Chapter 130 Su Ming continues to venture deeper
"So we're going into the ancient tomb, right?" Jiang Shaoxu asked.
Jiang Shaotian nodded, opened his backpack, which was filled with all sorts of things: "I've bought all the medicines and stuff, so there's nothing to worry about."
"I remember there was more than just Wu Ku from the Black Vatican when we were in Helan Mountain, right?" Jiang Shaoxu suddenly asked. Although no one had told her this, she held a high position and knew bits and pieces of many things.
She never asked.
Jiang Shaotian paused for a moment, then said, "There is indeed another Black Vatican, but that person is of a higher status than Wu Ku. He is a cardinal named Jiu Ying. I don't know much about Jiu Ying; he is from the previous generation. I just know he is very dangerous."
"Oh...so do you think that Nine-Headed Serpent might come to the ancient capital?"
"It's highly unlikely, because the relationships between the various cardinals of the Black Vatican are not amicable. There should already be one in the ancient capital, so Jiuying wouldn't choose this place. Otherwise, it would be very difficult for Jiuying to go to war with them, which wouldn't be worthwhile for them. There's no need for Jiuying to come to the ancient capital," Jiang Shaotian analyzed.
"So there's still a possibility that he might come, after all, it's just that he's unlikely to come."
"That's the theory, but you can't calculate it that way. The probability is really weird. If the Nine-Headed Serpent has a brain fart, it will come; if its brain is fine, it won't," Jiang Shaotian said.
"Fine, I won't argue with you anymore." Jiang Shaoxu shrugged, looking like she was afraid of him, which hurt Jiang Shaotian a lot. Why did it seem like he was the one who was wrong after all this?
Their operation this time was not public; apart from a few individuals, no one knew their whereabouts. Even if someone saw them, it wouldn't matter; it wasn't a completely covert operation.
And even if someone sees them, they won't know their purpose.
There's no rush to go outside the ancient tomb. They've analyzed the situation, and Han Ji suggested they wait a few more days. With more people going in, they can uncover more information, and going in later would also ensure their safety.
Moreover, they suggested waiting to see if anyone would come forward before making a decision.
Jiang Shaotian didn't care, but he had to be cautious because he was following Jiang Shaoxu, who had come to gain experience.
The only son of the Jiang family, the little princess, and he just happened to be by her side, so they had to be careful. The older generation thought it would be good for Jiang Shaoxu to experience things on her own, and the younger generation thought so too.
In fact, many times there are no problems with the experience, and they have all gone through it, but unfortunately there are two elderly people in the family.
The younger generation had been called back by the old man, and the older ones, in particular, had received special instructions.
Young people and old people have different views. The two old men wished that Jiang Shaoxu could stay in the Jiang family for the rest of her life and wanted to protect her very well.
They were of different ages and had different ideas. The old man was getting old and his thoughts were different from theirs. On his deathbed, he did not want to see any of his descendants leave.
When Shaojun left, the old man was hospitalized for a long time. Although they had no evidence to prove that Shaojun was dead, almost ten years had passed, and that was practically the end of the world.
They went to the hotel to rest; it was the hotel next to the Magic Association.
It was very safe here, and Jiang Shaotian relaxed his vigilance a little.
"Xiao Xu, why do you think Jiu Ying would come to the ancient capital?" Jiang Shaotian asked, but Jiang Shaoxu did not answer. After returning, she went to her room and closed the door to rest.
Jiang Shaotian shrugged, sat on the sofa, turned on his computer, logged onto a website, and began to learn about the latest intelligence from various places.
To reach this position, one should have some understanding of things all over the country.
Jiang Shaoxu lay on the bed, wondering how she knew Jiuying was coming to the ancient capital.
Because a silly bird had previously used sound to transmit a message in her mind, saying that it was the Nine-Headed Serpent and that it was in the ancient capital.
Such behavior is indeed foolish. She didn't believe it either. Whether you'll find out later or not, you don't need to worry about it.
She now wants to leave the ancient capital and go to Helan Mountain to find Su Ming, but she knows that Helan Mountain is a very dangerous place. If she goes there, she will die, and she may not even survive.
After all, she was only a mid-level mage, still some distance from high-level, and her family couldn't possibly send anyone to protect her; the army didn't belong to the Jiang family, but to the people.
The army is for saving lives, not for any one person's possessions.
Several of his cousins were in the same boat. Take Jiang Shaotian, for example. He came here to investigate the Black Vatican. If he was to go to Helan Mountain, he would need orders, otherwise he would never go.
Jiang Shaoxu was a little irritable and kept rolling around on the bed. He was lifted onto the floor and the bed was a mess.
Sitting in the living room, Jiang Shaotian could also sense that he had contacted several people to find out what was going on. He hadn't received any definite information, but he vaguely understood what had happened.
He could only sigh at this; there was nothing he could do.
……
Inside the Helan Mountains, the Nine Ghosts have already arrived. The situation here is vastly different from before. A large number of troops have completely surrounded the Helan Mountains, and several cities around the Helan Mountains have begun to be transformed into military bases. A large number of young people are leaving, unwilling to stay here.
Helan Mountain has become a true demon territory, with a terrifying number of demons within. In just a few years, it has become like this, and most people do not understand what happened to cause this.
Nine Ghosts didn't know either, but she had a vague guess.
It might be because of that guy, but she didn't know exactly what it was.
After the Nine Ghosts left, she didn't go inside but stayed in the city. The mages in the city couldn't find her, so there was nothing to worry about.
Nine Ghosts infiltrated the minds of several high-ranking mages to gather intelligence.
She wasn't brainless, nor did she consider herself invincible. She needed to be prepared for everything she did, and there were several powerful auras in Helan Mountain that were even stronger than hers.
This made Nine Ghosts very wary. Although those guys were resting inside without moving, if Nine Ghosts, an outsider, went in, it might provoke them to take action.
"The situation seems a bit bad," Jiuyou murmured. After obtaining the information, she also understood the recent situation in Helan Mountain.
To be honest, she never expected such a thing to happen, or for the changes to be so drastic.
After staying in the city for two days and obtaining enough intelligence, Jiuyou left the city and entered Helan Mountain.
She could hide herself, and none of the demons could find her. After leaving the Nine Netherworld, she flew directly to the deepest part of Helan Mountain.
Her mark could sense Su Ming and that he was moving deeper into the area, which made Jiuyou Hou narrow her eyes.
Su Ming wasn't stupid; finding directions wasn't difficult for him, but he still kept walking inwards, which was quite intriguing.
After flying slowly into the Nine Netherworld, he wanted to see what had happened.
