Invincible Urban Evil Doctor

Chapter 1004: Chapter 1013: Strange Looks (Part 1)

However, everyone was a little puzzled that although Lin Xi had entered many passages, he didn’t seem to have any Spirit Stone or secret manuals on him.

In everyone’s eyes, he was wearing a t-shirt and casual shorts, and the shorts only had two pockets that didn’t seem very big.

What could such pockets hold?

The key point is that these two pockets didn’t look like they contained anything from the outside.

Could there really be nothing inside the stone chambers in the passages?

He had explored so many, after all!

Especially the two elders from the Avril Clan, who were quite baffled.

What about the Spirit Stones and secret manuals in their stone chamber?

Where did he hide them?

Not long after, the group who sat cross-legged using Spirit Stones to recover also stopped using them to continue recovering.

By now, they felt their strength had already recovered to more than half.

To this degree, further recovery with Spirit Stones wouldn’t be of much use.

After all, the current drastic drop in their strength was caused by injuries.

There’s no way around it; they can only rely on slowly healing to recover.

"Should we go in and take another look?"

This was the thought in everyone’s minds, except for Lin Xi and Avril.

They believed that although Lin Xi seemed to have explored all the remaining passages, his pockets didn’t appear to contain anything, nor were there any bags on him.

Unlike them, who all carried small bags for holding Spirit Stones, secret manuals, and other treasures.

So they seriously suspected that Lin Xi only entered the passages but didn’t go into the stone chambers since he came out so quickly, it wouldn’t have been possible in terms of time.

Was this to disrupt their view?

The purpose was to prevent them from going in again?

Mind you, every time they explored a passage, they could obtain quite a few Spirit Stones and some other items.

Though there were numerous dangers inside, they had made up their minds, so without saying anything to Avril and Lin Xi, they re-entered the passages Lin Xi had explored.

Of course, this time they would be more cautious.

Avril and Lin Xi clearly understood the group’s thoughts but didn’t stop them, especially Lin Xi, who casually said, "Do as you please!"

"How are we going to get out later?" Avril asked Lin Xi after the others had entered the passages.

Lin Xi thought for a moment, "That giant bear is indeed a trouble, but in terms of preventing us from leaving, its strength is still somewhat lacking!"

Hearing this, Avril immediately perked up.

Even though her previous injuries and mental exhaustion had fully recovered, the worry in her heart was still there.

"Really?"

"You can really handle that giant bear?"

"The elder said it’s at the Innate middle stage. Before, even with all of us combined, it killed quite a few of us?"

Of course, she also knew that the giant bear had sustained some injuries.

But its injuries were relatively minor compared to theirs.

"It’s too old!" Lin Xi replied.

"You think so too?" A complex expression flashed across Avril’s face.

She had mentioned this to the elders earlier, but they hadn’t listened to her.

She even suggested forcibly breaking through, thinking there might be a chance.

But without the strength, no one believed her.

At that time, everyone had been scared out of their wits, and realizing it was at the Innate middle stage, had lost the will to fight.

"Otherwise, if it were at peak condition, I wouldn’t have been able to come in so easily."

"As for taking you out later, that would be even less possible."

"But now, its body is at its weakest in life, and it has sustained some prior injuries, so I can handle it alone."

Although Avril was deeply shocked, she had seen the giant bear’s seemingly unstoppable strength before.

Yet, for some reason, she believed Lin Xi’s words, thinking he wasn’t lying to her.

Probably because he had left too deep an impression on her.

She also felt that the elderly giant bear’s strength was declining from its peak.

While they continued talking, some people emerged from the passages, but their faces didn’t look good.

And when coming out, they all gave Lin Xi a peculiar look before re-entering the passages.

Soon, others also came out of the passages, looking quite downcast and curiously glancing at Lin Xi, before entering the passages again.

"What’s going on with them?" Avril was puzzled and asked Lin Xi.

Lin Xi showed a thoughtful expression and seriously said, "Maybe they think the two of us sitting here is a picture of perfect harmony!"

Avril, "..."

"Who’s your perfect harmony!" She rolled her eyes at Lin Xi, not wanting to deal with him.

Lin Xi chuckled, "Then maybe they think sitting next to me is the greatest happiness!"

Avril, "...."

She found it impossible to continue the conversation.

After that, the two watched as everyone, looking utterly dejected and extremely unwilling, went back and forth from the passages. Once everything was explored and the two elders approached, Avril asked,

"Elder, what happened?"

The elder with the broken arm replied, looking frustrated, "It was clean inside, nothing at all!"

They had explored five or six paths and found nothing.

Previously, they had explored four paths, and each passage’s stone chamber contained quite a few Spirit Stones and secret manuals.

But now, it was just too unbelievable.

The most critical point is that they had seen traces on the stone tables.

Which meant there had been things on them before, but they had been taken.

It was the same situation for the Hawke and Del parties.

At this moment, everyone looked at Lin Xi.

Because he was the only one who had gone into those passages alone.

Previously, they thought that given such a short time, he was merely pretending and hadn’t entered the stone chambers.

But now, their assumption seemed wrong.

Did he take them?

If he did, where did he put them?

So this was their biggest mystery!

Could it be that before they entered here, someone else had already come?

But that was almost impossible!

This was the first time the Holy Land was opened, and among those who entered this time, there were no others.

Alright!

To be honest, apart from the two elders from the Avril Clan not knowing Lin Xi well, no one else dared question him directly.

The elders, thinking of Lin Xi as one of their own, believed asking about the Spirit Stones in front of others would be foolish.

Should they even share with others?

That’s impossible now!

They planned to ask Lin Xi after splitting from the other two parties or leaving the Holy Land.

At that time, if Lin Xi had taken any Spirit Stones, they would belong entirely to the Butte Clan.

In their view, would Lin Xi dare to resist?

"Let’s go!" Lin Xi said to everyone as if unaware of their thoughts.

Then he took the lead, heading towards the direction where they had initially come, with Avril following behind.

The pair from Hawke and the trio from Del exchanged glances, sighed, and followed Lin Xi.

The two elders from the Avril Clan lingered at the back, exchanged looks, and saw their dissatisfaction with Lin Xi.

This young man seemed a bit arrogant, thinking he was the leader?
