122: Heavy footsteps, heavy heart

Li Laoda smiled triumphantly, "Of course it's a student. It's summer vacation work now. Look at them, then look at us. We are truly pathetic."

"I am closer to Ye Bai. After they come out, I will visit in person. You all just wait for my news."

When Li Laoda said this, his eyes were full of triumph.

"On what grounds? Why do you get to visit in person while we can't?"

"Exactly! I'm buying a ticket to go back right now."

"Me too. I'll drive back. Don't go visiting in person yet; I'm going back to check it out too. Besides, we haven't seen each other in a long time. Let's have a proper get-together."

Upon hearing Li Laoda's words, those people were immediately unwilling.

A person like Ye Bai is a talent. We can't let Li Laoda monopolize the advantage!

"You guys..."

"Alright, that's decided. I'm going back now. Have your people pick me up at the airport."

"And me!"

"Same here!!"

Before Li Laoda could finish speaking, he saw that they had hung up the phone.

Finally, he looked helplessly at the Live Stream Room. He just hoped Ye Bai would return soon; he also wanted to ask clearly if the matter concerning the Zhang Family Clan Chief had anything to do with him.

Inside the Tomb.

Ye Bai calmly put the black gold ancient blade back into its scabbard.

He turned and walked towards the entrance of the cave.

"Ye Bai, won't you reconsider? There might be very powerful people inside. That's what King Yelang said!"

Zhang Dada saw that Ye Bai intended to go in, so he hurriedly tried to persuade him otherwise.

They didn't want to go in. If they really went in, they would truly be waiting for death.

It wasn't just Zhang Dada who didn't want to go; Hua Chenyu, Cai Xukun, and Huang Zitao were all waiting for Ye Bai's response.

Wu Jing and Yang Mi were actually quite conflicted. Instinctively, they didn't want to go either, but if Ye Bai insisted, they would still follow him.

"If you're scared, just wait here."

Ye Bai said without looking back.

Then, he continued to step forward.

"Ye Bai, wait for me, I'll go with you."

As a veteran female sycophant, Meng Ziyi would follow Ye Bai wherever he wanted to go.

No matter where he went, she was willing to go, even if it meant death.

Seeing Ye Bai's firm attitude, Reba, Yang Chaoyue, and Bailu followed without hesitation.

Although they didn't speak, their attitude had already decided everything.

"I'll go with you."

Seeing Reba's determined appearance, Yang Mi pondered slightly, and finally followed.

Wu Jing took a deep breath, said nothing, and stepped forward to follow.

Seeing that they had all gone up, Zhang Dada, no matter how unwilling he was, had no choice but to follow.

"I'm really speechless. Knowing it's dangerous and still going in? They're really sick!"

Cai Xukun didn't dare to speak loudly and could only mutter softly.

"What other choice is there? This place also has a King Yelang; who knows what might appear? If we don't follow and we encounter something, what will we do?"

Huang Zitao didn't want to go either, and now felt that every step was extremely heavy.

Zhang Dada and Hua Chenyu looked at each other, said nothing more, and silently followed behind.

At this moment, except for Ye Bai, the celebrities were all feeling extremely heavy-hearted.

They even began to imagine various scenes of waiting for death, and even felt that the flowers and plants inside this cave were dangerous.

If a big tree could kill people, let alone these flowers and plants.

For a time, in the entire Passage, there was no other sound except for footsteps.

Ye Bai led them inside.

Everything around was terrifyingly quiet.

The audience in the Live Stream Room began to feel nervous when they saw the scene in front of the camera.

【Oh my god! These are truly heavy footsteps! I'm starting to worry.】

【Me too, I don't understand why Brother Ye Bai is going in? Does he have some kind of goal?】

【What are you saying? What goal? What goal could he possibly have?】

【Look at you, why are you anxious? I'm just saying, Brother Ye Bai seems to have a deep obsession with the Tomb, even more dedicated than the Archaeological Team. I'm just curious why Brother Ye Bai is so persistent.】

【I'm also very curious. After Brother Ye Bai saw the Tomb, he came in without hesitation. Also, after coming in, have you noticed that his aura seems different? It always feels like a very powerful beast is lying in wait.】

【Does entering a Tomb change one's aura?】

The audience's bullet comments were still flashing rapidly, giving them a new understanding of Ye Bai.

They felt that Ye Bai looked very strange. If he was previously a cold, icy handsome guy, now he was a beast beneath the iceberg, possessing a mysterious aura—mysterious and immense.

Inside the Tomb.

Everyone walked for twenty minutes and saw five identical doors appear before them.

On these five doors were five different Statues. On these Statues were human faces, and these five faces were carved with five expressions: joy, anger, sorrow, happiness, and grief.

Looking at this scene, they were all stunned.

What is going on? Why are there five doors?

"This... how can there be five doors?"

"Then which one do we take?"

Meng Ziyi followed behind Ye Bai; her breathing was unstable, and she spoke panting.

"Just pick any of these five doors; they are all very dangerous anyway."

Zhang Dada didn't care; both sides were dangerous places, so did it matter what kind of danger it was?

That shouldn't be important, right?

"Shut up."

Upon hearing Zhang Dada's words, Yang Chaoyue scolded him without thinking.

If it were really as simple as he said, then what else is there to say? Wouldn't it just be waiting for death?

What's with the doors? What is the meaning of these doors?

Zhang Dada was scolded by Yang Chaoyue again. He was very unconvinced in his heart, but he didn't say anything more; he couldn't lower himself to the level of a young girl.

"Ye Bai, is there some sort of explanation for these doors?"

Yang Mi also felt that these doors were not as simple as they looked and that there must be some intention behind them.

"Five-Element Gates!"

Ye Bai slowly uttered these three words.

"Five-Element Gates? What is that? Are these doors the Five-Element Gates?"

Cai Xukun was still confused; it was his first time hearing this term.

"The Five-Element Gates correspond to the Five Elements; four are Death Gates, and only one is a Life Gate."

Ye Bai looked deeply at the doors.

"Ah? Then the chance of survival is only one-fourth?"

"What kind of doors are these? Can we not go in? Should we hurry and get out?"

Upon hearing this, Cai Xukun's expression changed instantly.

It would be one thing if it were dangerous but still had a chance of survival, but these are Death Gates. Wouldn't there be zero hope after going in?

It's better to leave immediately.

"Yeah! Let's go out, don't delay. These are Death Gates! Picking the wrong one will get us killed, let's just go."

Upon hearing this, Zhang Dada hurriedly said.

"Right, right, right! Let's leave quickly?"
