Chapter 312: Truly a Divine Man
# 312. Truly a Divine Man
Dusk. The sun hung low in the west.
One by one, members of the Houtu Gang crawled out from the tunnel—thirteen in total. Counting the members of the Heaven and Earth Society, they were now sixteen.
“We finally made it out!”
“It feels like a lifetime has passed; I almost thought I’d die in there… What a pity, though, that we didn’t get to bring out much.”
The tomb raiders, exhausted but jubilant, slumped to the ground to savour their survival. Some simply revelled in the joy of having escaped death; others quietly counted their meagre loot from the tomb, musing over the low returns on this operation.
The Heaven and Earth Society members, however, bore heavy hearts, showing no signs of relief.
Hengyuan carefully set Lina down, staring blankly at the tomb entrance. In a low voice, he murmured, “This poor monk is not even as courageous as a woman.”
After sitting silently for a few moments, he put his palms together, and tears of grief poured down his face.
