The man in black was furious and pursued Xiao Qiang into the river, but he was bewildered when Xiao Qiang had vanished without a trace.
In fact, at this moment, Xiao Qiang was retracing his steps.
He went back directly into the tunnel and returned to the stone door.
"Damn him! His soul refuses to fade; let's see if he doesn't die this time. Even if he can cure his poison, he surely won't have time for me now?"
Xiao Qiang, panting heavily, collapsed onto the ground. He was somewhat exhausted. However, he didn't sit for long when he heard noises coming from the underground tunnel.
"Has he caught up?" Xiao Qiang was startled, and then he rushed into the stone door. As he entered, he once again attached the jade pendant onto its position on the stone door.
The stone door gradually closed.
