Chapter 163: Chapter 162 Finally OutEspecially those eyes. Who was he? Jin Zijin startled, paused slightly, and his movements slowed a bit. And during that moment of distraction, the wild man uncle quickly escaped through the tree hole. Having spent years in these desolate mountains, he moved like a monkey, which had allowed him to escape Jin Zijin’s clutches numerous times. But this time... Jin Zijin was determined, hell-bent on capturing him. So, in the rarely trodden wilds, their figures darted swiftly, startling flocks of birds along the way. Until... from a mountain far behind them, a rumbling sound echoed. The wild man uncle stopped, and so did Jin Zijin. After the shock, they both ran back like madmen! ... The tomb passage was even longer than Gu Youyou had imagined, and the idiot with her had gone halfway and zoned out again. Gu Youyou had no choice but to drag him forward with all her might. "I’m exhausted, hurry up! If it wasn’t for the fact that you didn’t abandon me at a critical moment, I wouldn’t bother dragging you!" It was simply more tiring than pulling the old ox her grandfather raised. The rumbling noise deep in the tomb passage indicated that the chamber was likely collapsing. They hadn’t run far when the tomb passage began to tremble, spider web-like cracks appearing, and it probably wouldn’t hold much longer. Fortunately, the end was in sight. Gu Youyou let go of the man’s arm and looked down. There was mud, and muddy footprints, which must mean the exit was near. She looked up and saw a vine hanging down from the hole above, with a hint of white light barely visible. No mistake, that was the long-missed daylight. Gu Youyou, overjoyed, turned back and pulled the man behind her, saying, "We have to climb out from here, can you do it?" The man just stared at her blankly, leaving her feeling like she was talking to a wall. Stones had begun to fall in the tomb passage, and there was no time left to waste. Gu Youyou shouted at the man, "Climbing up there is already the limit of what I can do. If you don’t want to climb by yourself, I can’t save you. I’m going up first, suit yourself!" Having said that, Gu Youyou gritted her teeth and, grabbing the vine, used all her strength to climb upwards. After emerging from the tree hole, Gu Youyou took a long breath. Relieved to have survived, she finally saw the daylight again, the long-missed sunlight, incredibly beautiful. Gu Youyou lay on the ground, forming the character "八" with her limbs, and laughed heartily. Until her sunlight was blocked by a face overhead, causing Gu Youyou to sit up in fright. Seeing the dazed man emerge, she laughed awkwardly, "So, you climbed up after all, huh?" Sёarᴄh the novёlF~ire.net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. The man had an angry expression on his stern face, and Gu Youyou noticed his right arm trembling slightly, blood dripping down. Gu Youyou, alarmed, said, "You’re injured?" The man suddenly grasped Gu Youyou’s neck with his other hand and snorted, "I saved you, and you left me behind? Are all women so heartless?" "What? You’re not acting dumb now?" How are these two things related? Gu Youyou was convinced that this man had intermittent dementia; pain seemed to bring him briefly back to his senses. Fearing he might actually strangle her, Gu Youyou hurriedly explained, "I didn’t leave you; I... Look at me, just a weak woman, managing to climb out was already impressive. How could I have pulled you out? I told you to climb first, but you didn’t! Hey, you made it out alright, didn’t you? It’s just a minor injury; I can treat it for you!"
