For Ye An.
The progress bar for surviving seven days in the main mission has reached 99%.
It is now afternoon and approaching evening, and if we wait for the last few seconds, the task will automatically end.
Because it had been anticipated, even though the rebellion occurred, it was resolved quickly.
It's like reading a mission guide.
The leaves of the world tree that can predict the future outcome are indeed of great use. At least, today's disaster was avoided.
Otherwise, today, Ye An and the others would have to fight to the death, and they would not have any hope of escaping until they were badly bruised. Even death in battle was not impossible.
But in fact, there is still one final hidden danger that needs to be sorted out.
For Qi Xi, today's changes include the already expected rebellion of the Sifang Hall Master and the emergence of the Crescent Sect.
What really needs attention is the maid Yue'er beside her.
Qi Xi has already determined that Yue'er is a member of the Crescent Sect. However, in the Crescent Sect, whether her status is higher than that of the Sifang Hall Master, what her status is, and why the rebellion did not take the opportunity to take action today are all mysteries. question.
"Wait a moment."
Ye An suddenly took Qi Xi's hand and said, "Is it okay?"
He glanced at the maid Yue'er.
The latter seemed very tired. After taking the elixir, he couldn't help but close his eyes and rest for a while. He had no fighting ability at all.
Qi Xi rubbed Ye An's head and smiled softly, "Of course, don't worry."
"What's wrong? Are you worried?"
Ye An nodded and said, "I'm a little worried."
Qi Xi said: "Although it is good to have your help, you have already done too much. Just leave Yue'er's affairs to me. Besides, she is best at poisoning in secret. She is afraid that you won't know when she will die. .”
Ye An asked: "What about you?"
Qi Xi smiled and said: "Have you ever heard of any ancient god who died of poisoning? What's more, the law of heaven is still protecting me for the time being. Even if I die, my soul will not be scattered."
Ye An was silent for a while and nodded slowly.
According to Qi Xi's explanation, due to the weakening of the Heavenly Dao and the loss of the Son of Destiny, it would be impossible to cultivate the next empress or the Son of Destiny for a while. At this moment, he had to continue to save Qi Xi for the time being, even though she was already a sinner in the Heavenly Dao.
However, Ye An still wanted to argue: "It is rumored that Emperor Yan died of poisoning after tasting Baicao..."
clatter!
Qi Xi raised his hand, flicked his forehead, and said, "Later, Emperor Yan became a god and was resurrected."
"What are you thinking about? Just stay here."
After saying that, Qixi took steps.
Ye An watched her graceful back gradually fade away, and in her hand, the outline of the holy spear slowly emerged.
It seemed that Qi Xi was completely sure about Yue'er, so he didn't say anything and just killed her.
In this case, the reason why Yue'er did not take action in this rebellion must be that she discovered something was wrong, so she decided to continue hiding it.
And now, Qi Xi is going to wipe out the roots, even though Yue'er is her maid who has been with her for a long, long time.
Ye An temporarily put aside his worries, he knew the horror of that holy spear. In short, just don’t let your loopholes be taken advantage of and be counterattacked because you talk too much. It is obvious that Qi Xi is not the kind of person who talks too much.
At this time, the sound transmission stone had been ringing for a long time.
Ye An took out the sound transmission stone and soaked his consciousness into it.
However, there was silence in the sound transmission stone, without any sound.
"Your Highness the Saint?" he asked tentatively.
There was still no reply, and Ye An had a bad feeling in his heart.
boom-
At this moment, a sound came from the sound transmission stone.
It seemed like something had fallen to the ground.
…
…
Before that.
In the ancient country of Tranquility Sea.
After collecting some scrolls, Mu Qingxue decided to go to the third underground floor again.
The deeper you go into this ancient underground altar, the more oppressive and heavy the air becomes, especially the pungent smell of bloody dampness that makes you feel particularly uncomfortable.
