Outside the Tomb-Guarding Yong Pit, Luo Bin and Yuan Tianshu followed close behind the Tomb Guardian and the Gu Corpse.
The Gu Corpse moved much more nimbly, while the Tomb Guardian was more sluggish.
At the very beginning, the six-thread golden silkworm gu had been on the Gu Corpse, allowing the Gu Corpse to control the Tomb Guardian with thread gu. Now, however, the six-thread golden silkworm gu refused to leave the Tomb Guardian. This most likely had something to do with Yuan Tianshu's earlier attack. It certainly could not have been fatal, but pain was inevitable.
After walking for a long time, they finally left the Tomb-Guarding Yong Pit far behind, along with the cliff face.

Their heavy weight pulled his clothes
