Ye Wuji was actually very nervous.
He had heard the little fox say that the little fox was picked up by Ye Tiancheng, and judging by the current situation, Ye Tiancheng had also picked up the little fox and kept him by his side.
Ye Wuji wondered where he should go, as he had no home. He didn't know if Ye Tiancheng would be willing to pick him up, just like he had picked up the little fox.
Thinking of this, Ye Wuji couldn't help but feel a little annoyed again.
At this moment, he couldn't help but regret that he should have been friendlier when he spoke to Ye Tiancheng and the others before, instead of being so sharp-tongued and speaking in such a bad tone.
Ye Wuji was afraid that for this reason, an opportunity that was originally there would now be gone.
It was indeed the little fox's words that stirred Ye Wuji's thoughts.
Fortunately, Ye Tiancheng did not refuse him, and even expressed that he had originally intended to take him along.
As Ye Wuji breathed a slight sigh of relief, gratitude also arose in his heart.
Although the young man who had taken him away at the time was actually full of lies and intended to harm his life, Ye Wuji vaguely felt that Ye Tiancheng and the others should not be that kind of people.
Moreover, some things were quite obvious.
The atmosphere when Ye Tiancheng and the others interacted, their words and actions, and their interactions were completely different from those who had beaten him and tried to kill him before.
It was their atmosphere that attracted Ye Wuji.
Therefore, Ye Wuji gradually opened up when facing Ye Tiancheng and the others, and finally agreed to help Ye Tiancheng and the others, sign a contract with them, and develop trust in them.
Although for Ye Wuji, trusting others was indeed a rather risky thing due to his past experiences.
However, there were some things that Ye Wuji could not do on his own.
He really needed help from others.
Moreover, Ye Tiancheng and the others might truly be worthy of his trust.
Thinking of this, Ye Wuji softly said to Ye Tiancheng, "Thank you."
Ye Tiancheng then stroked Ye Wuji's head.
"You're welcome."
With that problem resolved, the little fox started chatting with Ye Wuji again.
The little fox told Ye Wuji about the outside world.
He said to Ye Wuji, "Although in your era, people should have been very afraid of and avoided non-human existences, and many people might not have believed in these existences."
"But now, the outside world has changed, so you don't have to worry that you won't be able to live well outside because you look different from ordinary people and have to hide."
"Now there are special action teams outside. They might not understand, but when we go out, we will teach you things you haven't learned about. Even if you are different from normal ordinary people, you can take an assessment in the special action team and obtain an identity that allows you to live in human society."
"In any case, you can live openly outside."
Ye Wuji did not have much knowledge or understanding of the outside world, nor did he have many ways to understand it. Therefore, although he couldn't fully understand what the little fox was saying, he listened very attentively, and his eyes seemed to be shining.
Seeing Ye Wuji like this, the little fox became even more attentive when talking about the outside world, explaining as simply and detailed as possible to make it easier to understand.
If Ye Wuji didn't understand something and asked, the little fox would patiently and carefully explain it clearly, without feeling impatient because Ye Wuji asked questions that were too simple for those who knew these things, or because Ye Wuji asked too many questions.
In the peach forest, there were no paths, and they were just walking blindly. It would be much easier to find a direction and reach the edge.
Moreover, in a place like this, it should logically be far from the previous tomb, and it would be easier to find that tomb again.
If they walked around randomly like this, they should be getting further and further away from that place.
As expected, after a short while, Ye Tiancheng and the others discovered a continuous mountain wall. Between the mountain walls, there was a narrow path like a crack in the sky. They just didn't know what kind of world lay beyond this path.
Ye Tiancheng and the others sensed it and confirmed that there should be no problem if they entered, so they decided to go in and test it.
Even if the mountain wall was alive, Ye Tiancheng was not too afraid.
With his strength, even if the mountain wall closed in on them after they entered, he could take everyone out in an instant. Therefore, he was not worried at all and was indeed overconfident in his abilities.
The path between the mountain walls was indeed extremely narrow, and it was quite difficult for an adult to pass through it.
It was not convenient for Ye Tiancheng to carry Ye Wuji through it. Seeing this situation, Ye Wuji voluntarily transformed into a bird-like form and stood on Ye Tiancheng's shoulder. In this way, it would be less difficult for Ye Tiancheng and the others to leave, and it would not be so inconvenient.
As they walked further and further, they reached the innermost part, which turned out to be a cave-like structure. The top was not the sky, but also a stone wall.
They turned on their flashlights again and walked for about half an hour before reaching the end of the cave.
