This is my first time playing the female lead, what's wrong with the tea and snacks?

Upon reaching this conclusion, Li Cangyao was shocked and almost lost control.

This, this...

Judging from her demeanor, she might genuinely prefer women to men. What is her sexual orientation?

What should I do?

At this moment, Li Cangyao was extremely panicked.

Now he not only has to be wary of men, but also of women?

"......"

No, not possible!

How could Qingyi possibly like women? She herself is a girl, how could she have such a sexual orientation?

He must be mentally deficient to have such bizarre thoughts.

Li Cangyao immediately banished the evil thoughts from his mind and calmed himself down.

Qingyi definitely likes men. As long as he sincerely tries his best, he will surely win the heart of the beauty.

Meanwhile, outside, Su Yu looked at Li Cangyao, who seemed to be acting strangely, with suspicion in her eyes.

"What's wrong? You haven't actually fallen for Chenxi, have you?"

"Do you want me to help you?"

Li Cangyao immediately shook his head in denial. "Qingyi, don't talk nonsense. I have no feelings for her whatsoever."

"I... I only have feelings for you..."

He couldn't bring himself to say it; he hesitated, then abruptly stopped.

"What about me? Why are you being so fussy?"

Seeing his hesitant expression, Su Yu couldn't help but frown slightly.

Could this guy be trying to say he likes me?

He could tell that Li Cangyao seemed to want to say this, but it seemed difficult for him to say it.

He would only tacitly acknowledge that affection, but would never admit it outright.

If you really like me... could you please give the jade back to me?

"......"

"Forget it, let's deal with this site first."

Su Yu didn't want to continue this topic; he wanted to find treasures in the ruins so that his strength could increase.

After Su Yu and her companion settled down, the other teams did not make any moves, but simply waited quietly for the ruins' barriers to dissipate.

A day later, the walls of the ruins disappeared.

A large crowd began to frantically pour into the ruins.

"We should go now and see what's so different about the Emperor's Ruins."

Once the three groups of people had entered the ruins, Su Yu immediately reminded Li Cangyao.

The two transformed into two phantom figures and disappeared into the entrance of the ruins.

Less than the time it takes to drink a cup of tea after Su Yu and her companion went inside, Qin Yang also hurriedly arrived at the empty plain.

Underground, there is filth left behind by some of the teams.

Qin Yang's pupils contracted slightly as he looked at the marks on the ground.

"It seems this place has been visited before, quite a few times..."

Qin Yang stared at the ruins that lay prostrate on the earth like an ancient ferocious beast, his thoughts heavy.

The jade pendant seemed to respond to the presence of this relic, suggesting that the contents inside were likely related to his Qin family ancestors.

It could very well contain some kind of powerful legacy.

However, some people have already gotten there first.

He knew without even thinking that those were definitely powerful experts with profound cultivation, far beyond his reach.

Going in alone would most likely result in a terrible outcome.

But the only chance to rise up is right in front of him. Is he really going to give it up?

"......"

After pondering for a moment, Qin Yang hardened his expression and gritted his teeth to make up his mind.

"If you're going to die, you're going to die. It's better to die spectacularly than to live a pathetic life."

"This is my only chance, I must not give up! I must become strong."

Having said that, Qin Yang didn't hesitate any longer and plunged into the ruins...

This is a vast underground palace world.

The moment Su Yu entered the underground palace, she was immediately met with scorching heat; the temperature was high, like the blazing sun shining on her skin.

Su Yu swept through the ruins quickly after entering, afraid of missing any treasures.

Strangely, he didn't see any alchemy rooms or palaces storing rare and precious materials along the way.

The entire journey was filled with desolate scenery.

This is quite puzzling. If it were an archaeological site, there should be some decent treasures left behind, like the Tiansheng site.

Not to mention ruins of emperor-level significance.

"Could the rumor that Xi Chenxi mentioned be true?"

"That day, Emperor Tianyang perished together with the extraterrestrial demon, which is why he didn't have time to lay out his legacy?"

"......"

Just as Su Yu was speculating, Li Cangyao beside her reminded her.

"Qingyi, be careful, there's a sea of ​​fire ahead."

Su Yu looked into the distance and saw a sea of ​​crimson-gold fire blocking the way two hundred meters ahead.

The massive fire raged fiercely, generating terrifyingly high temperatures, and transformed into a celestial barrier that cleaved the underground world in two.

Amidst the sea of ​​fire, the Qingyuan Sect's group was struggling to cross to the other side.

However, the crimson flames contain astonishing energy, a power that even a half-step Celestial Venerable would find extremely difficult to overcome.

Those with lower cultivation levels who entered were instantly incinerated, their severed arms melting into a pool of blood before evaporating into the air.

They were all blocked on the outskirts of the inferno.

"This is a special kind of pure yang fire. Its original level was Emperor-level, and it even had a high probability of reaching the power of a perfect Emperor. However, after the erosion of time, its energy has been reduced to less than one-thousandth of its original power."

Beside Su Yu, Li Cangyao calmly explained.

Although the burning power of this extremely yang flame was strong, it posed no threat to Qingyi, so he didn't take it to heart.

"The Great Emperor Realm at its peak? Then the Heavenly Sun Emperor of that time was at the Great Emperor Realm at its peak?"

A hint of surprise flashed in Su Yu's eyes, along with a touch of joy.

It's good that the Great Emperor has reached perfection. The higher the Heavenly Sun Great Emperor's realm, the more abundant their opportunities will be.

"This sea of ​​fire alone will probably block the way for most people," Su Yu said, shaking her head slightly.

but.

Just as he was about to cross the sea of ​​fire, Lady Scorpion, who was blocked by the fire in the distance, looked gloomy. She decisively summoned a cold humanoid puppet from her spatial ring.

The puppet was surrounded by bone-chilling ice, and even though Su Yu was hundreds of meters away, she could feel the cold on her skin.

The puppet's aura was very powerful, reaching the late stage of the Celestial Venerable realm.

After it appeared, the chilling spiritual energy transformed into ripples that spread into the sea of ​​fire, constantly washing away the immense power of the crimson sun, gradually reducing its heat.

The puppet actually suppressed the power of the entire sea of ​​fire by several tens of percent!

"It's now!"

The crowd was overjoyed at the sight.

They never expected that this viper lady could actually suppress the entire sea of ​​fire!

However, now that the fire has been greatly reduced, they certainly cannot give up such a good opportunity.

The crowd surged towards the other side of the inferno like a tidal wave.

"What a kind person!"

Su Yu was also impressed by the Scorpion Lady's move. He transformed into a streak of light and quickly rushed towards the opposite bank.

After escaping the sea of ​​pure yang fire, the group encountered no further obstacles.

The group arrived at the depths of the ruins without any problems.
