Chapter 462: Rescuing Xiang Zizhen (1)
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
“The array formation in the other part of the underground palace has been activated.”
Xiao Shi’s eyes turned cold. Through his interpretation of the array patterns, he had already realized that the array formation in the underground palace was divided into several parts. Every part of the array formation had different functions.
For example, the powerful suppression of spiritual sense was the function of a portion of the array formation. The array formation that had been activated had trapped them here, preventing them from leaving.
Xiang Zizhen frowned. Even he did not have any good ideas at this moment. After all, he was not proficient in array formations and was difficult to crack.
“Warden, what should we do now?” Everyone looked at Xiang Zizhen. Deep anxiety rose in their hearts. Currently, two of their jailers had already died tragically. If they had been killed by an expert in the underground palace, they would not be so anxious and heavy.
What really terrified them was because they did not know how these two jailers died. Especially the first jailer. It was the strangest. They could also see traces of being possessed by the second jailer.
But up until now, they did not understand what was going on with the death of the first jailer.
“Now that things have come to this, there’s only one way!” Xiang Zizhen sighed and said to everyone in a low voice. “1 can use a secret technique to teleport you away from here, but… this secret technique teleportation can’t ensure the exact location of the teleportation. Moreover, it will most likely still be in the underground palace. It can teleport you to other locations in the underground palace and escape your current predicament.”
Xiang Zizhen’s words made everyone’s hearts sink even more.
They realized that even if Xiang Zizhen could save them from their current predicament through this secret technique, they would also face new problems.
Firstly, after the teleportation, their positions would be spread out and they would no longer be able to form a group. Secondly, the location of the teleportation could not be determined. If they were lucky and were directly teleported to the exit of the underground palace, they would be able to escape danger.
But similarly, it was also possible that they would be teleported to a dangerous area deeper in the underground palace. At that time, the risk of death would be even greater. There was an element of gambling involved.
But if they didn’t teleport away, they would be trapped here forever. Once this continued, no one knew if there would be greater danger and crisis in the future. No matter what, the most important thing now was to get out of this predicament. If they teleported to another location, they might have a chance of survival. However, if they were trapped here forever, they could only wait for death!
“I was careless in this situation.” Xiang Zizhen sighed. “Now, 1 can only leave a power shield on you. This power shield can give you a certain level of protection. The rest… can only rely on yourselves.”
Through the soul seal in Xiang Zizhen’s mind, Xiao Shi could clearly determine that the other party’s words were not fake at all. This was different from his previous guess. If Xiang Zizhen wanted them to be cannon fodder this time, there was no need to do this.
After all, using this teleportation secret technique would also have a certain burden and price for Xiang Zizhen. Judging from the other party’s series of performance and soul fluctuations, the sudden situation previously was indeed unexpected.
He did not treat everyone as cannon fodder at all. In fact, the reason why Xiao Shi felt that Xiang Zizhen was using them as cannon fodder was mainly because Xiang Zizhen was the murderer who killed Qin Mo.
Xiang Zizhen was really too suspicious in this aspect. But now, with Xiang Zizhen’s series of actions, it reminded Xiao Shi of what kind of person Xiang Zizhen was. He treated people sincerely, was gentle, and was a very sincere person. He was not the kind of scheming person who would play dirty behind the scenes.
This was the same whether he was in the Four Symbols Divine Martial Sect or the Xingluo Army. This was also what Xiao Shi felt the most contradictory about the investigation of Qin Mo’s death.
According to Xiang Zizhen’s personality, it was impossible for him to be Qin Mo’s murderer. However, all the accusations were directed at him. And now was not the time to think about this. The situation in the underground palace was completely out of Xiang Zizhen’s control. No one knew what other terrifying dangers still existed in the palace.
The most important thing now was how to survive in this palace.
Soon, as Xiang Zizhen used the teleportation secret technique, everyone’s figures were enveloped and swallowed by white light one after another. They disappeared one after another.
Xiao Shi was also covered by the white light. He was teleported to another part of the underground palace. This was a wide aisle. The dark underground palace was silent. When Xiao Shi appeared here, he began to think.
Although there was a huge danger in this underground palace, he came here mainly for two purposes. The first was to make a contribution and exchange for more prisoners to kill from the prison. The second was to investigate Xiang Zizhen in depth.
Through this incident, he had already seen through Xiang Zizhen’s character. It was the same as the information he had previously obtained. He had no choice but to re-examine Qin Mo’s murder.
If Xiang Zi was really not the murderer, then it could only be the other two people from the Dream Witch lineage who worked together to kill Qin Mo.
In that case, he could not ignore Xiang Zizhen. He had to ensure that he could leave the underground palace alive.
“As a priest of the Four Symbols Divine Martial Sect this generation, Xiang Zizhen is deeply trusted by the other disciples and is the leader of everyone. If something happens to him, there’s a higher chance that Qin Mo’s murderer will have an opportunity..”
