My Crown Prince Consort Is a Firecracker! Chapter 1917

Chapter 1917: Underground Base

Qiao Mu’s group plus Apex Academy’s five mentors advanced at a swift pace.

Even with Xu Liang, Cao Dan, and the other people running at full speed for 15 minutes, they still didn’t catch sight of Apex Academy’s group.

The large batch of ghost spirits chasing them prevented them from taking it easy, and all they could do was barrel straight ahead. Even the students’ horrific screams gave them no choice but to abandon those students.

Xu Liang, w.a.n.g Haizhi and company finally caught sight of Apex Academy’s group after another 15 minutes, and they rushed over without another word.

Once they neared Apex Academy’s group, Xu Liang and them abruptly discovered that the ghost spirits’ wails and howls muted substantially. Their pounding hearts also calmed down greatly at this point.

Xu Liang and w.a.n.g Haizhi heaved a long sigh in unison. They were abruptly washed over with relief from having survived this incident.

Cao Dan, as well as the people from Honghui Academy and River Horse Academy, had also finally caught up. The last ones were the miserable students who had to carry You Xin.

One of the two students carrying You Xin had gotten torn apart by ghost spirits, while the other person abandoned You Xin after p.i.s.sing his pants in terror.

If one of the Sunlight Academy mentors hadn’t promptly grabbed You Xin with a leap, You Xin would probably have ended up as the ghost spirits’ feast by now.

By the time the last people had caught up, a large batch of ghost spirits had congregated in the pa.s.sageway. They howled and brandished their arms at the group with bared teeth before angrily turning around to leave.

…

Cao Dan was surprised at the direction that the ghost spirits were leaving in. He furrowed his brows before abruptly chasing after the ghost spirits. When the ghost spirits turned around in pursuit from his provocation, he hastily cowered back beside Apex Academy’s group.

It turns out that it wasn’t an illusion! That stoic-faced little lady from Apex Academy indeed had a dharma treasure that could effectively repel ghost spirits! After realizing this, Cao Dan’s face turned ashen.

However, Cao Dan was afraid to speak too much due to Crown Prince Mo’s sharp gaze from earlier. Neither did Cao Dan dare show any resentment. He merely followed the other people with low spirits.

When they came upon a turn in the pa.s.sageway, everybody could feel that they were going down a slope.

Zhou Danjin glanced back worriedly at Qiao Mu. “Qiao Mu, this isn’t a path we pa.s.sed by earlier, right?”

The various traps inside this tomb were nearly driving him crazy!

Most likely more than half the day had pa.s.sed since they entered the tomb!

Yet right now, he felt like he was unable to see any hope.

Qiao Mu shook her head. A faint astonishment surfaced in her eyes, and she lowered her head while furrowing her brows. It seemed as though she was contemplating something.

As they walked down, an indescribable emotion was shouting at her in her mind, making her so jittery that she couldn’t resist frowning in shock.

What kind of strange emotion was this?

Qiao Mu lowered her eyes as she slowly followed Mentor Zhou and the other mentors down into the sloping pa.s.sageway.

Soon, a rusty ancient iron door appeared in her eyes.

Qiao Mu’s expression changed abruptly, and she couldn’t help but hug herself while trembling.

Her distinct mood swing alarmed Mo Lian, Feng Chen, the little fatty, Xuanxuan, and the rest who were worried about her.

“What is the matter! Qiaoqiao.” Some of the students spoke up at the same time.

Mo Lian hastily reached out to pull her into his embrace. Yet his hand was instantly covered in cold sweat from where he touched her forehead.

Realizing this, Mo Lian panicked, and he inquired softly while embracing her, “Qiaoqiao, what happened?”

Yet when Qiao Mu looked up, her eyes were filled with horror.
