Chapter 199

"What do you mean?"

"You can't go into this tomb!"

Yi Feng rolled his eyes at him and admonished, "Even though danger has occurred once already, can you be sure there is no more danger?"

"Sir, do you mean there are still dangers in this tomb?" Qingshan Lu asked.

"Why else?"

Yi Feng said solemnly,

"Although I can't say exactly what other dangers lie ahead, if you go in, you're a goner for sure!"

Although he didn't know what other dangers awaited, even if it was just a stone falling and hitting the old man's head, Lu Qingshan would probably kick the bucket.

He really couldn't understand why the nice old man was so stubborn and stupid.

After such a huge commotion around this tomb, he was an old man with one foot already in the grave, yet he was obsessed with entering, it was just ridiculous.

Yi Feng's words turned Lu Qingshan's face pale.

Especially the phrase "a goner for sure", which made him break out in a cold sweat.

Seeing Lu Qingshan lost in thought, Yi Feng, afraid the old man still didn't get it, reminded him, "Old man, stop thinking about it. Even if there is no danger inside, you won't get any benefits since others have already taken everything."

"No benefits left and others have taken them already?" Lu Qingshan exclaimed, "Sir, what do you mean?"

"Exactly what I said, what else could I mean?" Yi Feng rolled his eyes.

This was a given. For a tomb like this, not to mention an old bag of bones like Lu Qingshan, even cultivators didn't know how many had gone in already. As an old man, how could he get there faster or fight better than others? Any treasures would have surely been taken by those who got there first.

"I understand. Thank you for the warning, Sir."

Lu Qingshan respectfully nodded to Yi Feng. After sharing a few drinks, he hurried back to Qingshan Gate.

As soon as he returned, Yun Xianque brought two elders with powerful auras.

"Old Lu, let me introduce you. These two are Elders Yang Mu and Yang Sen from my Wind Cloud Valley." Yun Xianque said.The original appearance of this chapter can be found at Ñøv€lß1n.

"Greetings to both elders."

Lu Qingshan nodded in acknowledgement. Judging by their auras, they were the two Martial Venerables Yun Xianque had mentioned.

Beside them, Yang Mu directly refuted, "Lying through your teeth about things being taken. The mechanisms in the tomb have all been triggered. No one could have entered before they were exhausted. Even Martial Venerables would only find death inside. Yet you claim the contents were taken by others? Utter nonsense!"

"Fine, my kind intentions have been seen as ill will. I've nothing more to say!" Lu Qingshan's face also showed anger as he got up to leave.

Pausing briefly as he passed Yun Xianque, he said solemnly, "Miss Yun, I hope you remember the previous lesson. I've said all I can out of consideration for our sects' relationship. Whether to believe me is up to you."

Having said that, Lu Qingshan directly left.

"Hmph, if you don't want an alliance, don't make one. But don't spout nonsense excuses."

Seeing Lu Qingshan's departure, the two Martial Venerables scoffed disdainfully, "Miss, forget Lu Qingshan. We three can go ourselves later. With us two there, we will certainly protect you safely and obtain the artifacts."

However, they were surprised to hear Yun Xianque's reply.

"No, we won't go." Yun Xianque said.

The two Martial Venerables were shocked. "Miss, you can't possibly believe Lu Qingshan's exaggerations? These are three Saint Artifacts!"

"He did not exaggerate!"

Yun Xianque took a deep breath and said solemnly,

"The previous lesson was too bitter. If Uncle Lin had not saved me at the critical moment, I, Yun Xianque, would have become another ghost in that tomb."

She would not repeat the same mistake.

"Miss, how could you believe Lu Qingshan's nonsense? These are three Saint Artifacts! Will you just let them go like this?" Yang Mu said angrily. "Since Miss refuses to go, we two will go ourselves."

"No, you cannot go." Yun Xianque quickly refused.

"Then I'm afraid you can't stop us, Miss. After all, your father gave strict orders to retrieve at least one Saint Artifact." Yang Mu bluntly stated.

"Fine. If you go, I will die before you."

Suddenly, a cold edge appeared as Yun Xianque held a sword to her own neck. Gritting her teeth, she said, "Elders, believe me, I'm doing this for your own good. You are like family to me. I don't want to see what happened to Uncle Lin happen again. If my father blames anyone, I will explain it to him."

"You..."

"Sigh!"

"Foolish girl!"

Yang Mu and Yang Sen let out heavy sighs, faces full of frustration.

They knew Yun Xianque's personality all too well. They could stop her recklessness for now but could not guard her always. If anything really happened, it would be even harder to explain.
