After Yun Yuan's words, the unruly Bai Wuji actually bowed his head slightly towards Xie Yuan: "I was too reckless just now, please forgive me, Uncle Xie."

Yun Yuan spoke and Bai Wuji apologized. With these two steps, Xie Yuan no longer insisted and snorted as a response.

After this little episode, Yun Yuan smiled and said to Tian Yang: "Then, please lead the way."

Even someone as arrogant as Bai Wuji was very respectful to Yun Yuan. How could Tian Yang dare to act rashly? He just said, "Follow me," and walked out of the warehouse.

After determining the direction, Tianyang led this elite team towards the rat's nest.

On the way, the boy always felt Yun Yuan's gaze moving back and forth over him.

He couldn't help but smile bitterly, thinking to himself, could it be that this Mr. Yun saw through something about him

"Tianyang, who else is there in your family?"

Halfway through the journey, Yun Yuan suddenly asked the young man.

Tian Yang was stunned for a moment, not knowing why Yun Yuan asked this question, but he still answered: "I have lived with my mother in the Lower City since I was a child. Unfortunately, my mother passed away a few months ago."

Yun Yuan apologized: "I'm sorry for bringing up your sad memories."

Tian Yang shook his head and said with a smile: "Second Master, you are too kind."

Yun Yuan asked again: "Then have you got married?"

Tianyang almost stumbled, feeling somewhat confused, but he still shook his head: "No, and I don't want to get married for the time being."

Yun Yuan laughed and said, "Why? It's not a bad thing for young people to get married and have a family early. Besides, men will work harder after they have a family. That's how I got through it."

Tian Yang asked curiously, "Second Master got married very early?"

Yun Yuan nodded happily: "I got married when I was 18, and now my children are as old as you. Let me ask you one more question, do you have a girl you like?"

Tianyang's mouth twitched, and he thought that Mr. Yun was a little too nosy. Why did he care so much about these things

"No..." Tianyang said casually, but his mind unconsciously flashed through the appearance of Xun and Xiaoniao, so he hesitated and changed his words: "I guess so..."

Finally, he said uncertainly, "Well, I'm not sure either."

Yun Yuan laughed loudly and said with a look of deep understanding: "When I was your age, I was also ignorant. Although I was close to a few girls, I didn't know whether I liked them or not."

"Ah, time flies by so fast. In the blink of an eye, I'm already middle-aged. In fact, my marriage was arranged by my family. I didn't even see what the girl looked like."

"But after getting along with each other, it's not bad. So the person you start a family with may not be the one you like. But the person who can stay with you must be the one who loves you."

Yun Yuan blinked his eyes: "If you were asked to choose, would you rather choose someone you like, or someone who loves you?"

Tian Yang was puzzled and asked, "Can't I pick someone I like and who loves me?"

Yun Yuan gently patted his shoulder: "You are still young, and you will know in the future that things in the world are not always as we wish. We are always faced with different choices. There is a very good saying in the world of adversity, which is 'You can't have your cake and eat it too.'"

"I give it to you, hoping that one day when you need to make a choice, you can make the best decision."

Tian Yang was confused, but still thanked him.

Guo Yunyuan’s guidance.

Soon, they arrived at the rat's nest. This place had been cleaned up by the Yunlong team. Apart from some traces of the decomposition of the black people, there was basically nothing worth noting.

Tianyang led Yunyuan and the others to the hole connecting to the hall, pointed inside and said, "That's where Young Master Yunze reports."

Yun Yuan nodded and took two steps back: "Lighting."

Shunhua stepped forward, threw a few glow sticks inside, drew out her sword, and went into the cave.

After a while, there was a bright light in the cave. It was probably because he had fired a few flares inside.

"You can come in now, Master."

Shunhua's voice came from the cave, and Yunyuan went in without thinking.

Others filed in, with Tianyang walking at the end. Before he entered the hall, he heard exclamations. These people must have been shocked by what was in the hall.

Tianyang entered the hall. The hall was still the same as before, with several pillars supporting the dome, a tall iron base in the distance, and those shapeless worshippers below.

The young man noticed that Shunhua was holding an instrument that looked like a pistol and was measuring something. After a moment, he said to Yunyuan, "The concentration of dark particles here is extremely high. The strange thing is that they seem to be fixed by something and not a single drop of them has flowed out of the hall."

"Dark particles?" Tianyang had never heard of this term.

Bai Wuji looked at him and said softly, "The energy used by us Ascenders is called Star Essence, and the power controlled by the Dark People is called Dark Particles. Their energy is in the form of countless particles, so it is defined by scholars as such."

Tianyang nodded and said, "I'm grateful for your advice."

Bai Wuji didn't say anything, but walked straight to the dangerous archway on the side of the hall.

