Chapter 1076 - Abyssal Emperor
Liu Wuxie didn't conceal his true purpose—to find the Barefooted Elder.
After a brief moment of silence, Tian Wucang said, "I can take you to him."
The moment those words left Tian Wucang's lips, Liu Wuxie sprang to his feet in excitement. Had they not been trapped here, he would have grabbed Tian Wucang and started the search immediately.
"Brother Tian, I don't even know how to thank you," Liu Wuxie said sincerely, "If you can help me find the Barefooted Elder, I'll owe you a great debt. Just say the word, and I'll repay you."
Since Tian Wucang was probably the only one who knew the Barefooted Elder's whereabouts, Liu Wuxie vowed to remember this favor forever.
"You saved my life. Helping you is the least I can do," Tian Wucang replied calmly.
If Liu Wuxie hadn't intervened the previous night, the Abyssal Emperor's guards would have already captured and executed Tian Wucang.
"Let's figure out how to get out of here first," Liu Wuxie said with a nod. After all they had been through, there was no need for formalities between them.
They began circling the underground tomb, searching for a way out. A craftsman had built the walls using a special type of stone that was so tough even weapons couldn't scratch it.
They searched for a long time, but every slab was sealed tight, without even the slightest gap. Not even an ant could slip through. After an exhausting day and night of searching, they collapsed onto the ground, panting for breath.
Tian Wucang stood up and walked over to a corner.
"Brother Gu, excuse me," he said as he walked off to relieve himself.
