At this moment, Gu Jueye glanced at Bai Qianmo. The surrounding environment was pitch black, and no one could see his expression.

After a moment of silence, he said, "Our goals are the same, so after the stone gate is opened, whoever obtains the Qi King's Cauldron first will be barred from taking it from the other faction. If you agree, I can cooperate with you."

Yin Heng chuckled and readily agreed.

"good."

Daze used telepathy to transmit the message to Gu Jueye's ears.

“These people are unreliable. Even if we find the Qi King’s Cauldron first, I bet they’ll still shamelessly try to steal it.”

Gu Jueye replied, "I know."

"You knew that, yet you still agreed?"

Knowing full well that the other party is a bunch of untrustworthy wolves and tigers, wouldn't cooperating with them be like doing free favors for them?

"This battle is inevitable. Rather than fighting to the death before even entering the stone gate, it's better to settle things once inside."

Gu Jueye's words immediately calmed Da Ze's restless mood.

Bai Qianmo, however, saw things very clearly.

In the current situation, we have to fight both sides, but the most important thing right now is to open the stone gate. Once the stone gate is opened, whoever gets the Qi King's Cauldron will have to rely on their own abilities.

“Now that we’re allies, there’s no need for anyone to hold back anymore.” Yin Heng winked at his subordinates.

The other person took out a small black wooden box from their backpack.

Yin Heng reached out and took the box, then slowly opened it in front of Gu Jueye and Bai Qianmo.

Inside were a pair of black and white jade pendants shaped like willow leaves.

This is the pair that Jiang Xiaoyu stole from Fifth Brother.

"Where's Jiang Xiaoyu? Where did you take her?"

Faced with Bai Qianmo's questioning, Yin Heng smiled.

"Come with me if you want to see her."

After saying this, Yin Heng walked into the depths of darkness.

His followers glared warily at Gu Jueye, Bai Qianmo, and their group.

"Come with us, the stone gate is just ahead."

The open space on the edge of the cliff is large, but the further you go in, the narrower the passage becomes, and there are obvious marks of blunt tools being used to carve the stone walls on both sides.

Bai Qianmo silently sketched out a topographical map of the Qi King's tomb in her mind.

From the moment they entered the tomb, they went downhill, eventually reaching the main burial chamber and the burial chamber. After that, they went through a door and down a slope.

They are probably 30 to 40 meters below the surface now, and the main burial chamber should be about 10 meters underground.

Therefore, the tomb of the King of Qi should be a trapezoidal structure, becoming wider as you go down, possibly due to the natural formation of the underground area.

After walking for another ten minutes or so with Yin Heng and the others, they passed through a narrow stone passage when a beam of light suddenly appeared ahead.

Upon entering, I discovered that another group of people were waiting there.

Upon seeing this, Bai Qianmo and the others felt a chill in their hearts.

No wonder Yin Heng agreed so readily; it turns out he had the advantage of having the most people around him.

They had over thirty people on their side, while our side, besides the five of them, only had Daze with two underground people, making a total of seven people...

Bai Qianmo thought to herself, if a real fight breaks out, they will be at a huge disadvantage.

Bai Qianmo quietly moved to Gu Jueye's side: "Fifth Brother, do we really want to cooperate with them?"

"Don't worry. Just stick close to me when we go inside."

Seeing that Gu Jueye didn't seem worried, Bai Qianmo felt inexplicably more at ease.

"good!"

At that moment, a small, thin figure emerged from the crowd.

Bai Qianmo recognized her at a glance.

"Jiang Xiaoyu".

She quickly walked up to Jiang Xiaoyu.

Jiang Xiaoyu gave her a bitter smile.

"Qianmo, I'm sorry."

"You still know how to apologize? Forget it, we'll talk about what you did after we get out. What's your situation right now? Did you go with them willingly?"

Jiang Xiaoyu glanced in Yin Heng's direction, her eyes filled with longing.

"Yes, I stayed by his side voluntarily."

he?

Bai Qianmo glanced at Yin Heng. Could it be that Jiang Xiaoyu has fallen in love with Yin Heng?

"Jiang Xiaoyu, do you know who he really is?"

Yin Heng is a treacherous and ruthless dictator who will never fall in love with anyone.

Even if he could never let go of Xu Jin'en in his heart, it was because Xu Jin'en didn't love him, and the man Xu Jin'en loved was precisely the person Yin Heng hated and envied the most.

Bai Qianmo saw through this man very well; Jiang Xiaoyu wouldn't have a good outcome if she stayed by his side.

"Take my advice and stop following him."

Jiang Xiaoyu smiled and said, "Alright, let's not talk about this anymore. Let's get ready to go in."

The bespectacled man in black walked to the stone gate and placed the black and white jade pendant he had prepared beforehand on the circular pattern in the center of the gate.

The design depicts a Bagua diagram, with two distinct grooves on top, and the opposite sides of the shape correspond perfectly to two jade pendants.

Even after the jade pendant was placed on it, the stone gate remained unchanged.

At this moment, Yin Heng turned around and looked at Gu Jueye.

"It's your turn."

Gu Jueye's eyes flickered slightly as he gave Bai Qianmo beside him a deep look.

"Make sure you stay close to me later."

Bai Qianmo nodded. She had a vague feeling that there must be a reason why Fifth Brother repeated this sentence.

Gu Jueye pulled Bai Qianmo toward the stone gate.

Yin Heng's group then surrounded the two of them.

Fang Shu tried to step forward, but Da Ze reached out and pulled him back.

Daze shook his head at him.

Fang Shu understood his meaning, stopped in his tracks, but stared intently at the two people in front of the stone gate.
