C803 Have a Clue

"I would like to ask you this, have you entered any ancient monuments with Tong Wei, Zhan Peng and the rest?"1

Now that Dongyang Zhengkui had become the fish in his hands and he was willing to be slaughtered by him, Chu Hee did not hold back. After all, Chu Hee of the Royal Family was not fond of him and he had never had a good impression of him. It would be a pity if he was the one with the biggest fist!

What Chu Hee said, especially when it came to that name, had a lot of apprehension and guilt in Dongyang Zhengkui's expression. His eyes flickered; it was obvious that there was a lot of uneasiness.

"I... We did enter the ancient monument together! "

Although he didn't know where Chu Hee got the information from, he knew that Chu Hee would have a way. If he lied and was exposed, the problem would become even more serious. After all, his life was in the hands of someone else. If he really angered Chu Hee, he couldn't guarantee that he would still be safe and sound in this world! Furthermore, he had just witnessed Chu Hee's power. Even if Chu Hee were to kill him here, he wouldn't be able to do anything.

"Then, do you know where Zhan Peng is?"

Chu Hee's expression lit up. This was the first time he had heard such a clue. At least, this clue was a type of harvest for him. After all, there was still no beginning to the mission to enter the ancient monument, so this was already a huge breakthrough for Chu Hee.

"This... If I tell you, will you let us go? "

Dongyang Zhengkui seemed to want to bargain. Now that their lives were in the hands of Chu Hee, the current situation seemed to be his only bargaining chip. It seemed like he did not want to pass this information to Chu Hee so easily.

"If you tell me honestly, I won't mind letting you leave this ancient monument alive!"

Chu Hee glanced at Dongyang Zhengkui and sneered in his heart. However, he remained calm and expressed his stance with a serious tone.

As far as Chu Hee was concerned, the grudge between him and the Royal Family could not be resolved so easily. However, he still had a lot of things to do in this ancient monument. Even if he wanted to settle with the Royal Family, there were only a few people here. Even if they were allowed to live for a few more days, it would be fine! Furthermore, if he was forced into a corner and Dongyang Zhengkui refused to tell the truth, he would lose this important clue!

After all, this ancient monument was extremely spacious. If he were to rely on himself and his group to search this place bit by bit, he would not know how long it would take to find it. The danger involved in this matter was not something they could be 100% sure they would be able to pass safely. Therefore, as long as Chu Hee could get him to open his mouth, he wouldn't lose anything, even if Chu Hee had to make a temporary concession.

Dongyang Zhengkui didn't know what Chu Hee was thinking at the moment. His initial nervousness became calmer at this moment. The reason why he asked Chu Hee to do so was because he was worried that if he told the truth, Chu Hee would be the one to kill him. After all, from the looks of the situation in front of them, Chu Hee seemed to have some sort of close relationship with Zhan Peng. If they didn't prepare well for the future and really angered Chu Hee, they still wouldn't have any chance of survival.

It was because of this that he felt more at ease when Chu Hee made such a promise.

"Back then, when we entered this ancient monument, by chance, we also entered a nameless island. The island did not seem to be filled with dangers, but it was extremely peaceful. Furthermore, it was also filled with many treasures. It's a pity that we are too weak. We only took out a few treasures from the treasure caves around the island. "

"Since there's no danger there, why did the remaining people disappear without a trace when you and Tongwei left without a hitch?"

Although Chu Hee was quietly listening to his story, he still couldn't help but ask the question in his heart.

"In the face of the temptation of those treasures, every single one of us has long since turned red. It was originally Zhan Peng who led us into the ancient monument. As our boss, if we want to take these items for ourselves first, then we must first get his permission. That's why we treated him as a thorn in our side! "

"However, the other three people are extremely protective of him. Tong Wei and I are not their match at all. Furthermore, all of those treasures were inside the cave, sealed by the Spiritual Force. If we want to take the treasures, we simply don't have the strength to do so. He could only take away a few low-grade treasures that weren't sealed at all. But in our opinion, these treasures are already powerful enough! "

"Did you harm them in secret?"

Chu Hee's face darkened when he heard this, and the aura around him seemed to have turned ice-cold. According to Dongyang Zhengkui, life and death battles were inevitable between the two of them. After all, in front of an absolute treasure, greed like that had already caused them to lose all humanity. Not to mention those treasures that they could not resist; to cultivators, these things were more important than their lives!

Although Chu Hee didn't finish listening to his whole story, his heart had already become gloomy and he was almost certain of the answer. After all, throughout all these years, Zhan Peng hadn't received any news. If he was still alive in this world, then he definitely wouldn't be so indifferent.

Dongyang Zhengkui quickly waved his hand. "No, no. Zhan Peng is the most powerful cultivator amongst us. With the protection of the other three, how can we harm him?"

"So he's still alive? Then what exactly did you do to him? "

Chu Hee was not completely relieved by Dongyang Zhengkui's answer. As a first-hand source of information, Chu Hee knew that things were definitely not that simple. Based on their Dongyang Royal Clan's shrewdness and insidiousness, they would definitely not let this kind of thing go so easily!

"Because we wanted to obtain this treasure, Tongwei and I had secretly poisoned them! It's just that we don't really know what that poison is, and we found it in that treasure cave. When that poison exploded, they were all sealed in that treasure cave by ice. However, to our senses, there were always the fluctuations of Spiritual Force around them. Their auras seemed to be extremely stable, not like death at all. That kind of situation is too weird, but there are too many things in this ancient monument that are beyond our imagination, so we didn't care about them! "
