Chapter 685: The Black Goat Leads the Charge, Qihuang's Treasure Vault

"Hehe." Chen Chuyang approached with a full-face evil smile; Zhuge Ruolan stepped back, her body reacting naturally—Chen Chuyang's smile right now was too lethal.

It was too lewd, shocking her mind, leaving her unable to retreat.

"You... don't mess around, I'm not ready yet, I..."

Zhuge Ruolan stammered, hemmed and hawed, not daring to face Chen Chuyang.

Chen Chuyang came closer, hand on her shoulder; Zhuge Ruolan knew she was done for, about to be... by this person.

She was still an untouched maiden, never... touched by a man; Chen Chuyang was a man relatively familiar to her, she had feelings for him, but to take that step directly was too fast.

"That's too fast, I'm not mentally prepared, otherwise..."

Chen Chuyang flicked her forehead, annoyed: "What are you thinking? Can't you think of something good? You always think about messy nonsense."

"It hurts." Zhuge Ruolan looked at Chen Chuyang, wronged and pitiful, her eyes full of grievance, tears about to fall.

Obviously, she misunderstood Chen Chuyang, her face flushed, she dared not meet his gaze.

Chen Chuyang crossed his arms, lightly said: "Prepare in advance, watch the entrance of Qihuang Bao Ku, seal the news, don't let others know."

Zhuge Ruolan spread her hands: "I'm afraid not, Chen Chuyang, the entrance of Qihuang Bao Ku is in Wangdu; Qi Ruohua will surely know, our every move is under her surveillance, hiding it from her is unlikely."

"Others are also likely to guess; even if I return near Wangdu, I cannot stop them."

"My strength is limited, I'm no match for them."

Her strength is limited, she basically cannot... stop it; she can only come back a step earlier to tell Chen Chuyang this news, letting him prepare in advance; other matters she cannot control.

The emergence of Qihuang Bao Ku will soon be known by those forces; it cannot be concealed.

Heishanyang spoke then: "Indeed, kid, once Qihuang Bao Ku opens, the commotion will be huge; trying to hide it from heaven is unlikely."

"If we join forces with Qi Ruohua, perhaps we can reduce the number of people entering."

"However, this would lack the blood offering."

"This won't work, neither will that."

"Blood offering, needs to be fully prepared."

"Best to send a batch of people to go die, to go in early to scout, avoiding danger."

Chen Chuyang frowned, looking at Heishanyang, said: "Since you came out from inside, you should know the situation inside."

"Kid, Qihuang Bao Ku is vast; I was asleep the whole time initially, upon waking I left Qihuang Bao Ku immediately, so I'm not very familiar with it."

"At most I know a bit about some places."

Heishanyang spoke truthfully, not daring to guarantee.

"Such matters, once something goes wrong, are very dangerous."

"Even if it's Chen Chuyang, he would encounter danger; Heishanyang does not want Chen Chuyang to go in."

"Actually, you don't need to go in; you can have Qi Ruohua's side send people in, then exchange the good things they get with you, no need to personally risk it."

"This way, you'd just have to spend a bit more elixir; to you, it's nothing."

"The safest method, avoids danger and can also escape danger."

Heishanyang also does not want to return to Qihuang Bao Ku, although it always wanted to go back, that was before.

Now, its thinking has changed; staying by Chen Chuyang's side, its cultivation recovers quickly, not slower than inside Qihuang Bao Ku.

If so, it no longer has a need to go back.

With Chen Chuyang's those elixirs, Heishanyang believes it will recover soon; then returning later is not too late.

"Chen Chuyang, I actually think this is best as well."

Zhuge Ruolan echoed, agreeing with Heishanyang's words.

Qihuang Bao Ku is too dangerous; over the years, the legends she knows all indicate its danger.

"Not ordinary danger; let's put it this way, Heavenly Heart Sect is dangerous, Qihuang Bao Ku is several times more dangerous than it."

"It's not that no one has gone in before; a thousand years ago, people also entered, and they all died."

"Those people were all geniuses from the major sects; they all perished there, none came out alive."

"Since then, Qihuang Bao Ku has become a forbidden zone for those sects; many sects monitor its opening, naturally they also want to test a bit; the fact that previous people died doesn't mean they will also die."

"Indeed, inside Qihuang Bao Ku there are too many treasures—techniques, elixirs, spiritual medicines, and various heavenly materials and earthly treasures; finding even a little can let one soar."

"How many people have sacrificed everything for a chance."

"Danger, it's nothing."

Chen Chuyang waved his hand: "We'll talk about it later."

Heishanyang sighed, knowing Chen Chuyang was determined to go in, not knowing why he was so resolute this time.

"Kid, if you insist on going in, you can bring me along."

"I'll accompany you on this adventure once; what's the first-generation Qihuang to me? I'll still make him kneel."

Chen Chuyang raised his eyebrows: "You're not afraid?"

"Tch, I've never feared anyone in my life."

Heishanyang raised its head, unruly and defiant.

"It's still the same as before, unchanged."

Chen Chuyang laughed loudly: "Hahaha, good, then I'll bring you along; you just wait for me to take you galloping through Qihuang Bao Ku."

"Good."

"……"

"Time, in a blink, it was three days later."

Longshe Shan fell into silence; Chen Chuyang took Heishanyang and Zhuge Ruolan away from Longshe Shan, the little carp remained in the fish pond, continuing to evolve.

The Five-Colored Salamander's whereabouts unknown; Shang Hongxue stared at Shang Hongchen and Tianlian Zhenren at home; before leaving, Chen Chuyang repeatedly urged, don't let those two go down the mountain, others may go down, but only those two may not.

"Just in case, Chen Chuyang specially ordered Zhuge Gui to watch Tianlian Zhenren; if they dare to leave, Zhuge Gui can act."

Shang Yue, along with them, went down the mountain and returned to the Shang Clan.

Longshe Shan fell into silence, just as before.

No one knew, nor could anyone discover, that Chen Chuyang and a few others had left.

After another day, the two of them and the sheep appeared outside Wangdu.

Chen Chuyang let go, and Zhuge Ruolan felt dizzy, almost falling.

The black goat also had a hard time, barely steadying its feet, gave Chen Chuyang a white look, and complained: "Kid, before the next spatial jump, could you give a heads-up? My body almost got wrecked."

Its stomach was about to vomit up bitter fluid, but it managed to hold back, otherwise it would have lost face.

Zhuge Ruolan also complained: "Chen Chuyang, can you be a bit gentler?"

Whoosh.

Chen Chuyang clapped his hands, pinched Zhuge Ruolan's cheek, and said: "We're all cultivators; why worry about these details? Rest assured, I have it figured out—I won't let you die in the spatial turbulence."

Black goat: "……"

Zhuge Ruolan: "……"

As long as we don't die, you're deliberately trying to embarrass us.

The person and the sheep were furious, but there was nothing they could do.
