Chapter 3173 - 3173: Master Told Me

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Observing an old cross-shaped scar on Little Monkey’s palm, Qiao Mu couldn’t resist asking, “What happened to your hand?”

Little Monkey’s eyes welled up with sadness. “Back then, after Sister left, I tried to follow her.’

“But I couldn’t leave this hall. Every attempt to step out resulted in being forcefully bounced back. I kept trying, and one time, I played too vigorously and got hurt.”

“Can I give you a new name?”

“No!” Little Monkey leaped up abruptly, spinning around to dash away. “I’ll be called Little Monkey. Just Little Monkey.”

Qiao Mu seemed to have a revelation and gazed at her in contemplation.

“Qiaoqiao.” Noticing her distraction, MO Lian reached out, giving her a gentle tug. “What’s on your mind?”

“Nothing.” She had a fleeting recollection of the past, a time when she felt incredibly lonely.

Collecting herself, she winked at MO Lian, turned her head slightly, and said, “Let’s keep moving.”

Considering that Little Monkey’s sister was the master of the secret realm and, according to Little Monkey, had left a long time ago.

That meant…

The individual manipulating the secret realm’s dimensions to harm others was none other than Little Monkey herself.

A sigh escaped Qiao Mu involuntarily as she contemplated this revelation.

She wondered about the Shrine’s ability to enter and exit the secret realm, influenced by destiny.

According to Little Monkey, her sister was likely a rare Senior master. Perhaps… she was thousands of years old.

Qiao Mu’s group entered the hall through a side entrance and, as expected, faced the two passageways.

The left and right passages seemed endless, posing a challenge in decision-making. Uncertain of which path to choose, they stood at a crossroads.

At that moment, Ma Ta exclaimed joyfully, “Qiaoqiao, take the left! I took the right earlier, and there are nine treasure rooms ahead. I randomly entered one, picked up a stone, and got ejected!”

“I bet the left path holds an even greater treasure!”

Her Excellency Lady Qiaoqiao paced between the two passageways, then halted, carefully inspecting the crooked characters engraved on the stone wall.

“Qiaoqiao, stop wasting time. Many have studied this, but after hours, they still can’t decipher the origin of these bird-like characters!” Ma Ta snorted. “Don’t overthink it. Trust me.”

Qiao Mu tilted her head, scrutinizing the characters for a while before suddenly saying, “Hey, wait.”

She reached into her inner world and pulled out a handwritten letter. Flipping through a few pages, she compared the characters on the stone wall, and her eyes lit up.

“Here!” She pointed to the right tunnel. “This way!”

Ma Ta was dumbfounded and exclaimed from Paradise Planet, “Hey, Qiaoqiao, isn’t this the path I took before? That’s not right!”

“That’s correct. You did the right thing.”

“But I got ejected by the quilt.”

“That’s just your bad luck, ” Her Excellency Lady Qiaoqiao said nonchalantly.

Ma Ta pondered for a moment and conceded. It made sense. His luck was certainly not even a tenth of Her Excellency Lady Qiaoqiao’s!

“Qiaoqiao, how can you be so sure that my road is correct?”

“My master told me,” Her Excellency Lady Qiaoqiao asserted confidently.

Observing the perplexed expressions around her, Qiao Mu opened her handwritten letter and pointed at the wall. “See! My master is writing.. This bird note represents a halt!”
