All nine empresses betrayed me, why am I crying after being reborn as a saint?

"Fellow Daoist Chen, let's go down this tunnel now and dig as we go. I believe the direction of the tomb is right below."

"Ok."

Chen Yuan nodded quickly and walked deeper into the tunnel, accompanying the three men as they dug silently underground.

The fat Taoist priest also placed the woven triangular bamboo frames in places where they thought they might collapse, and they silently chanted a spell to stabilize them.

As the three of them dug deeper and deeper into the tunnel, they soon found a dark passage.

A very ancient tunnel automatically appeared here, with some murals on both sides of the tunnel, and even a few vague brackets for torches above the tunnel.

"Fat brother, get a torch!"

The thin Taoist priest said to the fat Taoist priest.

"okay."

The fat Taoist priest immediately took out three torch sticks from his bracelet and gave one to the thin Taoist priest and Chen Yuan.

Then he took out a tinder and lit all three torch sticks.

"There are three of us, each with a torch. This way, we can look after each other. Let's light the torches on both sides as well. When the time comes, when we get the treasure below, we won't be able to blow them out when we return."

The three of them, each holding a torch, lit the torches on both sides of the ancient wooden tunnel while they were on their way.

Chen Yuan nodded repeatedly. "That makes sense."

For a moment, the dim tunnel was filled with the faint light of these torches.

Accompanied by three dim lights and shadows, they shuttled through the underground tombs of the ancient forest.

Water ripples appeared quietly, and followed the direction of the three people, slowly exploring into the tunnel, following behind Chen Yuan.

Chen Yuan could already feel the ripples of water entangled behind him again, but he did not point it out.

Just as the three Taoists were on their way, a figure dressed simply stopped them immediately.

"I know who it is. It's you, Chen Yuan. You brought these two people to this underground tunnel. Could it be that you knew that I was practicing underground?"

The person who blocked the road was Nie Ronger.

Nie Ronger was dressed in black clothes and a Taoist hat, looking like a simple Taoist priest, but it couldn't hide her exquisite body.

Behind a beautiful appearance, there is a cold heart.

Looking at the female Taoist priest in front of them, who was looking at them coldly, the fat Taoist priest next to them hurriedly asked.

"Chen Yuan, who is this girl?"

Chen Yuan said bluntly, "I don't know him."

"Oh, you don't recognize me? You asked me to be your wife before, and now you don't want to acknowledge me?"

Nie Ronger laughed out of anger, but she didn't dare to tell anyone about her rebirth. She just asked Chen Yuan in front of her indirectly.

After all, if Chen Yuan really didn’t know him, he wouldn’t have such a cold look in his eyes and wouldn’t have said anything like he didn’t know him.

She knew Chen Yuan from his previous life. When she met him, he was already surrounded by beautiful women.

Therefore, in Nie Ronger's impression, Chen Yuan wanted to make every beautiful woman he saw his concubine.

I am such a beauty. If Chen Yuan had not been reborn and still had the same personality as in his previous life, it would be even more impossible for him to say that he didn't know me after seeing me. He would definitely chat with me, help me, and curry favor with me, just like in my previous life.

"Look at this girl. Could it be that you and she have had a past relationship? Otherwise, why does she look like she has known you for a long time?"

The fat Taoist said with a smile.

"Yes, Chen Yuan didn't expect that you, who look like you are not interested in women, have a bad relationship with the woman in front of you."

The thin Taoist priest at the side also echoed.

But Chen Yuan spoke to the fat and thin Taoist priests.

"Alas, this female Taoist priest must be joking. I just met her by chance before, and there was no entanglement between us."

Chen Yuan just laughed it off.

After all, for him, everything in his previous life had long been indifferent.

But now, he was reborn. When he was just reborn and was furious in Xuantian Sect, he did not pester Lin Yusong and Yun Xiang.

Now, he was wholeheartedly seeking the truth, and there was no need for him to continue to tangle with Nie Ronger in front of him.

What's more, although Nie Ronger is a natural Taoist, she has a rather stubborn personality.

In her previous life, Nie Ronger always thought that she could not become the world's first goddess king, and thought that I had concealed some of the skills I taught her, so I was particularly dissatisfied with myself.

And Chen Yuan had explained it before.

After all, Nie Ronger was born with a Taoist body, and those who seek the Tao wholeheartedly must slowly study the infinite laws of Tao, and more haste makes waste.

In the past, he had sacrificed himself several times to prevent Nie Ronger from practicing too fast and going insane, for the sake of her own cultivation.

Nie Ronger didn't believe it. Not only was she ungrateful, but she actually framed herself like the other eight girls.

"What a chance meeting, Chen Yuan. If it's a chance meeting, how did you find the ancient mausoleum where I am? After all, I have been practicing here for many days. If you are not looking for me, why did you come to the ancient mausoleum?"

Nie Ronger still didn't believe Chen Yuan's words.

After all, the place I was looking for was so hidden.

And during all the time he had been practicing, only Chen Yuan brought two people to this ancient tomb.

Apart from that, she had never seen anyone else come here.

For a moment, in Nie Ronger's heart, could it be that Chen Yuan came here with ulterior motives to seek revenge on her?

"I just discovered this ancient tomb by accident. I felt there should be treasure inside, so I came to explore it." Chen Yuan answered calmly.

"Treasure? There is no treasure here. There is only me, a cultivator. You should leave quickly and don't disturb my cultivation." Nie Ronger said coldly.

Because she was worried that Chen Yuan was just making excuses and his real purpose was probably to cause trouble for her.

"Female Taoist, we don't mean to disturb you. It's just that we have already arrived at the ancient tomb, and you are not the owner of the ancient tomb. Why can't we go in and take a look?" The fat Taoist said dissatisfiedly at this time.

"Yes, since we are here, how can we leave so easily?" A cunning look flashed in the eyes of the thin Taoist priest.

They are both members of a cult.

Their reputation of "killing people, robbing goods, digging graves and whipping corpses" frightened their peers and made children cry instantly.

Whenever these two take action, there is no reason for them to return empty-handed.

"What do you want?" Nie Ronger looked at her warily.

"Humph, we have to go in and take a look today. If you are willing, that's fine. But if you are not willing, we will have no choice but to fight!"

The fat Taoist priest placed the torch on the lamp support on the wall, put his hands on his hips, and immediately took out his magic weapon, a pair of large copper hammers, which were the Double Spirit Copper Hammers.

The thin Taoist priest also shone the torch towards the lamp on the nearby wall and took out his weapon, a three-pointed halberd.

"No way."

Nie Ronger refused flatly with firm words.

After all, what is buried in the underground tombs is not just some rare treasures.

There is also the black ice stone that she used for meditation before.
