Kong Rui didn’t waste any time and immediately entered the entrance of the secret chamber.
She had been brought into this secret room countless times and was very familiar with every mechanism here.
When she was young, she tried to escape from there, but she hadn’t succeeded.
At that time, her phoenix essence had yet to awaken, and she was just a few years old. But now, these mechanisms were just trash in her eyes!
Following her memory, Kong Rui traveled all the way to the deepest part of the secret chamber.
A stone wall appeared in front of Kong Rui and the little lion.
“Master, it’s a dead end!” The little lion looked around and realized that this was the end of the secret room.
“But we didn’t see the little phoenix along the way! Was it taken away?” The little lion asked anxiously.
As Kong Rui looked at the stone wall in front of her, she frowned slightly.
This stone wall wasn’t in Kong Rui’s memories. Along the way, they didn’t see any mechanisms that led to other places.

“It must be nearby!” Kong Rui said with certainty. Then, she began to search the surrounding walls.
Seeing this, the little lion also fumbled around.
Other than a few bumps used to hang oil lamps on the bare walls, there wasn’thing else.
Occasionally, water dripped from the stone wall, as if this place was connected to the river outside.
Kong Rui touched the stone wall to find the last mechanism.
Kong Rui tried her best to think about the scene of her being brought back. There was no stone wall in her memory, which meant that someone must have activated a mechanism here!
Where was it?!
Kong Rui searched for a long time, but she didn’t find anything.
Just as she was wondering if she should just destroy the stone wall and see what was behind it, the little lion suddenly said in confusion, “Why is this place so soft?”
Kong Rui walked in the little lion’s direction and saw his feet stepping on a mud pit on the ground.
When Kong Rui checked just now, she had also discovered this mud pit but didn’t pay much attention to it. However, after Little Lion’s reminder, Kong Rui discovered something amiss.
All the ground in the cave was flat except for this mud pit.
Moreover, there were no water droplets around the mud pit. How was this pit formed?
Thinking of this, Kong Rui immediately bent down to check on the mud pit.
The mud pit wasn’t far from the entrance, and every time Kong Rui was brought back, that place seemed to be… guarded by a guard!
Kong Rui immediately thought of something.
She instructed the little lion, “Stand in that mud pit!”
The little lion was stunned, but it didn’t refuse Kong Rui’s instructions and obediently stood in the mud pit.
The little lion’s feet sank into the mud pit, but there was no reaction.
It looked up at Kong Rui. “Master, it doesn’t seem to be of much use.”
Kong Rui frowned, but she couldn’t figure out what was going on.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThe little lion was about to step out of the mud pit when Kong Rui felt something move under her feet.
She used her spiritual energy to explore the ground around the mud pit.
Finally, she seemed to have an answer!
“Can you return to your adult form now?” Kong Rui looked at the little lion and asked anxiously.
Although the little lion didn’t know what Kong Rui wanted to do, it still replied obediently, “No problem!”
As soon as it finished speaking, the little lion had already returned to the size of an adult.
The moment it became an adult, the mud pit under its feet suddenly fell.
“As expected, the mechanism is here!” Kong Rui looked at the stone wall opposite excitedly and slowly opened a door in the middle.
Kong Rui said to the little lion, “Don’t move. I’ll go save the little phoenix!”
Although the little lion was baffled, it still said obediently, “Master, be careful!”
Kong Rui quickly entered the cave.
As soon as Kong Rui entered the cave, the little phoenix sensed her aura and immediately turned around.
The little phoenix’s original listlessness disappeared and its eyes sparkled with excitement. “Master! You came to save me!”
Kong Rui saw that the little phoenix was chained and couldn’t help but feel distressed. “I’m sorry for coming so late!”
“No! Master! I knew you would definitely come back! I’ve been waiting for you!” Wanting to break free from the chains and throw itself into Kong Rui’s arms, the little phoenix flapped its wings excitedly.
