773 Brother Jiu Is Here

Ever since he started cultivating martial arts in the forbidden area, the Ghost King’s temperament had become more and more violent. Although he was not like Asura, who would kill anyone he saw, falling into his hands was not much better than being killed by Asura.

He wanted to personally end Madam’s life. One could imagine how miserable Madam’s outcome would be.

Qiu Wuya didn’t have much sympathy for that Madam. Of course, he didn’t hate her much in the past. However, since that Madam was someone his senior brother wanted to protect, he was naturally happy to see her shatter into pieces.

Who asked him to live in the shadow of his senior brother since he was young? In the family, his cousin was a more intelligent and sensible child who was doted on by his elders. After becoming his master’s disciple, his cousin became his senior brother and was valued by his master.

He was clearly more talented, but his master always said that he had evil intentions and was unwilling to pass on his mantle to him.

Now that the old man had passed away, he could not see his senior brother’s downtrodden appearance. Otherwise, he would have to show off in front of the old man so that he would know what it meant to be blind!

Qiu Wuya was proud in his heart, but he did not dare to show the slightest bit of complacency on his face. He once again laid his body on the ground, his forehead touching the cold ground. He said piously and respectfully, “My King, today’s pill has been successfully refined. I’ve improved the prescription. The taste is slightly different from before, and the effect is twice as strong. Not only can it help you recover your appearance, but it can also greatly increase your strength.”

The man on the throne retracted his murderous aura.

Qiu Wuya knew that his life was saved, but he did not dare to stay here any longer. He hurriedly said, “I’ll go prepare now. I’ll send someone to deliver the pill to you later.”

The man on the throne waved his sleeve.

Qiu Wuya kowtowed and left without looking back.

He returned to his room and looked at the pills in the cauldron. He called for the medicine boy and sent the pills to the King.

…

On the other side, Yan Jiuchao, Yu Wan, and the others left the forbidden area and arrived at an abandoned small straw hut.

This hut was originally a small warehouse used to store charcoal, fire, and other winter supplies. After that, a new warehouse was built three miles away, and this place became idle.

The Ghost Clan’s forbidden area was huge. Shadow Six roughly drew a map of the Ghost Clan according to Ah Dou’s description.

“This area is a forbidden area. We’re in the north of the forbidden area. About twenty miles to the east is the mountain range where the palace is located. According to Ah Dou, the palace is heavily guarded. The possibility of us entering like this is not high. Although it’s also a method to sneak in behind the mountain range, it’s also easy to be discovered.”

As Shadow Six spoke, he revealed a troubled expression. “From the looks of it, our chances of saving them are very slim.”

“Isn’t there an Asura?” Old Cui said as he nibbled on a radish.

Shadow Thirteen said, “Asura has to stay here to protect Young Madam.”

Yu Wan was pregnant, and no one agreed to let her take the risk. Saving people was important, but her safety was as important as the baby in her stomach. If the price of saving people was to implicate Yu Wan and the child, he believed that the old man, Ah Wei, and the others would not agree.

“Is there another way?” Yan Jiuchao looked at Ah Dou.

Ah Dou thought hard. He had indeed been to many places. Unfortunately, he had been away for many years and could not remember many things.

Shadow Thirteen said with a solemn expression, “If there’s no other way, we can only go around to the back of the mountain and take a gamble.”

“The back of the mountain? Ah!” Ah Dou slapped his thigh. “I remember now. There’s a passage in the forbidden area that leads to the palace! It’s…”

“What’s wrong?” Shadow Six asked.

Ah Dou looked troubled. “Only priests can walk through that passage. There are many strange patterns on every door…”

After he described it for a while, everyone roughly understood. Qimen Dunjia, Five Elements Eight Trigrams, these … are things that the sacrificial soldiers are not good at.

“I’ll go take a look,” Yan Jiuchao said.

“Young Master.” Shadow Thirteen looked at him worriedly, his gaze landing on his eyes. “You…”

“I’m fine,” Yan Jiuchao said.

“I feel that something’s wrong with you.” Yu Wan felt that their expressions were strange.

Yan Jiuchao’s eyesight was not good anymore. At first, he would only lose his sight at night, and slowly, it would flare up occasionally during the day. However, he hid well, and with Shadow Thirteen cooperating from the side, no one noticed anything amiss.

“I’m fine,” Yan Jiuchao said again, not giving Yu Wan a chance to ask. He turned to Asura and said, “Guard Ah Wan later. Don’t let anyone discover her.”

Asura widened his eyes and nodded.

