Chapter 1746: The Truth
Yun Chujiu had heard enough. She gestured to the SAINTESS and both of them launched an attack at the same time.
The father and son had low spiritual power to begin with. In addition, Yun Chujiu and the Saintess launched a sneak attack, so they were restrained in one move..
After Yun chujiu restrained their spiritual power, she pressed on their acupoints, then, she said with a smile, “I really admire your ancestors for coming up with such a good idea of getting something for nothing! However, you guys are also quite greedy. Why Don’t you just give it a try? You Don’t know how to quit when the time is right. People really die for money!”
Although the father and son did not know Yun Chujiu, they still recognized the saint’s attire. They were immediately scared out of their wits. “Saint, Please spare my life! Saint, please spare my life!”
The saint was so angry that she was trembling. When she thought about how she and her ancestors were treated like fools by others, she wished that she could just slap the two people in front of her to death.
“Sheng nv!”Yun chujiu winked at the SAINTESS. The saintess knew that Yun Chujiu had many tricks up her sleeve, so she didn’t say anything.
Yun Chujiu took out a sword and put it on the young man’s neck, she said fiercely, “Tell me honestly what’s going on here. If you have a good attitude, I can help you plead with the SAINTESS. If you play tricks, not only you, but also your family will die!”
If the young man had not been struck by the acupoint, he would have collapsed on the ground. He said with a trembling voice, “Please spare my life, fairy! Please spare my life! I’ll tell you, I’ll tell you, I’ll tell you!”
Although the old man was more shrewd, he was now under the control of others and had no choice but to let the young man tell the truth.
It turned out that the father and son’s ancestor was a craftsman. This palace was renovated a thousand years ago. When the craftsman was renovating, he accidentally found the secret room below, he also found that there was a passage in the secret room that led to the garden.
Although the craftsman was very surprised, he did not say anything about it and continued to participate in the renovation.
When he was working, he heard someone chatting. They said that every month on the first day of the month, they would offer a large amount of supreme-grade spirit stones to the spirit of the netherworld. He thought of the debt his family owed, and a greed arose in his heart.
The Craftsman took advantage of the fact that no one was paying attention to him and hid in the dark room below. Although the craftsman found that there was one person missing, he could not find the person, so he just let it go.
Thus, the craftsman began to dig a secret passage leading to the outside world. Halfway through, he swept up all the supreme-grade spirit stones offered and then continued to dig a secret passage below.
The Craftsman spent a whole month digging a secret passage. He estimated that he had already left the Netherworld Hall by a sufficient distance before he began to dig upwards. Then, he took advantage of the high moon and the dark wind to dig out from within, he discovered that the exit was coincidentally on a cliff. After covering the entrance of the tunnel, he went home in high spirits.
The craftsman originally only wanted to do this once. After paying off his debt, he wouldn’t do it anymore. However, he wasn’t satisfied. After he had squandered all the money in his hands, he did it again. After that, when he saw that nothing had happened, he became even more unscrupulous.
Although he also used this money to do business later on, how could he get money so quickly? Thus, he continued to steal it, passing it down from generation to generation. This family had always lived on these top-grade spirit stones, and in the middle, they even spent a high price to buy a hidden array disk and place it at the entrance of the tunnel.
