“Of course, just to be safe, you should not rest for now. Go to the Hu Family and request one of their direct disciples to come over. Remember to be courteous.”
“Yes, Master.”
“Off you go.”
After Qin Ai departed, Fu Yuanpei slumped down, not reacting further. But after a long while, a sigh echoed in the room.
“Could it be that the great calamity prophesied by our Ancestor is approaching? I initially thought that the time of the prophecy had passed, that the issue was resolved, but now there’s a new twist – troubled times are upon us, I fear.”
After this, the room fell silent.
However, a gentle breeze suddenly blew outside the room.
…
Elsewhere, Liang Sheng chose not to stay at the Fu family. Wanting more answers, he followed Qin Ai in the opposite direction.
In no time, he arrived with Qin Ai at another sprawling mansion, with two characters written on the plaque.
Hu Mansion.
Qin Ai respectfully told the guards at the Hu family’s gate, “Could you please inform them that Qin Ai of the Huang family is here to see the Hu family’s manager?”
After giving his name card, Qin Ai stood beside the gate, his eyes closed in meditation while he waited for the Hu Family’s manager.
Liang Sheng, however, stayed hidden, marveling at how these Demonic Beasts appeared almost human, apart from the demonic aura they emitted.
Who would have thought that I’d encounter such a bizarre experience in Beast Swamp? If I told others that such a world exists beneath Beast Swamp, I doubt anyone would believe me.
Despite the flurry of images flashing through Liang’s mind under the Law of Cause and Effect, the final scene never appeared.
This was clear evidence that he was dealing with the biggest variable he’d experienced since starting his cultivation, so Liang Sheng naturally stayed hidden and watched carefully.
Although he hadn’t yet seen a specific image through the Law of Cause and Effect, his heart didn’t sense any danger.
Instead, his heart was pounding. Maybe this unexpected journey will solve some of my doubts and bring me closer to the secrets of the cultivation world.
Just then, the gates of the Hu Mansion opened.
A short white-bearded elderly man dressed like a wealthy commoner appeared. Judging from Qin Ai’s reaction, Liang Sheng knew he must be the Hu family’s manager.
A mere manager dressing like this implies that the Hu family is a significant force in the underground world, favoring human culture.
As Qin Ai clarified the situation and followed the Hu Family’s manager into the mansion, Liang Sheng, incognito, shadowed them closely, remaining unnoticed.
This time Liang Sheng felt a bit more relaxed. The layout of the Hu mansion, though massive, was differently structured from the Fu’s, appearing more refined and delicate.
At the least, the endless corridor in front of him and the winding stream suggested the taste of the mansion’s owner.
Moreover, the planning of the mansion subtly invoked the power of Yin, Yang, and the Five Elements. As an Array master, how could Liang Sheng fail to notice this?
Liang Sheng became more cautious. Seeing that the demonic beasts here are far from simple, he was sure there were secrets in their choice of dwelling underground.
Be it the Seeking Truth Lineage or the East Victory Immortal Dynasty, their obliviousness made this situation more mysterious.
Meanwhile, Qin Ai and the Hu Family manager arrived at the reception hall and sat down for tea. However, Liang Sheng noted that the tea was blood-red.
Although the tea had been treated, it still held faint traces of a bloody smell. How could such a thing evade Liang Sheng’s senses?
However, these details were beside the point. After playing the initial host, the Hu Family manager then departed.
“Guard Qin, please stay here and wait. I will go and fetch the Master.”
“Thank you for your trouble.”
The Hu Family manager nodded, exchanged pleasantries, then walked out of the room without hesitation, leaving Qin Ai alone.
Not long after, Liang Sheng, who was hiding nearby, suddenly perked up, his eyes narrowing.
The Master of the Hu family was coming!
