Everyone looked at it with great horror, and many of them looked closely and turned their heads away in spite of it.

Walking down the dark jade-walled corridor, ten meters away, there was a shriveled mermaid hanging with only skin and bones left.

Mermaids are beautiful. Even if only white skin and bones are left, they are still terrifyingly beautiful. All the mermaids' beautiful eyes are shining, like beautiful gem beads.

They all raised their hands above their heads as if holding a lamp, and lights were lit between their hands, making the entire dark corridor as bright as day.

Jiu Moyi was so scared that he hid behind Chu Chaozhao and the others, muttering, "Is this really a mermaid? A mermaid that lives in the deep sea, has a charming voice and a beautiful face? This is too cruel!"

Shangguan Suchen frowned: "Yes, it is said that the oil of mermaids can burn for eternity. This is an everlasting lamp, which can only be made with living mermaids. The method is cruel and it is a forbidden technique that has always been resisted by all living beings..."

The entire corridor was filled with a strange fragrance, which made everyone who heard this feel uncomfortable.

Chu Chaozhao frowned. Perhaps it was because she was a dragon, and was of the same race as the mermaids, that she could actually feel the grief, fear, and despair emanating from all the mermaids...

They were asking her for help.

Chu Yingxian held her hand, not wanting to see her suffer: "Sister, let me help you cut off the connection between your bloodlines."

Chu Chaozhao shook his head and refused: "No, brother, only if I can feel their feelings can I do something for them."

There were a total of fifty-six mermaid corpses, and Chu Chaozhao remembered each one of them deeply in his heart.

Just before the gate, Jiu Moyi turned around, clasped his hands together, bowed and paid tribute, muttering something to himself.

Xie Qingyu walked along holding the sword, his expression indifferent, not moved at all.

At the end of the corridor, a blue door with relief carvings of ocean waves burst open. Everyone who saw the scene behind the door was shocked, and many people tilted their heads and vomited.

What I saw was countless people covered in blood, piled up together in tragic deaths. The smell of rotting flesh filled the entire secret room, and there was no light at all.

Xie Qingyu didn't even frown, but became alert, clenched his sword-holding hand, and stepped forward.

Everyone followed her in.

boom--

The door behind him slammed shut, which was creepy.

Xie Qingyu tried to open the door, but to no avail, so she used her sword to search among the corpses for something.

"What is she looking for?" Shangguan Sulan felt very uncomfortable when he saw that she had no respect for the dead.

"Look for the agency."

Chu Chaozhao frowned slightly, suppressed his anger and watched carefully the corpse that was chopped off by Xie Qingyu's sword.

The corpses were piled up in the huge secret room, blocking all the surrounding walls. The smell of blood and the smell of rotting bodies overlapped, making people feel nauseous.

Xie Qingyu searched everywhere without changing his expression, and finally found an eight-diagram mechanism door in the corner at the end.

She stretched out her hand and rotated the Bagua, and everyone heard a clicking sound. The door suddenly opened, and blood mud fell to the ground and merged with the blood mud on the ground.

Jiu Moyi followed him inside, and continued to clasp his hands together and mutter: "Don't blame me, don't blame me. When we find you later, we will definitely avenge you and let you rest in peace..."

Shangguan Sulan also clasped his hands together and nodded continuously.

Shangguan Suchen took a deep breath and said, "A Zhao, they were all pierced through the abdomen, as if something was dug out and they died."

Zhuge Fusheng's expression was terribly cold: "That location is the spiritual root, and those who died seem to be cultivators."

The three of them suddenly realized and looked at each other, their fingertips trembling slightly.

The three of them could hardly contain their anger.

"Those people deserve to die!" Chu Chaozhao closed his eyes slightly, took a deep breath, opened his eyes and was filled with murderous intent, like a killer from hell, "Follow me in."

"Sister." Chu Yingxian held her hand gently, "Don't be afraid."

Chu Chaozhao turned around and saw his brother beside him, and his mood suddenly calmed down: "With my brother here, I'm not afraid anymore."

As we walked further in, we could hear obvious wailing sounds.

Go further in and pass through a cave door.

There were cages made of black iron on both sides, and in each cage there was a person, whose limbs and neck were bound with chains, hanging in the air in the iron cage.

When I saw someone coming in and struggling, the chains collided with the cage, making a harsh clanking sound, but even harsher were those desperate and hoarse voices.

Someone sobered up and immediately recognized the cold fairy: "Xie Qingyu! It's Fairy Xie Qingyu! Fairy! Please save us!"

Many wounded cultivators woke up, struggling and wailing, begging her to save them. Those dead and desperate eyes were filled with hope the moment they saw Xie Qingyu.

Xie Qingyu looked indifferent: "Who are you, and who has locked you up here?"

"It's Hua Weirui! It's her!" Someone shouted with hatred, "That vicious woman with a hypocritical heart! She wants our spiritual roots and cultivation!"

"Hua Weirui?" Xie Qingyu's face showed some changes.

Not only them, all the disciples present were in disbelief and raised their voices of doubt.

"Slander! It's all nonsense! How could Empress Di Yuan be such a person, how could she disdain such evil magic!"

"That's right! The crimes committed by the aristocratic families and immortal sects in recent days may be true, but how could a philanthropic person like Empress Di Yuan do such a thing?"

"It is said that Empress Di Yuan personally visited Tianque Academy that day and sacrificed her relatives for the sake of justice. Could it be that Hua Dushan did all this in the name of the Empress?"

"Yes, Yuan Shaojin is her biological son, she would never bend the law for personal gain. Such a strong man is self-disciplined and would never do such a thing."

.......

"Hahaha!" Chu Chaozhao laughed sarcastically, "You guys really are the kind of people who won't cry until they get to the coffin."

The disciples knew that she was mocking them, but they did not dare to say anything at this moment. After all, there were ferocious demon armies in front and behind them, eyeing them covetously!
