"Are you mistaken?" said the Demon Emperor, "Maybe he didn't put the dragon-tying rope in this palace."
"If that's the case, then there's nothing I can do about it."
Leng Xuan sighed helplessly. After spending so much energy, it turned out to be in vain. Feeling a little tired, he simply sat down on the seat, preparing to take a rest before setting off back to Tianyang City.
After sitting down, Leng Xuan casually put his hands on the armrests, looking a little lazy.
After sitting for a while, Leng Xuan suddenly discovered a problem. The armrests on both sides of the seat were high on one side and low on the other, which was obviously asymmetrical. Since it was the main seat in the hall, it was impossible for the manufacturer to make such a stupid mistake. Thinking of this, he lowered his head,
He looked at the handrails on both sides. Then, he gently pressed down the handrail on the higher side. Suddenly, he heard a soft "click" sound.
"Huh?" Leng Xuan's eyes lit up and he quickly looked towards the place where the sound came from. Soon, he found a thin crack on the top of the chair back. The crack was very regular, only as long as the little finger, with arcs on both sides.
linear.
Upon seeing this, he immediately called the Demon Ancestor and Demon Emperor over.
After the three of them looked at it for a few times, they heard the Demon Ancestor say: "This thing looks like a trap hole, and you must have a key to open it." "That's right." The Demon Emperor agreed.
"Key?" Leng Xuan touched his nose, "Where can I find it? Or... I just destroy it?"
"No." Demon Ancestor stopped him, "If you destroy the mechanism, it will only close the secret room forever. Then you won't even be able to find the secret room."
Leng Xuan spread his hands and said, "What should we do? Do we just watch helplessly?" After saying that, he stared at the keyhole and shook his head helplessly.
At this moment, the Demon Ancestor was also lost in thought and did not speak for a long time. Not long after, the more Leng Xuan looked at the keyhole, the more familiar he felt. This shape... seemed to have been seen somewhere. Suddenly, his heart moved,
A flash of inspiration flashed in my mind.
"Yes!" He shouted suddenly and quickly took out the sword that Demon Ancestor had just given him. "I know what the secret key is." After saying this, he pointed the tip of the sword at
The keyhole at the top of the chair back was inserted gently. As expected, the shape of the sword blade exactly matched the keyhole.
As the entire blade of the sword disappeared into the key hole, Leng Xuan grasped the handle of the sword and turned it back. Suddenly, there was a loud "bang" sound coming from outside the palace, as if something collapsed.
The three of them looked at each other and hurried outside the palace.
Less than a hundred meters away from the palace, a burst of dust was raised. When the three people arrived, they saw a secret passage on the ground, which led to a staircase. Because of the opening of the secret passage just now, the building above was damaged.
Displaced and collapsed.
Demon Ancestor took the lead and entered the secret passage at the front, followed closely by Leng Xuan and Demon Emperor.
After a while, the three of them arrived at the end of the dark passage, in a dark secret room.
There were many things placed in the secret room, all covered with thick dust. However, the most eye-catching thing was a wooden box in the center.
Demon Ancestor stepped forward and opened the lid of the wooden box. Suddenly, a faint purple light came out from inside. Leng Xuan quickly moved over and looked at the contents of the wooden box.
It was a purple rope, about two meters long. The surface of the rope was like dragon scales, very layered.
