Chapter 147 - Meeting Acquaintances

Jiu Shen with Xia Xinyue on his bossom landed on the grassy field outside of the mysterious cave. The pair saw a few dead bodies strewn all over the place which made Xia Xinyue a bit surprised. Jiu Shen merely took a quick glance at those corpses with his emotionless gaze before he walked straight towards the mouth of the mysterious cave.
"Lord Sect Master, are you here for this cave?" Xia Xinyue was truly curious about this. With the strength that Jiu Shen showed and his high and mighty identity, what could be inside this cave that suddenly moved his heart? She started to speculate, but she really had no idea what Jiu Shen was here for.
Jiu Shen turned his gaze to Xia Xinyue and replied in an indifferent tone. "This cave is an abode of a top expert, and hidden inside his lair are countless high-level treasures. I'm here for those treasures, so don't ask any more questions and just silently follow behind me."
Xia Xinyue sensed the impatience in his voice, so she promptly nodded her head in an obedient manner. In her mind, Jiu Shen was not someone who can be easily swayed by treasures, so her doubt increased when she heard his reply. 'Just what did he come here for?'
Jiu Shen used his spiritual power to scan the passage ahead of them. He can sense that more than a hundred cultivators had already gone inside, but Jiu Shen wasn't worried that they would take the God Stones since he had already seen the layout of this mysterious cave through his spiritual power.
This cave actually had ten levels in total, and the deeper one goes inside, the more treasures they would find. However, hidden inconspicuously within this cave were numerous traps that could even threaten an 8th-rank Divine realm expert. And if not for the long passage of time, these traps could have had the ability to even kill Nascent God Realm experts, but since so many years have already passed by, the power of these traps had greatly diminished.
Along the way, the pair saw a few bloody corpses that met their ends from those hidden traps. That's why their journey was rather carefree since most of the traps were already disabled by the cultivators that went inside earlier.
Xia Xinyue hid behind Jiu Shen and held the hem of his robes when she saw how those cultivators met their ends. Although she was already a peak stage 7th-rank Emperor realm expert, she was strangely meek and reliant if she was together with Jiu Shen. Furthermore, she could feel that her heart was at ease if she was near him, it was as if nothing could go wrong as long as this man was there for her.
This was a strange and new feeling for Xia Xinyue.
She had been cultivating diligently in the Ice Cloud Sword Sect for many years and she had no idea about the relationship between a man and a woman, so she could not understand the sensation she was feeling right now.
Just then.
Shua! Shua! Shua! Shua!
Dozens of bone arrows suddenly streaked towards them which instantly made Xia Xinyue went pale in shock. She could feel the strength behind these arrows and it was definitely enough to injure her severely and it could even possibly take her life. Although her life was at risk, she believed that Jiu Shen could easily ward off this attack, so she only let out a surprised shout without taking any further actions.
"Ahh!"
Jiu Shen didn't even bat an eye as they faced those bone arrows, and before those arrows could penetrate their bodies, they evaporated into thin air, leaving no traces behind.
Xia Xinyue's eyes widened when she saw that and she could not help but glance at Jiu Shen in awe, surprise, and bewilderment. He didn't even see how Jiu Shen moved, but those bones arrows weren't even able to touch their shadows...
Initially, Xia Xinyue wanted to ask how Jiu Shen managed to destroy those bone arrows, but when she recalled his words earlier, she immediately decided to swallow down her curiosity.
As the pair moved deeper inside the mysterious cave, the corpses that they encountered increased.
"Pay attention to your surroundings. We've already reached the second level of the cave and this place is much more dangerous than the first level. The hidden traps here are many times deadlier than that one earlier." Jiu Shen grabbed Xia Xinyue's hand and pulled her closer to him.
Xia Xinyue nodded her head while pursing her lips.
Earlier, Jiu Shen tried controlling the space element to arrive inside the tenth level right away, but it seemed as if there was a strong formation that prevented him from using his power to control space. So he had no choice but to go through all levels and he even had to take care of Xia Xinyue long the way.
After walking for several minutes, they could finally see the cultivators who had gone inside the mysterious cave earlier than them. There were only a little more than a hundred of them left and they all appeared to be in a sorry state.
After staring at them for a brief moment, Jiu Shen was a bit surprised since he saw a few acquaintances among the group, but when he looked at the injuries all over their bodies, Jiu Shen knew that they definitely had a tough time surviving.
"Let's go." Jiu Shen pulled Xia Xinyue's dainty hand, causing the lady to produce a light sound of protest, but she didn't pull her hand away from Jiu Shen's grip.
Hu Xiandao's ears suddenly twitched and he immediately turned around to check the situation, but when he saw Jiu Shen walking towards them, he could not help but feel a bit stunned. "Wine Master Jiu!?" He exclaimed in surprise.
Hu Xiandao's voice wasn't that loud, but the volume of his voice was loud enough for everyone to hear it, so these cultivators instantly turned around to see what's going on. And when they saw the two persons walking nonchalantly towards them, they felt a bit indignant in their hearts since they had gone through fire and water just to reach this place, but the both of them didn't even appear to be injured.
The bald man frowned when he saw the unharmed Jiu Shen and Xia Xinyue. He had already been pressing down his rage since they had gone inside this damnable cave, and now he saw that this pair was totally unharmed, and this made his anger soar, so he strode towards Jiu Shen and Xia Xinyue with bloodshot eyes.
"Friends, did you intentionally let us go inside the cave first to disable the traps for you? The both of you are unharmed because we have already disabled all the traps on the first level! You wretched couple!" The bald man could no longer hold back his rage as he spat out those cold words.
Jiu Shen didn't even spare a glance at him and continued walking towards the severely injured Boss Scar and his buddies. To his surprise, all of them were alive and this perplexed him a bit, but when he saw Hu Xiandao standing together with them, he suddenly understood what had happened.
Hu Xiandao must have protected Boss Scar's group from the traps of the first level.
Jiu Shen casually threw a couple of healing pills to them and nodded his head at Hu Xiandao as if he was praising his actions.
Hu Xiandao smiled foolishly as he stared at Jiu Shen's figure with a look of worship.
Not far from them, the bald man who was ignored glanced murderously at Jiu Shen and Xia Xinyue.
