Chapter 1873 Purpose and Conditions
Chapter 1873 Purpose and Conditions
Although he didn't say it clearly, Chu Yang naturally knew who the "they" the woman was talking about were.
It was those indescribable black shadows in the sky.
Although he was surprised that someone other than himself knew about Sombra, now was not the time to think about such things.
Judging from what he just said, the other party obviously knows a lot more about the underground world than he, a newcomer.
Just those words made him full of doubts.
Seeing his expression, the woman couldn't help but chuckle and said:
"It's too conspicuous here. Let's talk somewhere else. Follow me."
As soon as she finished speaking, her figure suddenly disappeared from where she was.
Although she disappeared directly, Chu Yang could clearly sense the trajectory of her actions.
This was obviously done intentionally by the woman so that he could keep up with her.
This saves much time and effort than leading the way directly.
But of course Chu Yang couldn't believe this strange woman's words.
Although the other person does look quite to his liking and is the type he likes, he is no longer the kind of Chu Ge who can be fooled by appearance.
In this world, no matter how trustworthy another person’s words may be, one cannot trust them all.
He still understands this truth very well.
Therefore, Chu Yang was ready to escape at any time before following the woman's footsteps.
After being completely prepared, he followed the scent that the woman had specially left behind.
.........
It took about half an hour before Chu Yang finally arrived at the conversation place designated by the woman - an antique-looking courtyard.
The other party was already sitting in the pavilion waiting for him.
Glancing around, Chu Yang couldn't help but frown slightly.
To be honest, although it didn't take long, this place was much farther than he expected.
There is no trace of Fengdu City at all in this place.
I don’t know what the point of rushing here to talk is.
But Chu Yang soon discovered the mystery here.
The appearance of the courtyard itself is not unusual at all, but the atmosphere here is completely different from other places in the underground world.
There was no such strange power as he had sensed before, and it was no different from other places in Xuanling Continent.
If he hadn't been convinced that he was still in the underground world, he might have thought he had arrived outside.
That's all. The most important thing is that those strange black shadows and black fog in the sky have disappeared, replaced by the familiar blue sky and white clouds.
"How about this? Isn't this a good place?"
Seeing that he had arrived, the woman looked at him with slightly raised corners of her mouth.
"They won't notice if you talk here."
Chu Yang didn't say much, nodded and walked to the pavilion and sat opposite the woman.
The woman glanced at him and said seriously:
"I think you still have many doubts in your mind. Don't worry, I will answer them for you one by one - but you have to help me instead."
"What do you want to do?"
Chu Yang narrowed his eyes slightly.
After all, he really couldn't guess what the other party's purpose was and that he still needed his help.
Not only that, the woman herself is a mystery.
Not only is he extremely powerful, he also seems to know a lot of secrets about the underground world, and he doesn't know what his identity is.
Of course, what he cares most about is the other party's purpose.
Since they want to bring him into the group, it means that the other party's purpose is not simple, and even the hope of realizing it is extremely slim.
Even with his help, there might not be much hope of achieving it.
Chu Yang didn't want to waste too much meaningless time here, so he had better understand the other party's purpose first.
The woman obviously knew what he was thinking, and sighed:
"It's normal for you to have concerns. To be honest, it's really difficult to achieve my goal, but I have to do it."
After sighing, she continued:
"You can also see those black shadows in the sky, right? My purpose...mission is to eliminate them all and restore this place to normal."
Upon hearing this, Chu Yang suddenly thought to himself, "Sure enough, that's true."
Although he had no idea what the woman's purpose was before, he suddenly felt that it was very reasonable when the other party actually said it.
It was precisely with such a purpose that he felt it was as difficult as climbing to the sky, and wanted to involve him, a person who could also see black shadows, into the group.
However, Chu Yang keenly captured the words in the woman's mouth.
"Task?"
"That's right, it's the mission."
The woman nodded happily.
"If I don't get rid of them, I will be trapped in this ghost place for the rest of my life, and I will eventually be slowly eaten away by them."
"Could it be that……"
Hearing these words, Chu Yang suddenly felt a sense of déjà vu.
Seeing his confused look, the woman couldn't help but chuckle and said:
"How about it, are you curious? If you promise to help me, I will tell you everything I know."
Finding that Chu Yang was still hesitant, she continued to add:
"Don't worry, if there is really no chance, I can send you away safely."
To be honest, Chu Yang really wanted to agree.
He is a very curious person, and he is also very interested in this underground world.
At this moment, a person who could answer many questions for him was sitting in front of him. How could he suppress his curiosity?
It's just that he has been in this underground world for a few days, and he already has a certain understanding of the situation here.
There is no doubt that this underground world is extremely dangerous and not as stable as rumored.
But the source of danger is not other monks, but the black mist and shadows in the sky.
Even though he only took a glance at it at the beginning, Chu Yang still remembered the horror of those black shadows.
To put it bluntly, even the sand spirit known as the patron saint of the desert may not be Heiying's opponent, let alone a monk who is below the average level of his realm.
Not to mention helping the woman in front of me who didn't know where she came from to deal with the black shadow, it would be good to leave the underground world safely.
Moreover, there is not just one black shadow in the sky, but at least a dozen.
Even if his strength is indeed similar to that of Sombra, it is impossible for him to defeat many with one person.
Including this woman, there were only two of them.
Not to mention the other monks who couldn't even see the shadows, they would definitely be of no use at all.
Not to mention dealing with those black shadows together, they probably wouldn't even believe the black shadows.
Thinking of this, Chu Yang couldn't help but ask:
"Do you have other helpers?"
"Do not."
The woman answered very decisively.
"You're the first person I've met in all these years who can see them."
"...Then how can we destroy them just by the two of us?"
Although he could probably guess it, Chu Yang was still a little speechless when he heard this answer.
"Do we have to keep waiting?"
Hearing this, the woman suddenly showed a slightly embarrassed smile.
"I've done a lot of work over the years. Even if it's just the two of us, we should be able to do it...right?"
"...You don't even have confidence in yourself."
Chu Yang couldn't help but complained,
However, he did not dwell on this topic for too long, after all, he had already guessed it.
He suddenly thought of a question, so he asked again:
"I'll take the liberty of asking, how long have you been in this place?"