It was another stone door.
This stone door had no mechanism and could be opened by pushing it directly. Ye Tiancheng pushed the door open directly, but he couldn't see anything. The space behind the door was pitch black. When he shone his flashlight, he realized that there was a staircase leading upwards behind the door.
As they walked upwards, they encountered a small square door above their heads.
This small door led to an unknown place.
Ye Tiancheng tried to push the small door, but at first, he couldn't open it, even though he had used a lot of force.
However, based on the feeling of pushing and the resistance, Ye Tiancheng relaxed slightly.
The feeling was that the small door was not locked from the outside, but was likely pressed down by something, which was why it couldn't be opened.
If that was the case, it wouldn't be difficult for them.
Their first priority was to leave this damned place. They didn't need to force anything or ensure the integrity of all the items here. If the door couldn't be pushed open, they would just break it open by force.
Problems that could be solved with strength were not problems at all.
Ye Tiancheng and the others were all cultivators, and they were all quite strong.
Since the door opened upwards, Ye Tiancheng didn't know what was pressing on top of it. He asked Ye Wuji to stay with the little fox and asked Liang Ping and the little fox to stand a little further away, just in case something happened and they were affected.
Then, after making preparations, Ye Tiancheng tried to push that door.
The force on the door was indeed not small, but Ye Tiancheng could still push it. After a lot of effort, the door was finally pushed open by Ye Tiancheng. As soon as the door opened, many things poured down from the doorway.
Ye Tiancheng felt fortunate that he had been prepared and had made the little fox and the others hide.
However, even if they hadn't hidden at that time, it wouldn't have been a big problem.
Because Ye Tiancheng sensed that the falling objects were not heavy objects that could easily cause injury.
When these things pressed on the door, they did have some weight, but when they fell like this, they wouldn't injure anyone, let alone crush them, because what fell was a large pile of dry straw.
However, after these things fell, Ye Tiancheng was choked.
He pushed the straw aside and then tried to walk out of the small door. The little fox and Liang Ping, along with Ye Wuji, quickly followed.
After Ye Tiancheng came out, he immediately used his flashlight to observe the surrounding situation.
As a result, when he looked, he found that the scene before him was extremely familiar. He was slightly stunned. The little fox and the others followed him from behind and climbed out. Ye Tiancheng then asked the little fox, "Do you think this place looks very familiar?"
"Is it the cellar from before?"
When the little fox heard Ye Tiancheng's words, he was first slightly stunned, then he immediately scanned the surroundings and was also very surprised.
He nodded blankly and said, "It really seems like it... Isn't this the cellar from before?"
Liang Ping had not been with Ye Tiancheng and the other two in the previous timeline, nor did he have such strong tacit understanding, so he asked blankly, "What cellar?"
When Ye Tiancheng heard Liang Ping's question, he briefly explained to Liang Ping, saying, "Do you still remember when we communicated before, we talked about how the head of the Lin family, Lin Yanshu, tricked us into coming here and told us to deal with that mirror, whether to destroy it or give it to us, about that matter."
Liang Ping recalled and remembered the corresponding world.
He said, "Oh, now that you mention it, I remember too. They seemed to say that the mirror was in the cellar and asked you to get it."
"So... is this actually..."
"Still within the scope of the ruined hotel?"
Ye Tiancheng and the little fox had personally been to this place before, so they wouldn't easily mistake it. They carefully confirmed some details again. Although some places were not exactly the same, some details could still be recognized as the original cellar.
The little fox swallowed nervously and said, "If I'm not mistaken, it should indeed be the cellar from before. If that's the case, then we've really returned to the ruined hotel."
Ye Tiancheng said, "This is also a good thing. Judging by the state of decay here, it should not be the previous timeline. It is still in the timeline before Liang Ping and Nie Chongyang were here. Since it is directly within this area, we don't have to worry about the trouble of finding Nie Chongyang and having to go through a lot of trouble."
The little fox nodded and said, "That's true..."
However, while Ye Tiancheng and the other two were talking, they suddenly heard a series of bird calls, very close to them.
They were initially a little unaccustomed, and then they suddenly realized that the bird calls were from Ye Wuji, who had been following them.
The little fox asked Ye Wuji, "What's wrong?"
Then, Ye Wuji let out a series of urgent bird calls again.
After being stunned for a moment, the little fox then said to Ye Wuji, "Wait, Wuji, don't be anxious. Change back to human form first. In this state, we can't understand what you're saying. You should change back first."
