After Jiang Fan spoke, everyone finally sensed the crisis. It was indeed as Jiang Fan had said; they had no idea whether they were inside or outside the world they were currently in.
After all, looking up at the sky, it was still the same place as before.
A lush green jungle, not particularly difficult to observe. Although it was behind the white clouds, one could still see the jungle in the sky on a clear day.
There didn't seem to be such a place in the real world, did there?
Yet, everything by the sea was incredibly ordinary.
It felt as if they had already emerged into the real world.
After a satisfying meal, the few of them discussed matters concerning this place, discussing until evening. It was then that Zhou Niannian suddenly looked up and noticed something.
"Quick, look, isn't that the moon?"
Hearing this, Jiang Fan was momentarily puzzled, but when he raised his head and looked at the sky, he immediately understood.
Seven points of light, like light bulbs, appeared before them.
Clearly, these were seven moons.
Before, there were four moons, and now there were directly seven, and this last place appeared incredibly serene.
"Could it be that this is our final teleportation point? As long as we leave from here, we'll be completely gone."
Upon hearing this, everyone became very excited.
"Does that mean, as long as we cross this sea, we can reach the other side?"
Zhou Niannian asked Jiang Fan excitedly, but Jiang Fan shook his head indifferently.
"I don't know. Perhaps this sea is not the way to the exit. It might be in this jungle."
"Anything is possible, but since it's quite safe here, we can search slowly."
"But what's undeniable is that we seem to be truly safe now, truly able to leave."
Hearing this, Zhou Niannian and Dai Xiaomei, who were beside them, jumped up excitedly. The two embraced, and Yao smiled faintly at the sight.
However, this joyous atmosphere didn't last long.
After just a moment, the smiles on Dai Xiaomei and Zhou Niannian's faces disappeared.
It seemed they had been here for quite some time, and suddenly being able to leave made them feel a little unaccustomed.
"But honestly, it's been really fun here during this time. I never imagined there could be so many strange and peculiar creatures in this world."
"And I never thought insects could grow so large. It's simply incredible."
Dai Xiaomei quickly nodded in agreement. Hearing Zhou Niannian express her reluctance to leave this place first, she immediately agreed.
Because that was exactly how she felt, though she wasn't as direct as Zhou Niannian. While this place was very unique, it had also nearly cost them all their lives, including Gun Gun.
They were now hunters filled with wilderness survival skills.
Whether it was Jiang Fan, Yao, or the two girls, they all had some experience in surviving in the wild. Therefore, any one of them could survive safely in a normal wilderness area.
Just like today, Zhou Niannian and Dai Xiaomei could easily find food in the wilderness.
If they were placed in the real world, without extremely threatening creatures, they would be even more at ease.
Moreover, there was one thing that everyone found most difficult to accept: they didn't know if Gun Gun could leave with them.
"Gun Gun, can we take you with us?"
"Once we're outside, we'll live together, so you can stay with us."
Hearing this, Jiang Fan grabbed Zhou Niannian's hand and slowly shook his head while looking into her eyes.
Zhou Niannian thought Jiang Fan was unwilling to bring Gun Gun along, worried that Gun Gun might cause trouble. However, she didn't expect Jiang Fan to pull Zhou Niannian aside and say to her:
"Don't ask. If it doesn't want to leave with us, asking it like that will make it feel ungrateful."
"Gun Gun is intelligent. If it develops this kind of mindset, it will be greatly hurt. After we leave, it will probably be very sad."
"You must understand that this place is very special to Gun Gun, because it came here to find its master."
For a moment, Zhou Niannian had forgotten why Gun Gun had appeared here.
If Emperor Chi You had not had a trace here, Gun Gun would not have appeared in this place.
Zhou Niannian's eyes reddened. She let out a long sigh, her voice trembling, her lips quivering, as if she were extremely wronged.
"Then I don't know. I just wanted to take it out. After all, we've been through so much together, shared life and death. I'll surely be reluctant to part with it."
Seeing this, Jiang Fan felt immense heartache. He quietly reached out his hand and wiped away the tears that were about to fall from Zhou Niannian's face.
"Alright, don't worry. If there's a chance, can't we come back again?"
"We know everything about this place anyway. If we come back, it won't be as dangerous, right?"
In reality, both Zhou Niannian and Jiang Fan knew that returning would be quite unlikely.
No matter how familiar they were with this place, it was ultimately not a place one could enter or leave at will.
The dinosaurs alone could crush them with a single step, let alone those bizarre and numerous creatures.
However, Zhou Niannian didn't say much more. After all, it was Jiang Fan's decision, and she couldn't bring herself to object.
"Alright then, we'll respect Gun Gun's own wishes. If it wants to leave with us, it will naturally follow. If it doesn't want to leave with us, then Gun Gun will have to stay here."
After saying this, Zhou Niannian imagined Gun Gun surviving alone in this place in the future, looking lonely and forlorn, and still felt a pang of sadness.
However, after seeing Jiang Fan pull Zhou Niannian aside and say a few words, no one else brought up the issue. And Gun Gun was not foolish.
Although it knew Jiang Fan was not rejecting it, it still had to have its own thoughts.
