Chapter 95 - Pre-cave Attacks
Ling Xiao's words were a reminder, but it was also a reassurance from them. If it was only them, they would definitely choose to leave after hearing Murong Fu's words, or they would wait for the fog to disappear before deciding on whether to continue moving forward. At least, they wouldn't rashly continue moving forward.
But since Ling Xiao had said so, there was no problem. They believed that Ling Xiao would be able to help them solve whatever problem it was.
With regards to Ling Xiao's decision, Murong Fu couldn't help but widen his eyes. This was the first time he revealed any other expression or expression after coming to a conclusion regarding this matter.
He never thought that Ling Xiao would choose to continue onward. One must know that there were many dangers up ahead, and life and death situations were at stake.
Suddenly, Murong Fu thought back to all of Ling Xiao's previous actions. Not a single time did he lose, and this also proved that he was someone strong enough.
Thinking about it, Murong Fu suddenly wondered if Ling Xiao could pass through this time?
Ling Xiao and the others might not know, but Murong Fu was very clear that the people guarding this place were all the elite members of the Mu Rong family.
These people had already disappeared for dozens of years from the Jianghu, and were previously famous figures, so they were the strongest fighters in the Mu Rong family.
Gradually, Murong Fu couldn't help but lick his lips. His originally cold heart started to burn, he was looking forward to the outcome of this match, see how strong the person who made him despair and see how hope was, and see what ability the so-called powerful family behind him had.
No one knew what Murong Fu was thinking in his heart. At this time, they had all tensed up and were prepared to face any incoming trouble at any time.
He was very clear about the mechanisms and the parts of them. He knew that it was definitely not a problem to lean on the side of the road, and only assassinations in cave could not be avoided.
So for now, those people who wanted to investigate Murong Bo's mausoleum, no matter how fast their reactions were, and how they managed to avoid the mechanisms on the ground, was definitely unable to escape the assassination in the cave.
Murong Fu could still clearly remember the mountain-like pile of corpses that were turned to dust after a fire, disappearing along with the wind.
Ling Xiao did not turn back, but he knew where the danger was. That was why he was constantly on the lookout for Murong Fu's movements.
As long as the footsteps behind him stopped or disappeared, Ling Xiao would immediately order everyone to stop.
But the footsteps behind him following him, meant that Murong Fu was right, as long as he stayed by the side of the road, he would not trigger the traps.
In the end, everyone reached the cave, which was the final passage to the Murong Bo mausoleum.
"It's this cave, right?" Feeling extremely suppressed, the Yue Lao San could no longer hold it in and turned to Murong Fu as he asked.
Hearing that, Murong Fu silently nodded his head.
Ling Xiao squinted, and after looking at the pitch black cave for a few seconds, he said indifferently: "It's a heavy killing intent, and it doesn't seem to be limited to ten people."
"Oh? I'm quite clear about the layout of this place. There are around 10 of them, so there's no more. " It was rare for Murong Fu to let out a smile, it seemed that he was disagreeing with Ling Xiao's way of distinguishing things, and even had a sarcastic attitude.
Everyone else also looked at the two, they did not know who to believe, because Murong Fu had sufficient reasons to prove himself, after all, he was someone from the Mu Rong family.
However, they did not dare to refute or give up on Ling Xiao's analysis. Before this, Ling Xiao's judgement had always been extremely accurate and had never failed before.
As a result, the atmosphere became awkward.
Very quickly, Ling Xiao smiled, then shook his head: "Gongzi Murong, seems like you are still too confident in yourself."
"What?" Seeing Ling Xiao's trembling smile, Murong Fu realized that Ling Xiao was not joking.
"Your family seems to be very dissatisfied with your choice." Ling Xiao said a few incomprehensible words.
But Murong Fu reacted, he used a very short time to understand Ling Xiao's intentions, there was someone trying to kill him!
Just at that moment, when Murong Fu heard a whistling sound, he already felt his hairs standing on end. A thick sense of danger arose from behind him, but he was already too late to react.
After that, everything went black. Murong Fu realized that Ling Xiao had already disappeared without him knowing!
"Pfft!" With a clear sound, he took out a concealed weapon and changed directions, and in the end, fiercely submerged it into the grass beside Murong Fu.
The sudden attack caught everyone off guard, and by the time they could react, Ling Xiao had already taken care of it!
Turning around, he looked at Ling Xiao who was standing behind him and opened his mouth wide, unable to say a single word.
"Come out, how long are you planning to hide?" Ling Xiao said indifferently as he did not look at Murong Fu, but instead, looked at a nearby bush.
Soon after, a figure slowly walked out. After Murong Fu saw the figure clearly, he could not help but shout out, "Why is it you!?"
Hearing that, everyone understood that there was a story behind it, but looking at that man's appearance, it was impossible for him to be Murong Fu's brother, so he should be his good friend.
"Master, you actually betrayed the family and leaked such an important secret. According to the family rules, you should be executed!" That person did not seem to react at all to Murong Fu's cry of alarm, his face was indifferent, and his eyes revealed an expression of extreme pain, showing that he still had some feelings for Murong Fu.
Ling Xiao watched quietly, he did not say a word, but his cold expression revealed that he would take his next move to kill the man.
Murong Fu never thought that his clan would actually send people to observe him from the shadows, and even prepare to kill him!
This time, Murong Fu had truly lost all confidence and hope in his clan. He thought that maybe he could change their minds when he returned, but now, it seemed like it was impossible!
"I thought you weren't as ignorant and rotten as my father and the others!" Murong Fu could not help but shout.
The man shook his head and said indifferently: "When have I ever made a choice? "I will do as you say, and it's the same for now. If you have anything you want to say, don't tell me either, it's meaningless."
Hearing that, everyone was startled, and then they sighed, and upon hearing that, Murong Fu no longer had any expression of anger, he knew that it was not that person's fault.
