Feng Dingchu's personality was something Chu Qianli liked very much.
She didn't abuse her sympathy. She acted as she should, without hesitation. Honestly, she even envied it.
The two walked out of the dungeon.
Feng Dingchu suddenly stopped. "Girl, when we came in, was it lit all the way?"
"Yes." Chu Qianli walked to her side and nodded. "There were torches all along the stone walls."
But at this moment, it was pitch black ahead. Those torches had been completely extinguished.
Chu Qianli turned around and looked at the black-clothed woman whose acupoints they had sealed. "I'll release your acupoints. You lead the way. Don't play any tricks on me."
Her slender fingers tapped the back of the black-clothed woman's neck.
The black-clothed woman remained unmoved, showing no reaction at all.
Chu Qianli frowned, displeased. "Are you going or not?"
The black-clothed woman still didn't react.
"You..."
"Be careful!" The moment Chu Qianli reached out, Feng Dingchu pulled her hand back.
Looking at the black-clothed woman again, they were surprised to see her slowly collapse after her acupoints were released.
Chu Qianli's expression darkened, and she and Feng Dingchu took two steps back.
The black-clothed woman fell in front of them. Just then, the last torch was extinguished.
The dungeon and its surroundings instantly plunged into darkness.
Chu Qianli took out her flashlight and quickly turned it on.
Shining it on the ground and seeing the appearance of the black-clothed woman clearly, the two looked at each other, a chill simultaneously passing through their hearts.
Poisoned, dead.
"I smell the scent of a 'yaoren'."
Chu Qianli's brow furrowed even tighter. She looked up at Feng Dingchu and lowered her voice. "It's an unknown dark organization. We don't know who is behind it. They've trained countless 'yaoren' without consciousness, turning them into killing tools."
"I've heard Wuya mention it." He nodded, taking her hand and not letting go this time. They quickly walked towards the exit of the dungeon.
"This place is not safe. Hurry! Let's leave first!"
Chu Qianli had said long ago that this place was dangerous. Naturally, she didn't hesitate at all and immediately followed him quickly towards the exit.
But to their surprise, the exit was sealed.
"There's water!" Chu Qianli's sharp eyes noticed water seeping from the stone door and walls.
Feng Dingchu's eyes turned cold, and he immediately took two steps back.
Upon closer inspection, more and more water was seeping from the stone walls.
"They want to drown us here!"
Chu Qianli immediately went forward and struck the stone door with her palm.
The stone door did not budge at all.
Feng Dingchu also went over and placed a palm on the stone door.
The stone door only shook, dislodging a lot of dust, but it still firmly blocked them.
Even more frightening was that his palm had loosened the gap between the stone door and the wall, causing the water flow to increase instantly.
A lot of water seeped in from all around, quickly reaching their calves.
"It seems we can't get out from here. Quick, find another exit!"
Feng Dingchu kept holding her hand, searching everywhere.
But there was no other exit here at all. In the end, they were forced back to the dungeon where Yu Linglong was held.
At this time, more than half of Yu Linglong's body was submerged in water.
Seeing them return, the immobile Yu Linglong cried out hoarsely, "Sir, save me! You slut... Chu Qianli, Chu Qianli, save me, please, save me!"
The water kept rising, soon reaching her neck.
Yu Linglong was terrified out of her wits. "Save me, please, save me! I beg you!"
