YanDan knelt on the ground, trying to hide and use her demonic magic to heal her small wounds.

Tang Zhou didn't pity her at all, but instead thought that she grabbed the skull just to scare the poor girl, and repeated his threat of putting her into the artifact again.

It's so unfair how the universe treats YanDan like this.

Tang Zhou stood next to her, saying in a flat tone, "Are you done resting?"

YanDan didn't move from the ground.

Tang Zhou tried saying in a nicer tone, "We should leave now."

YanDan still didn't move at all.

Tang Zhou suddenly grabbed her arm and hoisted her up. YanDan struggled for a moment or two, before realising that she couldn't get away, so she turned around and whispered softly, "We studied in the mountain together, as childhood sweethearts, but now that there are more people around you, are you going to forget our pledge to each other?"

Tang Zhou looked at her, silent. YanDan almost sighed in anger.

He let go, throwing her onto the ground, before turning around and leaving.

YanDan hurriedly stood up. This time she'd done it, she's doomed now.

She was thrown to the ground by Tang Zhou, and her body still ached, so she couldn't help but whisper, "I was just joking, there was no need for you to react that way..." She couldn't wait for the day when she had infinite demonic powers, and then she could chop Tang Zhou into many pieces and bury him alive. After thinking this way for a while, the resentment in her heart lightened a little.

The three people walked in a long tunnel, and then the road in front of them split into two identical roads. YanDan, while the others were busy discussing which road to take, took a good look at the surroundings. No matter which road they take, there was a giant rock hoisted on the top, and once they went into one of the tunnels, the rock would fall, trapping them.

She walked forward a little, only to see that both roads had the giant dragon rock on top.

Tang Zhou looked at her, asking, "Which one would you choose?"

YanDan raised her head to look up, "None, we should just sit down."

"Alright, then we're going to choose the right tunnel, hopefully both tunnels lead to the same place."

"But..."

YanDan sighed, thinking about how glorious she used to be, but now she was being bullied by a mortal.

The tunnel on the right wasn't that deep, and there was a tomb at the end. YanDan already had respect, a tomb like that took a lot of manpower and money to make. But when she saw the scene in the tomb, she couldn't help but exclaim, "It's so elegant!"

Compared to the previous one, the one with the blue glaze on the walls and pearls, one could almost say that the previous tomb was simple. This tomb was completely furnished, with matching tables and chairs, blue and white porcelain tea sets, white pottery vases, and a seven-string guqin, as well as a chessboard on top of the table. There wasn't a shortage of anything there.

Tao Ziqi walked to the table and plucked a string on the guqin, "This guqin is made of paulownia and catalpa wood. The sound is also pleasant, which means the owner must have been really skilled."

Tang Zhou stood by the wall, looking at the ink painting. There was a river filled with smoke and water, with green mountains made by powerful brush strokes. YanDan stared at it intently, "The place of life and death, night by the river of memory, the way of Huangchuan."
