Tomb Raiders: She Comes from the Ancient Martial Arts World

Wu Xie did not stay there any longer.

Ling Yue watched Wu Xie leave, then turned around and saw Su Nan swimming towards her.

Facing Ling Yue, Su Nan jokingly asked, "Our Lord Guan was completely dumbfounded by you just now. So, what do you think, is there something going on between you and him?"

Ling Yue asked curiously, "Why would you think that? Shouldn't you think that Li Cu and I are more likely to be together?"

After all, Ling Yue had taken good care of Li Cu along the way.

Although it has nothing to do with romantic love, Ling Yue thought that if a man in this group had to be involved with her, shouldn't Li Cu be the first person she thought of?

Su Nan chuckled, making no attempt to hide her laughter: "Him? A little kid. I don't believe you would actually be interested in such a childish boy."

Although he had never been interested in anyone, that didn't stop Ling Yue from talking nonsense.

She put what she learned into practice and remembered what Li Cu had said: "When you're young, you don't know how good fresh meat is, and you mistakenly think that cured meat is a treasure. I think young and fresh meat is pretty good."

Ling Yue is a trendy time traveler who knows what "little fresh meat" means.

Seeing Ling Yue's earnest explanation, Su Nan's smile faded as she smiled.

Could it be that she was wrong?

She had initially thought it would be a bit tricky. If Wu Xie suddenly had a mysterious and highly skilled expert like Ling Yue by her side to help her, she doubted whether she could still complete her mission.

But if Ling Yue really has feelings for Li Cu, then she has a way to separate this expert from Wu Xie.

After all, Li Cu was simply too weak.

Unaware that his casual remark had drawn even more hatred towards the innocent and pitiful Li Cu, Ling Yue's attention was entirely focused on "back".

What exactly does southern Jiangsu want to see?

Would her feared enemy have some kind of mark on their back?

What Su Nan fears is that someone will appear by Wu Xie's side to help him.

That means that Wu Xie had some experts with markings on their backs who made Su Nan and the others wary.

Su Nan suspects that she is also one of "some"?

Indeed, after Ling Yue repeatedly demonstrated his extraordinary martial prowess, Su Nan's first thought was of the Zhang family.

Zhang Qilin, the patriarch of the Zhang family, who once single-handedly made the Wang family wary for many years!

After playing in the water for a while, Su Nan invited Ling Yue to go for a sunbath. Now that Ling Yue knew Su Nan's purpose, he had no interest in continuing to go along with her wishes.

Therefore, he immediately relapsed into his old habit, treating others as if they were invisible, perfectly embodying the aloof and arrogant demeanor, and turned around to continue swimming and diving.

Su Nan, who had previously thought Ling Yue wasn't that difficult to deal with, gritted her teeth inwardly, thinking to herself that this person really was like the Zhang family, so aloof and superior!

Su Nan, who was still thinking about how to get the person up in the sun to raise their body temperature so she could check for tattoos, suddenly felt a sharp pain all over her body. She frowned and endured it for a while, but the pain became more and more obvious.

It quickly reached a point where it became unbearable.

Despite the excruciating pain, Su Nan didn't forget her purpose and immediately asked Ling Yue for help: "Ling Yue, I'm in so much pain and I have no strength left. Can you help me up?"

Ling Yue thought she was faking it, but when he looked back, Su Nan was indeed in so much pain that her face was pale and her forehead was covered in cold sweat.

Suddenly remembering the live worm inside Wu Xie's body, and thinking of Master Zeng and Boss Ma, Ling Yue suspected that Su Nan had also been infected. He immediately swam over, put his arm around Su Nan's waist, and brought her ashore.

Su Nan wanted to see Ling Yue's back, but Ling Yue simply wrapped the two of them in a shawl, picked her up, and hurried towards the inn.

Su Nan was in so much pain that he could only barely open his eyes to look at her body.

Even after being exposed to the sun, the exposed skin remained fair and clean.

I don't know if the tattoo wasn't showing because my body temperature hadn't risen yet, or if it was showing but was covered by the shawl.

Or perhaps Ling Yue doesn't have any tattoos at all.

In short, I schemed to escape loneliness.

Upon entering the inn, Su Nan coughed up blood and passed out completely.

Wu Xie, Li Cu, Wang Meng, Lulu, and others who were sitting at the dining table in the lobby quickly got up and came over. Even Garu, who was pretending to be stupid, had a flicker in his eyes.

Wang Meng called out to Lao Mai a few times. Lao Mai and the others heard the noise and quickly went downstairs to take the unconscious Su Nan back to her room upstairs.

