Chapter 118 - 118 Secret Room Again?
118 Secret Room Again?
Kong Rui was about to step forward when she heard Chao Bai’s voice again. “Don’t move! Someone’s here!”
Kong Rui froze, but she didn’t sense any movement beside her.
She was about to ask a question when she suddenly realized that Yin Ling’s expression had changed slightly.
In the next moment, a black shadow appeared in front of Yin Ling.
“Why are you here?” Yin Ling was obviously surprised by the person’s arrival, but he quickly restrained his emotions.
That person chuckled. “The queen was worried that the Li family would change their minds, so she ordered me to help you.”
Yin Ling’s expression turned ugly. It was obvious that he was dissatisfied with the queen’s distrust, but it was the queen’s arrangement after all, so he couldn’t refuse directly.
“Don’t let the Li family find out,” Yin Ling said coldly.
The black shadow sneered again. “Don’t worry! With my cultivation level, no one will discover me if I don’t appear!”
After the black shadow finished speaking, it disappeared in the next moment.
Kong Rui watched as Yin Ling became even angrier. He clenched his fists and cracked his knuckles.
Kong Rui wasn’t interested in the rivalry between the queen’s people. It would be best if these people fought to the death. Kong Rui would be happy to see it.
After leaving Yin Ling’s courtyard, Kong Rui walked towards the Li family’s ancestral hall.
Along the way, Chao Bai’s voice rang in Kong Rui’s ears from time to time, reminding her where to avoid danger.
When they were close to the ancestral hall, Kong Rui asked, “Where are you?”
Kong Rui could sense that Chao Bai was beside her and was constantly observing her movements, but she couldn’t sense Chao Bai’s aura at all. She didn’t even sense any spiritual energy fluctuations!
How unbelievable!
How high was Chao Bai’s cultivation level?
Chao Bai’s voice sounded again. “Up here.”
Kong Rui froze. Then, she looked up and stared blankly at the Yin-Yang Umbrella.
After a while, she realized that Chao Bai was moving in the sky above the Li family’s courtyard.
“I’m going into the ancestral hall now. If…” Before Kong Rui could finish, Chao Bai stopped her.
“The thing you’re looking for isn’t in the ancestral hall,” Chao Bai said softly.
Kong Rui was stunned for a moment. Then, she asked in a low voice, “Do you know what I’m looking for?”
Chao Bai sighed softly. “I don’t know! But there’s nothing in the Li family’s ancestral hall now!”
Hearing Chao Bai’s words, Kong Rui understood that the Li family’s patriarch must have moved all the treasures after the ancestral hall was destroyed.
“Do you know where everything is hidden?” Kong Rui asked again.
Chao Bai touched the stone on his chest and said softly, “You only thought of asking me now?”
Upon hearing Chao Bai’s question, Kong Rui said with frustration, “I was wrong! I should have asked you first!”
Chao Bai finally seemed satisfied. “There’s a courtyard two doors down on your right. It’s in the secret room in that courtyard.”
Kong Rui looked to her right in a daze. The courtyard two doors down on her right seemed to be the queen’s old residence in the Li family.
In other words, that was where the Li family’s treasures had been transferred to?
Yet another secret chamber!
Why did the queen like secret chambers so much?!
Kong Rui took a deep breath and prepared to walk towards the secret chamber.
Chao Bai asked, “What are you looking for?”
“A secret technique.” This time, Kong Rui didn’t hide anything and told Chao Bai directly.
Chao Bai paused for a moment before saying, “Then go take a look! We might be able to find what you want!”
Hearing that Chao Bai actually didn’t stop her, Kong Rui was actually a little caught off guard.
She didn’t hesitate for long and quickly walked towards the courtyard.
After walking into the courtyard, Kong Rui suddenly felt a powerful spiritual energy.
What was going on?
