There's no choice. The Command Arrow to enter and exit the large formation is with Shi Chun. Wu Jinliang doesn't have Shi Chun's right-eye superpower, so he can't see where the hidden sentries are. During this tense moment, he doesn't dare to run around recklessly.
After finishing the contact, Wu Jinliang kept the Mother-child Talisman and chuckled lightly, "Alright, we just need to wait for Master to pick us up."
He estimated that even Shi Chun, who doesn't know the Earth Escape Technique, would find it difficult to get in and would likely have to put in some effort.
Chu Jingtang whispered, "Isn't the Divine Mountain protected by a large formation? Can Master really get in?"
Wu Jinliang chuckled, "Why else is he called Master? Don't worry. With Master's skills, if he wants to come in, this broken formation can't stop him."
The specific way he would come in wasn't mentioned, and it wasn't good to reveal it in advance, but it did create a mysterious aura around Shi Chun.
He relaxed, lying in the small hole with his arms behind his head and crossing his legs, pretending to be relaxed. In fact, he was somewhat worried, having had past experiences of being chased while using the Earth Escape Technique. He was still concerned someone might follow the escape traces to find them.
Yet, he didn't dare venture out randomly nor dared to escape noisily. For now, he could only wait.
Unbeknownst to him, the look in the eyes of Chu Jingtang and the other two became a bit peculiar. They were truly amazed this guy managed to lead them out of the crisis amidst the gaps.
Some things seem simple in process, but they knew very well that decisions and judgments made at crucial moments are vital. This big guy grasped those fleeting opportunities with astounding precision, a capability not everyone possesses.
They realized that unless it's an absolute direct crush, this guy is not easily finished off.
The three had a different understanding of Wu Jinliang.
Meanwhile, Shi Chun was quickly traversing through the Heart-wrapping Grass forest, swiftly approaching Divine Mountain, striving to rescue them.
According to the situation narrated by Wu Jinliang, he knew very well that Wu Jinliang's escape was temporary. If someone discovered the Earth Escape route, they could easily capture Wu Jinliang and the others. There were all sorts of possibilities in this.
Even Mrs. Bai might confess, and once Divine Mountain learned of this, they would immediately conduct another thorough search.
Since Wu Jinliang had already created an opportunity to escape, he must quickly seize this chance for a rescue.
After an urgent rush, even though it was broad daylight, he found a temporarily available region with forest cover, relatively close to the formation boundary. He cast a spell to carefully dig a hole, trying not to make any noise, and frequently checked his surroundings.
He didn't dare casually toss the dug-out soil, storing it all into a storage bag.
Regardless of day or night, he dared not make golden light shine openly to enter or exit the large formation. Digging a tunnel to block the light was the safest method. Fortunately, with his cultivation, doing this work wasn't difficult...
Clap!
Inside the Dazhi City jail, Dong Wenshu, bound in a large character shape, had only endured one whip, and as soon as his body showed blood marks, he shouted loudly, "I confess, I confess!"
The guards looked at each other, surprised that he indeed had secrets about Wang Ping and Gao He to reveal.
One of them sighed, "Mr. Dong, if you'd said so earlier, you wouldn't have suffered this."
Dong Wenshu panted, "Being bound like this is too uncomfortable, let me go, and I'll tell you everything I know."
They had seen him often enough in the city to know he wasn't much of a threat. The one in charge of interrogation signaled with his hand, "Untie him."
So Dong Wenshu was released with a clatter, and someone even brought a chair for him to sit on.
The interrogator smiled, "Mr. Dong, talk nicely, talk in detail. We all know you're a good person. Once the issue is understood, we won't make things difficult for you."
Dong Wenshu seemed a bit indifferent, reaching from his collar to take out a necklace with a Jade Token. He took it off and gazed intently at the ancient-patterned Jade Token.
This was a family heirloom, not to be used lightly, said to be tried only at crucial moments of crisis.
In his current situation, he had no idea about any matters concerning Wang Ping and Gao He.
Initially, he thought they could reason it out, but who knew they were serious here, and without any reason, they truly tortured him.
He could endure the punishment himself, but his three daughters—he, a well-read man, knew how unbearable the punishment for women in torture chambers could be, stripping them even of their innocence; he couldn't let his three daughters suffer such a fate.
"Mr. Dong..." the interrogator urged him, puzzled at what he was looking at in the Jade Token.
Dong Wenshu looked up at him, eyes showing resolve, and suddenly slammed the necklace against the stool he was sitting on, *crack*, directly smashing it to pieces. The indoor lights flickered, while a breeze appeared out of nowhere, then quietly dissipated.
