Chapter 1215

Yan Aohan said to Zhu Yanyi, "Stand a bit further back. I will pull this switch. It is safer if something dangerous comes out."

Zhu Yanyi nodded and stepped back quite a distance. Yan Aohan waited until he was sure she was safe. Then, he gently pressed the pearl.

The ground shook and cracked open, forming a long slit.

Taking advantage of the shaking, Zhu Yanyi jumped to Yan Aohan’s side. She held his hand, and they leaped down into the crack. The ground shook again, and the slit closed up. No one noticed. The sand and soil automatically filled the three-meter pit that had been dug earlier.

About ten minutes later, a group of people arrived. They were muttering to themselves. They walked around but found nothing. One person said in surprise, "Was it really an earthquake? We have never had earthquakes here before."

"Then what was that shaking? I think an earthquake happened in the center of the desert. That is why we felt it shake. The movement was not very strong," another person said.

"I really do not want to stay in this ghost place. Our base is gone. I think I can leave now. Otherwise, if a big disaster happens here, I do not know how to escape," the first person complained.

The others felt the same way. After walking around again and confirming there was nothing else, they left. They did not know that beneath their feet lay a magical underground city.

Zhu Yanyi and Yan Aohan walked into the crack. Strangely, although the crack had just closed, it was very well ventilated. It did not feel suffocating at all.

They walked for a long time without realizing how much time had passed. Finally, they reached a flat area. Zhu Yanyi patted her legs to relax. When she turned around, she was shocked.

"Aohan, look," Zhu Yanyi pointed ahead.

Yan Aohan was slightly stunned. He looked at Zhu Yanyi. "Ani, what did you call me?"

Zhu Yanyi was surprised. She had called his name so naturally just now. She felt shy. "Then I will call you Brother Yan."

"No, no. Call me by my name. Just call me by my name," Yan Aohan said. His eyes lit up. He had waited for so many years. He could not let this progress slip away because of his own mistakes.

Seeing Yan Aohan’s excitement, Zhu Yanyi felt deeply moved. She knew his feelings for her over the years. She had responded to his feelings, but she never thought that simply calling his name could bring their relationship a big step forward. "I will call you by your name from now on."

"Good," Yan Aohan said. He hugged Zhu Yanyi tightly. His eyes were full of joy.

Zhu Yanyi pulled Yan Aohan’s hand. "Aohan, look."

Yan Aohan looked in the direction Zhu Yanyi pointed. He was also stunned. Neither of them expected to find an underground city here. From where they stood, they could see the entire underground city.

The layout of the underground city formed a six-pointed star. At each corner of the star, there was a similar house. In the center of the six-pointed star stood a clock tower. Following the shape of the star, the area was naturally divided into six sections.
