Chapter 282: Bullying an Oversized Rat and Stealing its Spring Water

Feng Chen and Zu Fei cautiously moved forward through the many paths before them. Not daring to underestimate what dangers could hide inside the ancient maze.

Rustle~

Walking without any signs of life or ancient traps, a small rat suddenly appeared as it skittered across the floor. Followed by the sound of something moving around from the path directly in front of them.

"Should we see where the sound is coming from…?"

Zu Fei turned to look over at Feng Chen as she asked, it had already been a few hours since they entered the ancient maze and they had still not encountered any traps or demon beasts. Let alone found a way out of the ancient maze.

By this point in time, she had already begun to grow a bit tired of following the different paths leading to more paths, that led towards even more paths in the underground maze… Something different finally appeared, causing her to grow more curious than cautious towards the origin of the sound.

"Yeah… But we still have to be careful, we never know what might be hiding inside of this place…"

Nodding his head in agreement with the curious Zu Fei, Feng Chen walked ahead as he cautiously began approaching the path where the sound of movement could be heard just a moment ago together with Zu Fei following closely behind him.

Following along the path from where the sound could be heard, Zu Fei and Feng Chen soon found themselves in the middle of a large opening different from the narrow paths they had been walking through for the last few hours.

All sorts of different plants covered the walls of the large opening as an artificial source of light could be seen shining above the opening in the shape of some sort of crystal, providing just enough light for the plants below to grow.

Rustle~

The sound that they had barely heard from earlier, could once again be heard as Zu Fei and Feng Chen both found the source of the sound in the middle of the room, in the shape of what could only be considered an oversized rat.

Hissss!

Hissing angrily the moment Feng Chen and Zu Fei entered, the oversized rat easily the size of a normal dog, showed off its sharp claws as it prepared to attack the two of them.

Feng Chen and Zu Fei did not feel scared when they saw the oversized rat, but instead relaxed as they clearly felt the strength of the oversized rat. Only barely reaching the Foundation Establishment Realm. Not something that they would worry about as someone in the Nascent Soul Realm.

"What is this… Why is it so big…?"

"Maybe because of something in here?"

Answering Zu Fei's question, Feng Chen began to inspect the small opening before finally focusing on a small spring with a small amount of water flowing from it before forming a small puddle beside the hissing oversized rat.

Hisss!

The oversized rat could not sense the strength of the two humans in front of it, as it angrily charged forward after seeing them ignoring it completely before beginning to move towards its water!

Whoosh!

Appearing a few centimeters away from Zu Fei, the oversized rat jumped into the air as it swiped down with its claws aggressively, creating a small arc through the air as the oversized rat's claws closed in on Zu Fei.

Ching~

Not paying any attention to the oversized rat as she crouched down together with Feng Chen and inspected the small spring, a transparent barrier made of qi surrounded her to block the claw attack of the oversized rat.

Bang!

Resulting in it being sent flying into a nearby wall, weakly sliding down as it fearfully looked over in the direction of Zu Fei. Not knowing how it had suddenly been sent flying earlier.

"It looks like the water from this spring is the reason why the rat grew so big… Looks like there might be something below this place…"

Inspecting the small spring closely along with the water slowly flowing out from it, Feng Chen quickly concluded as he tried to use his divine sense to follow the path that the water took to reach the opening where he and Zu Fei were currently located. Only to end up being blocked by something after a few dozen meters.

"Something is blocking me from continuing further…"

Muttering this to himself, Feng Chen gave up on exploring the origin of the spring water and retracted his divine sense.

"We should gather this spring water for now and find out what use it has when we get back to the sect! Zu Fei, can I leave that to you?"

"Yes!"

Observing the spring water closely while Feng Chen was trying to find the source of it, Zu Fei nodded her head hastily after hearing his order before taking out a small container made of leather that she had been carrying with her around her waist.

Whoosh~

Waving her hand, all the spring water began floating into the air before entering the small leather container in Zu Fei's hand under the helpless look of the oversized rat from the side.

"Done!"

Having taken all the spring water away in the small leather container, Zu Fei smiled happily as she reported this to Feng Chen.

"Didn't expect you would be carrying such an artifact around with you… Well, it did end up being quite useful… Let's get moving, there is only one path out of this place, and I have a feeling we will finally get out of this ancient maze…"

Showing a hint of surprise on his face after seeing the leather container that Zu Fei pulled out, Feng Chen soon turned to look towards the only path out of the lush opening that formed a larger underground cave… Outside of the path they had entered through.

"Let's get going! We still need to catch the Raging Flame Sect's Sect Master before he ends up disappearing!"

With those words from Feng Chen, both of them soon left the oversized rat's home and made their way through the larger path leading towards what both of them assumed was the other side of the ancient underground maze.

Leaving the injured oversized rat alone to stare fearfully at them as they left.
