The Emperor's Favorite: The Useless and Crazy Concubine Who Conquers the World

Lan Yunyan looked around and found that the layout of the secret room seemed to be in line with the Five Elements.

She had an idea and began to look for the corresponding elements in the secret room according to the order of the five elements.

She first came to the corner where there was a basin of clear water, inserted the sword into the water, muttered something, then found a book with golden words on the bookshelf and placed it next to the clear water.

Then she found a fiery red gem in the southeast corner of the secret room, placed it on the golden book, and placed a wooden stick picked up from the ground next to the gem.

Finally, she scratched a dirt-like mark next to the stick with her foot.

Just as she finished all this, the light array in the secret room suddenly trembled violently, and the light began to flicker. The remaining members of the Baiyin Palace watched this in horror, at a loss as to what to do.

Lan Yunyan seized the opportunity to charge at the light array. She exerted all her strength and stabbed the core of the light array with her sword. With a loud bang, the light array shattered instantly, dissipating into countless points of light in the air.

After breaking through the light array, Lan Yunyan once again cast her gaze towards the Baiyin Palace elder. The elder, having lost his last support, looked at Lan Yunyan with horror.

Lan Yunyan slowly approached him, and every step seemed to step on his heart.

"Your conspiracy will not succeed. The evil deeds of Baiyin Palace will end here today." Lan Yunyan said coldly.

After saying that, she raised her sword and stabbed the elder without hesitation. The elder closed his eyes in despair, waiting for death to come.

As the long sword pierced through, the elder slowly fell down. Seeing that the situation was hopeless, the remaining members of Baiyin Palace dropped their weapons and knelt down to beg for mercy.

Lan Yunyan glanced coldly at the remnants of Baiyin Palace who were kneeling and begging for mercy, without any mercy in her heart.

She knew very well that these people were committing evil deeds and had the blood of innocent people on their hands, so they must not be forgiven easily.

"Do you think you can survive by begging for mercy? Today is your doomsday!" Lan Yunyan's voice was like an ice knife, cutting through the silence of the secret room.

She swung her sword, pointing it at the remnants. The powerful sword energy drew a deep mark on the ground as a warning.

The remaining members of Baiyin Palace looked ashen. They knew very well how powerful Lan Yunyan was, and they also understood that they would not be able to escape death today.

But the instinct of survival still made them beg desperately, and some even kowtowed until blood flowed. The thud of their foreheads hitting the ground echoed in the secret room, sounding particularly miserable.

Lan Yunyan remained unmoved. She slowly walked towards the remaining thugs, each step carrying the aura of death. Just as she was about to strike, suddenly, a slight sound of mechanical movement could be heard from the secret room.

Lan Yunyan stopped in her tracks, her eyes scanning the surroundings. She saw a secret door slowly opening in a corner of the chamber. A chilling aura emanated from the door, as if concealing endless danger.

Lan Yunyan approached the secret door carefully. She looked inside and saw a narrow passage inside. Faint phosphorescent lights flickered on the walls of the passage, illuminating the way forward.

There seemed to be something emitting a faint light at the end of the passage, attracting her to go and find out.

She glanced back at the remaining members of the Baiyin Palace, pondered for a moment, and decided to explore the secret door first. Using her Qinggong skills, she entered the passage silently.

The passage was filled with a foul, nauseating odor. Lan Yunyan held her breath and sped forward.

When she reached the end of the passage, she discovered a smaller secret room. In the center of the room stood a stone platform, upon which sat a box emitting a faint blue light.

Lan Yunyan had a strong premonition in her heart that this box might be closely related to the conspiracy of Baiyin Palace.

She slowly approached the stone platform and carefully examined the box. The box was covered with various strange runes, which exuded mysterious power, making Lan Yunyan afraid to touch it easily.

Just as she was thinking about how to open the box, she suddenly heard footsteps behind her.

Lan Yunyan turned around suddenly and saw that the elder of Baiyin Palace was not dead. He dragged his injured body and walked into the secret room step by step.

There was a crazy smile on his face and a hint of determination in his eyes.

"Lan Yunyan, do you think you can ruin my plan so easily? This box contains the Baiyin Palace's unique secret treasure. As long as I activate it, all of you will die without a burial place!" The elder laughed wildly.

Lan Yunyan was shocked, but she quickly calmed down.

She gripped her sword tightly, stared at the elder, and said, "Do you think I'm afraid of you? Today is the day you die. No matter what you plot, I will not let you succeed!"

The elder snorted coldly, pulled out a jade pendant from his bosom, and muttered something. Suddenly, the jade pendant emitted a ray of light, shooting straight towards the box on the stone platform.

The runes on the box began to flicker under the light, and Lan Yunyan felt that a powerful force was gradually awakening.

She no longer hesitated and used the "Swift Wind Sword Technique", rushing towards the elder like a whirlwind.

The elder hurriedly used his crutch to resist, but he was injured first and was no match for Lan Yunyan.

Lan Yunyan's sword fell on the elder's crutch like raindrops. Each sword carried a powerful force that made the elder's arm numb.

In the fierce battle, Lan Yunyan seized an opportunity and stabbed the elder in the chest. The elder was unable to dodge and was stabbed by the sword, and blood spurted out.

He opened his eyes wide, his face full of disbelief, and slowly fell down.

Lan Yunyan quickly turned and rushed towards the box on the stone platform. At this time, the light on the box was getting stronger and stronger, and she could feel a powerful energy about to burst out.

She concentrated her energy, gathered all the soul power in her body into her hands, and then gripped the box tightly.

She tried to use her inner strength to suppress the energy in the box, but the power of the box was too strong. Her body began to tremble slightly, and sweat soaked her clothes.

Lan Yunyan gritted her teeth and muttered silently in her heart: "I can't fail, I must stop this!"

Just when she felt a little overwhelmed, suddenly, a flash of inspiration came to her mind.
