Chapter 141: Chapter 108: Reversal, Golden Ring_2

With that one smile, Gong Jiu saw from the side of her face, but noticed that Sui Yi’s hand was covering his mouth, blood seeping through the gaps between his fingers...

She was terrified!

Miss Gong had rarely been scared or startled in her life.

Even if she encountered a psychopath rapist and murderer late at night on the road, she could ask without changing her expression, "Did you bring protection?"

Of course, the most terrifying time had been when she was previously about to be thrown into the canal, utterly hysterical.

Now, it was the rare second time.

Not because everyone in front couldn’t pull open that ring, but because Sui Yi was actually bleeding!

She was actually bleeding!!!

--She didn’t even get her period!

In her anxiety, Gong Jiu didn’t know where the strength came from, but with a shock of her Inner Strength, she sent several people around her flying, got to Sui Yi’s side, pointed her gun, and shot the nearest "person."

Headshot!

Blood and brain matter splattered all over many people.

She grabbed Sui Yi’s arm with one hand, pulling hard towards the ring.

After several tugs, it wouldn’t budge!

Damn it, was the Treasure Map left by the ancestors just a sham, a freaking scam?

At that moment, Sui Yi glanced upward and saw a green shadow leaping down from above...

Many people saw it, many were scared.

Even though they knew the gate couldn’t be opened, in the face of a death crisis, everyone still hoped for a miracle to happen, so for a moment, the small Golden Ring was swarmed with hands.

Pull!!!!!

At that moment, everyone’s face lit up with an indescribable radiance.

Because the gate, which was tightly closed before, now had a crevice and light, leaked out...

Humm~~~

The Gate burst open, a crowd rushed in, no one knew how disheveled they were, no one knew how many people fell down, but at that moment, Sui Yi, moving fastest and having just wiped away the blood from the corner of his mouth, looked back and saw behind him, countless "people" with bared teeth and claws.

And in that glimpse, there was a smear of blood on the ring.

Gone in the blink of an eye.

As the space opened up, everyone was too preoccupied to notice what the scenery looked like, all turning around and shooting at the "people" at the gate.

Fighting as they retreated.

No one had the chance to strike at the others anymore, because after all, there was a difference between people and "people." Based on the terrifying strength of the "people," Leng She wouldn’t be stupid enough to kill Gong Jiu and the others unless he had a death wish.

The group quickly scattered...

Behind them, those "people" seemed rather odd.

"Eh!"

"They can’t get in!!!"

"They’ve run away!"

They can’t get in? Sui Yi’s brows furrowed tightly, can they really not enter? Clearly, she had seen those "people" moving through the tunnels beneath the palace when she was inside the Canal. If the tunnel was accessible, why couldn’t they go through the main hall above?

But, they’ve run away?

Sui Yi’s tongue was filled with the taste of fresh blood, leaning on Gong Jiu and looking towards the gate, he turned his face towards her and murmured, "Someone is controlling these monsters... and also, watch out for Leng She."

Once they knew these monsters couldn’t enter the palace, sure enough, Leng She raised his gun towards Gong Jiu and the others.

At the same time, Gong Jiu and her people also raised their guns towards them.

Interestingly, Leng She’s group, which had the largest number of people before, had now suffered heavy casualties.

The more people, the more who died; that was what Gong Jiu and Flower Demon first mocked about the other side.

Indeed, they did mock them.

Leng She, however, was unconcerned, holding a gun in one hand and playing with a sword in the other, his smile sinister, "Numbers are not the issue, as it’s more than enough to kill you all."

True, they still had thirty people on their side, while Gong Jiu’s side... plus some of Ah Guna’s remaining tribesmen and their own people.

They were only about twenty in total, and although the difference wasn’t that big, the problem was, each of the others still had plenty of ammunition.

Gong Jiu’s side, however, was out of bullets, and the tribespeople’s quivers were also empty.

No matter how skilled your archery is, it’s useless without arrows.

That’s why Leng She was so confident.

Gong Jiu and her people’s faces fell.

Everyone’s palms started to sweat, those with guns had their fingers itching on the triggers, while Adis and others sneered...

Their eyes locking onto their targets.

Gong Jiu and their heads...

"Who wins and who loses, that’s not certain yet~~"

Outside the gate, a group of people walked in casually.

In their hands, they too held guns.

And even Brother Ma, proud and strong, took out a grenade and dangled it loosely.

"Sorry for the late arrival, hanging from a tree was too hard to come down from, luckily, I haven’t missed a thing," he said.

Of course, he was just in time.

All of these people had guns in their hands.

And they were not ordinary in their conduct.

In front, to the left and right of Gong Jiu and Leng She and the others, now added Brother Ma’s entrance.

A three-way standoff.

The grenade was quite intimidating.

Leng She suddenly paused for a moment, then turned with a smile.

His brows seemed to quiver.

".. I wondered why Miss Gong’s people died so cleanly, turns out there were reserves... Good timing.."

With that, he smiled, waved his hand.

And led his people away to another side.

Not until they all disappeared from each other’s sight.

Did Gong Jiu and her people finally breathe a heavy sigh of relief.

Damn, the death crisis was finally over.

While Gong Jiu was feeling exceptionally smug and went with great spirit to inquire about something with Brother Ma and the others, Sui Yi looked towards Ah Guna and the other tribe members with a saddened expression, watched for a while, then shifted his gaze away.

Life and death, who can be sure of it.

She had survived another ordeal, but felt not much joy, only a growing oppressive sense of unease.

This unease originated from this palace.

And this unease felt familiar, back when she first opened her eyes to find herself without kin, alone in the world.

As far as the eye could see, the vast sky and white clouds offered a desolate solace.

All alone but for her.

She was alone.

At six, Sui Yi, an orphan.

This was all she was told by others.

Just that, nothing more. (To be continued. If you like this work, welcome to Qidian (qidian.com) to vote for recommendation tickets, monthly tickets, your support is my greatest motivation. Mobile users please visit m.qidian.com to read.)
