Ye Zichen was right.
When Gu Luolin shouted that they weren't going any further, Ye Zichen sensed that the passageway was real.
However, the passageway was still quite a distance away from them. Thus, they finally arrived at the entrance of the passageway under Gu Luolin's nagging.
"This is the place, right?"
Gu Luolin drooped her head and looked at the entrance, which could only fit three people side by side.
Pure five elements surged towards them. The passageway was like a vent, and all of the five elements in the surroundings came from it.
The surging five elements made Ye Zichen even more certain that Qinglan was talking about this place. Ye Zichen nodded towards Gu Luolin, then walked into the passageway.
"There's nothing special," Gu Luolin muttered.
Beside him, Gu Luolin muttered. When they stepped into the inner part of the tunnel, nothing out of the ordinary happened around them.
It was just like when she was reading ancient texts at home, or the old grandpas that appeared when she was blessed by the heavens, or the strange phenomena of the heavens and the earth. None of that happened here.
"It's definitely here," Ye Zichen firmly believed it.
Ye Zichen, however, was completely convinced. Hanging in the passageway they'd just passed through were the same five paintings that had hung on the walls when they'd first entered.
Ye Zichen had looked at the paintings very carefully, and even remembered the details of the paintings. When he compared them to the paintings in front of him, there was no difference at all.
However, Ye Zichen was rather curious. The paintings were left in the room so that the people who entered the tomb could use the paintings to open up a secret door. Then, why were there similar paintings hanging here …
Could there be another secret door here?
That doesn't seem possible!
Even if there are checkpoints waiting for people, they can't set up the exact same checkpoint as before, right?
All of a sudden, as Ye Zichen and Gu Luolin stared at the paintings, a wave of heat suddenly surged out from the vent of the passageway.
The heat was like the eruption of a volcano, and was about to dry up all the water in one's body.
Ye Zichen quickly set up a barrier in front of them. At that very moment …
"Who are you?"
A voice suddenly sounded out in the passageway. All of a sudden, Ye Zichen was unable to determine the source of the voice. However, Gu Luolin smiled.
That's right!
Nothing strange happened in the passage, which was completely different from the ancient books she had read before.
Now that such an inexplicable voice had suddenly appeared in the passageway, this was the situation that should occur before encountering a fortuitous encounter.
"Senior, we have no intention of entering this place. If we have disturbed Senior, we will leave immediately."
How long has it been?
Gu Luolin had forgotten how long she had been looking forward to this. Ever since she had read those ancient books, she had always thought that she would be able to say something like this one day. According to the normal order in the ancient book, at this time, the old senior would say that they were fated and invite them in for a chat.
Later, the old senior would say that he didn't have long to live, or that this was a remnant of his soul that he had left here.
In short, it was fate that brought them together, so he left the inheritance to them.
After that, there was a period of enlightenment. After receiving the inheritance, one's martial arts would be unrivalled, punishing evil and promoting good …
Perhaps the old senior had an enemy, and when the time came, he would avenge the old senior.
From then on, there was a reign of terror in the martial world.
Everyone would know that she was Gu Luolin. At that time, she would no longer be the Gu Family's Miss who lived in the shadow of her parents. Instead, she would be a hero who would be respected by the world and would be feared by those who heard of her …
That was too wonderful.
Gu Luolin tilted her head and covered her face with her hands. It was clear from her eyes that she was completely immersed in her fantasy.
Unfortunately …
"Oh, oh, you guys entered by mistake, right? Then hurry up and leave. Ol 'Four has a bad temper, if he finds out that you guys barged in recklessly, then he'll teach you a lesson."
The voice from before sounded out once again. It was different from what Gu Luolin had expected. It did not invite them in, and instead asked them to leave.
Gu Luolin's face instantly froze when her fantasy was shattered. She was completely stunned!
"You …"
Ye Zichen glared at her speechlessly, while Gu Luolin also revealed a wronged expression.
"It was clearly written like that in the ancient books. There were people who fell off a cliff and didn't die, and there were also people who coincidentally arrived at some place. At that time, they would say what I said just now, then they would obtain the inheritance and become very amazing. Why did it change when it came to her?"
Hearing that, Ye Zichen slapped his head. This plot was way too familiar, it was a common plot in wuxia novels.
It was clear that this was a girl who was deeply poisoned by wuxia novels. I wonder where she read those novels from?
"My dear grandaunt, that's all made up. Are you taking it seriously?" Ye Zichen shrugged helplessly. At that moment, the voice from the passageway rang out once more. "Why haven't you left yet? I already told you, Ol 'Four has a bad temper."
Ye Zichen took a deep breath, glared at Gu Luolin, and said, "I am this era's Lord of the North Star, Ye Zichen.
"I am this era's Lord of the North Star, Ye Zichen. My era is about to end, and I've come here to seek transcendence."
