Chapter 159 Entering the Flame Mountain
When everyone heard this, they rushed to the entrance of the passage, fearing that they would be left outside.
Mu Qingli and his group were not in such a hurry, so a quarter of an hour was enough.
Seeing that there were fewer people in front, Mu Qingli also walked over. In addition to the Star Team, Mu Qingchen and Xiao Lingwei also followed them.
"Li'er, let's go together."
A voice suddenly came from behind. Mu Qingli turned around and saw that it was Duanmu Lancang.
Duanmu Lancang was not alone. There was a man and a woman beside him. The man was Duanmu Lanjiang and the woman was Ji Yingxuan.
Ji Yingxuan is now 21 years old and is Duanmu Lanjiang's fiancée. She smiled at Mu Qingli and the others in a friendly manner:
"You must be Mu Qingli, right? Everyone around you has been talking about you these past few days. You really are as heroic as the rumors say."
Ji Yingxuan is a gentle person, and her face is full of sincerity as she wants to make friends with a few people.
Mu Qingli did not reject her and nodded slightly: "Thank you for the compliment, you are also very beautiful. We are friends with Lan Cang, so let's go in together."
Duanmu Lancang's eyelids drooped when he heard the word "friend", but he quickly smiled: "That's right, we can still take care of each other after we go in."
"Oh, you're still looking out for each other. If you come across something good, don't you want it? We're friends now, but we'll become enemies later."
A depressing voice was heard. It was Gongsun Cheng who spoke first. There were several people following him, some of whom Mu Qingli knew, and some of whom he had never seen before.
However, when Mu Qingli looked at Meng Fanlin and Zhao Junyue behind him, he didn't expect that they were actually hooking up with each other.
Meng Fanlin saw Mu Qingli looking at him and wanted to say something, but turned his head and saw Shangguan Xiyue standing beside him. He shuddered subconsciously and didn't say anything.
In addition to these two people, Mu Qingli also saw Liu Xiaoran and Shen Mengqi. He didn't know the other three boys. They were probably from Feiyu Country, specifically protecting Gongsun City.
"You should worry about yourself first. If you team up with these people, they'll probably start a fight before us."
Mu Qingli replied, turned and entered the passage, followed closely by Mu Qingchen and others.
Gongsun Cheng looked at the people who disappeared in front of him, gritting his teeth, wishing he could catch Mu Qingli right now.
But the most important thing now is to enter the Flaming Mountain first, and the rest of the grudges can be discussed after we get out.
He no longer hesitated and turned to step into the passage.
The passage was very long and one couldn't see the end at a glance. Mu Qingli and others were walking in front. Gongsun Cheng looked at Mu Qingli's back and had an urge to kick him.
If it weren't for Mu Qingli, his Golden Phoenix Ape would not have died, he would not have lost such a big person, and his father would not have expressed his disappointment in him.
Although he sent three people to protect him this time, Gongsun Cheng knew that if he did not bring the treasure back this time, his position as the crown prince might be unstable.
Liu Xiaoran seemed to see the uneasiness in Gongsun Cheng's heart, pursed his lips and said nothing.
If she hadn't been engaged to Gongsun Cheng since childhood, she wouldn't have followed Gongsun Cheng here.
Especially in this four-nation competition, Gongsun Cheng's rogue behavior made her feel a little disgusted.
She even wanted to tell her father to cancel the engagement, but she knew that her engagement was made by the royal family in order to win over her father, and she would never cancel it easily.
Unless... Gongsun Cheng has someone he has to marry.
Liu Xiaoran silently glanced at Shen Mengqi who was on the other side of Gongsun Cheng. She knew that Shen Mengqi had been pestering Gongsun Cheng, but she was just too lazy to pay attention to her.
Moreover, Gongsun Cheng's attitude was neither cold nor hot, and he kept Shen Mengqi hanging, making Shen Mengqi think that he liked her and willingly gave everything for him.
In her heart, she even hoped that Gongsun Cheng was really with Shen Mengqi.
Liu Xiaoran was not the only one who saw what Gongsun Cheng was thinking; Shen Mengqi was also there.
Shen Mengqi was not as patient as Liu Xiaoran. She would immediately vent her anger when she saw the person she loved being wronged.
Shen Mengqi strode forward with a heartless pace, and when she was about to get close to Mu Qingli, she kicked him.
Unexpectedly, Mu Qingli had already been on guard. When he noticed her following him, he paid special attention to her. When she stretched out her leg, he moved to the side.
Shen Mengqi lost control of her feet and fell into a split position, causing the muscles on her face to tremble in pain.
"Ah! Mu Qingli! Why are you hiding away?"
Mu Qingli felt as if he had heard a joke. It was surprising that such stupid words could come out of Shen Mengqi's mouth.
Liu Xiaoran also heard Shen Mengqi's questioning and slowed down his pace a little. He didn't want to stand with Gongsun Cheng anymore. He was affected by his stupid brain.
It is true that bad company breeds badness. Although Shen Mengqi was arrogant and domineering before, she would not say such stupid words. It is obvious who influenced her.
She looked at Mu Qingli with some concern, worried that she would suffer a loss. In fact, she liked Mu Qingli quite a bit.
Unfortunately, Mu Qingli ignored Shen Mengqi and just walked forward faster.
Shen Mengqi was filled with anger. She had just wanted to launch a sneak attack and embarrass Mu Qingli by surprise, but now she was the one who was embarrassed.
Seeing the group of people behind him pretending not to know him, his face was filled with annoyance and anger, but then he changed into a pitiful look, tears on the verge of falling: "Brother Cheng, Mu Qingli is too much. She actually dodged my foot. It's really too much!"
Gongsun Cheng didn't feel very comfortable either, but as he watched Mu Qingli walking farther and farther away, it seemed as if he would walk out of the passage in the next second.
"Qiqi, I know you're standing up for me, but now's not the time for revenge. Let's get out of here first. We'll talk about it later."
Gongsun Cheng reached out and pulled Shen Mengqi up, his face filled with pity. It was as if he felt deeply sorry for Shen Mengqi's huge injustice.
Shen Mengqi finally couldn't help herself and burst into tears, "Brother Cheng! Once we get to Flame Mountain, I'm going to find Mu Qingli!"
Gongsun Cheng also thought so. Once they went in, it would be impossible for all of them to stay together. As long as there was a chance, he would definitely capture Mu Qingli.
"Qiqi, don't worry, I will definitely avenge you!"
Gongsun Cheng spoke with great confidence, as if he was uttering some bold words.
Liu Xiaoran rolled her eyes in her heart. She was not here to flirt with them.
"Ah Cheng, let's get out quickly. There's no one left back here. If we don't get out by the time, we'll be locked up here for a long time."
Seeing the passage getting closer and closer to the exit, Liu Xiaoran was the first to walk in, followed closely by Gongsun Chengcheng and Shen Mengqi.
The Flame Mountain is worthy of its name. As soon as you step into it, a strong smell of fire spirit element hits you in the face. Mu Qingli feels that his fire spirit root becomes extremely excited and greedily absorbs this rich spiritual energy.
"Is this the Flaming Mountain? I feel like my water spirit roots have wilted."