Yu Wan swallowed her words, “I want to go too.” Forget it. She was pregnant, so she shouldn’t cause trouble for them.

Yan Jiuchao looked at Shadow Thirteen and the others and said, “Pack up and prepare to set off. Ah Dou, lead the way.”

Ah Dou opened his mouth. “No, shouldn’t you…”

“Knife.” Shadow Thirteen pointed at the suitcase at Ah Dou’s feet.

Ah Dou pulled out a large knife and handed it to him. Shadow Thirteen pinned the knife to his waist.

Ah Dou continued, “At least ask…”

“Sword.” Shadow Six reached out to him.

Ah Dou was interrupted again. He rolled his eyes helplessly and took out the sword from his suitcase. Shadow Six put away his sword.

Ah Dou continued, “My…”

“Let’s go,” Yan Jiuchao said.

The group left the hut in a grandiose manner. Ah Dou’s mouth twitched as he watched the few of them leave in a carefree manner. Then, he finished his sentence, “Opinion?”

He was a white envoy! His mission was to capture Madam back to the palace, not to help them break into the palace. Did these guys have any awareness of being hostages?

Ah Dou crossed his arms resentfully. He wouldn’t go! He was the most loyal white envoy. He would never betray his king!

Fifteen minutes later, they sneaked into the forbidden area and found the tunnel that Ah Dou had once walked through.

“Not many people know about this tunnel. The priest only brought me through it. All of you, follow closely. If you went the wrong way, I won’t care!”

Ah Dou walked in the front row valiantly!

“Young Master, look, there’s something on the stone wall.” Shadow Six raised his torch and illuminated the pattern on the stone wall.

The pattern was covered in dust. Shadow Thirteen raised his hand and wiped it. “This pattern is so familiar. I think I’ve seen it somewhere before.”

Yan Jiuchao took out a token from his pocket. It was the one he had dug out at the bottom of the cliff. The pattern on the stone wall was exactly the same as the token.

Ah Dou also noticed it. He looked at the token and then at the stone wall. The ten feet clueless monk was confused. “Eh? What’s going on? The token is engraved wrongly, and the stone wall is also drawn wrongly?”

It seemed that it was not as simple as “engraved wrongly”. The Ghost Clan’s totem was a green ghost fire, and so was the token and the stone wall. However, one flame was to the right, and the other was to the left. Moreover, there was an additional crack under the token and the ghost fire on the stone wall.

Yan Jiuchao looked at Ah Wu and said, “You just said that only the priest has been here?”

Ah Dou nodded. “Yes, even the king didn’t know that there was such a passage. I bumped into it by accident. The priest sprained his ankle and couldn’t walk anymore. He seemed to be in a hurry to rush back, so he asked me to carry him through the passage here. He asked me to swear not to tell anyone about the secret of the passage. Isn’t he about to die? I brought you here to save him!”

Actually, it was not Ah Dou who led the way. How could he, a super bad at directions, remember the way? It was the master and servant who found it according to his description.

Yan Jiuchao said thoughtfully, “It seems that we can only know what the totem is about after saving Grandma.”

He had a vague guess in his heart, but now was not the time to verify his guess. Saving people was more important. He put away the token and walked forward. Halfway there, the blindness relapsed.

Shadow Thirteen carried him on his back.

Shadow Six and Ah Dou thought that he was tired at first. It was not until Shadow Thirteen faced a wall and drew something on it for Yan Jiuchao that the two of them realized that he could not see.

Yan Jiuchao muttered, “‘Fourth Xiumu, second Shangdu, sixth Life and Death, eighth Jingkai…’ It’s Bamen Rumu! Retreat!”

Shadow Thirteen stomped his toes and suddenly retreated!

Almost at the same time, Shadow Six and Ah Dou also retreated a distance away. A few Dragon Subduing Stones suddenly fell from where the three of them were standing, creating a few huge cracks in the ground. They did not dare to imagine what would happen if these stones hit them.

They broke out in a cold sweat.

After that, they became even more vigilant.

“Three on the right, the Gate of Life!”

The Eight Gates of Life and Death here were constantly changing. They did not dare to be negligent. With Yan Jiuchao’s order, they ran into the Gate of Life together.

Fortunately, they did not encounter any danger after entering the Gate of Life. The four of them successfully entered the palace.

The layout of the palace was not complicated. Moreover, Qiu Wuya did not hide anyone. Even a blind person would be able to find them if they were left in the courtyard.

Qing Yan was worried about the little black eggs when he looked up and saw a shadow sneaking over.
