Chapter 2084: Chapter 2082: Interwoven Time and Space, Transformed Lives (30)

Moreover, those poisonous snakes cannot be controlled by human hands. After all, they are most familiar with this mountain range, and they are aware of these snakes. These snakes belong here, but unexpectedly today, these snakes did not shy away; instead, they came right at them.

They cautiously moved forward; naturally, today’s mission was to locate the female officer and retrieve the documents from her possession, which were extremely important. Then, they were to take this woman back.

Bringing her back would be unimaginably cruel, especially for a woman.

However, they deemed this the best punishment.

Moreover, they were certain that the woman was still in this mountain range, so as long as they found her, the mission would be complete, and they continued to venture deeper into the dense forest.

They were getting closer to the hidden cave where Liang Yan was, and Gu Qiaoqiao hadn’t anticipated such a twist nor expected the three to stumble upon that place like blind cats hunting dead mice.

At this moment, the unconscious Liang Yan suddenly woke up. She struggled to sit up, vigilantly scanning her surroundings. This was her hiding spot after being injured, unaware of the current time. So she strained to stand and gradually moved toward the cave entrance.

Gu Qiaoqiao was shocked. Although there was a Barrier at the cave entrance, it did not guarantee that Liang Yan wouldn’t be discovered once she left.

Given the considerable distance, the Invisibility Talisman couldn’t be used, as Gu Qiaoqiao had just tested it.

Gu Qiaoqiao gritted her teeth; this was the critical moment, and failure was not an option. If these three captured Liang Yan, even separated by a thousand miles, Gu Qiaoqiao would be powerless to intervene.

These three could be said to have hard lives; the malevolent energy didn’t harm them, and meanwhile, the team led by Fong Lei wasn’t far away, perhaps driven by some cosmic coincidence, taking the most direct route.

Yet, regardless, compared to the enemy, they were still the farthest away.

Gu Qiaoqiao would not allow herself to fail.

She marshaled all her Spiritual Energy into her right hand, which seemed to turn transparent, surrounded by tangible white mist.

Gu Qiaoqiao, just like last time in the Phoenix Clan Divine Land, reaching across a thousand miles to retrieve the Hundred Miles of Mountains Map, extended her hand under the influence of Mind Power and Divine Sense, crossing space and time, grabbing the last enemy in the team.

With a forceful tug, she snared him. Using her Divine Sense and Mind Power, combined with her Spiritual Energy, Gu Qiaoqiao’s hand was charged with boundless power, she pulled this enemy into a nearby mud pit.

Then she pressed his head in; this was not the time for mercy. So Gu Qiaoqiao’s gaze was ruthless, only releasing her grip when the man had stopped breathing.

At this moment, Gu Qiaoqiao was drenched in sweat; it was her first time doing something like this.

The sweat was also due to her Spiritual Power being exhausted and the mental strain. No matter how arduous, she had to carry on.

Now the other two noticed something was amiss, but just as Liang Yan stumbled out of the cave.

Once she regained consciousness, she naturally wouldn’t stay inside.

She was near the boundary line, and as long as she drew breath, she would deliver the documents in the briefcase, even at the cost of her life; all to accomplish the mission, to eradicate the tumors and reclaim a clear sky for the border.

Death for her was insignificant, the only regret being unable to see her beloved again or explain what she’d done all these years to the love of her life.

Tears rolled from the corners of Liang Yan’s eyes; she was cautious, knowing many were tracking her.

She could not afford any mistakes; since no one found the cave, it was proven to be temporarily safe.

The individual who sensed the anomaly spun around, discovering his companion missing. Wide-eyed, he frantically scanned the surroundings.

Then he spotted his teammate lying in the mud pit, back facing up, head sunk in mud, motionless, evidently dead.

He grabbed his forward companion, speaking something incomprehensible to Gu Qiaoqiao, but the intent was evident; then the two swiftly dashed towards the mud pit.

This incident then boosted the distance from the cave, allowing Liang Yan to hear the commotion outside and quickly dashed aside, her movements incredibly swift.

One was trained specially; two, her body underwent nurturing by Spiritual Energy, despite severe injuries, her vitality was partially restored.

Therefore, hidden within the Barrier, the cave was invisible to all.

As long as the inhabitant didn’t exit, it resembled a barrier drawn by Monkey King’s golden hoop in Journey to the West. As long as Liang Yan didn’t leave, it was perfectly safe.

Gu Qiaoqiao gradually let go of the worry gripping her throat, palms sweaty, but this was no time for complacency; two remained unresolved, and peril lingered.

Gu Qiaoqiao decisively reached out again, attempting to sketch Ice Arrow Talisman in the air, but was unable to; maybe due to the distance, seeming close but truly akin to a world apart.

Managing to shove that person into the mud pit earlier was commendable.

And that person was rather tall, nearly six foot three, robust and weighing over two hundred pounds.

Pushing him into the mud pit wouldn’t be feasible for Gu Qiaoqiao; glancing around, she sought methods to distract or eliminate the two.

But these two quickly approached the mud pit, unable to reach the dead teammate inside. Thus, one unabashedly stepped into the pit.

Yet the moment he stepped into the pit, his eyes widened abruptly, flailing towards the shore, shouting nonsensically, but within a blink, he was pulled into the pit, and soon, blood bubbled emerging from below.

Even Gu Qiaoqiao was startled.

Never expected a giant crocodile within the pit, and the incident unfolded so rapidly, the remaining teammate didn’t even squeeze the trigger before his comrade vanished.

Soon after, another dead teammate too disappeared into a wide maw within the pit.

The pit seemed ordinary, akin to a small puddle, its surface laden with decaying leaves, duckweed, and branches, yet never imagined a crocodile lurked below.
