“Huh? Where did Chen Zhufeng go?”

The people of Anti-Bei Alliance had arrived at the end of the pa.s.sage but found no one there.

Zhou Daoxian narrowed his eyes studying the cavity in the floor, then the jade door up in front. “The hole is too small for Chen Zhufeng to crawl through. However, this door is perfectly intact. There’s no way he has the ability to go through walls. So, where did he go?”

When the group heard this, their brows furrowed in frustration. Along the way there, they did not see Chen Xiaobei, nor did they see his body.

It was as if Chen Xiaobei had just evaporated and completely disappeared from the pa.s.sage.

“Everyone, split up! Do a thorough sweep! Don’t miss a single corner!” Chen Daoxian shouted.

Immediately, the hundreds of people got to work, and began the search for Chen Xiaobei.

They went from the end of the pa.s.sage to the entrance of the pa.s.sage. Not only did they look into every nook and cranny, they even made sure to examine each and every one of the slashed corpses.

Alas, at the end of the day, they found nothing. Not even a single trail that could lead them to the whereabouts of Chen Xiaobei.

The hundreds of men returned.

“Reporting, Faction leader. We didn’t find anything.

“Nothing.”

“We found nothing on our side either.”

The leaders began to feel uneasy.

“That’s strange? Could Chen Zhufeng have really simply evaporated into thin air?” Ding Xiadong asked.

“This is very strange indeed.” Feng Aotian frowned. “A perfectly intact living person vanished just like that?”

“Search again! There’s no way he could have just disappeared!” Zhou Daoxian shouted.

The people split up and once again, they carefully combed the entire pa.s.sage.

By this time, Long Zishan and the others had already made their way to the end of the pa.s.sage.

Long Zishan and Liu Xuanxin were shocked to hear that Chen Xiaobei had disappeared without a trace.

Xiangyu and Six-Eared Macaque on the other hand looked at each other, a delighted smile on each of their faces.

Clearly, Chen Xiaobei’s disappearance must have had something to do with the Three Realms Red Envelope group, and the both of them had an idea as to what had happened!

Since it was day, the Nightstalker Outfit was useless.

The Anti-Bei Alliance had searched everywhere, but even the Verdant Emperor’s Divine Gourd was nowhere to be found.

This meant that in order for Chen Xiaobei to hide, there was only one option left – High-tier Prosperous Monkey Fur!

That’s right! When Chen Xiaobei found himself in a tight corner just now, a brilliant idea popped into his head – make use of the last High-tier Prosperous Monkey Fur and transform into a teeny-weeny little flying insect.

Right now, Chen Xiaobei was hiding on the ceiling of the pa.s.sage. The Anti-Bei Alliance could scour the entire place all they want, but they would never be able to find him.

“The High-tier Prosperous Monkey Fur is really useful but sadly, I didn’t get it during the Kings of Glory compet.i.tion. I need to ask Monkey King for a few more!”

Chen Xiaobei was hiding between the cracks of the rocks, observing the whole situation high from above. “Right now, I just need to wait for these idiots to break open the jade door, and fight to the death with whatever is behind the door! Then, I can just reap the harvest they’ve left behind. Hahaha!”

Before this, Chen Xiaobei had used his strength to fight the zombie legion. Right now, Chen Xiaobei was using his pure wits to gain victory – he was going to sit on top of the mountain and watch the tigers fight. He would watch in safety whilst the others fought, and then reap the rewards when both sides were exhausted.

Everything was unfolding as Chen Xiaobei had predicted.

“Faction Leader Zhou, we can’t find Chen Zhufeng. What should we do?” Ding Xiadong looked confused.

“There’s nothing we can do about it.” Zhou Daoxian shook his head. “Let’s continue to explore the tomb. Chen Zhufeng may be gone but we cannot give up on finding the treasures in Emperor Qin’s mausoleum!”

Xu s.h.i.+qiu whispered, “Should we take Liu Xuanxin prisoner first? We can keep her for later use to threaten Chen Zhufeng.”

“No!” Zhou Daoxian shook his head. “We have only just started the search. If we start a war with Long Zishan now, we will lose a lot of our people. It won’t benefit us in the big picture. What’s more important now is for us to search the tomb. We’ll think about catching Liu Xuanxin at the end!”

“Faction Leader Zhuo is indeed the wisest! We’ll do as you say!” Ding Xiadong and Zu s.h.i.+qiu nodded.

“The problem right now is how we are going to open this door.” Zhou Daoxian narrowed his eyes. “Without Chen Zhufeng, we are two Orochi Scales short. There’s no way we can break this door open with our level of strength!”

Clearly, Chen Xiaobei’s understanding of the tomb was deeper than the others’.

Chen Xiaobei had already antic.i.p.ated that the Orochi Scales were void, but that thought had not come across Zhou Daoxian’s mind.

“If the worse comes to worst, all of us will work together and force the door open!” Ding Xiadong said.

Xu s.h.i.+qiu nodded. “Yeah! If we can’t open the door even if we all work together, then we can all just go home!”

“Mmm, there’d be no point continuing if it comes to that. It looks like we’ll have to give it all we got!”

Zhou Daoxian nodded.

“Come here! Everyone, please gather around!” Ding Xiadong ordered, a.s.sembling all the people of the Anti-Bei Alliance before the jade door.

Initially, there were only six forces in the Anti-Bei Alliance. But the Five Mountains Swords had also joined them, so now there were seven.

So, all seven demiG.o.d leaders stood in front of their troops.

“Do the three of you understand Mandarin?” Zhou Daoxian looked at the three American forces.

The Blood Emperor, Sequinn nodded, and replied in choppy mandarin, “We’ve been around for hundreds of years. Of course, we’d know a little bit of it!”

The two people next to him nodded, indicating that they too understood the Mandarin language.

These two people had yet to be introduced: they were the Grand Pope from the Vatican, Schudean, and the Holy Mage from the Wizarding School, Betadalf!

“Good! If that’s that case, then listen for our signal. We’ll attack will this door with all our strength!” Zhou Daoxian said. “We have to break this door in order to continue moving forward! If we fail, we will have to return with empty pockets! That’s why, I hope that everyone would not hold back but use everything you’ve got!”

“Understood! We will definitely do out best!” The people around him agreed, and then mustered all of their True Qi and Ethereal Forces while waiting for Zhou Daoxian’s signal to attack the door.

“Ready!” Zhou Daoxian took in a deep breath, and then shouted, “Blast it!”

BAM!

BAM!

BAM!

The seven leaders, including their hundreds of followers attacked with full force at the same time.

However, what they did not know was that this particular jade door was frail and in a bad shape. It only took one strike to send the door crumbling.

They did not expect that something was standing behind the door. The creature was gigantic! It seemed like its height could reach heaven and its presence was absolutely terrifying.

All seven leaders and their followers were confounded!
