A while ago.
"Sister May May! What about the technique? Is that technique really an Earth Level technique?! Is that technique so good!? Come on, Brother Mei! Tell me!" Hong Yue said very excitedly and also he was very enthusiastic, while waiting for a reply from Guo Mei, about regarding the Earth Level technique Yun Xiao had given him
As it was known that Earth Level techniques were extremely rare techniques, only the majority of the Minor Sects, the Great Families, Nobles, and Kingdoms, except for the Great Sect.
The most common techniques were basically just Ordinary and Extraordinary Levels, but for for Earth Level techniques like the giving of Yun Xiao, the, it could only be obtained from one's heritage or the creation of an extremely powerful expert.
But there was one more technique that was rarer than the Earth Level technique namely, the Sky Level technique!
In this Cang Lan Continent, Sky Level techniques were only the existence of myths or legends, because it was so difficult for a person to obtain a Sky Level technique in one's inheritance.
After reading the earth level technique book, Guo Mei instantly closed the technique book while putting on a serious face staring at the earth level technique book in her hand, she said. "This is really an Earth Level technique..., maybe?"
"....." Hong Yue was speechless, when she heard Guo Mei's confused statement, because she did not know whether Guo Mei was joking or indeed she who could not know, that this technique was an Earth Level technique, he said with a disappointed tone. "Sister May May! If you don't know, then don't pretend like that..."
Guo Mei chuckled when upon seeing the cute reaction from Hong Yue, she immediately patted Hong Yue's head gently, as Guo Mei could see that Hong Yue was pouting, so she could not help but frown, which reaction is so cute to see, he said. "Sorry, sorry, Yue'er."
After patting Hong Yue on the head, and seeing that her reaction had returned as usual, Guo Mei who was holding an Earth Level technique directly gave the technique to Hong Yue, she said. "As an apology from me, I will give this technique to you, Yue'er."
"...." - ".Hong Yue once again fell silent, when when she heard Guo Mei's words, she even blinked her eyes a few times and looked at Guo Mei's face with disbelief, she said. "I... Is it true that this technique is for me, Brother Mei Mei?!"
Guo Mei only gave a small nod to her answer, she said. "This is indeed true for you, after all this technique is a sword technique, so I don't need it."
Hong Yue who was looking at the technique book in front of him, could not help but smile before he finally picked up the technique book and jumped up and down in excitement, he said. "Horay! Hurrah! Hurrah! Thank you, Brother Mei Mei!"
Guo Mei who saw the extremely exaggerated reaction from Hong Yue, just stared with a gentle smile and shook her head, yet suddenly her face turned serious, she muttered. "Where did Brother Xiao get this technique? Since childhood I also never remembered, if Little Brother Xiao's nature had been like that all along, which he could just give the technique book away. Whether this had anything to do with his rumored Master or Little Xiao alone who suddenly changed like everyone else..."
Guo Mei and Hong Yue who were left behind, walked following the existing path, because this Heritage Tomb only had one path, making Guo Mei think that it was okay, that was okay, if he and Hong Yue were left behind, however Guo Mei and Hong Yue who had been inside the Relics Tomb had ignored the possibility that this Relics Tomb contained a trap!
Suddenly the sound of the trap mechanism being activated, Guo Mei who accidentally heard the voice, looked straight at Hong Yue, because he knew that Hong Yue was the cause of the active mechanism of the trap, because it could be seen that Hong Yue had accidentally stepped on a trap.
"Hhhhhh!!!!!" Guo Mei and Hong Yue shouted.
It left only the sound of their screams, which showed that they were hit by a trap, which was a hole right under their feet formed, when they had entered the trap, the hole from the former trap was again closed as usual, which could be said that the hole was actually an automatic gate.

Nowow.
"Sister Mei! It's so dark in here!" Hong Yue said fearfully to Guo Mei while hugging Guo Mei's arms quite tightly.
Although Guo Mei was actually as afraid as Hong Yue, she could not show that side of fear, because here she was only the oldest, the one, that was why as the oldest and an elder brother to Hong Yue, Guo Mei felt that she should not be frightened, if she was scared then it would only lead them to a dead end.
"....." Guo Mei looked around, which was very dark, quiet and creepy, although this place had been explained by the minimal light of fire, but this place still looked the same!
That firelight was actually a technique that belonged to Hong Yue, at first Hong Yue did not want to use this technique, because she did not want to run out of her Qi energy within this dark and silent place, but under Guo Mei's small persuasion, Hong Yue finally fell and accepted the request, but instead Hong Yue would continue to hug Guo Mei's arms the entire time and she would not leave him alone in such a dark, silent, and sinister place either.
The two of them continued to walk along the passage of their dark journey with minimal light, not knowing how long they had walked on this dark path, not knowing how long they had walked on the dark path.
Then, not far from where the two of them were walking, Guo Mei and Hong Yue saw a bright little light in front of them, Hong Yue who saw this became delighted, she said, he looked at Guo Mei with a smile and said. "Sister May May! I saw a light out there!"
Guo Mei who was looking in front of him too, only gave a small nod, then she looked at Hong Yue and smiled, she said. "En! I saw it too."
Guo Mei looked back at the bright light, then suddenly her right hand was pulled by Hong Yue while asking her to run, Hong Yue who pulled Guo Mei's hand said. "Come on! We need to hurry to that light!"
"Good, fine. Just slow down." Said Guo Mei who was smiling bitterly.
Hong Yue who was still pulling Guo Mei's hand and taking her running, shook her head and said. "N-can't be! I don't want to linger in this place!"
Hong Yue continued to run while pulling Guo Mei's hand towards the bright light they had seen before, some time later, the two of them finally reached the end of this place or where the light was.
Hong Yue and Guo Mei who reached the place were silent in place, because what they saw was an ancient building that resembled the Royal Palace.
"It's so beautiful!" Hong Yue said with admiration.
"En! It's so beautiful!" Said the astonished Guo Mei as well.
The two of them who had admired this place, and decided to walk closer to that Royal Palace, yet the two of them were suddenly startled by an Old Man's voice sounding around this place, this also made the two of them become even more frightened, or rather just Hong Yue.
"Haha! After waiting 30 years! I finally have 5 Heir Candidates who will bequeath all my relics!"
"......" Hong Yue who heard the voice of this old man became very frightened, because she could not find and see anyone here, except Guo Mei, then her embrace on Guo Mei's arm became even tighter.
"....." Guo Mei who did not care about the voice could only endure the pain from her arm, she also even flailed around a little and called out her name, but unfortunately she did not get a response, she also did not get a response, even the embrace is getting tighter.
Then suddenly a Spirit formed from the void, and an Old Man wearing a luxurious robe appeared in front of Guo Mei and Hong Yue, respectively, The Old Man looked at Guo Mei and Hong Yue with a face of disbelief and said. "Why are only 2 people going to be my Heirs, where are 3 more people going!?"
The old man immediately saw the entire place of the Tomb of Relics with spiritual senses, then found that the remaining three people were still on their way to this place, he suddenly sighed lightly and said. "It turns out the remaining 3 people are still on the way..."
