Chapter 666: Chapter 676: A Space in the Prison?
As for the return journey, it depended on their performance to decide whether to come back quietly or with pomp and show.
Both methods would result in different degrees of casualties.
So everything depended on their performance.
After walking for about half an hour, they finally reached the solid stone surface.
It was unclear whether the headquarters of Thousand Miles was really that far, or if these people were deliberately taking a detour. In any case, they had finally arrived.
As the monotonous thud of the stone gate opening and closing faded into the distance, Bai Junjun once again felt the surroundings turn cool and damp.
The guards escorting them became more cautious and careful, gripping their clothes ever tighter.
This clearly showed how tense and frightened they were upon entering.
After walking for an unknown length of time, those people finally allowed Bai Junjun and Li Wenli to stop.
It was unclear what they were afraid of.
Shortly after, someone separated them and threw each into a stone room.
From outside, someone threatened, "Stay put if you don’t want to suffer. We’ll question each of you later."
After the person spoke, there was a series of clanging lock sounds.
Once all the noises outside had ceased, Bai Junjun and Li Wenli slowly removed their hoods.
At the moment they opened their eyes, they were first met with sheer darkness, taking a while to adapt to the light.
This was a stone dungeon, and each cell was separated by wooden stakes.
At this moment, Bai Junjun and Li Wenli were locked up separately but fortunately, they were neighbors, and holding hands was still simple.
Apart from them, there were several other cells occupied, but all the occupants were motionless, not even exhaling carbon dioxide, which indicated that they had been dead for quite some time.
Bai Junjun couldn’t help but frown; these people were truly lazy. Not bothering to clean up after those who died in the dungeon. Even if the prisoners didn’t mind, didn’t the smell bother them?
No wonder they had been so nervous and scared earlier. She would be nervous too!
Bai Junjun mused internally, but she didn’t stop moving around, pacing back and forth in the small cell, looking around. Sadly, despite there being at least a hundred cells, they were all pitch dark, devoid of any other living souls besides themselves.
Could it indirectly prove that the dungeon was vast and Lady Lin might be trapped somewhere else?
"She might also be dead."
Li Wenli answered seriously, considering no one knew what kind of approach Thousand Miles took with prisoners.
Bai Junjun sighed. If that was indeed the case, there was nothing she could do, as they, albeit powerful, couldn’t perform resurrection.
The two sat for a while and were just about to break out and search when suddenly, something fluttered in the air.
Both were momentarily startled.
Without speaking, they glanced at each other and saw surprise mirrored in each other’s eyes.
The two, previously standing apart, silently moved closer and swiftly reached out. Their hands clasped together—Bai Junjun’s hand was slightly cool, while Li Wenli’s was warm. Feeling each other’s warmth, they both felt a lightness in their step.
However, this lightness was fleeting; when they looked again, they were still in the cell, without having moved an inch.
They were momentarily stunned, then tried to feel the space around them, only to find it empty; the earlier fluctuation had completely vanished.
"???"
Both wore baffled expressions.
After all, the familiar fluctuation had been indisputably real, but for some reason, it was too slight, and before they could grasp it, it had disappeared.
