Chapter 415: Li Yan: You’re Only Allowed to Leave for Half an hour

Sun Tianhao smiled insincerely. “If you can’t win, just say it. Why are you making so many excuses?”
After saying that, he smashed the wine jar in his hand to the ground. A strong alcohol smell assaulted their noses.
The people from both sides stood behind the two of them. The atmosphere was tense.
At this moment, Sun Tianhao turned around and walked towards Chu Luo and Li Yan. As he walked, he threatened, “Duanmu Tian, I advise you to go back and have a good sleep tonight. Otherwise, if you can’t take it after entering the desert, don’t blame us for leaving you behind.”
With that, he strode away.
After dark, the temperature suddenly turned cold.
Unexpectedly, it started snowing at this time.
Chu Luo and Li Yan stood up when Sun Tianhao walked over.
Sun Tianhao said to Chu Luo, “Let’s leave together tomorrow.”
Li Yan replied, “We’ll leave later.”
Sun Tianhao glared at him in dissatisfaction. “It’s safer for you to follow the main group. Everyone will take care of each other along the way. The desert isn’t like other places. How many people can you have? What if you encounter a sandstorm or something?”
Li Yan couldn’t be bothered to answer him. He wrapped his arm around Chu Luo’s shoulder and left.
When she walked to Sun Tianhao’s side, she said in a low voice, “Think about how to keep an eye on the Duanmu family and the Qin family first.”
With that, the two of them left first.
Sun Tianhao stood there and thought for a while. He turned around and shouted at his men, “Brothers, let’s go back.”
After shouting, he walked in the other direction.
Looking at the two groups of people who had left, one of them asked Duanmu Tian, “Young Master Duanmu, do you want us to teach those two a lesson?”
Duanmu Tian looked at him coldly. “Don’t you think Zhang Donglai wasn’t beaten up badly enough today?”
When that person heard this, he suddenly shivered and stopped talking.
Duanmu Tian shook his head, which was a little dizzy from the alcohol. With a dark expression, he said to everyone, “If you don’t want to lose an arm or leg, come back with me immediately. Don’t loiter outside.”
With that, he shook his head and left.
The moment Chu Luo and Li Yan walked away from the bonfire, cold air assaulted them from all directions.
Li Yan unbuttoned his coat and walked with his arms around Chu Luo.
Chu Luo looked at him and said, “It’ll be cold if you undo your clothes.”
“No. I drank a little wine before. I’m very warm.”
When Chu Luo heard this, she deliberately placed her hand on his chest. Indeed, she felt the heat emanating from his body.
“No one from the Qin family showed up tonight. Looks like the Duanmu family is really arrogant.”
“They want to leave with the Sun family army. Tonight, Duanmu Tian came just to test the Sun family’s attitude. Maybe Third Master Duanmu had already talked to Third Master Sun about this while we were eating barbecue.”
Li Yan’s guess was quickly confirmed. The moment the two of them walked back, a bodyguard came over to report to Li Yan. “Master, Third Master Duanmu went to look for Third Master Sun alone tonight.”
“What did they talk about?”
“Third Master Duanmu wants to leave with the Sun family army.”
“What’s Third Master Sun’s attitude?”
“Third Master Sun agreed.”
Li Yan gestured for him to leave.
The two of them returned to their bedroom.
Chu Luo was a little puzzled. “I thought Third Master Sun wouldn’t agree.”
One had to know that the civilian and military positions had always been at odds. Moreover, Third Master Sun had an explosive temper. When the time came, if the people from the other two families didn’t listen to orders, they would definitely be dealt with. Under such circumstances, Chu Luo was a little surprised that they still wanted to leave with the Sun family.
“The Sun family originally planned to monitor the Duanmu family. If nothing goes wrong, the Qin family will look for Third Master Sun later.”
“That’s good too. When the time comes, with people monitoring these two families, it’ll be difficult to play dirty.”
“Yes.”
…
Snowflakes fluttered that night.
The sun rose here at nine or ten in the morning.
When the two of them got up, the bodyguard reported.
“Master, the Sun, Qin, and Duanmu families have already left half an hour ago.”
“We’ll leave in an hour.”
“Yes.”
After the two of them ate, Li Yan brought Chu Luo to a truck parked beside them.
The truck was covered with a cloth and they couldn’t see what was inside.
“It’s filled with water. How much can you store there?”
Chu Luo pointed at the entire car. “It can fit everything.”
After saying that, she took out the Heaven-and-Earth pouch and opened it facing the car.
In the blink of an eye, the water in the entire car went into her pouch.
Li Yan had always known that this thing on her could hold many things. Still, he was surprised to see it could hold such a huge load of water.
