Zhang Chen set his eyes on the body of the Mouse Spirit, while Zhong Xiang naturally had his eyes on the treasure. Just as Zhang Chen was about to move towards the corpse of the Mouse Spirit, Zhong Xiang’s foot tapped the ground, and the Mouse Spirit’s body flew up on the spot, landing directly in Zhong Xiang’s sleeve.
"You..." Zhang Chen stared at Zhong Xiang, stomping his foot in frustration.
"Consider this corpse my compensation, unless you want to stab you in the butt in return." Zhong Xiang glared at Zhang Chen, subconsciously reaching out to tug down his shirt and using it to cover his pale, tender backside.
Zhang Chen glanced at Zhong Xiang and saw a fiery red aura flashing around him, firmly guarding him and leaving no chance for Zhang Chen to secretly affix the Body-Stabilizing Rune and Sealing Rune. He had no choice but to temporarily swallow his anger, muttering to himself, "Just wait, don’t let find an opportunity, or else I’ll stab your butt until it’s in shreds."
"Let’s go! Continue deeper into the tomb and see what treasures are hidden inside." Zhang Chen felt a tinge of anticipation, knowing that in the tomb lay hundreds of mysterious relics buried alongside the Princess by the ’Emperor.’ If he could acquire so, his own fortune would be imnse, potentially elevating his entire family to the status of mysterious beings.
"You walk ahead," Zhong Xiang stood still as he spoke, his eyes revealing a hint of smugness as he looked at Zhang Chen.
Confronted by Zhong Xiang’s bullying and seeing the protective red glow around him, Zhang Chen took a deep breath, "I don’t have an undying body. If I fall into a trap and die, wouldn’t it be over for ? You have an undying body, you go!"
"Hmm? Why should I go just because I have an undying body?" Zhong Xiang retorted angrily.
"What if so ancient being erges inside, can you handle it?" Zhang Chen argued confidently, "You don’t think there’s only one old entity in this tomb, do you? If I fall inside, not only will you miss out on the treasure, even escaping will be difficult."
Hearing this, Zhong Xiang was infuriated but could only proceed first into the depths of the passage, his body surrounded by a swirling red light like flas, illuminating the entire dark corridor.
"I’m telling you... if we encounter danger later on, you need to protect first and give ti to use my skills. If I die, you’ll stand no chance against those old entities," Zhang Chen kept advising Zhong Xiang, constantly nagging as he subtly manipulated him.
He was genuinely afraid of dying, knowing he didn’t have an undying body. If he were to be torn apart, he feared it would be ga over, with no chance of resurrection.
Zhang Chen watched Zhong Xiang’s back with eyes full of envy. That undying body, he wanted it too!
Then his gaze shifted to Zhong Xiang’s backside, quietly musing, "Zhong Xiang’s butt is really perky, perkier than a woman’s. And it looks nice too, with a perfect curve."
"What are you looking at? Where are you staring at?"
People sotis have a mysterious sense of being watched, especially beings as exceptional as Zhong Xiang. He stopped, turned his head, and glared at Zhang Chen in anger, his eyes filled with sha and rage.
Rember, it was Zhang Chen, that beast behind him, who had ripped open his pants. He was only covering it up with clothes now, so he was extrely sensitive to Zhang Chen’s gaze.
"We’re both n, who’s interested in your butt?" Zhang Chen scoffed, "Even though your butt is pale, tender, and has a nice feel, you’re thinking too much."
"You..." Zhong Xiang was furious, stomping his foot. As a noble, he had received a top education. How could he compare to Zhang Chen in being shaless?
Frustrated, he could only stomp his foot helplessly, then turned around and continued walking in the dark, his heart filled with bitterness, "Once I find the treasure, I’m going to scatter his ashes."
The two of them walked slowly in the dark, cautiously moving while probing the ground for traps.
However, as they noticed the ground littered with mouse fur, Zhong Xiang’s eyes were filled with disdain.
Zhang Chen quietly followed behind Zhong Xiang, recalling the layout of the grand tomb, confirming the direction of the main burial chamber.
Before long, they reached another burial chamber, only to find that the bronze door had been completely gnawed away by the mice, leaving only traces on the ground from where the bronze door once stood.
"With the bronze door gone, things have beco much easier," Zhang Chen said joyfully, looking at the passage cleared by the gnawing. This would save a lot of ti. However, with the bronze door eaten away, everything inside the burial chamber had been devoured by the mice, leaving the entire chamber empty, with nothing left but an empty room.
"Damn Mouse Spirit, it’s been trapped here for who knows how many years, and it’s destroyed all the burial goods. I wonder how much is left in the grand tomb. Hopefully, it hasn’t eaten through everything, or we would have co here for nothing." Zhong Xiang looked at the empty chamber and the remains and traces of mice on the ground, unable to hold back his frustration, cursing out loud.
Having suffered such humiliation, entering the grand tomb only to find nothing left, with all the burial goods devoured, he felt his ntal state about to collapse.
Hearing Zhong Xiang’s words, Zhang Chen felt a shiver run through him, an ominous feeling rising in his heart, "Your cursed tongue, don’t speak such things."
"I’m just speculating," Zhong Xiang mumbled.
Chattering along, the two continued down the passage. But soon, their spirits sank deeper, as every stone chamber door they ca across had been gnawed open, and all the burial goods inside had been completely devoured.
