BXBX NOVEL Chapter 1343
Chu Liuyue said, "Thank you for your guidance, Ancestor. I understand. Then, where do you think we should head toward now?"
Shangguan Jing pointed out a direction.
Chu Liuyue slowly opened her eyes, and deep thoughts flashed across her mind. There must be a certain logic to Ancestor\'s words. Since he has said so much… What\'s the harm of trying? After all, even Elder Hua Feng and the rest have no other methods in such a hellish place.
…
An hour quickly passed.
The group of them stood up and prepared to leave.
Elder Hua Feng looked at Jiang Zhiyuan. "Where should we go next?"
Jiang Zhiyuan took a look and pointed in a direction. "I think… it\'s there."
The sky was dark. Luckily, the accumulated snow above the ground reflected a faint light, so one could forcefully see the direction clearly.
"Let\'s go!" With Elder Hua Feng\'s command, the crowd started walking in that direction.
"Hold on," said Chu Liuyue suddenly.
Elder Hua Feng glanced at her. "Chu Yue, what\'s the matter?"
Chu Liuyue hugged her arm with one hand, and the other held her chin. She thought for a moment before saying, "I don\'t think it\'s that direction. Let\'s go there instead."
As she spoke, she pointed in another direction.
The crowd was stunned in unison and exchanged glances. W-what\'s going on?
Only Jiang Zhiyuan\'s expression changed slightly after she saw this scene.
"Chu Yue, what are you talking about?" Elder Hua Feng couldn\'t help but laugh, "Do you want to walk there?"
Chu Liuyue blinked. "Yeah. For some reason, I just feel that that place might be safer."
Seeing that Chu Liuyue didn\'t seem like she was kidding, Elder Hua Feng\'s expression froze for a moment. "Uh… but Jiang Zhiyuan said there—"
"Jiang Zhiyuan\'s words might not be right either. Didn\'t she say that she doesn\'t remember anything clearly just now? Who knows if she coincidentally remembered the opposite direction?" At the side, Shi Rui\'er suddenly spoke and raised her chin toward Chu Liuyue. "Chu Yue, tell us—why do you want to change direction?"
Chu Liuyue paused. "No reason. It\'s just my instincts."
Shi Rui\'er stared into her eyes for some time and nodded. "Okay, then we\'ll go according to your direction."
"No!" Jiang Zhiyuan suddenly raised her voice. It was so shrill that it was slightly piercing.
Seeing the crowd all look over toward her, she then realized that she had lost her composure. She lowered her voice again. "I-I remember it very clearly that it\'s there. The Flood-Desert Northern Region is very dangerous. If we go the wrong way, the consequences are unimaginable."
"Senior Sister Jiang, I\'m just saying that we can walk there too. Why are you so agitated?" Chu Liuyue raised her brows.
Jiang Zhiyuan\'s back was filled with cold sweat as she forced a smile. "Nothing. I was just worried about everyone\'s safety. After all, there\'s so many of us. If something happens, who is going to bear the responsibility?"
Hearing her say this, the other elders all believed it.
"Chu Yue, Jiang Zhiyuan is right. We really can\'t randomly walk anywhere in this place. No matter what, she still escaped alone, so her route should be right. Let\'s walk there."
"Yeah! In this land filled with snow, who knows what traps are hidden underneath? Let\'s not risk it, okay?"
Hearing this, Chu Liuyue wasn\'t angry either as she smiled faintly. I can naturally understand why they would think this way and say such things. If it weren\'t for Ancestor, I wouldn\'t jump up and say such words. However, it is useless to tell them about this.
Chu Liuyue\'s gaze turned, and she looked at Elder Hua Feng. "Elder, do you trust me?"
Elder Hua Feng was dazed. "Of course, I believe you—"
Suddenly, his voice trailed off, and he squinted his eyes. Chu Yue is so persistent, so he clearly isn\'t doing this on impulse. Could it be… that he knows something? He has the red-gold heavenly phoenix with him. Perhaps… this is the red-gold heavenly phoenix\'s advice?
Elder Hua Feng thought for a while and finally said, "We\'ll listen to you this time. Let\'s try walking over there!"
"Elder Hua Feng?!" Jiang Zhiyuan looked at him in disbelief. "You really decided that?"
This is a major issue that concerns everyone\'s lives! He actually believed Chu Yue so easily? This is too immature!
The other elders were also surprised.
Elder Hua Feng laughed and said, "There\'s nothing serious about going over to take a look. If something happens, we can just come back again!"
The crowd fell into a momentary silence. Listen to what he\'s saying… What if we don\'t have the time and strength to run back? Then, won\'t we all die there?
But although Elder Hua Feng seemed like he was smiling and harmonious, those who understood him knew that he had already made up his mind.
Seeing that Elder Hua Feng and Shi Rui\'er had agreed to walk in Chu Liuyue\'s direction, even if the rest had opinions, there was no use. Hence, they swiftly agreed.
The most anxious one was Jiang Zhiyuan. However, her previous reaction was too big and had already aroused suspicions from Shi Rui\'er and the rest. If she forcefully objected again, perhaps…

Helpless, she could only choose to keep quiet and follow the crowd from behind.
The group of them rapidly went in the direction Chu Liuyue pointed.
The further they walked, the more anxious Jiang Zhiyuan was as she kept thinking of how to convince everyone to go back. However, everyone didn\'t really talk, and nothing much happened on the way, so she couldn\'t say anything.
Hence, after walking a while, the horizon appeared in the skies.
Shi Rui\'er couldn\'t help but smile and say, "Chu Yue, it seems like the direction you picked is indeed pretty good—"
Hula!
Before she could finish her sentence, something suddenly rushed out of the snowy ground in front of her. It caused a huge commotion and ran straight toward the crowd!
