Chapter 89 Huang Zhongtai's Secret (asking for monthly ticket)
Tea time.
Liang Dehai walked out of the stone chamber with a box in his hand.
This time he did not hand it directly to Chu Ning, but opened it from a distance and looked at him with an "I understand you" look.
The corner of Chu Ning's mouth twitched. What do you understand about me?
I was cautious before because I was afraid that you were up to something. Why should I be afraid of this spiritual weapon?
Only those who have not established their foundation can use spiritual weapons.
Inside the box was a one-foot-long sword.
"This flying sword was refined by my ancestor. It is a top-grade spiritual weapon. In the eyes of a foundation-building expert, it is also a rare treasure."
A top-grade spiritual weapon?
Chu Ning thought of the immortal cultivation notes left by the founder of Jiuxuan Pavilion, which he took from the Jiuxuan Pavilion's treasure house. The notes did mention the grade of spiritual weapons.
Spiritual weapons are magic weapons used by foundation-building masters, and top-grade spiritual weapons are extremely powerful, so many foundation-building masters cannot own one in their entire lives.
Even some powerful warriors in the early stage of Jindan will continue to use high-quality spiritual weapons if they have them.
Chu Ning also understood why Liang Dehai took out such a good treasure.
For the Liang family, although this top-grade spiritual weapon is good, it is now just a piece of scrap iron and cannot be controlled.
It is too short to be used as a sword, and too long to be used as a dagger.
Chu Ning took the wooden box and looked at the dagger.
He didn't know if it was a psychological effect or a real feeling, but looking at this dagger gave him a feeling that it was a good thing.
Or maybe both.
Chu Ning got a top-grade spiritual weapon, although he couldn't use it for the time being, and he also knew a teleporter who could travel to the outside world at any time. He was very satisfied with this trip.
"Do you want to continue staying here?"
Chu Ning looked at Liang Dehai. He just glanced at the stone chamber and saw a lot of food in it, enough for Liang Dehai to eat for a while.
"I will guard this teleportation array for Master Ji." Liang Dehai said with a smile.
"It seems that you have hope for your Liang family's ancestors. Okay, just wait here."
Chu Ning could guess the reason why Liang Dehai was unwilling to leave. It was nothing more than that there was still a glimmer of hope that those ancestors of the Liang family who were away were still alive and might be teleported back one day.
When things are going smoothly, people are very rational and will not have these unrealistic fantasies. But when they are in desperate situations, even the slightest possibility will become an expectation.
The latest ancestor of the Liang family has been out for nearly three hundred years. His lifespan at the foundation-building stage had long since ended. If he really broke through to the golden elixir stage, he would have come back directly.
Chu Ning returned to the wellhead. From the time he went down the well to now, it actually took less than a quarter of an hour.
The coronation ceremony of the previous dynasty was still going on, and Chu Ning did not stop his digging, but continued his search.
The search range gradually moved from the harem to some palaces in front.
Chu Ning stopped in a side hall, not because he found any treasure, but because he found an acquaintance.
Inside the side hall, a young man was tied up and four guards were lying on the ground.
"Brother Le, I'm here to save you."
The moment the four guards fell, Huang Xuan immediately walked towards Jin Le, who was immobilized, and untied the ropes on Jin Le.
The one who saved him was Huang Xuan.
"When I was outside the palace gate, I saw you, Brother Jinle, and I knew that my father must have captured you to threaten Brother Chu."
Huang Xuan untied the rope for Jin Le while explaining the situation.
Ever since the incident in Daning County, he had rarely communicated with his father because he already knew what kind of person his father was.
Last year, when he was away from home, his mother suddenly fell ill and passed away. His father was heartbroken and stayed in the study alone for three days. The clan members said that his father was an affectionate man, but he knew that this was all an illusion put on by his father.
My mother passed away in a hurry and didn't get to see me for the last time, but she had anticipated this and left me a letter in advance.
In this letter, her mother foresaw that she would die, not because she had already noticed that she was ill, but because she knew that her father would not let her live.
Because my mother knew a huge secret of my father, and now that my father had achieved his ambitions and was about to ascend the throne, he didn't want this secret to be known by anyone.
It was impossible for his father to break through to become a grandmaster, because it was not that he had lost the ability to have children, but that his family line had been completely destroyed.
It is impossible for a disabled person to reach the level of a grandmaster.
Only the mother knows this secret.
Although his mother did not mention in the letter that his father would kill her, Huang Xuan was not a fool. Apart from his father, no one would have the intention to kill his mother.
Once his mother died, his father created an image of a loving father. As long as he didn't take concubines into the harem, the secret would never be exposed, at least not in the short term.
After reading the letter, Huang Xuan felt a chill all over his body. He never expected that his father would be such a heartless and cruel person.
His mother had asked him in her letter to stay close to his father, but he couldn't do that when faced with the man who had murdered his mother. He was afraid that he would not be able to hold back the anger in his heart once he saw this man.
I can only escape and stay away from it.
