C896 The Bottomless Abyss of Darkness



C896 The Bottomless Abyss of Darkness

Moxie Zhengdong shouldn't have let Gao Fei be a muddle-headed ghost, but her selfishness prompted her not to tell the truth.    

    

Only when the King Snake leapt up and the torch was extinguished did Moxie Zhengdong shut her eyes in pain. Only then did she realize how much she regretted her selfishness.    

    

But it was too late.    

    

She could not bear to see the King Snake bite Gao Fei to death, and she did not want to hear his screams either. Hence, she could only close her eyes and let out a mournful howl from her mouth.    

    

The hissing sound was like a long dragon trapped in the crystal palace. It echoed rapidly in the small icy cave, as if it was trying its best to break out of the confinement. However, in the end, it could only return to Moxie Zhengdong's ears.    

    

Hundreds and thousands of King Snake were frightened by the hissing sound and all of them started to creak nervously. All of the King Snake began to move, but none of them dared to get within half a meter of Moxie Zhengdong.    

    

Moxie Zhengdong's lungs had been roaring for over a minute, from her high pitch at the beginning to her soft moan in the middle to her final sobs. From this, it could be seen how strong Moxie Zhengdong's lung capacity was.    

    

It was as if there was an obvious whimper, a hoarseness, in the midst of the howling that was torn to pieces by the violent wind. It gradually dissipated into the echoes of the hissing, like the footsteps of a lover walking away through autumn leaves. In the end, everything returned to its original tranquility.    

    

It was dead silent. Hundreds and thousands of King Snake were as if they were shocked by the sound and could not move anymore.    

    

In the deathly silence, there was the sound of water dripping onto the ice.    

    

This was the sound of Moxie Zhengdong's tears falling, weak and fragile, but real.    

    

The sound of tears falling onto the ice seemed to have revived all the life in the world. Hundreds of poisonous snakes crawled up once again, emitting creaking sounds.    

    

The pungent smell they gave off filled the entire cave, but Moxie Zhengdong couldn't feel it because her thoughts had stopped moving. She stood there with her head slightly lowered, not moving at all.    

    

Perhaps she was a tragedy, a tragedy from the day she was born until the day she died, when she learned that there was something more important than her survival.    

    

It was love that she had never looked down upon before. Only commoners would have such a thing, and to the Moxie Family members who were in charge of King of Loulan Ye, it was just a joke.    

    

That person had already left. Amidst her frantic howls and tears, she was bitten to death by tens of thousands of snakes.    

    

What made her feel sarcastic was that at this time, she came to her senses: when she was blocked by Tuoba Qianjun, she should have brought Gao Fei and left, whether it was the continuation of his Moxie Family or the Wu Steel Room!    

    

Wake up, why is it always after the tragedy?    

    

No one answered Moxie Zhengdong's question, all they could hear was the sound of tears and the rustling sound of the King Snake.    

    

She felt like she was slowly walking into a dark and cold tunnel. It was the darkest and coldest place in the world, far from the current icy cave. It was like she had gone to outer space and would never wake up.    

    

She was dead.    

    

Moxie Zhengdong's heart had already died before her tears had stopped flowing, leaving only her body to endure the pain and suffering that didn't matter to her at all.    

    

Suddenly, she thought of the legendary mermaids in the west.    

    

Legend has it that the mermaids were originally the Shura of the Shura Dao. The tears they shed would turn into pearls, and when the tears dried up, their lives would come to an end.    

    

Another tear slowly rolled down his cheek, but it had already stopped when it reached the corner of his mouth.    

    

The temperature in the ice cave was finally low to the point that it turned into ice.    

    

Moxie Zhengdong didn't think about it. She walked towards the bottomless, dark tunnel without moving an inch.    

    

Suddenly, a hand lightly brushed against her mouth, wiping away that tear.    

    

Like a patient who had just stepped into death but was saved by lightning, Moxie Zhengdong suddenly raised her head and opened her eyes.    

    

Then, by the last glimmer of the torch, she saw a smiling face.    

    

Gao Fei smiled.    

    

The light was dim, almost indiscernible, but Moxie Zhengdong could still clearly recognize the smiling face. It was Gao Fei's face.    

    

Staring blankly at this smiling face, Moxie Zhengdong also smiled slowly. She slowly let out a breath and said, "Oh, I didn't expect to meet you so soon. It's great."    

    

She thought that she had completely died, and she saw Gao Fei once again in the legendary Asura Dao (The Asura Dao of Six Paths).    

    

Moxie Zhengdong was genuinely happy to see Gao Fei appear in the Asura Dao. Since they couldn't be together in this world, it was a good thing to be able to meet again in this world.    

    

Instinctively, Moxie Zhengdong wanted to hug Gao Fei with her arms wide open, but the sound of shackles clanging came from above.    

    

"Are there any shackles here?"    

    

Moxie Zhengdong raised her head and saw that the last ray of light had also disappeared. However, the surroundings had suddenly lit up with a lot of red light spots. It was like a ghostly flame.    

    

Gao Fei wrapped his arms around her and whispered into her ear, "Wait a moment, I'll release the shackles for you."    

    

Feeling Gao Fei's body temperature, as well as the not very wide but very safe body, Moxie Zhengdong obediently and gently nodded. She closed her eyes again and rested her chin on his shoulder.    

    

At this time, she didn't want to say anything else. All she wanted to do was to quietly enjoy the current situation in Wanning.    

    

Gao Fei raised his hands to reach the shackles, but it was not enough. He wanted to jump and grab the beam. If it was before, he could climb the beam that was more than two meters high, it would be as easy as spitting.    

