As Tang Li spoke, Qi Lingxuan attacked them.

A powerful sword aura charged at them like a hot knife through butter.

“Qiqi, Linlin, protect Yihan.”

After Tang Li finished speaking, her body swayed and she quickly waved her finger in the air. An invisible shield blocked the sword aura.

The sword aura and the shield collided, producing powerful sparks.

Qiqi and Linlin replied at the same time, “Yes, Godmother.”

The two of them transformed into Kylins and used their huge bodies to protect Qi Yihan.

Qi Yihan stood there, looking worried. “Li, can you deal with him now?”

Tang Li turned around and glanced at him. “Don’t worry.”

Qi Lingxuan suddenly burst out laughing.

Tang Li looked at his smile and frowned.

She was wondering what kind of power he had obtained in the ancient tomb.

At this moment, a sword appeared in Qi Lingxuan’s hand. This sword was emitting a faint blue flame. It was a beautiful color, but seeing it in this ancient tomb gave people goosebumps.

“I see.”

Tang Li’s face was tense. “So you have obtained the Heart of Earth Fire. Looks like I’ve underestimated you.”

After saying this, she took out the Fuxi Guqin and said to Qiqi and Linlin, “Qiqi, Linlin, take Yihan and leave this place first.”

“No.” Qi Yihan knew that the current Qi Lingxuan was not easy to deal with. That was why Tang Li asked Qiqi and Linlin to take him away. He would definitely not leave. “Li, give me your power. I’ll fight him.”

“You can’t fight him.”

After saying that, Tang Li waved her arm at him, and he, Qiqi, and Linlin disappeared.

Then, she started playing the Guqin.

The powerful airflow brought by the guqin instantly collided with the sword aura. In an instant, the entire space was filled with explosions and the ground started to tremble.

The powerful tremors continued to spread out, causing the nearby bugs and zombies to flee into the distance. However, they attracted the attention of the people who were looking for the main tomb.

The entrance of the main tomb was almost as wide as a football field. As soon as everyone walked over, they saw Tang Li and Qi Lingxuan fighting. Their eyes widened in shock.

“Fourth Madam is actually here too!”

“Didn’t Fourth Master say that he won’t come down the tomb? If Fourth Madam is here, he must be here too!”

“Now is not the time to talk about this. Why is Fourth Madam fighting with Qi Lingxuan but Fourth Master is not here?”

“Everyone, look. There’s a door opposite. Is that the main tomb?”

“Definitely. Otherwise, Fourth Madam wouldn’t be fighting with Qi Lingxuan.”

“Aren’t they the same family? Why are they fighting?”

“Same family? Qi Lingxuan is just an illegitimate son. After everyone entered the tomb, he disappeared. Don’t you think it’s a little strange that he can still be here?”

“It’s more than strange. Look at their fighting, is that what normal people are capable of doing?”

“They might not be humans.”

“I think so.”

“Then what should we do? Should we help Fourth Madam?”

“What do you mean? Do you think we can even approach them? They can make the earth shake. If we approach them, we’ll die.”

“That’s right. Fourth Madam must be stopping Qi Lingxuan from entering the main tomb. Why don’t we go in first? When we find a powerful manual, we might be able to help Fourth Madam.”

“I agree.”

“I agree.”

The people who said they would help Tang Li were just making things up. Why would they help her? Their real goal was to find an excuse to enter the main tomb.

Everyone had been here for more than ten days. When they came in, there were hundreds of people, but now, there were only a few dozen people left. The people who stayed behind relied on their faith to survive in a tomb filled with bugs, traps, and zombies. To be able to find the main tomb at this time was simply a ray of hope.

As long as they found the main tomb and got the various good things inside and the elixir that everyone wanted, they could leave and get rich.

At this thought, everyone looked at each other with sparkling eyes.

However, after they walked for a while, a sword aura swept over.

Before the people in front could react, they were cut into pieces.

“Ah…”

The rest of the people looked at the bloody corpse and were dumbfounded. Their legs were so weak that they could not move.

“If you want to live, leave this place immediately.”

Tang Li’s voice was like a wake-up call. After everyone shuddered, their bodies reacted faster than their brains. They turned around and fled away.

As they fled, Qi Lingxuan’s sword aura attacked them indiscriminately.

They were all blocked by Tang Li.

The two of them continued fighting, and the rumbling and shaking became even louder.

