The entrance had also been sealed with a barrier. It had no effect on Chen Changan, but it blocked Mu Yunyao and Da Huang.
"Big brother, we can't get in."
"If we break the barrier, will it draw the attention of the people inside?" Da Huang asked worriedly.
"This barrier... I don't need to force it open. Let me study it."
"What's there to study? I'll teach you. It's simple."
Bu Yao's smug voice rang out again. But, there was no denying that Bu Yao had once been a man at the peak of his power, and he really did have a few tricks up his sleeve.
Following Bu Yao's advice, Chen Changan opened a gap in the barrier. He didn't damage it, but the opening was big enough for Mu Yunyao and Da Huang to come through.
"Not bad, old man. You're still good for something."
"Ah, that's just the tip of the iceberg. This is nothing. I—"
"Can you let someone finish talking for once?"
Bu Yao had been about to show off, only to realize that Chen Changan had blocked his voice.
Had the kid guessed he was about to brag?
Was it that obvious?
Chen Changan had no time to wonder what Bu Yao was thinking. Following the passage, the three of them walked for roughly half an hour before finally emerging.
"Is this... an underground world?"
"It doesn't look any different from the world above."
They could all tell that the passage sloped downward, but they hadn't expected to find an underground world at its end.
An underground world that was no different from the one above.
But unlike the deserted land above, there were signs and traces of human life here.
"Big brother, there's a city over there."
"It doesn't look too far away."
