66 Trap 1

"Everyone, you are advised to stay in small groups, you may explore the ruins however, Deep Sky Dragon Sect will not be responsible for any casualties"

Most people were cautious and did not rush in, they observed those who went down first and only followed after when they did not sense those that went down already to be in any danger.

There were many twists and turns in the ruins and it was like a maze and dungeon combined together.

Zi Hua and Xue Lian cautiously tread around the ruins, Zi Hua had some knowledge about traps and such but it didn't prove to be very useful when faced with the technology of another world.

Each group was separated by the various twist and turns so no two powers were together apart from those who were collaborating.

However, a certain group was following Xue Lian and Zi Hua, the two had sensed them but didn't pay any mind since it could just be a coincidence, unfortunately when Zi Hua extended Truth's eye she found that their assumptions were incorrect.

'Heh, people like you are easy to deal with because you come to my doorstep'

Xia Meng Meng and the third young master, Xia Liang Yu, doesn't know about the death of General's Manor yet due to information being practically impossible to go through the continents.

However, once they find out they will definitely try to make trouble and it would raise the attention of others, something which she does not want right now.

Just as they reached a dead end and was about to turn back around to walk another way, several figures blocked their way.

At the back of those figures was Xia Meng Meng and a sinister looking man with upturned eyes and a spine-chilling smirk.

"Today is your doom, I'll make you regret what happened yesterday" Xia Meng Meng haughtily said whilst clinging onto the man.

The man looked at her tenderly.

"Meng'er, these pests will not leave this place alive, this is what they deserve for going against you"

Zi Hua stared coldly at the pair of lovebirds, she had assessed the man and found that he was at least decent and on normal circumstances they would've not bothered with each other however thanks to him being on the enemy's side she will have no choice.

"We'll just have to see who's grave this is going to be" Xue Lian casually said, unfazed by her situation.

"Even when death is upon you, you do not know when to retreat, men charge!" Xia Meng Meng ordered her men attack Zi Hua and Xue Lian.

However, against one overpowered spirit beast and the aberrant Zi Hua, how could these measly people be their opponents : they were dealt with in seconds, before Xia Meng Meng had finished saying 'charge'.

Xia Meng Meng's blanked out from shock not believing what had just unfolded and the man beside her's face turned grim.

"Who are you?" He spat out.

"Hah, shouldn't we be asking you that, why would someone from Sunlight Continent be here?" The man wore a rectangular-ish tailsmen on his neck, suggesting that he was from Sunlight Continent.

Huang Qian Yang also wore one however his was in the form of gloves that didn't cover his fingers and had a ring connected to it on his middle finger.

The man immediately went on guard and hid Xia Meng Meng behind him to protect her.

"Ladies, we apologize for attacking you" At this point Xia Meng Meng had lost all the will to go against them, if she really had been stubborn, her life would've gone very differently.

In Xia Li's courtyard there was only Zhang Ling Xin and Xia Fei Yan's mother, her mother had been accident so she could've easily gotten close to her elders and gotten a better life due to the little competition even before she was recruited however she had been meek by nature and had only gotten her arrogance from the flattery, she had practically just hid for her whole life within the courtyard and kept to herself.

"My apologies, you had made your stance clear so there is no going back" Xue Lian then rushed towards them, spirit beasts have always been generally stronger than humans of the same rank so he was no match for her, they were finished swiftly.

However, the moment she turned around to go back to Zi Hua's side, a trap was triggered...
