Chapter 112: Discussing what's next
"I really didn't expect so many people to gather here! Judging from the situation, everyone has obviously rushed here all the way." Hong Huang said as he glanced at the contestants around him, but his heart was full of doubts. "But what I find strange is that there are so many contestants here, but apart from us, everyone else looks so relaxed and at ease."
Lin Fan, standing nearby, frowned and speculated thoughtfully, "Perhaps it's because there are some rules prohibiting violence here? Or perhaps, they've already formed an alliance. After all, after experiencing that fierce battle earlier, the disciples from sects other than the Four Great Sects have likely reached a consensus and decided to join forces to jointly confront the powerful Four Great Sects."
Hearing Lin Fan's bold guess, Yan Yi couldn't help but tease, "Haha, I didn't expect you, Lin Fan, could come up with such an idea. If I hadn't been with you all this time, I would have suspected that you and Hong Huang had swapped identities."
Leng Feng nodded repeatedly in agreement: "That's right, when Lin Fan said that just now, even I was shocked."
"So I'm so unbearable in your eyes!" Lin Fan roared in disbelief, his voice full of pain and despair. His already pale face was now even more bloodless, and his body was trembling slightly, as if he would fall down at any time.
However, despite the turbulent waves in his heart, he was still unwilling to be denied by everyone like this, so he cast his gaze straight at Ye Yu and asked with a hint of hope: "But Ye Yu, you definitely don't see me like this, right?"
At this moment, Lin Fan's eyes were fixed on Ye Yu, and the expectation in his eyes was almost overflowing. Not only Ye Yu, but even the people standing next to Lin Fan could clearly feel the deep meaning contained in his eyes. Everyone tacitly kept silent, waiting for Ye Yu's answer.
As for Ye Yu, she smiled lightly at first, but in Lin Fan's eyes, this smile was like a sharp knife, piercing his heart. Then, she slowly said, "Actually... I have the same idea as them."
These words were like a bolt from the blue, striking Lin Fan hard. He froze instantly, his face frozen into a picture of despair.
"Okay, let's stop joking! We have to talk about business next. Regarding the two guesses about Lin Fan, I personally tend to believe the second one. What do you think?" Hong Huang looked around at his companions, his eyes revealing a hint of anticipation and seriousness.
Leng Feng immediately responded: "Well... In my opinion, both of these possibilities have certain possibilities, but relatively speaking, I think the second possibility is indeed greater." He frowned slightly, as if he was carefully considering every possibility in his mind.
Then Yan Yi's voice sounded: "That's right, from the beginning until now, I really haven't noticed any signs of restrictions, so I am more inclined to the second guess." Yan Yi nodded as he spoke, expressing his agreement with his point of view.
At this moment, Ye Yu suddenly spoke up, "Although the second hypothesis is more likely, I'm more concerned about something else. If the facts really developed as the second scenario suggests, then when did these seventy-plus people gather together and successfully form an alliance? Could it be during their initial escape?"
Her question was like a bombshell that exploded in the crowd in an instant, making the situation that had already been settled become confusing again.
For a moment, everyone present was stumped by the question raised by Ye Yu. They were all silent and fell into deep thought. After all, none of them had thought of this level before.
After a long while, Hong Huang broke the deadlock: "Forget it, no matter what the reason is, they will definitely not tell us the truth. Besides, it's not a good idea for us to keep wasting time here. We should leave here as soon as possible and then look for those supply boxes."
"Agreed x4!"
Lin Fan and the others all agreed with Hong Huang's suggestion and quickly left with Ye Yu. As they were leaving, they saw a man silently watching their backs as they left. After they walked away, the mysterious man wrote something on a piece of paper with a pen, then folded the paper into a paper crane, and finally threw the paper crane into the sky, and the paper crane floated away with the wind.
Just after the paper crane flew away for a while, Mu Mu stretched out his right hand and caught the paper crane flying towards them.
"Mu Mu, how is it? Is there any news about going to Wu Zong?" Qing Yan beside him asked anxiously.
Mu Mu did not respond to Qing Yan immediately, but opened the paper crane and read the contents on the paper carefully. Soon, she finished reading the entire paper and then spoke.
"Qu Wuzong and the others have already entered the safe zone, but they left immediately and are heading towards us."
"What? Are they coming here specifically to find us?" Lao Wang asked hurriedly.
Mu Mu shook his head and continued, "That shouldn't be the case. They seemed to have a map in their hands and left while looking at it. I just don't know what was on the map."
"But Mumu, is it really worth it for you to use the clone puppet here? What if we don't get any news from them? Wouldn't that be a huge loss?"
"Because we're not ready to confront them head-on yet. We don't know if they'll attack us once they see us. Furthermore, the treasures originally in the large supply box are likely in their hands. Whether we can defeat them then is another matter, and whether we can escape is still a mystery."
"Are we going to keep hiding like this? I won't accept this, Mumu!"
"It's okay, Qingyan. The next large supply crate will appear soon. Then we'll do the same as them and use a fight to confuse the others. Seizing the large supply crate will be our main goal."
"But Gu Wuzong and the others should also be heading to the landing site of the next large supply box. What if we can't grab it from them?"
"They didn't show up last time, which means they don't want to reveal their identities. We can just go and grab the large supply crate. If they show up and intervene, I have a way to trap them. I'll leave it to you then."
"Mumu, is that method you mentioned using the item you got earlier? But that's very dangerous. If you fight against the five of them alone, you will probably be eliminated!"
"Don't worry, I'll find a way to escape. Once you've grabbed the items in the large supply box, leave immediately. I'll catch up with you."
"Okay, then Mumu, you have to be careful then."
