Chapter 876 - No Guards

Bu Yaolian finally realized that this was just a prelude. She didn’t close her eyes the entire night. When she fainted from exhaustion, Su Shenfan woke her up.

She was so tired and weak that she felt like dying. However, Su Shenfan remained refreshed, and seemed to be getting more energetic.

He had to make up for all the times he hadn’t done it in the past twenty years.

The trusted aides standing guard in the hall outside exchanged glances. They had a tacit understanding and didn’t speak.

From time to time, the pitiful pleas of a woman could be heard. That voice was so seductive that it made people feel like she was being bullied.

This was also the first time they had heard Shao Zun’s panting and growling, as well as the dirty words he was spewing out.

Even if they knew that they should go and take a look at a situation on the other side, they didn’t dare remind Shao Zun.

The Rising Clouds Emperor would probably go anyway.

On Xiao Jingyun’s side, he was pretending to be unconscious even though he really wanted to be.

Prince Zi said that he was pretending to be unconscious and had sent two people to guard his palace.

The empress was still serving him on the side. Xiao Jingyun couldn’t afford to lose face in front of his woman, so he simply pretended to be unconscious the entire time, and then fell asleep.

With Shao Zun watching the underground palace, nothing would happen.

In the end, the underground palace that was supposed to be safe had already been breached.

Gu Bailu and the others walked around and found a tall golden door. It was shut tight, and without over a hundred people, it wouldn’t open.

On top of that, their spiritual power had been suppressed.

“There must be something inside.” Gu Bailu was certain.

“There should be a mechanism. Let’s look around,” Feng Qingtian said.

After looking around, they didn’t find anything in their surroundings.

Gu Bailu took out two runes. “Let me see if I can blow them up.”

She took out the golden hairpin from her hair and took off the golden bracelet from her wrist. In the end, she even took off her earrings to set up an array to blow the door open.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

She placed the gold items in different places and created a pentagonal array. There was an explosion, and the great golden door shook, but wasn’t damaged.

“Damn it. It’s useless.” Gu Bailu was disappointed.

“Your Highness, Princess, when I saw the golden door shake, something lit up on the other side,” Ye Qi reported.

“Where?”

Ye Qi pointed at an empty space opposite the golden door. There was obviously nothing there.

“I’ll go and take a look.” Ye Qi flew over after saying that, but didn’t find anything unusual. “Strange, I saw some light here just now. It might be the wrong location.”

“Let’s go and take a look,” Gu Bailu said. “It might be something like an invisible node. We might be able to open the door.”

Gu Bailu was a little excited. She had been impatient in the beginning, but it was now as exciting as hunting treasure. It was like playing a game instance in modern times.

She was part of the pioneering team.

Everyone flew over together. No one knew who stepped on something, but the door opened with two clicks.

Everyone was overjoyed.

Behind the door was a cave. It was full of soil and overgrown with green moss. There was a small lake with a dark surface inside. Above their heads was a hole that had a shimmering layer of water with moonlight passing through it.

That layer of water didn’t come flooding in.

On the opposite side of the small lake was a thick white fog. Above the thick fog, there seemed to be something glowing faintly with a scarlet light.

“My lord, look! Treasure!” Gu Bailu was excited.

“We can’t go over. There’s a barrier. If we touch it, we will all die.” Feng Qingtian grabbed her hand and wouldn’t let her go.
