Lan Xiaoni stared at the excited An Lin with a dumbstruck expression on her face.
An Lin didn't waste any more time with words. In any case, he wouldn't be able to tell what was going on.
Divine Inspection Technique!
Information regarding the golden key began to appear in his mind.
[One golden key: The key that can open the captain's core cabin.]
An Lin's expression faltered upon hearing this.
The key to the captain's core cabin? Wasn't the captain the Star Dancer?
He had thought that this was a key to a treasure trove, but he was told that this was the key to the Star Dancer's boudoir?
An Lin was very angry. He felt like his dreams had been shattered.
The Star Dancer's boudoir was useless to him! He was a man who was constantly advancing in pursuit of his dreams and treasures! How could he waste time on something as boring as this?
This key was completely useless to him!
An Lin immediately turned to leave.
"Big Boss An Lin, where are we going now?" Lan Xiaoni immediately followed along.
An Lin replied with a solemn expression, "To the captain's core cabin!"
Theoretically speaking, the battleship's control room and the captain's core cabin weren't too far apart. This was the core area of the battleship.
They didn't have a specific direction anyway, so they could only wander around aimlessly.
Thankfully, this battleship had been in disrepair for many years, so even though there was no energy to maintain normal operations, most of the doors could still be opened by Lan Xiaoni with her bloodline power.
That's right, the Starfire Battleship acknowledged the descendants of the Spirit Fish Clan even though it was ownerless.
Lan Xiaoni felt a sense of accomplishment upon seeing that even Big Boss An Lin was relying on her at a time like this.
They passed through over a hundred gates constructed from special alloys before finally arriving at a very special gate. The gate was semi-circular, and it looked like a black curtain of stars, striking one with the feeling that they were about to sink into the curtain of stars.
What delighted An Lin the most was that there was a row of peculiar ancient text at the top of the gate, as well as two fans.
He didn't understand ancient text, but he knew what fans were. Those were the Star Dancer's fans!
"Could this be the Star Dancer's boudoir?" An Lin was extremely excited.
Lan Xiaoni rolled her eyes at An Lin before turning to the ancient text and nodding. "That should be the case. The ancient text of the Spirit Fish Clan probably represents the astrologer who dances in the starry sky."
As she spoke, she placed her hands in front of the door as usual, and the power of her bloodline surged out.
In the end, the tried-and-true method of opening the door didn't work.
Lan Xiaoni was a little embarrassed.
A smug smile appeared on An Lin's face. "A door that even you can't open must require a very high level of authority. Looks like this is the Star Dancer's core cabin. At times like this, we still have to rely on this thing. "
He took out the golden key and inserted it into the gap next to the door!
The door opened, but the way it opened was a little peculiar. A gargantuan mouth suddenly extended from the screen of stars before swallowing An Lin and Lan Xiaoni!
An Lin was shocked.
Lan Xiaoni screamed.
The two of them didn't even get a chance to unleash their emotions before they crashed heavily to the ground.
An Lin raised his head and was greeted by the sight of an extremely antiquated house.
There was a bluestone floor, a red carved table, and a painting on the wall.
Outside the carved wooden windows, a vast expanse of starry sky could be seen.
There seemed to be a figure sitting on the bed that was surrounded by a light blue curtain.
An Lin and Lan Xiaoni's nerves tightened at the same time.
"Don't do anything, let me do it!" An Lin spoke with excitement.
He pulled out his Evil-Slaying Sword and sliced through the blue curtain.
As the curtain slowly drifted down, a beautiful woman sat silently on the edge of the bed. Her eyes were closed, and there was no trace of vitality in her as her fishtail dangled to the ground.
In comparison to death, she looked more like a beautiful woman taking a nap.
Time had passed for countless years, but it didn't leave a single mark on her body.
"Is this the Star Dancer's body? She looks even more beautiful than when she was fighting! "An Lin couldn't help but praise.
Lan Xiaoni reminded him with a serious expression, "Big Boss An Lin, did you come here to admire a corpse? Don't forget what you're here for! "
"I'm here for what I'm here for! Look at this Star Dancer! She died in a sitting position, and she looks so peaceful too! This is so strange! Isn't this worthy of our research? "An Lin retorted.
Lan Xiaoni pouted angrily as she knew she couldn't win an argument against him.
An Lin made his way over to the Star Dancer's body and carefully inspected it. He couldn't help but poke a finger at the Star Dancer's delicate cheek to find that it was a little cold, but not hard …
"Her body is very intact. It looks like she was inflicted with some kind of extremely powerful curse technique, which is why she died." An Lin analyzed.
Low-level curses targeted the body, high-level curses targeted the consciousness, and top-level curses targeted karma and fate … For example, I can curse you to be unlucky for the rest of your life. This is actually a top-level curse technique that can affect the fate of a living being. It's untraceable and extremely difficult to dispel.
An Lin couldn't tell how the Star Dancer had died, so he could only attribute her death to a curse technique.
"To be able to curse a mighty figure at the Return to Void Pinnacle Stage, the culprit must be at least at the Dao Integration Stage, right?" Lan Xiaoni was a little nervous.
An Lin nodded. "The Star Dancer also has the Starfire Battleship, so normal Dao Integration Stage mighty figures might not be able to do anything to her. The culprit must be a powerful being of the Dao Integration Stage at the very least. It's just that … if they really wanted to kill the Star Dancer, wouldn't it be much easier for them to just fight her?
"Look at the situation now, the curse technique wasn't completely successful. The Star Dancer was still able to split up a portion of her power to stay behind on the battleship and bully us with glee. "
An Lin was clearly a little resentful toward this.
Lan Xiaoni suddenly had a bold thought in response to An Lin's question. "It's not impossible. If the culprit didn't even take the Star Dancer seriously, then wouldn't it make sense that they could just throw a curse technique at her?"
An Lin: "… Then how bad * ss would they have to be?"
"Probably as bad * ss as Big Boss An Lin, who's at the Return to Void Stage?" Lan Xiaoni speculated with a serious expression.
"What kind of bullsh * t are you talking about?!" An Lin was quite elated.
He was very pleased that his underling had a good eye for detail.
As for the living being that had killed the Star Dancer, they didn't know who it was, but they had a feeling that it wasn't the Ancient Heavenly Fiendcelestial. If the Ancient Heavenly Fiendcelestial really was that bad * ss, then it wouldn't have been slain by the two High Priests.
An Lin searched the Star Dancer's body again to find that it was cold and soft. Hmm, that wasn't the point. He just wanted to see if there were any treasures.
It was a pity that this mighty figure at the Return to Void Pinnacle Stage didn't have a single treasure on her.
In the end, Lan Xiaoni stowed the Star Dancer's body into her storage ring.
Even though they were enemies, the Star Dancer was a top-rate mighty figure of the Spirit Fish Clan who had sacrificed herself to protect the clan. If she could return to the Sea Heart Palace, she was going to give this mighty figure a proper burial.
The two of them refused to give up, and they continued to rummage through the room, feeling like there was something good waiting for them.
They had finally found the golden key, so they couldn't just end up with a beautiful corpse, right? That was way too tragic!
After a long and arduous search, the two of them finally found a rather special item.
