Chapter 2098: A real discovery? Everyone is very excited!

~7 min read 1,252 words

Since Sister Hong had disappeared suddenly, only by retreating along the route they had just taken would they have any hope of finding where Sister Hong had gone.

And Mr. Ming's eyes were already red at this time. For him, even if Sister Hong were truly dead, he had to see the body. He absolutely could not let a person disappear on this snowy plain for no reason. At the very least, he had to let Sister Hong return to her roots.

Regarding Peter's suggestion, Yang Lu just shook her head. Peter had already wasted a lot of physical strength just now. This person's skills were indeed top-notch, but there was an essential gap between him and Yang Lu, so taking him along would not provide much help to her.

Moreover, if Peter followed, he would definitely use the previous route one hundred percent of the way forward without any changes. This was not what Yang Lu wanted to see. The key now was that Yang Lu wanted to use her own method to roughly know the route and then search backwards. That way, perhaps she could inadvertently discover something amiss.

And if they used the previous route one hundred percent to move forward, it might not be of any help at all in finding Sister Hong.

Wang Kai and Hu Bayi saw that Yang Lu was going to do such a thing alone again and hurriedly wanted to stop her, but Yang Lu waved her hand, just like her old habit.

For Yang Lu, acting alone at such a time was the most important thing. Moreover, Mr. Ming's group had not encountered any danger after scattering.

This proved that there were no snow monsters of the kind Zhang Lin had mentioned on this snowy plain. If they really existed, they might suddenly encounter them at some point as they continued to move forward.

But it definitely wouldn't be now. After confirming this point, Yang Lu became even more uninhibited. Unexpectedly, just as Yang Lu was about to set off, Mr. Ming knelt directly in front of her.

He hurriedly kowtowed and said, "Team Leader Yang, I beg you, you must bring A Hong back alive!"

Yang Lu shook her head helplessly, ignored the other party, and rushed out in the direction Peter had just mentioned.

And Mr. Ming was still kneeling on the ground at this time. For him, it seemed all hope lay with Yang Lu. If Yang Lu could not find his mistress, then everything would be in despair.

Wang Kai saw Mr. Ming's reaction and also shook his head. This time, he did not go to ridicule the other party again but asked in a low voice, "A Xiang, is this person's feeling for that Sister Hong real?"

A Xiang first nodded and then shook her head, and in the end, she didn't speak. In fact, she didn't understand this kind of thing particularly well, so she didn't know how to answer Wang Kai.

Simply put, Wang Kai did not dwell on this question. Regardless of whether this emotion was real or not, perhaps for Wang Kai, what was more important was what needed to be done later, rather than these things at the moment.

However, Wang Kai was still quite worried about Yang Lu going out alone. None of them spoke; they just waited quietly for Yang Lu to return.

After less than five minutes, Yang Lu ran back quickly. Before she even reached them, she beckoned to the crowd, and at this moment, everyone reacted.

Wang Kai and Hu Bayi rushed out first, carrying all the equipment. Yang Lu's meaning was very clear; they had a task ahead, otherwise, she wouldn't have let everyone go over. Even if there was a discovery, if they needed manpower to save Sister Hong, taking one or two people would be completely sufficient, plus some simple equipment.

Unless the pit was truly bottomless, but if that situation had occurred, Yang Lu would not have needed to express her thoughts to everyone in such a way.

Wang Kai and the others didn't care whether Sister Hong was safe, but knowing there was a discovery ahead was what truly made them happy. Originally, Chu Yi had said he found the first location where the map was, and they had held expectations for this matter, but they didn't expect Chu Yi to be unable to lock onto the specific location.

And Chu Yi himself had never thought about taking the Second Archaeological Team to search for this place everywhere. Perhaps from his perspective, even if they found it, it would have no meaning. Since the Second Archaeological Team was going to the Dragon Peak, finding these things before reaching the Dragon Peak was not important.

But for Yang Lu, these things were indeed relatively more important, because they could not achieve it in one step. Therefore, the Second Archaeological Team continued to move forward, relying ultimately on clues obtained step by step, and using these clues to find the next things.

In fact, taking a step back, if they had found the E Luo Hai City or the Kunlun Divine Palace or the Nine-Story Demon Tower without these clues, but relatively speaking, without the things discovered in advance, or under the premise that such things could become keys, they wouldn't be able to enter even if they saw the gate in front of them.

This was like finding that Ming Tower in the Insect Valley before. If it weren't for discovering the wreckage of the crashed plane that led them to find that coffin, thereby obtaining the scepter-shaped key, everyone wouldn't have entered that gate directly. There was an inevitable causal relationship between these before and after.

If one regarded the exploration of tombs as a straight line, then one would have made a principled error; it was bound to be very tortuous.

This was why they had delayed for such a long time at the Prince of Gumo's tomb when going to the Ancient City of Jingjue. Everything that happened later had proven to everyone that the things verified by those few murals had brought them great help in going to the Ancient City of Jingjue later.

If it weren't for the analysis through the murals, or the results obtained from the evidence left by the Prince of Gumo, they wouldn't have directly accepted the concept of the Imaginary Space.

Moreover, Zhang Lin originally didn't know as much about the concept of the Imaginary Space as Wang Canghai. It was also through these murals, and the things that happened later in the Ancient City of Jingjue, that he fully mastered the Imaginary Space.

If it weren't for this, it was very likely that the Second Archaeological Team would have been blocked directly within the honeycomb outside the Ancient City of Jingjue.

Everything at the moment indicated that they had found the absolutely correct direction. At least as long as the first identification point was discovered, it was better than anything else for Yang Lu.

Even if the process of their discovery was entirely due to coincidence, Yang Lu could still analyze some situations herself after going down to that location and seeing the corresponding things inside.

For Yang Lu, the reason the first location was important was because they had never established any concept for the Kunlun Divine Palace, including the things they needed to find later, and now this opportunity to establish a concept had arrived.
