Chapter 633: Secrets of the Hou Mansion

Princess, she had just barely escaped a fatal blow amidst the sharp swordplay. A few strands of blue silk at her temples were still severed. Her garment was torn in a large patch, especially on her ba...The old monster Yaohe, with a slightly thin body like a nimble crane, darted quickly through the Hou mansion. 。The unrestrained

Demon Crane monster roared,

and was quickly discovered by the eighth-rank Di You dog. 。But the Direwolf was extremely wary of the Spirit Crane Demon, its front paws pawing at the ground as if wanting to charge forward, but also showing a hint of fear. 。"Come back!" At this moment, Cao Kun saw the sinister look in the demon crane monster's eyes and hurriedly transmitted a voice to Di Youquan, fearing that Di Youquan would rush over. Cao Kun was very clear that Cao Mansion had become a place of right and wrong at this time. 。A single Direwolf is already insufficient to provide adequate defense. 。These are the old friends Zhen Wihou had in Wusheng City. I'm afraid they wouldn't be willing to come to this muddy water for the sake of the Hou Mansion's current predicament. 。At this time, sending Di You out would only lead to more casualties. His primary responsibility now is to protect Cao Bao and Cao Xi'er's safety. As for whether there was any treasure stolen from the manor, the lord had not informed him, nor could he keep it a secret. 。Therefore, Cao Kun made the choice very easily. 。Currently, with Cao Xier, Cao Bao, and several trusted aides, he entered the underground secret chamber. 。

The Zhenwei Hou Mansion wasn't small, but it wouldn't take a golden elixir cultivator long to search it thoroughly.

Even the demon crane monster found the entrance to the underground secret chamber in Zhenwei Hou's mansion. 。The old demon Crane's face flickered between joy and displeasure. Judging by the situation, this secret room entrance should hold years of accumulated wealth from the Marquis of Zhenwei's mansion. However, his reason for coming here wasn't for these riches 。But he believed that it was a treasure that caused these celestial phenomena. Judging from his experience, although the essence of this month seemed to envelop the entire Zhenghou Mansion, it did not appear to originate from here. 。And the entrance to the secret room was heavily guarded with intricate mechanisms and numerous restrictions. Even for him, cracking them would be quite a hassle. Furthermore, too much noise could attract attention. Although the city guard had some old grudges against Lord Zhenwei's family, they also had acquaintances there. However, their relationships weren't close enough for them to intervene willingly. Still, if things got out of hand here, the city guard couldn't just pretend not to know what was going on. They would have to come and take a look. In Wushang City, the city guard was an undeniable force to be reckoned with. 。Once a fight breaks out with the city guard, if too many are killed, it would be embarrassing for the Yuan Ying ancestor who oversees the city. If they truly wanted to, no Jindan cultivator could withstand their wrath. 。After a moment's thought, the Crane Demon turned and continued to search elsewhere. Under the Crane Demon's sweep, the entire Marquis Wēihou's mansion was soon turned upside down. 。even scared off several other malicious cultivators 。

At this moment, the old monster Yaohuhe's heart was filled with growing malice. His body was surrounded by a faint aura of killing intent. Moreover, his reputation preceded him; he had taken many lives in his hands. Ordinary Jindan cultivators dared not provoke him at all. Furthermore, he hadn't encountered any treasures within the Zhenwei Houfu yet. If he were to suffer an unjust disaster, wouldn't it be a great injustice

