"Kai, stay away from that woman. The people of the Li Mansion are always extremely cunning and unpredictable. She's talked so much to you; she definitely doesn't have good intentions." Chen Yuxin said softly.

"Don't worry. Although this Miss of the Li Mansion seems arrogant, given the current situation, she's still not bold enough to make things difficult for both our families. Otherwise, why would she use a divisive tactic just now?" Ye Shikai smiled slightly. He was a master at understanding people's hearts. Although Ye Shikai was not well-versed in social affairs, his thoughts were very calm, and he could quickly analyze the schemes behind actions by starting from the other party's desires.

If the Miss of the Li Mansion wanted to make a move, she would have already called the other family members to encircle us. But she doesn't dare. A 'tiger' would never rashly start a fight with two other 'tigers.' This also explains that the Li Mansion's arrangement is to let the family members each lead a team into the ruins separately to scavenge as many treasures as possible. Li Yueying has ambitions to compete for the Family Head. If she just 'asked for help' like this, it would be too embarrassing. What she wants is to outfight the Chen and Ji families and win a lot, using it as capital to compete for Family Head.

"With the Li Mansion here, our actions might be hindered. If necessary, we'll have to tear apart the facade." Chen Yuxin said with a stern face. If they could achieve victory without fighting, it would be best. If not, given Chen Yuxin's temperament, she would definitely take the initiative to fight.

As long as no harm comes to Li Yueying's life, the Li Mansion can only swallow their anger and won't dare to seek revenge casually.

"Yes, but... Li Yueying certainly won't give up easily. I think she definitely has more plans."

Another half an hour passed, and everyone was somewhat impatient. Could it be that the timing of the relic's opening was wrong? Ye Shikai turned to look at Li Yueying, who seemed calm and unhurried, not in a hurry at all. Ye Shikai gave a mischievous grin. The Li Mansion had been here for a thousand years and was a master expert in exploring relics. Furthermore, this relic was right here in Chang'an, so the Li Mansion must be familiar with it. Since Li Yueying wasn't in a hurry, there was no reason for them to be.

Five minutes later, the dark clouds in the sky slowly dispersed, revealing the moon behind them. It wasn't the 15th, yet it was a full moon. Ye Shikai looked up at the sky, the bright moonlight resembling a large jade disk. Everyone started discussing, assuming something major would happen during a full moon. Sure enough, in the valley ahead, a white light started shining. Gradually, the light grew brighter, and in half a minute, it formed a barrier of light. Bai Qi's Relics... had opened.

"Look, the relic has opened, it really has."

"Yeah, it wasn't in vain that we waited."

"Let's go in quickly."

The three families began to discuss; the relic had really opened. Ye Shikai and Chen Yuxin exchanged a glance, then looked at Li Yueying not far away. As expected, her eyes were wide open.

"Xin, let's head out." Ye Shikai said lightly.

"Okay."

"Wait a moment, I'll go stall Li Yueying." Ye Shikai whispered into Chen Yuxin's ear.

"Alright, okay."

"Miss Li, now that the relic has opened, since we're fortunate enough to meet here, why not go together?" Ye Shikai approached Li Yueying with a cheeky smile.

"Of course, since Mr. Ye is willing, I certainly don't mind." Li Yueying glanced at the people behind her, already prepared to set out, "Everyone, hear my order, prepare to enter the relic."

"Yes, Miss."

"Boss, are we going in now?" At this moment, Ghost also walked over to inquire. Although they had hidden their identities this time, the difference was still evident. Members of the Netherworld Palace mostly wore leather jackets and trench coats, which was quite different from the clothes of the Huaxia family.

"Instruct the brothers to be ready, follow behind the Chen and Ji families, and don't push too far ahead." Ye Shikai whispered.

"Yes, Boss."

"Truly the war general of the Netherworld Palace, full of murderous aura. I see that although Mr. Ye didn't bring many people, each of them is a capable and brave fighter, enough to take on ten." Li Yueying smiled slightly. Ghost was a bit shocked; he had deliberately hidden his murderous aura, but Li Yueying still noticed it at a glance. Moreover, from her words, it was evident she was very knowledgeable about the Netherworld Palace, even aware of each member.

"Thank you for your compliment, Miss Li." Ghost said lightly, then turned to give orders.

"Mr. Ye, don't forget to send me an invitation when we come out of the relic."

"Of course." Ye Shikai glanced at the teams behind him; the Ji and Chen families had already entered, so he left assuredly.

Ye Shikai quickly stepped through the light barrier and saw the scene inside the relic. This... was an ancient tomb, or rather a canyon. Of course, given that it was Bai Qi's relic, it was naturally different from ordinary people. Speaking of miraculous things, Ye Shikai had seen plenty.

"How are you, are you alright?" As soon as Ye Shikai entered the relic, Ji Qian came up to meet him. Like the Moon God Temple, the Netherworld Palace was at the back of the team.

"I'm fine. Is there any issue inside the relic?"

"No." Ji Qian shook her head. "The team has already walked one or two kilometers. Chen Yuxin and my dad have an agreement. Once inside the relic, be careful."

"That's good, Li Mansion's people are about to enter and follow behind us. I've instructed Ghost to be cautious. If the Li Mansion makes any moves, take action immediately."

"Alright, no problem."

Ye Shikai and Ji Qian quickly walked to the front. The Chen family's team was at the forefront. As the Family Head, Chen Yuxin was accompanied by many elders. Ye Shikai wasn't too concerned about her safety; after all, as the 'leader,' others could perish, but she absolutely couldn't.

"Strange, why did the team stop?" At this moment, the large team suddenly halted. Ye Shikai hurried to the front to see the situation clearly. In front of the team was a cliff, pitch-black and bottomless, with a distance of fifty to sixty meters to the other side.

"What's going on?" Ye Shikai found Chen Yuxin, curious enough to ask.

"We just got here, and then this chasm appeared. We didn't dare to proceed rashly." Chen Yuxin walked forward slowly. Ye Shikai picked up a stone from the ground, circulated his Inner Strength, and threw it toward the opposite side powerfully. The stone shot out like a bullet, and just as it reached halfway, it seemed to be sucked in by strong suction, plunging into the depths with no echo. Indeed, it was bottomless.

"There's a strange force in this chasm, enough to pull anything in. If I'm not mistaken, once something falls, there's no chance of survival." Ye Shikai's expression was serious, staring straight ahead. If that's really the case, then how could they get across?
