Chapter 60: Lifting the lid
Translator: 549690339
In the Golden Tower.
The strongest ancestor of the Xia clan, Xia Yuan, was sitting cross-legged behind a giant Golden Door. In front of him was a pot of tea. He held a cup in his hand and slowly sipped it. In his eyes, there was a deep worry, but there was an even stronger anticipation.
He had already been waiting here for six years!
He had also tasted tea for six years.
In the secret realm, he and Meng Yi had spent a year and obtained a lot of benefits before finally coming here.
There was a shocking inheritance here.
Originally, the two of them had come together to compete for the inheritance!
But in the end, all the tests were avoided and it was Meng Yi who went in to obtain the inheritance.
It was not that Xia Yuan was being modest.
It was because he had been despised by a senior who only had a wisp of spiritual sense left!
In the words of that senior, it was useless to pass on the inheritance to a body that was seriously injured and even had its Foundation damaged.
Xia Yuan was speechless.
There was definitely unwillingness in his heart!
However, it was still acceptable. The one who received the inheritance was his disciple. After drinking this pot of tea and consuming some of the elixirs that Meng Yi had requested from that senior, he could hold on for a few more decades. By then, Meng Yi would have grown up and become a pillar of the Xia clan. He would then be able to leave with no regrets and a more peaceful death.
However, what he was worried about now was that his clansmen did not know about his disappearance for seven years. They might think that he had gone to the Tiger clan or the succubus clan to risk his life.
Without him, when they felt danger, they might do crazy things!
He could only hope that there was still hope!
Those fellows could maintain their rationality and not be crazy enough to do things that touched the bottom line of the Tiger clan.
Just as Xia Yuan’s thoughts were floating.
With a loud bang, the Golden Door was opened.
His eyes lit up, and he stood up.
“Master, I’ve done it!”
Meng Yi walked out excitedly.
“You two losers! I’m so angry!”
“When you first entered this place, you were surrounded by fate energy and were on the verge of transforming into a Dragon. I must have been blind to think that you were people with great fate. I let you enter this place and even skipped the test. I’ll give you the benefits directly.”
but I didn’t expect that in just seven years, all your luck has disappeared. It’s even mixed with some bad luck. You look so unlucky. It’s a waste.
“What’s the matter with you two? I still don’t know the reason. Did I take drugs?”
“Also, I didn’t hold it against you when I saw that you were so lucky! How did you two get in here?”
Behind the open door, a skeleton stammered in a tone that made one’s teeth ache. It looked very excited.
Its bones were trembling, and it was obvious that it was in great pain.
Xia Yuan,”hehe.”
Meng Yi,”hehe.”
They put away their excitement and looked at each other.
He didn’t know how to answer.
They were all dumbfounded when they came here for no reason!
As for the fate entangling, who knew how it had entangled them!
However, since he had already gotten the benefits, he couldn’t say anything to provoke senior skeleton, who was obviously not in a good mood.
If you want to scold, then scold!
After all, he was a person who got what he deserved.
“AI!”
The skeleton sighed.
It contained a strong sense of depression and helplessness.
“Little brat, I’ll give you the inheritance! Our karma has been formed. Since you’ve taken the benefits, you’ll naturally have to pay the price. No problem!”
The skeleton stammered.
Before the inheritance, it didn’t say anything. Naturally, it wasn’t because it saw that Meng Yi and Xia Yuan were honest people.
As an old monster, it was not that simple.
It didn’t say it before, but it said it now because it had a backup plan if Meng Yi didn’t agree.
“Naturally!”
Xia Yuan nodded.
There was no such thing as free food.
He naturally knew this! The moment he learned of the shocking inheritance, he was already prepared to pay the price.
There was even the possibility that it was a trap.
However, at that time, they had no other choice.
Fortunately, the inheritance was real, and everything was normal so far.
As for the price to be paid, this was already a good result that he had long accepted in his heart!
No matter what, they had obtained the present benefits and could resolve the urgent need of the Xia clan.
The skeleton nodded in satisfaction at Xia Yuan’s tactfulness.
“This is the Holy tower, and a great demon is suppressed under it. I hope you can come back and help me strengthen the seal when you reach the venerable sovereign realm! This is actually nothing to you!”
The skeleton said.
but be quick. A hundred years. You have to become a saint Emperor within a hundred years. Otherwise, the consequences will be unimaginable.
don’t try to play tricks. The inheritance I’m going to give you needs the help of something very important. Otherwise, you won’t be able to live long even if you become a saint Emperor. You’ll know where the thing is when you come back!
The skeleton solemnly warned.
don’t mind me. This is just a little precaution. After all, I’m going to die after this. If I meet someone who doesn’t keep his promise, I’ll have regrets even if I die!
The skeleton sighed.
His voice was filled with helplessness.
Xia Yuan’s eyes were filled with bewilderment, but he did not show it. Instead, he nodded solemnly and looked at the skeleton with respect.
“Alright, the secret realm has been opened. You can go out on your own! I should also die!”
“It’s not easy to hold on for so many years!”
The skeleton sighed, then tilted its head and stopped moving. The Golden Door began to close slowly.
The bewilderment in the depths of Xia Yuan’s eyes grew even more intense.
This skeleton senior’s remnant soul was destroyed just like that. It was too straightforward, and it was even done in front of them.
He felt that there was a strong deliberate taste.
However, this was the skeleton’s territory. Even if he felt something was wrong, he didn’t dare to let Meng Yi test the waters. Even his expression was full of respect as he faced the skeleton.
“F * ck! What’s that?”
However, just as the Golden Door was about to close completely, leaving only a tiny gap, it was quickly and heavily opened again with a bang.
The skeleton, whose neck was already crooked, suddenly jumped up from the stone bench it was sitting on.
Xia Yuan’s body trembled. Even with his temperament, he was shocked by this sudden change.
As if something important had happened, the skeleton did not care about the mood of Xiayuan and Meng Yi. Originally, it had expressed that it was only a remnant soul and that it would be difficult to move, but with a Swoosh, it hurriedly flashed out of the golden secret Hall.
“Which bastard is trying to lift my lid!”
Its figure went far away, leaving only an angry curse on the spot.
“Master, this senior looks like a Kasaya.”
Meng Yi asked in surprise, but his mouth was covered by Xia Yuan.
“Shh!”
Xia Yuan put his middle finger to his mouth.
BOOM!
At this moment, the place they were standing on shook violently, as if it was about to collapse.
“Something big might have happened. Let’s go out first!”
Xia Yuan spoke.
Meng Yi nodded, picked Xia Yuan up, and ran towards the exit.
BOOM!
As soon as they got outside, they heard a loud noise. They saw a shocking scene. The Golden Tower was lifted up, and black water rushed up into the sky like a floodgate. The ground shook violently as if something was about to break out of the ground.
