"Some time ago, the news that I was a dragon egg spread, and many people rushed to Dragon Valley, hoping to take me away. Those people in Dragon Valley took me and fled. Unexpectedly, they took me to the Sun Moon Lake area, and then I met you."

"You should know what happens next."

Heidan said a lot, but didn't mention the golden key.

However, Chen Yan had not forgotten this at all. She asked again: "Why can the golden key break your shell?"

Heidan hesitated and refused to say anything.

"Smash it." Chen Yan said expressionlessly.

The Nine-Turn Demon-Suppressing Tower immediately smashed heavily towards the black egg. With a bang, a tiny crack appeared on the surface of the black egg's shell.

"Ahhh!" Heidan screamed and said quickly, "That golden key contains a wisp of Quan Yangqiu's soul. As long as we get it, the entire Imperial Palace can be ours! Including me... wuwuwu..."

Heidan felt sad.

Before Quan Yangqiu died, he placed spiritual marks on all his burial objects. If anyone took his burial objects, not only would that person suffer severe backlash, but the burial objects would also be destroyed.

This is Quan Yangqiu's possessiveness!

The reason why the black egg has not hatched is because of Quan Yangqiu's spiritual imprint. Quan Yangqiu is already dead, so his spiritual imprint carries death energy and covers its body. However, it is incompatible with death energy, so it cannot get rid of the death energy and hatch.

The spiritual imprint left by Quan Yangqiu is extremely powerful.

Even the strongest people at the peak of the Tianpin realm may not be able to wipe it out.

"So that's how it is." Chen Yan suddenly realized.

But there was still one thing she didn't understand. She stared at Heidan with cold eyes: "Why do you frame us again and again?"

The black egg was frightened by Chen Yan's sharp gaze. It trembled and explained weakly, "Because I want to find out your strength and see if you are qualified to enter the Golden Palace."

Chen Yan smiled when she heard this.

The smile was dangerous.

"You are really far-sighted."

"I was wrong, I'm sorry!" Heidan apologized immediately to save his life, but he secretly regretted why he woke up this human first. Now all the information has been extracted by her. If he had known earlier, he would have chosen someone who looked stupider, such as... the red-haired boy.

But, people who are too stupid probably can't accomplish anything great, right?!

Chen Yan stood up and asked the Nine Revolutions Demon Suppression Tower to keep an eye on Heidan, and then went to wake up Jiang Xianyue and the others one by one.

Zhuge Youlin rubbed his eyes vigorously, staring at the golden palace in front of him with ecstasy, and exclaimed: "Wow, wow, wow, there really is a golden palace!"

Jiang Xianyue and others were also shocked by this huge golden palace.

Pei Wusu frowned, feeling quite cautious. He turned to look at Chen Yan and said, "Chen Yan, what's going on?"

Chen Yan told them the news he got from Heidan.

After Wen Yuchu heard the whole story, he looked at Chen Yan thoughtfully and said with a faint smile: "Captain, I didn't expect you to tell us such important news. If it were someone else, they would definitely not tell anyone about the golden key."

Chen Yan said calmly, "We are all on the same team, there is nothing to hide."

Wen Yuchu was stunned and couldn't help but smile.

Is Chen Yan hypocritical? Or is he just too mean?

"That's right, we're all on the same team. There's no point in hiding things!" Zhuge Youlin hummed in agreement, then continued, "Just like the matter of Xiao Zechuan's sister, there's no need to hide it from us."

Xiao Zechuan raised his fox eyes slightly and asked, "If I had told you the truth at that time, would you have helped me?"

"Uh...no." Zhuge Youlin laughed awkwardly twice.

Jiang Xianyue added: "We weren't familiar with each other at that time."

Yu Changying chuckled and teased, "We're a little familiar now, but I won't take the initiative to help you. I really don't want to get involved in other people's messes."

Wen Yuchu also smiled: "I won't do anything that doesn't benefit me."

Chi Yue and Pei Wusu didn't say anything, but it was obvious that they had similar attitudes.

Xiao Zechuan's expression was subtle: "..."

What's the difference between him and bringing shame upon himself?

Xiao Zechuan couldn't help but look at Chen Yan. Chen Yan didn't answer the question directly, but said, "Put on your shoes first."

Xiao Zechuan looked down and saw that one of his feet was exposed, and his toes moved unconsciously.

His whole body froze, and his face suddenly became hot.

Zhuge Youlin and others immediately looked at his feet with different expressions.

“Hahahahahaha…”

Zhuge Youlin scoffed mercilessly, "You're even worse off than me!"

Zhuge Youlin's clothes on the back were torn, but it was not too embarrassing.

But Xiao Zechuan's situation is more embarrassing, especially for someone like him who seems aloof and abstinent. The contrast is too great.

Xiao Zechuan's cheeks flushed slightly. He quickly took out a pair of boots from the storage space, turned his back, and put them on quickly.

Yu Changying raised her eyebrows and smiled: "Brother Zechuan, you look so beautiful when you blush."

Xiao Zechuan coughed a few times to cover up his embarrassment.

Just then—

“…Gulu help…Gulu help!”

There was movement in the coral forest.

Chen Yan and his companions looked in the direction of the sound, and saw a dozen people in white robes and a young man in blue robes suddenly appear in the coral forest. They were at a loss in the water and kept struggling. They had no support and no oxygen.

"This is someone from the Huanglong Sect..." Wen Yuchu narrowed his eyes slightly.

The young man in blue robe held his breath. When he saw Chen Yan and others outside the coral forest, his eyes seemed to light up and he swam towards them quickly using a doggy paddle.
