Deep Beneath the Earth

"Time is short, let's go."

Dan Chen walked over and patted Song Ye on the shoulder. "If all goes well, we'll be back within a month. You don't need to worry about Xi'er."

Song Ye smiled lightly. "I'm fine. Xi'er is not a child anymore; she can take care of herself. Let's go."

With that, Song Ye turned and jumped into the blood hole behind him without looking back. Dan Chen and Corpse-Gulping Mouse followed closely.

After a while, as they continued to descend, Song Ye noticed Dan Chen still controlling the giant python to go deeper and asked, "Dan Chen, how much deeper do we need to go?"

"This is, after all, Pang Xuan's territory. There might be formations or restrictions under the outer walls of Moonmount City, so the deeper we go, the better. Let's keep going for a bit."

Dan Chen controlled the giant python to quickly plunge deeper into the ground. Soon, they reached a depth of two thousand feet. "At this depth, leaving the city shouldn't be too dangerous."
