“A six-star gem is quite precious in your family too, right?”

As Zheng Cheng pondered over this Heart of Earth, he turned to look at Li Jiao.

Li Jiao blinked in surprise, then said, “Yes, indeed. In our Li Family, only some uncles and senior family members are qualified to set it into their equipment.”

“But don’t worry, we would not snatch it.”

“It was agreed before we entered that whoever finds the spoil of war, gets it.”

“Although I saw this Heart of the Earth first, you killed the BOSS and saved me. It rightfully belongs to you.”

“A mere six-star gem is not worth our Li Family breaking our oath.”

“Good.”

Zheng Cheng satisfied, put away the Heart of Earth.

He had a decent collaboration with Qin Zheng and Bai Jingqi. He wouldn’t like any misunderstanding or conflict over a six-star gem.

“Zheng Cheng.”

Suddenly, Song Chaoyu came over and said in a deep voice, “Liang Feifan is missing.”

“Liang Feifan?”

Zheng Cheng asked quickly, “Wasn’t he with you? When was the last time you saw him?”

“It was when the BOSS used his ultimate attack,” Song Chaoyu thought for a moment. “I was preparing to help you with my spirit beast, but I saw Liang Feifan swimming towards the exit. I don’t know where he ran off…”

“Could he be dead?” Li Jiao butted in.

Seeing the looks on their faces, Li Jiao quickly added, “I’m not wishing him dead or anything, but he’s been absent for a long time. It’s plausible that something has happened to him.”

“Also, he actually ran away during the boss fight. He might just have become a deserter…”

“Enough,” Zheng Cheng cut Li Jiao off, then turned to Song Chaoyu, “You can sense souls, right? Try it…”

“Alright.”

Song Chaoyu nodded, her pupils suddenly became dark, and a faint chanting sound came from her mouth.

“Ooooooooo”

A series of low humming sounds echoed around the river cave, with countless shadows emerging from the dark corners.

Li Jiao shuddered and instinctively moved closer to Zheng Cheng.

“What’re you doing?”

“I’m… I’m a bit cold… I’ve been afraid of ghosts since I was a child, and my brothers would always scare me with them.”

“Cold? Let’s embrace ”

Zheng Cheng reached out his arms, and to his surprise, Li Jiao actually snuggled in.

Zheng Cheng, helpless, had to hold her.

“Mmm…” Li Jiao rubbed against him, “I haven’t been held by anyone for a long time…”

Soon, along with Song Chaoyu’s skill, the figure of a person emerged from the distant river. With resentful and scared eyes, the ethereal figure was dripping with river water.

“It’s Liang Feifan!”

Song Chaoyu’s pupils became normal again, “He really is dead!”

“Swallow him.”

“Huh?”

Song Chaoyu was stunned, “Why should I swallow him, what if…”

Zheng Cheng said, “If a teammate dies, we have to give the Night Watch an explanation.”

“Well… alright, I understand.”

Song Chaoyu helplessly nodded, opened her small mouth, and gently inhaled.

She took Liang Feifan’s soul into her body.

Seeing Liang Feifan’s soul get sucked in by Song Chaoyu, Li Jiao’s eyes suddenly changed, and she anxiously said:

“What…what is she doing absorbing that… ghost…?”

Zheng Cheng laughed, “That’s her ability, she can not only control ghosts, she can even absorb their souls…”

“Ghost…Ghost Queen! A female Ghost Queen!”

Li Jiao was startled, her eyes filled with surprise and fear.

Thinking that she had been fighting against Song Chaoyu just a while ago, she felt a shudder in her heart.

At this moment, Song Chaoyu’s expression also changed.

First, it was ecstasy, then resentment. She was struggling constantly.

Zheng Cheng saw this and immediately pushed Li Jiao away and held Song Chaoyu.

He knew that this was a necessary process when Song Chaoyu absorbed a soul.

She had to experience the most memorable memories before the absorbed soul died!

A few minutes later, Song Chaoyu started to calm down and began to breathe heavily.

Her face turned red and said, “Alright, Zheng Cheng, let me go…”

Zheng Cheng let go of her, and Song Chaoyu absentmindedly straightened her long hair, “I saw how Liang Feifan died.”

“He…he was torn in half by that Fishman BOSS…”

Speaking of which, Song Chaoyu still looked pale.

“What about his corpse?”

“I don’t know, it could have been swept away to some other place by the wave.”

Zheng Cheng asked curiously, “Why do you look so bad?”

Song Chaoyu glared at Zheng Cheng, and said through gritted teeth, “You let me absorb his soul… Do you know what else I saw besides the scene of his death?”

“What?”

“He…he was affected by your Acute Gastroenteritis Instant Eruption Technique, and he…he pooped…”

Zheng Cheng made a strange face, looking at Song Chaoyu up and down, “So you’re saying, you also felt…”

“Don’t say it!”

Song Chaoyu abruptly jumped up and covered Zheng Cheng’s mouth, “If you speak, I won’t talk to you!”

“Ok, ok, I won’t say.”

Zheng Cheng shook his head, “Anyways, I’ll try to find Liang Feifan’s body first. After all, he was a comrade…”

With a thought, he turned on the Central Radar Life Monitoring Technique in his mind, but inside he was thinking:

“Good, my strategy of using one enemy to devour another seems to have worked, and even Song Chaoyu was fooled.”

“Liang Feifan’s death was just an accident. He was killed by the BOSS and it had nothing to do with me!”

With the Central Radar Life Monitoring Technique, he was able to see everyone’s position clearly during the fight with the BOSS.

Liang Feifan wanted to hide?

That won’t be so easy!

All he needed to do was send the BOSS his way and Liang Feifan would have had no chance!

