However, when he saw Xie Lingyan’s raised fist, he couldn’t help but become puzzled. “Did I lose…?”

He had long seen the look of victory on Xie Lingyan’s face. He deliberately didn’t expose her because he planned to joke with her once to relieve the pressure in her heart.

But her fist was raised high. No matter how she looked at it, she didn’t look like she had won?

Xie Lingyan blushed slightly, but she quickly regained her seriousness and thought. “Come, let’s do it again!”

The same angle and force, but Xie Lingyan’s arm was still raised without any resistance.

She carefully sensed that the force she released was indeed purer. However, Lin Yan’s force was too thick!

When her force collided with it, it was as if she had collided with a towering mountain and was bounced up.

She was very smart and immediately reacted. “The powerful blood energy of the Strength Realm also makes your Tough Force far exceed martial artists of the same realm!”

Lin Yan nodded helplessly.

Xie Lingyan was speechless for a moment. She was envious and helpless. “How strong are you now?”

Lin Yan couldn’t answer.

After chatting for a while, Lin Yan’s heart skipped a beat.

He took out the grayish-yellow rough hide.

“Miss Xie, do you recognize the words on it?”

Xie Lingyan frowned slightly. “Did you… find this from the ancient ruins in the Guangchuan Mountains?”

Lin Yan’s eyes lit up. “Miss Xie, you recognize them?”

“Then you’ll be disappointed. I’ve only seen it before. Some time ago, the ruins in the Guangchuan Mountain Range were the center of attention. I saw someone selling the same human skin pages in the underground black market. Later, they were taken away by a rich customer.”

“Human skin?!” Lin Yan was slightly shocked.

Xie Lingyan nodded. “Someone appraised it and said that it’s actually human skin. It’s just that it has gone through an unknown process of salting. I don’t know why it can be preserved for so long.”

Lin Yan subconsciously rubbed the surface of the leather. After hearing Xie Lingyan say that it was human skin, the more he touched it, the more he felt that it looked a little similar. It was a grayish-yellow color, and it might be caused by special craftsmanship, but the feeling was indeed human skin.

“Miss Xie, do you know if anyone can recognize the words on it?”

The things in the ruins might be related to Xiaozhi’s illness, so Lin Yan naturally didn’t want to let it go.

“This should be an ancient language. There’s probably someone in Ding’an City who can recognize it, but I don’t know the specifics.”

Lin Yan’s mind raced. Now, most of the large factions in Ding’an City had gathered in the depths of the Guangchuan Mountains, outside the large poisonous fog.

If anyone could really recognize the ancient words, they would probably be brought there by those large factions.

Therefore, if he went there to ask, he might be able to find clues!

He was subconsciously unwilling to enter Ding’an City again. Even though his strength had improved greatly, Ji Ying’s death that night made him even more vigilant against Ding’an City.

At the same time, in a dark underground mine.

A thin layer of blue light appeared and disappeared, barely illuminating the mine.

Clang! Clang! Clang! Clang!

The sound of picks hitting the hard stones kept coming from afar, echoing back and forth in the narrow and dark mine tunnel.

Pang Yinlong was nailed tightly into a rough iron cover. He was really nailed. The thick and long Dragon Binding Nail pierced through his body and nailed him into the iron shell at the back. On it, they added a thick iron shell and sealed all the parts below his head into the human-shaped iron shell.

“Let me die, let me die…” He opened and closed his mouth, and a faint voice kept coming out.

His eyes were bloodshot, and his eyeballs were bulging. One could see the red eyelids around his eyes. His lips were severely dry and cracked, and his hair had fallen sparsely. There were only a few strands left, but his skin was frighteningly pale. His entire face seemed to be filled with air and swelled up.

In fact, from some angles, he didn’t look like a human, especially his smooth skin. He looked like… an amphibious frog.

In the dim light, there was a rustling sound that quickly approached.

In the light and shadow, several extremely fast figures appeared in this slightly spacious cave with hunched backs.

“Huha, Huha, Huha…”

Gasps came from the mouths of these figures.

The remnant light flashed past, illuminating a few middle-aged men in ragged clothes, with dust on their faces, and carrying large baskets.

They put down the large wicker baskets and sat on the ground, panting heavily. The huge force of absorbing the airflow disturbed the air in the entire mine.

If anyone in Ding’an City saw their current appearance, their eyes would definitely fall to the ground in shock.

Liu Teng of the Liu family, Hong Xi and Hong Guan of the Hong family, Lin Tuyuan of the Fuwei Escort Agency, Yang Zheng of the Green Alliance…

Which one of them was not a famous Noble Realm martial master in Ding’an City?

But now, all of them had dark expressions and were completely dressed as miners?

After a long while, their breathing finally stabilized. Then, they spat out a large mouthful of dark green phlegm. When it landed on the ground, it actually emitted green smoke and let out a corrosive sound.

Lin Tuyuan looked defeated. “I can’t take it anymore. If this continues, I’ll be poisoned to death in a few days!”

Yang Zheng gritted his teeth. “F*ck, what mine is it? Must we dig into the poisonous fog? Is there no one else? Must we dig?!”

Liu Teng tilted his mouth and said self-deprecatingly, “Who asked us to be Noble Realm martial masters? Not only can we hold our breath for a long time, but we can also circulate our strength to isolate the poison and expel it. If not us, are they going to let others die for nothing?”

“But this isn’t how it should be done! How many martial masters have died in just a few days?”

“If you’re not satisfied, you can run. The mine path extends in all directions. If you’re confident that you can leave the range of the poisonous fog before your strength is exhausted, you can run.”

“What the f*ck did you say?! Old bastard, you used to go against me, and now you’re still…”

“Save your energy! You’re already at the gates of hell. Why are you still arguing?”

“That’s right. It’s good enough that you’re alive.”

“Let’s not talk about living. It’s already not bad to die. Look at Pang Yinlong…”

Everyone shifted their gazes to Pang Yinlong, who was locked in an iron cage in the corner, and shuddered.

Pang Yinlong did not seem to notice their argument earlier on and continued mumbling, “Let me die, let me die…”

Becoming like this, which was neither human nor ghost, was truly miserable.

Hong Xi straightened his back and stood up. He said gloomily, “If you’re controlled by others, you have to have this awareness. Let’s go. If you don’t hurry, you won’t be able to complete today’s mission…”

After a series of sighs, everyone stood up again and left.

From afar, there was the sound of rapid knocking on the mine again.

Only Pang Yinlong, who was staring blankly at the blood stalactite at the top, was left behind. He was still low and hoarse.. “Let me die, let me die…”
