The Ace Bodyguard

As a Ranker, Wang Xiao could understand the thoughts of the Divine Monarch. Although his strength was not as good as the Divine Monarch's, and although he was insignificant compared to the Divine Monarch, Wang Xiao was still an expert of this era. If he was going to change his identity, and had a treasure that he needed to leave behind for his descendants, Wang Xiao would still consider one thing. A person who didn't dare to take risks, even if he obtained a powerful treasure, would only be wasting it. It was impossible for him to achieve much and become an expert.    

    

Since he had already decided to walk a path where it was unlikely he would die, Wang Xiao stepped out and took the lead to walk into the passage. He had an expression that said he was not afraid of death. After Wang Xiao stepped in, Lver also followed closely behind, following closely behind Wang Xiao, stepping onto the path.    

    

This might be a road of no return, a path that could lead to the deaths of two people. However, they had already decided that life and death depended on wealth. "Since they had already made such a choice, they would not regret it in the slightest. Even if it was a most dangerous places, they would not be afraid of it.    

    

Even if it was a narrow escape, the two of them would not turn back. This path that was almost certain to die was no different from the one from before. It was still as flat and its surroundings were still the stone walls of the Green Mountain Cave. Wang Xiao even suspected that this passage was not dangerous at all. Could it be that the four words written in front of this passage were actually alarmist?    

    

They had already been in the tunnel for a long time, and Wang Xiao and Lver were hungry and thirsty. Before entering the corridor, they had prepared some water and wild fruits. Although the wild fruits were difficult to eat and they were bitter but it was better than not having food at all. They could at least fill their stomachs.    

    

"Lver, why don't we take a rest?" Wang Xiao said.    

    

Lver wiped the sweat on her forehead, then nodded and said: "Okay, I'm also very tired, so let's rest."    

    

After sitting down, Wang Xiao handed the bamboo tube over to Lver. Have some water. "    

    

"Thank you."    

    

After thanking her, Lver took the bamboo tube and drank two mouthfuls. Because she didn't bring much water, she was very saving. As for wild fruits, Lver had only eaten two or three of them, and then she told Wang Xiao that he wasn't hungry.    

    

Wang Xiao was very clear, it was not that Lver was not hungry, it was not that her appetite was small, even if a girl's appetite was small, it was impossible for her to only eat that little. The reason why she said she wasn't hungry was because she wanted to save some wild fruits. She wanted to eat a few more.    

    

Don't look at how Lver called herself a fool all day and acted indifferent to everything. However, from these details, Wang Xiao could tell that she was very concerned about him and that he was not a selfish woman. This kind of person is worth Wang Xiao treating well for her.    

    

Wang Xiao also casually ate two or three wild fruits before saying to Lver: "I'm full too, and I'm not hungry either."    

    

"Idiot, you're a man, how can you eat so little?" Lver's eyes revealed her concern for him.    

    

Wang Xiao smiled slightly: "I lack exercise, so my appetite is not good."    

    

"No, you have to eat more. You're a man after all." Lver said in a serious tone.    

    

He never thought that Lver, who was indifferent to him all day and called him an idiot, would actually care about him this much. So it turned out that she had been indifferent to him in the past, and that her words had always been false. She had always been intentionally angering him, making him angry on purpose.    

    

"Maybe Green always likes to base her happiness on other people's sadness." Lver, you treat me so well, thank you for your concern. " Wang Xiao said to Lver happily.    

    

Lver disapproved: "Who cares about you, I don't care about a fool like you, it's just because there are only the two of us here, so I have to take care of you, if you fall, you will definitely become a burden, I do not want to be implicated by you, and be implicated by you."    

    

Sigh!    

    

Wang Xiao let out a helpless sigh. Just a moment ago, he received some warmth from Lver, and felt that Lver was very concerned about him, but he never thought that she would suddenly say such a thing.    

    

As if she knew what Wang Xiao was thinking, Lver smiled slightly, and said as if she was coaxing a child, "Alright, don't be angry, I was lying to you." As she spoke, Lver also passed a wild fruit to Wang Xiao, telling him to eat more.    

    

Holding this fruit, Wang Xiao was a little touched. If it was the outside world, even if someone invited him to eat delicacies, Wang Xiao would probably not be grateful, nor would he feel that it was anything extraordinary, or even high-end. But at this moment, this small wild fruit surpassed the delicacies of the sea and the mountains.    

    

"Lver, once we're out of here, I'll treat you to some delicacies from the sea and mountains. Whatever you want to say." Wang Xiao said seriously.    

    

Lver joked: "I really can eat, aren't you afraid that I'll eat you to the end?"    

    

Wang Xiao said: "Even if you could eat so much, even if you were a glutton, you still wouldn't be able to eat me to the end."    

    

"You're the foodie! Not only are you a foodie, you're also a foodie! You're an idiot, an idiot, a pig!" Lver said while smiling.    

    

Wang Xiao was completely speechless, he did not expect Lver to be so powerful, to actually be able to make him speechless. She used to call himself a fool, but now she had a few new lines to say, "Food," "rice bucket," and "pigs."    

