At this time, Jiang Nan discovered that a wall of the stone prison was slowly lifted up, revealing a dark and deep secret passage.
"Let's go, there is a secret room inside."
After Danying finished speaking, she instantly turned into a shadow and flew directly in.
"Danyakura, be careful."
Jiang Nan immediately gave a warning and followed closely behind Dan Ying.
Thinking of what happened in the cursed secret passage, Jiang Nan subconsciously became a hundred times more cautious.
"Jiangnan, there is nothing in this secret passage, feel free to come in." Danying comforted Jiangnan.
Jiang Nan felt relieved.
He was not worried about himself, nor was he afraid of monsters. He was just vaguely worried that Danying would be harmed by monsters, so he seemed a little more cautious.
Jiang Nan followed Danying and flew a few meters away before entering the secret room.
The secret room is octagonal, and a skull oil lamp is lit at each corner. The oil lamp emits a yellow-green light, illuminating the entire secret room in an eerie and terrifying manner.
"Xu Banxian, are you there?"
In fact, the secret room was not big. As soon as Jiang Nan stepped in, he could tell whether there was anyone inside. Obviously Xu Banxian was not inside, but Jiang Nan still called out tentatively without giving up.
"Jiang Nan, my estimate was wrong. Xu Banxian was not imprisoned in the back mountain." Dan Ying looked at Jiang Nan with lonely eyes and said.
Along the way, the two of them experienced hardships and narrowly escaped death, but found that there was no one in the stone prison, and they were inevitably a little disappointed.
"It's okay. Even if we don't find Xu Banxian here, at least we have figured out the situation here. If we attack Xiaoyao Palace in the future, it will be much easier." Jiang Nan comforted.
"That's right." Danying paused and said, "The viciousness of the Demon King cannot be underestimated. In just a few days, he has turned Xiaoyao Palace into a second demon clan."
"Looking at him like this, it won't be long before this place becomes a real demon clan."
Danying's eyes were filled with worry.
The demons did all kinds of bad things back then and brought too much suffering to the world.
Jiangnan will never allow such a thing to happen again.
Jiang Nan said seriously: "I will not let the ambition of the Demon King succeed!"
Danying looked at Jiangnan and nodded.
She believes Jiangnan can do it.
Jiang Nan said: "Since Xu Banxian is not here, we can exclude the back mountain."
Jiang Nan comforted Dan Ying, then gave Dan Ying a don't be discouraged look, and then said: "Let's go find Hua Wushuang now. Maybe she has already found out about Xu Banxian."
"Okay, it seems we can only go back to Hua Wushuang's room to discuss it further." With Jiang Nan's encouragement, Dan Ying regained her former confidence.
Jiang Nan and Danying looked at each other and smiled, and at the same time they turned into two lights, one white and one purple, and flew quickly down the mountain.
"Jiangnan, we go directly across the valley to the mountainside of Qianfeng."
Just when Jiangnan and Danying were about to reach the canyon between the front peak and the back peak, Danying suddenly suggested.
"Danying, what is there in this canyon? It makes you so afraid." Jiang Nan's curiosity became more intense, and he couldn't help but ask.
"After defeating the Demon King, you will naturally know that now is not the time, let's leave quickly." Danying looked a little panicked, and kept looking towards the canyon while urging Jiang Nandao.
"Okay, let's go." Jiang Nan looked at Dan Ying as if he was lying. Jiang Nan followed Dan Ying, whooshed across the sky and landed directly on the mountainside of the front peak.
"There is a demonized pterosaur on the front peak. Let's take a detour from the mountainside." Danying frowned and suggested as she looked at the still burning flames on the top of the front peak.
"good."
The two of them stood side by side again and flew outward quickly around the mountainside of the front peak.
After several leaps, they saw the millipedes that were killed as soon as they entered the back mountain.
At this time, this millipede had been eaten away by countless demonized snakes and insects, leaving only the extremely hard shell scattered on the ground.
"I can finally breathe a sigh of relief." Danying fell on the ground and said as she looked at Jiang Nan and patted her chest.
"If nothing happens in the future, don't come to the back mountain." Jiang Nan turned his head, looked at the back mountain that almost killed them, and sighed softly.
Seeing that it was getting late, the two of them did not dare to delay any longer, turned around and flew towards Hua Wushuang's room.
Hua Wushuang was in the room at this time, restless and worried, looking out the window from time to time, eagerly looking forward to the return of Dan Ying and Jiang Nan.
"We are back, please close the door."
At this moment, Jiang Nan's voice sounded in the room.
"It's great that you are finally back." Hua Wushuang heard the sound and immediately showed a very happy smile on her face.
She stood up immediately and closed the windows and doors firmly.
"You two, you can show up now. There is no danger around." After finishing everything, Hua Wushuang said to the empty room.
"good."
As Jiang Nan's voice fell, the two of them suddenly appeared in Hua Wushuang's room.
"Why did you come back now? But have you found the whereabouts of Xu Banxian?" Hua Wushuang asked impatiently as soon as he saw Jiang Nan and Dan Ying.
"No." Danying said in a cold tone.
"Oh." Hua Wushuang nodded and sat down nervously.
"Hua Wushuang, what happened?" Danying saw Hua Wushuang's abnormality at a glance, and immediately asked sharply.
"It's nothing. It was just when I was looking for clues near the altar today that I realized how cruel the high priest was." Hua Wushuang took a deep breath and said with lingering fear.
"You didn't know that just now, did you?" Danying snorted and rolled her eyes.
"I knew the high priest was ruthless before, but I didn't expect him to be so ruthless."
As Hua Wushuang talked, she fell into the terrible memories of what she had just seen.
Hundreds of human babies were neatly arranged on the sacrificial platform. Just when Hua Wushuang was wondering what he was going to do, he saw the high priest opening his arms and taking a deep breath with his mouth wide open.
With the inhalation of this breath, these babies turned into mummies alive.
What frightened Hua Wushuang even more was that she could clearly see that the souls of these babies were sucked into the mouth of the high priest.
The high priest chewed up the souls of these babies alive and swallowed them into his stomach, making a clicking sound in his mouth like a biscuit.
It turns out that the high priest actually increases his magic power by sucking the souls of babies!
"What did you say?" Danying exclaimed in disbelief when she heard this.
"It's absolutely true. I saw it with my own eyes and I'm definitely not lying." Hua Wushuang said with complicated eyes.
At this time, she began to feel conflicted in her heart: become the concubine of the Demon King or stand on the side of Jiangnan and Danying?
