Abandoned Woman Busy Farming

Chapter 2102: Chapter 2100: Feng Cheng Appears

Fortunately, soon those mechanical puppet flying insects lost power and fell to the ground. If you look closely, the metal on their bodies is melting, corroded by poison.

There are still some flying slowly. Once everyone sees it’s safe, they immediately draw their swords to kill them cleanly.

Once the mechanical puppet insects were all dead, the people of Wei Hall finally retracted the barrier and let out a big sigh of relief.

The Tenth Elder picked up a mechanical puppet insect from the ground, took a closer look, and couldn’t help but sigh, ”Too terrifying! There’s actually something so precise and powerful.”

Xiu Shao wiped the sweat from his forehead and said, ”The power of these things is too great. When we set up the array, it was very strenuous. Do these mechanical beasts really have such great power? And its body is so small; how can it have such strength?”

The Tenth Elder shook his head. He couldn’t explain the reason either. All he knew was that these mechanical puppets did not exist in the Jiuli clan.

Bai Ruozhu kept silent. After all, she had promised Feng Cheng not to speak carelessly about things in the trial center. Otherwise, they would be so surprised if they knew there were such formidable mechanical puppets in the trial center too.

As a result, everyone’s mood worsened, and they even fell into a state of panic. Not only because of the changing scenery around them but also because these fast, powerful, and overwhelming puppet insects gave them too much of a shock. They didn’t know what would happen next and what kind of danger they would face.

Bai Ruozhu’s expression was obscure. She thought of the secrets in the trial center, where endless dangers were meant to prevent the Jiuli clan from reaching the central teleportation array, preventing them from knowing they were exiled sinners by another group. And here lies another secret realm, equally complex and fraught with dangers, unfathomable. Could it be that something is hidden here too?

Could there be another teleportation array in this central area of the secret? Bai Ruozhu thought it unlikely that two teleportation arrays would be placed in one place; wouldn’t that be redundant? These secret realms require massive amounts of puppet beasts, including mechanical arrays, which consume manpower and resources. She believed those people would not do such futile things, right? Could it be that this place leads to another place?

Suddenly, an idea popped up in her head: could the Jiuli clan merely be a transit point for them? They arrive at the Jiuli clan, then proceed to another place. But the secret realm hasn’t been opened for centuries; have these people stopped using it?

Unable to figure it out, Bai Ruozhu decided not to think too much about it and simply said, ”Since we can’t figure out anything now, let’s rest first. We need to replenish our energy for the journey tomorrow.”

Elder Su nodded, instructing everyone to rest well and not overthink; there’s always a way to solve the problem.

”Yes, with the protection of our Jiuli ancestors, heaven won’t doom us,” said the Fifth Elder.

Bai Ruozhu thought, what Jiuli ancestors, probably the mysterious Feng Cheng would be the one to save them.

She vaguely felt that at the trial center, she had kept her little life and delved deep enough to know some secrets, and Feng Cheng would appear to stop her. So as long as they were here, safe long enough, or approached the secrets here, perhaps Feng Cheng would come out to stop them.

Although Feng Cheng said he wouldn’t interfere in Jiuli’s internal affairs, appearing cold and indifferent, Bai Ruozhu knew he couldn’t kill the Jiuli people. His attitude after she and Fen Jizhi broke into the trial center was proof enough.

So, she thought it very likely that Feng Cheng would point out a way to send them out.

Thinking this through made her feel much relieved, and she didn’t feel as much pressure. Taking advantage of no one noticing, she entered the space in a flash.

Fortunately, Little Dengdeng and the others were already asleep. Tutu hopped over looking proud, and Bai Ruozhu thought for a moment and rewarded it with a red fruit.

Sure enough, the rabbit’s eyes lit up, and it crunched up the red fruit.

It seems to like the fruits of the forest. Bai Ruozhu instructed the rabbit a bit, telling it to take good care of Dengdeng and the others, promising more rewards in return. The rabbit nodded eagerly, stood on its hind legs, cupped its forepaws in a gesture of respect, looking so adorable that Bai Ruozhu’s heart melted.

After arranging everything, she was about to leave when suddenly she felt a gust of wind in the space. She was surprised; how could wind spontaneously arise in the space? What was happening today?

Then, a touch of pale color appeared, and Feng Cheng, dressed in white, materialized before her.

Bai Ruozhu was so startled she stepped back a few paces, asking, ”Why are you here?”

”It’s just a small world. As long as my power is greater than yours, I can tear a rift in your little world and then slip in. You don’t need to worry; I only want to tell you something and will leave after that. I won’t do anything to your place,” Feng Cheng said.

Bai Ruozhu secretly let out a sigh of relief, but inside she was muttering, a small world? Could space appear ordinary in their eyes? Seeing he wasn’t surprised, perhaps he also had space!

”So many of you coming to this secret realm, do you want to die? Do you know what this place is for?” Feng Cheng said, a bit angrily, but thinking of the Jiuli’s rebellion, he understood those who entered came to seek refuge, forced into a desperate situation.

His heart softened a bit, and he sighed again, continuing, ”Since you know quite a bit, you’ve mostly thought it through. I won’t hide it from you. The secret here is not something you should meddle with. If you discover something, or accidentally activate the array, or someone enters, it will lead to a catastrophe. So, if you have a chance, you must get out quickly!”

”How do we get out?” Bai Ruozhu asked excitedly, finally, someone to show the way.

Feng Cheng opened his mouth but then said, ”Now might not be the time to get out yet. If you leave now, you might still face death. It’s better to stay peacefully for a couple of days, and I’ll guide you out.”

”How to stay peacefully? The scenery changes suddenly, and at any moment a bunch of puppet beasts could appear; you might as well lose your life here. How to stay at peace?” Bai Ruozhu asked.

Feng Cheng suddenly laughed, the pale corners of his mouth pulling back, his face gaining some color, ”You’re not without a way. How many puppet beasts have you killed?”

Bai Ruozhu forced a couple of laughs, ”I didn’t mean to either. If I didn’t kill them, they would kill us. Didn’t you see someone getting a chunk of flesh bitten off their hand?”

Feng Cheng didn’t continue arguing with her about this, his face cooling again, ”This calamity the Jiuli faced should leave them badly weakened. Even if you suppress the rebellion of the Second Elder, it would be difficult to open the great barrier of the clan, but your second brother might be a breakthrough point, let him try!”