The Demon Crane monster was also a little puzzled at this time. After searching back and forth in the mansion of Marquis Zhenwei for several times, he couldn't find any clues for a while. 。Even if the essence of heaven and moon poured down, covering such a vast area, with his cultivation level, he couldn't pinpoint where these lunar essences converged. He could only faintly sense them seeping into the ground and gradually sinking downwards. 。Could it be that the treasure is buried underground A thoughtful expression appeared on the old monster Crane Demon's face. 。"Fairy Crane Daoist friend, are you not finding what you want" At this time, a rather feminine voice came drifting down from the night sky. 。“Nán Yúnzi, how come you’re here too” The demon crane monster narrowed its eyes and looked at a strikingly beautiful young woman in red palace attire. 。“If the Taoist Yaohuke can come, why can’t I” Nanyunzi smiled softly, her eyes holding a hint of reproach. 。“Since you’re here, things will be much easier. The anomalies of the Zhenwei Marquis' Mansion are quite peculiar. I passed through this area and walked around a few times, but I couldn't figure out what was going on. Daoist Nanyun, you are well-informed and knowledgeable, you must be able to see the strangeness of this place.” 。The Yāo Hè Old Monster ignored Nányunzi's flirtatious gaze and went straight to the point. 。Although Nan Yunzi's cultivation base is only at the Golden Core stage, he possesses some skills and his strength should not be underestimated. Moreover, his family, the Nan Yun Family, is a major force in the Black Heaven Mountains, with well-informed sources. The old monster of the Crane, therefore, is reluctant to provoke him easily. 。“Oh Even Daoist Yāohè has not found it, it seems this matter is truly difficult.” 。Nan Yunzi's smile faded, and her expression became more serious. 。The rabbit suddenly darted around, measuring the area around Marquis Zhenwei's mansion in a short amount of time. 。"Could it be in the secret room of Zhenwei Hou's mansion" Yaohuke Daoist squinted and asked. 。"It shouldn't be, this omen's appearance, I'm afraid even the people of Zhenwei Houfu are not very clear about it." 。All the magical artifacts and treasures within the secret room were handled by Lord Zhenwei's men, they were inevitably under Lord Zhenwei's control. Lord Zhenwei had been away in the country of Daqi for over twenty years, and the skilled masters within his manor had all left. Although there was an unknown black-clad man, the best treasures would naturally be kept by himself. Cao Sheng had no reason to stay in the manor, especially since something that could cause such a celestial phenomenon was involved. It wouldn't be possible for him to leave here and bring disaster upon the Cao family. 。Cao Sheng hasn't reached that level of stupidity. The only plausible explanation is that Marquis Wenwei Cao Sheng is also unaware. 。"Nán Yúnzi, lotus steps light, swayed her head slightly." 。You, of the Nanyun family, are renowned for your well-connected sources and should surely know every detail. 。"This is Cao Sheng's territory. Could there be something even Cao Sheng himself doesn't know about in his own mansion" Although Yaohuke knew that Nanyunzi wouldn't easily tell him, he still couldn't help but ask with a glimmer of hope. 。"It's not that there isn't, if you want to say that this mansion can't completely control a place, there really is one..." 。"Nan Yunzi chuckled softly, "But it's quite dangerous. Ordinary Jindan cultivators wouldn't dare enter easily." 。"Oh There's another such place I've never heard of it." 。"Could it be that Cao's residence truly hides a dragon's lair"

"Indeed, from what I know, the reason Cao Shengzhi had a feud with Lu Dayong of the city guard was because they were both vying for this very place. You see, it conceals a fire attribute spirit stone vein that is quite substantial." 。Cao Sheng was a cunning and resourceful man. Lu Dayong did not contest him, and Cao Sheng believed he had secured a vein of spirit stones. However, he never expected that this fire-type spirit stone vein would not be as easy to exploit as imagined. After a period of mining, problems arose within the mine. Ten thousand captives brought from Beidi were forced into servitude as miners and transported in batches to the mine. But soon after, chaos erupted within the fire-type spirit stone mine, and all the miners perished overnight. 。It is estimated that throughout the entire town of Wei Houfu, this is the only place that Cao Sheng does not control. 。(Sānqī Zhōngwén)low-grade spirit crystals, adding up to over 300,000.And various rare spirit materials 。“Is this what you call a treasure” Lu Xia Tian glanced at the golden eagle man. 。"There are many valuables insi...
