With determination in his eyes, Xiao Yan came to the skeleton, clasped his hands together, closed his eyes and worshiped it sincerely, then walked towards the door.

The Little Medical Fairy, who had just taken out the medicine digging tools from her waist bag, noticed Xiao Yan's actions and asked with some confusion.

"Hey! Where are you going? Don't you want your things anymore?"

"Get it yourself. I'll wait for you outside the door."

Xiao Yan responded calmly.

Although he himself would not touch the things in the secret room, he would not stop Xiao Yixiang.

At present, Xiao Yan only needs one person to abide by his own righteous path. Xiao Yan will not force others to abide by his righteous path. It is for this reason that Xiao Yan develops a unique liking for the upright Yun Zhi.

Feeling Xiao Yan's inner determination, Yao Chen also sighed deeply.

This kid is just stubborn.

But it is precisely because of this that he has integrity that no one else can compare to, and that is why I trust him so much.

Yao Chen sighed like this, and then wiped away the dissatisfaction in his heart.

Never mind. Put yourself in their shoes. If someone breaks into your grave for treasure after you die, you’ll also feel unhappy.

Yao Chen was thinking carefully, and suddenly realized something. He widened his eyes and shouted suddenly.

(Watch out behind you!)

"Xiao Yan! Be careful!!!"

? !!

The moment Yao Chen's voice fell, Xiao Yixian's panicked voice was also heard, and Xiao Yan felt something cold touching his shoulder. This lifeless feeling made Xiao Yan's back go cold. He turned around and stepped back instantly. After seeing clearly what it was, his eyes revealed astonishment.

It was the skeleton that had just sat on the chair! It was also the owner of this tomb!

(What's going on? He's still alive?!)

(No, he is indeed dead.) Yao Chen denied softly and explained slowly, (He must have taken some kind of poisonous insect before he died, and after he died, he would sense the breath of a living person and his skeleton would wake up.)

As he spoke, Yao Chen's tone also became heavy.

(It seems that this person really wants to protect his inheritance.)

After hearing Yao Chen's words, Xiao Yan's expression froze. He then stood up straight and saluted the skeleton with his hands clasped together.

"I am sorry for trespassing into your resting place without permission. I hope you will forgive me! I will take my companions and leave now!"

After saying this, Xiao Yan was ready to jump over the skeleton to pull Little Medical Fairy out. At the same time, his body was tense and he kept paying attention to the movements of the skeleton at all times.

He had just performed the salute only to follow his righteous habit, but Xiao Yan did not think that this skeleton could have self-awareness.

According to Yao Chen, it is not impossible for this skeleton to suddenly attack him.

Therefore, prevention must be taken.

If you really have to.

There was a flash of apology and a hint of ruthlessness in Xiao Yan's eyes.

I can only say, I am offended.

Chapter 82 Pride

Xiao Yan's whole body was tense as he walked slowly towards the side of the skeleton, watching its every move with his peripheral vision.

Three steps

two steps

Just when Xiao Yan was only one step away from passing the skeleton, the skeleton suddenly raised its arm bone, blocking his way!

!!!

Xiao Yan focused instantly, raised his fist suddenly, and stared at the skeleton's movements, his eyes constantly moving back and forth between the skeleton and the Little Medical Fairy behind it.

It would be fine if the skeleton was only targeting him, but Xiao Yan was afraid that the skeleton would also recognize Xiao Yixian as its target of attack.

In that case, in order to prevent Xiao Yixian from getting hurt, it would be difficult for Xiao Yan to guarantee that he could take Xiao Yixian away safely without destroying her skeleton.

They break into each other's tombs, seize each other's inheritance, and may even destroy each other's remains.

Xiao Yan couldn't accept it in his heart.

But, the dead are dead after all.

Xiao Yan's righteous path may seem pedantic, but it is not pedantic enough to disregard the lives of the living in order to maintain the dignity of the dead!

Xiao Yan clenched his fist tightly, and the dark power of Bajipeng gradually gathered on his fist.

If it really comes to the point where I have no choice but to do it, I can only apologize!

Just when Xiao Yan made up his mind, the skeleton in front of him moved again.

However, there was no sign of any attack. Instead, the skeleton reached into his tattered clothes and began to grope. Just as Xiao Yan was feeling puzzled, the skeleton took out two things from his body.

A set of three keys connected together, and a scroll.

Seeing this, Xiao Yan was stunned.

Is this the key to the three treasure chests in the secret room? And what about that scroll?

Just when Xiao Yan's mind was a little confused, the skeleton handed these two things to him. Xiao Yan came to his senses belatedly, pointed at himself in a daze, and asked the skeleton questions.

"Is this for me?"

After Xiao Yan asked, the skeleton nodded slightly. Xiao Yan was stunned for a while, then slowly stretched out his hand, and hesitantly reached for the key and scroll on the skeleton's hand bones.

During this process, Xiao Yan was still worried that the skeleton would suddenly attack and hurt someone, but the facts proved that he was overthinking.

Until Xiao Yan got the two things, the skeleton did not move again, and Xiao Yan's mind was full of question marks.

What is this

(Xiao Yanzi, could it be that this skeleton wants to give everything to you?)

