Suddenly, his expression changed dramatically, and he shouted to everyone, "Everyone, close your eyes immediately!"

At that time, Su Chen also entered the mountain cave.

Mei Ying also entered the mountain cave.

But only Mei Ying turned into a stone statue.

Su Chen, however, did not.

The only difference between the two was.

Mei Ying saw the face of the serpentine woman stone statue.

While Su Chen only saw the back.

At that time, Su Chen had a suspicion.

Could it be that seeing the face of the serpentine woman stone statue causes petrification?

Now, he saw that when Gu Yue took out the statue, he actually closed his eyes.

He confirmed his inner suspicion.

At the same time, he also finally understood why there was clearly a cave only a hundred meters deep.

Yet Gu Yue spent an hour.

It turned out that Gu Yue had already covered his eyes when entering the cave.

So that's why he took so much time.

Although, with Su Chen's reminder, many people present did not close their eyes.

"Isn't it just a stone statue? I thought it was something impressive." Zhu Shao's bodyguard noticed Gu Yue taking out what was merely a stone statue, and said scornfully.

Upon hearing the bodyguard's words, as a result, those who had already closed their eyes, some of them opened their eyes again.

Of course, there were still those who did not open their eyes.

That was Ban Cun.

Although he was also curious.

Su Chen essentially saved his life before, so he trusted Su Chen's words more.

He walked blindly to Su Chen and asked, "Brother Su Chen, what exactly is that thing?"

"It's a stone statue of a serpentine woman. Anyone who sees her face will turn into a stone statue!"

"Turn into a stone statue just by seeing the face? That must be a bluff, right?"

"Yeah, I've looked for so long, and I haven't turned into a stone statue at all."

"..."

Many people did not believe it.

But the first person who spoke suddenly began to speak with a thick tongue.

"My, my body, is so, so heavy... I, I can't move anymore..."

"Me, too..."

Those who saw the face of the statue all found their bodies becoming incomparably heavy and stiff.

"What's going on? Could it be that the curse of Huangshan Village is real?"

All of them displayed expressions of great fear.

"Quick, close your eyes, don't look, that statue is strange!"

People reacted and hurriedly closed their eyes.

Unfortunately, it was too late.

The people who saw the face of the serpentine woman first began to petrify.

Then, all those who saw the face of the statue also slowly turned into stone statues!

The curse of Huangshan Village was fulfilled!

Upon hearing the fearful voices of the crowd, Ban Cun was deeply grateful to Su Chen.

Fortunately, he listened to Su Chen's reminder.

Otherwise, he might have turned into a stone statue as well!

In just under a minute, more than half of the people present had turned into stone statues!

Gu Yue gathered up the statue and put it back in the bag.

He was ready to leave.

"Stop!" Su Chen called out to Gu Yue.

Originally, he wouldn't let Gu Yue casually take away the serpentine woman statue for Mei Ying's sake.

Now, with so many people turned into stone statues.

He definitely wouldn't let Gu Yue leave.

"Do you think you can stop me? As long as you open your eyes, you'll turn into a stone statue!" Gu Yue sneered.

Su Chen was shocked.

Clearly, Gu Yue knew how to use the serpentine woman statue.

That means he might know the secret of the curse of Huangshan Village!

"Then I'll just not open my eyes, right?" Su Chen said flatly, tearing a piece of cloth from his clothes and tying it around his eyes.

"Without your eyes, you still want to stop me, wishful thinking!" Gu Yue waved her hand, and the scattered blade fragments on the ground floated up.

"How about with me as well?" A figure walked over.

It was Ban Cun.

Like Su Chen, he found a strip of cloth to cover his eyes.

Gu Yue snorted coldly, directly driving the blades towards the two men.

The blade fragments were dense, looking like a swarm of wasps.

Despite having their eyes covered, Su Chen and Ban Cun seemed to have a tacit understanding, heading in two different directions directly.

Gu Yue was a Telekinesis Superpower User.

She could command the blade fragments to attack like a Sword Immortal.

It's safe to say, wherever her thoughts reached, her Attack Power could be felt.

But if both attacked her from two different directions.

She couldn't perfectly split the blades into two parts to attack both of them.

Moreover, the further the two were from each other, the weaker the blades divided into two parts would be.

This was something they felt during the previous battle.

They moved quickly to dodge the blades.

When unavoidable, they activated Defense Martial Arts to withstand the attacks.

As long as the blade attacks weren't continuous and dense, with their defensive martial arts, they could easily block the blade's attacks.

Seeing the two getting closer to her.

Gu Yue frowned.

She knew how to use the serpentine woman head.

This time, she came to Huangshan Village also targeting this serpentine woman statue.

It's an incredibly powerful weapon.

Anyone who sees the serpentine woman statue, even animals, will turn into stone statues!

So, Su Chen's suspicion was correct.

Upon entering the cave, Gu Yue had already covered her eyes.

Relying solely on touch, she groped in the cave.

Until she found the serpentine woman head.

Originally, everything was going smoothly.

She was about to complete the task perfectly, leaving with the serpentine woman head.

But unexpectedly, she encountered Su Chen and Ban Cun.

She could handle either of them alone.

After all, no matter how strong one's defensive power is, it can't withstand continuous blade cutting.

But together, they were somewhat tough to deal with.

In fact, neither Su Chen nor Ban Cun had been the strongest individuals Gu Yue had faced so far.

Moreover, their teamwork was surprisingly seamless.

When Su Chen faced strong attacks, Ban Cun would quickly approach Gu Yue.

When Ban Cun faced strong attacks, Su Chen would quickly approach her.

In just seconds, the two had gotten very close to her.

Gu Yue was aware of their strength.

Once they got close, she couldn't win.

She could only flee!

Gu Yue grew a strong intention to retreat.

She no longer wanted to fight with them.

Once decided, she acted.

Gu Yue turned to escape immediately.

Using Telekinesis on her body.

It made her as light as a swallow, almost as if practicing Qinggong, as she quickly jumped through the branches and leaves.

Su Chen and Ban Cun immediately chased after her.

"Be careful not to look at the statue woman's face," Su Chen advised Ban Cun.

"You too!"

The two began their pursuit.

"Burning!"

To increase his speed, Su Chen directly used the Burning Secret Technique.

To his surprise, Ban Cun could even keep up with him after he activated the Burning Secret Technique.
