Chapter 277: Survived

Translator: Exodus Tales Editor: Exodus Tales

We can try it a few times, but what about the time limit?

Zhou Ruying swallowed the words back down her throat. She knew this was an important moment, and if she said such things, they would have even less of a chance of escaping.

Lu Mingshu was putting all her attention into it right now. The environment around her had changed into many dark lines. She quickly took in the data.

It’s going to be fine. No matter how complicated the maze is, I just need to follow the rules.

At the same time, Su Ze was pacing up and down by the building’s backdoor impatiently.

The hour was soon going to pass. If they were still not out yet, then he would have to carry out the backup plan – making a racket in Volt Wing City. That was the last thing he wanted to do. Even though the Solid Pellet Realm probably wouldn’t come out, the joined forces of the entire city would be really powerful.

“Here!” His servant called out to him.

Su Ze’s eyes lit up, and he stared at the backdoor.

The carts carrying food had been sent out. The guards performed a quick check and sent them out on time.

The carts passed by a street. Two people came out from under the last cart.

“Senior Brother Yan!” Su Ze looked at him, beaming.

But Yan Fei didn’t have time to respond. He opened up the sack on the cart, and a human could be seen hiding inside.

“Young Master!” Su Ze whispered and went up to get him.

“Wait a while.” A light flashed by, and Ling Wuxia was holding the guy with a knife in her hand. “Not yet.” She smiled.

Yan Fei’s face turned black immediately. “Miss Ling, what are you doing?”

“The one you wanted out is here, but two of mine are still in there.” Ling Wuxia smiled sweetly.

“Miss Ling, please be at ease, we will surely help the two Misses get out. Young Master has been tortured in the dungeon and needs immediate treatment, please hand him to us first….” Su Ze explained frantically.

But Ling Wuxia was unmoved. “He hasn’t died for the past twenty years, so fifteen minutes longer shouldn’t be any problem.” She smiled thinly. “Be at ease, I won’t do anything to him. As long as I see my companions alive and kicking, you will get him back.”

“You…!” Yan Fei gritted his teeth, but this wasn’t the place for them to talk. Loitering around here would surely attract attention. He glanced around and turned back to Ling Wuxia. “Fine. We will wait over there.”

The group went back to where Su Ze was waiting previously.

“Miss Ling, please let Young Master take this.” Se Ze took out a pill that he had brought with him and passed it to Ling Wuxia. Seeing how Ling Wuxia made his young master swallow down the pill roughly, Su Ze could not even bear to look.

“How much longer?” Ling Wuxia turned to Yan Fei.

Yan Fei paused. “Fifteen minutes.”

“That’s all?” Ling Wuxia bit her lips. If they didn’t escape in time, they would be doomed.

Ling Wuxia sneered. “If they aren’t out in time, you better do something about it, or else… hmph!”

…

The middle-aged man sat cross-legged on the ground, feeling what was happening in the maze.

His meridians may have been temporarily paralyzed by Zhou Ruying and he could not get in because he had lost the badge of authorization, but he could still feel the situation inside clearly.

Sensing that Lu Mingshu and Zhou Ruying were scrambling around the maze, he couldn’t help but laugh out loud. “You think it’s that simple, huh? Naive kids!”

Even though it was just a normal maze without any harmful traps, it was designed in such a way that a Foundation Realm would take at least three days before they could escape. Forget three days, there are only fifteen minutes until the array is fully activated and they still think they can escape?

The man felt a sharp pain in his heart when he thought of his possessions, which he had given to Zhou Ruying and Lu Mingshu. It’s all fine. As long as I catch them, I’ll get it all back. Not only that, I’ll extract their spirits to use for refining….

Lu Mingshu’s ice-cold and delicate face came to mind, followed by Zhou Ruying’s hourglass figure. The man smirked upon thinking about that, but his face fell immediately when he remembered that, even if he caught them, they would not be his. His position wasn’t so great.

“Eh?” The middle-aged man sensed that they had entered the inner maze. That fast?!

…

Seeing the environment change, Lu Mingshu sighed.

“We’re out?” Zhou Ruying asked, almost breathless.

“There are two layers of this maze. We just finished one.”

“Only one?” Zhou Ruying asked. She ran with all her might just now, and that was only the first layer? How are we supposed to make it out in time?

But Lu Mingshu paid no attention to her. She continued converting what she saw into data and tried imagining what the maze was like.

I can do it. I will make it.

She glanced at the watch.

Five more minutes left. Five more minutes to get to the backdoor and escape, or else…

“Let’s go!”

Both of them ran extremely quickly. The data changed quickly and became faster as they increased their speed.

Lu Mingshu didn’t even know what she was doing now. All the calculations at this point were on instinct.

She always teased Zhou Ruying, saying that if she died, at least there was someone who would be sad. However, that was what she really thought.

How could I die here? Master is still waiting for me. Same for Hui Niang and Ah Sheng; they would be extremely sad.

Master never says it, but I know – to him, I’m his only hope.

And Hui Niang; she lost her husband and daughter and was kicked out of her husband’s family. She stayed in the Lu family and brought me up like her own daughter. The pain of losing her daughter once is enough. I shall not let her experience the same pain twice.

And Gao Xiang, he would be extremely sad. He might seem calm, but he’s actually very emotional.

And also…

Lu Mingshu bit her lips and shook away her thoughts.

No matter what, she must stay alive!

The structure in her mind started to collapse bit by bit as they ran further.

They could only go forward. There was no turning back.

“Light! There’s light!” Suddenly, Zhou Ruying shouted.

Lu Mingshu took in a breath and made a dash for it.

Whoosh! The maze in her mind shattered and was left behind.

The middle-aged man stood up abruptly, unable to believe what he just saw.

Escaped? They have managed to escape?

How could it be?

No matter how he tried, he couldn’t sense anything.

There was nothing in the maze.

His mind flew back to his assets. The Violet Cinnabar Plant, the Violet Ginseng Fluid, the Ghost’s Head Vine, the Heavenly Wolf’s Ivory…. “Damn it!”

Only

His treasures were all gone!

…

“How much longer?” Ling Wuxia asked impatiently.

Yan Fei didn’t reply.

Fourteen minutes and ten seconds. They aren’t going to make it.

He threw a glance at Su Ze, indicating that they would have to cause a scene in Volt Wing City. No matter what, we must get Young Master back first, or else…

Wait, what’s that?
