Chapter 220.2
The more it spread, the more outrageous the rumors became!
However, these wild rumors were incredibly popular and spread across the entire world, attracting waves of adventurers from the rivers and lakes to Great Xia.
Many forces couldnt help but send people to investigate.
Chaos began to stir in Great Xia, increasing the pressure on the imperial court.
Within the Great Luo imperial palace.
Song Yufei floated in and, looking at the Great Luo Emperor busy with state affairs, got straight to the point: The news about the tomb of the Heavenly Khan, it was you who secretly had it spread, wasnt it?
The Great Luo Emperor was taken aback and asked, Fairy, why would you say that?
Song Yufei replied, When the rumor started spreading, I felt something was off, so I investigated in secret and discovered it was related to Great Luo. Thats why I came to ask!
Indeed, it was my doing! The Great Luo Emperor admitted openly.
Why would Your Majesty do such a thing? Song Yufei inquired.
Do I even need to explain that?
The Great Luo Emperor said with a smile: Now, all the nations under heaven are suffering from the calamity of ice disasters, with their national power severely weakened, while Great Xia stands alone in its splendor! Great Luo and Great Xia are neighbors, so a battle between us is inevitable in the future! I cant just watch them grow stronger and swallow Great Luo, can I?
Thats why I had someone spread some rumors to cause them some trouble! Now it seems the effect is significant. The Emperor of Great Xia must be at his wits end, haha
Song Yufei opened her mouth as if she wanted to say something but found herself speechless.
From the standpoint of the Great Luo Emperor, he hadnt done anything wrong.
But the one who suffered was the Emperor of Great Xia!
How could she face him after this?
Fairy, you must know!
The Great Luo Emperor presented a piece of information, saying with pride: In fact, I only put in a little effort when I started this scheme, never expecting such a huge effect!
What does this tell us? It shows that many people are adding fuel to the fire. Many want Great Xia to fall! After this, even if Great Xia doesnt collapse, it will certainly be severely weakened, hahaha!
Song Yufei looked at the information and sighed deeply.
She hoped that Great Xia would successfully weather this storm.
At this time, due to the rumors about the tomb of the Heavenly Khan, over a hundred thousand people had flooded into Great Xia in search of the treasure.
As the night deepened, many people leaned against the tree roots and fell asleep.
Only the boy continued to keep watch.
The firewood in front of him crackled as it burned, monotonous and boring, making him feel a bit sleepy, and he gradually closed his eyes.
But just then, there was a loud bang in the clear sky.
A terrifying purple thunderbolt descended from the heavens, striking Wanshou Mountain!
Boom!
The massive sound woke up the treasure hunters in the mountain.
Whats happening?
Such a loud noise?
I was finally having a good dream, and it woke me up!
Just then, two more terrifying thunderbolts descended from the sky, striking Wanshou Mountain, and it seemed they were hitting the same spot.
Why would that place get struck by lightning? Is there something special there?
Lets go check it out; there might be treasure!
Stop talking, lets go!
They all rushed toward the direction of the thunderbolts with curiosity.
Upon arriving, they found that the three thunderbolts had struck a small mound, creating a huge stone cave.
The entrance to the cave was dark and foreboding, like a mouth ready to swallow someone, bottomless and leading to an unknown place.
Whats inside here? Could it be the entrance to a tomb?
Lets go in and find out!
They left some people outside to keep watch while the rest swarmed in.
