s own partner’s mutual support, he fell below that overhanging cliff.

The remaining people no longer hesitated.

They had already come here.
It was life and death.
They would either turn into meat paste, or soar into the sky —

There was no need for any regrets.

The sound of the wind whistled past their ears.
The mist that rushed by from all directions seemed to bear an insurmountable gravity.
The mist pressed in from every angle.

But right away, before it rushed into their bodies, a wisp of radiance appeared on the surfaces of the two.
In a split second, the mist seemed to transform into true mist, and didn’t negatively affect them anymore.

Gu Zuo rested against Gongyi Tianheng’s back, and sensed the brilliant life underneath him.

His big brother had already been properly nursed by him.
Every inch of muscle possessed a vigorous life-force and terrifying strength!

No longer was Tianheng that sickly young master.

A burst of satisfaction bubbled forth in Gu Zuo’s heart, and he snuggled closer to Tianheng.

Tianheng didn’t say anything, but they were already communicating within their linked consciousness.

[Ah Zuo, are you afraid?]

[With big brother here, I’m not afraid.
It’s just that…]

[What?]

[Big brother, how long will it take for our feet to touch solid… Eh?]

In Gu Zuo’s consciousness, he still hadn’t finished reacting when he sensed that Tianheng’s body had come to a halt.
The gale-force winds on both sides had also vanished.
It seemed that they were already stepping on the ground?

At this moment, Tianheng smiled and said: “We’ve landed.”

Gu Zuo rubbed his face: “…Big brother, let me get down.”

In the past, although Tianheng made most of the decisions, he rarely rejected Gu Zuo’s many suggestions.
But this time, Tianheng shook his head: “I can’t.”

Gu Zuo blanked: “Why not?”

Tianheng lightly sighed: “Ah Zuo, take a look around.”

Hearing what was said, Gu Zuo looked to the side: “Eh, there’s nothing there…”

Wait a minute.
That wasn’t right.

Nothing there?

How could there be nothing?

Gu Zuo suddenly startled.

When he previously talked about not wanting to separate, that was only just in case.
But now, it was clear that the “just in case” had come true!

Apart from them, there was basically no one else nearby.
If Teng Yunfei was alone when he jumped down, then he’d be walking by himself.
In that case, what about those martial artists afterwards? Could it be that not a single person jumped down during this time? This was impossible! The martial artists who came here were all people who’d stake it all on one throw! Their courage wouldn’t be so weak!

As such, where did they go?

Why had no one else come?

Gu Zuo’s heartstrings were stretched taut.

Sure enough, there was something weird about this place.
They had to keep their guards up.

Subconsciously, he put a big more strength in the hands that were placed on Tianheng’s shoulders, and he hugged his dear big brother even more tightly.

Gu Zuo asked: “Big brother, what’ll we do now?”

Tianheng said: “We’ll move forward.
Ah Zuo, release and send out your psychic power.
From now on, we need to be even more careful.”

Gu Zuo nodded his head.
After that, he could sense what his big brother couldn’t see, and hurriedly said: “Big brother, rest assured.
I will.”

Following that, Tianheng supported Gu Zuo even more firmly.
Step by step, he resolutely walked forward.

Gu Zuo also stretched his mind to the limit, and didn’t dare to neglect even the tiniest details.

All around was very quiet.
Too quiet.

Through this passage, aside from the all-encompassing mist, there was only a spacious and empty road.

On the road, there was soil and some weeds.
However, these weeds were unremarkable, and the soil also made the most typical black, dirt road.
It looked like an average road surface, and it wouldn’t cause one to raise their guard.

But for some reason, Gu Zuo sensed a feeling of concealed danger, as if something was in hiding.
A moment of carelessness would cause a huge calamity!

Hence, he did several things at once.
His thoughts moved in his consciousness, and a round pearl had already appeared in his hand.

Without the slightest hesitation, Gu Zuo stuffed this pearl into Tianheng’s collar.

Tianheng only felt a chill on his neck.
Soon after, something rolled down and went directly into his own inner robes.
After that, it tumbled to his waist where it came to a halt.

In that moment, he didn’t know whether to laugh or cry: “Ah Zuo, what are you doing?”

Gu Zuo was very serious.
In a low voice, he said: “It’s a Life-Substitution Beast Pearl.”

Yes.
The instant that Gu Zuo successfully landed, the system had already reminded him that he completed the mission, and then it granted the reward.
Only, at that time, he was too nervous, and didn’t give a timely response.
But now, he didn’t hesitate at all.

Tianheng heard the name of this pearl, and faintly frowned: “Ah Zuo, this is…”

Gu Zuo softly talked about the pearl’s function, and said: “Big brother, who the hell knows what’ll happen here.
You see, I can use my psychic power to protect myself, and I can also enter the Divine Medicine Palace Hall with just a thought.
But if, by any chance, I dodge to the side and I don’t have enough time to bring you with me when we encounter trouble, you can use the pearl to take the place of your life.”

Tianheng’s gaze warmed.

Gu Zuo continued to murmur: “Big brother doesn’t need to stand on ceremony about this with me.
We always maximize the value of things.
No matter how we slice it, it’ll be more secure on big brother’s body than on mine.”

Tianheng still shook his head: “If Ah Zuo’s thoughts aren’t fast enough, how is that any better?”

Gu Zuo promptly waved his hand: “Don’t worry about this.
My psychic power has been protecting my body the entire time.
It only needs to block for one instant, and I’ll be able to escape!”

At that time, Tianheng didn’t continue to refuse.
His steps only became more stable: “As your elder brother, I absolutely won’t let anything happen to Ah Zuo.”

Gu Zuo gave a brilliant smile: “I believe in big brother!”

It was just that the silence on this Road of Death wasn’t so simple.