If he hadn't seen Jin Le being captured this time, he would never have set foot in this palace.
"What's going on?"
Jin Le was a little confused. He had been a little bewildered since the moment he was caught by people sent by Butler Huang.
When he was running away, Instructor Liu told him about the situation. Not only would people from the Wushuang Sect hunt him down, but even Chief Huang would send people to hunt him down.
But Chief Huang is about to ascend the throne and become emperor, why did he want to arrest me?
You're already the emperor, but are you still afraid of Wushuangmen?
"Time is running out. My father wants you to threaten Brother Chu. I'll tell Brother Le the details after we get out. My incense can only maintain its effect on these guards for a quarter of an hour."
Huang Xuan looked a little anxious. Just now he came here with the knockout incense, but was stopped by these four guards. This was also within his expectations. He wanted to lure the four guards forward so that his knockout incense could take effect.
He sprayed the incense on himself, but he had taken the antidote beforehand.
"good."
Jin Le also knew that now was not the time to satisfy his curiosity, so he followed Huang Xuan and walked outside.
"Sir, the master will be very disappointed if you do this."
However, before the two men stepped out of the palace gate, the butler appeared, followed by two generals.
Seeing the housekeeper, Huang Xuan pursed his lips and said, "Uncle Huang, the incident was entirely caused by me. I have already let Brother Chu down. Now that my father has ascended the throne, there is no need to be afraid of the Wushuang Sect. Why should I harm Brother Jin?"
"It's all because Master Chu has grown up too fast. Now Master Chu is the biggest worry for the master."
The butler sighed and waved his hand: "Send the young master back to the palace."
The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!
The two generals behind him stepped forward and said, "Sir, please come with us. Don't make things difficult for us."
"I……"
Huang Xuan was about to refuse when the two generals suddenly fell to the ground. This sudden change stunned the three people present.
"What a coincidence! I didn't expect to run into three acquaintances in such a foreign land."
A playful voice sounded, and Huang Xuan and Jin Le seemed to have thought of something. Their eyes lit up at the same time, and the housekeeper's expression changed instantly.
"Chu...Mr. Chu."
"Brother Chu!"
"Chun Ning?"
The three of them spoke almost at the same time, and the butler turned around to look at Chu Ning who was standing behind him.
"Although they are all acquaintances, some of them make me feel annoying, so I'd better not speak to them."
Chu Ning didn't give the butler a chance to say a second word. A stream of true energy shot out and directly pierced his chest.
This old guy gets angry when he sees it.
"Fuck, what the hell is this? Chu Ning, are you so powerful?"
Jin Le couldn't believe it. Killing people from a distance? It seemed that only the legendary masters could do it.
Is Chu Ning a master?
"What if, like you, you didn't improve your strength but only gained weight?"
In the past two years, Jin Le doesn't look like he's running away at all, and he has even gained a lot of weight.
"I was too lonely, so I married two concubines." Jin Le explained somewhat embarrassedly.
Chu Ning: ...
This guy deserves to die.
"Let me take you out of the palace first."
Being alone, Chu Ning was not worried about his safety at all, and he could enter and exit the palace freely. However, if he brought Jin Le and Huang Xuan with him, he still had to be cautious.
In order to reduce trouble, Chu Ning and Jin Le changed into the clothes of the two guards and followed Huang Xuan.
Because of Huang Xuan's identity, even when he met some guards, he did not step forward. Of course, there were some who came over during that time, but they were naturally dealt with by Chu Ning.
Chu Ning was about to go back after climbing over the palace wall with Jin Le and Huang Xuan. Huang Xuan suddenly gritted his teeth and said, "Brother Chu, I want to tell you something."
"?"
"A secret about my father."
Huang Xuan knew that with his own strength, he would never have the chance to avenge his mother in this lifetime. In his heart, he no longer considered that man his father.
Listening to Huang Xuan telling Huang Zhongtai's secret, Jin Le's mouth opened wide. Is this a secret that a small shrimp like him can know? He always feels like there is a sword hanging over his head at any time.
An interesting expression appeared on Chu Ning's face. It seemed that he could cause trouble for Huang Zhongtai without any action himself.
I believe someone would rather make this secret known to the public.
"I know about this. Take Jin Le and leave the capital first."
After seeing Huang Xuan and Jin Le off, Chu Ning returned to the palace again.
"Old Black, is it true that disabled people cannot build a foundation?"
Chu Ning wanted to make sure that Huang Xuan's mother was not a cultivator, so what she said might not be true.
"Of course. I heard from the old Taoist priest at Sanqing Temple that building a foundation is the foundation of the Tao. It requires a balance between yin and yang. It is difficult for a disabled person to build a foundation."
"It's difficult, but it's still possible?"
"We need some natural treasures to replenish yin and yang, but the old Taoist also said that such natural treasures are extremely precious. Do you think such a small place would have them?"
“That’s right.”
After confirming the answer, Chu Ning returned to the ancient well.
"Liang Dehai, I have good news for you."
