Chapter 92: Chapter 092 Finally Saw a Glimmer of Dawn

Zhao Kang had observed Su Shu searching for items before and had a strange feeling in his heart. He always felt that the way she searched for things was as though she knew exactly what to do, gradually moving from the left to the right, and sometimes even disregarding safety to venture deeper into the area.

Zhao Kang narrowed his eyes in thought, then after a short moment, he signaled to the others to follow him over.

And so, led by Su Shu’s inexplicable searching method, everyone began a thorough, carpet-style search in the vicinity.

As the temperature of the ring grew hotter, Su Shu became increasingly anxious. She didn’t know what the scorching ring was leading her to find.

She secretly hoped it was guiding her to find Tang Zelin, so her heart was almost in her throat.

Zhao Kang, with a dagger in hand, protected her as they moved. The forest was too dense, and it was easy to get scratched by brambles. Seeing that she was totally focused on the search and not even paying attention to the cuts on her arm, he tried to clear the path ahead of her as much as he could.

Su Shu noticed this and couldn’t help but feel grateful.

After searching for about fifteen minutes, Su Shu suddenly stopped.

The group captain and the others also halted and turned their attention toward Su Shu.

She felt as though the middle finger that bore the ring was about to burn off, and the searing heat was even laced with sharp, needle-like pain.

This must be the place!

She stood still, turning to look around. Having reached this point, her intuition told her that Tang Zelin must be nearby; inexplicably, she just felt that he was close.

Zhao Kang said, “Miss Su, do you think it’s here?”

“I don’t know, but this place feels different from the others.”

Indeed, the place did feel different to her, with her fingertip feeling as if it was about to burn off. Strangely, she could only endure it, as the ring would not come off no matter how much she tried.

But she couldn’t tell Zhao Kang that she was finding people by the temperature of the ring’s space; she could only mention her ‘feeling’.

Feelings, mysterious and unfathomable, always seem to make sense whatever you say.

Within the search-and-rescue team, she was the only woman, and it’s often said that women have more developed sixth senses. Therefore, Zhao Kang did not question her further and immediately asked everyone to search carefully and closely in the nearby area.

And most importantly, stay safe!

If someone truly disappeared here, it would mean this place is even more dangerous. Caution is paramount.

While everyone was wholeheartedly searching for any possible clues, someone suddenly shouted, “Come quick! There seems to be someone here!”

Su Shu quickly looked up and rushed over upon hearing the news, with the others following as fast as they could.

Indeed, in the direction pointed by the warrior’s hand, there was a deep pit area hidden behind two large trees.

If it were not for the warrior’s attentiveness, this spot could have easily been missed due to the tree roots on the ground, causing someone to trip and fall in. Everyone gathered around, and without a word, Zhao Kang grasped the vines on the edge of the pit, using them to lower himself down to the person in distress. He checked the neck for a pulse and then shouted up, “They’re alive! Throw down a rope.”

From where Su Shu stood, she couldn’t see the face of the person below and was unable to confirm if it was Tang Zelin. She also wanted to go down and check, but the space below was already too cramped for a third person.

Zhao Kang examined the person’s body for severe injuries that would prevent moving them. Finding none, he gently tapped the person on the cheek with a bit of force.

“Hey there, wake up. Can you hear me speaking?”

After asking several times, the person finally managed to open their eyes weakly. Sudden light made it difficult to bear, and they could only vaguely see a blurred face. Their consciousness was still not fully clear, but subconsciously they felt that they might have been rescued.