Yao Chen's voice rang in Xiao Yan's heart, making Xiao Yan even more confused.

(Why?)

(.)

Now, even Yao Chen was silent.

She just judged this based on the skeleton's behavior, but she had no idea why the skeleton did so.

Just when the master and disciple were puzzled, the skeleton reached his hand into his clothes again and took out something. Xiao Yan and Yao Chen recognized it at first sight.

That's the ring.

The next second, the skeleton's finger bones threw up the storage ring and began to collect all the medicinal herbs and gold coins in the cave, causing the little medical fairy to panic instantly.

"My medicinal materials! My money!!!"

Feeling something was wrong, the little medical fairy immediately wanted to grab a handful of gold coins and keep them, but it was of no use.

In just a few seconds, everything that could be called treasure in the secret room was collected by the skeleton into the ring.

Then, the skeleton stretched out his hand to Xiao Yan again, with the storage ring lying safely in his palm.

This scene made Xiao Yan even more confused, and he asked blankly.

"Will all of these be given to me?"

The skeleton still said nothing and nodded slightly.

After seeing the skeleton nod, Xiao Yan slowly stretched out his hand, picked up the storage ring in his palm, and stared at it blankly.

The skeleton turned around, returned to the stone chair and sat down again.

At this moment, Yao Chen suddenly discovered something and immediately reminded.

(Xiao Yanzi! The inscription on the monument has changed!)

Ok? !

Xiao Yan looked at the stone tablet next to the stone chair. The original words slowly disappeared and turned into two completely different lines of words.

[It is rare that you are willing to respect the dead. All the property in the room is given to you. Don't refuse.]

After seeing these two lines of words, Xiao Yan and Yao Chen both understood, and Yao Chen couldn't help but sigh in his heart.

(I see. Xiao Yanzi, your bow just now actually received such a favor. I never thought it would happen.)

Yao Chen knew in his heart that, at least among the people he knew so far, no one would sincerely pay tribute to an unrelated person who died in his own secret room.

Because they don't think there is any need for worship.

It is true that the skeleton was trying to protect his treasure, but on the other hand, he also had a glimmer of fantasy, wanting to wait for someone who could sincerely worship him, a person who died alone in a secret room.

Xiao Yan finally came back to his senses at this time, smiled softly, and said helplessly in his heart.

(Senior Yao, I have never thought that I could gain anything by worshiping other people's corpses. This is the first time.) Xiao Yan looked at the thing in his hand, his eyes flickered, (To be honest, I am very proud now.)

Although Xiao Yan never expected that the righteous path he followed could bring him any benefits, on the contrary, he lost a lot because of this righteous path.

Now, the things that the skeleton had given him made Xiao Yan feel for the first time that his righteous path was recognized by others.

(Haha. This opportunity is only available to you.)

Yao Chen chuckled.

The strength of the skeleton is certainly nothing in the eyes of a true strong man.

But those truly powerful ones probably look down on the things in his secret room.

At least for those who can appreciate the treasure in the secret room, the threat posed by the skeleton is absolutely deadly.

No one would have thought that Xiao Yan could get everything in the secret room so easily in this way.

No. It's not easy at all.

Yao Chen corrected himself secretly in his heart.

It seemed like a simple worship, but it was the righteous path that Xiao Yan had followed step by step, adhering to his heart. This was by no means something that could be done easily.

"Hey!"

At this time, Little Medical Fairy walked over indignantly and glared at Xiao Yan with resentment on her face.

"This is it, I brought you here."

What this means is, don't even think about keeping the things here for yourself, even if they are given to you by the owner of this secret room!

"I know~"

Xiao Yan came back to his senses, smiled and waved his hand, took out the Ice Spirit Flame Grass from the storage ring in front of Xiao Yixian, and then threw the storage ring to her.

"I'll just take this one, the rest are at your disposal."

"Eh?!"

Xiao Yixian hurriedly caught the storage ring that Xiao Yan threw to her, stared at him blankly, and after a long time, she asked hesitantly.

"Will you take more?"

Xiao Yixian was flattered. She had thought that getting half would be the best result. She never expected that Xiao Yan only took that one rare medicinal herb and gave her the rest.

"Because I only need this at the moment." Xiao Yan said calmly, putting the Ice Spirit Flame Grass back into his storage ring, and then said: "Even if it is given to me by the owner of this secret room, I am not willing to get too much ill-gotten gains in this way, which may easily disrupt my path."

Xiao Yan said this because he did not want to pursue the righteous path in order to gain more benefits. If he believed this in his heart, once he became utilitarian in his pursuit of the righteous path, it would be even more difficult for him to walk on the righteous path in the future.

This time, it was just an exception. Xiao Yan understood this deeply in his heart.

Therefore, this one Ice Spirit Flame Grass is enough.

If this medicinal herb was not needed to absorb the strange fire, Xiao Yan would not even take it away.

Absorbing the strange fire to evolve the Burning Art and forging a body for Yao Chen one day in the future, this is equivalent to Xiao Yan's own righteous path, and both are things that must be accomplished.

Chapter 83 The Real Scum

After hearing what Xiao Yan said, Xiao Yixian was stunned for a long time before she came back to her senses.

Then, I felt extremely ashamed and angry.
