Zhou Jie said in disagreement.
Zhou Yuan tapped her forehead with his hand: "Did a donkey kick your brain again? What's going on? You're still thinking about him?"
Zhou Jie playfully stuck out her tongue: "I'm not doing this for myself. Didn't he come here before? We'll take him there; maybe we'll find something unexpected!"
Han Luoxue understood Zhou Jie's meaning, and she felt that Li Xuan should also be brought along.
“Zhou Yuan, I think…” Han Luoxue was about to speak when Zhou Yuan said, “I know what you mean, but I don’t think it’s appropriate. We’re not familiar with that person. Besides, he just said that he didn’t go in at all; he just went into the forest.”
"After going in, he discovered he was poisoned and couldn't even find the entrance to the treasure. The only person we could bring in was the Western Emperor!"
Zhou Jie was stunned for a moment. She tilted her head and thought about it, and felt that what her older brother said actually made a lot of sense.
"Alright, the remaining two spots must be given to the secret guards. I'll go out and make the arrangements now. Tell them to wait outside; we need to go in immediately!"
Zhou Yuan remembered that when they came over, Ouyang Zhen repeatedly emphasized to them that they should go and come back quickly.
They had originally planned to return in a little over a month, but now that month was almost up, they still hadn't seen a trace of the treasure!
Han Luoxue agreed, and Zhou Jie pouted helplessly, "Never mind, let's talk about it when we get back."
When Li Xuan learned that they were going in, he was shocked. He wanted to go with them, but Zhou Jie told him that they had a way to avoid the poison, but they didn't have many antidotes, otherwise they wouldn't have only taken a few people in.
The Western Emperor, on the other hand, looked very excited.
He never imagined that one day he would be able to go back in. As for whether he would be poisoned after going back in, that was not something he should worry about.
Han Luoxue is as shrewd as a monkey; if something were to happen inside, she would absolutely not personally take the risk.
On the other hand, I know some other information, so maybe I can escape from there.
He remembered that his ancestors had recorded that their treasure contained something extraordinary. Although he didn't know exactly what it was, his ancestors said it was something good, so it must be something extraordinary!
The six of them traveled light, and Han Luoxue had stored everything they needed in her spatial storage. Of course, she also left enough food for the people outside, so that if they didn't leave within five days, they could go down the mountain.
Once inside the woods, the atmosphere was similar to the surrounding area, and no one sensed anything amiss.
After traveling for more than a day, the Western Emperor suddenly burst into laughter.
"We're here! We're here! I remember seeing this place mentioned in a book!"
Seeing the Western Emperor's happy expression, the others also breathed a long sigh of relief.
There was a cave ahead, but it was impossible to see what was inside.
Han Luoxue waved her hand, and a tiger ran out from not far away.
Several people trembled with fear. Two bodyguards rushed to the front of the group, and Han Luoxue smiled and said, "It's alright!"
The tiger ran into the cave, and soon the roars of animals could be heard coming from inside.
When the tiger ran out, he was still covered in blood.
Han Luoxue patted his head, relieved to know the blood wasn't on him. The group then proceeded further in, seeing many wolf carcasses along the way.
Han Luoxue felt a little sorry for them. If she had known there were so many wolves here, she should have summoned more tigers. Her tigers must have been exhausted.
The tiger wagged its tail smugly, looking very proud of itself.
Han Luoxue praised her, "You're really amazing!"
She had a few people walk ahead while she followed at the back, silently collecting the wolf carcasses inside into her spatial storage.
This stuff tastes pretty good; I can use it to grill meat when I have the chance in the future.
After walking for an hour, we finally reached the end of the cave.
The Western Emperor looked regretful; he hadn't expected the group to reach the outside of the treasure so easily.
I wonder if our ancestors set up any mechanisms or anything inside.
It would be best to kill all these people, then he could go in and see if he could take anything with him, then take another route, avoiding the crowd outside, and then he would be free.
He has memorized the way he came. Once he gets out, he can contact the other forces and, with his abilities, make a comeback.
Even if Ouyang Zhen found out, so what? The mountains are high and the roads are far. Can he really abandon everything in the capital and come to chase after him alone?
They weren't afraid that their home base would be invaded.
The Western Emperor's idea was good, but unfortunately, Han Luoxue and the others are all alive and well now.
We still need to seize the opportunity to act later, and it would be best to kill all these people.
The Western Emperor lowered his head, his eyes revealing a sinister ruthlessness...
She has never been one to accept her fate.
"How do we open this gate?" Han Luoxue asked coldly, staring at the seamless stone gate.
The Western Emperor said nonchalantly, "I don't know either. You should know that last time I brought people here, we didn't even go inside. We didn't even get to the gate!"
The Western Emperor spoke with a conflicted expression, while Han Luoxue sneered, "Then you guys are really stupid!"
Emperor Xi... you shouldn't attack people like that.
"Did you really think the antidote I gave you last time was real? It only temporarily relieved the poison. If you want to be completely cured, you'd better open this door properly!"
The Western Emperor's face darkened; he knew this woman was definitely not going to say anything nice.
No wonder the detoxification process was so smooth back then.
It turns out it wasn't a real detoxification at all; this woman is too vicious.
The Western Emperor was panting heavily with anger.
Han Luoxue took out a cigarette from her hand and waved it in front of Xihuang:
"Do you know what this is used for?"
The Western Emperor... you can tell at a glance he's no good, but he really doesn't know what he does!
Han Luoxue chuckled lightly: "This is a bit much, it doesn't affect any of us, but you..."
The Western Emperor's heart skipped a beat, but he still found it hard to believe.
As an emperor who had reigned for so long, he knew a lot about poisons, but this was the first time he had encountered one that could be induced by a cigarette.
Seeing that he remained unmoved, Han Luoxue scoffed, "Then why don't you give it a try!"
After a short while, the Western Emperor was rolling around on the ground, feeling as if countless insects were crawling in and out of his head. His head was throbbing so badly that he wished he could smash his head open.
He also pounded his head with his hands, but it still hurt terribly!
"Stop! Give me the antidote! Give me the antidote!"
At this moment, the Western Emperor was no longer the calm and composed man he had been just moments before.
Han Luoxue handed the antidote to the guard, and after taking it, the Western Emperor's complexion finally improved considerably.
"Can we open the door now?"
Reluctantly, the Western Emperor stepped forward, bit his finger, and drew a strange symbol on the door.
Han Luoxue watched calmly. After a while, the door finally opened, and the creaking sound sent chills down one's spine!
"You go in first!"
