Yes, the people who pushed the girl down was wearing the same uniform as her.

Shen Tianyu watched as the girl tried to struggle back onto the bridge. Yet, despite it being so close, it was as if the girl had entered a whirlpool, she kept sinking further and further down into the depths. Even when she managed to grab onto the edge of the bridge, the force pulling her down was strong enough to cause her to release it. As fear became more vividly etched on her face, she was dragged downwards. However, even though her mouth was flapping open and closed as if yelling or screaming, no noise came from the still waters, not even her flailing caused any sound much less ripples. She noticed that there were also no bubbles forming from the breath rapidly escaping from the girl into the surrounding liquid. She was pulled further and further away, just like the cinnabar stick, until not even her head of black hair could be seen.

"Hmm... well, that's definitely not regular water. There doesn't seem to be a bottom but the liquid isn't draining away. From the way she was sinking, it doesn't seem to be some kind of gel either." Shen Tianyu mumbled with her cheek in her hands. 

The people who are wearing the same uniform as the girl didn't seem bothered by what just happened at all and instead went back to discussing among themselves. 

The bridge they were on wasn't that high up from the endless lake so with the girl's height, she would have been able to pull herself back up. Yet, even though she had grabbed onto the edge of the bridge, she was unable to come back up. 

Shen Tianyu looked around them once more and then uttered out loud. "How about I jump in?" 

There was nothing around them that could serve as a clue or indicate anything. There was only a lake of unknown liquid below them and no other solid structure was in sight.

"What are you saying, Tian'er?!" Muo Jeng was the first one to jump on her and pin her arms, afraid she might really do it.

"Father-in-law is right. How could you think of that, Tian'er?" Rong Jian was the next t speak up. 

The others proceeded to swarm around her and block her off from the railing. 

"Well there's no other structure around and there's no clues on the bridge. Maybe below the liquid is where the rest of the Ascendant Monument is supposed to be." She calmly explained her reasoning. 

"Even if that was so. You shouldn't be the one to test it out!" Elder Yu anxiously urged her to let go of the idea.Find authorized novels in , faster updates, better experience, Please click #%E2%80%99s-courtesan-wife_11622167006444805/tianhao-ruins-(14)_52523936042242369 for visiting.

"Who else would there be? Have one of the others jump in like they did with the girl? I don't care about the girl but Yaodu is different. Besides, if there was indeed danger down there, who would be more equipped to fight than me?" She had an entire armory in her hands and an equally big arsenal of poisons. Among them all, in terms of tools, she was indeed the most fit to fight something off. Even Muo Jeng didn't bring that much stuff with him since he had come here in a rush and hasn't had time to make more.

"Miss, I can go!" Yun Tianhao thumped his c.h.e.s.t. "Though you may be more well-equipped, Miss, but tools aren't the only things we can use to fight!" 

Yun Tianhao's cultivation was actually higher than Shen Tianyu's current level. In fact, a lot of the older members had a higher level of cultivation than her. It was through her own cunning and arsenal that she had been able to beat some in spars. Nevertheless, it doesn't change the fact that they had a higher cultivation base and more spiritual power than her. So if there was indeed something down there, it was still more applicable to fight using spiritual energy. 

"If you leave, who's going to take charge of the party? And your cultivation is higher than mine, what if there isn't anything down there? What will happen to us when we lose a big fighter?" Shen Tianyu furrowed her brows.

"Don't we have Miss and the elders here? They can easily replace this buffoon, besides, Miss already has a level of certainty and that's why you suggested it in the first place, isn't it? Luo Shue, who had been quiet this whole time was the one to speak up.

"I think it's a better idea to have two go down at once. Just in case there's another puzzle. And in terms of fighting power, two is always better than one." The young man who had solved the puzzle to the bridge gave his calm analysis.

"And besides, that girl was pushed in against her will, it's completely different from voluntarily going down." Rong Jian chimed in. 

Shen Tianyu started to have a staring contest, knowing she couldn't win against this many mouths. However, she still could not win in the end. Though the younger recruits were confused why the higher-ups and older members were so devoted to this young girl they had only met today and didn't join, there were still more people than herself. 

"... Fine but you still need some talisman. One to communicate and one to teleport in case you're in danger at the very least." Shen Tianyu conceded under these conditions. At this rate, they would be stuck here until they became rotten corpses. Since once one entered an Ascendant Monument, they can not leave through the entrance. The only way to leave was if someone cleared the tests given by the owner. Even if you died here, your soul would be trapped until the Monument was cleared, then would the hold on your soul disappear and you'd be able to move into the other world, or wheel of reincarnation, whichever you believed in.

"Understood!" Yun Tianhao and the cold, scholarly man answered. The elder that was in charge of the Talisman section of Yaodu didn't come so Shen Tianyu ruffled through her belongings to take out the talismans she had outlined.
