Chapter 126: Burial Mound, Chi Shuyan Arrives!
On the other side, when Qi Zhenbai, Chi Shuyan, and Zhu Bocheng rushed from the capital’s Nanyuan Airport to Yongning County’s ancient city, more than ten hours had passed. They had gotten a flat tire on the way before they finally arrived at Yongning County half an hour ago.
They were on their way to King Ying’s tomb at the imperial residence.
Zhu Bocheng wiped at the cold sweat on his forehead and wanted to sigh with relief, but didn’t dare.
The car was silent. He pulled out his phone and entered the brats’ livestream, but when he clicked on it, his screen was still black.
Zhu Bocheng could only sigh and put it away.
His only hope right now was that those brats had good luck and were fine, but then he thought about how he had seen on the livestream earlier those brats burn half of the talismans he had kindly prepared for them.
He almost spat out a mouthful of blood at the thought. He remembered that idiot, Wang Xuewen, in particular, and was prepared to find him later. As long as those brats didn’t die, he would definitely teach them an unforgettable lesson.
Zhu Bocheng was mulling over his thoughts, when Chi Shuyan’s eyes flashed and she suddenly called out, “We’re here.”
“Here? Sister Shuyan?” Zhu Bocheng was stunned. There was no GPS in this place at all. He looked at the wilderness outside the window that was so black he wouldn’t be able to even see his fingers. Forget reaching King Ying’s; if it wasn’t for Sister Shuyan pointing the way, he wouldn’t even be able to tell what direction it was.
When Qi Zhenbai heard Chi Shuyan’s words, his cold, hard face suddenly turned serious too. He took the lead and strode out of the car on his long, lean legs. His deep phoenix eyes were biting cold and sharp, and his thin lips were pursed into a straight line. He surveyed their surroundings and frowned slightly.
Chi Shuyan immediately got out of the car and hummed, then led the way to the tomb entrance.
Zhu Bocheng was a little nervous, especially when he remembered what Sister Shuyan had said before about this place being a turbulent burial mound and not a tomb. The more he looked at the pitch black surroundings, the more sinister the air felt, and the birds crying out everywhere made him jump in fright.
Qi Zhenbai, on the other hand, was very calm, without the slightest hint of panic in his eyes. Chi Shuyan tilted her head and looked at the expression of the man next to her, impressed by his courage.
As Chi Shuyan walked toward the tomb entrance, her eyebrows knitted more and more. Although Zhu Bocheng was afraid, he was worried about the lives of those brats. Seeing Sister Shuyan frown and stare at the entrance without speaking, he asked anxiously, “Sister Shuyan, aren’t we going to go in and save them right away?”
Chi Shuyan narrowed her eyes and said, “Let’s not be hasty. Step aside first! I’ll break the array at the entrance first, otherwise, we won’t be able to get out even if we go in!”
Zhu Bocheng and Qi Zhenbai immediately made way, while Chi Shuyan first threw out a high-level Exorcism Talisman with a serious face. The talisman glowed white and flew toward the entrance of the cave, colliding with a black mist screen that appeared out of thin air at the entrance. She then bit her fingertip, drew a blood talisman in the air, and sent it in. “Break!”
The tomb and the ground suddenly shook. A red light shone brightly at the entrance, and the screen of mist which had just manifested instantly shattered.
On the side, Zhu Bocheng gaped wide enough to fit a duck egg in his mouth. Although he had always known that Sister Shuyan was the real deal, he only knew that the talismans she drew were particularly useful, and nothing else. Now, watching Sister Shuyan casually stir up something comparable to a sci-fi blockbuster with a wave of her hand, Zhu Bocheng was utterly shocked.
This was what a true f*cking Celestial Master should be like!
Although Qi Zhenbai didn’t speak, his eyes on the woman in front of him also darkened a bit.
“We can enter now! But are the two of you sure you want to go in?” Chi Shuyan asked.
Before Zhu Bocheng could speak, Qi Zhenbai decisively and succinctly spat out, “Go in!”
Chi Shuyan understood Qi Zhenbai’s intent. She gave the two men a few high-level Exorcism Talismans and Thunder Light Talismans before they entered, just in case. She said, “There’s no time to lose; we’ll go in right away. The two of you just follow me and don’t fall behind. As long as they still have the talismans I gave them, I’ll be able to track them down and find them immediately.”
Having obtained Sister Shuyan’s precious talismans, Zhu Bocheng immediately pocketed them as if they were peerless treasures, and didn’t forget to covet the talismans in Zhenbai’s hands. Hearing Sister Shuyan say she could find them immediately, he was overjoyed and hurriedly said, “Sister Shuyan, I’ll listen to whatever you say!”
Qi Zhenbai also decisively put the talismans in his pocket and hummed in agreement.
