Xiao Lan clenched his fist. He tried his best to control his voice against Anya's, so that he wouldn't appear to be gnashing his teeth. "You're just not leaving, aren't you?"

Anya's eyes gradually carried the determination to face death as she said, "I'm not leaving. Unless I obtain the Profound Spirit Bead, I'd rather die here."

"You!" Xiao Lan practically clenched his fingers until they were about to shatter!

The two of them stared at each other, neither giving in to the other!

Half a minute later, it was still Xiao Lan who came to a compromise. I'll go get the Profound Spirit Bead. Wait for me here, once you get the Profound Spirit Bead, we'll leave immediately. "

"No!" Anya directly refused and quickly took a step forward. This step almost caused Anya to pass out from the pain. She endured the great pain and firmly said, "I'll go with you. It's even more dangerous inside."

Xiao Lan's sharp gaze descended onto the crossbow that had completely penetrated Anya's shoulder. "You?" Forget it, they'll be dragging me down. Wait for me here. "

After she finished speaking, Xiao Lan quickly walked toward the tomb door without any hesitation.

"Xiao Lan …" "Xiao Lan …"

Even when Anya called out to Xiao Lan in a low voice, she didn't turn her head back in the slightest.

Xiao Lan, who had once again arrived in front of the tomb door, concentrated all her strength to sweep the area around the tomb door, not letting go of even the slightest of oddities.

Half an hour later, Xiao Lan finally found a piece of rock that shouldn't have bulged on the right side of the tomb door.

Xiao Lan placed his finger on the stone button and took a deep breath. If he were to gamble, everything would be fine. But no matter what, she would die here together with Anya!

Xiao Lan slowly turned around and glanced at Anya's location before pressing down on the stone button with a submissive attitude! Within a few seconds after Shi Yu pressed down the button, the tomb was completely silent without a single echo. Xiao Lan's entire body was tense as he stood motionless on the spot. Could it be that it wasn't this?

Just as the suspicions in Xiao Lan's heart were raised, a deafening "boom" resounded through the air. The entire tomb door shook for a moment before the massive entrance slowly opened.

Xiao Lan couldn't help but hold her breath as she looked at the open tomb door. She had thought that she would definitely die when she heard that voice just now. She hadn't expected that it would be hidden!

After the tomb door was completely opened, Xiao Lan cautiously walked in under the light of the lamp.

The moment Xiao Lan stepped into the main tomb, the lights within the main tomb that had been silent for thousands of years suddenly lit up.

Xiao Lan stood on the spot and looked at the candlestick which seemed to have just been lit by someone.

Was the scene in front of her eyes an illusion or did it mean that she had met a ghost!

She did not believe that this toy from several thousand years ago could ignite its own flame. It was not a voice-activated item!

Xiao Lan didn't know how long she stood there, and only regained her senses when she heard Anya's voice.

"Xiao Lan, what are you doing? Quickly go get the Profound Spirit Bead."

Xiao Lan looked behind him at Anya's voice. At this moment, Anya was holding onto the tomb's wall as she stood in front of the tomb's entrance. Because of her movements, her wounds were bleeding crazily.

Xiao Lan fiercely frowned. "Why are you here!"

Anya's face was pale. "I'm worried about you."

Xiao Lan's face sank, but he was incomparably anxious in his heart. "Don't move from where you're standing, I'll go get the Profound Spirit Pearl right now."

Xiao Lan turned her head and glanced around the tomb chamber. She did not care about all the coffins and directly went to the tomb master.

It had to be said that the main tomb was constructed in splendor and honor. It was made from gold and silver, had jade steps, and had a seven-colored glazed roof. Even the frescoes on the walls seemed newly painted.

In a few steps, he arrived before the coffin. This coffin was extremely tall, deep, and wide. There were actually carvings of a four-clawed Golden Dragon with Spiritual Beads on top of the lacquered red wood of the coffin.

Xiao Lan's eyes couldn't help but narrow. It seemed that the person lying inside had an extremely prestigious status when he was alive.

Xiao Lan's hand lightly patted the coffin twice. His employer had said that the Profound Spirit Pearl that he wanted was inside the tomb master's coffin. If he wanted to obtain the Profound Spirit Pearl, he must pry open the coffin.

However, this coffin was simply too huge. To open it, one would really need a bit of strength.

Fortunately, Xiao Lan had already prepared a tool to automatically retract the rope. Xiao Lan then took out the tool, along with the steel rope that she had prepared.

Then, she wrapped the steel rope around a solid stone pillar, pressed the switch, and activated it. The steel wire rope began to continuously tighten, and with a "bang" sound, the lid of the tomb master's coffin was sent flying off by the taut steel wire rope!

The lid of the coffin fell to the ground and raised a cloud of dust. Even though Xiao Lan had covered his mouth in time, he still choked. He couldn't stop coughing, one after another. His lungs were about to explode from the impact.

After a long time until the dust settled, Xiao Lan's coughing started to ease up, and she began to walk towards the grave's owner's coffin once again.

The coffin was too tall, and Xiao Lan had no choice but to jump inside to retrieve what was inside.

Before jumping in, Xiao Lan had a moment of hesitation. Although she had killed quite a number of people for the sake of survival, this was the first time she came to snatch their things after their deaths. Moreover, her heart felt a little awkward.

However, when she thought of the fact that someone was waiting for death at the tomb's entrance, the uneasiness in Xiao Lan's heart quickly disappeared. In the next second, Xiao Lan jumped into the tomb's owner's coffin without hesitation.

Xiao Lan, who had jumped into the coffin, began to look around her. According to her employer, the Profound Spirit Pearl was a green colored bright pearl, and was very easy to find.

Xiao Lan looked to her left and right. As for the appearance of the owner of the tomb, she naturally didn't look at it. A person who had died for thousands of years, it didn't even need a thought to know what they looked like.

Xiao Lan flipped both sides but could not find the Profound Spirit Bead, so she had no choice but to raise her head to look at the head of the owner of the tomb.

Xiao Lan thought that she was certain of this dried corpse. She took a deep breath and raised her head.

When Xiao Lan clearly saw the appearance of the tomb's owner, her eyes went wide in an instant!

The corpse, which should have been a thousand-year old corpse, now looked as if it had fallen asleep. There was no sign of decay or weathering!

Instantly, Xiao Lan stopped breathing and uncontrollably approached the corpse. As he neared, Xiao Lan was actually able to clearly see the smooth skin of the corpse!

At this moment, the nerves all over Xiao Lan's body started to vibrate uncontrollably. So the matter of the ancient people being able to perfectly preserve the corpse was true!

How did they do it!? Powerful!

Xiao Lan began to carefully size up the real owner of this coffin. When she clearly saw the features of the tomb master, Xiao Lan's eyes, which had just returned to normal, fiercely widened once again!

Is this guy a man or a woman!? His looks were too hard to differentiate between males and females!

His exquisite facial features were flawless, and every part of his face was perfect. Long eyebrows, wings, and thin lips were perfectly carved out, as if they were exquisite sculptures. If he wasn't sleeping, then who knew how stunning his eyes would be!
