"I've discovered a mechanism. Should I trigger it?"

Seeing that she was being questioned, Rong Li could only add on, "The butterfly flower's fragrance seems to be coming from the secret room's entrance."

When Qin Mang heard about butterfly flower, he immediately nodded. He had come precisely for this flower fragrance, how could she not investigate it thoroughly?

Rong Li's eyes flashed as she asked, "You actually know the taste of butterfly flower? Can I know where you got that from?"

"Do you think my Nether Palace's Palace Master is fake? There are very few places in the world I have never been. It's just the scent of butterfly flower s, I once smelled it somewhere. "

Seeing his conceited look, Rong Li curled his lips. Is being knowledgeable really that great? She was still in the modern world.

As if venting his displeasure, Rong Li stomped down towards the floor.

"Pah!" The mechanism was triggered instantly, causing Rong Li and Qin Mang to suddenly step on air, and the two of them slipped into a square hole.

From the smooth stone walls around them, it was clear that this was man-made.

Qin Mang knew that they had fallen into a trap and this was not some secret room, but a trap mechanism designed by someone, and no one knew where it led to.

Rong Li cursed, she did not expect that she would fall into her trap, but if not for Thirteen holding her in her arms, just the sliding motion would be enough to skin her alive.

In just a few seconds, they fell onto the ground. Rong Li was protected very well, she basically did not receive any kind of torture.

As for Qin Mang, she subconsciously wanted to protect the woman in front of him just now. His hand was accidentally injured, and it still hurt incomparably.

The light here was dim, so Rong Li did not notice that the other party was injured at all. She stood up and asked, "Where is this place?"

"I don't know, but can you still smell the scent of butterfly flower?" Qin Mang was also looking around, but unfortunately, this was all a waste of time, causing everything to become pitch black.

Rong Li thought for a while, then took out a flint from her chest, tore off a section of her sleeve, and lit it up to light herself up.

This moment of light was more than enough for them to clearly see their surroundings for the time being. This was indeed a secret chamber. The surroundings were made of stone, smooth and flat.

What made Rong Li the happiest was that there was actually a torch by the side of the wall.

Rong Li used a flint to light up a torch. Now they could finally advance without touching the dark.

Qin Mang also took a torch, but did not light it up. Lighting was important at times like this, bringing along an extra torch, would eventually come in handy.

Rong Li said, "There is a passage in front, let's go and take a look, the butterfly flower's fragrance seems to be coming from that direction, it's very strong."

Qin Mang originally wanted to remind her to be careful, but Rong Li had already walked far away, and seeing that his entire body was about to sink into the darkness, he could only follow.

"Be careful, there are traps here."

Rong Li smiled disdainfully, "This is just an underground palace, if there's anything dangerous, I think you'll make a fuss about nothing."

With Qin Mang in front and Qin Mang behind them, the two of them walked forward slowly. No one knew just how big this underground palace was. After walking for a short while, they arrived at three forks in the road.

Rong Li stopped in her tracks. At this time, Qin Mang had also found some clues. he asked. "Which do you choose?"

"Looks like it's a maze. Then I'll just randomly choose one and walk through it. At worst, I'll just wait a bit before coming back." Rong Li was rather open-minded.

Qin Mang's head was filled with black lines, as she directly went forward and took the torch from Rong Li's hand.

"Hey, what are you doing?"

Qin Mang did not care about it, and placed the torch in each of the paths. Finally, she pointed to the path ahead and said, "There is only one path with wind, come this way."

Rong Li raised her eyebrows. She didn't expect such a simple way to differentiate between the two, what a pity.

"You're not looking for the source of the butterfly flower's words anymore?" Rong Li did not hold back, and followed behind him honestly.

Rong Li didn't approve of the other party, but felt that if there was any danger, the guy in front would be able to block it.

Qin Mang frowned when she heard it, she was still in a state with no sense of smell, but there was a time limit. If she did not leave this underground palace as soon as possible, the moment he got too close to the butterfly flower, the poison in her body would be triggered again, which would be troublesome.

Seeing that he did not say a word, Rong Li became a little annoyed, so he reached out his hand to touch the wall. This touch was nothing serious, as if she had touched something viscous. She brought it close to her nose and took a sniff. Immediately, she frowned.

"Stop!" she shouted.

Qin Mang didn't know why, but at this time, she had already walked to the very front.

But this time, something was wrong. A burst of sound quickly approached, and before he could even see what it was, he was pushed to the ground by Rong Li who was charging at him.

The two of them were lying on the ground. At this moment, a large group of bats flew over their heads. Through the firelight, they could clearly see that the largest bat was the size of an infant, and it sent chills down their spines.

"Why are there bats here?" Qin Mang asked in a low voice.

Before Rong Li could reply, the bats that seemed to have heard something came flying back. It was obvious that they were headed for the two of them.

Rong Li was helpless, at this time, the dagger was unsheathed, she started to kill the bats that were flying over, disregarding everything else.

Qin Mang was not stunned for long, sshe immediately opened up the fan, and with a pat on the blade, he instantly appeared above the fan bone.

The two of them used their strange techniques to kill as many as they could of the bats. Finally, the torches that had fallen to the ground were extinguished suddenly, and the remaining bats all flew away.

Rong Li fell to the ground. At this time, the ground was littered with the corpse of the bat, it was extremely disgusting. However, she couldn't care about all that anymore, so she felt a bit scared.

"What's going on?" Qin Mang squatted down and saw that she was sitting on the floor not moving, so she asked with concern, "Are you alright?"

Rong Li shook her head, "Luckily it's alright, these bats are poisonous, the moment they get bitten, they would die here in less than an hour."

When Qin Mang heard this, she was also frightened for a moment. Then, she heard Rong Li say, "These bats were deliberately raised to feed the poisonous creatures since they were young. That's why they themselves gradually contained extremely toxic poison. I thought I could discover some rare secret. Seems like we fell into a trap. "

Qin Mang did not say anything. He had already guessed that this underground maze had clearly been prepared beforehand for them.

The pavilion master of the Treasure Pavilion had probably already known that they would come to investigate, so he deliberately set up a trap to lure them in. It seemed that the reason there was no one guarding this backyard was because they did this on purpose.

"What do we do now?" At this point, the two of them had truly become grasshoppers on the same rope.

Rong Li stood up and said, "There are bats here, we can't continue to move forward in the dark with torches in hand."
