Ye Jingchen paused, but he didn"t say anything and just ordered guards to give them two shovels.
Su Zheng had already joined the team. With claws sharper than any shovel, he exerted strenuous efforts to dig up the ground.
"Haha!"
A voice as weak as a whisper came from the mountain path, "It"s useless. You can"t save them... By the time you dig a hundred feet down, they will have already been smothered to death."
The woman in red cast a chilling glance at the gray-robed man, "Alas, you"re not dead yet? I really admire you! You just don"t die no matter how much you"ve been beaten or burned!"
On the mountain path, the gray-robed man"s body had already been scorched. Jun Fengling had sliced off the flesh of his body piece by piece, and the white bones were exposed. Even so, he was still gasping and feebly glaring at Jun Fengling.
"What are you doing here?"
At this moment, a light voice came from behind the crowd. A woman was standing there, a confused look in her eyes.
Hearing the familiar voice, Long Fei unconsciously dropped the shovel in his hand. He stiffly turned his head only to see the green-robed woman slowly walking to him, and he felt a lump in his throat.
"Ma... Master..."
"Long Fei, what are you doing here?" asked Fu Sheng, frowning.
Long Fei suddenly s.h.i.+vered, and a look of excitement appeared on his face. Then he rushed recklessly towards Fu Sheng. At this moment, everyone could feel his excitement...
"Master."
Running to the front of Fu Sheng, Long Fei stopped, his voice shaking, "Are... are you all right?"
Fu Sheng nodded slightly, "Don"t worry. I"m fine."
"By the way, Master, what about my lord? Didn"t they come out with you? And why did you come back here alone?"
Jun Fengling immediately put down her shovel and turned her eyes to Fu Sheng.
Fu Sheng slightly raised the corners of her lips, "There happens to be a tunnel under the ground here, so we came out through that tunnel. Your lord and Yun Xiao…have left."
Left?
Jun Fengling paused for a moment and then she said with a determined look, "Brother Ye, let"s go! They must be still around!"
"Wait a minute," Thinking of something, Ye Jingchen looked around and finally fixed his eyes on a middle-aged man in the crowd, "Would you please paint their portraits for me?"
Jun Fengling paused. Yes, she forgot that they hadn"t seen Yun Xiao and Yun Luofeng! Without their portraits, how could they find them?
The middle-aged man s.h.i.+vered, " I... I can"t paint."
"Really? But I remember you are from the Jia Family, a family famous for their painting skill!" Ye Jingchen smiled coldly. "You think I"ll believe you? In order to save time, you should go with us, and I"ll let you leave when you finish the painting. However, if you don"t paint them as they really look, I think you should be aware of what our Ye Family is capable of."
The middle-aged man looked frightened, but he didn"t dare to refuse him. He swallowed and asked, "Will you really let me leave after I paint their portraits?"
Ye Jingchen nodded slightly, "Yes."
"Okay, then I"ll go with you!"
