Chapter 654

Pulling Aggro
Translated by Kollumceti of Exiled Rebels Scanlations

For two whole days, You XiaoMo himself did not know how many meters they had dug. He only knew that every minute and second they were mechanically repeating the actions of lifting shovels and inserting them into the soil, then moving the soil into his dimension.

He would occasionally peek into his dimension these two days and had found that the pile of soil was now as high as a hill. Although digging tunnels was an extremely boring thing, but practice made perfect, and he did not feel unhappy with someone accompanying him.

“Ling Xiao, how long more must we dig?” You XiaoMo planted his butt on the ground and looked at Ling Xiao who was still digging the tunnel.

The tall figure in the narrow passage gave a feeling of being unable to stretch out one’s hands and feet. The light of the Night Pearl illuminated his profile, outlining half of a perfect silhouette as the black hair sticking to the side of his face swayed with his movements. It is clearly a very tiring job. You XiaoMo stared blankly as Ling Xiao had given him the feeling that ‘a man who was working seriously was the most attractive’.

Ling Xiao’s movements were faster and he did not use a shovel to dig. He had discarded it after digging with it for an hour at the beginning. Though his method wasted more spiritual energy, it was not a problem for them.

However, the rate of depletion of spiritual energy was faster than ever because of the continuous usage of spiritual power. You XiaoMo had continuously handed him bottles of spiritual water and Ling Xiao was now on his third bottle.

Ling Xiao stopped and turned around to see him lazing on the ground after hearing what You XiaoMo said, then he replied, “The progress has been faster than expected. Only one third is left.”

You XiaoMo embarrassedly stood up. Three-quarters of their current progress achieved was due to Ling Xiao’s efforts. He had not dug a tunnel before, so he always felt that it was not easy. Thus, he had not dug much in the past two days.

“Has the location of the highest grade of Spirit Eye been determined?” You XiaoMo walked up to him and asked. Although they knew that the highest grade of Spirit Eye was beneath the ancestral temple, they were unable to calculate how deep it was so they need to personally confirm it while they were digging.

“I’ve almost got it, it’s in the southeastern direction…” Ling Xiao made a gesture to illustrate his words as he spoke. His feeling became clearer as the distance shortened.

You XiaoMo nodded in understanding. Since it has been confirmed, there was no need to continue digging without a definite goal as they did two days ago.

At that moment, Xiao Ping who was guarding the barrier suddenly flew in.

Ling Xiao was the first to discover this. Unless someone came in Xiao Ping would not come if nothing happened.

Sure enough, when they returned to the cave and took a look, Fu ZiLin was standing outside the barrier.

You XiaoMo was momentarily astonished and immediately let him in, “Second-shixiong, why did you come here? Did something happen?”

Fu Zilin knew of their secret plan and before You XiaoMo went into secluded cultivation, he had told them that they were not to be disturbed when it was unnecessary. For them to have come here despite knowing this meant that something big had happened.

Fu ZiLin cut straight to the point and explained his purpose for coming here.

It is indeed a major event and it was also a critical moment of change in the structure of Dong Zhou. Fang Yang led experts from the Black Spider and the Guma Tribe to attack the ShuiXi Tribe in order to force Ling Xiao out. This was the largest battle of the Three Great Tribes to date.
