I just broke up with my boyfriend and then I transmigrated into the world of "The Lost Tomb&quo

"Aren't you going down to take a look?" After several people went down, Ah Ning walked up to Xie Yuhua and asked.

Jieyuhua glanced at him but did not respond.

“Having only one path isn’t a good option. We should open a few more chains, since you’re carrying someone on your back. It won’t be convenient if you have to climb back up later. I apologize for what happened before; I’ll watch the body for you, and you go and find a new path for us. Consider it a collaboration. You’re running low on food, aren’t you? In return, I’ll share some with you. It’s a give-and-take, so you won’t lose out.” A-Ning’s words were clever; fearing Xie Yuhua wouldn’t believe her, she offered conditions, ultimately using food as leverage. After all, no matter how many people there were, Xie Yuhua couldn’t abandon the team’s lives here.

At the mention of food, Wu Xie's stomach growled rather pathetically. They didn't have much food, and they had been trapped here for several days. If they continued like this, they would only starve to death.

"I need food, and I can carry myself down myself." Xie Yuhua glanced at Wu Xie and began tying a rope around herself.

"It's just scouting. Once we clear the way, I'll have your men take him down. He's just a corpse. I, Aning, wouldn't threaten a worthless corpse." The implication was that she didn't believe Xie Yuhua would resort to any underhanded tactics.

Those ahead hadn't reached the bottom of the valley yet, and their fate was unknown. The chains around them were covered in talismans, so no one dared to venture further. The best light-footed person here was Jieyuhua, who had the highest chance of escaping if danger arose.

This seems reasonable, but Xie Yuhua is not so easily fooled. She said, "You have so many mercenaries who are willing to risk their lives for you. You have sent so many people down the mountain, yet you have not mentioned opening up new paths. Instead, you have set your sights on me. There are so many of our people here, not enough to blackmail you. Yet you only want Ling Xiao's corpse. Every word you say you don't want him, but every word you say you want him to stay. What are you up to?"

"Strike the snake at its vital point. Compared to a living person, this corpse is more important to you," A Ning replied with a smile, her eyes gleaming with coldness and determination.

Wu Xie was getting anxious and wanted to say something, but he didn't know how to start. Just then, a rustling sound came from below. Wu Xie's heart tightened, and he quickly looked down. He could faintly hear the fat man shouting from the darkness below: "The chains are loose!"

Wu Xie's expression changed drastically. He quickly lay down and peered over the edge of the cliff, trying to see what was below. In the dim light, he could vaguely see the thick iron chain swaying slightly, the sound coming from where the chain was rubbing against the rock face. Upon closer inspection, he realized that a link in the chain had loosened, causing the entire chain to lose its original stability.

Now it seems we have no choice but to explore other chains as well.

Without saying a word, Pan Zi stepped forward, casually tugged at a rope, and after finding it to be fairly sturdy, tied one end of the rope to the chain. He then gripped both ends of the rope tightly, turned his body, and slid down.

Such an action was undoubtedly suicidal. The rope was moving very fast, and sparks flew as it rubbed against the iron chain. The rope quickly caught fire, and the talismans on the iron chain flew around wildly. The sparks burned the talismans, and the other talismans also caught fire.

Pan Zi seemed to have not expected this. He just wanted to go down as quickly as possible to pull the two people on the other rope over. Fortunately, the burning range of these talismans was not large. It would have been more troublesome if there had been wind or something.

"Now, do you agree to my deal?" Aning extended a friendly invitation once again.