Ling Yue's shawl was stained with blood. She went upstairs to her room to change her clothes, and then went straight to the next room to tell Wu Xie, "The worms in her body have grown up very quickly."

When they returned, Ling Yue took the opportunity to check Su Nan's pulse.

Wu Xie nodded: "It seems it is indeed related to water."

Upon hearing this, Wang Meng nervously collected all the tea on the table, determined not to let the boss drink another drop.

Li Cu was still shaken, pressing her stomach as if she could feel worms crawling around inside.

Wu Xie hooked his arm around Li Cu's neck and pulled him outside: "Come on, let's go work together!"

Li Cu wanted to talk to Ling Yue, but she complained unhappily, "What kind of work is this? What kind of work is there to do here?"

Wang Meng obediently followed along.

Ling Yue was curious, so he followed along.

Then they discovered that Wu Xie had actually taken Li Cu and Wang Meng to dig up Ye Xiao's grave.

Seeing Wu Xie's unusually skilled movements while digging the grave, Ling Yue casually remarked, "You seem quite adept at digging graves. Have you ever been involved in tomb raiding?"

Wang Meng, who was standing next to him, let out a tremendous cough.

Wu Xie also looked up, his expression unreadable.

Li Cu chuckled foolishly, "That's right, Wu Xie, you don't look like a good person at all, you're practically a lawless outlaw!"

How dare they shamelessly claim to be law-abiding citizens?

Even Ling Yue could tell he wasn't a good person, haha!

Ling Yue was just saying it casually. After all, the previous underground palace and the current grave digging both looked like grave robbing. And the leader of these things was Wu Xie, whether openly or secretly.

How could Ling Yue not feel moved by this?

But looking at Wang Meng's reaction and then at Wu Xie's expression, Ling Yue's casual stance with his hands on his hips slowly changed.

She stared at Wu Xie, giving him a suspicious once-over.

Although he didn't say anything more, the meaning on his face was clear: No way, you wouldn't really be...

If her acting skills weren't at the level of an international film queen, Wu Xie could believe, based on just this one expression, that Ling Yue really wasn't a member of the Wang family, nor was he a member of the underworld.

Otherwise, who wouldn't know how the Wu family made their fortune? Who wouldn't know how the trio of the Wu family's youngest master and the chubby young man became famous?

As if he had found the answer in Wu Xie's eyes, Ling Yue frowned and fell into deep thought.

Wang Meng dared not breathe loudly, burying her head and digging the grave with great effort.

Li Cu looked left and right, and for some reason, he had a feeling that the atmosphere was not good.

Out of its instincts as a small animal, it dared not continue to cackle.

The grave-digging site fell silent for a moment.

After Ye Xiao was dug out, Wu Xie urged Li Cu to help carry him back.

On their way back, they happened to run into the crew trying to sneak away, but they were caught by Lao Mai and his men. The three girls fled in a sorry state, while Zeng Ye, who was in very poor health, was left on the ground in pain and convulsing.

Ling Yue frowned, stepped forward and scooped Zeng Ye up. Seeing that Lao Mai was still relentlessly chasing after the fruit, Ling Yue lowered his eyes and kicked a pebble away.

The sound of something cutting through the air was sharp and piercing. Old Mai felt a sharp pain in his knee, and his whole body involuntarily slumped to the ground on one knee.

She turned her head and glared angrily, only to meet Ling Yue's icy gaze: "If I see you again, you can die."

Old Mai was so frightened that he instantly lost all his arrogance in front of the crew. He was covered in cold sweat and quickly apologized, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I will never do it again, I, I will never dare to do it again!"

Her gaze could truly kill him!

Although he had killed people himself, Old Mike knew what that look meant.

That is an absolute disregard for human life, treating human life as worthless as ants!

To ordinary people, killing those few people makes him seem like a vicious villain.

But in the eyes of such people, it's not worth mentioning at all!

Guozi didn't know what Lao Mai was thinking. She only knew that Ling Yue had saved them again. She couldn't help but break down and sat on the ground crying. She sobbed and called out Ling Yue's name. It was unclear whether she wanted to ask Ling Yue for help or what.

At this moment, all she knew was to call out Ling Yue's name, and that gave her enough sense of security to keep living.

Grandpa Zeng also weakly opened his eyes and said thank you to Ling Yue with difficulty.

If it weren't for Ling Yue, several of them might have died when the camp collapsed earlier.

The kindness shown later, the kindness of not abandoning me after I fainted in the desert, and now.

In fact, if it weren't for Ling Yue intimidating Old Mai and his group, they probably...
