However, this woman was simply a monster...
Seeing that the golden python had admitted it, the Ninth Emperor only walked away from it. She raised her hand, and the sword in her hand disappeared into thin air. She then commanded expressionlessly, âGo away!â
Hearing these words, the golden python immediately turned around and left, not daring to stay any longer.
Perhaps this time, she would let the matter past. However, in the future, she would never dare to do such things.
When the Ninth Emperor turned her head, she found that Zhang Tianwen and the othersâ faces were all pale with a look of horror on their faces.
âWhy are you guys still frozen? This fierce beast has deliberately made up the vision about the strange object hidden here only to trick people to come over. Itâs useless coming here.â
All of them were silent. This time, they had indeed blundered and were fooled by a snake.
Moreover, they had almost died at the hands of this snake.
Perhaps the news that the strange object did not exist made the crowd lose their will to continue, so they turned around, wanting to leave.
The moment they turned around, the whole ground shook fiercely, and there was a crack in the ground, revealing the molten lava below.
It was so hot that it made people panic.
âThereâs a volcano down here?â The Ninth Emperorâs face changed dramatically. âGo!â
Perhaps, it was this sentence that made those present even more frightened. Some of them lost the control to move their feet, and some even peed their pants. All their legs were trembling.
The Ninth Emperor looked at the rolling lava below. She raised her hand fiercely and grabbed Shen Qingluan.
In that instant, she threw Shen Qingluan away, sending her flying into the sky.
âYou go to Feng Mountain and wait for me.â
Shen Qingluanâs eyes widened. The sound of wind followed by that domineering voice made her tears flow, and it tore her heart.
âNinth Emperor!!!â
However, the person in front of her no longer responded to her nor looked at her...
She was high up and could only watch as the ground crack open, and even the ancient fierce beast that had just escaped fell into the pool of lava and was swallowed up by the rolling lava, unable to say its last words.

âWhat the hell is going on here? Why is there a volcano in this desert?â
âAnd this volcano erupted.â
âIâm not greedy for any more treasures. I just want to get out of here now. This place is too dangerous. Not only are there ancient fierce beasts, but thereâs also lava.â
Unfortunately, soon as they said that, the ground beneath their feet crumbled, and they fell into the pool of lava.
The boiling hot magma drowned the heart-breaking wails.
No matter how strong one was or how high oneâs status was in the mainland, when one encountered such a natural disaster, there was nothing one could do but wait quietly for death.
If it were in the past, they could still fly away, but now flying in the air was no longer useful, so they could only wait for their impending death.
The sky glowed red, reflecting the lava. It was as beautiful as the evening sun, but at the cost of countless lives.
The Ninth Emperor took a few steps back, avoiding the crack. She tried several times to rise into the air but fell again.
âSomeone has set up a formation to trap us here.â
The Ninth Emperor frowned. âThe ancient beast is not the real culprit. Perhaps, someone else was using it to destroy us. Thereâs a more powerful person behind it, and that person must have set up this formation...â