    

However, when he exerted a little more force, he felt golden stars springing up before his eyes. The back of his head was slightly aching. Not to mention jumping, even Moxie Zhengdong's chin, which was resting on her shoulder, could not support it.    

    

Gritting his teeth, Gao Fei asked in a low voice, "Dong'er, can you use your feet to hug me and lift me up? I can't reach that shackle."    

    

Moxie Zhengdong didn't say anything, but Gao Fei could feel a pair of strong legs wrapped around his calves. Then his body slowly rose up until the shackles reached his mouth.    

    

Relying on Moxie Zhengdong's ability and her strength in her legs and waist, she was able to lift Gao Fei to a height of more than one meter. However, she was still able to maintain the balance behind her bent body.    

    

"Alright."    

    

In the darkness, Gao Fei Mo walked to the big lock on the shackles and stabbed it with a wire he had prepared a long time ago.    

    

Before coming to the ice cave, he had heard Tuoba Qianjun say that in order to prevent Moxie Zhengdong from saving him, he would shackle her and prepare this metal wire.    

    

Although Gao Fei had lost his memory and no power to kill chickens, some of his abilities or instincts had not disappeared. As long as he was given a wire, he could open any lock in the world.    

    

Crack * With the sound of the lock being opened, Gao Fei said anxiously, "Hurry, let me go …"    

    

Before he could finish his words, Moxie Zhengdong, who was hanging in the air with her legs supporting him, fell down as the big lock was opened.    

    

It was purely out of instinct. After losing her center of gravity, Moxie Zhengdong held Gao Fei with her left hand while her right hand slapped on the ground the moment her body was about to hit the ice!    

    

With a dull bang, Moxie Zhengdong borrowed the strength of the palm and flew into the air. She flipped backward with Gao Fei in her arms and landed steadily on the ice.    

    

"Squeak!"    

    

The group of snakes sensed the strong yellow aura and began to slither in all directions.    

    

Moxie Zhengdong hugged Gao Fei and was stunned on the spot.    

    

Not long ago, she thought that after her death, she went to the Asura Dao and saw Gao Fei who was already waiting there. But now, she realized that she didn't die nor did she come to the Asura Dao.    

    

She and Gao Fei were still in the ice cave. There were hundreds of thousands of snakes surrounding them. The air was filled with a fishy smell, and there was also the smell of pine resin after the fire.    

    

"What's going on?"    

    

After staring blankly for a moment, Moxie Zhengdong finally understood that the scarlet dots of light that she saw were actually the eyes of a King Snake.    

    

How is that possible?    

    

Because she saw with her own eyes at least a dozen King Snake pouncing towards Gao Fei.    

    

King Snake could care about her painted yellow body, but she would definitely not mind treating Gao Fei as a delicious meal.    

    

But why was Gao Fei still alive and well?    

    

Just when Moxie Zhengdong was at a loss, Gao Fei spoke up, "Can you let me down first? I don't like being carried by women like a child, especially when they are naked."    

    

However, Moxie Zhengdong did not pay attention to him. She only lowered her head to rest it against his forehead as she softly asked: "This, what exactly happened? Why haven't you been bitten by the King Snake?"    

    

"Let me go and let me explain."    

    

Gao Fei struggled again and his vision went dark when he used too much force. When he subconsciously tried to take a breath, Moxie Zhengdong obediently let go of his arms.    

    

Then, Emperor's Son-in-law Gao fell onto the ground very elegantly, almost fainting on the spot. Moxie Zhengdong was so shocked that she quickly squatted down to help him up.    

    

"You, are you trying to throw me to death?"    

    

Gao Fei muttered angrily.    

    

"I'm sorry, I was careless. I'm sorry."    

    

Moxie Zhengdong kept apologizing and even massaged his stinging hair.    

    

"Let's get out of the way. There won't be a next time."    

    

Gao Fei raised his hand and pushed her away, but she bumped into something elastic. Like a frightened rabbit, Moxie Zhengdong retreated three meters and her body heavily hit the wall of the cave.    

    

The group of snakes, which were originally hiding by the wall, immediately fled with a screech after a large group of 'Xiong Huang' flew over. Some of them even leaped up like Crossbow Arrow and shot towards Gao Fei.    

    

At this time, Moxie Zhengdong's eyes had already adapted to the current darkness. She vaguely saw countless figures with scarlet dots rushing towards Gao Fei. They were scared out of their wits and were about to rush over when her eyes suddenly lit up.    

    

The light was only half the size of a matchbox, and it radiated in all directions like a line of radiation. It was about a meter long, appearing and disappearing at the same time.    

    

All the King Snake that pounced on Gao Fei let out a blood-curdling screech the moment they came across the light golden light. They all fell down from the sky as if they had hit a glass wall that couldn't be seen, and then escaped as fast as they could.    

    

After the King Snake left, the faint golden light quickly disappeared and the thunder-like sound of burning in space also followed after the breathing.    

    

Everything returned to darkness once more. Those small, scarlet eyes of the King Snake revealed a great fear that a human could understand!    

    

Bone Amulet!    

    

Staring dumbfoundedly at Gao Fei who had disappeared into the darkness, Moxie Zhengdong's mind flashed with inspiration. She thought of something that had happened before: In the Asura Dao, there were a few King Snake that had pounced towards Gao Fei, but all of them fell to the ground.    

    

The amulet that Gao Fei was wearing was a sacred object that King Snake were afraid of!