"Lord of the Emperor Star?"
The voice paused for a moment, then a beam of fiery light appeared before Ye Zichen and Gu Luolin.
When the light dissipated, they saw a child who looked no more than two or three years old. When Ye Zichen saw him, his expression froze. This was none other than the one in the five paintings, the one who'd chased after the butterfly. He was also the "flame" Gu Luolin had mentioned when they'd broken through the secret passageway.
"You're the Emperor Star?"
The child's voice was young and tender. He floated in midair, his eyes locked with Ye Zichen's. His pitch-black eyes scanned Ye Zichen.
"Then why did you say you'd come here by mistake?"
"That girl ran around all over the place when she was young. Her head got squeezed by a door, so she's a bit dumb," said Ye Zichen, pointing at his head.
"Only your head got squeezed by a door." Gu Luolin kicked Ye Zichen's calf, then, right in front of his eyes, she really did something like her head had been squeezed by a door. "What an adorable baby. It'd be great if my mother gave me a little brother."
Gu Luolin gently patted the child's head. Her gaze was doting, as if she wanted to hold him in her arms.
When he saw this, Ye Zichen was dumbfounded. Earlier, Gu Luolin had spouted nonsense and nearly kicked them out of this place. Now, she ….
However, to his surprise, the child didn't struggle at all. Instead, his eyes darted shiftily towards Gu Luolin's chest, tickling her until she giggled.
"He's a little pervert," muttered Ye Zichen to himself, wide-eyed.
Ye Zichen opened his eyes wide and muttered to himself, while Gu Luolin continuously pinched the child's face.
"What's your name? Why are you here? Why don't you come home with me? My family is rich."
"I'm a fire elemental fairy. Go home with you … Okay, okay …"
The Fire Elemental Sprite nodded excitedly. He represented the fire element of the five elements, and the heatwave from before was brought by him. However, he carefully controlled his own heat in Gu Luolin's arms, and obediently lay on Gu Luolin's lap …
Chest!
"Elemental fairy? That means all the fire elemental fairies listen to you?"
"Of course," the fire elemental fairy nodded proudly. The Fire Elemental Elf nodded proudly. Shortly after, he hooked his finger and the surrounding fire elemental particles obeyed his command and gathered towards him.
"Wow, you're amazing!" Gu Luolin giggled, then kissed the elemental fairy's cheek. The eyes of the elemental fairy instantly lit up, then he became excited as if he was on steroids. "This is nothing, I have something even more amazing!"
With a wave of his hand, the surrounding fire elemental fairies instantly turned into a blazing fire dragon.
The fire dragon roared continuously. Even with the barrier, the heat waves still threatened to turn Ye Zichen into jerky. However, the fire elemental fairy didn't seem to care about the life or death of the Emperor Star at all. At that moment, he seemed to be showing off in front of his sweetheart as he continuously manipulated the surrounding fire elemental energy, causing the surrounding temperature to rise. At least, that was what Ye Zichen felt. Gu Luolin, on the other hand, wasn't affected at all by the heat waves.
Invasion.
Ye Zichen was stunned.
He had already guessed that the good fortune left behind here was probably the elemental fairies of the five elements. However, from the looks of it, this little pervert probably wasn't going to leave with him.
"I …"
Ye Zichen couldn't help but curse. I'm the Emperor Star, and I've comprehended the Dao of the Five Elements. I'm the most suitable person to inherit the five elements. F * ck …
This fire elemental fairy seems like it wants to burn me to death!
Fortunately, just as Ye Zichen was about to give up, two bolts of lightning suddenly appeared in the sky, destroying the fire elemental fairy's trick. Then, a hazy drizzle fell from the sky, extinguishing the flames on the ground.
"What are you two doing!?"
The fire elemental fairy roared angrily. His performance had only just begun. He still had a lot of tricks up his sleeves.
"I thought you'd run into some sort of trouble after coming out for so long, but it turns out you're here to pick up girls."
Ye Zichen looked ahead and saw a cold-faced child standing proudly in front of the passageway. Beside him was another child with a lazy look in his eyes, who floated lazily in the air.
"What's your business?"
The fire elemental fairy glared, then waved its hand, causing the fire elemental energy to gather once more.
The floating elemental fairy beckoned with its finger. Immediately, a group of water elemental creatures appeared around the fire elemental fairies.
Water elemental fairies!
The lazy one was a water elemental fairy, while the cold-faced one was a lightning elemental fairy.
"Ol 'Three!"
"Ol 'Four is angry. What are you still playing around for?" Even if he was complaining, the lazy water elemental fairy waved him off. "You have plenty of opportunities to perform, but Ol 'Four is very angry. Don't make me feel like I'm in trouble."
"Hmph." The fire elemental fairy snorted, then looked at Gu Luolin. "Big sis, I'll show you some more in the future. Telling you all this is nothing to me."
