Chapter 232: Young Man, We Meet Again

“These two kids ain’t no ordinary ones.”

A voice echoed from the darkness ahead.

Upon hearing this voice, both Ming and Xuenuo were shaken to their core! Their chests tightened, and they both spat out blood.

Xuenuo couldn’t believe there was someone inside here.

Who was this person? The guardian of this mountain peak? In Ming’s mind, he recalled seeing an old man bound by chains with his Dao Pattern Eye. Could this be him?

What level was this elder at? Just a simple sentence from him caused their Spiritual Energy and Martial True Qi to rise as if facing a great threat.

“These ugly things are truly annoying!”

The elder spoke again.

Right after the elder’s second sentence ended,

From the darkness ahead, gusts of Sword Qi blew forth.

These gusts transformed into fierce winds.

When the Sword Qi winds hit Ming, he felt like thousands upon thousands of blades were cutting into his body bit by bit.

This Sword Qi even pierced through his pores, entering his veins and meridians, colliding violently within.

Ming felt as though his internal organs would be shredded by the Sword Qi.

The intense pain made Ming want to scream, but it felt like countless swords were stuck in his throat.

Even when taking a deep breath, it felt like multiple swords were piercing his throat.

The sharpness of the Sword Qi was something Ming had never seen since being reborn into this world.

He didn’t doubt that in his future cultivation journey, he might never encounter such a sharp Sword Qi!

Soon, Ming realized his thoughts were mistaken.

Because after the Sword Qi winds swept past Ming and Xuenuo, they became even more violent and fierce! “Hoooowwwlll!”

“ROAR!!!”

Behind Ming and Xuenuo, the pursuing Monster Beasts let out cries of agony.

When Ming and Xuenuo turned around, those beasts had all been torn apart into chunks of bloody flesh.

Blood and meat covered the entire ground, limbs still twitching.

The overwhelming tide of beasts that sought to drown them had no defense against this elder.

The following beasts, sensing mortal danger, quickly halted and fled back like they’d encountered the King of Hell.

The Sword Qi winds slowly dissipated, allowing Ming and Xuenuo to gradually regain their breathing. They were drenched in sweat, their clothes clinging to their backs, strands of hair sticking to their foreheads.

Both Xuenuo and Ming’s faces showed an unhealthy flush.

The cave once again fell silent.

Apart from the corpses and bloodstains left behind by the Monster Beasts, it seemed like nothing had happened.

The cave returned to its previous stillness.

Ming and Xuenuo exchanged a glance.

Even without speaking, they knew each other’s unspoken question: “Should we continue forward or retreat?”

But soon, they realized how foolish this question was.

Was there even a way back?

Ming and Xuenuo took a deep breath and simultaneously moved forward into the cave. Retreat meant death; moving forward wasn’t certain death.

If the other party wanted to kill them, they would’ve already died under the claws of the monsters.

In fact, one could say that person saved them, having a life-saving grace.

Of course, neither Ming nor Xuenuo thought this person was benevolent. He might have had ulterior motives for saving them.

As they ventured deeper, the spiritual energies grew thinner, contrasting sharply with the outside.

Besides the difference in Spiritual Energy concentration, the path ahead was no different from when they first arrived. But what was unique was that Ming and Xuenuo heard voices one after another:

“These two young ones aren’t bad.” A sharp voice rang out, sounding somewhat like a eunuch.

“One boy, one girl, virgin boy and girl… wait, wrong. This girl is a virgin, but the boy isn’t anymore. Hehehe…”

“Such a handsome lad. I prefer him not being a virgin. At least the first time won’t end too quickly,” a seductive voice chimed in.

“I wonder how tender this girl is…” The voice trailed off with a sound of licking lips, followed by something dripping on the ground, seemingly saliva.

“Speaking of which, I haven’t eaten meat in ages…”

“These two brats have quite the talent. They’re probably core disciples of the Four Great Sanctuaries and Five Major Sects, maybe even Holy Sons and Daughters…”

“Hmm? This youth seems to practice both physical arts and cultivation methods. That thick Martial True Qi, that robust vitality. Tsk tsk tsk… my legs are getting wet just thinking about it.”

“You old hag, don’t you see they’re Dao partners? They faced life and death together. How touching. And yet you still have designs on his manhood?”

“What’s the problem? I like this vibe. When the time comes, I’ll tie up the woman and make her watch while I play with her Dao partner. How stimulating would that be?

Aaaaaahhh…

I can’t take it anymore. It’s been too long since I last tasted a man.”

“You old witch, you deserve to be locked up here.”

“And you, doggie? Aren’t you also trapped here?”

“But honestly, these two are so young and already possess such Sword Qi and Sword Intent. Especially this girl, she’s already reached the Sword Realm at the Dragon Gate Realm stage. Truly a once-in-a-thousand-years genius.”

In the darkness, voice after voice critiqued Ming and Xuenuo.

Ming and Xuenuo continued walking forward.

Their hearts weren’t calm, but they weren’t overly panicked either.

Because panic wouldn’t help.

The powerful auras surrounding them could crush them to death effortlessly!

Since they hadn’t attacked, it meant there was some restraint.

And just as Ming and Xuenuo took another step forward, suddenly, the entire cave lit up.

Ming and Xuenuo looked up.

Rock walls surrounded them, layered upon layers.

On these walls, cages bound person after person.

At the very front, an elder was chained alone to the rock wall.

The elder raised his head and chuckled, “Yo, kid, we meet again.”
