Enchantress Amongst Alchemists: Ghost King’s Wife

Chapter 1168-1169



Chapter 1168 - Undermining Talent Part 5

"Moreover, I am not heading there myself as I have demon beasts by my side…'

When Hai Wei saw that she was already certain of her decision, he nodded and said, "Alright then. I will help you govern the Region Head Manor. Please come back as soon as possible."

Mu Ru Yue no longer said further when she heard that. She shifted her gaze toward the indistinct aura within the back courtyard. She said inwardly, "Wu Chen, I will be back soon. I hope you will have come out from seclusion training by the day I return…"

The next day.

Yin Hua was looking around at the bottom of the mountain. Yet, he suddenly noticed white robes that were heading toward him. His expression changed instantly.

"Why has she appeared here?"

Wen Hao glanced at Yin Hua before he said, "She was invited by Qiu Mei and me."

"You… the two of you…" Yin Hua's expression turned ashen as he rebuked, "You have actually invited this woman! Are you trying to let her rip some profits?"

"Hehe." Qiu Mei chuckled lovely as she continued, "Head of Yin family, that's where you are wrong. We have invited her, hoping she can help us with some dangers. It will be safer to get an additional person during this expedition. With just three of our influential power, we are still unable to fully explore this tomb!"

"Hmph!" Head of Yin family snorted coldly. He swung his sleeves down and said, "We don't need her in this matter. I have already invited a family that is even more powerful than our three influential power! They will gather here in a bit."

A group of people walked briskly over as he was saying that.

The leader of the group was a man with a cold and stern expression. There was a bunch of people following behind him. The head of the Yin family's eyes lit up when he saw the man that was walking at the forefront of the group.

"Young Master Lin, you are finally here!"

'Lin family of the North Wind City?'

Qiu Mei and Wen Hao's expression turned grim. Their expressions were incredibly unpleasant.

The Lin family was the strongest family within North Wind City. It was rumoured that the Lin family had a God-king Peak realm expert within the Lin family! It was something that nobody could afford to offend!

Furthermore, the Head of the Yin family had a connection with the Lin family. This was due to his daughter being the concubine of this Young Master of the Lin family, Lin Tian (approach sky)!

With the addition of the Lin family to this expedition, the treasure that would land into their hands would be pitifully miserable. The majority of the treasures would land into the Lin family…

Therefore, the two influential power were greatly dissatisfied with the action of the Yin family at this moment.

"I've heard you all have discovered a tomb. Thus, I've come here to explore it. I wonder if we can start now?"

Perhaps it was due to being backed by the Lin family that Yin Hua got confident. With puffed out chest, he said, "Young Master Lin, there is a slight commotion before you came. Wen Hao and Qiu Yu had allowed another person to join our expedition without my consent."

Yin Hua ignored the two that had an increasingly unpleasant expression when he said that. He turned to look at Mu Ru Yue that was at the bottom of the mountain. He sneered and said, "This woman is the person they have just invited. She is also the new Region Head of Nanyang Region!"

"Is she the region head that is being discussed widely?" Lin Tian swept a gaze at Mu Ru Yue and continued indifferently, "I don't think she is as worthy as what the rumours say. But since she wants to join, let's let her. I also want to witness what capability this Region Head has!"

"Since Young Master Lin had said the words, I will let her stay."

Yin Hua raised his chin and sniggered at Mu Ru Yue.

Nonetheless, Mu Ru Yue seemed to have not felt his ridicule in the slightest. Her flawless face was emotionless since the start.

Chapter 1169 - Entering The Tomb! Danger! Part 1

"Little sister." Qiu Mei giggled lovably. But her gaze swept a look behind Mu Ru Yue and asked, "Where are your people?"

"I didn't bring them."

Mu Ru Yue shrugged her shoulders as she continued, "It will suffice with just me."

"Haha!"

Yin Hua burst into waves of laughter before the rest could react. He mocked, "Are you an idiot or overly confident to not bring anyone when you plan to explore the tomb?! Can it be you are unaware of the danger of the tomb? Even God-king expert won't be able to survive in there, not to mention yourself. You will only be a burden to us coming here. When we face danger, nobody will protect you!"

He snorted coldly as he swept a gaze at Mu Ru Yue's face with disdain. The smirk on his face intensified.

Mu Ru Yue didn't say further. Her gaze landed on Wen Hao's face and asked, "Can we set out?"

"Alright." Wen Hao chuckled.

'I don't know why but I am influenced by her indifferent and calm expression…

'It is precisely due to that indifferent expression that it makes people unable to develop doubt in her decision.'

"This is the place."

The team halted their steps as they reached the empty valley. Yin Hua turned his head to look respectfully at the man behind him. "Young Master Lin, this is the place we discovered the historical remains."

"Mhm."

Lin Tian nodded arrogantly. His gaze landed on the enormous historical remains before him. He said coldly, "We shall now activate the large door of the historical remains."

"Alright." Yin Hua replied respectfully. Following that, his gaze turned to the other two and said, "Lady Qiu Mei and Mister Wen, isn't it time for you to take out the two other kets?"

Wen Hao and Qiu Mei looked at each other before taking out the keys from their respective families.

The three keys must be gathered together to open the large doors of historical remains…

Clang!

An extremely loud sound was heard. When the crowd raised their head to look at the source, the door gradually opened. Instantly, a tomb that had gold and jade in glorious splendor appeared within everyone's eyes…

The crowd's breath tightened as they looked at the historical remains before them with scorching gazes. Even Wen Hao that was known to be calm and collected was subconsciously stirred up.

Only Mu Ru Yue remained emotionless as she seriously sized up the tomb before her.

"Let's go and head inside."

Lin Tian withdrew his gaze and walked into the historical remains.

"The historical remains seemed to have some generations." Qiu Mei raised her long, shapely eyebrows and with a smile in her eyes, she commented, "It should at least be from a few thousand years ago. I don't know which expert has left this historical remains."

'It's undeniable that their harvest definitely won't be small this time…'

"Master, it is really dangerous in here."

When Mu Ru Yue was surveying the historical remains, Fire Phoenix's voice was heard from within her soul, "I can feel a mighty force in here. You must be extra careful."

"Mighty force? Alright, I understand."

Mu Ru Yue nodded slightly and replied calmly.

"Region head," Wen Hao nodded at Mu Ru Yue. With a trace of a smile on his feeble, gravely pale face, he said, "You just need to follow us later."

'Currently, Mu Ru Yue has sufficient potential. Therefore, we will protect her no matter what. If we can have a relationship with the Region Head Manor, perhaps it will be extremely advantageous to the Wen family in the future…'

Since Wen Hao was the current governor of the Wen family, he clearly understood this logic…
