Having the genes of a demon king, I never intended to be a kept man.

Ye Ge didn't tell her what she had left behind.

"this is for you."

Ye Ge tossed a bottle of medicine to Nangong Ru.

Nangong Ru caught it: "What is this?"

Night Song: "The latest version of the life recovery potion that Yu Li prepared is not yet available in the Deep Blue Mall. Let you try it first. It can even repair internal injuries caused by Saint Realm experts."

"Hmm..." Nangong Ru lowered her head, looking at the potion in her hand, and remained silent for a moment: "Thank you for what happened just now."

Thinking about her past attitude towards Ye Ge, she suddenly felt ashamed.

A simple thank you seems too simple, but she couldn't think of a way to express her gratitude or how to repay the favor.

After all, that's just her personality—somewhat aloof, somewhat solitary, and a little unapproachable. As the Chief of the Night Watch, she always handles things strictly by the book... but now she owes someone a favor, and she's a bit at a loss for what to do...

"No need for formalities." Ye Ge didn't care at all. He looked up at the moon and narrowed his eyes slightly.

At this point, those guys should be about to enter the [Extreme Yin - Azure Dragon] instance.

Ye Ge thought to herself: 'Judging from the number of red dots converging on the imperial mausoleum on the dark blue map, it seems quite a few people know tonight is an extremely yin night...'

'These people clearly want to take advantage of the weakening of the Azure Dragon's power during the extremely yin moon to dig up its remains.'

But what Ye Ge found strange was where these people got their information from?

The fact that all races knew the Azure Dragon's remains were buried in the late emperor's mausoleum was clearly leaked intentionally by someone.

Here we go again...

Clearly, someone is quietly pushing something behind the scenes.

Ye Ge thought to himself, "This time I'm determined to get to the bottom of this."

Who exactly is behind this?

"Director Nangong, you should go home and get some rest."

Ye Ge gazed at the extremely dark moon in the night sky and said calmly, "With the life potion I gave you, your injuries should be healed by tomorrow morning. I have something to attend to, so I'll be leaving now."

After saying that, Ye Ge's figure turned into a cloud of black mist and left.

Nangong Ru opened her mouth slightly, as if she wanted to say something.

But Night Song is gone.

'strangeness......'

Why does he look so rushed?

Nangong Ru was puzzled.

"Shuashuashua——"

At that moment, Nangong Ru suddenly saw several extremely fast black shadows leaping and flashing past from the nearby rooftops.

'Who are those people?'

Nangong Ru frowned.

That direction... seems to be the mausoleum of the late emperor?

Were they there to follow Ye Ge?

After pondering for a while, Nangong Ru looked at the silver elves not far behind her.

"It's already very late. If you have enemies among the myriad races, it's best not to wander around. Go back to the hotel where the guests of the myriad races are staying."

After Nangong Ru finished speaking, she also leaped onto the roof and nimbly followed the dark figures.

"Princess, are you alright?" the silver elf elder asked cautiously.

"...I'm fine." Yinsha wiped the blood from the corner of her mouth and slowly stood up from the ground.

Looking in the direction where Ye Ge and Nangong Ru had left, his expression was complicated.

......

"Whoosh-"

"Whoosh-"

"Whoosh-"

Three dark figures landed in the grass outside the imperial mausoleum.

"Lord Muramasa, I feel something is strange."

The one-eyed Sunwheel warrior said solemnly, "This is the mausoleum of the First Emperor of the Human Race, and also the place where the Azure Dragon's remains are buried. According to the intelligence we have gathered beforehand, the defense force here should be the most heavily guarded in the entire capital city."

"But we've been infiltrating for so long and haven't seen a single guard, neither visible nor hidden sentries. It's really strange."

"Do you think there might be a scam?"

Another middle-aged samurai from the Sun Wheel Clan looked around and said, "I also think there must be a trap here! Lord Muramasa, should we observe further?"

The village chief remained expressionless: "Even if there's a trap, does that mean we're just not going in?"

Middle-aged samurai: "This..."

"The Yin Moon only lasts for five hours, which means it can only suppress the Azure Dragon's power for five hours," Muramasa said. "What would happen if we failed to obtain the Azure Dragon's remains by the time it was up, or if we were still trapped in the Azure Dragon's underground palace by the time it was up?"

The one-eyed man was drenched in cold sweat.

If Qinglong's consciousness awakens while they are still in the underground palace...

Without a doubt, they will all die!

No matter what, it was a legendary ancient sacred beast, a being whose power could rival that of the gods!

Even the strongest Soul Emperors among these creatures are like ants in front of them!

"Then what do we do?" the one-eyed man asked.

“Among humans, there is a famous story called the Empty City Stratagem.” Muramasa stood up directly from the bushes: “Since there are no guards, let’s just go in.”

Soon, the three of them entered the imperial mausoleum.

We arrived at the bronze stone gate of the underground palace.

"Lord Muramasa, there really is no one here, and no traps at all. They really are staging an empty city ruse!"

"Um......"

"Is this the entrance to the imperial mausoleum's underground palace?"

The one-eyed dragon looked up and saw the azure dragon carved on the stone gate, as well as the seven stars on the azure dragon's body that represented the seven constellations of the Azure Dragon.

How do I open it?

"Get out of the way."

"Yes!"

The one-eyed man stepped aside.

The gloomy-faced boy drew his katana from his waist, held it with both hands, and slowly raised it above his head.

"Fourth-tier martial skill - Sun Wheel Slash!"

hum-

A streak of crimson light slashed diagonally.

A faint, blood-red line appeared on the bronze stone gate of the imperial mausoleum.

Then the long line gradually spread outwards, and countless cracks appeared.

"boom!"

The entire bronze stone door suddenly shattered and broke apart.

Muramasa's gloomy eyes narrowed slightly.

Although the stone door was broken, there was a black barrier behind it that rippled with waves.

When Ye Ge and Yan Ji came here before, even if they forcibly opened the underground palace, they didn't see this wall.

Clearly, that is the Gate of Extreme Yin in the Underworld, which only appears on extremely Yin nights!

"Let's go."

Without any hesitation, Muramasa sheathed his katana and went inside first.

Ripples spread across the barrier wall as Muramasa's hand disappeared into it, as if it had disappeared into water.

He paused for a few seconds, then without hesitation, stepped smoothly into the barrier.

Seeing this, the two Sunwheel Clan warriors swallowed hard and followed them inside...