"In such an important place, there should be guards, but there is no one here. Either the altar here is abandoned, or something big happened and the guards were mobilized and left..."
Mu Qingxue was cautious and murmured in her heart.
She was afraid that if she didn't pay attention, she would be attacked and killed by a "monster" that suddenly appeared like the ending in the playbook, so she looked around and was particularly worried.
Walk through the long stairs until you reach the altar on the third underground floor.
She was still safe and sound.
The surrounding night pearls are dazzling, illuminating this place. It is clearly visible that this is still a bronze palace, but the further you go down, the bigger the bronze palace becomes.
It was different from the previous scene of a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood.
Here, there are heavy and strange bronze coffins everywhere.
"Coffin...?"
Walking down the stairs carefully, Mu Qingxue couldn't help but be stunned when she saw the scene around her.
Each bronze coffin has a scroll hanging on its lid.
Mu Qingxue took a cautious step forward and reached out to touch the scroll.
She originally thought that the bronze coffin would undergo strange changes, such as something dirty jumping out of it, but unexpectedly, nothing happened, as if the person inside was really dead - although this might be nonsense.
"Name: Ji Yunkang."
"Fitness with the Jianmu Tree: 50%."
"Remarks: Head of the Ji family"
"Grade: B-medium"
There was a portrait afterwards, which was the old face of the head of the Ji family.
Mu Qingxue frowned slightly and stared at the portrait. She suddenly felt that her thoughts were blank.
"B-level medium...could it be said that even the head of the Ji family was turned into a puppet? Wait - when is this?"
Mu Qingxue flipped the scroll back and forth, but the time was no longer written on the scroll.
"There is no record of time..."
She suddenly froze, trembling inside, and took a few steps back.
The deathlike silence in the bronze hall, with only coffins scattered everywhere, and the sounds of the dead echoing from time to time, made her feel scared.
In order to verify some of her guesses, she boldly stepped forward and took down more scrolls from the bronze coffin.
"Name: Ji Changge"
"Fitness with the Jianmu Tree: 30%."
"Grade: Grade C, medium"
"Name: Ji Changan"
"Grade: Grade C, lower grade"
"Name: Ji Long"
“…”
“…”
Mu Qingxue was silent for a long time, then raised her head suddenly, only to realize that she had gone around in a circle, and among the group of coffins on the outermost edge, they were all members of the Ji family, and without exception, everyone had no scrolls. Write the time.
This bronze palace is particularly vast, several times wider than the first two floors. The outermost circle contains the coffins of the Ji family. A rough calculation shows that there must be hundreds of people.
"They are all from the Ji family..."
"Could it be said that all the Ji family members have been refined into puppets? How is that possible?"
Mu Qingxue suddenly couldn't help but wanted to push the coffin lid open to see whether the person buried inside was a human or a ghost.
But after hesitating for a moment, she was still... scared.
"It's better to be careful..."
She breathed a long sigh of relief and murmured to herself: "Don't worry about anything, just look for my father."
It can be said that there are thousands of graves here, and it is not even known whether there are living people buried in them. Only by comforting herself in this way could she barely breathe a sigh of relief.
Even so, it is still too difficult to find his father's coffin in the vast sea of coffins, let alone whether there is his father's coffin among them.
Mu Qingxue raised her head slightly, staring at the end with her clear eyes -
Similar to the first two floors, there is still an altar at the end of the hall.
There is one difference. In the center of the altar, there is also a coffin.
However, it was not made of bronze, but a crystal coffin.
One glance reveals the noble identity of the person buried within.
Mu Qingxue cautiously stepped forward and saw the person in the crystal coffin... not a skeleton, but a woman. Even she was fascinated by her exquisite and beautiful face, and even fell into a trance.
She suddenly came back to her senses and squeezed her soft white jade arm hard to wake up a little bit.
Immediately, he reached out to the scroll record next to the crystal coffin and slowly opened it -
"Name: Qiyue Xi..."
