I have already established my power and prestige, so how did Li Shimin come back to life?

What they never expected was that the reality was completely the opposite.

As they walked down step by step, the light around them became brighter and brighter.

At first, they thought they were hallucinating, but when the bright light shone more and more clearly on their faces, they were convinced that it was all real.

When they walked out of the passage and came to an open area, the scene before them made them open their eyes wide instantly and stand still, as if they were cast under a spell.

The place was full of bright lights, with countless exquisite lanterns hanging high above the head, illuminating the entire space like daylight.

The color of the light is golden, soft and warm, giving people a dreamy feeling.

The buildings on both sides of the street are exquisite with carved beams and painted buildings, flying eaves and brackets.

Every detail is carved to perfection and is the work of the world's top craftsmen.

The walls are painted with exquisite murals depicting ancient myths and legends, with lifelike characters.

Pedestrians come and go on the streets, and the shops are bustling with activity, making it a feast for the eyes.

Di Renjie's eyes were as big as copper bells, and his eyes were full of shock.

He never imagined that such a mysterious world was hidden underground in the seemingly ordinary city of Luoyang.

Countless thoughts flashed through his mind rapidly, trying to find a reasonable explanation, but he found none.

Wu Meiniang was also stunned by the scene before her. Her lips trembled slightly, as if she wanted to say something, but her throat was choked by the sudden shock.

Her hands unconsciously covered her mouth, fearing that her exclamation would break the dreamlike atmosphere.

Even Zhang Xuanwei, who was always knowledgeable, was impressed by the scene before him.

He opened his mouth wide with an expression of disbelief on his face. He couldn't help but rub his eyes with his hands, as if he was afraid that he was dreaming.

"This...how is this possible?" Zhang Xuanwei murmured to himself, his voice full of surprise.

At this time, it was noon outside and the sun was shining brightly, but in this underground world, one suddenly felt like they were in a brightly lit night.

Moreover, the brightness here is even brighter than the night in Chang'an. The dazzling lights illuminate every corner clearly, leaving no place to hide.

There are many vendors on the roadside, and the stalls are filled with a variety of goods.

Handicrafts, jade, ceramics, embroidery, etc.

Everything is available.

Fresh fruits and vegetables, delicious food with fragrant aroma.

Those vendors were all ordinary people. They were dressed in simple clothes, with simple smiles on their faces. They were greeting the walking Shadow Secret Guards with laughter and joy.

In their eyes, these Shadow Secret Guards did not seem to be members of some mysterious and scary organization, but rather their neighbors and friends, who got along very well with each other.

Looking around, the entire street was filled with Shadow Secret Guards.

In everyone's previous understanding, the Shadow Secret Guard was just a mysterious organization hidden in the dark. Their number should not be too large, and the scope of their activities must be very limited.

But the scene before them completely overturned their imaginations. Who could have imagined that the area occupied by these Shadow Secret Guards was so vast! They even had a massive underground city! How much manpower and resources would this require?

Looking at Di Renjie, Wu Meiniang and Zhang Xuanwei who were so surprised that their mouths could not close, the sickle official turned around proudly. She was enjoying their shocked expressions at the moment.

"How about it, not bad, right?" The sickle officer's voice was full of pride.

Wu Meiniang finally recovered from her shock. Her lips were still trembling as she stammered, "Sickle...Sickle Officer, how come this place is so spacious?"

Her eyes were full of confusion.

"How was such a marvelous workmanship built?"

She looked around, her eyes full of wonder.

"Did His Majesty establish it?"

When the sickle officer heard Wu Meiniang's question, he realized that there was a mask on her face.

Otherwise, his image would have collapsed by now.

She liked this feeling. Every time she led newcomers into this underground world and looked at their naive appearance, she would feel an inexplicable sense of accomplishment in her heart.

"Yes and no."

The sickle officer deliberately kept the secret.

"If we really want to build this place, it won't be solved by relying solely on manpower and material resources. Moreover, we have to do it without being discovered, which is even more difficult than ascending to heaven."

She raised her head slightly and said slowly, "Since King Wu of Zhou established Luoyi as the capital, Luoyang City has gone through thousands of years of ups and downs."

"The old city during the Han Dynasty sank into the ground due to landslides, and Emperor Wen of the Sui Dynasty later rebuilt a new city on top of it."

"This underground city has always existed underground, but it's little known to the public."

She paused, her eyes showing pride.

"Over the years, ever since the Shadow Secret Guards settled here, Your Majesty has been repairing and reinforcing it, continuously expanding and improving this underground world."

"All the people here are refugees from all over the place. They were displaced for various reasons, and after arriving here, they chose to stay and will never be able to leave again."

"The same is true for the Shadow Secret Guards. Once they enter here, they will be isolated from the outside world."

"Unless the mission requires it."

There was determination in the sickle officer's eyes.

"However, we all firmly believe that when the day comes that our Tang Dynasty is truly stable and prosperous, our secret party will be able to see the light of day again and walk out of this underground world."

Her voice gradually became louder and more confident.

"That day is not far away!"

The sickle official recalled the first time he came here, and what His Majesty and Mr. Qi said to him and what they did to him.

This has become the norm for welcoming newcomers in this underground world.

"So, what's in front of you now is not my Tang Dynasty." She opened her arms.

"Welcome to Dahan!"

Her tone was full of heroism.

Li Yuanfang and Lin Yu did the same, opening their arms wide.

Then the sickle officer shouted.

"Welcome to Dahan!"

Several people looked at the scene in front of them and heard what they said, and their scalps went numb for a moment.

My eyes suddenly became wet.

Among the Chinese nation, there is something called inheritance.

Now, the inheritance is right before your eyes!
