I want to protect my family, but you force me to take the lead

"Qin Girl"

"Master Qin"

Qin Nuan looked in the direction of the voice and saw the four elders of Xiaoshan and Bai Yichen rushing towards them.

"Nuan girl, are you okay?" the elder asked with concern.

Qin Nuan shook her head. "I'm fine, but now that Mi Xi is dead, they will definitely not let it go."

"What are you afraid of? We are all here." The two elders clenched their fists, looking angry.

Bai Yichen walked to Qin Nuan and said, "Master Qin, what should we do next?"

Qin Nuan pondered for a moment, "We can't just sit there and wait for death. We must take the initiative. Let's first find out what Mi Zhuang's plan is."

After everyone looked at each other, they nodded in agreement with this idea.

At this moment, Qin Yu came running over in a hurry, panting and saying, "Master, there is a passage in the ancestral hall of Mi Zhuang. Qin Mo has already gone down to take a look, and there is actually an underground city underneath."

"Underground city?! What are we waiting for? Let's go and take a look together." Qin Nuan led everyone to follow Qin Yu without hesitation and rushed towards the ancestral hall of Mi Zhuang...

........

"Nuannuan, are you okay?" Guo Qiusa, who had just walked a few steps and hurried back after receiving the news, couldn't wait to ask Qin Nuan with concern when he saw her.

"Uncle Master, I'm fine. How are things going over there?" Qin Nuan replied quickly.

"Everything has been done, but we found out that someone among the Dragon Guardians has betrayed the Dragon. When I realized something was wrong, I immediately rushed back. Halfway through the journey, I received your message. You almost scared me to death right there." Guo Qiusa said with lingering fear.

"Uncle-master, it's better to come back at the right time than to come back early! There is actually a huge and intricate underground city hidden under Mi Zhuang! Come on, let's go and take a look!" Qin Nuan said excitedly.

"What? An underground city?" Guo Qiusa was extremely surprised, but after seeing Qin Nuan nod affirmatively, he temporarily put aside the information he had just found out about Bai Yichen and decided to follow Qin Nuan and the others to find out what was going on...

"Master, Island Master Guo..." Qin Shu hurriedly greeted Qin Nuan and his group when he saw them coming.

"Qin Shu, what's the situation underground? Did Qin Mo go down alone?" Qin Nuan asked worriedly.

"No, Sa Si and Sa Wu went down with Qin Mo."

Hearing this, Guo Qiusa and Qin Nuan breathed a sigh of relief, but still felt a little uneasy.

After pondering for a moment, Qin Nuan made a decision: "Qin Yu and Qin Shu stay here, just in case. Let's go down and take a look."

"Okay!" Everyone responded in unison, and then followed Guo Qiusa into the passage leading to the underground city.

Going down the passage, a stale smell hit my nose.

The sight before me was breathtaking, as a huge and intricate underground city appeared before my eyes.

The passage twists and turns, seemingly without end.

A faint light flickered on the wall, barely illuminating the way forward. With every step, I could feel the ground shaking, as if the entire city was breathing.

In this maze, Qin Nuan and others moved carefully, their hearts full of curiosity.

Suddenly, a low roar was heard, which made people feel creepy.

Qin Nuan and the others looked at each other, quickened their pace, and quickly looked for the source of the sound.

Finally, we arrived at a spacious hall.

In the center of the hall, Mi Lei and the Lin family were sitting together, their faces revealing a hint of cunning and betrayal.

Qin Nuan raised his hand and threw out a protective barrier to cover himself and his group, and then observed them quietly, trying to find out why they betrayed the dragon.

Under the dual protection of mental power and the system, Qin Nuan heard their plan clearly.

Also understood everything.

It turns out that in order to pursue greater power, Mi Lei and the Lin family colluded with the ambitious American forces, attempting to merge the essence and blood of the dragon and obtain the magical power of the dragon.

In fact, their ultimate goal is immortality.

Qin Nuan thought to herself, "Xiao Xiao, could it be that the blood of the divine dragon really has the effect of making people immortal?"

Qin Xiaoxiao shook her head and replied, "How is that possible? Sister, the dragon's blood contains only a trace of dragon power, but there is no mention of immortality."

Hearing this, Qin Nuan's eyes instantly turned cold, and she said in a deep voice: "If that's the case, then as the guardians of the dragon, the Mi and Lin families really don't know anything about this? It seems that in the end, it's still the greed in human nature that's at work..."

After careful consideration, Qin Nuan discovered that the conspiracy plan of these two people was so meticulous and their thoughts were so deep that it was simply creepy.

At the same time, the few people who came with Qin Nuan all exuded a strong murderous aura, and they wished they could tear those who were plotting and discussing into pieces immediately.

Suddenly, Qin Nuan lowered her voice and asked the others, "Have you seen Sa Si and the other three?"

Everyone looked around and thought about it, and indeed did not see Sa Si and the others.

"Oh no, they might be in danger." Qin Nuan frowned, and had a bad feeling in her heart...

"We have to find them quickly." Guo Qiusa said anxiously.

Qin Nuan nodded, turned her head to look at the people who were still discussing, gritted her teeth, and led a few people to retreat carefully and continue exploring...

Along the way, they encountered various traps, but they were all cracked one by one.

Finally, they found Sa Si, dying, at a corner.

"Sa Si, where are Sa Wu and Qin Mo?" Qin Nuan helped Sa Si up.

Sa Si raised his hand with difficulty, pointed in a direction, and then fainted.

Qin Nuan and Guo Qiusa looked at each other, and the ominous premonition in their hearts became stronger. They said something to the four elders, and they and Bai Yichen hurriedly ran in the direction that Qiusa pointed.

The three rushed to the place pointed by Sa Si, only to see blood and traces of fighting all over the ground. Qin Mo and Sa Wu were nowhere to be seen.

"What's going on?" Guo Qiusa looked solemn.

Bai Yichen squatted down and carefully examined the bloodstains. "It looks like a fierce battle..."

Suddenly, a breeze blew, bringing a hint of strange smell.

Qin Nuan raised her head alertly and saw a black shadow flash by.

"Who?" Qin Nuan shouted loudly.

The shadow did not respond and quickly disappeared.

Qin Nuan's heart tightened, and he said in a deep voice: "It is not advisable to stay here for long. Let's take Sa Si out first, and then make plans."

Guo Qiusa nodded, walked back quickly, carried Sa Si on his back, and headed towards the exit.

Along the way, the atmosphere was extremely tense, as if a pair of eyes were secretly watching their every move...
