Chapter 620: Unleash the Power, the Burning Cliff Territory Part 3

The air inside should have been hot and choking after being smoked heavily.

However, Su Mo could feel a faint breeze circulating around the cave, which brought slightly cool and fresh air.

He followed after it and headed toward the third passage on the far left that was marked as the storage.

Su Mo bent over and began to search carefully. Soon, he found a closed but not completely sealed gap under an inconspicuous little bed.

With a gentle push, a dark passageway that could accommodate an average-sized adult squatting was revealed.

Swoosh…

Swoosh…

The difference in air pressure between the inside and outside caused a cold breeze to blow in as soon as the passage was opened.

It was apparent that it would not take long to reach the snow-covered mountains outside through this passage.

‘They sure escaped pretty quick!’

The Liu brothers had caught on that they were at a disadvantage and quickly slipped away.

Even with guns, the Liu brothers seemingly had no intention to resist and ran away like cowards.

Su Mo was dumbfounded by their retreat.

However, he was not bold enough to chase after them through the passage.

He returned to the same path and instructed the tall women to bring the laborers to watch the secret passage.

Soon, Su Mo was back on the small platform outside of the cave.

‘I’ve already cleaned up the people inside the cave. I’ll go after the Liu brothers that escaped through the secret passage. You can head inside first!”

Su Mo informed the short woman who stayed guard outside. Then, he used both hands and feet to climb up to the stone platform above quickly.

The black smoke that rushed out from the cave had not completely dissipated, and he could roughly speculate the passage’s exit.

Very easily, Su Mo was able to find the secret passage’s exit from the main cave that led to the outside. Two trails of clear footsteps were also left on the snow.

One headed toward the east and the other to the west.

During their escape, the Liu brothers had chosen to part ways and head in opposite directions, which was an extremely smart choice.

However, after carefully observing the similarities of the two trails of footsteps, Su Mo halted for a moment and laughed.

‘You didn’t choose to walk the path to heaven and instead broke into the hell’s gate.

‘You two better impress me with how you escape this time!’

Although the two had chosen to escape in different directions, their destination was the same!

Down the mountain, to escape from East Long Mountain!

From the current location to the third mountain further down would require them to pass through the leeward slope, where the big stone platform was located.

Knowing that there were enemies in the area, there was simply no way for them to escape!

They would only be able to escape from the other side, which was the direction of the expedition team.

Without any accident, when the two though that they had escaped from a life-or-death situation…

A surprise would be there to meet them!

Su Mo concluded that the mountain road was dangerous at night, so he stopped chasing after them and went down to the platform through the original path he used.

He brought the wheat straw piled up at the cave entrance to the big platform and set it on fire himself.

The raging flames burned and began to sway side to side, accompanied by the thick smoke that spread with the winds.

The flames gradually rose into the sky, seemingly representing the hopeless fate of the cliff territory that had now turned into hope.

Su Mo did not disturb the laborers inside who were taking revenge on the abusers who had been brought down. He silently sat infront of the fire and waited.

Half an hour passed…

An hour passed…

…

The time passed quickly, and it was already ten at night in a blink of an eye.

Suddenly, some noises could be heard at the top of the mountain. Su Mo immediately raised his head and saw Feng Tianming sticking out his head, looking down at him.

The two were thrilled to see each other again.

“Tianmin! Was the journey up the mountain alright? Is the team still in order?”

“Shelter leader, we caught two sneaky people who had guns on our way up the mountain!”

It was their first contact after a short while.

However, after only exchanging a few words, the two were taken aback for a moment but immediately burst out laughing, unable to suppress the joy in their hearts any longer!
