” Shen Ying shook her head, then added after some thought, “I just haven’t had dinner.”

“I’ll make dinner right away!” Yi Qing immediately turned around and used an earth element spell, instantly building a stove, then pulled out pots and pans and all sorts of seasonings as well as various fruits, vegetables and meats from the storage bag. Summoning a ball of fire, he began to skilfully stir fry vegetables.

Hui Ze: “…”

(⊙_⊙)

Wh… what was going on? Weren’t they supposed to quickly escape? Why were they suddenly making dinner? The mood changed too quickly, he totally couldn’t react in time!

Looking up at the other person, he questioned, “Both of you are… Miss Shen’s friends?”

“No!” Lonemoon retorted right away, his expression darkening. “She’s the creditor!” Children were all nuisances demanding their debt!

“…” Huh?

“I’ll settle things with you later.” Lonemoon ignored fatty and turned to give Shen Ying a glare, but habitually pulled out a table, chairs and cutlery, placing them right at the entrance of the cave. As if seeing that the ground wasn’t very flat, he even used an elemental earth spell to even it out.

“…” Who were these people?

“Miss Shen…” He could only looked towards Shen Ying with a questioning look.

Yet he saw that she had already shifted to the Chef’s side and was questioning him in a low voice.

“Chef, on your way here, did you pick up all the little animals?”

“Don’t worry Master, all is good! Didn’t even miss one out!” With that said, he even patted the storage bag beside him.

“Great Chef, put a big one on the grill.”

“Yes Master, no problem Master!”

“Fatty Hui, I’ll treat you to dinner tonight!”

Hui Ze: “….” My name is Hui Ze!

Lonemoon: “…”

Damn! Turns out all those demon beasts on the way had been hunted for her? He was wondering why Chef insisted on going down to pick them up!
