Looking at the elixir in Gu Yuan's hand, Wang Si's eyes lit up and the hesitation on his face became less.
Gu Yuan smiled inwardly, stuffed all the elixirs and gold coins into his hands, and said, "Alright, hurry up, otherwise if someone comes up from underground and sees you talking to me, you'll be doomed."
Wang Si took the elixir and gold coins and said repeatedly, "Thank you very much, sir! I hope you can keep this secret for me!"
Gu Yuan waved his hand and said, "Alright, alright, got it. Hurry up and lead the way."
"Okay!"
Gu Yuan gave Chi Yuer a look, then followed Wang Si forward.
After winding around for a long time, Wang Si finally stopped.
"Are we there yet?" Gu Yuan asked.
"Sir, do you see the big rock in front?" Wang Si asked, pointing in a direction.
"Huh? I saw it!" Gu Yuan said.
"The entrance to the cave is just behind that big rock, sir. I really can't go any further, otherwise they will find me!" Wang Si pleaded.
"Really? Are you sure you didn't lie to me?" Gu Yuan asked.
"Sir, how dare I lie to you?" Wang Si was terrified.
"Alright then, stand still here and don't move. We'll go check it out. If everything is ok, you can just go. Fish, let's go!"
As he spoke, Gu Yuan pulled Chi Yuer forward, not worrying at all that Wang Si would tell lies.
Even if Wang Si was lying, Gu Yuan had hundreds of ways to keep him.
Slowly approaching the place Wang Si mentioned, Gu Yuan realized that his current location was very hidden.
In front of her, there was a hole on the ground that was as big as two people, surrounded by dense plants.
"How is it? Is it here?" Gu Yuan asked.
"It should be here. I feel a lot of breath coming from below." Chi Yuer said.
"Hehe, I don't think that guy would dare to lie to us."
Gu Yuan waved to Wang Si in the distance, indicating that he could leave.
Wang Si felt relieved and fled into the distance, secretly vowing in his heart to completely stay away from Huoyun Sect and never come back.
"I'll go down first, you follow me!" Gu Yuan was about to jump down, but was stopped by Chi Yuer.
"What's wrong?" Gu Yuan asked with a puzzled look.
"Brother Gu Yuan, please go down after me. We don't know what the situation is here yet, so it's safest for me to go down first."
As she said that, Chi Yuer pushed Gu Yuan away and jumped down.
Landing silently on the ground, Chi Yuer looked around at the surroundings.
Although the entrance to the cave is not very big, once you enter you can find that there is something else going on here.
On the wall, there are three tunnels extending inward.
Chi Yuer's soul power began to spread out, exploring everything here. After confirming that there was no threat to herself, Chi Yuer looked up and signaled to Gu Yuan.
Gu Yuan nodded and jumped down.
"There really is something else going on here. Wow, have you discovered anything?" Gu Yuan asked excitedly.
"Hehe, Brother Gu Yuan, we may have gained something this time!" Chi Yuer said with a smile.
"Oh? It seems like you discovered something. Tell me quickly, what did you discover?" Gu Yuan asked.
"Hehe, I won't tell you yet. When you see it later, you'll know where to come. You'll be very surprised!"
"Hmm? I'm a little curious about what is here!" Gu Yuan said with a smile.
"But there are three tunnels here. Which one should we take?" Gu Yuan was worried and asked Chi Yuer with a frown.
Chi Yu'er pointed to the tunnel closest to him and said, "Take this one. There's no one in the other two tunnels."
"good!"
Gu Yuan sighed in his heart, the Spirit Emperor is really powerful, he can even know this.
"Let's go. The highest level of cultivation inside is just a mere Spirit Master. With me here, nothing here belongs to them!" Chi Yuer said with a smile.
Gu Yuan looked at Chi Yu'er's slightly smiling eyes and laughed too, saying, "Why do I feel like you're a little excited?"
The smile in Chi Yu'er's eyes grew even brighter, and she said, "Brother Gu Yuan, don't you think we're robbing people right now? This is Huoyun Sect's territory, and the people inside should also be from the Huoyun Sect."
"Tsk! How can you call cultivators' affairs robbery? We're here to get a piece of the pie in a fair and square manner, but we have a big appetite and want to keep it all to ourselves!"
Gu Yuan said seriously.
“Puff!”
Chi Yuer burst out laughing, "Brother Gu Yuan is really domineering!"
"Hey, the path of cultivation is extremely difficult. We cultivators cannot just have a good heart. Otherwise, we will only become stepping stones for others. We have to be ruthless when necessary. There is no harm in being domineering in front of resources!" Gu Yuan said lightly.
Chi Yu'er said, "Alright, alright, let's go in. I can only sense strong energy fluctuations deep underground, but for some reason, something seems to be isolating my soul power, making it difficult for me to figure out what's inside."
"Ah? Even your soul power can block the hook? Isn't it possible..." Gu Yuan's expression suddenly changed.
"Brother Gu Yuan, don't panic. Don't worry. This power that can shield my soul doesn't seem to be the work of some external force. Instead, it seems to be something that already exists here. Don't worry, we'll find out once we go in and take a look."
"Who?"
As soon as Chi Yuer finished speaking, someone rushed out from the tunnel and shouted at Gu Yuan and Chi Yuer.
Chi Yuer waved her hand nonchalantly, and the man who came out actually fainted.
"Hmph! You're lucky I spared your life!"
Chi Yuer snorted coldly and pulled Gu Yuan inside.
Although the entrance to the cave is extremely simple, it can be said that there is an underground world inside.
The tunnel was very long, with many twists and turns. Just when Gu Yuan was getting a little confused, Chi Yuer suddenly stopped.
"What's wrong? What happened?" Gu Yuan asked, standing behind Chi Yuer.
"It's okay, I just feel like we should be there soon. I can hear faint voices talking." Chi Yuer said.
"Really? Why didn't I hear it?" Gu Yuan murmured.
"Let's go, Brother Gu Yuan. It's okay. The people inside can't threaten our safety at all. Don't worry."
Since Chi Yuer said so, Gu Yuan certainly felt a lot more relieved, but he did not let his guard down completely. Instead, he was always ready to fight.
"Huh? There's dirt on the ground?"
Gu Yuan suddenly stopped, touched the soil with his finger, looked at it carefully, and said, "This soil still has a fresh smell and moisture. It's obviously just been dug out. Could it be that there is some mineral vein underground that those people are digging for?"
