mountains and rivers dream

"No." Xiao Yu shook her head slightly, with a hint of difficulty on her face. But it was only fleeting, and it seemed that except for Yin Rui who was always paying attention to her, the other two people did not notice her subtle expression.

"Maybe it's an unreasonable request, but apart from this method, I can't think of any other way to contact the outside world for the time being..." Xiao Yu looked at Cheng Haojun with a faint gleam in his eyes.

Having said that, Cheng Haojun seemed to have some guesses in his mind.

The Pipa Blade in his hand was similar to the black nail in Xiao Yu's hand. However, he did not fully understand how his master had refined the Pipa Blade into such a powerful boundary-breaking magical weapon.

Although he and Yin Rui were both well-read, the sophistication of the Pipa blade was not something they could replicate.

"Miss, if you have anything to say, please tell me directly so that we can save time. After all, we have been trapped here for a long time. Isn't your sister also out there and we don't know whether she is alive or dead?" Cheng Haojun frowned, seeming a little unhappy.

"Then I'll just say it straight." Xiao Yu sighed slightly.

"During the time I was trapped here, I tried countless methods I had used before, but I was unable to contact the outside world for help. However, the Pipa Blade left by my master can temporarily break through the boundary. I was wondering if I could tie the Pipa Blade to my nail and then let the Pipa Blade carry my nail out..."

Xiao Yu's eyes were full of sincerity when he spoke, and Cheng Haojun saw that there was not even a trace of deception in his eyes.

But as soon as these words came out, Zhao Yishen's expression, which was originally dejected, immediately became wrong.

He didn't dare to do it again, but still spoke in a panic: "Brother! The Pipa Blade is the only relic left to you by your uncle, how could you..."

"Ugh!"

But before he could finish his words, Yin Rui scolded him again.

Having said that, the fact is that it is not just Zhao Yishen, the impulsive teenager, who has his own ideas. Yin Rui himself also has his own concerns in his heart.

Of course he knew what Zhao Yishen was going to say next, which was nothing more than something like Xiao Yu might be a liar and he should not lose both the wife and the army.

But the current situation is not optimistic. After exhausting all methods, all their hopes are placed on Xiao Yu alone.

"This... Miss, can you explain it in more detail..." Cheng Haojun had already taken out the Pipa Blade at this time, and he was staring at the thing in his hand with a serious expression, and was looking forward to Xiao Yu's reply.

Xiao Yu had already expected such a process and was mentally prepared.

In fact, Xiao Yu was more anxious than the other three people at the moment. After all, the others had Lao Gui protecting them outside, so she didn't have to worry too much. Only Lu Yiran was left alone in Jinhui City.

Those dark spirits don’t know what the situation is, and she is the one who can’t wait to get out.

"To be honest," Xiao Yu spoke.

"You are all the geniuses of the demon race. You probably all know the existence of a barrier at the first demon tomb in the first level of the demon race on the north side..." She went straight to the point without beating around the bush. "I didn't expect that you have heard of it, haha. How should I put it? In principle, the existence of this place is only known by His Majesty the Demon King and the guardians of the demon race, and then some children of the aristocratic families. Of course, Junior Brother Cheng also knows..."

After hearing this, Yin Rui's eyes lit up. He glanced at Cheng Haojun inadvertently, and also glared at Zhao Yishen behind him.

Because he knew that this was probably the first time in Zhao Yishen's life that he had heard that such a thing was allowed to exist in the demon clan's territory, it was impossible not to be surprised.

But Yin Rui didn't want him to continue wasting everyone's time, so he temporarily nipped his curiosity in the bud.

"I was lucky. I fell into the endless forest just after entering it. It took me a lot of twists and turns to get out." Xiao Yu smiled awkwardly with a bitter look on his face.

After hearing what she said, curiosity appeared on the faces of the other three people, and that look could not be concealed in any way.

Because of the constraints, they have never gone anywhere to find out.

Xiao Yu half-closed his eyes, but continued: "I won't go into too much detail, but at that time, my Taoist partner and I used a method that allowed us to temporarily become the controllers of the barrier... The place we are in is probably much more complicated than it was back then. This is the only method I can think of right now!"

Yin Rui only listened to about 70% of the rest of the content, but when he heard the word "Daoist partner", he immediately frowned, and his eyes were briefly lost for a moment before returning to normal.

"It seems that we really need internal and external cooperation..." he agreed.

Xiao Yu expressed his gratitude and quickly gave him a thankful look: "The atmosphere here is very strange, and it is highly unlikely that we can get out from the inside. We can only try to open them together as an exception, and see if we can open an exit without destroying this place..."

"Are you afraid that this place will suddenly collapse and shatter, endangering our comfort?" Yin Rui recalled what they had just tried together, still feeling a lingering fear, so he guessed again.

"That's right." Xiao Yu nodded.

After some conversation between the two, Cheng Hao had already understood what Xiao Yu meant. Of course, looking at Yin Rui's reaction, it could also be concluded that he agreed with Xiao Yu's request to borrow the Pipa Blade.

Zhao Yishen, who was hiding the farthest away, was stunned at this time, and seemed unable to believe what he heard.

"In that case... I'll let you use this Pipa Blade for now. Master probably left it to me because he wanted it to be useful and save my life at a critical moment, instead of me hiding it and treating it like a treasure."

Zhao Yishen was a straightforward person. Although he looked weak and sickly like a scholar, when he handed the Pipa Blade to Xiao Yu, he did not hesitate at all, as if he had already made the decision in his mind.

"Aren't you afraid that I will steal it and run away, leaving you all here?" Xiao Yu did not take it immediately, but confirmed with Cheng Haojun again.

Upon hearing this, Cheng Haojun shook his head firmly: "If I don't cherish my life and die of old age, I'm afraid my master will blame me in the underworld. Although my master is a woman, she has never lost to any man in cultivation. She is a strong-willed person. If she knew that I dared to be so submissive and refused to lend her even one thing, I'm afraid she would be so angry that she would come back to life..."

Although this sounded like a joke, Xiao Yu could hear the countless sorrows hidden in it. (End of this chapter)