Tang Li did not expect the Heart of Earth Fire to be so powerful that it could directly turn this sword spirit from intermediate to the highest level.

This was the first time she had seen a high-level sword spirit. She had only heard her master mention it before, so she didn’t know how to subdue it.

However, she recalled what her master had once said. “If you can learn the sword forging technique of our ancestor, you can easily recast the highest-level sword spirit.”

In the past, Tang Li did not think it was necessary, but now she regretted it.

“Tsk… Master, Master, even if I didn’t want to learn, you should’ve forced me to.”

Seeing that Qi Lingxuan’s attacks were getting stronger and stronger, Tang Li could not hold on anymore.

She thought for a moment and directed the attack to the door of the main tomb.

With a bang, a large hole was blasted open in the door of the main tomb and she flashed into it.

However, the moment she entered the main tomb, Tang Li was stunned.

It didn’t look like a tomb but a magnificent palace. When she entered, she saw a particularly solemn and majestic hall. In the hall stood two rows of armored warriors. Although they did not move, they all carried a murderous aura.

Before Tang Li could look around the entire hall, Qi Lingxuan chased after her.

The moment Qi Lingxuan entered, he immediately started attacking Tang Li with a powerful sword aura.

Tang Li turned to look at Qi Lingxuan and pursed her lips into a cold smile.

“How dare you use a sword aura in the Xuanyuan King’s hall.”

With that, she flew above the hall, beside the throne. She took out the copper bell and started shaking it.

“All Heavenly Soldiers and Heavenly Generals, listen up. This person has trespassed into the Xuanyuan King’s main hall. Kill him!”

The armored soldiers in the hall moved at the same time.

They surrounded Qi Lingxuan.

The fight instantly started.

Tang Li did not watch the battle. She turned around and ran to the side.

She knew that these soldiers could not stop Qi Lingxuan. At most, they could stall him for a while.

She wanted to go to the Xuanyuan King’s bedroom and tomb to see if there was anything there that could deal with this high-level sword spirit.

After Tang Li ran out of the hall, she saw that the floor railings were made of jade, the pillars were made of gold, and there were many jewels and agates inlaid on them.

There was not a single lamp in the entire palace, but it was abnormally bright.

After running for a while, Tang Li realized that there were various formations set up here.

She couldn’t leave this place at all.

At that moment, a tall figure appeared in the corridor. Tang Li was shocked. “Yihan, why are you here?”

The man stopped and stood there, looking at her with pursed lips and obvious displeasure in his eyes.

Tang Li quickly walked over and stood in front of him. She raised her head and said to him, “Didn’t I tell you to hide? We can’t defeat Qi Lingxuan, who is controlled by the sword spirit. What if you are accidentally injured by him?”

With that, she was about to grab his hand and take him away.

However, he tilted his body and dodged her hand. He looked at her sharply, just like when Tang Li first came to this book and saw him.

Tang Li frowned. Knowing that he was angry, she grabbed his hand and wrapped it with her hands.

The man looked at her with a deep gaze, but he did not retract his hand.

Tang Li said, “I know you’re worried about my safety. Didn’t I tell you before that unless I want to die, no one can hurt me? I’m sending you away because I’m worried that your body won’t be able to withstand Qi Lingxuan’s sword aura. If you get hurt, my heart will ache.”

After saying that, she stared at him sincerely.

He looked into her eyes for a few seconds before finally saying, “Let go.”

Tang Li suddenly let go as if she had been scalded. At the same time, she took a few steps back and pointed at him. “You, you, you… You’re not Yihan!”

The two of them looked exactly the same and were even in the same clothes.

However, the moment he spoke, it felt different.

“Who are you?”

Tang Li said angrily, “Since it’s not Yihan, why didn’t you tell me?”

The man looked at her unhappily.

Did she give him a chance to speak?

However, he was looking at his hand and feeling the lingering warmth that he hadn’t felt in such a long time.

Most importantly, she could actually hold his hand.

Just as the man was surprised, a rumbling sound came from outside.

The man frowned unhappily, and a murderous aura that made Tang Li’s heart palpitate emanated from his body.

At this moment, Qi Lingxuan entered. His already tattered clothes were even more tattered, and his eyes were terrifyingly red.

When he saw the man standing next to Tang Li who looked like Qi Yihan, a one-meter-long sword appeared in his hand.

The sword aura immediately charged at the man.

“Go to hell.”
