"Jiang Lan, you've gone too far! Do you think I'm some kind of pushover, to be pushed around again and again..."
"One day, I'll make you pay the price. You'll regret everything you've done."
Meanwhile, Xiao Teng stood before the entrance to an ancient-looking underground cavern, a Communication Jade Talisman clutched in his hand, his expression livid.
A dark, cold underground river surged through the cavern, converging into a bone-chillingly deep pool. The jade-green water emanated a strange, unnatural cold.
In the depths of this frigid pool, a shimmering, jade-green flower was in full bloom. It was splendid and magnificent, but the surrounding temperature was terrifyingly low, and no living creature dared to approach it.
He had intended to spend some time harvesting this rare flower, but now, he was out of time.
If he abandoned Meng Mo and the others, his reputation would suffer a huge blow, even if he managed to take first place in the end.
