The Underwater Palace
Jie Yan, Gu Yin and Gu Yuena had entered one of the entrances that would take them somewhere.
Currently, the three are seen passing through a very large and dark cave. The path was extremely long but for Gu Yuena and Gu Yin, both of them were not at all surprised because that was the information they received.
“This cave is very long.” Jie Yan muttered as he flew at an extremely high speed followed by Gu Yuena and Gu Yin.
“Do you not know about this information?” Gu Yuena asked curiously because she initially thought that Jie Yan had gathered a lot of information about the Underwater Palace.
“No.” Jie Yan replied with a head bobble.
Gu Yuena felt even more astonished when she heard the reply from Jie Yan.
Right now, Gu Yuena and Gu Yin were eager to ask about Jie Yan's origin. But, for some reason, both of them just swallowed their questions in the throat because they were held back by something.
“Hm? It seems that someone is following us.” Jie Yan said with a frown on his forehead. He deeply recognized the three cultivators who were following at a certain distance behind their current position.
“Who?” Gu Yuena asked with a frown on her face but she immediately continued, “Is that Han Chen and his subordinates?”
“Yes, the three of them. It seems that this Han Imperial Prince named Han Chen is so interested in the two of you that even when you rejected his invitation, he still followed suit.” Jie Yan said with a small smile on his face and he glanced towards Gu Yin.
From the memories he had, Jie Yan was well aware that Gu Yin had an aura that captivated many men. This was a very troublesome aura. In the past, Gu Yin had always worn a veil to hide her face but this time it was not that made more and more men want to chase after her.
Gu Yin could certainly sense that Jie Yan glanced at him at a glance. Somehow, he desperately wanted to explain about it to Jie Yan but his words stalled in his throat as he felt no need to explain anything to Jie Yan.
Even Gu Yuena saw that Jie Yan glanced at his cousin for a while and she felt that something was strange to Jie Yan and when she saw his cousin's reaction, he was even more astonished because it was rare for Gu Yin to show his emotions even if he was just a little.
From this, Gu Yuena felt that there was something about Jie Yan so it made her very familiar even with Jie Yan's way of speaking. But he did not want to mention about someone who became his cousin's husband because it would only make Gu Yin even more sad and become moody.
Since the two were just silent, Jie Yan did not continue speaking anymore. He sped up his flight and felt a little funny looking at Gu Yin's attitude which seemed to want to talk but her words stuck in his throat.
During the trip, the atmosphere was very quiet as no one else tried to speak. And not long after, a blinding light was seen at the end of the very long cave. There is no trap or anything that bothers the three even though from the beginning they are wary if there is something or certain traps that are potentially life-threatening.
When it came out of the dark cave before, Jie Yan, Gu Yuena and Gu Yin stopped in midair and stared at all the places in front of them.
“I did not expect that there would be a place like this in the Underwater Palace.” Jie Yan said as he gazed towards the ceiling and they installed being in the basement because, when moving, when moving, the very long cave lane turns and many roads decline to the bottom.
“I did not expect that we would enter this place.” Gu Yuena opened her voice.
“Do you know what kind of place this is?” Jie Yan asked looking towards Gu Yuena.
“Yes. This place has been recorded. Before, in a time hundreds of years ago there was a cultivator who entered this place and he managed to get out. From this information, this place is actually very dangerous even though it looks very beautiful. It was said from the history that existed, the cultivator who managed to come out came out through the cave that was across there. That's the way out of this place. But, he did not get anything from this place.” said Gu Yuena.
“Oh? Why doesn't he get off the path we're on?” Jie Yan asked curiously as it would allow the cultivator to enter the other path for not getting anything from such a beautiful place.
“This is due to the existence of a powerful spirit beast that will appear in the cave when the cave we passed successfully passed.” said Gu Yuena and her face suddenly darkened.
The moment Gu Yuena finished explaining, an extremely terrifying tyrannical power appeared behind them.
This made Jie Yan, Gu Yuena and Gu instantly turn around and put on a very wary face as the power they felt was extremely strong.
“Soaring!” Han Chen who was flying at high speed along with his two subordinates shouted loudly because behind them was an enormous octopus-shaped spirit beast that was running at high speed. All his tentacles covered the cave he passed through.
Jie Yan directly held onto Gu Yuena and Gu Yin's shoulders which made the two women startled.
“Teleportation!”
Zhep!
The three immediately appeared in a fairly distant place, namely on a small island they saw from a distance.
Gu Yuena and Gu Yin felt dizzy and felt their entrails ruffled from never teleporting before.
However, when the two women looked towards the distance, the two were stunned as they did not expect that they would switch in an instant. Both of them currently knew that the ability previously displayed by Jie Yan was extraordinary. Right now, although the two of them still wanted to know Jie Yan's identity, the other thing they were thinking about was, there were almost no seventh stage Sage Realm level cultivators who could kill Jie Yan.
Only with absolute speed could Jie Yan be defeated to ward off the switching technique in that instant.
Before Gu Yuena and Gu Yin asked, their gazes were fixed on Han Chen and his bottom two that crashed as the giant octopus head burst out and many tentacles tried to catch them both.
However, when the octopus did not manage to catch Han Chen and his two subordinates, the octopus went straight back inside and looked at the three as if he was blocking the exit.
“Where did the spirit beast come from? I couldn't detect it at all through that cave.” Inner Jie Yan and from this, he knew that such a beautiful place was indeed very dangerous.
