Chapter 228: Inheritance cave
At this moment Tianlong Yun had a smirk on his face, he had chosen these poison and herbs exactly because of their rarity.
The 'Nether Flower' and the 'True Yang Flower' were two of the rarest herbs in the Immortal World.
They were ranked 9th and 5th in the list of the most precious herbs. The 'Nether Flower' was used mostly in poisons with Yin attribute, and by cultivators of Yin Qi.
As for the, 'Yang True Flower' was a treasure for the fire creatures and especially male cultivators.
The reasons were simple. The 'Yang True Flower' could burn the impurities in their bodies, by igniting their Yang Qi and increase their cultivation without any side effect.
That was why every time such a flower was brought to the scene people would prepare big chests of pills, relics, weapons, treasures, and God-stones to buy it.
But there was also another reason why he asked for such a herb. The truth was that Earth had surprised him with its resources.
He thought that maybe he would get a surprise even in this case. He didn't expect it to happen, just wished it to. And perhaps there was an opportunity for the future.
Returning to the current situation, Qin Bao had a disappointed expression on her face, it seemed like the hopes she built were destroyed like sandcastles.
Young Master's Qing Fang's promise seemed to give her a little ray of hope, but the disappointment was clear in her face.
But the most disappointed people in the room seemed to be the sly foxes, they had lost their biggest card to the exploration of the inheritance.
At this moment, the fairy voice of Tianlong Xia echoed once again in the office room,
Tianlong Xia:" Bao'er you will also follow the gentlemen's to the inheritance cave, and enter the site. It will be a good experience for you."
Her voice once again hypnotized the minds of the people in the room. Her voice was like a translucent sweet and aromatic wave.
Qin Bao didn't understand why she had to go there when she had no cultivation whatsoever, but fortunately, the control of her body was in Tianlong Yun's hands.
That was why she immediately bowed towards Tianlong Xia and said in a reverent voice,
Qin Bao:" Yes Master! This disciple will obey the Master's words."
This left a taste of displeasure in the sly foxes mouths, they not only lost a good vanguard to help them but at the same time they gained a dead weight.
A deadweight that they couldn't afford to kill, or lose, at the moment.
But of course, they wouldn't show this on their faces or words, so it was Young Master Qing Fang the first to speak this time,
Qing Fang:" It will be a great pleasure, to have such a beautiful flower-like you, accompanying us Young Miss Qin Bao."
And right after him, it was Master Jiao Wen's turn,
Jiao Wen:" Young Master Qing Fang's words are true just like the fact that the sun rises in the East. It will truly be a pleasure Young Miss Qin Bao.
I gladly offer myself as your guard during the exploration of the inheritance Young Miss Qin Bao."
At this moment Old Luo decided to stay out of this, the purposes of the two sly foxes beside him were clear, and even though he also thought that Qin Bao was like a flower, he was too old for this.
But Qing Fang's and Jiao Wen's words seemed to fall in deaf ears because Qin Bao didn't seem to care much, she just gave a perfunctory answer,
Qin Bao:" Thank you very much for your sweet words gentlemen, it is truly a bliss hearing to those compliments."
Then letting go of her sweet smile, she turned with a serious and firm voice,
Qin Bao:" But now turning to the issue, I think it would be in our best interests if we share information together, and make a plan beforehand."
Her words had truth in them, but that was in the case that the people participating were bona fide partners, but in their case, they were just partners for benefits.
Even though Qin Bao's words were a good suggestion for them and in the best interests of all of them, they still wanted to get the most for themselves.
Each one of them had its own goals on this trip to explore the inheritance cave of the rumors, and that was why they didn't want to share their piece of information.
But this didn't mean that they weren't interested in the information their 'new partners' had.
And how could a fox-like Master Jiao Wen, and Old Luo lose this opportunity, and they immediately started to speak. The first to speak was Master Jiao Wen,
Jiao Wen:" You are really intelligent Young Miss Qin Bao, this idea is truly perfect. Making a plan to enter the cave will lower our losses, and give us a better position in entering it.
I think that Young Master Qing Fang as a high member of EITS should have the most detailed information out of the four of us.
