209 I’ll Kill Him Before Letting Anything Happen to Myself

Xiang Nan’s eyes widened, unable to hide his surprise. Even so, he did not make a single sound. Du Yue looked at him and saw that although he looked shocked, he had kept He Xing’s instructions in mind and did not make a sound.

Du Yue was quite satisfied with this guide who had a steady personality.

After He Xing finished off the four people at the door, he continued to approach the door. Du Yue nodded at Xiang Nan, signaling him to follow. She would be in charge of the rear. The three of them quickly walked to the door and looked at it. They found that the iron door was not locked and could be opened with a light push. Du Yue’s brows rose slightly at the sight. Was this king too arrogant and did not believe that anyone could find this place, or was this not the entrance to the underground city? No matter the reason, they had to go in and take a look.

He Xing had already walked in, followed by Xiang Nan and Du Yue. Although their line of sight was still blocked by the door, they could still vaguely make out some things because of the few lights hanging on the wall. After walking for a few meters, they saw an underground entrance. The surroundings were eerily quiet as if there were only the three of them. They walked down the entrance and looked at the road under their feet with the help of the faint light on the wall.

The lights were dim, and although they could not see the road clearly, they could hide better. If there were bright lights here, it would be a problem. After they finished walking down the stairs, four more forks appeared in front of them.

The four intersections looked almost exactly the same to the naked eye, and there were no signs. No one knew where these four roads led to. He Xing turned around and asked Du Yue, “Which way are we going?” He Xing had never been here before, so he did not know the way. It was the same for Du Yue. He Xing was merely asking her to choose a path based on her instincts. He trusted Du Yue more than he trusted himself.

Du Yue did not waste any time. She pointed to the road on the left. “Let’s try this!”

He Xing was just about to nod when Xiang Nan said in a deep voice, “Thank you for bringing me in. Let’s part ways here.”

Du Yue and He Xing were puzzled. “Where can you go if we separate here?”

Xiang Nan pointed at the road on the far right. “I have a feeling that the person I’m looking for is in this direction.”

Upon hearing this, Du Yue and He Xing exchanged glances. Xiang Nan did not wait for them to speak and continued, “Just go ahead. Don’t worry about me. This is the path that I’ve chosen. No matter what the end of the path is, I won’t have any regrets.”

Seeing how determined he was, Du Yue and He Xing stopped trying to persuade him. “Take care of yourself,” they said.

Under the dim yellow light, Xiang Nan’s eyes shone with hope. “I’ll make sure I’ll kill that person before letting anything happen to me.” After he finished speaking, he nodded slightly to the two of them to express his grat.i.tude and turned to leave. He walked very quickly, and it did not take long for his figure to disappear in the dim light.

Naturally, Du Yue and He Xing did not waste any time and walked down the left path. Without outsiders, the two of them naturally had no scruples when talking. “Why did you choose this path?” He Xing asked curiously.

Du Yue smiled. “Isn’t it a little too late for you to ask me now? In fact, this is just my intuition. Just like what Xiang Nan said, this is the path I’ve chosen.”

He Xing reached out to hold Du Yue’s hand. “No matter what you choose, I’ll always believe in you and be by your side.” Du Yue turned to look at him. Under the dim yellow light, the two of them could still see the light in each other’s eyes. The two of them smiled tacitly and continued to walk forward.

The road was not short, but they would find a light bulb hanging on the wall every once in a while. Although it was not too bright, it was better than nothing. The two of them did not see anyone else along the way. It was only when they were close to the corner that they heard some movement.

It was a man who was complaining about something. “F*ck, we’re not guard dogs. Why are we asked to guard here every day?!”

“We’re told to guard it, so just guard it. Why do you have so much to say?!”

“You don’t know how it feels when you can’t eat the meat that’s right beside your mouth. I’m going crazy!”

“Don’t be silly. Everyone here is one of his. Let’s not be delusional!”

“You’re a hypocrite! I don’t believe you don’t have any thoughts when a group of women is right in front of you but you don’t have any thoughts!”
