Chapter 417 Between Life and Death!
Chapter 417 Between Life and Death!
Seeing this, Qin Jiang's brows furrowed slightly, "Judging from the situation, this place won't hold for much longer, it's about to collapse any minute."
Zhao Yuefei also had her brows tightly knitted, her expression fraught with urgency, "These Rakshasa folks really are like rats, with secret passages and traps everywhere. We need to find a way out of here, it's about to cave in... otherwise, we're really going to die here."
As she spoke, Zhao Yuefei looked back, only to discover that their retreat had already been cut off, leaving no way out.
What to do now?
Zhao Yuefei punched the rocks in frustration, to no avail!
Only bits of stone chips rolled down.
Suddenly, a large amount of water began to surge in from beneath the ground!
This deepened the frown on her brow.
In less than a minute, the water had risen to their knees.
It wouldn't be long before the underground water rushing in from below would engulf both Qin Jiang and Zhao Yuefei.
"We're done for... It seems today is the day we're going to die here."
Zhao Yuefei was out of solutions and could only watch as the situation grew worse before her eyes.
"Stay calm!"
Feeling Zhao Yuefei's panic, Qin Jiang immediately patted her shoulder and comforted her simply, "Trust me! I will get you out of here!"
Zhao Yuefei nodded, took a deep breath, and tried to calm her frantic heart.
Looking around, they were surrounded by falling rocks, blocking off the space completely, leaving them no chance to escape.
Qin Jiang breathed a sigh of relief.
Fortunately, they had left in time. Had they been even a second slower, he and Zhao Yuefei would have certainly perished there.
After crawling out from that space, they were greeted by a lake.
Qin Jiang, with Zhao Yuefei in tow, continued to climb upwards, striving to reach the lake's surface as quickly as possible.
Zhao Yuefei clung tightly to Qin Jiang, shivering all over, her complexion becoming paler as she struggled to swim; she was not good in the water, and the surging underground river made it particularly hard for her!
Moreover, since they had dived into the water in a hurry, she hadn't taken a deep breath and was forced to hold her breath.
The problem was, she was now close to her limit, her face turning a bluish-purple.
After narrowly escaping death moments ago, was she going to meet her end here?
At that moment, Zhao Yuefei exhaled a stream of bubbles, choking uncontrollably, and in a reflex, she let go of Qin Jiang and pushed him away!
"Qin Jiang, go! Don't worry about me..."
As she saw the distance between her and Qin Jiang growing, Zhao Yuefei closed her eyes in despair.

Qin Jiang sensed something was wrong, turned back, and saw Zhao Yuefei flailing.
He bit down hard and swam back, grabbing Zhao Yuefei by the waist, and pulled her close...
Zhao Yuefei's body trembled!
Her feeling of oxygen deprivation significantly lessened.
She struggled to open her eyes and saw Qin Jiang's handsome face up close, as if time had completely stopped in that moment...
