“But this is too dangerous. There are so many dangers outside the imperial mausoleum, and no one knows what the situation is inside. What about those so-called spirits of past demon emperors?” Yan Xuehen shook her head slightly. “Moreover, the demon race’s succession ceremony is such a major event that the demon emperor can’t possibly ignore it. If he does something to the Golden Crow Crown Prince, even if he manages to get out of the imperial mausoleum, he won’t be able to escape the demon emperor’s pursuit…”

At this point, Yan Xuehen paused, suddenly realizing that she was worried about Zu'an's safety and afraid that the other two women would notice something was wrong. She quickly added, "And this will also implicate the snake clan and the elf clan."

Yu Yanluo frowned. Although she didn't really like living among the demons, she didn't want to bring annihilation to the snake clan because of her.

Yun Jianyue rolled her eyes: "Ice Stone Girl, are you stupid? We're just going in, why should we go and deal with the Crown Prince and get involved in their struggle for the throne? Can't we just use the token and clothes provided by the Little Demon Queen to find the Unknown Land?"

Yan Xuehen was dumbfounded, not even caring about the other person's insults: "You can... do this?"

Yu Yanluo also looked at Yun Jianyue with a strange expression, thinking that the leader of the Demonic Sect was indeed unscrupulous, and this move was really... shameless.

But she also acknowledged that this was definitely the most appropriate method.

"Why are you all looking at me like that?" Yun Jianyue said with some dissatisfaction. "Have you all grown up in such a warm environment? Isn't this kind of choice justified? If nothing unexpected happens, the Little Demon Queen will definitely not let Xiao Anzi become any kind of uncle afterward. The first thing she will do is to silence him and use his head to win over the hearts of the Crown Prince's faction."

Zuan couldn't help but exclaim, "Sister Yun, you're so insightful!"

Although he had some vague suspicions, he had a pleasant time with the Little Demon Queen several times. Her gentle words made it difficult for him to feel any ill will, and subconsciously he was unwilling to think about the worst possibility.

None of them were stupid; after her analysis, they immediately understood that this was the most likely outcome.

Yu Yanluo nodded and said, "That's right. Since that's the case, we can't let her use us. We should strike first and take advantage of her."

Zuan was somewhat worried: "However, if the Golden Crow Prince ascends the throne smoothly, I'm afraid he might do something to harm you."

As for Xue'er, that's easier to handle. He can just take her away and go far away. The elves are the royal family, and even if the Golden Crow Prince is dissatisfied, he wouldn't dare to do anything to the elves.

“It’s alright,” Yu Yanluo smiled gently. “Anyway, you’ve already returned to the human race on the surface, so it has nothing to do with our snake race. Besides, the snake race is located in a remote area, and it is also a large race with extremely strong vitality. If he wants to deal with us, he has to consider the impact on other races. At most, he can do something bad in secret. When the time comes, we can just deal with whatever comes our way.”

"Tsk tsk tsk, what a considerate and understanding woman." Yun Jianyue couldn't help but reach out and stroke Yu Yanluo's face. Such a beautiful woman, and so understanding, what man in the world could resist her?

Yan Xuehen was also slightly lost in thought, and for a moment she didn't know what she was thinking.

Back at the snake clan's villa, the group took their final rest.

Zuan originally wanted Yu Yanluo to stay outside to provide backup, since the imperial tomb was too dangerous. But she refused, saying that husband and wife should share hardships and she didn't want to stay in a safe place and watch him go on an adventure.

Zuan couldn't persuade her otherwise, so he had no choice but to agree to let her go together.

Seeing the two embracing each other affectionately, Yan Xuehen left without a word.

Yun Jianyue was also quite unhappy about being forced to eat dog food (a Chinese slang term for witnessing public displays of affection), and left after grumbling.

The imperial mausoleum will not open until tomorrow, before the Golden Crow Prince enters. If you go there now, even with a token, it will be easy to be discovered that something is amiss.

So the group returned to their rooms to rest and prepare for tomorrow's adventure.

Yu Yanluo also had to arrange the reception outside with Xingnu, and even had to explain her last wishes, such as what would happen to the Snake Clan and the Yu Family if she couldn't get out, which made Xingnu unable to stop crying.

Zuan returned to his room, feeling a sense of tension similar to that before the college entrance examination.

Just as it was pointless to study or do practice tests that night, it's equally useless to practice martial arts at this time.

However, Zaun has one last resort to rely on: the rage value system.

I don't know if it's just psychological, but I always feel that single pulls are less lucky, while ten-pulls are more likely to bring good luck.

Therefore, he usually saves up his anger points to draw a lucky charm.

Tomorrow he will enter the imperial mausoleum. Even though he has experienced all kinds of storms, he is still a little unsure this time, so he will try to increase his strength as much as possible.

As usual, he washed his face and hands, then set out the incense burner and other props that had been prepared in advance in the glass bead, and even added several plates to hold various offerings. He prayed to the heavens and the earth before starting to smoke.

I've accumulated quite a bit of anger over this period of time, a total of [amount missing].

Zuan pressed the start lottery button directly. As he watched the various subtitles on the screen flash by, such as "Thank you for participating" and "Congratulations on winning the Spirit Fruit," his excitement was no longer what it used to be.

He was overjoyed when the blinking cursor on the keyboard stopped at the letter "T".

Congratulations on winning the Golden Serpent King's Eye!

"Golden Serpent King's Eye? What is that?" Zuan was a little confused, wondering if it was something similar to Yu Yanluo's Medusa's Eye, and what its effects would be.

He hurriedly checked the skill descriptions:

"Golden Serpent King's Eye Introduction: In a certain time and space, there is a saying that goes, 'The moment the Golden Serpent King sees you for the first time, you are already green with envy.'"
