Su Luo scratched her head and glanced over to her side.

By then, there were already 4 people gathered beside her.

Two of them were men, and the other two were women.

Amongst them, a callous-looking young male was gripping his sword with both hands, and swept a glance at Su Luo arrogantly: “Leng Qi.”

The other one looked as gentle as jade, and said in a nice refined tone: “I’m Chu Yang, the leader of the team this time.”

The impression Chu Yang gave was similar to the meaning of his name—as warm as the sunlight—and his smile gave the feeling of a spring breeze.

Of the two ladies, the one that had a divlike persona gave Su Luo an arrogant glance and said: “Call me Senior Sister Yu.”

The other one was a little loli in a fiery red dress, appearing cute and lively, warm and enthusiastic: “I’m Xiao Luo, and this is my first time taking part in a mission, I hope you guys can be forgiving with my shortcomings.”

Su Luo resignedly asked again: “Right now…… can I still go back?”

“You’re referring to……” Xiao Luo’s eyes were like a twinkling pair of stars.

“Giving up on the mission……” Su Luo said dejectedly.

“Ha!” Leng Qi cast a sidelong glance towards Su Luo, and mockery crept up the edges of his eyes, “You haven’t even begun the mission and you’re already scared and want to give up? You are truly ridiculous.”

As the Captain, Chu Yang stepped in with a smile to resolve the tense situation. He shook his head and said towards Su Luo. “After you enter, there are only two ways to leave.”

Su Luo was immediately all ears and ready to listen.

Chu Yang said seriously: “One way to get out is staying the entire duration of the month, and after the month is over, the Gates of the Temple Of Abyss will open. You can leave then. The second way is completing the mission and retrieving the Eternal Heart, and the Gates of the Temple of Abyss will also open then.”

Su Luo gave a tacit agreement with a nod of her head. It also meant that, no matter what, I had to complete this mission. Since I couldn’t return for the time being, then let’s just focus on the task at hand. I would give my best effort at strengthening my own abilities, then I would have the chance to go and look for Nangong Liuyun in the future.

Although Su Luo had Nangong Liuyun on her mind, she trusted him with her life. She could wait for him. She wouldn't entirely believe the words of that woman, and only Nangong Liuyun’s personal reply would satisfy her.

The Temple of Abyss.

“Where are we? How come we can't see any Temple?” Xiao Luo curiously looked to the left and right, her rosy mouth pouting slightly.

Chu Yang took out a map and held it in his hand, smiled faintly, and opened his mouth: “This is the top level of the abyss, which is just below the ground, and as for the Temple, it is in the deepest areas of the Abyss. We can only advance towards it one step at a time.”

“What you mean by advancing is………” Xiao Luo was like a curious little baby.

Right then, Su Luo’s eyes flashed as she sensed something dangerous approaching them; this danger was not from just one person,or two, but a group of people……

“Incoming trouble.” A curved bow suddenly appeared in Senior Sister Yu’s right hand. She propped the bow against her collarbone, aimed forward, and prepared to fire.

Su Luo nodded her head: ”Our luck is really quite good; we met a patrol group as soon as we entered, and we have even been targeted.”

Xiao Luo blinked her eyes as she seemed yet not to understand Su Luo’s statement.

Senior Sister Yu gave Su Luo a few thoughtful looks.

Right then, as if to prove Su Luo’s previous statement, a storm of footsteps echoed from the front.

“Oh my G.o.d! Look at the body armour they’re wearing, and the pikes they’re holding; they really are patrolling soldiers!” Xiao Luo shouted, speeding over to hide behind Su Luo.

There were really quite a lot of patrol soldiers in this group.

At a quick glance, it seemed to number at least in the hundreds or even thousands. One could only see them forming ranks one after another, and rus.h.i.+ng towards them.
