Woman returned to the tunnel in the Sigma District, intending to get back to work.
She looked around the tunnel, but Liu Dao Wu was nowhere to be seen.
She sighed softly. "Looks like someone's causing trouble for Little Five again."
With that, Woman left the tunnel alone once more and headed toward the nearby mountainside.
Half an hour later.
Wiping away his sweat, Liu Dao Wu followed behind Woman as they made their way back along the mountain path.
"Teacher, I really didn't expect Yang Lao'er to have embarked on the path of the believer. That's how they managed to capture me! Thank goodness you came to save me this time! Otherwise, I really wouldn't have known what to do!"
Woman replied calmly, "It was nothing. Just don't tell anyone that I stepped in to save you."
Liu Dao Wu thumped his chest. "Come on, Teacher! Since when have I been an ungrateful person? Without you, how could I have gotten where I am today? Don't worry. Even with a knife at my throat, I won't breathe a word!"
Woman gave Liu Dao Wu a faint smile. "I trust you."
"Thank you for trusting me, Teacher!"
"Let's hurry up and finish digging this tunnel. In a couple of days, I'll tell you something interesting."
"Ah... oh, sure!"

This tunnel would definitely be finished soon, and whatever Teacher wanted to talk about would definitely be interesting!
