Shen clan.

"Patriarch, there is news from Akabane Castle that the descendants of the royal family may have appeared."

After the news was reported, the man in the hall changed his expression:

"Have you made any arrangements?"

Upon hearing this, the visitor said:

"The four of them went to Akabane Castle to inquire about the royal family's information and were overly cautious. When they left the city, they headed in the direction of the royal family's ruins."

After a pause, the visitor said:

"Based on the resources they exchanged for information, most of them have the aura of the Lower Realm. In addition, the aura of two of the four people is hidden and cannot be detected. Judging from the other two servants who accompanied them, they are also from the Lower Realm."

"In order to ensure that this matter has the greatest certainty, we have dispatched sixteen Dao-controlling realm masters and four Dao-casting realm masters to go there in advance and wait for the four to arrive."

After the visitor finished speaking, he waited for the man to speak.

"So he hid in the lower realm?"

The man spoke softly:

"You've been hiding for so many years, you're really patient."

"But coming here now can be just the right thing to do for my son."

After a pause, the man said:

"Tell the people you send to not to make any surprises. Let's see if they can open the ancient coffin of their royal family."

"If you can open it, then take action."

"Don't worry, Patriarch. I have already reminded you about this matter." The visitor nodded.

At this time, the man raised his hand and took out something, saying:

"If you don't remove the roots, there will be endless troubles. Give them a chance to struggle, let them call for help, follow the clues and wipe out everything."

To call someone is to send a message.

And communication, in the end, is also a flow of power.

Although this device has no use for attack or defense, it can be used to follow the message.

Wherever they are, most methods of sending messages for help will involve the person receiving the message.

Some things, once done, must be done thoroughly.

There will be absolutely no future troubles!

The visitor took the item and asked again. After being told that there was nothing else, he got up and left.

The man soon stopped caring about it.

They all need to hide in the lower realm, so you can imagine their strength.

For a descendant of the royal family, the secret of the ancient coffin is just a piece of cake and not worth paying too much attention to.

........

"It looks like it's not too far away."

In mid-air, Gu Chen held a jade talisman in his hand, pretended to compare, and then pointed forward.

On the side, Huang Zhan looked in the direction Gu Chen pointed.

The sight is quite desolate, far from the prosperity we had seen along the way, and the desolation is clearly palpable.

"Has it become like this?"

Huang Zhan sighed deeply, his words full of regret.

According to the information mentioned in the jade talisman.

When the royal family was at its peak, they were able to rank in the upper middle position in the entire Lanqing world.

In the Lanqing world where many powerful forces exist, it is clear that such a thing can happen.

However, at this moment, the desolation before my eyes and the records in the message are completely different scenes.

The former glory is gone, and the past prosperity is gone.

"There, there is a statue."

At this time, Huang Jiuzhao spoke.

As his eyes got closer, he could see a tall statue that gradually became clearer.

Huang Zhan also stared away.

The statue is well-preserved, standing tall above the ground, with a stern and lifelike face. On its chest, there is a word "Emperor", which implies a unique sense of dominance.

Huang Zhan showed excitement on his face. He took a deep breath and said to Huang Jiuzhao:

"This is the ancestor of our royal family."

Huang Jiuzhao nodded seriously, and then said:

"Looking at the statues of our ancestors, I seem to feel a special resonance."

Huang Zhan glanced at Gu Chen, and then said to Huang Jiuzhao:

"Although you and your ancestors are related by blood, you still need to choose a good tree to live on."

After that, Huang Zhan said to Gu Chen:

"We are grateful to you for bringing us here to see the statue of our ancestors. If there is anything you need from the ancient coffin, please just ask. Our royal family will not hesitate to give it to you."

Gu Chen heard this and shook his head and smiled:

"Since it belongs to your royal family, it should belong to your royal family. The things in the ancient coffin can play the greatest role in the hands of your royal descendants."

The mission only mentioned opening the ancient coffin, but did not mention taking it away or obtaining it.

The relationship between the royal family and the master is pretty good, so how could I take away something that belongs to them?

Huang Zhan looked at Gu Chen.

He could sense that Gu Chen was serious about what he said.

For a moment, Huang Zhan had only one feeling in his heart.

Bring them here without asking for anything in return.

In fact, his royal family owed too much.

"Let's find a way to open the long coffin first." Gu Chen turned his attention back to the front.

The flying boat stopped temporarily, and Gu Chen's thoughts and systematic exploration covered the space ahead.

Upon seeing this, Huang Zhan gathered his thoughts, released his mind, and sensed forward.

Behind, far away.

Du Niansheng's thoughts fell near the statue, and soon a look of satisfaction appeared on his face:

"After following you for so long, I can finally have some unexpected things happen."

Unless something unexpected happens, he is secretly wondering whether his intentional creation of a small accident will backfire.

"But it just stopped. Could it be that it discovered something?"

Looking at the flying boat that Gu Chen and his group had stopped, Du Niansheng felt a little suspicious and surprised.

Although it is not certain who is behind this at the moment, what is certain is that this method is definitely extraordinary.

Although he could see through it, it would be difficult for an ordinary person to do so. Even finding any clues was a very difficult task.

If the opponent's disciples can discover something, then their strength...

At the same time Du Niansheng guessed.

Gu Chen also finished his investigation, looked at Qin Li, and said:

"Junior sister, have you found anything?"

Qin Li shook her head:

"Brother Gu, have you found anything?"

Gu Chen also shook his head:

"I didn't find it either. It's different from what I expected. There doesn't seem to be anyone else around here. It's actually eerily quiet."

He used the system to explore the statue and the surrounding space, but did not detect any information about people.

According to past experience, as long as a person is in the space explored by the system, even if his figure and breath are hidden, he can still be detected by the system.

But right now, this is not shown on the system side.

"Is this too cautious?"

A thought flashed through Gu Chen's mind.

But the next moment he threw this thought out of his mind.

In battle, you should be reckless when necessary; in other aspects, it is never a bad thing to be cautious.

Have a mental expectation that bad things won’t happen, and even if they do, you won’t be unable to react.

"Let's go."

Gu Chen started the flying boat again and approached the statue.

When they were about thirty feet away from the statue, the flying boat and the figures of the group disappeared from the outside world.

"No!"

Just as the flying boat disappeared into the outside world and got closer to the statue, Qin Li suddenly spoke in a serious voice.

Gu Chen's expression changed almost immediately after Qin Li's voice fell:

"Oh no! We've found a thief's den!"
