Wang Hailin’s arrival was obviously not a surprise to Luo Qingyu. Although on the surface, the relationship between the two seemed calm, only they knew what they were calculating in their hearts.
*Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!* As these people began to form teams or retreat, several more whistling sounds rang out continuously, and several figures darted in from the periphery.
“It seems I’ve come late?” A clear voice suddenly rang out in this world. The voice was extremely beautiful, as if containing a special magic that made people’s hearts inexplicably comfortable.
People saw a graceful and beautiful figure, flying over and landing not far from Luo Qingyu and Wang Hailin.
Several more figures landed behind this beautiful figure.
The woman standing at the front wore a light-coloured plain dress. Her eyebrows were curved, her oval face was as white as white jade, her nose was straight, her lips were red, and her teeth were crystal clear. Her hair was as smooth as silk. What was more eye-catching was her pair of beautiful eyes that looked like coloured glaze. Once people looked at them, they would be entranced and unable to extricate themselves.
Her skin was as white and delicate as snow, her figure was tall and graceful, and when she walked, she was like a swaying lotus flower. She was perfect, and even a plain dress would not be able to conceal her well defined curves.
A group of people breathing turned heavy and they quietly looked at her. The appearance of such a country ending beauty was truly like a fairy walking out of a painting.
Although she was dressed plainly, Qin Yichen was surprised to find that there was a faint air of nobility between this woman’s brows.
Obviously, this woman had an extraordinary background.
Because even Luo Qingyu and Wang Hailin, who were known as the Three Outstanding Prodigies of the Heavenly Unicorn Dynasty, could not help but change their expressions when they saw this woman arrive.
Perhaps they were not afraid of this woman’s strength, but rather, they held a sense of awe towards the power behind her.
The five people behind the woman were not very old, just in their twenties or thirties. Judging from their wealthy attire, they did not look like the woman’s guards, but rather, this woman’s suitors.
“The people have all been taken by the two Young Masters. So, this Young Mistress can only pick up what the two Young Masters have left behind.” The beauty smiled, her voice still so pleasing that it made people’s bodies go soft.
With such a woman, if one could spend even a day with her, one could die without regrets.
“Why has Miss Lu also come out? Aren’t you afraid your Family will worry about your safety?” Wang Hailin, with the air of a carefree scholar, flicked his fan and asked with a smile.
“Why don’t you come with me, Miss Lu? This way, we can look after each other.”
Luo Qingyu, on the other side, also appeared enthusiastic. When he looked at the woman, a hint of possessiveness flashed in his eyes.
“This little one would rather not trouble the two Young Masters. The two Young Masters are people with great ambitions, this little one only seeks to gain some experience.” The woman gently declined their offers.
“Since that’s the case, I won’t force Miss Lu.” After exchanging a glance with Wang Hailin, Luo Qingyu began to lead those willing to follow him down the cliff.
Qin Yichen stood not far away, still motionless.
[Miss Lu, huh? This is getting interesting…] A faint smile curved his lips, and his footsteps also moved towards the graceful Miss Lu.
The two men in front were like hungry wolves. Following them would only result in being eaten without even bones left. In this case, if he could follow this Miss Lu, it seemed the chances would be greater.
Entering the ruin alone was definitely not safe. Otherwise, with the arrogance of Luo Qingyu and Wang Hailin, how could they possibly be so polite in asking for help?
They clearly wanted those people to become their cannon fodder.
“Miss Lu, may I follow you down to gain some experience?” Qin Yichen bowed to the woman with a smile.
“Who do you think you are? How dare you follow Miss Lu?” The few people behind the woman, who dared not make a sound in front of Luo Qingyu and Wang Hailin, immediately mocked him.
“You are just a commoner, a lowly person!”
“Brother He, why bother with such a nobody, it’s not worth it.”
Qin Yichen seemed to not hear their mockery, just smiling faintly at the woman, his face showing neither fear nor deliberate flattery. He was like a green pine, not outstanding, but naturally proud when he stood tall.
“Alright!” To the surprise of those people, the woman named Miss Lu actually agreed to Qin Yichen’s request.
“Miss Lu…” Those few people looked at her in astonishment, but seeing that her mind had been made up, they all looked at Qin Yichen with hostility.
For some reason, they just did not like the look of Qin Yichen.
The group of seven prepared to descend the cliff after Luo Qingyu and Wang Hailin’s people had all gone down. While climbing, Qin Yichen also observed the five people following this woman. He was surprised to find that among these five people, two were actually at the Martial Grandmasters, and the other two were Martial Masters.
[No wonder they dare to follow this woman to the Black Demon Mountain Range.]
At the bottom of Black Wood Cliff, the cold wind whistled, chilling people to their Souls. The white bones scattered around made it even more creepy.
Down here, it really had the slight flavour of Hell.
After coming down, Qin Yichen still maintained his composure, and even began to observe his surroundings.
Miss Lu’s pretty face turned slightly pale. Obviously, she was not used to this kind of environment. The two Martial Grandmasters also remained relatively calm, but the remaining three were clearly not doing well.
They were born in wealthy and noble Families, and their current cultivation at this age was completely built up by their Families’ resources. Usually, they only used their cultivation to bully those weaker than themselves. Now, facing such a creepy scene, their legs were constantly shaking, and they could barely walk.
[Is that the ancient ruin?] Soon, Qin Yichen discovered the location of the ruin.
The position was very special, right at the bottom of the cliff clinging to the rock face. If viewed from above, it would definitely not be visible, because the tip of Black Wood Cliff protruded, and the entire cliff stood at an angle. So, everything at the bottom of the cliff was blocked from view from above.
[Could the ruin be inside of the mountain?”] Looking at the building that was almost embedded into the rock face, Qin Yichen was quite surprised.
This ruin was actually quite large in scale, arranged in a circular pattern at the bottom of the cliff. There were steps, and on these steps were stone pillars. These stone pillars were very large, with the two in the middle probably requiring two or three adults to fully circle it.
The stone pillars were spaced about ten metres apart, and on top of the pillars were carved patterns similar to Totems. However, due to the passage of time, they had almost completely weathered away, and the patterns were completely blurry. Even Qin Yichen could not distinguish what Totems they originally were.
In the centre front, a stone platform protruded, on which was placed a huge stone tripod, perhaps used for sacrificial purposes.
Behind the stone tripod was the main entrance of the ruin. At this time, the main door was already open, and it was dark inside. The scene ahead was unclear, but there were some torches flickering.
Although everything had already decayed with time, it was not difficult to see from this scale the former glory of this place.
“Could this be an Ancient Divine Temple?” After observing for a while, Qin Yichen’s pupils slightly contracted.
