Chapter 251: Step by Step, Returning to the Original Narrative
Yao Yue's words echoed through the corridors of the grand hall, but the only response from Wei Wuya was the lingering echo of her voice.
Jiang Feng's eyes flickered, and he couldn't help but glance back at the main corridor.
The next moment, Wei Wuya's voice rang out from one side, "What? Are you thinking of leaving?"
The trio spun around to face the adjacent wall, where there was a closed door. The once pitch-black entrance now emitted a faint glow from within.
Clearly, Wei Wuya was observing them from the other side.
Yao Yue's palm struck the door, causing the air to ripple with her palm wind, but the door only shook slightly, showing no signs of opening.
"Hahaha..."
From behind the stone wall, Wei Wuya burst into laughter, "Each and every door in my cave mansion has walls that are over half a foot thick and weigh three thousand catties. There are limits to human strength, and you will never be able to push it open!"
Yao Yue's face turned cold, but even with the domineering nature of the Ming Yu Gong, it was still a martial arts internal skill and not an immortal cultivation technique. She truly couldn't push open this three-thousand-catty stone door.
Lian Xing, upon realizing that Wei Wuya was hiding in the neighboring chamber, narrowed her eyes and coldly smiled, "You may laugh now that we're outside and you're in there, but do you think you can hide in there forever?"
"Hahaha..."
Wei Wuya couldn't help but laugh again, "I'm in here, and you're out there, hahaha! You're trapped outside..."
Yao Yue replied coldly, "If we're not outside, then are you saying you're the one who's outside?"
Wei Wuya laughed so hard that he could barely breathe, "Of course I'm inside. But you're inside too! Do you really think you can leave?"
Lian Xing's expression changed, and she stepped back before flying away from the hall. Like a white shadow, she swiftly moved back and forth in the corridor, returning to the hall in the blink of an eye.
However, her voice trembled slightly as she spoke, "The corridor entrance has been blocked by a stone."
Wei Wuya cackled upon hearing this, "Not bad, not bad. You've finally noticed. The sealing stone at the entrance of my 'Heaven beyond the Skies' is different from the stone door before you. It's half a zhang thick and weighs ten thousand catties!"
Yao Yue's face paled, and Lian Xing's countenance turned ashen.
They had never expected Wei Wuya to have such a trick up his sleeve.
"Hahaha, you didn't expect this, did you? I just went to seal the door. Now, all exits from my cave mansion have been completely blocked. Not even a fly can get out, let alone any of you." Wei Wuya laughed triumphantly.
Yao Yue turned to look at Jiang Feng. If it weren't for her impulsive decision to enter, Jiang Feng, with his cautious nature, might have noticed the sealing stone at the cave entrance, and they wouldn't have ended up in this predicament.
However, Jiang Feng didn't seem worried at all. Seeing her gaze, he smiled and nodded reassuringly.
"Jiang Feng..." Lian Xing moved closer to him.
Jiang Feng smiled gently and addressed Wei Wuya, "If not even a fly can get out, how do you plan to leave?"
"Me?" Wei Wuya laughed out loud, "You think that because my side can get out, you can trick me into opening the stone door in front of you and let you in, right?"
Wei Wuya thought he had seen through Jiang Feng's plan and laughed proudly, "What a pity. I won't fall for it. Moreover, the escape route I prepared for myself is absolutely inaccessible to you!"
Jiang Feng's eyes flickered as he realized that the escape route Wei Wuya had prepared for himself was probably the same as in the original story—a passage that only a dwarf could fit through.
But now, the tables had turned, and the situation was entirely under his control. He couldn't help but gloat.
"Oh, Mr. Jade, always so immaculate and extraordinary," Wei Wuya mocked Jiang Feng. "Let's see how well you maintain that image after starving for three days!"
"And you two, Inviting Moon and Lonely Star. You think my Sky Beyond the Skies is filthy, don't you? Well, let's see if you can stand being here for three days!"
Yao Yue and Lian Xing's faces had gone pale, but Jiang Feng remained unafraid. Instead, he played along with Wei Wuya's taunts. "It seems you do have some self-awareness after all. You know you're ugly and despicable, that you'll never measure up to me and are not worthy of Inviting Moon and Lonely Star."
"How dare you!" Wei Wuya spat. "If I'm not worthy of them, then how are you? You, the so-called Mr. Jade, are just as greedy. You were there at Emei Mountain and Jiuhua Mountain, lured by Ouyang Ting's martial arts secrets and treasures."
Jiang Feng's eyebrows arched. "You were at Jiuhua Mountain too?"
Wei Wuya burst into laughter. "Of course, I was! Aren't you curious about how the four villains, feared by all, met their quiet end in the secret valley? It was me!"
This time, Jiang Feng was genuinely shocked. "You?"
"Yes, me!" Wei Wuya exclaimed proudly. "I captured Xiao Mim, fed her poison, and made her help me ambush the four villains. She was quite obedient, not daring to resist at all."
Jiang Feng recalled the events in the secret valley. "So she was the one who plotted against Du Sha first?"
"Then I killed Li Dazui," Wei Wuya continued, laughing. "As for Tu Jiaojiao, she couldn't even last ten moves against me, and He Er... what a useless fool. He tried to hide his knife in his smile, but it was all for naught. The Ten Villains, overrated if you ask me! Hahaha!"
Jiang Feng nodded, finally solving the mystery of Jiuhua Mountain's secret valley. "What about Xiao Mimi, then?"
"Do you even need to ask?" Wei Wuya smirked.
Jiang Feng shook his head, and Lian Xing sighed. "They say Xiao Mimi spent her life seducing men, always successfully. Who would have thought she'd meet her end at the hands of a man?"
Yao Yue let out a cold laugh. "This filthy rat doesn't even deserve to be called a man."
Lian Xing glanced at Yao Yue, surprised by her uncharacteristic mockery.
"Hehehe..." Wei Wuya cackled, "Don't think you can goad me into action. I'll stay right here, waiting for you all to starve and wither away. I want to see your fate unfold after three, five, even ten days!"
Yao Yue's expression changed abruptly.
Just then, knocking sounds came from outside the cave mansion.
