But, the debt of gratitude is hard to repay in a single word!

Chen Xiu wanted his senior sister to treat him the way she did in his previous life!

"In our previous life, we crawled out of a pile of 100,000 corpses together; our bond transcended even the pain of sharing life and death!"

"But in this life, I can't bear to see you suffer again, and I also want to transcend the bond of sharing life and death!"

"So, I have no choice but to lie to you!"

Chen Xiu thought to himself that these were all well-intentioned lies to his senior sister.

At this moment, the statue of Zhang Tianshi had been rotated 180°, and it was now facing away from everyone.

Chen Xiu lightly leaped and patted the back of the statue.

*Smack!*

A groove appeared on the back of the statue.

Immediately afterwards, another series of rumbling sounds rang out.

The mechanism was triggered, and an entrance with sides measuring one meter slowly opened on the ground.

It was pitch black inside. Through the sunlight, you could vaguely see layers of steps leading downwards, but you had no idea where they led!

"This...is there really a mechanism?"

"The stones on the ground are at least half a meter thick. When you step on them, you can't feel that they're hollow underneath!"

How did he discover that there was a mechanism here?

"I've lived in the Celestial Master's Mansion for ninety-eight years, and I never knew there were such mechanisms here!!"

When Chen Xiu opened the mechanism, all the Taoist priests were stunned. They gathered around the entrance, discussing among themselves.

"Senior Sister!"

Chen Xiu picked up a thick candle from the table and said, "How about I go in with you and take a look?"
