SHOCK Chapter 21

Zhou Wu held the limp Duan Youmian in his arms, her usual resilience now completely gone.

Only softness and fragility remained.

Tears blurred his vision as Zhou Wu gazed sadly at the vast expanse of water.

Suddenly, a flash of lightning struck his mind, as if he remembered something, but couldn’t quite grasp it.

He pondered it carefully. Was it the broken iron bucket at the bottom of the water?

Or the rusty, thick iron rod?

Or perhaps the round, heavy shield?

Various items flashed before his eyes from the underwater junk pile, gradually allowing him to grasp something.

Wooden boat, iron rod, water bucket, round shield…

“Hey, Youmian, I think I have a way out.”

Although she heard Zhou Wu’s voice, she couldn’t muster the energy and only lazily twisted her body.

Zhou Wu placed his hands under her armpits, lifted her to eye level, and stared at her face.

“I’ve figured out a way out. We won’t die. Do you understand?”

As he spoke, he shook Duan Youmian vigorously.

“Zhou Wu, can we get out alive?”

Looking at the number 21 remaining on her forehead, Zhou Wu gritted his teeth.

The two immediately got into the wooden boat, one on each side, and paddled hard with their hands.

The wooden boat slowly floated into the water.

Zhou Wu plunged into the water and picked up two thin, light iron rods, a broken water bucket, and two round shields from the junk pile at the bottom.

The two continued to paddle towards the cave blocked by the boulder.

The wooden boat floated to the bottom of the boulder, and Zhou Wu measured the height with an iron rod.

He told Duan Youmian to pour water into the wooden boat with the water bucket.

Then, the two of them each held an iron bucket and started pouring water into the boat.

The thin iron rod gradually supported the boulder, starting to strain, making a series of creaking noises, shaking off a layer of rust, but it held the ultra-heavy stone block.

The wooden boat at the other end of the iron rod also trembled, and the boulder was gradually pushed away from its original position by the iron rod.

Duan Youmian widened her beautiful eyes, utterly shocked.

What was this sorcery?

How could it move such a huge stone block?

Zhou Wu told Duan Youmian to continue pouring the water out of the wooden boat, while he held another iron rod and jumped onto the stone platform.

He inserted the iron rod into the gap between the slowly exposed boulder and the wall.

He pried it hard.

The boulder lurched outwards, one end already detached from the support of the stone platform, and with a loud crash, it plunged into the water, sending up a sky full of water.

A dark cave was revealed between the tall walls.

Zhou Wu clapped his hands in satisfaction and turned back to give Duan Youmian a smug smile.

“How about it? I’m smart, aren’t I? Hahaha…”

The laughter echoed in the air above the water, but halfway through, the other half was forced back down his throat.

Zhou Wu stared blankly at Duan Youmian slumped in the boat, her snow-white body covered in a lot of dust, softly leaning against the bow of the boat.

The ghostly green 0 between her eyebrows was slowly dissipating in the dim space.

Zhou Wu’s body was already at the dark cave entrance. He turned back and took a reluctant look at the snow-white body slowly sinking into the water.

He had already lived through it once because of his girlfriend’s departure.

This time, I have to get some interest back from the heavens.

Then I really have to live well and see if I can make the heavens even more displeased.

Zhou Wu turned his head and crawled out of the dark cave.

It was an upward staircase. He counted step by step, a full three hundred and sixty-five steps.

Suddenly, his eyes lit up. A stone door was pushed open.

A day later, Dugou Qingping (False) and Lai Zhengying walked out of this stone door.

Therefore, the Mountain and Sea Tower Lord and the Riverview Pavilion Lord, the two mainstays of the Soul Severing Cliff, were waiting in this hall.

Seeing Dugou Qingping (False) come out, the Mountain and Sea Tower Lord secretly tightened his breath.

This stubborn girl insisted on personally going through the third level.

Who knew what evil she had fallen prey to.

But this time, for some reason, she insisted on participating herself, and no amount of persuasion could stop her.

Fortunately, she was able to come out alive, which was the best outcome.

Dugou Qingping (False) was also a disciple of Bu Haishan. Although she was already considered a first-class expert in terms of strength, facing the third level, she was betting on luck, and her strength could only be considered second.

Therefore, Bu Haishan was very worried about the safety of Dugou Qingping (False).

The Riverview Pavilion Lord, Chen Jiangting, was a woman. Over forty years old, she was very beautiful and still looked like a girl.

This time, the Riverview Pavilion was clearly better, with one disciple passing and becoming a formal assassin, which was also a major event for the Soul Severing Cliff.

Being able to suppress the Mountain and Sea Tower, Chen Jiangting was satisfied and glanced at Bu Haishan.

“Our Mountain and Sea Tower has been completely wiped out this time. It’s a pity for so many excellent disciples.”

Although she spoke words of comfort, she revealed a hint of smugness.

Bu Haishan smiled slightly, “Victory and defeat are common in military affairs. It’s just that with the young master passing, it shows that the luck of our Soul Severing Cliff is still flourishing.”

“Aunt Ting, I’m not a gentleman. I’m just a woman.”

Dugou Qingping (False) coquettishly said.

Lai Zhengying was shocked, not expecting that the person who had broken through with him was actually the young master of the Soul Severing Cliff.

Oh my god, is this going to make me rich?

Because Lai Zhengying had passed the three-level assessment and formally become an assassin of the Soul Severing Cliff, the two Tower Lords no longer concealed it from him.

Chen Jiangting no longer said more and glanced at the closed stone door.

After saying that, she turned and walked out.
