“It shouldn’t be. Your movements just now were very accurate. This secret passage should be the one leading to the Heavenly Palace on the Cloud Top,” Wu Tianjiao said.

Well, hopefully we haven't gone the wrong way, otherwise this would be a real disaster.

"There's a stone cave ahead," the young man suddenly said.

Zhang Qiling then used his bone-shrinking technique to run ahead.

Chapter 167: The Lotus Sword, Poisoned Tip

The stone cave was above, and Zhang Qiling ran a few steps through the narrow opening before collapsing onto it.

Wu Tianjiao originally wanted to get there quickly as well.

But at this moment, the fat man was a burden. He couldn't even get through the narrow, dark passage, let alone the stone cave.

"Fatty, I'm warning you, next time you come down into a tomb with us, you fucking have to lose weight, you hear me?"

Tuck in your stomach, keep tucking in your stomach.

The fat man was slightly taken aback when he heard Wu Tianjiao's words.

At the same time, he was very happy because Tian Ge meant they could go tomb raiding together again in the future. This surprised him, and he was also very touched and felt guilty.

"What are you standing there for? I told you to tighten your stomach, didn't you hear me?"

The fat man smiled, then used all his strength to forcefully contract his stomach.

His originally round belly was eventually forced back down by him.

As he passed through the hidden passage that blocked him, the fat man suddenly fell to the ground, gasping for breath.

"I'm suffocating!"

"Brother Tian, ​​thank you so much! If it weren't for you guys, I would never have gotten through."

Wu Tianjiao patted the fat man on the shoulder.

"Alright, let's recover and go find the guy."

A few minutes later, Wu Tianjiao was the first to fly to the stone cave above.

Then they lowered the rope for Wu Xie and the others. After that, Wu Xie and the others climbed up.

Inside the cave, the young man held a flashlight and stared blankly at a rock.

"Brother Tian, ​​what's wrong with Xiao Ge? Did he remember something again?" the fat man asked.

Wu Tianjiao nodded. "Maybe."

Wu Xie frowned, and for some reason, he suddenly had an ominous premonition.

Wu Tianjiao, Wu Xie, and the fat man walked over. The young man was staring at a stone with a line of writing on it. It was written by Xie Lianhuan of the Xie family years ago.

The gist of the above is that Wu Sansheng wanted to harm him. The general outline of the events is as follows: The Wu family and the Xie family were related.

Back then, Xie Lianhuan found Wu Sansheng.

They invited him to join an archaeological team, specifically an underwater archaeological team. The Xie family comes from the Nine Gates, a typical family of tomb raiders.

When a tomb raider claims to be doing archaeological work, Wu Sansheng has no reason to believe Xie Lianhuan. Under Wu Sansheng's persistent questioning, Xie Lianhuan finally reveals the truth.

It turned out he was acting on behalf of a foreigner, who was none other than A Ning's boss, Jude Kao. Years ago, Jude Kao somehow learned the secrets of the Blood Corpse Tomb and the indoor bronze fish.

So they found him and asked him to help them find the Snake-Eyebrow Bronze Fish.

The Nine Gates suffered heavy casualties over one of the Snake-Eyebrow Bronze Fish, so Xie Lianhuan was hesitant to take the risk. Therefore, he went to find Wu Sansheng.

Huo Ling and Chen Wenjin were indeed members of the archaeological team at the time.

Wu and Jie then used their acquaintance with them to join the archaeological team.

Everything was going very smoothly.

But what Jie Lianhuan never expected was...

Wu Sansheng actually had the idea of ​​keeping the snake-browed bronze fish for himself, so he decided to kill him.

Wu Xie looked at the few lines of words carved on the stone.

Suddenly, I remembered what happened back then.

That was the year his third uncle escaped from the underwater tomb. His grandfather made him kneel in the ancestral hall and used family discipline on him. That was the first and only time Wu Xie had ever had memories of the Wu family's discipline.

Wu Xie was very young then, and he secretly hid behind the door. Although he was also terrified by Wu Laogou's appearance.

But he heard everything Wu Laogou said clearly.

Old Dog Wu said this at the time: "Wu Sanxing, you beast, you heartless bastard, how can you do this to the Xie family, how can you face Xie Lianhuan?"

At the time, Wu Xie didn't know why his grandfather was so angry.

As Wu Xie grew older, he realized that his grandfather's anger stemmed from blaming his third uncle for failing to protect Uncle Jie. But today...

