Chapter 306: The Forbidden Valley

Just as Yue Mingxuan thought something might happen to him, he discovered that there was nothing particularly dangerous within this forbidden area.

“This place clearly isn’t that dangerous, so why is it called a forbidden ground…?” Yue Mingxuan was filled with curiosity.

The place resembled a cave, yet rather than danger, it exuded an eerie atmosphere.

A cold wind howled through the area, making it seem extremely unsettling.

Yue Mingxuan guessed that perhaps it had been designated as a forbidden ground by Flying Opera Group simply because it was too sinister.

However, for someone like Yue Mingxuan, who had entered tombs before and more than once this place held little fear for him.

“I wonder what’s so special about this place.”

Yue Mingxuan wandered around nearby but did not discover anything dangerous.

Instead, he felt that the surrounding environment was rather unusual.

“I really wonder what this place is and why it was classified as forbidden.”

Yue Mingxuan looked around carefully.

There did not seem to be anything particularly strange aside from the walls being exceptionally smooth.

“A place like this might have a hidden chamber or something.”

As he thought this, Yue Mingxuan began searching around.

Generally speaking, if there were secret passages in such places some of the bricks would certainly feel different.

Another method would be to knock along the walls continuously, but that approach was both time-consuming and labor-intensive, so Yue Mingxuan did not plan to use it for now.

Sure enough, among the smooth walls, there was one section that felt unusually rough.

With just a bit of force, Yue Mingxuan managed to push that section open.

The scene inside left him utterly shocked.

Although the Piaoxiang Courtyard was filled with beautiful people, even those who carried out the most menial tasks were still considered beauties.

However, the people here while beautiful seemed to be missing something.

Some were missing arms, others were missing legs.

Even worse, some who should have had beautiful faces were covered in horrifying scars.

At that very moment, the door behind Yue Mingxuan suddenly slammed shut with a loud “bang.”

And Yue Mingxuan who is startled nearly cried out, but he quickly covered his mouth.

He knew this was definitely not a good place.

The air here was foul.

Unlike the fragrant atmosphere of Piaoxiang Courtyard, this place was filled with the stench of corpses.

It was only after regaining his composure that Yue Mingxuan noticed it.

Perhaps the earlier sight had been so shocking that it caused him to overlook his surroundings.

Yue Mingxuan stood there in a daze as he staring at the horrifying scene before him.

He had never imagined that such a place could exist within Flying Opera Group.

“What exactly is this place? Why are there so many people here?” Yue Mingxuan’s mind was filled with questions.

Although he had become the group leader of Flying Opera Group by accident, he had rarely stayed within the sect to manage its affairs.

Therefore, there were still many places within the group that Yue Mingxuan was not familiar with.

He carefully searched through his memories for information about Flying Opera Group, hoping to determine exactly where this place was.

However, from the moment he entered until now, not a single person here had paid any attention to him.

Their expressions were completely numb, showing neither joy nor sorrow.

If Yue Mingxuan had ever seen such a scene before, the only place it resembled was the Cold Palace.

But this was clearly Flying Opera Group, it could not possibly be the Cold Palace.

Yue Mingxuan understood this very well, yet he simply could not recall what this place actually was.

Since this place was designated as a forbidden ground, it must be an inauspicious area.

When he had first taken over Flying Opera Group, he had never heard anything about where such a forbidden place might be.

At that moment, Yue Mingxuan noticed someone different among the group.

Although she was lying there asleep, her appearance was still breathtakingly beautiful.

She had been sleeping the entire time as though she had not awakened for a very very long time.

There was no one near her.

It was as if everyone had reached a silent agreement to form an empty circle around her and she lay in the very center of that circle like a sacrificial offering.

Most importantly, Yue Mingxuan recognized her face.

Wasn’t she the former group leader of Flying Opera Group Bai Huayue?!

Yue Mingxuan was utterly shocked.

His earlier thoughts had only been a passing joke; he had never truly believed he would find Bai Huayue in a place like this.

Moreover, judging by her condition, she had likely been here for an unknown length of time.

Yue Mingxuan quickly move forward and checked Bai Huayue’s pulse. He discovered that her vital signs were extremely weak.

She had probably been abandoned here for quite some time and had not eaten a single grain of food during that period.

If it were not for the internal energy still sustaining her life, Yue Mingxuan might not have found her alive at all.

Without hesitation, Yue Mingxuan began searching through his spatial bracelet for anything that could save her whether it’s food or water.

At this moment, those were what Bai Huayue needed most.

“Sister Bai, you mustn’t let anything happen to you!” Yue Mingxuan prayed silently in his heart.

If Bai Huayue were found dead here, then regardless of anything else, Tang Lubao would certainly not spare him.

However, when Yue Mingxuan touched Bai Huayue, he noticed that the surrounding women here were staring at him with cold and emotionless eyes.

Yet none of them dared to step forward.

He did not know what was happening, but he continued tending to Bai Huayue, fearing that something might go wrong.

He could not tell how much time had passed.

In this forbidden place, there was no distinction between day and night and no sense of time at all.

By the time Bai Huayue slowly awakened, Yue Mingxuan himself was nearly falling asleep.

“Where is this—” Bai Huayue’s voice was extremely weak.
