Hearing this, Chen Xuan smiled and said, "We all like to follow the crowd. Whichever path you choose, senior, we will choose the same."
Xu Mu and Fu Jinyu did not say anything; what Chen Xuan said was indeed the best answer.
If Wu Cang, who was standing right in front of them, knew the secret of this place, he would definitely know which path was safe.
He couldn't possibly take a dangerous path on purpose just to trap the others.
"Hahaha, to tell you the truth, from here on out, even I don't know what awaits us."
Wu Cang said this and then looked at the people around him. "To prevent you from saying I'm tricking you, the five of us will each take one path. You guys choose first, and leave the last one for me."
Shanyue looked at Xia Chuan and Zhong Shuizhou beside him. "You two are guests, so you go first."
Xia Chuan and Zhong Shuizhou looked at each other in dismay; they had no idea what Wu Cang was trying to do.
However, there was nothing wrong with what he was doing so far.
Zhong Shuizhou spoke up, "I choose the third path, the one in the middle."
Seeing that Zhong Shuizhou had made his choice, Xia Chuan also said, "I choose the first path."
Shanyue didn't hesitate and said directly, "I'll take the last one, the fifth cave entrance."
Wu Cang looked at his son. "Wu Zheng, there are the second and fourth ones left. Which one do you choose?"
"You should choose first, Father."
"I already said I'd choose last."
Wu Cang waved his hand with a smile.
"Then I'll choose the fourth one," Wu Zheng said calmly.
"Alright, the remaining second one is mine."
Wu Cang said to the people around him, "Let's set off together. After we get past this checkpoint, I will tell you the answer."
The others nodded one after another. The five of them each chose a path, walking along the suspension bridges here toward the caves on the other side of the cliff.
Wu Cang was the first to step into a cave, and the rest followed suit into their respective caves.
Xu Mu and his two companions stood at the edge of the cliff. He smiled and asked, "What should we do?"
"Why overcomplicate things? We can just follow Wu Cang,"
Fu Jinyu said from the side.
"Brother Mu, there are five cave entrances here, and Wu Cang's group also happens to have exactly five people. Could it be a coincidence?"
Chen Xuan suddenly asked with a frown.
"Now that you mention it, it's really possible. Wu Cang's son isn't very strong, yet he happens to be brought along. Could it be just to make up the numbers?"
Xu Mu also rubbed his chin in deep thought, then shook his head. "There are too many possibilities. I can't guess it at all."
"Then how should we go in?"
Fu Jinyu asked.
"Since none of us can be sure, let's just say a cave number together."
Xu Mu raised his hand and plucked a leaf from a nearby bush. "Shout when the leaf hits the ground."
After saying that, he released his fingers. The leaf spun and fluttered in the air before finally landing on the ground.
"Two!"
"Four!"
The three of them called out their numbers at the same time, but there were only two numbers, because Xu Mu and Chen Xuan had said the same one.
The two of them chose to take the fourth path, which was Wu Zheng's cave entrance.
As for Fu Jinyu, he chose to take Wu Cang's path.
Fu Jinyu thought for a moment and nodded to himself. "You guys think that no matter who Wu Cang tricks, he wouldn't trick his own son?"
"That's just one reason. What I'm most curious about is that his strength is completely disproportionate to the others. Why would Wu Cang bring him along?"
Xu Mu explained with a smile.
"My thoughts exactly."
Chen Xuan nodded in agreement.
"Then let's stop wasting time and catch up quickly."
Fu Jinyu took the lead and walked toward the second suspension bridge. "According to Wu Cang, we will see each other again. Until then, you guys be careful."
Xu Mu and Chen Xuan also ran together toward the fourth path.
Not long after the three of them entered, Ye Chen and Li Chenshuang also appeared there.
Ye Chen looked at the five cave entrances on the opposite bank, then turned to Li Chenshuang and asked, "Do you know anything about this place?"
"No! I don't know a thing. I've never been here before."
Li Chenshuang shook her head.
"Then I'll choose the path. We'll take the first one. No matter what it is, I always like being first," Ye Chen said calmly.
Li Chenshuang didn't hesitate. There were five paths anyway, and since she didn't know which one to choose, she might as well just pick one at random.
Thus, the two of them headed toward the first cave entrance together.
...
Xu Mu and Chen Xuan arrived inside the cave together.
This cave was very short. About ten meters ahead, they could already see the light from the exit.
Just as they reached the exit, Xu Mu noticed that Chen Xuan was no longer beside him, and the entrance behind them had vanished as well.
This was an island, and the distant ocean could be seen.
On the island's mountain peaks, there were many stone buildings.
He closed his eyes to sense his surroundings, searching for Chen Xuan. He found that Chen Xuan was not there, but a silver-haired middle-aged man was standing up ahead.
Xu Mu frowned. Shanyue?
He remembered clearly that the man had taken the fifth path, while he himself was on the fourth. Why would they run into each other?
In the distance, Shanyue sensed the fluctuations from this side and quickly rushed toward him.
