"Xing'er, do you really think there could be living people in a place like this?"
They walked through a region steeped in deathly silence, surrounded by jagged strange rocks and countless corroded scraps that had been eaten away beyond recognition, impossible to tell what they had once been.
A man and a woman were moving forward slowly.
They had been walking for three full days, yet they were still circling this area. Forget living people—there was not even the slightest trace of anything that had ever possessed life.
The two were naturally Qin Shaofeng and Gusu Hanxing.
Even with Qin Shaofeng's resolute mind, looking upon a land where any being that entered was doomed to die, a place where survival was utterly impossible—
He had not wanted to ask, but after enduring it for three days, he still could not help speaking up.
He was not the only one harboring such doubts.
Gusu Hanxing was no less puzzled by the scenes before her than Qin Shaofeng.
With another step, she crushed a chunk of something that might once have been a giant boulder into powder. Gusu Hanxing bared her teeth fiercely.
She wanted to say something, but when the words reached her lips, she swallowed them back down.
She, too, had begun to question whether the information she had heard was true.
It was simply impossible for her to answer Qin Shaofeng's question.
"This really is a miraculous world. How about we just fly out?"
Qin Shaofeng looked around once more, then could not help speaking again.
"No!"
Gusu Hanxing was startled by his suggestion.
This place was filled with dangers that could easily send them to their deaths. Trying to fly here was practically courting death.
"If we can't fly, are we really going to wait here for death?"
