Everyone had no choice. Seeing Ji Xingzhi looking trance-like, they all followed Ji Jiangshen into the cave.

"How could there be a secret passage in the imperial mausoleum?" Xiao Qingyan couldn't help but ask.

Normally, a royal mausoleum can only be entered but not exited, so there shouldn't be any secret passages.

Even if there was such a secret passage, it was only passed down orally by the royal family. Ji Jiangshen rebelled back then, and Emperor Xiao died suddenly, so Ji Jiangshen should not have known about it.

Ji Jiangshen held Xiao Qingyan's hand and walked behind Liu Yang, who volunteered to lead the way.

Although Xiao Qingyan's voice was very soft, it was particularly clear in this almost closed secret passage with an echo.

Ji Jiangshen was silent for a moment, but decided to speak out: "Mo Yan told me. He brought me here before, and he also gave me the key to the imperial mausoleum."

Xiao Moyan is Emperor Xiao's only and most beloved son. It is not surprising that Xiao Moyan knows the secret passage since he has the key.

However, Ji Jiangshen hadn't said anything else. When Xiao Moyan brought him here, he said: Don't let anyone in.

Xiao Moyan told him that this was the core entrance to the Dixi Continent, and the royal ancestors of the Five States Kingdom were originally ordered to guard the entrance.

Once the core area is destroyed, the entire Dixi Continent will fall into chaos.

As for what the chaos was specifically about, Xiao Moyan didn't say, and Ji Jiangshen didn't know either.

But right now, hiding in the secret passage is the only way. Shui Lianche and the woman in red must be trying to find a way to enter the imperial tomb.

He had no other choice.

Ji Xingzhi followed silently behind without saying a word, her brows tightly furrowed. She could feel that this secret passage was not simple, and the feeling it gave people was... very uneasy.

If Bai Xiu and Ran Linyu were here, they would definitely be able to sense that something is unusual here.

This is the passage leading to the center of the Dixi Continent. The passage is filled with demonic energy and spiritual energy.

There are fifty-four continents in the world, and each continent has a center, and there is a seal at the center. These seals are used to seal the demons.

If the seal of the Earth Seal Continent is broken, the seals of other continents will also be affected to varying degrees. If the seal is unstable, demons will inevitably take the opportunity to escape.

The seal was guarded by someone, but after tens of millions of years, the messengers guarding the seal in the Dixi Continent, namely the royal families of the five states, have forgotten their mission.

After countless generations of reproduction, the descendants of the messengers no longer even believe that there are demons in the world.

After all, it has been a long time and no one has seen it with their own eyes. No one would believe such an outrageous thing.

It is said that a long time ago, there was an emperor in Xuezhou who thought there was a treasure at the end of a secret passage, so he led his people into the secret passage, but they never returned.

No one who went to look for the Emperor of Xuezhou ever returned.

After that, no one went in again.

The imperial mausoleum was originally a forbidden place for the royal family, and only the royal family and a few people knew about it, so this matter had never been spread out.

Ji Xingzhi and others didn't know what was going on outside. After walking for a few hours, Ji Xingzhi regained his composure and asked about the cause of Ling Lan's death.

Since Ran Linyu was able to rescue everyone, why did he leave Ling Lan alone?

Zhou Zheng, Wu Fang, Xiao Tong and others all said this...

"Ling Lan came to apologize." Su Cheng said.

Ji Xingzhi was slightly stunned: "Apologize?"

What crime was he apologizing for? The fall of Lizhou City was expected.

However, after listening to the narration of Su Cheng and others, Ji Xingzhi learned that the Shuizhou army had entered the gate of Lizhou City without losing a single soldier.

I also know why everyone was indifferent but looked at Ji Ruhua with such complicated eyes when she died.

"Not long after you left, Shui Lianche began to attack Lizhou City. He only brought more than thirty people with him, but he made it impossible for us to fight back..." Wu Fang said.