So why don't you start first Young Master Qing Fang?"
His words were immediately seconded by Old Luo,
Old Luo:" It's true, all the information that we possess is bought from EITS, so it's only logical to think that they possess the best information, and maybe more than they sold.
Now as partners that we became, I think that Young Master Qing Fang should show a bit of goodwill to his new partners.
Of course, in order to show gratitude for this towards Young Master Qing Fang, I propose that when we enter the cave he takes the first treasure and after that finders keepers."
Truly an old sly fox, at the same time, he was cornering Young Master Qing Fang to give them more information, and also trying to be a good Samaritan.
The idea of dividing everything they found in equal parts disappeared with the absence of Qin Bao's Master.
The reason why he decided to give Young Master Qing Fang such an opportunity though, was because he never thought that the first thing they would find, would be something worthy.
But, now the ball was in Young Master Qing Fang's hands, and he knew he couldn't escape this now without breaking the partnership.
And he couldn't lose his vanguard towards the Masons just for some stupid inheritance that he hadn't seen. Furthermore, he didn't need to reveal all the extra information, just a little piece.
Thinking like this, Young Master Qing Fang made way towards a wall map of the Anhui province, and started explaining,
Qing Fang:" According to our information, the inheritance cave is found in the southeast mountains of the Tianchang city.
We have yet to locate the exact location, since like you said Young Miss Qin Bao, this was just a rumor at first.
The rumor came from a man who apparently had entered a cave in a big sized rock one night and had seen the projection of a man.
The man talked about some inheritance and power. But the villager thinking that the man was a ghost, ran outside the place immediately and never turned back.
The villagers in his village tried to go to that place and explore and find it, but they were unable to.
According to EITS, there must be some special activation method of the entrance, as for what to find inside there, we are still in the dark about that."
Hearing this explanation, Tianlong Yun was really happy. All this time his purpose had been to learn about the location of the inheritance.
With his experience, he was sure that he could enter and sweep that place clean of everything it had.
In his previous life, when he was little, the mechanisms left on inheritance caves were his favorite thing to read about.
It could be said that he was a master in deactivating traps and dangerous mechanisms.
That was why learning of the location of the inheritance cave, was everything he needed. Now the only thing left was to make these people leave.
Appearing as thinking hard for a few moments with a wrinkled forehead, Qin Bao said with a pensive look and voice,
Qin Bao:" I think the best we can do at the moment, is to go and investigate the place together as soon as possible gentlemen.
I don't see any other alternative at the moment."
The other people also seemed to agree with her. of course they had an idea that Young Master Qing Fang was withholding some information, but there was nothing they could do.
They couldn't accuse him without facts, and the next best thing was investigating the place together.
Once again it was Old Luo who said with a sigh,
Old Luo:" Sighh~ You are right Young descendant of the Qin's, that's our best option at the moment."
Hearing these words and seeing the acceptance and acknowledgment of the other two, Qin Bao decided to call it a night,
Qin Bao:" Well then since we have decided in all these things we all must be tired gentlemen and I also have to see off my Master."
All three of them understood that Qin Bao was asking them to leave this place with finesse, and they wouldn't dare to oppose her words, not with her Master here present.
Furthermore, this night had been too eventful and they had a lot to report to their organizations, for their new partnership and information.
With these thoughts, it was Young Master Qing Fang who said first,
Qing Fang:" We all really are tired, but tonight turned into such a beautiful surprise. Thank you for your hospitality Young Miss Qin Bao.
I will send you someone to inform you about the investigation of the place.
Goodnight and sweet dreams."
Immediately after him, it was Master Jiao Wen's turn,
Jiao Wen:" Young Master Qing Fang is right, this night has truly become a beautiful surprise. Thank you for your warm hospitality Young Miss Qin Bao.
Goodnight and hope you sleep well."
And the last but not least, Old Luo,
Old Luo:" Well then I must go to, Young descendant of the Qin's. I am sure your grandfather will be really happy with you.
Good night."
Hearing the last words of Old Luo, Qin Bao seemed as woken up from a reverie and said
