Chapter 477: Suspicion
Under the gaze of the crowd around the Babel Tower, an hour passed quickly.
Within an hour, Zuo Muxiu and Huang Shi each broke through more than a hundred floors.
Zuo Muxiu was now on the 1,189th floor, while Huang Shi was on the 1,183rd floor.
The difference between the two was not big, only five floors.
Of course, the difference of five floors does not mean that Huang Shi's strength is not as good as Zuo Muxiu.
The Babel Tower corresponds to the number of floors of the Spiritual Sea Realm, which is a full nine thousand floors. Below two thousand floors, just like the twenty floors below the Transcendental Realm, it is impossible to tell the difference.
Based on the speed of the two people breaking through the tower, Duan Qing estimated that this tower breaking competition would probably take ten days and a half months at the least.
The Babel Tower becomes more difficult to break through as you go back, and Duan Qing has a deep understanding of this.
With the strength of the two, even if they only break through six or seven thousand floors, it will take more than three or five days.
The reason why Duan Qing, Xue Wanyun and Yu Ya stayed in Shangshui City was because the teleportation array in the Babel Tower was damaged.
Wan Buliu once said that the teleportation array of the Babel Tower would be able to repair itself in a few days.
When the teleportation array is repaired, the three of them will definitely go to Shenzhou through the teleportation array as soon as possible.
It is estimated that they will not see the result of Zuo Muxiu and Huang Shi's breakthrough in the Babel Tower, Duan Qing thought.
Three days passed in a flash.
Just as Duan Qing expected, in three days, Zuo Muxiu and Huang Shi broke through more than 3,000 floors.
Currently, Zuo Muxiu is ahead by about 40 floors, and the two are still not clear.
Duan Qing and his party did not go anywhere in these three days, and stayed under the Babel Tower for three full days.
During this period, Xue Wanyun left for a trip to see the repair of the teleportation array. After returning, he told them that it would take about two days to complete the repair.
After the initial curiosity, Duan Qing and others are now bored.
In three days, they can only know the situation of the tower through the Babel Monument. It would be strange if they were not bored.
Yu Ya yawned. "Junior sister, is Senior Wanbulu still here?"
Xue Wanyun replied without thinking: "Yes."
"I wonder who Senior Wanbulu is chasing!" Yu Ya muttered.
Xue Wanyun turned her head away, not wanting to pay attention to Yu Ya.
Glancing at Duan Qing who was sitting cross-legged on the ground and practicing with his eyes closed, Xue Wanyun sighed.
This guy is really hardworking and never misses any opportunity to practice. God rewards hard work, no wonder he can practice to the state of mind so quickly.
Duan Qing has been bored with Tongtian Tablet for a long time. What else can he do if he doesn't practice?
In fact, if possible, he would rather spend his time practicing the two arts of Suzaku Transformation and Baimengxing, but it is obviously impossible under the current situation.
Seeing Duan Qing's diligence, Xue Wanyun smiled knowingly and suddenly said to Duan Qing: "Hey, Xiao Qingzi, do you remember the three conditions you promised me?"
Duan Qing opened his eyes, glanced at Zuo Wanqiu, and replied in a voice transmission: "Remember! Have you thought about what you want me to do?"
When the two were trapped in Yongling Valley, Duan Qing was isolated and helpless. In order to get out, he promised to do three things for Xue Wanyun.
The first condition was that Xue Wanyun asked him to take him to travel around Xiaonanjie. He had already completed it, and in order to repay the favor of teaching him the Suzaku Transformation Technique, he also gave all the wine hidden in the backyard of his inn to Xue Wanyun.
Duan Qing has always been a man of his word, so how could he forget the remaining two things.
"No, it's good that you remember it. This girl is just asking casually." Xue Wanyun suppressed her smile and said to Duan Qing.
Speaking of asking Duan Qing to agree to three things for her, it was just because she was greedy and coveted Duan Qing's wine collection, so she just said it casually. Now thinking about it, even she herself finds it funny.
However, Duan Qing can always remember this matter, which still makes her feel warm and comfortable.
Duan Qing glanced at Xue Wanyun expressionlessly and continued to practice.
Inexplicable!
Soon, two more days passed. Zuo Muxiu and Huang Shi had been in Tongtian Tower for five days, and they have only reached more than 4,000 floors.
More than 4,000 floors are the level of most spiritual sea realm cultivators.
Both of them are talented people. More than 4,000 floors are the time to start to exert their strength. The real competition is about to begin.
However, Duan Qing obviously can't see the result.
Xue Wanyun estimated that the teleportation array has been repaired, and has called Duan Qing and Yu Ya to leave.
After Duan Qing said goodbye to Zuo Wanqiu, Lin Ziyu and Yu Fan, he quietly set off with Xue Wanyun and Yu Ya, bypassing the Tongtian Monument and heading for the teleportation array in the northeast of Tongtian Tower.
Although Zuo Wanqiu and the other two were reluctant to leave, they could only watch Duan Qing leave.
Not long after Duan Qing and his three companions left the Tongtian Monument, they heard the crowd around the Tongtian Tower suddenly explode.
"What's going on? Huang Shi's name disappeared from the Tongtian Monument!"
"The same goes for Zuo Muxiu!"
"It's only more than 4,000 floors. Did the two fail?"
"How is it possible? With Huang Shi's strength, it is impossible for him to stop at more than 4,000 floors. There must be something wrong!"
...
Hearing the discussions of the people around them, Duan Qing and the other two were confused.
Because the three of them walked from the back of the Tongtian Monument along the Tongtian Tower to the northeast teleportation array, they could not see the situation on the Tongtian Monument.
What's going on? Listening to the discussions of the people around them, it seems that the names of the two have disappeared from the Tongtian Monument?
Yu Ya closed his eyes and opened his perception. With his spiritual sea realm cultivation, his perception was almost the same as that of the naked eye.
After a moment, Yu Ya opened his eyes and explained to Duan Qing and Xue Wanyun: "Zuo Muxiu and Huang Shi's names are no longer on the Tongtian Monument!"
Sure enough!
Duan Qing was very surprised.
There is only one possibility in this situation, that is, the two are no longer in the Tower of Babel.
But it doesn't make sense!
With the strength of the two, it is impossible to stop at more than 4,000 floors.
At this moment, Duan Qing thought of countless possibilities in his mind.
In the end, there are only two answers left.
Either something happened in the Tower of Babel, so that the two were forced to leave the tower.
Or... the two took the initiative to teleport out of the tower for some purpose!
Thinking of this, Duan Qing couldn't help but think of the look they exchanged when they entered the Tower of Babel, and Zuo Muxiu's eyes that made him feel a little familiar.
Suddenly, Duan Qing realized something.
He finally remembered why Zuo Muxiu's eyes were familiar.
He had that look too!
When he was in love with Senior Sister Su but couldn't express it, wasn't it like that!
Zuo Muxiu and the talented Huang Shi are having an affair?
This idea shocked Duan Qing himself.
The forces behind the two, the Zuo Family and the Huangyun Sect, are incompatible.
And according to Zuo Wanqiu, her elder brother Zuo Muxiu didn't seem to know Huang Shi.
Could it be that I was overthinking?
Xue Wanyun saw that Duan Qing looked different, and couldn't help but curiously asked: "Does Junior Brother Duan know anything?"
Duan Qing hurriedly shook his head, indicating that he didn't know.
This kind of thing is no joke.
Seeing that Duan Qing didn't say anything, Xue Wanyun was too lazy to continue asking. He turned his head and stared at the Tongtian Monument for a moment, and then said to Duan Qing and Yu Ya: "Let's go, this matter has nothing to do with us."
