Chi Yu'er was slightly stunned. "Ah? The Huoyun Sect's treasure house?"
"yes!"
Gu Yuan seemed very excited and said, "I haven't thought about this for the past few days. The Huoyun Sect was a very powerful force. Now that it no longer exists here, the things in their treasure house should still be there! Shouldn't we go find their treasure house first?"
Gu Yuan was extremely excited, as this was exactly the time when he was short of money!
If I could get my hands on the Huoyun Sect’s treasure trove, I would be truly rich!
"Brother Gu Yuan, if you are short of money, I can actually give it to you."
Chi Yuer looked at Gu Yuan and said seriously.
"Forehead……"
Gu Yuan was suddenly speechless. Are you kidding me? How could the treasure house of Huoyun Sect not be attractive?
"I still want things in the treasure house more. Only then will I have a sense of accomplishment when I get them through my own efforts, and I will be more satisfied!" Gu Yuan said seriously.
The fish in the pond were at a loss whether to laugh or cry.
"Hey, your name is what, Wang Si, right?"
Gu Yuan turned to look at Wang Si, who was kneeling on the ground and trembling, and asked.
"Yes, sir, my name is Wang Si." Wang Si replied quickly.
"Um, do you know the location of your Huoyun Sect's treasure house? Tell me!"
"My lord, the sect's treasure house is the big secret of our sect. I am just a servant and don't know these secrets at all." Wang Si said with a bitter face.
"That's what you said!"
Gu Yuan nodded, then looked at Chi Yu'er and said in a flattering manner, "Yu'er, now it's up to you. Can you help me find the location of the Huoyun Sect's treasure house? I think with your strength, it will be easy to find it."
Chi Yu'er shook her head speechlessly and said, "It seems that Brother Gu Yuan is also a money-grubber!"
Gu Yuan scratched his head and said, "You are the daughter of a wealthy family, with the power of your family and sect behind you. How can you understand the difficulties faced by people like us who have no background and no strength? Without resources, we have no way to practice and no strong strength. You don't understand this."
Chi Yu'er was slightly stunned, looking at Gu Yuan's somewhat thin face, "If he hadn't been expelled from the clan back then, he should have already reached at least the Spirit King level..."
Chi Yu'er pursed her lips and said, "I'm sorry, Brother Gu Yuan."
Gu Yuan smiled, patted Chi Yuer's head, and said, "Why apologize? I just felt this way, and I didn't mean anything else."
Gu Yuan's intimate gesture made Chi Yuer smile, and she felt happy in her heart.
"Okay, okay, I get it. Wait a minute, I'll look for it."
Chi Yuer closed her eyes and mobilized her soul power to gradually spread it out in all directions. Gu Yuan, standing beside Chi Yuer, could clearly feel a breathtaking pressure. This was the terrifying aspect of the Spirit Emperor.
Even if it is not directed at oneself, the terrifying aura alone is enough to make one's heart tremble.
After a few breaths, Chi Yuer opened his eyes with a hint of smile in them.
"Found it?" Gu Yuan asked in surprise.
Chi Yu'er nodded and said, "Not only did I find it, I also seem to have discovered something interesting."
"Hmm? Anything interesting?"
Looking at the smile in Chi Yuer's eyes, Gu Yuan instinctively felt that things seemed not simple.
"Haha, Brother Gu Yuan, everyone here hasn't left yet. I just felt at least a dozen auras hidden somewhere underground. I think that should be the location of the treasure house." Chi Yuer said.
"Huh? There are still people who haven't left?"
Gu Yuan was slightly surprised and said, "This place is so eroded by demonic energy, yet there are still people who haven't left? Aren't they afraid of death?"
Chi Yuer glanced at Wang Si and said, "Ask him again. He probably has something he hasn't said yet."
Wang Si's face turned pale instantly.
"Tsk tsk tsk, it looks like you haven't told the truth yet, right?"
Gu Yuan walked in front of Wang Si, and the red flame in his hand appeared directly in his palm, and then he approached Wang Si.
Feeling the temperature of the red flame, Wang Si began to sweat on his forehead.
"Sir, don't kill me!"
Gu Yuan looked at Wang Si and said, "Tell me everything you know honestly, otherwise, this flame of mine won't recognize you."
"I'll tell you, I'll tell you! Sir, please don't kill me!" Wang Si kowtowed directly to Gu Yuan.
"Hurry up and tell me! I can let you go if you tell me. Or I will ask you a question and you will answer it. Which way do you want?" Gu Yuan asked.
"Excuse me, sir. I will tell you everything I know, sir!" Wang Si said hurriedly.
"Okay! Then let's do this. I ask questions, and you answer honestly."
Gu Yuan cleared his throat and asked, "Why haven't you left yet? Although this place was once your sect, it has been corroded by demonic energy and the situation is quite serious. Why would a mere spiritualist like you stay here and not leave?"
Wang Si quickly said, "It was Elder Feng who wouldn't let me leave!"
"Hmm? Elder Feng? He doesn't let you leave, so what have you been doing here these days?" Gu Yuan asked curiously.
"Your Excellency, I will be responsible for keeping watch here for the next few days. Once someone comes, I will need to quickly notify the elders." Wang Si said.
"Oh? So the elder you mentioned is somewhere underground?"
"Yes, my lord!"
"Then the question is, what are they doing underground? Do you know?" Gu Yuan continued to ask.
"I don't know. I have been assigned to the ground these days and am only responsible for keeping watch. I don't know anything else. Besides, there are people guarding below and they don't allow me to go in." Wang Si said.
"That's really strange! The Huoyun Sect is gone, so what are those guys still doing hiding underground? Could it be that they have some good stuff?" Gu Yuan murmured in guesswork.
"Brother Gu Yuan, let's go down and take a look and we'll know!" said Chi Yuer on the side.
"How strong are the underground people? There shouldn't be a figure like the Demon Emperor, right?"
Gu Yuan asked with a wry smile.
If such a person existed, Gu Yuan would have to take Chi Yuer and run away.
"Haha, no, no, the strongest aura underground is only that of the Spirit Lord. There is not even a Spirit King. My perception will not be wrong!" Chi Yuer said with a smile.
"That's good!"
Gu Yuan nodded, breathed a sigh of relief, and said, "Wang Si, where is the entrance to the passage? Take me there!"
"this……"
A trace of fear flashed across Wang Si's face. "Sir, I...if the elders find out about this, I'll be dead! They'll definitely kill me!"
Gu Yuan tilted his head and said, "But if you don't take me with you now, you will die!"
Then Wang Si's face became even paler.
Gu Yuan shook his head helplessly. "Forget it, forget it. I won't treat you unfairly. Here, these are all I have on me. Take them. They'll be enough for you to use for a while."
Gu Yuan took out the last few gold coins and elixirs from his space ring and said, "You don't need to follow me. Just lead me to that location and you can leave directly."
