Chapter 412 - Xuanyuan Zi
After determining what she was going to do next, Xiao Qianhan asked Xiao Miao to pass a message to him while she continued to cultivate.
When she opened her eyes again, it was Zheng Yun who called her.
"Xiao Qianhan, wake up, someone is here, we are probably going to participate in the selection. Did you remember what I told you yesterday? "We can't be chosen by any means. Although the people chosen might survive, I heard that they are all suffering greatly, and no one can survive past three years." Zheng Yun was afraid that Xiao Qianhan didn't hear it, hence he was worried and exhorted a few more things.
Xiao Qianhan smiled and nodded, "Mn, I'll remember it."
"As long as you remember."
Before being driven into the water, Xiao Qianhan looked at the water. There was something strange about the water, her understanding of the poison could be said to be very deep, so with just a glance, she could understand the strangeness of it. There was a medicine in the water that could make people lose their will very quickly, but it was not that they were unconscious, it was that they had lost their consciousness like puppets in a certain amount of time, and would not be able to remember what happened within two hours.
Xiao Qianhan secretly took the antidote pill, and then secretly sent Xiao Miao to deliver the antidote to Yun Mojin and the others. She had disguised herself with Yun Mojin and the others. If she did not have any special medicine, it would be impossible to wash her off, and she could not be discovered. Thus, when she entered the water, she did not have any worries at all.
"Wash yourself clean! Then go and change! Don't even think about doing anything to yourselves. If you dare to do anything to me, don't even think about walking out of here alive! " Someone threatened them expressionlessly at the edge of the pool.
After a few days of dark, all of the women's wills had been destroyed, and they were all crying as they rubbed their bodies.
Roughly an hour later, all the women had put on clothes of the same color and walked out in a line with their waist-length hair hanging down to their waists.
All of them had no expression on their faces, and even their breathing was surprisingly consistent. Seeing that, Xiao Qianhan understood that their medicinal effect was working, she had also disguised herself, and on the surface, she looked no different from the others, it was completely the same. Someone checked them one by one, and only after confirming that their minds were under control did she nod her head in relief.
Those few middle-aged women also began their conversation without fear of being overheard.
"These women this year don't look that great. There isn't anyone that is too outstanding. I wonder if the Young Lord will be able to get a good impression of them."
"They're all virgins anyway. I just found out that a few of them aren't virgins. They've already been dealt with."
"That's true. It's fine as long as these girls are virgins. The Young Lord should be able to catch a glimpse of a few pretty girls." There aren't many females in Demon Heart Valley who are of the same age as us anymore, looks like I'll have to go out and capture them in two years. "
Xiao Qianhan had clearly heard their conversation, and there wasn't the slightest change in her expression. However, she secretly glanced at Zheng Yun who was beside her. Like the others, she had already fallen into a state of unconsciousness. She was only a concubine, yet she had to pretend to be a ghost. The backer of this concubine was not simple! There must be some kind of hidden conspiracy!
No rush, let's see what the situation is.
There were no other movements in the surrounding area. Initially, he thought he might be able to make contact with Yun Mojin and the others, but from the looks of it, he probably wouldn't be able to do so. After that, she would react in a random manner.
After walking for a long distance, they finally arrived.
After hearing the order, everyone stopped.
After a short period of silence, someone finally arrived.
All the girls had their heads lowered. Xiao Qianhan had lowered her head as well, so she did not see this Demon Heart Valley's Young Master for the time being.
A pair of sharp eyes swept across each of their faces like a blade, as if they could see the souls of these women after they passed by. After looking at them, he frowned, "All of you, raise your heads and look at me."
At the order, everyone raised their heads.
When Xiao Qianhan saw Helian Zi's appearance, although he did not show it on the surface, his mind was shaken.
"Master knows the young master of Demon Heart Valley?" Qian Zi felt Xiao Qianhan's mind fluctuate, and immediately asked.
"If I did not recognize the wrong person, then a few thousand years ago, I had met him in the Su family. At that time, he was called Xuanyuan Zi and he had once saved my second brother's life. At that time, he had lost a lot of his cold aura. Although thousands of years have passed, I am certain that he is Xuanyuan Zi. " Xiao Qianhan said in a heavy voice.
Qian Zi was shocked, "Could it be … Had he snuck into the Su Clan using an unknown identity? Just to capture the master's second brother? "If that is the case, then this man is truly scheming!"
Xiao Qianhan was suspicious, her second brother had always disliked the fight over power, and was an outspoken person as well. She had a lot of friends by her side, and seldom made eye contact with others, so why would Xuanyuan Zi take him away? She remembered that when the Su Family heard this news, they were extremely shocked, because the Su Family had never interacted with the Demon Heart Valley before.
"There aren't any absolute beauties here. Forget it, I'll pick any five of you to stay for now." Helian Zi frowned, his tone filled with disappointment.
The servants standing at the side weren't surprised by this. This time, the lady was indeed not very satisfactory. He then walked forward and carefully observed these girls. After which, he picked out the women with the appearances of the top five.
"Young master, the rest of the men are being led down."
Helian Zi nodded expressionlessly, "Take him away."
"Yes."
The five people who were selected stayed behind, while the others, including Xiao Qianhan, followed the servants of the Demon Heart Valley and left the room.
He followed the path for a very long time. It was not the same path he had come from, but another unfamiliar path.
Based on the current situation, it was true that none of the non-candidates would be released. Not only would they not be released, but they would also be taken to a very mysterious place.
A large door slowly opened in front of Xiao Qianhan, and even when the heavy and ear-piercing voice entered her ears, no one's expression changed. The effects of the medicine would still last for around an hour.
The back of the gate was not a free world outside, but a deep tunnel.
Another long period of time passed.
In the gloom of the tunnel, the only sound was the sound of their footsteps.
The Demon Heart Valley servants that followed them did not say anything. They were already used to this kind of thing, and were already very familiar with the tunnel.
Xiao Qianhan could clearly feel that they were circling around in the ground, and then, bit by bit, they penetrated into the ground.
Suddenly, they remembered what Xiao Miao had said last night. There was something strange underground, and once it dug into a place, they would no longer be able to dig anymore.
