A day ago, Luo Xiao and Ye Lan were just going out to eat, but on their way home they were being followed. Luo Xiao realized that all the followers were cultivators, numbering more than ten people. He alone could not possibly deal with them all.
So he decided to seek outside help. Just as they turned around to seek help from Mr. Huo, more than a dozen people suddenly appeared from another direction, forcing them to drive towards another road, a road leading to the suburbs. And in the suburbs, there were already more than ten people waiting. For the sake of their lives, he and Ye Lan had no choice but to obediently become hostages and were taken to this pitch-black place and imprisoned.
“Xiao Xiao, are you alright?” Ye Lan couldn’t see his appearance in the darkness, so stretched out his hand to feel Luo Xiao’s body and asked worriedly, “Are you hurt anywhere?”
“Don’t worry, Yezi, I’m fine.” Luo Xiao was a cultivator and could still somewhat see the surroundings compared to Ye Lan. He could still ‘see’ through spiritual perception. Seeing the obvious worry on Ye Lan’s face, he couldn’t help but feel a sense of guilt in his heart: “Yezi, I’m sorry, because of me, you…”
Ye Lan directly interrupted his words, “Xiao Xiao, you don’t need to apologize to me. Being kidnapped together with you is better than you being kidnapped alone. In fact, I would rather it be me alone who was kidnapped.”
“Yezi, it’s so good to have met you.” Luo Xiao stepped forward and tightly hugged Ye Lan’s waist, sighing in happiness.
Ye Lan’s mouth also curled up into a deep smile. Although the location was not right at this time, the atmosphere was good, wasn’t it? So some benefits could still be taken advantage of… He leaned in close to Luo Xiao’s ear and whispered softly, “Xiao Xiao, since I’m so good, why don’t you let me sleep in the bedroom when we get back?” After saying that, he deliberately licked Luo Xiao’s full earlobe. Mmm, the taste was as good as always.
Luo Xiao covered his flushed right ear with his hand and glared at him angrily, but immediately realized that Ye Lan couldn’t see his expression. So he pinched his waist hard. Hmph, the accounts will be settled when they get back!
However, it was precisely Ye Lan’s distraction that helped Luo Xiao’s nervous nerves to calm down a bit. After all, he knew that tomorrow, or 15 hours from now, his master and the other cultivators would launch a full-scale attack on this Holy Teachings. Whether they could completely destroy it in one fell swoop would depend on tomorrow.
But why were they captured at this critical moment? Could it be that they were being used as hostages? But that doesn’t seem right either!
Unable to figure out the reason for their capture, Luo Xiao and Ye Lan decided that it would be best for them to try to find a way out on their own. To be honest, they were also very worried about the big battle tomorrow.
“Xiao Xiao, can you figure out where we are now?” After adapting for a while, Ye Lan found that it was still pitch black in front of him.
“Let me try.” Luo Xiao tried to mobilize the spiritual power within himself, intending to use it to explore the outside situation. But to his surprise, he found that although he had abundant spiritual power within him, he was unable to mobilize it, as if it was suppressed by something. How could this be? He widened his eyes in surprise and tried several times, but unfortunately the result was the same every time.
He let his ears droop and pressed his head against Ye Lan’s chest, mumbling, “Yezi, I can’t sense anything.”
“What’s wrong? Did your spiritual power disappear?” Ye Lan asked worriedly.
“No, it’s being suppressed by some unknown external force, so I can’t use it.” Luo Xiao explained in a low mood with his lips pursed.
Ye Lan let out a sigh of relief. “It’s okay, as long as your spiritual power is still there. Even if you can’t sense it, it’s fine.”
“But without my spiritual power, I won’t be able to use talismans and other things. How are we going to get out of this trapped place?”
“Then do you know what kind of place this trapped area is?”
Relying on his strong abilities, Luo Xiao carefully scanned his surroundings. “This seems to be an artificially constructed room. I think the suppression of my spiritual powers is related to this room.”
“If that’s the case, Xiao Xiao, do you know what material this room is made of? Is there any way to break through?”
“I’m not sure.” Luo Xiao stared at a section of the wall. The more he looked at it, the more it looked like that thing. But you know, it was only his good luck that he was able to come across a few pieces of that thing. If this is really what he guessed, then he would have hit a jackpot, right?
“Xiao Xiao?” Ye Lan clearly sensed his lover’s breathing had become heavier in a short time and he couldn’t help but worry.
“No, it’s alright, Yezi, let’s go confirm something.” Luo Xiao suppressed his excitement and firmly grasped Ye Lan’s right hand.
Although Ye Lan didn’t know what his Xiao Xiao wanted to confirm, he still nodded, “Okay, let’s go.”
After he finished his words, they walked towards the nearest stone wall. Luo Xiao stared at the stone wall closely and reached out his slightly trembling hand to touch it. The next moment, he immediately turned around and jumped onto Ye Lan, excitedly stammering, “Yezi, it’s true, we hit the jackpot! Hahaha, I knew our luck couldn’t be that bad!”
“Xiao Xiao?” Ye Lan’s brows furrowed in confusion. Has his baby gone mad?
