Chapter 186 The Storm in the Locked Room



Where have you smelled this before?

After reaching the late stage of the Golden Core realm, Xiao Sheng's sensitivity to sensation reached a new peak.

He tried it; within the capital city, he could smell the entire city and hear even the sound of a single insect.

He only frequents two places.

One is the imperial palace, and the other is the Li family's residence.

The Li family certainly doesn't have this smell, so it must be from the palace?

At this moment, Li Xingran discovered the secret room in Huangfu Chuxiong's living quarters.

Li Ting discovered that Huangfu Chuxiong's map was different from any he had ever seen before.

This map shows an extra place on the Cangxuan Continent.

Li Ting circled it with a pen.

Then he took down the map and called Li Xingran and Xiao Sheng over to look at it.

Li Ting pointed to the map and saw that a piece of land had appeared where the Great Yue Kingdom and the Southern Chen Kingdom used to be located.

Li Ting said he had been to that place and was certain that the land marked on this map did not exist there.

But why does Huangfu Chuxiong's map include a place called Qingcang?

"Grand Tutor, once this matter is settled, we'll go there and see for ourselves." Xiao Sheng made the decision without hesitation.

Anyway, traveling 10,000 miles a day is no longer a dream.

Li Xingran also agreed with Xiao Sheng's opinion.

Finally, there's Li Xingran's discovery: the secret room.

Li Ting and Xiao Sheng both walked up to Li Xingran.

Li Xingran opened the door to the secret room.

That smell appeared again.

"Xingran, this scent lingers in this book." Xiao Sheng handed the book to Li Xingran.

Li Ting also leaned over and took a sniff.

"This is the smell of the blood mist in the air the day we killed Huangfu Chuxiong," Li Ting explained, solving the mystery.

“But Grand Tutor, I smelled this scent in the Imperial Palace in the capital. Xingran, you should smell it too.” Xiao Sheng stopped Li Xingran from going in.

Li Xingran stopped and activated her sense of smell.

Li Xingran carefully searched her memory, which stopped on the day Xiao Sheng took her to the palace to visit Consort Chen.

The smell seemed to be wafting from the direction of the Cold Palace.

Interesting. Li Xingran waved her hand and collected the scent into a glass bottle.

Then, using a scraper, he shaved off the wood from the back of the secret room door.

It was put into another bottle.

Whatever Li Xingran thinks in her mind, she will produce in her hands.

The brocade pouch advanced as she progressed in her cultivation.

After doing all this, the three of them entered the secret room.

Several bookshelves, each three meters tall, were placed against the walls of the secret room.

The three of them went to different bookshelves and browsed through them.

These books were all records of witchcraft.

The skills of the Yuexing Sect come from these books.

These books must never be allowed to remain in the world.

But it's not easy to handle right now.

They had no choice but to take them all with them.

In the very center of the secret chamber, there are three eggs, giant eggs.

"Father, have you ever seen an egg like this?" Li Xingran had seen it before, but only in movies.

Li Ting shook his head.

“Xingran, I’ve never met her either,” Xiao Sheng answered himself.

"I've seen it!" Li Xingran tried to appear calm.

[A King of Hell who gives birth without an anus, what kind of plot is this?!]

Why are there giant snake eggs here? Don't you know I hate snakes?

"Oh dear, Teacher Li, this isn't part of my script! Don't worry, these snake eggs pose no threat to you."

I'm not afraid of snake eggs, I just find these cold-blooded reptiles creepy and give me goosebumps!

"It hasn't hatched yet, so it won't affect you. Put this egg in the brocade pouch; there's a small space inside where time stands still."

"The baby snakes will not hatch."

[Next time something disgusting happens, don't let me run into it again. Let Xiao Sheng handle it; he's capable of handling things on his own now.]

"That won't do! He's an emperor of the mortal realm, so noble and imposing!"

[He won't affect your ascension; isn't it only me who can?]

"Okay, okay, I understand, my teacher Li."

Have you found the villain you mentioned?

"Not yet! I've searched through every book in the Three Realms, and this villain's ability is the first of its kind to appear."

[Damn it! Can't there be anyone reliable in the world?]

"Your lucky charm constitution can turn bad luck into good, so Teacher Li, you're indispensable!"

[Give me more merit points! Give me more spirit stones and magical techniques!]

"Okay, I always try my best to fulfill Teacher Li's requests."

"You should leave! Otherwise, I don't know what might happen next."

"Father, Emperor brother, please step back."

Li Xingran stepped forward.

As a result, the three eggs moved.

"I..." (Three thousand words omitted here) Li Xingran used every curse word she knew. As soon as Yama returned to the underworld, he felt his ears burning.

He muttered to himself, "It seems the snake egg has hatched."

“Teacher Li, don’t blame me. If these snake eggs don’t hatch, that person won’t be found. This snake is his magical pet.”

The King of Hell is busy again, so there shouldn't be any major problems with Li Xingran. With her lucky charm constitution, who could possibly take her life?

“Father, Xiao Sheng, one person and one snake. Strike the snake at its vital spot, that’s its Achilles’ heel.”

Under the circumstances, Li Xingran directly called out Xiao Sheng's name.

Xiao Sheng was overjoyed by this call of "Xiao Sheng".

It leaped up and coiled around a newly hatched baby snake.

But this baby snake was bigger than all the snakes Xiao Sheng had ever seen combined! Its eyes were blood red, and it was flicking its tongue.
