Chapter 2683: A Swordsman in White
He knew?
“What is this place?” Ling Hao asked the question everyone wanted to ask.
Shao Xiao hesitated.
Ling Hao said, “Captain, we don’t have any other choice. If we want to get out, we’ll have to go into this mountain. If you know something, and if you’re at liberty to reveal it, could you please tell us?”
Shao Xiao nodded. “It’s not a secret. I read about this mine in a school magazine. It’s supposed to have existed for as long as the school has.
“Lu Mingzong, the founder and first princ.i.p.al of Imperial College, mined spiritual stones here and used them to set up the college.
“But because of geological changes and some other reasons, the Secret Essence Mine was buried underground, never to be found again.
“Who would have thought we would run into that mine here today?”
“Is it the Secret Essence Mine which shocked the entire continent?” Ling Hao asked curiously.
Shao Xiao nodded. “Yes, it shocked a lot of people. 100,000 tunnels were built to harvest the stones, and at least a million miners were buried in these mountains.”
…
He looked at his teammates. “The exit out of the mine is inside the mountain.”
That was to say, they could never get out if they didn’t go inside.
What a b.u.mmer.
“Do you feel cold?” someone asked.
It was Cheng Fang, the weakest of them all.
“Cold? How can it be cold? We’re students of Cla.s.s B; we should be used to the cold weather… Achoo!” Ling Hao sneezed before he could finish.
...
His cheeks flushed from the cold, and he couldn’t stop sneezing.
“What’s happening? Why is it so cold all of a sudden?!”
Someone shouted at that moment.
“Look!”
Everyone looked up at the sky.
They saw two people in the air.
One was a woman in a purple dress.
Her hair was so long that it touched the ground. She had a flawless complexion, but her lips were bright red, and her eyebrows were tiny dots.
Feng Wu saw her face in the distance.
Something about that woman’s appearance made her uneasy.
The other one was a swordsman in a white robe.
He was in his early twenties and carried a long sword on his back. His robe flapped in the wind, giving him an ethereal look.
Neither of them spoke, but Feng Wu could feel their terrifying energy.
It was so intimidating!
What were their cultivation levels?
They were at least Spiritual Kings!
The swordsman drew out his sword.
Feng Wu’s stomach lurched.
s.h.i.+t!
She felt that her life was under threat.
Feng Wu had always had good instincts.
Therefore!
“Run! Get into the mine! Now!”
She had never urged anyone like this before.
It was obvious that Feng Wu was now the leader of this team, so everyone rushed into the cave as soon as she gave the command.
The next second!