After Chu Luo put away the Heaven-and-Earth pouch, she asked, “Why are we bringing so much water?”
Li Yan replied, “For you to bathe.”
When Chu Luo heard this, the corners of her lips couldn’t help but curl up.
An hour later, Chu Luo and the others set off.
The group drove the car and motorcycle first, while the camel ran behind them. It was a relatively easy ride.
When it was three to four in the afternoon, they had already traveled one to two hundred kilometers.
At this moment, the desert was still calm.
However, after driving for more than an hour, it wasn’t that easy traveling by car anymore.
Lu Feng told the two of them, “We’re dozens of kilometers away from the Karst landscape. This road is filled with rolling sand hills. Moreover, the sand on this road is soft. It will sink with a little load, making the car very oil-consuming.”
Li Yan asked the chauffeur, “How much oil do we have left?”
“There are two barrels of oil on each car. If we travel according to the current terrain, we’ll have to stop the car after traveling for dozens of kilometers at most. Only then will there be enough oil to make the return trip.”
“Then drive to a place near the Karst landscape.”
“Yes.”
Unexpectedly, the car took nearly three hours to travel that tens of kilometers.
Looking at the weathered landform in front of them, one couldn’t help but sigh at the incredible workmanship of nature.
The parking spot was pointed out by Lu Feng.
When the group of cars drove over, they realized that there were already hundreds of cars and motorcycles parked there.
Li Yan put on a mask and veil for Chu Luo before getting out of the car. Seeing so many cars, Chu Luo couldn’t help but sigh. “There are so many cars. Looks like there were really a lot of people who came before, but… why did everyone park their cars here? Didn’t anyone drive around this Karst landscape?”
“No,” Lu Feng told her. “Anyone with experience will know. A detour might take a few days.”
The terrain in the desert was just so magical.
Chu Luo nodded.
At this moment, Li Yan moved the communicator on his ear and said to everyone, “Everyone, get ready. We’ll go in immediately.”
Everyone carried their mountain bikes and held their camels as they walked towards the entrance to the Karst landscape.
Looking at the strange rocks inside, Chu Luo said as she walked, “According to logic, such terrain shouldn’t appear in the desert. I didn’t expect there to be such a large area here.”
“This used to be an oasis.”
Chu Luo understood.
After everyone had walked for nearly half an hour, Lu Feng gestured for everyone to stop.
“What’s wrong?” Chu Luo asked.
“The terrain here has changed. I came here a few years ago. It’s no longer the same as I remembered.”
There were roads everywhere here, but if one took the wrong path, they would end up walking on a blocked path. At a time like this, an experienced person had to lead the way.
Lu Feng took out something that looked like a compass from his arms and held it in his hand. He lay on the ground and first turned that thing before sticking his ear to the ground and listening.
After about a minute, he stood up and pointed at a path. “Take this path.”
After saying that, he led them towards the path.
After walking for more than half an hour, Chu Luo said strangely, “Along the way, we actually didn’t discover any traces of the people who came in before us. Looks like it’s true that there’s a huge maze inside.”
“Can you tell what array this is?”
“I can’t tell for now. This isn’t a man-made maze. Actually, it’s really not a maze either. It’s just a geological movement. I need to know the geological trajectory inside.”
Li Yan nodded and didn’t ask further.
Everyone walked for a while more. When it was almost dark, Lu Feng said to the two of them, “We can’t go any further for today. We have to set up the tent before it gets dark. At night, the wind is very strong here, and there are very terrifying sounds.”
“What terrifying sounds?”
“It’s the strange sound of the wind blowing through these cracks in the rocks. It sounds especially terrifying. When you sleep at night, stuff your ears. Otherwise, you might not be able to sleep all night.”
Li Yan quickly found a flat place and everyone gathered around to set up a tent.
Chu Luo asked Lu Feng, “The wind is so strong at night. Will there be a sandstorm?”
“Yes, but it will be blocked outside. The sand can’t enter.”
When Chu Luo heard this, she already knew what to do. While Li Yan was setting up the tent with everyone, she quickly walked around and said to Li Yan, “Yan, I want to take a look and see what array is inside.”
If she could find the pattern of this array, they would be able to walk out quickly.
Li Yan was a little worried about her.
Chu Luo shook her wrist at him to show him the Phoenix Seal on it. She stood on tiptoes and said in his ear, “There’s a red light left behind by the Phoenix in your body. Unless you leave this space-time, I can find you wherever you are.”
Li Yan was relieved to hear that, but he still made a request. “You’re only allowed to leave for half an hour.”
“Okay.”
Chu Luo walked away after saying that.
