I am a swordsman in a strange city

Chapter 128 Entering the Netherworld

Pei Ju and Senior Sister Yu went to Qingdai Tower on Liujin Street.

He wasn't quite sure, but Qingdai Tower seemed to be located in a very important geographical location, and on the way there, he couldn't help but ask the question that had been bothering him.

“Every city has some places that can connect to the underworld. Although this Qingdai Tower is not an official place to connect to the underworld, it is a place that can be used by the general public without approval.”

Yu Shijie's words made him realize that Qingdai Tower was such a place.

The two arrived at Qingdai Tower, pushed open the door, and found that it was unlocked.

Pei Ju entered the building, took out the document, and turned to look at Senior Sister Yu, only to find that Senior Sister Yu had disappeared at some point.

He understood perfectly, so naturally he didn't call out to him or ask him anything.

He took out the documents and went to the depths of Qingdai Tower. He went up to the stage and stood in the center, looking around at the darkness. He then discovered that the entire building had a special layout. The stage was the center, and the whole building looked like a vortex spiraling downwards from here.

A strategically important location.

Pei Ju didn't look any further, but instead looked down at a step that seemed to be there by design.

Going down these steps feels like entering a cave.

He closed his eyes, holding the document in his hand.

One step, two steps, three steps, four steps, five steps, six steps, seven steps...

There weren't that many steps, but Pei Ju was still able to keep going down the stairs by following the same method.

He opened his eyes, and all he saw was darkness, yet he could vaguely make out some things.

He found himself seemingly in a rugged mountain cave, descending downwards.

His feet were on the edge of the last step. He looked back and saw only deep darkness, with steps that stretched upwards, seemingly reaching far beyond a dozen steps.

This was very similar to what he had seen a few days ago when he passed through that heavy gate in his sleep and entered the darkness, except that on that occasion, he encountered his senior sister.

Looking back, if it weren't for my senior sister leading the way, I don't know how far I would have gone.

Now, he didn't see Senior Sister Yu, but he was certain that she was right beside him.

Continuing down, there are no more steps, only rugged cave paths.

He didn't know how deep it was below; there seemed to be only one path, and he kept walking down it.

An idea suddenly popped into his head.

Thinking that he hadn't opened his eyes before, the steps could keep going down, and the cave steps were in an uncertain state.

The distance and depth are uncertain.

If you walk with your eyes closed, you can appear directly in the Five Immortals Cave?

As he walked, he suddenly saw a fork in the road ahead. Suddenly, he remembered the map he had seen in the 'Dark Cave Exploration' group.

He immediately chose the smaller road on the left. On the map, the first fork in the road was to choose the left road because there was a bright red cross at the end on the right. Although he didn't know what was there, since there was a cross, he decided not to go there.

He walked to the left, and then the road became narrower and narrower, and he couldn't help but wonder if he had made a mistake.

Fortunately, after walking for a while, the road suddenly widened again.

But suddenly a figure appeared in the darkness.

The person walked very slowly. Pei Ju could sense that after hearing the footsteps behind him, the person suddenly disappeared into a cave to the side.

Pei Ju couldn't see clearly who was walking into the darkness. When he reached the spot where the figure was hiding, he stopped and looked inside. He saw a figure shrink back. Since the other person didn't want to be seen, Pei Ju naturally wouldn't dig them out, but he still remained cautious.

Pei Ju continued walking forward step by step, slowly leaving this area, while a person emerged from the dark cave beside him.

She was emitting a faint white light, which came from the white fur on her body.

She was none other than Hu An'an from the previous cave exploration team, and now she was here.

Normally, it was normal for her to enter and exit the secluded cave, but this time, she walked very slowly because once she went in, she would not come out again; she was going to serve Seventh Grandmother.

Normally, after she transformed into a fox, she would be carried into the Five Immortals Cave by the next successor in a dazed state.

However, after the incident at the Rakshasa Spiritual Cultivation Academy, although Grandma Hu lost face at Pei Ju's hands, she still met Hu An'an. After seeing Hu An'an, Grandma Hu believed that Hu An'an's heart had wavered and that she was no longer suitable to be Seventh Grandma's servant. She should go to the Five Immortals Cave to serve her.

Hu An'an did not resist. After silently finishing her own business, she came in one by one.

She was walking very slowly, and Pei Ju caught up with her and overtook her.

She could see Pei Ju in the darkness, but she didn't want to talk to him.

More precisely, she didn't dare to speak to Pei Ju.

Because of what Pei Ju had said to her before, her heart wavered.

He said she could resist.

She had an idea in her mind, but after seeing her grandmother, that idea of ​​rebellion disappeared.

She continued walking forward, but then suddenly stopped.

Turning her head, she saw a shadow suddenly appear beside her.

A tall woman.

She was a female Taoist priest.

She wore a dark blue Taoist robe, carried a whisk in her hand, and wore a golden crown on her head. However, what made her feel mysterious and gave her a sense of dread was the black mask with interwoven patterns on her face.

The other person's eyes were fixed on her, and Hu An'an felt an overwhelming and uncontrollable fear rise in her heart.

Just as she was trembling and unable to speak, the mysterious and terrifying female Taoist priest chased after Pei Ju, but after only two or three steps, she disappeared into the darkness.

Hu An'an was certain that it wasn't because the darkness had engulfed them, but because the other party had concealed their presence.

Who is she?
Hu An'an didn't know.

She can know a lot of things, but often there are things that many people know that she doesn't know.

If someone asks her about something private, she will ask Grandma Hu. There are things that even everyone knows, but she doesn't know them because she often spends time alone.

She continued to walk down step by step.

But after walking for a short while, they heard footsteps behind them again.

She immediately hid, and soon she saw a group of people.

And they saw clearly that the group of people belonged to the Huang family.

They all exuded a murderous aura.