Eventually, the two stood face to face.
Or, more accurately, face to mask.
"I didn't expect my luck to be this good, running into a piece of trash like you. This is the territory of our Jiuli Tribe. You outsiders shouldn't be left alive!"
Shanyue spread his arms, and the golden light on his body condensed into a golden longsword.
With a boom, it pierced the ground in front of him.
Shanyue grabbed the longsword and turned into a streak of light, charging at Xu Mu.
Xu Mu looked at him with a calm expression. The peak of the early Shedding Mortality Realm.
He no longer took this level of strength seriously.
Xu Mu drew the black longsword in his hand. Just as he was about to attack, another flash of light appeared more than twenty meters away from them.
Both Shanyue and Xu Mu stopped and looked over.
After the light dissipated, a woman appeared before their eyes. With those proud assets, one would know who she was even without seeing her face.
It was none other than the leader of the Second Tribe, Li Chenshuang.
Li Chenshuang looked at the two men in front of her, her gaze eventually landing on Xu Mu.
Despite the headgear he was wearing, she could tell from his build and posture that he was the sharp-tongued man she had encountered earlier.
To think this man could make it here; he really wasn't as simple as she had imagined.
"Sister, you came at the perfect time. This Shanyue betrayed the ancestor of the Jiuli Tribe. Hurry up and finish him off!"
Xu Mu walked toward Li Chenshuang as he spoke.
Hearing this, Shanyue cautiously backed away. He knew his own limits; against Li Chenshuang, he would undoubtedly die.
"Now is a time when we need people. Why should I kill him?"
Li Chenshuang crossed her arms and cast a faint glance at Xu Mu. "As for you, you are not of our Jiuli Tribe. I would rather give the treasures to them than let you get your hands on them."
She wanted to see exactly what kind of abilities this Xu Mu possessed.
Hearing this, Shanyue breathed a sigh of relief and then said, "The Second Leader is right. I will kill this outsider first."
"Shanyue, if I die, you will die. If I live, I can still help you keep her in check. Surely you can understand something so simple, right?"
Xu Mu smiled and shrugged.
Hearing this, Shanyue's red eyes narrowed slightly. What this kid said actually made perfect sense.
"You really do have a silver tongue."
Li Chenshuang looked at Xu Mu. "But even if the two of you join forces, you are still no match for me."
"Then let's get this started. I am actually quite curious to see how you look when you fight."
Just as Xu Mu finished speaking, three more beams of light suddenly illuminated the surroundings.
Clearly, someone else had arrived.
lan, the Luo family, tracked him down - along with the babies in their arms. Mo Xuan stared pensively at the paternity test results from over a dozen top institutions, both domestic and international, showing a 99.99% match between himself and the two baby girls. At 23, Mo Xuan, a doctoral student, had become the father of two three-year-old children. The kicker? The mothers weren't even the same person! He gradually realized he was being lured step by step into an elaborate trap designed by these two yandere sisters. "Be good, little Xuan. Sister's life belongs to you entirely." "Brother, if you try to run away, I'll have no choice but to tie you up." Mo Xuan: "Do whatever you want, ladies. I give up."
ng to die together with you." Lin Xuan is dead, his body thrown into the river by his scumbag lover and her accomplice. She, the president of the Su Group, is decisive, ruthless, and ice-cold. For three days and three nights, she had his body fished out of the river, and without hesitation, she kissed the bloated corpse of Lin Xuan. She laid down beside him in a cold coffin, their fingers intertwined, a smile lingering on her lips as she closed her eyes. The noble and cold-hearted woman, only bending for one man—Lin Xuan.

ive and Ruthless] Before his transmigration, Ye Xuan was playing a game called "Severing Emotions to Attain the Dao." The game's core wasn't about leveling up by fighting monsters, but about conquering various "bad women" with wicked personalities and cold, fickle natures. There was only one method to conquer them: stay unwaveringly by their side, then die at a critical moment, driving them to madness after losing the protagonist. The higher their level of regret, the higher the player's score. To dominate the server, Ye Xuan conquered all the bad women. In the early stages, he showered them with boundless tenderness, only to choose to sacrifice himself for them later, making them weep bitterly and drown in regret. Among them were: Xia Lengyue, the unfaithful immortal wife who chased after powerful men and discarded her husband like trash. Ye Qingcheng, the Demonic Venerable of the Joyous Union Sect, who appeared pure and innocent but was, in reality, promiscuous. Wu Lingxiao, the Empress of the Great Xia Dynasty, who lusted after men and loved maintaining a harem. Bai Qiangu of the Endless Demonic Sect: a bloodthirsty mass murderer. However, when the protagonist transmigrated into the game world, he made a horrifying discovery. Eight hundred years had already passed. The bad women he had conquered had now each become deities and revered ancestors. Faced with the endless stream of toxic women coming for him, Ye Xuan could only rely on his god-tier acting skills to carve a path of survival through this world of treacherous women.