"Wait." Tian Yang stopped him and said, "Don't open that door. There are some dangerous things inside."

Bai Wuji said proudly: "We are here for this. No matter what is behind the door, there is only one ending, and that is death!"

He continued to move forward.

"Wait a minute, Wuji." Yun Yuan said calmly, "You will have a chance to show off later, but now just be quiet."

Perhaps in this team, only Yun Yuan could calm him down. After hearing this, the fellow stopped moving forward and sat down on the ground, closing his eyes to rest.

Yun Yuan stayed in the hall for half an hour. He carefully observed the huge iron base on the platform, the pillars supporting the dome, and the invisible worshippers who would fall down if their clothes were lifted.

But in the end, he was unable to explain the strange phenomena in the hall.

"It seems that there are indeed things in this place that cannot be explained, but we are not here to study the hall, so we should leave this matter to scholars to solve."

Yun Yuan looked at the dangerous archway and said, "Now, let's get down to business and clear out the things in the door."

He gestured.

Two tall men came out, and the star essence appeared, connecting everyone and adding a star essence barrier. It turned out that they were two fortress classes.

After Lian Tianyang was reinforced with a layer of star barrier, one of them walked towards the gate. He stopped in front of the gate, spread his legs, and supported his body. He put his hands together, and a circle of light yellow ripples spread out from him.

Wherever the ripples passed, the space felt reinforced and heavy, as if an invisible fortress was built around everyone.

In this fortress, people feel particularly safe.

At this time, Yun Yuan said, "Who will open the door?"

Bai Wuji, who had kept his eyes closed, suddenly opened them and shouted, "I'll do it!"

He naturally had an extra layer of star barrier on his body, and Bai Wuji, who jumped up, suddenly released a fiery aura. A circle of bright yellow light flowed around the body of the young master of the Bai family, and the light flowed like a solar corona.

Tianyang's heart skipped a beat. Bai Wuji had already used his "body of heavy light"!

It seems that although this man is confident, he also knows how to be cautious. He uses his strongest state instead of rashly opening the dangerous archway.

At this moment, Tianyang stood in the corner of the hall, near the exit. This place was full of elite masters in the control area. If Yunyuan hadn't inexplicably asked him to lead the team, he, a small character who hadn't updated his rank information, would have no chance to stand here.

Tianyang was also happy to "stand by and watch" so that he could see what was behind the door.

Footsteps were heard, and Bai Wuji had already reached the door. He took a deep breath, activated his Xing Yun, and then slowly pushed open the archway.

As soon as the archway opened, a gust of cold wind blew out from the gap in the door.

Although Tianyang's view was blocked by the people in front of the door, he could probably guess from the change in the aura in the hall that those strange shadows should be stirring inside the door.

As expected, Tianyang's guess was correct. As Bai Wuji pushed open the door, a shadow quietly flowed out from the crack of the door like flowing water.

Bai Wuji's mind was completely focused on the door, not paying any attention to the ground. However, as soon as the shadow came out of the door, it seemed to be frightened by something and suddenly stopped.

After a brief pause, a faint, illusory scream sounded in the hall, but only a few people heard it.

Among them, Bai Wuji, who was closest to the arch, heard it most clearly, while Tianyang, who was farthest away, only caught a faint tail sound.

Amid the screams, the shadow that had paused on the ground suddenly rushed forward, and the edge of the shadow continued to dissipate, as if it was offset by some force.

But the darkest shadow in the middle stabbed at Bai Wuji's shadow like a sharp blade!

Bai Wuji finally felt something and shouted loudly, and the yellow light around him suddenly turned into a dazzling light.

As soon as the light touched the shadow on the ground, the shadow suddenly made a sizzling sound, black smoke rose, and the ground sank into a gully of the same size as the shadow.

At this moment, a scream came from inside the door, and there was a sense of hurt in the scream.

The light converged and returned to its original bright yellow color, flowing around Bai Wuji like a corona.

Bai Wuji's face turned pale. If he had not discovered it in time, and if the shadow had touched his own shadow, who knows what terrible things would have happened.

Thinking of this, Bai Wuji snorted and pointed inside the door.

The light around him circulates, converges at his fingertips, and emits a bright beam of light.

The beam of light hit the darkness inside the door, and the thick darkness seemed to be burned by something. There was a crackling sound in the door, and a scream like a wounded beast was heard.

Hearing those cries, Tianyang wanted to communicate with the black fog, extend his thoughts, and see what the scene inside the door was like. But there were too many masters in the hall, especially with a figure like Yun Yuan, Tianyang did not dare to take the risk.

I could only suppress my curiosity, try to move to a place with fewer people, and look at the archway...
