At the dining table.
Master Hu never dared to look at Liu Zhihua!
Although Liu Zhihua was more handsome than Liu Zhichao, and his clothes were very elegant, exuding a noble aura with every gesture.
However, Master Hu absolutely dared not look into his eyes.
To Master Hu, this was a true monster!
"Heh heh, second brother, this is Master Hu, you've met him before!"
Liu Zhichao took the initiative to introduce Master Hu.
Master Hu naturally quickly raised his wine glass!
"Heh heh, it's the second time we've met. No need for drinks. Master Hu, you've been resting for a while. Have you made any breakthroughs? I heard there was an ice coffin inside. The contents weren't taken out, but they were likely taken by someone else. So, where is the real main tomb chamber?"
Liu Zhihua directly stopped Master Hu's action and asked with a smile.
His tone was very relaxed, as if discussing grave robbing was as casual as colleagues chatting about daily life.
This was a truly formidable person!
Master Hu took a deep breath. He had naturally thought this matter through carefully. He immediately nodded at Liu Zhihua and said, "Second Young Master, I understand what you mean. I've also considered this matter. I think we should look for another tomb chamber, likely in the northwest direction..."
Afterward, Master Hu began to mention some feng shui principles.
Whether Liu Zhihua on the opposite side understood or not, Master Hu spoke very professionally.
Many people around nodded subconsciously.
"Oh, so that means the main tomb chamber is likely even deeper?" Liu Zhihua pressed.
"If I'm not mistaken, it should be deeper!"
Master Hu also nodded.
This point coincided with what Ling Feng had said earlier, which was enough to show that this Master Hu was indeed quite extraordinary.
After Liu Zhihua and Liu Zhichao exchanged glances, they did not continue the topic and instead began to toast each other.
However, when Ling Feng was mentioned, the two briefly discussed his identity.
But in the end, they found no clues.
Finally, Liu Zhihua promised Liu Zhichao that he would definitely find Ling Feng to avenge his brother, and then they moved past the topic!
How could they have known that Ling Feng, whom they were discussing, was currently enduring inhuman suffering?
Zhou Jin's eyes were bloodshot from staring at Ling Feng for too long.
Not only was he starving, but the place was also extremely cold, which placed a great burden on Zhou Jin's body!
And Ling Feng was still in the process of merging with the dragon blood, with no signs of the internal commotion stopping!
Zhou Jin could even hear Ling Feng's rapid heartbeat but dared not approach even an inch!
He absolutely could not disturb Ling Feng.
Gradually, the surrounding temperature became even colder.
Zhou Jin subconsciously injected some medicinal liquid he carried into his body, which could provide him with heat.
His stomach instantly stopped feeling hungry.
However, this concoction was quite expensive, so Zhou Jin was somewhat reluctant to use it.
"It must be getting dark, right? Heavenly Venerate hasn't finished merging yet. I hope those scoundrels don't come at this time!"
Zhou Jin shook his head with a bitter smile, feeling extremely drowsy. He glanced to the side, pulled over a small blanket meant for children, covered himself with three to five small quilts, yawned, and fell asleep.
Ling Feng, however, had completely shielded himself from the outside world. Had a day passed outside?
But in the pitch-black space, Ling Feng felt as if his consciousness had spent a year, enduring torture for a year. His internal power continued to grow.
However, Ling Feng could clearly feel that while this power could make him very strong, it also possessed a terrifying power that could directly destroy him.
This was an extremely terrifying prospect for Ling Feng.
Terrifying power that he couldn't control was very dangerous.
Ling Feng was now struggling to suppress this power.
But as it stood, in this struggle, Ling Feng could only grit his teeth and hold on. It was truly difficult to completely endure it!
*Crack!*
At some point, crisp footsteps could be heard from outside.
Zhou Jin, who was asleep, was suddenly startled awake.
At this moment, Ling Feng's brows furrowed tightly, indicating that he had regained his perception of the outside world. He opened his eyes, and his bloodshot eyes looked to the side.
However, his body was unable to move!
"Zhou Jin!"
"Ah, Heavenly Venerate, yes, yes, I'm sorry, I fell asleep, I..."
Upon hearing Ling Feng call his name, Zhou Jin's entire body tensed up. He quickly hurried over and repeatedly apologized to Ling Feng!
Ling Feng, however, frowned slightly and said coldly to Zhou Jin, "Someone has entered!"
"Ah!? I, I think I heard footsteps too, and they seem to be coming this way. Heavenly Venerate, what should we do?!"
Zhou Jin had some foresight regarding the situation outside and was even clearer that although Ling Feng was speaking now, his body was completely unable to move. This situation was very dangerous!
"I currently have no ability to move my body, as it would be dangerous. However, before I came in, I left a restriction. Take the jade talisman from my waist, activate it, and then... leave from the southwest. There is an exit there!"
Ling Feng said coldly, his final words carrying a tone of command.
Zhou Jin nodded repeatedly at first, but after hearing the latter part, his eyes widened in disbelief: "Heavenly Venerate, you want me to leave!?"
"Yes, go! If you stay, you will die. The strength of the incoming people is not simple!"
Ling Feng said coldly.
This was a perilous situation that Ling Feng had never encountered before. Today was bound to be extremely dangerous, and Ling Feng naturally could not let Zhou Jin stay here.
In past battles, Ling Feng had witnessed too many of his close comrades die before his eyes.
Today, Ling Feng did not want to see that tragic scene repeat itself!
Zhou Jin gritted his teeth immediately: "No, I'm not leaving!"
"Stop the nonsense, go activate the restriction first, or they will be here soon!"
Ling Feng rebuked!
Hearing this, Zhou Jin no longer dared to delay. He quickly walked to the door, activated the jade talisman with his internal true qi. Instantly, almost all his true qi was drained. The jade talisman flickered with spiritual light, and spiritual light suddenly appeared before them!
"Someone's here!"
*Bang bang!*
Suddenly, surprised shouts came from the opposite side, followed by the sound of gunshots!
Zhou Jin could clearly see the people who had arrived through the transparent spiritual light. It was Liu Zhichao and Master Hu, whom he had met before.
However, beside Liu Zhichao was someone who looked somewhat similar to him. Most eye-catching of all was the burly black man!
Zhou Jin watched as the bullets from the opposite side stopped in front of the spiritual light and swallowed with difficulty.
Fortunately, he had listened to Ling Feng's words and activated the restriction in time, otherwise, those two bullets might have sent him to the underworld!