"Wu Xie, Wu Xie, what's wrong?" Fatty asked, patting Wu Xie's shoulder when he saw Wu Xie's pale face.

"No, the truth is definitely not like that. My third uncle and Xie Lianhuan are relatives, how could she possibly kill Xie Lianhuan?"

Wu Xie hurriedly looked at Xiao Ge.

"Brother, you were also in the archaeological team working on the underwater tomb in the Xisha Islands back then. Tell me quickly, what exactly happened back then?"

The young man shook his head.

“I don’t remember most of what happened back then.” Wu Tianjiao patted Wu Xie on the shoulder. “Wu Xie, I think sometimes you should trust your intuition. After all, we didn’t experience what happened back then firsthand, and a letter written in blood alone doesn’t really prove anything.”

Wu Xie, who was on the verge of a breakdown, calmed down considerably after hearing Wu Tianjiao's words.

"Brother Tian is right. It's just a letter. What can it prove? We're not even sure if it was written by Xie Lianhuan."

"Let's go, let's find that so-called Heavenly Palace on the Clouds first."

Wu Tianjiao said.

Everyone nodded.

Just as everyone was about to leave, the fat man suddenly felt an itch on his back.

And the longer it went on, the more intense the itching became. "Fatty, what's wrong?"

Wu Xie asked.

"It must be because of that lotus arrow. Although those arrows won't kill you, they're poisoned. If you get hit by that lotus arrow, you might end up like Fatty now."

Wu Tianjiao said.

"Huh?" Wu Xie was immediately startled. What should we do next? We can't just let Fatty keep itching like this. Judging from his current state, he's almost at his limit."

The fat man was rolling around on the ground, itching so badly. Just then, Wu Xie suddenly realized something.

"That's not right. I was hit by the lotus arrow just like Fatty, so why am I okay but Fatty is?"

Wu Tianjiao chuckled. Perhaps it was because this fat man rarely bathed. "Tianzhen didn't bring any floral water; a little spray will do."

Wu Xie was stunned for a moment, looking at Wu Tianjiao with a surprised expression, wondering if Brother Tian was serious or just joking with him.

Wu Tianjiao smiled again and whispered a few words in his ear.

This made Wu Xie even more incredulous, and he even thought he had misheard. However, he ultimately did as Wu Tianjiao said.

"Ah, that feels so good, so comfortable."

In no time, the fat man felt that he was no longer itchy.

"Naive, you didn't actually put some kind of floral water on Fatty, did you?"

"That doesn't make sense. Fatty just took a shower the day before yesterday. It doesn't make sense."

"And another thing, you're a grown man, why are you bringing mosquito repellent when you go down into a tomb? Are you afraid of mosquitoes biting you in there?" the fat man said while enjoying himself.

When Wu Xie heard that Fatty had taken a shower the day before yesterday, he couldn't help but shudder.

"Fatty, you actually said you took a shower just two days ago? Why don't you say you ate a meal just two days ago?"

Chapter 168: The Forbidden Woman, That Guy Wants to Absorb Yang Energy

Wu Xie's mind was no longer on him. He stared at the wound on his hand, his face filled with disbelief.

Wu Xie had no idea when his blood had acquired such a powerful effect.

The fat man was poisoned by the lotus arrow; can smearing his skin with my own blood cure him?

When did his own blood acquire such miraculous effects? If this had happened to Brother Tian or Brother Xiao, he might have believed it, after all, those two were definitely top-tier experts.

But doesn't he know what abilities he possesses? Could it be because he practiced the "Body Tempering Technique" given to him by Brother Tian?

But lately, he's been either tomb raiding or investigating the origins of the Snake-Eyebrow Bronze Fish. He hasn't had much time to practice martial arts, and he's only mastered the basics of the Body Tempering Technique. Even if the Body Tempering Technique Brother Tian gave him is powerful, it shouldn't be this powerful. He's only just begun practicing it, yet it's already able to detoxify Fatty.

Moreover, "Body Tempering Technique, Body Tempering Technique"—just from the name, you can tell it's for strengthening the body. What does that have to do with the blood in the body? Unless he ate something beforehand that caused his blood to develop an resistance to the toxin, then...

But Wu Xie couldn't recall eating anything that could detoxify him. Just as Wu Xie was lost in thought and puzzled,

He felt like something was patting him on the shoulder.

And it also feels chilly.

It naturally gives people a sense of foreboding.

Wu Xie looked up and saw that the person standing in front of him was none other than himself.
