Tang San's gaze first focused on Dai Mubai.

Dai Mubai coughed lightly after feeling Tang San's gaze, then quickly turned around and walked behind Zhu Zhuqing in a hurry. Then, he stretched out his hand without hesitation, tightly grasped Zhu Zhuqing's small hand which was as white and tender as mutton-fat jade, and deliberately pretended to be worried, focusing all his attention on Zhu Zhuqing's fingers.

Seeing this scene, Tang San couldn't help but frowned slightly.

His sight then turned to Ma Hongjun on the other side. Ma Hongjun seemed to sense Tang San's gaze, his body trembled violently, and then he turned around slowly as if he was cast a spell of immobilization. However, the expression on his face was extremely stiff, as if he was wearing a mask.

Just like that, Ma Hongjun walked step by step to behind Ning Rongrong, and then stood there quietly like a sculpture.

At this moment, the whole scene fell into a strange silence.

When people feel embarrassed and overwhelmed, they often appear to be extremely busy, as if this can cover up the anxiety deep in their hearts.

As for the good brothers who have known each other for many years and know each other well, Tang San naturally knows what Dai Mubai and Ma Hongjun's abnormal behavior means.

As a result, Tang San's expression instantly became solemn. He stared closely at the people in front of him and asked anxiously and nervously, "Are you... hiding something from me?"

Hearing Tang San's question, several people present looked at each other, but in the end no one spoke, because they knew very well that the matter of inheriting the divine throne was too dangerous, and the slightest carelessness might cause Tang San to fall into an irretrievable situation.

Moreover, they firmly believed that if Tang Nian were here, he would definitely choose to keep his mouth shut to Tang San.

Looking at the people with their lips tightly shut and not saying a word, Tang San already understood everything.

He took a deep breath and tried to calm his increasingly anxious emotions. He knew very well that since these guys were determined to conceal the truth, no matter how he asked, he would not be able to get the answers he wanted from them.

Thinking of this, Tang San slowly turned around and walked towards the door with heavy steps, as if every step was carrying a heavy burden.

They refused to say, but Dean Flanders or the master must know.

……

Tang Nian has always possessed extraordinary patience.

However, in recent days, she seemed like a different person, becoming increasingly anxious and restless.

Even though she was the vessel that held the power of the Yellow Springs Road and encountered setbacks during this difficult period of absorption, she had never felt such intense agitation.

The reason for the problem was actually with Qian Shiye.

At first, he was quite well behaved, just standing far away and looking at Tang Nian from time to time, but such behavior was still within the range that Tang Nian could tolerate.

But for some reason, the situation has taken a sharp turn for the worse in recent days.

Qian Shiye's eyes seemed to be under a spell, glued to Tang Nian, refusing to move away for even a moment.

The scorching gaze that was like a burning flame made it difficult for Tang Nian to ignore it. He just felt like sitting on pins and needles, feeling uncomfortable all over.

Due to the special relationship between the two, Tang Nian thought it would be a bit strange to break the silence between them abruptly.

Therefore, despite feeling extremely helpless, she chose to remain silent and silently confronted Qian Shiye.

But Qian Shiye's gaze became more and more unscrupulous.

Tang Nian even began to doubt whether Qian Shiye could not blink at all, otherwise why would he stare at her for such a long time?

Faced with such a difficult situation, Tang Nian was extremely anxious and his mind was rapidly thinking of a countermeasure.

However, after much thought, she found that the only feasible way at the moment was to complete the second test of Yama God against the clock.

Because only by passing this assessment would she have a glimmer of hope to escape from this embarrassing and awkward predicament.

After making up his mind, Tang Nian did not dare to slack off at all. He began to concentrate and rack his brains to think of every possible way to speed up the absorption of the Yellow Springs aura.

She mobilized all her energy and attention, trying to establish a closer connection with the mysterious and powerful Yellow Springs aura.

However, things often do not develop as smoothly as Tang Nian expects.

Perhaps it was because he was too eager and had less speed, or there were some other unknown reasons, the Yellow Springs aura was not absorbed into his body in large quantities as Tang Nian wished.

On the contrary, it is becoming increasingly rare.

As time passed, the amount of Yellow Springs aura Tang Nian absorbed became less and less, and the portion that could be converted into his own strength became even more negligible.

Especially today, the situation is extremely bad.

She had been busy from the time the sun rose in the early morning until now when the sun was setting and night was approaching. A whole day had passed, but the Yellow Springs aura that Tang Nian had absorbed with great effort had gradually dissipated like light smoke and mist, as if it had never appeared, leaving her with nothing in the end.

Tang Nian closed his eyes tightly, carefully feeling the pitifully weak breath of the underworld in his body.

After a long period of unremitting efforts, she had only collected 20% of the total. This result was undoubtedly a heavy blow to Tang Nian, who was determined to quickly improve her strength.

In an instant, a deep and strong feeling of despair surged into her heart like a tide, instantly drowning her, making her feel completely hopeless and with no desire to live.

If it continues to develop at such a slow pace, it will take an indefinite time before all the Yellow Springs aura can be successfully transformed into one's own power.

Tang Nian was not clear.

But if she continues like this, when the stipulated time comes, Tang Nian still has not completed the second test of the Eye of Yama God, and what will eventually await her is only ruthless annihilation.

Thinking of this, Tang Nian felt a chill running down his spine to his forehead, his hair stood on end, and he felt a creepy feeling.

She subconsciously shrank her neck, as if a pair of cold hands were gently stroking the back of her neck, bringing a slight chill.

Without any hesitation, Tang Nian took a deep breath, calmed himself, and once again devoted himself to absorbing the Yellow Springs aura.

However, Tang Nian, who was fully focused on absorbing the Yellow Spring's aura at the moment, did not notice that in a corner beyond her sight, Shi Ye was gritting his teeth and clenching his hands into fists. His knuckles turned slightly white due to excessive force.
