Chapter 626 - 625 - : Sudden Incident
Yusuf Zuck and Ruth Wilcox went on a trip together, without even bringing Pi’er along. After hastily packing their belongings and bidding farewell to Marlon Shepherd and Fleur Carson, they simply vanished without a trace, unreachable by phone. Yusuf had turned off his phone, arranging only to maintain a call every midnight with Fleur Carson and Pi’er.
Their first destination was the Qilian Mountains, and the reason for heading there was that Elijah Burch, the leader of the Dragon Group, had mentioned a mystical snake that had gained sentience in that place.
He wanted to meet this snake and also casually inquire if, by any chance, the snake had some Miracle Elixirs. That would be even better.
Yusuf was quite satisfied that Ruth could leave with him. In fact, she was also very busy, but she knew what was most important and thus resolutely joined Yusuf on the journey.
The two of them each carried large backpacks, dressed in outdoor jackets, and wore hiking boots, looking like two travelers embarking on a backpacking journey.
"This is our honeymoon trip!" Ruth explained.
Because it was just the two of them, and because they had just crossed that final barrier in their relationship, Ruth naturally considered this trip to be their honeymoon.
As long as the two were together, anywhere could be their honeymoon, their period of bliss!
However, what Yusuf and Ruth didn’t know was that on the fourth day after they left Beijing, as they ventured deep into the legendary Qilian Mountains where even mobile phone signals were lost, the Dragon Gate Passage on Dragon Head Mountain in Chongqing suddenly resonated with tremors, and then three robed cultivators emerged.
Two men and one woman. As soon as they appeared, the Dragon Gate Passage that had been open for nearly three months closed abruptly!
