"Motherf * cker!" Partridge Whistle cursed under his breath. Not good!
Just as he was about to retreat a few steps, he heard a strong gust of wind coming straight at the back of his head. Turning his head to take a look, he saw a masked woman dressed in black with a bronze sword in her hand striking at his back. The momentum was so fast that it brought along a sharp whistling sound. In this critical situation, Partridge Whistle couldn't care less about his unsteady feet. He kicked back with both feet and shot backwards like lightning.
The masked lady was none other than Xiao Lin. She saw Partridge Whistle leaped up and flew several 'zhang' away under the low gravity. She also tapped her foot on the ground. Her shadow was like a graceful swan or a swimming dragon, sweeping across the ground. Her right hand shook, as if she would not rest until she took Partridge Whistle's life.
"What a vicious woman!" Partridge Whistle cursed. "We have no enmity with you. Why do you want to take my brother's life?"
Although most of the belongings he carried were made of iron, it wasn't as if he didn't have any iron. Iron was easily corroded, so Partridge Whistle also carried a copper hook that was used to steal the burial items of the tomb owner. Facing Xiao Lin's vicious sword, he didn't retreat. Instead, he moved closer. With a flick of his foot, a white cloth shoe that hadn't been washed for dozens of days flew towards Xiao Lin's face.
Xiao Lin shouted, "Shameless!" She saw the stain on the sole of the shoe and immediately used the bronze sword in her hand to knock it down. In this moment of delay, Partridge Whistle rushed forward with the copper hook in his hand, aiming for Xiao Lin's slender neck. He was going to rip her throat out.
At this time, Chen Yulou, who was at the side, pulled out his hand. Seeing that Partridge Whistle had the upper hand, he didn't immediately go to support him. Instead, he turned back to pull out the gun that was stuck to the magnetic door. Unexpectedly, when he moved his hand, he discovered that the magnetic door was far stronger than he had expected. Not to mention pulling the gun out, he could barely move it.
"In order to resurrect the Dragon Emperor, how many more people do you want to kill?" Xiao Lin said angrily. "Even if I die here, I won't let you have your way!"
When Partridge Whistle heard what she said, he felt depressed and angry at the same time. Anyone who was accused of reviving the First Emperor for no reason, and then was killed without even giving him a chance to defend himself, would be as depressed as he was.
"Are you crazy? My brother and I only came here by accident to escape. Instead, it's you who ambushed in the dark and shouted about killing without asking for the reason! "Chen Yulou shouted fiercely from the side.
"Don't think that I don't know about your shady business. The huge pit that leads to the underground palace was created by you …" Xiao Lin sneered, "You are not as innocent as you claim to be. You have long since planned to excavate the Dragon King's Tomb. The Dragon Emperor is a cruel man. If he and his army come to this world, they will bring disaster to the world. "
While they were talking, Xiao Lin and Partridge Whistle exchanged dozens of moves. Even though Xiao Lin's weapon had the upper hand, she had lived for thousands of years in vain. She claimed that she was preparing to stop Emperor Shihuang's resurrection, but her moves were sloppy and ordinary. She did not look like someone who had painstakingly trained in martial arts for thousands of years. On the other hand, Partridge Whistle was able to come and go in the wind and rain. His skills were exquisite and he managed to gain the upper hand.
After suffering a loss, Xiao Lin knew that she could not take down the person in front of her. If she waited for his other companion to come and attack her, she would be in danger.
She wanted to ease the tension between them. She took advantage of the gap between the two to withdraw her sword and retreat. She said in a low voice, "If you are not the tyrant's lackeys, do not go near this hall. This is the tyrant's burial place. Two thousand years ago, the tyrant was cursed and sealed. His remaining subordinates buried him in the underground palace of Mount Li that he had built before his death."
"He's built another fake tomb outside, trying to deceive everyone and deceive us who are guarding the seal."
"Whoever dares to take a step near this hall, I will fight him to the death!" Xiao Lin shouted.
Chen Yulou had already thought of a way to break off Partridge Whistle's gun. He raised it and sneered. "Good! I heard that before the First Emperor died, he buried the Elixir of Immortality in the First Emperor's tomb. Partridge Whistle's brother tribe has been cursed for hundreds of generations. Its antidote may be in this hall. We must get it. Since you have so much backbone, then please die! "
Xiao Lin had never thought that there would be such a development. He immediately changed the topic and said, "If you want to steal the Dragon Emperor's treasures, then all the more you can't let the Dragon Emperor revive. Otherwise, after he kills me, he will definitely not let off the thieves who trespassed into his mausoleum, which is only the two of you, not to mention the people who stole the Immortal Medicine that he had painstakingly sought."
"If you want to get those treasures, the only way is to kill him with me!"
At this time, Xiao Lin did not mention the 'fight to the death' issue anymore. Instead, she gave a very constructive suggestion. Partridge Whistle and Chen Yulou then understood that this woman had also just arrived not too long ago. She had found this floating heavenly palace before them. As for the things inside, she did not know much more than the two of them. The three of them discussed for a while and decided to temporarily stop fighting. They would explore the heavenly palace together.
They pushed open the door. Although there was no day in the underground palace, and there was always a pearl above their heads that simulated the orbit of the stars, the mermaid paste lamp that led to this place shone brightly. With the reflection of the golden bricks and jade tiles, the whole palace was not dark.
As soon as they stepped over the red threshold of the door, they saw two rows of bronze statues on both sides of the door. The slender divine tigers in the style of the pre-Qin dynasty held their bronze heads high. Their dignified faces were vivid and lifelike. They stood on the stone platform on both sides. Below them, there were bronze statues of phoenixes, qilins, divine dragons, baizhe, zhous, elephants, and other strange beasts.
This palace door was the middle door, and the bronze beasts were arranged on a small platform. There was a flight of stairs that led to the palace from the real building. The flight of stairs was divided into two sides, and in the middle was a smooth relief sculpture. On it were the images of celestial islands and celestials, as well as celestial birds and strange beasts, as well as all kinds of auspicious signs. The three of them walked up the stairs, and when they were about to reach the end, the relief sculpture showed the scene of Emperor Shihuang sitting high above the celestial palace, ruling over his subjects, and embracing the world.
Partridge Whistle said in a low voice, "It seems that the First Emperor really did not want to die. After his death, he still had the ambition to rule the world, build the Heavenly Court, and become the Emperor Of Heaven. He had everything!"
Xiao Lin sneered and said disdainfully, "He is delusional. His evil ambition will never succeed!"
