Tomb raiding: Those who achieve immortality all have tattoos.

Chen Yan calmly said, "I need a partner, and that person can only be you."

"You want me to go into the tomb for you?"

"As expected of the person I've set my sights on, no doubt about it."

"......."

Wu Xie remained silent for a moment, then finally said, "Okay, but we'll need time, won't we?"

"Of course, three years. After three years, you will be free."

"Okay, I agree. What are your plans?"

Chen Yan opened his eyes and said, "Your parents will be back home in five days."

"My parents? They too..."

Wu Xie didn't finish his sentence. Yes, even if Wu Yiqiong cleared his name, he was still a member of the Wu family, and still the head of the Wu family.

Wouldn't those people in the underworld who are obsessed with immortality have their eyes on him?

Chen Yan said calmly, "Don't worry, after this is over, they can still do whatever they want."

"Only by living can one have a future."

Thank you.

Wu Xie knew that Chen Yan had taken the initiative in this move.

After all, Chen Yan knew he would agree to his conditions even before he approached Chen Yan, so he took action in advance and sent people to rescue his parents.

That's true. Wu Xie chuckled self-deprecatingly. Besides being unlucky enough to attract those things when he went into tombs, what else did he have that Chen Yan would be willing to exchange for?

Chen Yan turned his head to look at his phone and said, "The person who took your parents back, come back with them. I'll be waiting for you at the Chen family home."

After saying that, Chen Yan hung up the phone and put it aside.

Wang Yueban cautiously picked up her phone and asked, "Fourth Master, may I ask... can I go? I'm really worried about Tianzhen."

"Whatever."

"it is good."

Wang Yueban didn't say anything more, turned around and left.

They are all in dire straits, barely able to save themselves, so they have no right to make demands of Chen Yan.

They should be incredibly grateful that Chen Yan is willing to lend them a hand.

Wu Erbai was unaware that Wu Xie had agreed to Chen Yan's conditions and was preparing to work as a shop assistant for the Chen family for three years.

Five days later.

Just as Wu Erbai was about to go to the Eleventh Warehouse to double-check security, Erjing suddenly cried out in a panic, "Second Master, Second Master! The First Master is back!"

What?

A look of shock flashed across Wu Erbai's face, and he abruptly turned to look at Erjing: "Where is he?"

"Just entered the gate."

Wu Erbai immediately dropped his coat and strode outside.

When they arrived at the veranda, they saw Wu Xie's parents, and Wu Xie himself had also arrived.

"Big brother, sister-in-law, you..."

Wu Erbai sighed halfway through his sentence and said, "It's good that you're alright."

Wu Yiqiong glanced calmly at Wu Erbai, then looked at Wu Xie: "What did you promise Chen Yan?"

?

Wu Erbai immediately turned to look at Wu Xie: "Wu Xie! What have you done?!"

Seeing Wu Xie's hesitant expression, Wu Yiqiong said, "Let me guess. Your identity as the Third Master of the Wu family is useless. As for your abilities, Chen Yan, as a successor of the Northern School, wouldn't even look at you."

"The only thing I can use for trading is you as a person."

"Is it right?"

Wu Xie exhaled a breath of stale air and said, "Yes, Dad, Chen Yan needs my ability to get into trouble in tombs, to be his scapegoat."

"Are you crazy?"

Wu Erbai looked at Wu Xie, about to say something, when Wu Xie raised his voice to interrupt him: "Second Uncle! Don't you understand?"

Wu Xie looked at Wu Erbai and said, "Among the Nine Gates now, only Chen Yan has the ability to protect people. Apart from Chen Yan, none of them are having an easy time."

"The Wu family may be small in number, but they are the key to everything. Furthermore, I was chosen by the Nine Gates as a backup plan before Chen Yan appeared!"

"Only Chen Yan can protect me!"

"fart!"

Enraged, Wu Erbai roared, "I can still protect you!"

"Really?"

Wu Xie asked casually, "Second Uncle, are you injured?"

"You're the one who sneaked in last night. You didn't sleep all night, were you? Keep watch at my door, right?"

Wu Erbai was speechless. Yes, everyone agreed that Wu Xie was the key. If they could capture Wu Xie, no matter how much he knew, they could get the Wu family to talk.

This is a consensus among everyone.

As for the Wu family, Wu Sansheng is gone, and Xie Lianhuan is also missing. Wu Erbai is all alone, having to protect his mother, manage the gambling den and the Eleventh Warehouse, and also protect Wu Xie, a "golden nugget".

We simply can't keep up.

The Eleventh Warehouse must not allow anyone to expose any more of its contents.

The more they expose, the more people outside will believe that the Wu family must know a lot of things.

You, Wu Erbai, have been in charge of the Eleventh Warehouse for so many years, and you're telling me you don't know about all the employees from the Nine Gates and their families here?

Nobody would believe that.

Once everything in Warehouse Eleven is leaked, everyone will know that the Nine Gates have been investigating the Second Mausoleum of the World for years.

The more suspicion the Wu family faces, the more dangerous it will be for Wu Xie.

We can do without the betting odds, and we can do without Wushanju (a gambling website).

But the Eleventh Warehouse is the fuse; it absolutely cannot be exposed to open flames, otherwise the Wu family will be blown up.

Grandma Wu, how can you just ignore Wu Erbai?

The only solution now is for Wu Xie to enter the Chen family and be under Chen Yan's protection, thus diverting the trouble to the east.

Everyone would think that since Chen Yan controlled Wu Xie, he knew everything the Wu family knew, and the Wu family could finally breathe a sigh of relief.

Did Wu Erbai not think of this?

can.

But he didn't dare.

The Wu family wants Chen Pi dead, so how dare Wu Erbai send the Wu family's child to Chen Yan?

Isn't that like a lamb being led to the slaughter?

Wu Yiqiong looked at the uncle and nephew, and asked unmovedly, "Where's the third brother?"

"Missing."

Wu Erbai explained softly, without looking at Wu Xie, his mind was in turmoil.

Wu Yiqiong nodded and said, "Wu Xie, you go to the Chen family. Your mother and I will stay here."

"Big brother!"

"Erbai, there's no need to send anyone to look for Lao San. Lao San and Lian Huan should be in Chen Yan's hands."

"Chen Yan?"

Wu Erbai looked at Wu Yiqiong in disbelief. Wu Yiqiong calmly said, "Chen Yan went to the Queen Mother of the West's Palace. Lao San and Lian Huan disappeared after that."

"But two weeks after they left the Queen Mother of the West's palace, they sent me a text message to let me know they were safe."

"Are you sure that's the third child?"

A single question left Wu Erbai speechless; he suddenly felt insecure.

Wu Yiqiong shook his head and said, "Second brother, your mind is in turmoil. That's enough."

He looked at Wu Xie and said, "Xiao Xie, you're right to go to the Chen family. The Chen family is the only place that can guarantee your survival. Also, since Chen Yan didn't kill you, it means he doesn't care about fighting the Nine Gates."

"Especially since he calls himself a second-generation rich kid."

"This is your chance."
