Chapter 377: His Concept of Combining with the Four Symbols (1)

After killing the Black Grade man, Lin Yan looked around unintentionally. Then, he went to the villa’s door, pushed it open, and walked out. He casually closed the door.

After a long while, a soft vibration suddenly came from under the floor of the villa.

Then, a large piece of the floor was pushed up. A woman with blood at the corner of her mouth and a slightly swollen face popped out. It was Cheng Yu’er.

She looked around and saw the Black Grade man’s corpse lying weakly on the ground beside the chair. Her pupils constricted slightly.

Then, she revealed a look of relief and sorrow. “He’s dead. It’s good that he died just like that. Old Cheng, you have been avenged! Oh no…

“I missed it! What a thick thigh! I missed it for nothing!”

To be able to kill a Black Grade Noble Realm expert so easily, he was at least at the Jade Grade Noble Realm!

If she could cling to his thigh, she would not have to worry about her safety!

Cheng Yu’er pricked up her ears and listened carefully. Then, she immediately jumped out from under the floor and carefully covered it.

This was the special basement where she and her master had hidden the treasures together. She had heard it clearly underground just now. What the Black Grade man wanted was a figurine. She remembered that Old Cheng had indeed brought back a half-human jade statue half a year ago. It was a woman. Although it was only half a body, it was lifelike.

Old Cheng even tried to enter the black market to sell the stolen goods, but the other party’s price was too low, so he didn’t agree. He took it back and threw it in the warehouse to eat dust.

However, she did not expect that Old Cheng would lose his life because of such a useless little thing.

Cheng Yu’er sighed slightly, but her figure was not slow. She immediately rushed up the stairs to the top of the building.

Although she was a rather famous female cat burglar, she had never revealed her appearance. During the intense battle just now, she was seen by the Black Grade man and Young Master Teng.

As a hidden thief, if her true identity was accidentally discovered, she would have nowhere to escape!

Therefore, she had to kill them to silence them!

With a few steps, Cheng Yu’er disappeared at the end of the stairs.

Lin Yan did not reveal himself. Instead, he walked to the place where Cheng Yu’er had jumped up and opened the floor again.

Although he felt that the figurine was most likely unrelated to the Thousand Buddhas Cave and the Earth Abyss Pure Land, it was still a clue. He naturally would not let it go easily.

Therefore, he pretended to go out just now, but in fact, after he went out, he found a corner. The Black Tortoise Divine Armor covered his aura and he jumped back to the roof of the villa. From the balcony door that was opened from the roof, he came in again and went down to the hall to watch Cheng Yu’er’s series of actions.

Lin Yan opened the floor door and walked down the secret passage.

The surroundings were dark and dim. The secret passage was narrow, and there was a pungent smell. As Lin Yan walked, his eyes narrowed slightly. He could tell that this smell was clearly gunpowder!

He slowly walked down. At the bottom of the corridor was a spacious warehouse. There were several Night Pearls embedded on the top, emitting a cold light.

There were a few huge wooden barrels at the side of the warehouse. Lin Yan went up to take a look. They were filled with pitch-black gunpowder.

“It seems that Cheng Yu’er’s goal for rushing down was not to hide, but to perish together with them…”

Lin Yan subconsciously moved further away. Cheng Yu’er would probably be back soon, so Lin Yan walked over and rummaged through the cabinets. Soon, he found the jade statue of a woman similar to what he had seen in the Goddess Temple.

However, this jade statue had half of its body. The lower half of its body was broken, but it was clear and black. It was much worse than the jade statues of women that Lin Yan had seen back then.

“As expected, it’s a goddess statue…”

Lin Yan recalled that Wang Yue had once said that the statue of the Goddess was actually transformed from a real person. It was a plan called the Goddess Transformation. However, this plan had failed and was abandoned. This jade statue was probably just a pitiful woman who had transformed into a jade statue.

“Old Qin, take a look.”

He grabbed Old Qin out of his pocket and threw him on the jade statue, letting him touch it up and down. Old Qin also shook his head. “It’s just an ordinary jade statue.”

Although it was an ordinary jade statue, Lin Yan was not prepared to let it go. The last time he was in the Turtle Spirit Holy Mother’s body, he felt that he had heard Xiaozhi’s voice in a daze. He had been thinking of a way to meet her.

Later on, he used the Heavenly Eight Dragons Array to fight that Divine General. He gained a lot of insights and had many strange ideas that needed to be tested. Among them, there was a way to communicate with Xiaozhi.

And this jade statue seemed to be related to Xiaozhi’s miniature jade statue. It could be used as a prop for his experiment.

Lin Yan looked around and found a hemp rope. He tied the tall jade statue around and carried it on his back.

After doing all this, there was a slight creaking sound from above again. Cheng Yu’er had returned!

Lin Yan’s Black Tortoise Divine Armor naturally couldn’t cover such a huge jade statue. However, this time, he didn’t have to walk from above. The Black Tortoise Divine Armor’s Mountain Splitting function was activated. He directly burrowed underground and easily disappeared from the underground warehouse.

Cheng Yu’er closed the floor and quickly crawled down. She avoided the few large barrels of gunpowder and crawled into the pile of goods to search back and forth.

“I remember that it was here… No, no! Someone came in!”

Cheng Yu’er’s eyes widened. The box in front of her was already open, as if it was mocking her.

She clearly remembered that the half of the jade statue was placed here!