Luo Xiao stretched out his hands to firmly embrace Ye Lan’s head and planted a loud, resounding kiss on his lips. This made Ye Lan’s eyes light up. If this was what it meant to be “mad,” he loved it!
Luo Xiao did it again and again, and finally managed to calm down his emotions. He knew that this was the time to reveal his secret to Ye Lan.
“Ahem, Yezi, there’s something I want to tell you.” Luo Xiao took a deep breath and spoke solemnly.
“Hmm? What is it?” Ye Lan could hear the seriousness in his tone, and his curiosity was piqued.
So for the next hour, Luo Xiao slowly recounted his past life and the immortal peach space he obtained after rebirth. After hearing his story, Ye Lan tightly embraced the person in his arms and said guiltily, “Xiao Xiao, I’m sorry.”
“Why are you apologizing to me?” Luo Xiao asked puzzledly, not seeing anything Ye Lan had done wrong.
“If only I had met you earlier. It would have been best if we were together in our previous life!” Ye Lan said dejectedly.
Luo Xiao’s heart swelled with sweetness upon hearing this. “Silly! Yezi, haven’t I told you that meeting you is the sweetest thing in my life?”
“No, you haven’t.”
“Well, I’m telling you now!” Luo Xiao slowly leaned in and pressed his lips against Ye Lan’s. “And I love you!”
“I love you too, Xiao Xiao!”
At this moment, words seemed powerless, and only this loving kiss could express the emotions in their hearts.
Although the atmosphere was perfect to further explore something below, but unfortunately time was running short. The two reluctantly had to stop.
Luo Xiao could clearly feel a hot, hard object pressing against his lower abdomen, and his own situation at the moment was not much better.
“Xiao Xiao, after this is all over…” Ye Lan’s hoarse voice reached Luo Xiao’s ear.
“Well, how about letting you have your fun this time?” Luo Xiao raised an eyebrow and said provocatively.
“Okay, you just wash it clean and wait for me!” Ye Lan moistened his slightly dry lips and accepted his provocation.
After calming down with great difficulty, the two started to face the massive primordial stones in front of them. That’s right, the building materials of this room were the primordial stones required for Luo Xiao’s peach tree space upgrade. And the reason why his spiritual power could not be used here was also because of them.
Simply put, it was because the dense spiritual power within the primordial stones exerted pressure on Luo Xiao’s spiritual power. Moreover, if they wanted to get out of here, it would become quite simple. They just needed to exhaust all the spiritual power inside these primordial stones.
So, this could be a blessing in disguise!
Luo Xiao firmly placed his right hand on the wall. He could clearly see the progress of the evolution displayed on the interface gradually increasing.
As time passed, Luo Xiao checked the watch on his hand. The pointer on it had already pointed to 5 a.m. There were still three hours before his master and the other’s attack, and the progress on the display was about 10% complete. However, with this speed, whether they could absorb enough energy before the upgrade was completed was a bit uncertain!
Nevermind, just focus on absorbing it! They could only take it one step at a time for now.
A creaking sound came, and a bright light began to grow larger through the emerging crack. Luo Xiao and Ye Lan had to close their eyes temporarily due to the dazzling light. When they opened their eyes again, they found that the room was no longer so dark. At least for Ye Lan, he could vaguely see the figures of the three people appearing at the door.
Luo Xiao checked the progress and found that there was only 0.3% left. He understood that he must find a way to delay the time, so he took the initiative to ask: “Who are you, and why did you bring us here?”
“Hmph!” The black-robed man in the front sneered without answering his question, and with a wave of his hand, he let his two subordinates step forward to grab them.
Seeing that Luo Xiao’s hand was still on the wall, Ye Lan on the side immediately reacted and stepped forward to block Luo Xiao, “Don’t come any closer! Otherwise, you’ll regret it!”
“Don’t overestimate yourselves!” The two black-robed men disdainfully glanced at him and reached out their hands to grab him.
Fortunately, Ye Lan was very agile, and the two black-robed men without using any magic could not catch him.
The three of them then engaged in a scuffle. Ye Lan was at a disadvantage as it was two against one. Just as he was about to be hit by the other person, Luo Xiao frowned and stepped forward to attack.
“Xiao Xiao?” Ye Lan saw the expression in Luo Xiao’s eyes and immediately understood. He stopped fighting the two people.
Just at this moment, the black-robed leader had also become impatient. After he joined the fight, Luo Xiao and Ye Lan were quickly captured. After putting a spirit-sealing ring on Luo Xiao to limit his spiritual power, they escorted the two of them towards the main hall.
Seeing the sacrificial altar in front of them, Luo Xiao and Ye Lan immediately realized that this was the cave they had entered before. That meant their master was preparing to attack outside the cave?
It seems that he can still lend a hand to his master! Because this so-called spirit-sealing ring is not that high-level. After his peach tree space recently upgraded, the interface showed that not only could he bring people into this space, but also the unabsorbed spiritual energy in that room had been absorbed by the space and converted into spiritual power that he could use.
This space is really considerate, isn’t it!
