"Everyone, we should have escaped the guards by now, there is no way they will follow us all the way down here!"

Coming to a stop inside one of the many tunnels beneath the capital of the Iron Sky Kingdom. The leader of the thieves who had stolen away a total of three boxes filled with spiritual metals smiled happily while informing the others, as the group of thieves slowly came to a stop.

A little farther away from the group, Xuan Hao also came to a stop as he curiously observed how the thieves stopped before happily beginning to go over the different spiritual metals stored inside of the three boxes that they had stolen.

This continued until they had made sure just what they had gotten away with. Among which, the most precious in the three boxes was a few dozen Soul Grade spiritual metals.

"Looks like they are finally moving again…" Seeing the group of thieves pack up the different spiritual metals that they had just taken out before continuing deeper into the abandoned mining tunnel that they currently found themselves inside of, Xuan Hao continued following closely behind them.

Given that they had not just left the abandoned mining tunnel after having already realized and even talked about how the guards would no longer be after them. Allowed Xuan Hao to at the very least confirm that they should not be working alone and indeed did have some kind of backing…

Now the only question that had yet to be answered… Who would dare backing a group of thieves stealing directly from the Iron Sky Kingdom?

After all, doing something like that would almost be the same as directly stealing from the Iron Sky Kingdom themself!

No matter how tolerant the Iron Sky Kingdom was, it would not just let people steal from them without any consequences!

Following behind the thieves as he thought about this, Xuan Hao become a bit more cautious. Given that the Iron Sky Kingdom had yet to act against these thieves, their backing was clearly not ordinary!

…

"Is it just me or is something wrong with the cave up ahead…?"

Walking along the mining tunnel for close to half an hour, one of the thieves suddenly called out to the rest as the entire suddenly came to a stop as every one of them quickly looked over to where the thief  that first called out was looking.

"What is that…"

"It's almost like the wall is alive…!"

"Maybe we should go back and find a way around it?"

Seeing the thing that had alarmed their friend, the rest of the thieves soon began shivering in both disgust and fear towards the thing in question. Most of them immediately suggesting for them to find another way around the cave in front of them.

"Some sort of living creature in the shape of a wall?" Looking over towards the thing that had caught the thieves off guard, Xuan Hao tilted his head slightly to the side as he tried comprehending just what the thing in front of him and the thieves was.

Wiggle~

"Ah! Let's get out of here and find a way around the cave!" Caught by surprise as part of what could only be describe as a wall of flesh and blood began wiggling weirdly, the leader of the thieves immediately agreed with the other thieves that going around the cave in front of them was most likely a good idea…

Rumble~

Crash!

Just as the group had decided to turn around and find a way around the weird cave screaming that something nefarious was going on inside, the path behind them suddenly began shaking violently before the ceiling of the mining tunnel came crashing down. Blocking their path back.

"W-what should we do now boss…? We are at least a few hundred meters underground, and we will likely not be able to dig ourselves out even if we tried…" As the rest of the thieves still had a hard time comprehending what had just happened in front of them, the thief  who had first spotted the weird living flesh wall that existed inside the cave in front of them asked the leader of the thieves in a clearly scared voice.

Not that anyone could fault him… The weird squirming and wriggling wall of flesh was simply way too creepy and unnatural. Even if they had lived for quite a long time, this was the first time the thieves had ever encountered such a weird situation.

"I-I think we will have to make our way through the cave…" Unwilling to even say it, the leader of the thieves barely managed to utter these words as the faces of each and every one of the thieves darkened visibly.

None of them wanted to enter the cave in front of them after seeing the small fleshly part of the wall that likely covered the entire inside of the cave…

"Boss… We can try to do dig our way out, with our combined strength, we should be able to make our way-"

Bang!

"…"

Just as one of the other thieves suggested that they tried digging their way out through the collapsed tunnel behind them, a loud sound could be heard in the distance as what was likely another part of the tunnel collapsing behind them.

"Let's make our way through the cave, I don't think we have any other way out…"

Hearing another part of the tunnel collapsing behind them, the leader of the thieves sighed to himself. Knowing that they likely would not have any other way to go than through the creepy cave in front of them…

…

"Looks like it worked!"

A little behind the group of thieves close to the rubble that blocked the now collapsed mining tunnel leading back to the mining shaft that they had entered through; Xuan Hao smiled a bit to himself upon seeing that he had been successful in forcing the thief  group inside the weird cave in front of him.

Compared to the scared thieves who were all around the Core Formation Realm, Xuan Hao was not afraid of what might be lurking inside the creepy cave.

The main reason that he had decided to force them through it was so that he would be able to better investigate the creepy cave himself, without losing track of the thieves in the process!