    

His beautiful image had already been completely destroyed in Lver's heart. It seemed that if he wanted to have a higher status in Lver's heart in the future, he would have to continue to work hard. After resting for less than half an hour, Wang Xiao stood up and decided to continue moving forward. As for Lver, he also wanted to continue moving forward.    

    

The Night Pearl was still emitting a cold and white light, and that cold light still covered the entire path. Lver and Wang Xiao walked shoulder to shoulder, the two of them seemed to be extremely close, and were close friends, but the two of them could be considered to be sharing hardships, which was why they had long since become close friends, and surpassed their friends.    

    

The pitch black passageway gave off a very depressing feeling. In the silent passageway, only Wang Xiao and Lver's irregular yet heavy footsteps could be heard. Under the white radiance of the Night Pearl, the silhouettes of the two people could also be seen.    

    

If it wasn't for her accompanying, being alone and boring for so many days would have definitely driven Wang Xiao crazy, especially in this damned place, where he didn't know when he would be able to walk out. This was what caused people to be the most anxious and worried.    

    

As they continued forward, the tunnel became wider. The walls on both sides of the tunnel were rough and uneven. This passage was not man-made and was naturally formed. In such a secluded place, in such a secluded place, there must be treasures.    

    

However, before this, there were already people who entered the tunnel. It was unknown whether or not those people took the treasures inside. If the treasures here were taken away, then this time's efforts would be in vain. Furthermore, Wang Xiao was also a little worried, the experts who had entered the tunnel had not left, they were still there.    

    

If the experts were still in the tunnel, it would be good if the opponent was not strong. However, if the opponent was strong, it would be dangerous for Lver and herself. If the opponent was an expert of Qi Master Stage, their strength would be equivalent to Fifth Elder's, and they would still be able to fight together with Lver.    

    

But if the opponent's strength was strong, past the Fifth Elder's level of strength, and was close to an expert like Guang Yuanzi, even if Wang Xiao and Lver worked together, they would probably not be able to withstand a single blow. If they really were to encounter danger, Wang Xiao would definitely protect Lver's safety.    

    

"Wang Xiao, look."    

    

Lver suddenly pointed ahead.    

    

Following the direction that Lver was pointing, Wang Xiao saw a stone tablet. The stone tablet was erected in the path, and with a distance of around twenty meters, one could vaguely see that there was a inscription on the stone tablet. It was just that because it was far away, he was unable to clearly see the contents of the stone tablet.    

    

Monolith!    

    

Ancient language!    

    

Wang Xiao and Lver blurted out at the same time. The two of them looked at each other for a moment, then quickly walked over. A stone tablet appeared in front of them, and there were even inscriptions of the tablet.    

    

Wang Xiao walked out with Lver following closely behind.    

    

When he walked in front of the monument, rows of words were engraved on it. These words were not big, but the writing was strong and vigorous, as if the words outside came from the same person's hands. And this person should be the legendary Divine Monarch, the Lord of the Great Desolate.    

    

Only the Divine Monarch would have the leisure to leave these inscriptions in the secret passage. The other outsiders would not be in such a mood. It was because those outsiders only thought of obtaining the treasure as soon as possible and then leaving. No one had the mood to leave behind any words.    

    

Those who entered this secret passage were only looking for treasures, so they would definitely not be in the mood to leave words in the secret passage. Those who entered this secret passage were only looking for treasures, so they would absolutely not be in the mood to leave words in the secret passage. It was said that when a tourist went to Egypt, he carved a picture of a certain something on an antique. This fellow must have seen too much of Journey to the West and wanted to learn how to act cool like a monkey.    

    

Later on, the tour guide in Egypt told everyone that it was not the tourist's fault. It was his fault that he did not remind the tourist in time, which was why the tourist made such a mistake. If it was the domestic tour guide, he definitely wouldn't blame himself, definitely wouldn't say it wasn't the tourist's fault, but that he was unable to stop the tourist in time. Most domestic tour guides would first pay their respects to their mothers, grandmothers, grandmothers and so on, then carry out personal attacks. After that, there would be all sorts of compensation issues, followed by detention and so on.    

    

Wang Xiao and Lver carefully looked at the inscriptions on the stone tablet. The characters on it emitted a vast and ancient aura of a Genuine Qi, even though it was tens of thousands of years later, the aura these characters gave off was still strong enough to last for a long time.    

    

Although it was dangerous, there was still a chance. As for the other path, although it was not dangerous at all, but nothing was achieved, if one had already reached the Fasting stage, at most, they would be trapped for a few years. If they had not reached the Fasting stage, then at the very most, they would be trapped for a few years. If one was able to reach the end of this narrow path with a slim chance of survival, it would be a pleasant surprise. They would reap some rewards, but they would have to be careful and so on...    

    

According to the inscriptions, the Fasting Stage was a realm for ancient cultivators. It was said that as long as a person entered this realm, even if they did not eat or drink for their entire life, they would still not die. And a Fasting Stage expert, in terms of Ancient Times, was not the strongest.    

    

As for the modern day experts, even the strongest of them would not have the ability to resist the effects of Qi Master Stage. If they did not eat for a short period of time, perhaps they might not die, but if they did not do so for a long time, they would definitely starve to death. In Wang Xiao's opinion, the other path was also dangerous.
