Luo Hongchen was merely scalded, which, for Liu Mang, was a trifle: a few Nine Deaths Needles and a couple of elixirs, and she was healed in less than half an hour.
The passage was getting hotter and hotter, so the three of them hurried to leave, climbing the remaining steps and rushing out of the corridor.

But a gust of sinister wind blew and evil aura began seeping out from beneath Bone Mountain again. Seeing this, Liu Mang quickly called out to Li Dapang and Luo Hongchen to descend the mountain and charged towards the distance for dear life.
It was as if some force didn't want the trio to leave; the journey back was nothing like the ease with which they had arrived.
