After everyone escaped, they were all overjoyed. It was really too difficult for a few small characters like them to live among a bunch of big shots. They could only survive in the cracks, living in fear as if they were treading on thin ice.

Who would have thought that this would happen? They simply wanted to spend a peaceful night in the cave, but things ended up like this.

Liu Chuan saw that Lin Sisi had been lying at the side for some time and asked worriedly, “Is Lin Sisi alright? Why isn’t she awake yet?”

Meanwhile, Wu Zhixin was sitting beside Lin Sisi and watching over her.

“She should be fine. I’m not sure either. I fainted the moment I came to that godforsaken place. When I woke up, Lin Sisi fell there,” Monkey replied.

Following that, Monkey thought for a moment and continued, “When I woke up, I vaguely saw Lin Sisi standing in front of me. She seemed to be confronting the illusory figure, but I must have been wrong. After that, Lin Sisi collapsed.”

When Liu Chuan heard Monkey say this, he found it odd. Just as he was about to ask again, he heard Lin Sisi cough.

“Cough, cough.”

“Sisi, you’re awake. Are you alright?” Seeing that Lin Sisi had finally woken up, Wu Zhixin was overjoyed and her eyes turned slightly red.

Lin Sisi woke up and saw a group of people staring at her. She blushed and said weakly, “I’m fine. I’m just a little tired. I’ll be fine after some rest.”

Upon hearing Lin Sisi’s words, Liu Chuan and Monkey felt relieved. It was good that she was fine.

Since everyone was fine, everyone began to chat. Liu Chuan and the others began to talk about their experiences after they separated.

Liu Chuan pondered for a moment before telling the others about his experience.

Of course, he did not explain the details of the illusory realm. He also concealed the matter of the two lotus seeds.

As for how he had woken up Wu Zhixin, that was something he absolutely could not say.

Monkey’s experience was even simpler. He had fallen into a coma on the endless path of darkness. After he regained consciousness, he didn’t even know how long it had been. After that, he felt his buttocks begin to heat up. Following that, the two Boss Horses crossed through space and arrived.

Meanwhile, Lin Sisi only said that she was unconscious like Monkey. She didn’t know anything else.

Liu Chuan took a deep look at Lin Sisi after listening to her. He could sense that Lin Sisi was hiding something from him.

However, even he himself hid many things, so it was not good to dig deeper.

…

“If I had known earlier, I would have gone to the sword tomb to pluck a spiritual sword. I wonder if I’ll have the chance to come here again in the future,” said Monkey suddenly with a look of pity.

“I’m not going. What’s so good about dead people’s stuff?” When Wu Zhixin heard Monkey’s words, he spoke with disdain.

When Monkey heard Wu Zhixin say that, he was immediately displeased. He retorted, “Pui! Pui! Pui! If you want to be called a sword sage, what do you know, Little Fatso?”

“You stinky monkey! How dare you say that I’m fat? I’ll fight it out with you!” Wu Zhizhi pointed at Monkey’s nose angrily when she heard Monkey say that she was fat.

“Oh, I’d like to see you…”

Seeing Monkey still trying to court death, Liu Chuan covered Monkey’s mouth, preventing him from saying another word.

“Wu Zhixin, Monkey is sick in the head. You know that. If you are magnanimous, please let him off this time.” Liu Chuan tried to curry favor with Wu Zhixin.

“Hmph!” Wu Zhixin crossed her arms over her chest and snorted angrily.

Monkey still wanted to struggle, but he was ruthlessly suppressed by Liu Chuan.

Monkey did not know Wu Zhixin’s strength, but Liu Chuan knew.

Wu Zhixin looked harmless to others. Usually, she only knew how to eat and eat. Whenever she encountered trouble, she would hide behind. However, her strength was indeed extraordinary. At the very least, she was much stronger than Monkey.

In order to change the topic, Liu Chuan started to introduce Lin Shensheng. “This is the friend we met in the remains, Lin Shensheng.”

