The seventh day of Cultivation outside the underground cavern.
Director Ruan and the others still hadn't returned.
Gu Ming had considered that outdoor expeditions carried risks, but he never expected his very first club activity to turn into a "team wipe" fiasco.
He didn't know whether to call it good luck or bad.
In any case, his caution had kept him from joining the deep exploration.
The few club members who had stayed behind went from being rock-steady to gradually growing anxious.
By the seventh day, before sunset, they took the initiative to contact the university, reporting that Director Ruan's team had not returned for seven days and might have met with disaster.
It was worth noting something here.
Outdoor expeditions, after all, have uncertain timelines. Being gone for a mere three or four days meant nothing.
Perhaps the path inside was longer than expected, or maybe they had only just found the way within those few days, resulting in zero progress or gains.