As soon as he turned on the Central Radar Life Monitoring Technique, Zheng Cheng became alert.

In the 3D map, there were five green dots moving slowly towards them. They were moving quite quickly.

“Huh?”

Zheng Cheng found it strange, “Five green dots? Yao Zhixue, Cai Shen, Qin Zheng, Bai Jingqi, and Li Zhen…”

“Where’s Bai Jingsheng? Why can’t I see him?”

Song Chaoyu noticed the expression on Zheng Cheng’s face and asked, “Zheng Cheng, what’s wrong?”

Zheng Cheng shook his head and replied, “We didn’t find Liang Feifan’s body, but Qin Zheng and Li Zhen are coming over.”

“What?” Li Jiao also rushed over, “Brother is coming?”

“Is Brother Jingqi with them?”

“Yes.”

“Great!”

Li Jiao immediately cheered, “Great! They’re all safe, and we’ve also found the Heart of the Earth, as required by the mission.”

“Now, we just need to return to the entrance of the secret realm.”

Zheng Cheng’s expression remained stern, causing the excited Li Jiao to notice something was amiss.

Thinking of Liang Feifan, who was confirmed dead, her face also turned pale.

“Wha… what’s wrong, did something else happen?”

Zheng Cheng nodded, “I’ve only detected five people. Bai Jingsheng wasn’t among them.”

“What?!”

“Chaoyu.”

“What?”

“First, use the Soul Beast to guide them here.”

“Okay!”

Song Chaoyu quickly controlled a massive python-like Soul Beast and sent it into the water.

Not long after, the Soul Beast emerged from the water, with a drenched rooster on its back.

Upon seeing Zheng Cheng and others, the rooster flapped its wings, sprinting towards them.

“Wu wu wu, Brother Cheng, I thought I wouldn’t make it back, kokokokokoko…”

Zheng Cheng pushed Cai Shen aside while walking towards the shore, “Get away! You’re sopping wet.”

“Wu wu wu, Brother Cheng, you no longer want me…”

“Scram!”

At the shore, Zheng Cheng turned to Yao Zhixue who was already there, “Are you alright?”

Yao Zhixue shook her head and softly replied, “I’m fine, but they…”

They turned to glance at Bai Jingqi, Qin Zheng, and Li Zhen, who were all sitting on the beach, panting heavily.

Bai Jingqi clenched his fists, his eyes blazing with fury, seemingly ready to tear someone apart.

Qin Zheng and Li Zhen also looked grief-stricken, especially Qin Zheng, who was injured and pale with blood stains on his body.

“Brother! Brother!”

Stumbling, Li Jiao ran up to Li Zhen, anxiously asking, “Are you okay? Is everyone fine?”

“Where’s Jingsheng? Where is that guy Bai Jingsheng?”

“Brother Zheng Cheng found the Heart of the Earth. We can go back now!”

“Heart of the Earth?”

Upon hearing the name “Heart of the Earth,” some life returned to their eyes.

Li Zhen rose to his feet, anguish written all over his face, “Jingsheng… is gone.”

“What?”

Li Jiao looked shocked, and her voice quivered.

“How…how is that possible? How could he be dead?”

“He was so cautious about preserving his own life, prepared several lifesaving items, how could he possibly…”

She and Bai Jingsheng had known each other since they were kids.

Despite growing up in different households, they still remained close friends as both their families were old friends.

Even though Bai Jingsheng was a playboy, and changed girlfriends as frequently as clothes, he had always treated her kindly and respectfully.

They often played and teased each other.

She had never thought that he would just be gone after one trip to the secret realm…

Li Zhen sighed deeply, “Jiaojiao, don’t be so sad. This is the life of a professionist… You should have been prepared for this.”

“Who’s sad?!”

Li Jiao’s eyes reddened, “I’m not crying! I just have something in my eye, hmph!”

When Cai Shen tried to speak, Zheng Cheng pulled him aside.

With Zheng Cheng’s instructions, Yao Zhixue and Cai Shen obediently followed Zheng Cheng to a separate spot.

“Let’s give them some space.”

Zheng Cheng instructed, “Tell me everything that happened after we got separated.”

“Alright, brother Cheng.” Cai Shen hurriedly shared, “After we got separated, we went to assist Bai Jingqi and then we…”

A few minutes later, Zheng Cheng got the full picture.

“So, you were ambushed by half-beast-human troops.”

“And there were two bosses, one was a half-beast-human skilled in close combat and the other was a Beastman Shaman?”

“Yes.”

Cai Shen nodded. “Qin Zheng provided this intel. They seemed to know much about the Shaman profession.”

As Zheng Cheng started looking around, “By the way, Cheng brother, where is Liang Feifan? Why is he not here?”

“He didn’t die, did he…”

“Yes, he is dead.”

“What?”

Cai Shen’s eyes widened, “I…I was just guessing.”

“I wasn’t.” Zheng Cheng said seriously, “We have just killed a boss, look over there at that huge Fishman.”

“Liang Feifan died in the mouth of that Fishman. His body was torn in half.”

“Wh…what…”

Song Chaoyu also added, “It’s true. I even sucked up his soul.”

“Y…you…”

Cai Shen was stunned again. Pointing at Song Chaoyu, he was at a loss for words.

Finally, he managed to utter, “He died too easily…”

“Ah !”

Suddenly, there was a scream from the shore not far away.

The others also rose quickly, staring warily at the river.

“What happened?” Zheng Cheng and others rushed over: “Did you find something?”

Li Zhen spoke solemnly, “Dead fish!”

“Many dead fish have appeared in the river.”

“Those half-beast-humans…have poisoned the water!”