He wasn’t familiar with Lin Shensheng either. Other than her name, he didn’t know anything else about her. Thus, he could only introduce her name.

Lin Shensheng nodded politely at the others and didn’t say anything.

Liu Chuan was depressed as well. Did the Lin family like to act aloof?

Monkey did not wish to kick up a fuss at that moment either. He had long wanted to get to know this cold beauty, but since she acted so distant, he was too embarrassed to ask.

It was rare for Monkey to be shy.

Finally, Monkey used his elbow to gently poke Liu Chuan’s arm. He gave Liu Chuan a look that all men understood. There was even a hint of lewdness.

As for Liu Chuan, he sat upright and looked straight ahead, pretending not to see anything.

He thought, “If you want to do it, do it yourself. I’m not going to do it.”

…

…

Meanwhile, at the training base, in Wu Chuanjiang’s office…

“Little Jiang, I remember that today is the last day of the collective training.” A man dressed in traditional Chinese attire sat on the sofa and looked at Wu Chuanjiang.

This person looked to be in his thirties, but he had a head full of white hair. Even his eyebrows were snow-white, but his eyes were filled with vicissitudes.

The man was dressed in a plain Tang-dynasty suit and casually leaned on the sofa, giving off an otherworldly feeling.

It was as if he wasn’t leaning against the couch, but the clouds in the sky. He didn’t seem mortal.

On the other hand, Wu Chuanjiang, who was sitting opposite him, acted out of character and said respectfully, “Master, why did you come? You didn’t even tell me that you were coming. Look, I wasn’t even prepared.”

Officer Wu, who was usually dignified and domineering, was actually a little submissive now.

The white-haired man glanced at Wu Chuanjiang and said, “Didn’t I call you a few days ago? What else do you need to prepare? Where’s my granddaughter?”

Upon hearing the white-haired man’s words, Wu Chuanjiang broke out in cold sweat. He was momentarily speechless.

“I… I lost her…”

Wu Chuanjiang was conflicted for a long time, but in the end, he told the truth honestly.

The white-haired man seemed to have already known, so he wasn’t surprised. “Where did you lose her? Bring me there.”

“Yes, Master.” Wu Chuanjiang hurriedly stood up and led the way for the white-robed man.

…

“Master, this is the place. At that time, our people saw them enter this cave and disappeared.” Wu Chuanjiang explained to the white-haired man in a low voice.

“This small cave actually has a small universe formation. I wonder which expert set this up…” The white-haired man noticed that something was wrong the moment he saw the cave and muttered to himself.

“Master…” Wu Chuanjiang was about to speak again.

Then, the man in white waved his hand and stopped him from continuing. He chuckled and said, “They’re here.”

They’re here? Who was here? Wu Chuanjiang didn’t understand for a moment.

At that moment, a group of people, which was made up of five people and a wolf, walked out of the cave. They were chatting and laughing. It was Liu Chuan and the others.

When the white-clothed man saw Liu Chuan and the others come out, his originally immortal-like temperament instantly changed into an amiable appearance.

“Grandpa Bai, why are you here?” Wu Zhixin, who was holding a drumstick in her hand, was elated to see the white-haired man. She then ran toward the white-haired man happily.

Wu Bai smiled. His smile was filled with affection.

Then, he hugged Wu Zhixin, who was running towards him. He didn’t care that the drumstick in Wu Zhixin’s hand had dirtied his clean clothes, even though the clothes were his favorite.

Wu Bai hugged his granddaughter and smiled happily. “I knew you were done with your training, so I came to see you and bring you home.”

“You seem to have lost some weight. You should eat more.”

“Okay, Grandpa Bai. I want to drink milk tea. I’ve finished my milk tea. Do you have any?”

“Yes. Here, I have 100 flavors. They’re all super large cups with three toppings each.” Wu Bai waved his hand and a huge pile of milk tea appeared on the ground.

Everyone was silent..
