The others became more vigilant towards these corpses because of Shi Yu's words, seriously scanning them.
"I don't know either, I just feel there's a problem. Even if we want to go in, let's wait until I move these corpses away. That way it's safer," Shi Yu couldn't say it directly, only spoke tactfully.
Saying this, Shi Yu began using the power of Space to transport these corpses, one by one moving them outside the cave.
Shi Yu was quite careful during the process, staying as far away as possible to prevent the corpses from suddenly exploding.
"You don't need to be so cautious, right?" Ma Xiaotao said.
"The methods of Evil Soul Masters are strange and unpredictable. Being a little cautious is not a bad thing," Zhang Lexuan said.
Ma Xiaotao couldn't say anything more and wanted to call others to help with the transport.
"You guys don't get close to these corpses, just let me do it," Shi Yu blocked them.
If Shi Yu wasn't sure that Ma Xiaotao was simply big-chested and brainless, Shi Yu would almost suspect she was an internal spy for the Evil Soul Master.
Wouldn't letting people get close give the other party a chance to explode and severely injure them?
Ma Xiaotao and the others waited in place.
Shi Yu had moved over a dozen corpses and was about to move another one away.
Just at this moment, energy light illuminated the surface of these corpses.
"Be careful," Shi Yu and Zhang Lexuan said almost in unison.
Shi Yu mobilized the power of Space to resist, Zhang Lexuan's Martial Soul was also released immediately, and a large amount of Soul Power surged out to construct an energy defense.
The others reacted later, hurriedly setting up defenses.
"Boom boom boom..." These corpses exploded almost simultaneously, the sound like thunder. The powerful explosions shook the cave, and rubble kept rolling down.
Xuan Lao, who was leisurely drinking in a slightly more distant place, his face drastically changed after hearing the explosion. He threw his wine pot directly and rushed towards this side like crazy.
When the explosion ended, the cave was filled with violent and foul-smelling energy, mixed with dirt and gray mist.
Shi Yu and the others all safely retreated from the cave. Because they hadn't gone deep inside and were not at the center of the explosion, and their defenses were timely, no one was injured.
They were just startled by this explosion. Everyone felt lingering fear. If they had gone deep inside and were at the center of the explosion, even a Soul Emperor would be severely injured.
"Are you guys alright?" Xuan Lao arrived at this moment, sweeping away the drifting poisonous mist.
He nervously counted the number of people, only slightly relaxing after confirming that no one was missing and there were no casualties.
He wiped the cold sweat from his forehead. It really scared him. If he messed things up again because of drinking, he would truly have no face to return to Shrek Academy.
"Thanks to Shi Yu detecting the danger in advance, otherwise the consequences would be unimaginable." Even Zhang Lexuan, this Soul Douluo, felt a bit of lingering fear.
The power of this explosion was very strong. She herself might be safe and sound, but she might not be able to look after the others.
Once they suffered heavy losses here, what should they do about the upcoming Soul Master Competition?
The others, including Huo Yuhao and Wang Dong, actually looked at Shi Yu with a bit of gratitude. This time, it was thanks to him.
"Good kid!" Xuan Lao happily patted Shi Yu's shoulder, feeling a bit grateful towards him.
This not only saved these children but also saved him.
Shi Yu smiled slightly, pointing inside the cave and saying, "There might be an Evil Soul Master hidden inside. Those corpses exploding might be the work of the Evil Soul Master."
The expressions of Ma Xiaotao, Zhang Lexuan, and the others were quite cold. They were furious and wanted to charge in and kill.
"You all stay outside honestly. I will personally go in and catch the Evil Soul Master." Xuan Lao stopped them and dashed in with a flash.
Shi Yu and the others honestly waited outside.
"Thank you. If it weren't for you, I might have made a big mistake," Ma Xiaotao said guiltily, sitting next to Shi Yu.
She was responsible for leading the team, but she almost caused significant casualties.
If they had charged in according to her idea, the consequences would truly be unimaginable.
"Sometimes you need to be more cautious when doing things. Rushing forward recklessly can lead to trouble. You'd best take it as a warning," Shi Yu lectured.
As Shi Yu spoke, Shi Yu also subconsciously glanced at Ma Xiaotao's chest, understanding her recklessness a little bit better.
Sometimes the saying "big-chested and brainless" really isn't a joke.
Of course, this might also be related to her Martial Soul attribute.
Being lectured by Shi Yu in this tone made Ma Xiaotao feel a bit awkward, but she didn't argue, as there was some truth to it.
With Xuan Lao taking action, this Evil Soul Master couldn't escape and was captured by him.
After an interrogation, no useful information was obtained, causing Xuan Lao to strike out in anger and slap him to death.
After the group rested and reorganized, they set off. This inspection mission was considered successfully concluded, and the next step was to go to Star Luo City.
A group of seventeen people, divided into two flying Soul Guidance Devices, headed towards Star Luo City.
Halfway through the journey, the sky also darkened, and the group stopped in a city to rest.
They continued their journey early the next morning.
"Why do I have a bad premonition?" On the flying Soul Guidance Device, Shi Yu's eyelids twitched, feeling inexplicably uneasy.
Shi Yu scanned left and right but didn't find anything unusual.
"Maybe I didn't sleep well," Shi Yu told Shi Yu to stop overthinking. Looking at Xuan Lao sleeping there, Shi Yu felt much more at ease.
Even if there was any danger, with Xuan Lao present, there should be no need to worry.
If even Xuan Lao couldn't resolve it, then his worry was useless.
Just as Shi Yu was about to look away, Xuan Lao suddenly opened his eyes, stood up solemnly, and looked in a certain direction.
Shi Yu's heart tightened, and Shi Yu subconsciously moved closer to Xuan Lao.
Before he could ask, Xuan Lao said urgently, "Quickly descend to the ground, quick!"
He Caitou and Dai Yueheng, who was controlling the other flying Soul Guidance Device, didn't quite understand why, but they still complied, quickly controlling the flying Soul Guidance Devices to descend.
It was a bit hurried. From Xuan Lao's tone, they realized that something bad might be about to happen.
The others also became nervous.
"Xuan Lao, what's wrong?" Zhang Lexuan came to Xuan Lao's side and asked in a low voice. Her Soul Power surged, ready to take action at any moment.
"I will block them in a moment. You take Shi Yu and Huo Yuhao and run towards Star Luo City. The faster, the better. Only when you reach Star Luo City will you be considered safe," Xuan Lao said with a solemn tone.
These words made Zhang Lexuan, Ma Xiaotao, Shi Yu, and the others' expressions change.
For Xuan Lao to say something like this, one can imagine how powerful the approaching enemies are, possibly making it difficult even for him to deal with them.
"Boom!" When the flying Soul Guidance Device had only descended halfway, a huge energy fist came flying from afar, appearing green and massive like a mountain peak.
People say "fist as big as a sandbag," but this was a fist the size of a mountain peak. It was hard to imagine this could be a human fist.
It made Shi Yu and the others tremble with fear just looking at it. Even Zhang Lexuan felt a sense of her own insignificance.
