He didn't deny it. It was intentional.
Behind him, voices trailed off, growing fainter, as if they were just whispers in the wind.
Feeling pleased, he wondered if that slap would truly resonate. As he rubbed his face, he felt a sting.
Jiang Anbo glared fiercely but, surprisingly, did not retort. Even Gu had to admit that at this moment, no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't guess what Jiang Anbo was thinking.
Not long after they set out, Jiang Anbo suddenly stopped and looked down at his toes.
What was going on?
They should turn back; Coco wasn't suited for that kind of place and might get into trouble.
Gu You looked at Jiang Anbo in surprise, never expecting such words to come from him. He was usually so carefree, flirting with the goddess and hanging around Smoke Willow Alley. He had never expressed any nostalgic sentiments before. What had happened? Had he been slapped and left dazed?
Seeing her like that, she didn't seem to want to travel much. Keke and the household guards had dispersed; they should turn back. Before Gu could close his mouth, Jiang Anbo hurriedly said, "I won't go back; anyway, he will definitely ask me to return."
Had he really thought it through? Would he still want to go back even after being slapped?
Watching Gu smirk mischievously beside him, Jiang Anbo shouted angrily, "Get lost!"
As he gazed at the slowly advancing numbers before him, the Hall Master took a deep breath. Just moments ago, the largest group had entered Misty Crow Forest. In an instant, a large string of numbers dimmed and were sent back to Universe Hall. Some cultivators failed to activate the formation in time and would forever lie within Misty Crow Forest, becoming food for the Night Crows.
That Liquid Essence would likely hold back those top talents' progress. After all, only when a certain number of people reached a threshold could Coco tear through the Night Crow defenses. If there weren't enough Night Crow numbers, it seemed that even after all this effort, they could retreat without hesitation.
In the Hall of the Universe, a figure adorned with the Star Soul Ring and acting as the Steward made a brief comment, which resonated with the crowd outside the hall. Many nodded in agreement.
"Perhaps it's not just that," someone murmured.
As the Hall Master sighed unexpectedly, everyone focused intently on the scene before them. A golden number suddenly fell from the Misty Crow Forest into another secret realm, prompting gasps of astonishment from all present.
Nearby, a man wearing boxing gloves stood close to Chu Yunxiang. Jiang Anbo's speed surged as he rushed to position himself between them, instinctively shielding Chu Yunxiang. However, just as he halted, Jiang Anbo let out a cry of surprise.
"Is it me?"
Red Tiger, who had been lurking nearby, also expressed his bewilderment.
"Is it me?"
With Gu coming into view, the previously tense atmosphere began to ease. The man who had been standing opposite leaned against a Ke Shi Mu tree and finally took a breath, saying, "You didn't thank me that day; I just did what I had to."
"Am I afraid of poison?" he continued. "If I were seeking poison, I would be standing right in front of him now."
"I'm quite confident," he added.
"He's Ying Zhan, the second on the Heavenly Ranking."
Jiang Anbo noticed that the two seemed familiar and discreetly offered a reminder.
Gu Hu turned to Jiang Anbo, somewhat incredulous. It was hard to believe that he could encounter someone as formidable as the second-ranked on the Heavenly Ranking while casually gathering herbs in a remote area. Who would believe it? Not just Jiang Anbo, but even he found it hard to accept.
How could he be there?
He thought to himself that he should have taken another path instead.
Just when Gu was feeling somewhat pleased and was about to ask a question, Ying Zhan chimed in.
Indeed, he hadn’t traveled much recently, but he hadn’t expected all paths to be so similar. Coco was like a maze, with the Night Raven Abyss serving as its core. Inside, he had encountered Hong Yulong, while Bu Luo had chosen a different direction.
Was there no correct path?
Ying Zhan shook his head and began to tend to his wounds.
Meanwhile, Jiang Anbo called Chu Yunxiang over, asking him to come closer. When Chu Yunxiang approached to apologize, Gu noticed that the guy was grinning foolishly, probably unable to utter a single coherent word.
The Universe Hall provided a map that allowed access to those secret realms ahead, yet Bu Luo found it impossible to discern the direction within.
After tossing a pill to Ying Zhan, Gu scratched his head. It was the first time Jiang Anbo had seen him at a loss for what to do. Did they not know how to deal with Jie Donglai and the others?
