Xiao Yufan suddenly felt a twinge of envy toward experts at the Spirit Communication stage, who could hover in midair without any external aid, exuding a certain air of immortality…
If he possessed such abilities, would Xiao Yufan still worry about his current predicament? Perhaps in just a few breaths’ time, he could reach the heart of this mysterious place. But now, he could only indulge in daydreams.
The deserted island wasn’t large at all; Xiao Yufan could clearly hear the rolling waves. If an ordinary person were trapped here, isolated and helpless, they would surely perish.
Yet no one present was ordinary. The weakest among them were young experts with one foot already in the Prenatal Realm, so naturally, they wouldn’t be trapped on a mere island.
With his Prenatal Realm strength, Xiao Yufan could, with some assistance, leap from one scattered islet to another and reach the inner region. However, whether the others could do the same remained uncertain.
From the snippets of conversation with Master Ning, Xiao Yufan sensed that this mysterious place was filled with danger—not just from the environment, but more importantly, from people. One could never be sure if someone might stab them in the back.
Moreover, the top ten martial artists of the Ancient Martial Arts Assembly already formed a group, so if any mishaps occurred within this mysterious area, they could support each other. Otherwise, Xiao Yufan wouldn’t bother wasting so much breath.
He and Cheng Ying could easily leave this place, although it might cost them a bit more energy. In a place where danger could strike at any moment, expending unnecessary energy was extremely unwise.
Soon, Xiao Yufan devised several feasible plans, only to discard them one by one. After all, this was an uncharted mysterious space—nobody knew what might happen, so caution was necessary.
Cheng Ying hadn’t spoken a single word the entire time, staying quietly by his side like a dutiful little wife, prompting Ye Kong to smirk in disdain. That guy sure had good luck.
Even Wang Yuxuan’s beautiful eyes hadn’t left Xiao Yufan’s profile, causing a wave of jealousy among the men. Truly, comparing people could kill, and goods could be discarded—how could two beautiful women surround one man without considering their feelings?
“If you can’t come up with a good idea, I wonder how you’ll face us all…”
Natu Tiangong shot Xiao Yufan a resentful glance, inwardly sneering. He was a normal man, after all, and seeing two beautiful women not spare him a glance naturally made him feel bitter and resentful.
Naturally, he redirected this resentment toward Xiao Yufan. However, Xiao Yufan had long since become indifferent to such feelings—no matter how many reasons Natu had to resent him, Xiao Yufan wouldn’t care.
After thinking for a while, Xiao Yufan still hadn’t settled on a foolproof plan. If only he could fly there, he wouldn’t be so troubled. Indeed, his current strength remained a serious drawback.
Seeing Xiao Yufan frowning intensely, Natu Tiangong’s schadenfreude only grew stronger. Let him keep showing off; now he was slapping his own face. Since his humiliation, this was the first time Natu had felt such satisfaction.
“If I help him out a bit at this moment, would he appreciate me even more? Hehe!”
Wang Yuxuan’s long lashes fluttered slightly as she gazed at Xiao Yufan, her lips curling into a sly, fox-like smile.
Thinking this, her melodious voice rang out…
“I might have a way to leave here, although it will require some effort!”
As the sweet voice faded, Xiao Yufan’s face immediately lit up with a flicker of hope. This girl really was as reliable as Ying’er had said—truly a trustworthy ally. While he hadn’t yet figured out a good plan, she already had an idea.
A bit of effort meant nothing. As long as they could escape this cursed place, even if it meant offering himself in marriage, he wouldn’t mind—his thoughts briefly straying into mischief…
