The smile on Sun Qiang's face froze on its face.
Yue Qi couldn't help but smile. This girl was really adorably domineering! She was unwilling to suffer any loss; this was the Yan Qing he knew.
Seeing his elder brother get the short end of the stick, Sun Gui had no choice but to step in and mediate.
"Yan Qing, you can just tell us what you need."
That's more like it. She wants something tangible, and all that fluff and empty talk can go as far away as possible.
"Make copies of all the information you have about this place. Also, I need to get an advance on the Thunder Essence Pills and Fire Essence Pills."
As soon as she made her request, the disciples of the Sun family immediately showed their anger. This woman was too shameless. Why didn't she just rob her?
Sun Qiang's expression kept changing until Sun Gui pulled him aside, and the two brothers discussed it for a long time.
When she returned, Sun Gui handed her a small wooden box, which, when opened, contained the very pills they needed.
There is also an e-book containing detailed information about their family's collection, a document that is over ten megabytes in size.
"I've given you everything, Yan Qing, can you take out the map now?"
"Of course!" Yan Qing readily pulled out the human skin map and tossed it into Sun Gui's hand.
Sun Gui carefully took it, opened it, and his whole demeanor changed.
"Good, good, good!" He was overjoyed. "In this way, the curse on my Sun family has finally seen a glimmer of hope."
Next, a group of Sun family members went to study the map. The rest of the people returned to their places, and Yan Qing sat down directly with Yue Qi.
Yue Qi was carefully reviewing the materials when Yan Qing immediately shared them with him. She had already skimmed through them before; they were almost entirely in classical Chinese, which she didn't quite understand, so she decided to leave it to a professional.
Yue Qi read very carefully; he had a photographic memory, so he read very quickly. However, the more he read, the more his brows furrowed, eventually forming a tight knot.
"How is it?" Yan Qing also became curious. Yue Qi's expression was so incredibly handsome that it was almost devastating! She couldn't bear to disturb him.
Yue Qi shook his head. "This isn't good." He pointed to the electronic documents and said,
"Most of these records are about the Nine Hells, but the Nine Hells have always been a place that only exists in Taoist legends. We really don't know what it is like in reality."
He sighed and closed the book. "It seems the reason the Sun brothers were so willing to share with us is because there really wasn't anything useful. All things considered, we've actually lost out a bit."
He thought for a moment, then added, "The Nine Hells are one thing, but this Yaksha is mentioned again here. I feel something is amiss."
"In the general public's understanding, the Yaksha exists as a guardian deity in Buddhism. It's said that its duty is to guard the Nine Hells. I wonder if this has anything to do with this 'Azure Dragon Carrying the Coffin' instance."
After his reminder, Yan Qing realized that when she first went to Sun Gui's house, she found that he had decorated it in the style of hell.
She didn't notice at the time, but now that she thinks about it, could it be that Sun Gui also worships Yakshas?
She shared her suspicions with Yue Qi, who confirmed it, saying, "Indeed, there's something strange about his home."
"It seems these two brothers had a trick up their sleeve!"
Wen Jiajia watched the two of them whispering to each other, not knowing what to say, and felt completely uncomfortable.
This Yan Qing, does she feel restless if she doesn't seduce men every day? Even Sun Qiang has become interested in her.
No, she had to think of a way. Sun Qiang's financial resources were currently an indispensable asset to her, and she didn't want to lose him.
Not long after, the Sun family returned.
This time, Sun Qiang seemed much more confident. He pointed to the area shrouded in white mist where they were and said with great certainty,
"The passage is right beneath our feet."
This is the end of the tomb passage. There are walls all around, above, below, left, right, and directly in front of us. Are they going to dig a hole?
At this moment, the four disciples of the Sun family suddenly dispersed and went to a corner of the room, where they started banging and tapping on the ground.
A short while later, someone exclaimed, "Found it!"
"I found it too!"
"Here too!"
"Me too!"
It seems the headquarters is right here.
Sun Qiang announced loudly, "Everyone, please step back a few steps and take precautions. We are about to activate the formation."
With his shout of "Start!", the four of them pressed the button simultaneously.
A series of loud, rumbling vibrations came from beneath my feet, as if a door was slowly opening in the ground; the sound was exceptionally heavy.
Fifteen minutes later, the sound stopped. At the same time, all the white mist on the ground completely dissipated, and a staircase leading downwards appeared where they had been standing.
"This is it." After saying that, Sun Qiang took the lead and walked down, and the rest of the Sun family quickly followed.
Next up was Wen Jiajia, who ran faster than a rabbit.
Yan Qing and Yue Qi were still at the very back. Before they went down, they both made a mark on the ground.
Upon realizing this, the two burst into laughter. Their tacit understanding was truly unparalleled.
After going down, Yan Qing discovered that the place was actually lit, and the light came from the steps beneath their feet.
The steps were long and winding, like a spiral circle with a large, empty space in the middle. Looking down from the steps, the bottom seemed to be invisible.
Everyone instinctively shrank back to the inside of the steps; no one wanted to fall.
After walking huddled together for a few minutes, Sun Qiang finally stepped onto solid ground.
He looked around and found that it was also a long tomb passage. The only difference was that the passage was lit up.
The entire tomb passage, including the floor and walls, was coated with some unknown material that emitted a luminous glow, which was quite magical.
Where is this?
As soon as Yan Qing stepped off the stairs, she felt a bit hot, as if there was a huge furnace there. She immediately took out two small handheld electric fans from her ring and handed one to Yue Qi.
"Come on, cool off." Yue Qi was already sweating.
Wen Jiajia hid to the side and couldn't help but purse her lips.
So dramatic!
Yan Qing glanced at her expression and knew without a doubt that this person was complaining about her. But it didn't matter; let her complain all she wanted, it wouldn't hurt her.
The six members of the Sun family had already scattered to scout ahead, and before long, Yan Qing heard shouts from ahead.
"My God, what is this thing?"
