Chapter 1536: Chapter 1536: Am I... That Terrifying?
"Hmm."
Sui Zimo nodded.
There was no doubt about it: there must be some unspeakable secret hidden beneath this altar.
It’s just that they didn’t know what the secret was yet.
"You go down first, I’ll see if there’s any opportunity up here," Lin Caisang immediately said.
If there were any mechanisms on this altar, they would definitely be part of the altar itself, but could they be where they were standing?
These patterns are quite unique though; all the lines are connected. If one could enlarge them, it would look like a huge labyrinth, certainly enough to make one lose their bearings.
"This altar..."
"What about it?"
Sui Zimo’s voice erupted beside her ear.
Lin Caisang was startled and looked up at him.
"Why haven’t you gone down yet?"
"Did you think I would let you face the danger alone?" Sui Zimo looked at her and retorted.
"Uh."
Lin Caisang was choked up by his words.
Alright, she thought too much; she shouldn’t have said that phrase just now.
"I take back what I said just now. Let’s look together."
As she spoke, she extended her right hand and interlocked her fingers with his left, and they began to study the patterns on the altar.
However, several hours passed and they still couldn’t find anything, not to mention any mechanisms or secret passages; they didn’t even find a single crack.
"If there were someone familiar with this place to guide us now, perhaps it would be easier to find something."
Lin Caisang remarked.
"Hmm."
Sui Zimo nodded.
"Indeed, just wait a bit longer. Naturally, someone will bring back those people’s hearts, and by then, we can simply destroy this altar," he said.
The reason they dared not destroy this altar directly was the fear of what unspeakable things might be hidden beneath it.
If even they couldn’t handle it, then releasing that thing might bring trouble to the Demon Clan.
"Shall we go find that elder?" Lin Caisang proposed.
"Yes, that’s a good idea."
After some thought, Sui Zimo nodded in agreement.
...
"Ah!"
The Demon Clan member who had just carried a tray out of the room was frightened half to death by the sudden appearance of those two in the courtyard.
"How... how did you find this place?" he stammered.
He was on the verge of popping his eyes out, stuttering the question.
He knew that the place was shrouded in a barrier set by the old tribal elder; it wasn’t somewhere just anyone could enter.
Previously, these two had been unable to find it no matter what.
So why was it that today they had so easily discovered it? That was just too frightening, wasn’t it?
Could it be that previously they hadn’t been unable to find it, but rather they deliberately chose not to seek, just waiting for them to come out and find them?
If that was really the case...
"Is our appearance here very strange to you?"
Lin Caisang raised an eyebrow at the Demon Clan member, questioning him.
As long as she had encountered any member of the Demon Clan, could she still fail to find them?
Let alone being in the same county, even if they fled far away, she could track them, couldn’t she?
"Tell that elder from before that we’re here," she said to the Demon Clan member.
"You... wait here," he managed after swallowing hard, then immediately ran off.
"Am I that frightening?"
As she watched the Demon Clan member flee as if flying, Lin Caisang drew in her mouth sharply and looked up at Sui Zimo.
"He knows we’re from the Wuzhu Forest."
Sui Zimo remarked to her.
