Chapter 833 Gu Wu Yue Family

At this moment, the pitch-black underground space was filled with smoke, and in the smoke, there was a strange smell of burning.

The most important thing was that after a big fire, the rock walls on both sides of the crack were extremely hot due to the thick smoke. If an ordinary person just touched it, it would probably be burned with a big blister. Even Wang Qian and I walked in the crack step by step, for fear of touching the rock walls on both sides.

After walking for more than half an hour, the two of us finally returned to the original crack.

However, when the two of us stood at the mouth of the crack and saw the scene in the crack, we were all shocked and stunned.

"These beasts..." Wang Qian's face was dull, and then turned into endless anger. Even his fists were clenched and made a "crackling" sound. It was obvious that he was really angry.

I saw that in the cracks, there was a pile of ashes after the snake tide was fully burned. The ashes were waist-deep and were blown everywhere by the wind.

The rock walls on both sides were burned red. Even if you were far away, you could feel the hot air.

"Fuck, these beasts, let's go in!"

After Wang Qian finished speaking, he ran forward with an angry face. I wanted to stop him and wait for the people from the Hundred Flowers Alliance to enter the cave before making plans, but seeing Wang Qian's angry face, I gave up the idea.

However, as Wang Qian and I got closer and closer to the pile of ashes, we suddenly saw that the scene in the entire cave was extremely miserable. The densely packed snakes were almost completely burned, and only a few snakes escaped.

The ashes in the cave were even deeper than those in the cracks, and there was almost no place to stand.

I squinted my eyes and looked around, and then my pupils shrank.

I saw that at the location of the dragon egg, there were three huge snake corpses entangled and curled up together, as if they were using their bodies to protect the dragon egg.

Although the three snakes did not have scales on their bodies, they were large enough. However, at this moment, their bodies had been burned to a crisp, and their postures were forever fixed at the moment before death.

"The dragon eggs should be under the snake corpses." Wang Qian had obviously also discovered the snake corpses and was about to rush into the cave.

But at this moment, a muffled "whoosh" sound suddenly came from the dark fork in the road, followed by a gust of wind.

As soon as the strong wind started to blow, the ashes accumulated in the cave were blown all over the sky, and then they blew along the underground cracks that were connected in all directions. In just a moment, the air was filled with endless ashes, and even Wang Qian and I could hardly breathe.

"They are cleaning up the ashes. This group of people really came prepared!" I cursed inwardly, and then said, "Get out first!"

At this moment, all the cracks near the violent cave were filled with ashes. The ashes were formed by the burning of the snake corpse. The quality is higher than that of paper ashes. After filling the air, just a breath will cause itching in the throat, and in serious cases, it may cause suffocation.

Although both of us could hold our breath for at least 20 minutes, if we rashly entered the cave with ashes flying all over the sky and our vision obstructed, we would most likely be attacked by the Hundred Flowers Alliance.

However, this time we did not retreat too far, but hid in another crack not far away, covered our heads with clothes, held our breath and waited quietly.

After about ten minutes, I opened my clothes and found that the ashes in the crack had become a little lighter, but the strong wind was still blowing, as if someone had placed a high-power hair dryer at the entrance of the cave and was blowing air into the cave.

"Let's go and take a look." I knew I couldn't delay any longer. The wind was blowing from the cave, and the ashes in the cave would be cleaned up before the cracks. If we were late, there would be no dragon eggs, not even hair left.

Wang Qian and I crouched and tiptoed back to the crack.

We saw that the ashes in the crack had been blown away almost completely. However, although there were fewer ashes on the ground, the surrounding rock walls were covered with ashes. Walking in the crack, ashes kept falling from our heads, and it felt like snowing.

When we were halfway there, Wang Qian and I suddenly squatted down and made a gesture to each other to keep quiet.

I saw that some people had already entered the cave. They were all wearing black tights. Some of them were holding guns, some were holding short knives and other weapons. The leader was a middle-aged man in his forties. He was short and fat, with short arms. He looked like a ground jar when he stood there.

The moment I saw him, I even had an illusion that... a pig had stood up!

At this time, he was directing several men in black to break the snake corpse sitting on the dragon egg, and he didn't notice the cracks around it.

"I seem to know this man!" Wang Qian on the side suddenly frowned and said in a low voice.

"Do you know him?" I cast a puzzled look at Wang Qian. Wang Qian thought for a moment and then said, "If I'm not mistaken, this person...should be an elder of the Hundred Flowers Alliance, named Yue Cheng."

"An elder of the Hundred Flowers Alliance?" My pupils shrank when I heard that. I thought, damn, didn't we agree that only two halls would come?

Since there are two halls, the one with the strongest fighting power should be the hall master. Why are even the elders here now?

I swallowed with a 'gulp' sound, then asked in a low voice: "How do you know him?"

"The Yue family is also an ancient martial arts family, specializing in hidden weapons. They are so skilled in using hidden weapons that people can't defend themselves. But ten years ago, the whole family suddenly joined the Hundred Flowers Alliance. There are not many pure ancient martial arts families in this world, so the major families are actually connected. When we were young, we were taken by our parents to practice together. But after so many years, why hasn't he grown taller? He is still the same as when he was a child, short, thick and fat..."

"Ancient martial arts family?" I frowned secretly.

The so-called ancient martial arts family refers to the martial arts families that have been passed down since ancient times. These families basically have their own specialties, and over the past thousands of years, the real core things have not been lost, otherwise the so-called families would have declined long ago.

Moreover, the ancestors of every ancient martial arts family must be extremely glorious. Some may be generals who have made great achievements, and some may be famous knights among the people.

However, how could a dignified ancient martial arts family give up the glory that belongs to their family and suddenly join the Hundred Flowers Alliance?

This is not in line with common sense!

"Could it be that... the Hundred Flowers Alliance promised to honor its promise, or that the Yue family is dissatisfied with the current court?"
