278 The Black Hole Is Not That Simple

As she said that, Aloy suddenly stopped and looked at Shen Fei. “However, since he’s following us, it proves that he must want something from us, maybe we could offer help in exchange for something else.”

Hearing this, Shen Fei nodded his head. Although he despised Li Yuan very much, since the other young man wished to follow them, he would let him follow… for the moment.

“Let’s go,” Aloy said. Then, the two of them continued on their way.

After a while, a figure appeared in front of them. It was a young man, tall and slender, dressed in green, with a bit of arrogance between his brows.

!!
They did not expect there to be people dwelling inside the black hole—other than the person they first encountered upon entering this realm.

This young man clearly was not an acquaintance of Shen Fei and Aloy’s, yet he looked at them with a playful expression in his eyes.

“Shen Fei, this young sir doesn’t look like a good person. Should we leave first?” Aloy asked.

“No, I’d like to see what he’s up to,” Shen Fei said lightly. As he spoke, Shen Fei’s eyes were fixed on the young man, and vigilance rose in his heart.

‘This young man’s cultivation is quite strong. And there’s a special power in his eyes.’ Shen Fei felt very uncomfortable as he thought this. At this moment, he had already determined that this youth was not an ordinary person.

“Hehe, we meet again.”

The young man glanced at Shen Fei and Aloy, the corner of his mouth curving up slightly. His smirk carried a somewhat teasing expression.

“Who the hell are you?” Shen Fei pondered for a while and asked.

“Me?” The young man shrugged and smiled. “My name is Su Yang. As for why I’m here, I’m not sure either. I was waiting somewhere for a while before I was sucked into the black hole… and I just woke up to see you two. This must be my lucky day.”

Shen Fei and Aloy exchanged looks with each other, and their hearts filled with doubt.

“Why have you been following us?” Aloy frowned.

“Haha, that’s right. I like to see you two panic. This is your first time here, right? I advise you not to dream of leaving this place. Otherwise, I’ll make you regret being born into this world.” Su Yang snorted coldly, his eyes flashing with ruthlessness.

Hearing this, Shen Fei frowned. He did not quite understand the logic behind his words.

‘Wasn’t this black hole realm created by Mayor Edward to test them? Why is this guy saying that we shouldn’t even think about leaving this place, or he would make us regret being born into this world?’

However, Shen Fei naturally would not ask about these things, because he simply did not know enough to ask. He chose to see where this would go instead.

“Shen Fei, regardless of who is the master of the black hole, I hope that you won’t have direct conflict with this young man. There’s more to him than what we see,” Aloy reminded Shen Fei with a worried tone.

“Don’t worry, Aloy. I can handle my own problems,” Shen Fei said, offering her a smile.

“It seems like you don’t know the dangers of this black hole.” Su Yang suddenly laughed and said, “I’ll tell you, this black hole is not that simple.”

Hearing Su Yang’s words, Shen Fei and Aloy’s interests were piqued.

“Oh, is there anything special about this black hole?” Shen Fei asked.

“Of course, it’s extraordinary! That’s because there’s a terrifying magical beast in this black hole—a magical world-eating beast!”

Hearing this, Shen Fei’s face changed. He knew that the existence of black holes was very strange. However, he had never heard of such a thing existing in a black hole.

After all, there were not many magical world-eating beasts. And if they had a trace of spiritual intelligence, they could evolve into a Demon King, or even reach the level of a half-Saint, and become the leader of a generation of beasts.

“A magical beast…?” Aloy’s expression changed as well, because she had heard of magical world-eating beasts, and they should be sealed away. They all had astounding strength, and could be quite the match against even the strongest cultivators in the world.

Su Yang did not appear to be lying. “That’s right. There’s indeed a terrifying magical beast here. It’s said to have devoured countless worldly spirit items, and has terrifying strength.”

Su Yang continued, “Of course, you don’t have to be afraid. I’m only here to help you. I won’t hurt you. ”

“What do you want?” Aloy asked, frowning.

“What do you think? If I wanted to hurt you, I would’ve done it long ago. Why would I waste my time talking nonsense with you? It’s because I also want to enter the depths of the black hole for myself.

“What I want is very simple. I just want to obtain some kind of strange energy in this black hole. Anything else is useless to me.” Su Yang added, “If you trust me, we can work together to fight for the strange energy in this black hole.”

Aloy hesitated for a moment and asked, “Why do you want to get the strange energy in the black hole? Could it be that this black hole is hiding some secret?”

“Of course, it’s not just that.” Su Yang looked at Shen Fei. “When I was in the mayor’s mansion, I watched you, Young Master Shen Fei. I don’t know if you still remember.”

Hearing this, Shen Fei’s heart suddenly jumped. He felt that something was wrong. He did not expect Su Yang to recognize him this way.

Shen Fei was silent for a long time before slowly opening his mouth, “I don’t know you.”

“Hahaha, it’s fine. So, there’s a strange energy in the black hole where all the magical beasts are. I need you to help me get it.”

Su Yang laughed out loud. He then looked at Aloy with a burning gaze. “Young lady, if you’re willing, you can stay with me. I’ll protect you.”

Su Yang had a refined and gentlemanly appearance. However, Aloy shook her head and refused. “I don’t need anyone’s protection.”

Hearing this, Su Yang’s lips curled into a cold smile. Then, he stretched out his hand and drew a line in the air. A sharp dagger instantly appeared in his palm.

“Dammit, what are you trying to do?” Shen Fei’s expression changed because he realized that Su Yang’s hand was holding a sharp dagger. In the next moment, the dagger turned and attacked Shen Fei.

“Shen Fei, be careful!” Aloy cried.

Shen Fei quickly dodged when he saw the dagger.

“Whether you help or not, it’s up to you,” Su Yang said sinisterly.

Su Yang’s attack power was quite terrifying. Even Shen Fei did not dare to say that he could win against Su Yang if they were to really fight head-on.

Moreover, Su Yang’s current strength clearly surpassed his several fold.
