Chapter 89: Artifacts

Although the main hall's door was closed, a little of the setting sun's afterglow could shine in through the window.

Chen Yan sat in a chair while Chu Keqing spoke with Boss He; he, however, looked up at a portrait of Old Grandma He hanging on the wall—in the black-and-white photo, the Old Grandma of the He family looked kind and benevolent.

The photo hung on a cabinet, and below the photo on the cabinet

But would Lin Feng really remain so relaxed? Just then, a dangerous net quietly spread out.

"What is this thing?" Yan Hua picked up a round crystal the size of an infant's fist and asked. The crystal was red with some impurities in the middle; from its appearance, it was not as precious as the gems on the first floor. Yet, being placed on the second floor, its value must be higher than the gems on the first floor.

Autumn Rain was also shocked and terrified. The Heir actually liked men; did that not mean the future successor to the Marquis's mansion would have to be adopted from the second branch? Thinking that the Old Lady had calculated so much, only for this to be the result.

As soon as Ye Zi spoke, Meng Fei began to form hand seals. After forming each hand seal, Meng Fei pointed to a star in the Starry Cloud Bagua. That star then began to slowly move to the position specified by Ye Zi.

"Boss, it's almost done." Saying this, he took four money crates from the iron door beside the bank counter and, struggling a bit, twisted his way over toward the leading brother.

The telepathic conversation between Lin Feng and his older brother seemed long, but it was merely a blink of an eye. Having finished the talk and reached an agreement, he immediately formed a brilliant plan and then began to put it into action.

When the three appeared, the people locked in the prison had already recognized the newcomers' identities; it was obvious they had come to rescue them.

Holding Ah Li in one hand and covering his face with the other, Weiyang stared blankly at Situ Chenyi, who had suddenly appeared, not expecting him to actually strike back. Moreover, why did he suddenly appear here? Was it possible he and Ning Xiang had conspired to make him look foolish?

As Leng Tian had just sealed Judas into the Purgatory, a thunderous explosion, like rolling thunder, erupted from the direction of the Taigu Ancient City. A mushroom cloud formed of dense demonic energy shot skyward, covering the entire sky above the Taigu Ancient City.

A bad premonition rose in Shi Xi's heart. Before she could ask what he meant by those words, the man had already walked out of the room.

Ruoxi's heart pounded; she could not believe she could still descend this mountain and go out to see the world. For a moment, excitement caused mist to rise in her eyes.

Needless to say, the Knight Division viewed him as the number one unwelcome person after he was stripped of the top position; they were now all determined to pull him down.

Perhaps having confirmed she could not escape, the man's movements became unhurried; he pulled a spring-loaded knife from his pocket.

Yan Jiao Sect did not know where she had entered the room from; she sat directly in the spot Shang Qingyue had occupied before, hurriedly poured a cup of tea, and drank it, showing no embarrassment at all after eavesdropping on others' conversation.

"Yes, Director Lu and Teacher Li were chatting in the back, so they let me sit over here," Li Xuejian's assistant replied.

Having spoken, a slit opened in the rock wall from above, leaving Li Jing alone inside the stone peak while the other five leaped out of the stone peak one after another through this opening.

This was a plan Lu Feifan had formulated himself according to the Great Roc's personality and abilities. But it was impossible to explain this clearly to the Great Roc; after all, whenever anyone heard their boss say they should settle down, the first thing they thought of was that the boss intended to bury them.

He thought it was already in the past; even though she remained cold, she did not refuse his contact, so he thought everything was beginning to develop in a good direction.

I glanced at Old Ma and Wang Yang; now only one pill remained. Should I fight them for it?
