I was instantly enraged. That dead Xiao Chen Yue not only made me lose face in public, letting these ‘black ducks’ laugh, but he also mocked me for being useless! If I don’t kill them, I won’t be surnamed Ling! “Let me see you laugh! Laugh!!” I swiftly wielded my sword, striking down one after another.
The more I fought, the more addicted I became, and my anger grew.
I dug up old grievances from the past when Xiao Chen Yue had teased and poisoned me, resulting in more falling with each sword strike.
After killing a large portion of the black ducks, the remaining group was wiped out by a silver-white figure passing by. It was Seven Nights! “Reinforcements! My little Seven!” I was so excited I almost rushed to hug him.
Seven Nights smiled, “Han’er, go into the secret room. I’ll handle these two.” I nodded and gestured cheerfully before taking three others into the secret room.
The secret room turned out to be complex. Among us, one was directionally challenged, and none of us had been here before. We wandered back and forth without finding the room where Yu was imprisoned. “Hmm… turn left!” I commanded.
Bao Xi wiped away sweat and asked, “Little Han, are you sure you know the way?”
“No.” I said decisively. After a moment of silence, Bao Xi burst out with killing intent: “If you don’t know the way, why are you leading us? We’ve already walked this turn three times!! (╰_╯)”
I twisted my fingers, embarrassed: “I’m directionally challenged… you can’t blame me…” Everyone collapsed. Just then, the wall next to us collapsed. Fortunately, we reacted quickly, or we would have been in serious trouble.
As the smoke cleared, a graceful silver-haired man walked towards us with elegant steps. I widened my eyes: “Little Seven?!” “Han’er, have you forgotten you’re directionally challenged? Next time you encounter a maze, just destroy the wall,” Seven Nights flicked my forehead and said.
Using Seven Nights’ method for maze navigation, we reached a solid stone door. No matter how we pushed, pulled, or tugged, it wouldn’t budge. “This definitely requires a password!” I said thoughtfully.
