Imperial Treasure-Chapter 1159 - 681: Days of Living Together (Part 2)

Chapter 1159: Chapter 681: Days of Living Together (Part 2)

Shi Feixuan’s slightly weary expression eased a bit, and said to Sui Yi: "Lu Miaozi is a top mechanism master in the world, proficient in formations and the Eight Trigrams, so it’s normal not to decipher it immediately. Teacher, don’t mind it."

Sui Yi nodded slightly, his gaze sweeping over the wall lamps, he frowned gently.

This underground place blocks magnetic sensation.

Could it be that there’s some force related to that?

Cangwu Fragments? Or... Statue of the Gods?

This was like a blind cat stumbling upon a dead rat, giving her the traces she couldn’t find for the past half-year...

Sui Yi felt a mix of amusement and helplessness, but was somewhat thankful for this predicament; perhaps it was fate.

However, the precondition was that she must leave here and find the true core of the treasure trove.

Then, Sui Yi walked over, put the backpack on the ground, and opened it.

"There’s no way out at present, let’s wait a bit and plan at length... but the three of us have been stuck here for quite a while, so let’s eat something first."

Hmm.. looking at the food and various tools in someone’s bag...

This food is the kind that’s hardest to find in Tiandu Square, wrapped in lotus leaf for storage, it won’t spoil or lose flavor even if left for five to six days....

The person who prepared this food must have been very mindful.

——Or, very wealthy, compelling others to pay attention.

However, being trapped in such a dire situation and still being able to taste delicacies hard to find on normal days, the feeling is truly complex....

Shi Feixuan remained silent, but Wanwan smiled intoxicatingly: "Teacher is really considerate, if truly of male stature, wouldn’t it be wonderful...."

Those words somehow seemed odd.

Truly of male stature?

Could it be she’s now using a false male stature?

Sui Yi gave her a glance and said lightly: "My surname is Lu."

Surname Lu, name Miaozi, can you bear to say it?

Wanwan: "..."

Shi Feixuan: "....."

Alright, honestly, Teacher can be quite petty.

Eating, the three of them didn’t speak much, Sui Yi had a small appetite, actually wasn’t hungry at all, just drank a couple of sips of water before asking: "Regarding that assassin earlier, can you tell me who he is?"

"You don’t know him?" Wanwan seemed puzzled, "His reputation is quite substantial; anyone who has seen him is either dead or can recognize him at a glance."

"You can just answer my question," Sui Yi said softly.

Wanwan pursed her lips, playing with her beautiful fingers, just about to speak...

"Shadow Assassin Yang Xuyan," Shi Feixuan said gently: "This person’s assassination skills are nearly unrivaled in the Martial Arts World."

Sui Yi nodded, she agreed with this; the opponent’s inner strength level is actually similar to theirs, but with that skill in covert assassination, it substantially boosts the lethality.

"Looking at his movement technique... seems to have some proficiency similar to Hou Xibai," Sui Yi’s words made Shi Feixuan glance at Wanwan, and lightly said: "Same apprenticeship but belonging to different sects, one from Flower Sect, the other from Patch Heaven Sect." 𝒇𝒓𝒆𝒆𝙬𝒆𝒃𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝙡.𝒄𝓸𝒎

Meaning, these two people’s master is Shi Zhixuan?

Sui Yi didn’t expect such a background from the opponent.

That makes it even more difficult to handle, and now, the opponent is in this underground space just like them, only it’s uncertain why not together...

Suddenly, Sui Yi thought of Cangwu’s time-space leap ability.

She couldn’t help but slightly curl her fingers.

————————

Anyway, just one day and night, Wanwan felt this life wasn’t joyous.

Because Shi Feixuan was fine, moreover looking vibrant and physically strong, whereas she... sigh~~

Also because this Sui Yi..... either opened his mouth to hit people with a mallet or was sullen like a log, only occasionally wandering around small places that can be understood in an hour within several shichen, uncertain what he’s looking at.

Of course, what really made Wanwan feel the days weren’t happy was.....

One day and night, anything can be ignored, bathing and such can also be neglected.

But!

What about eating?

Humans are iron, food is steel, skipping a meal makes one famished, they practice martial arts, yet not Taoism, all fasting periods are fleeting clouds...

Three people, the food merely enough to barely sustain for one meal, which is only because all three’s physique is remarkable, with small appetites.

And now... all that’s left in Sui Yi’s backpack is a piece of cake.

She directly broke the cake in half, handed one half to Shi Feixuan, Wanwan pouted seeing this, only to find Sui Yi extending the other half to her.

"Teacher previously ate very little, this cake you should eat yourself," regarding Sui Yi’s care, Shi Feixuan was not ungrateful, but it didn’t hinder her own principles.

One cannot be so shameless.

"No problem, I’m different from you..... not so easily hungry," Sui Yi said lightly, not allowing refusal, placing the cake on Wanwan’s crossed legs.

Wanwan didn’t fuss, simply took it.

Shi Feixuan glanced at Sui Yi, gently ate; after finishing, she said: "I’ve observed this sealed place’s structure resembling a maze, with Lu Miaozi’s various construction of formations, most suited to the Big Dipper North Star layout, if to dismantle it, one can only find the Gang Position to open the hidden compartment... but finding this position is the hardest part."

Wanwan pondered for a moment, then said: "Isn’t it in the next room on the right?"

"Not there," Shi Feixuan shook her head.

Sui Yi knew the young masters of these two sects had been taught various disciplines since childhood, among them Qimen Bagua is indispensable, under this pure martial influence, they naturally knew more than her, so after the three reached a temporary agreement to cooperate in leaving this place, Sui Yi witnessed their capabilities.

The ground had been marked by the two with many layouts and formation setups, along with numerous possible breaking points, yet every attempt of theirs failed.

Here’s the issue.

They could at most sustain for another two days in this place, after two days, even if not starved, they’d perish from thirst.

Add to that the extremely low temperature here, even Sui Yi felt that staying in this cold for long, physical agility was beginning to dwindle...
