A moment after Xiao Chuxuan entered the Sacrificial Yuan Cave, she saw another figure before the disciples of the Xiao Family could react. In the blink of an eye, he had entered the Sacrificial Yuan Cave like the wind and shadow. The disciples of the Xiao Family didn't even put down their hands.

Not long after that, Martial King and the disciples of the Xiao Family returned bitterly because they couldn't catch Zi Tianhao.

"Dammit! Which bastard is messing with us?! After chasing him for a long time, he suddenly disappeared. " At this moment, the orange-robed Martial King was also cursing out loudly. He was so angry that he flew into a rage out of humiliation. After that, he asked the few disciples of the Xiao Family who stayed behind to guard the Sacrificial Yuan Cave. “ What happened just now?"

When the disciples of Xiao Family heard this, they immediately looked at each other. They didn't dare to say that there was a sudden flash of strong light from the formation, making it so that they couldn't even open their eyes. In addition, they didn't feel anything unusual just now. In addition, they were afraid of being punished, so they shook their heads at the same time. "No."

"That's good, guard well..." The orange-robed Martial King nodded, then went straight to the side to meditate.

At the same time, a few meters away from the entrance of Sacrificial Yuan Cave, a figure was watching the movement outside the cave.

"They probably didn't know I came in as well." Zi Tianhao looked at him and smiled. He continued, "There must be a reason why this beautiful Chu Chu suddenly barged into this place. It's not as simple as picking herbs. Let me see what secrets are hidden in this cave!" After saying that, he walked forward.

After walking for less than three to four meters, Zi Tianhao saw a stone staircase that kept stretching down. The stone walls on both sides of the stone staircase were very flat, and there was a torch every meter. There was a flickering torch on top of it, and it was obvious that the cave had been rebuilt in the later stages. Therefore, the stone steps would not fluctuate between high and low because of the terrain of the cave. The rugged terrain was hard to walk on. From these two points, it could be seen that the Xiao Family really attached great importance to the Sacrificial Yuan Cave.

However, what kind of secrets were hidden in the Sacrificial Yuan Cave? It made people even more curious!

After releasing the power of the Dog Soul Ring, Zi Tianhao immediately discovered that there were very few residual auras in the Sacrificial Yuan Cave. At most, there were no more than three people, and one of them was Xiao Chuxuan's. This meant that no ordinary people could enter the Sacrificial Yuan Cave. After that, he flew towards the bottom of the stone steps.

The stone steps were much longer than he had imagined. Moreover, they were getting narrower and narrower. In the end, they could only accommodate one person.

After the time it took for an incense stick to burn, Zi Tianhao finally reached the end of the stone steps. At the end of the steps were three arc-shaped forks, each connected to a long passage that led to three rooms.

However, Zi Tianhao quickly discovered that there were clearly many hidden mechanisms and hidden weapons arranged behind these three forks. If he didn't pay attention, he would definitely be in trouble.

"This doesn't look like a place with treasures, it feels more like a prison..." Zi Tianhao muttered. After that, he followed the breath left by Xiao Chuxuan. He entered the left fork and used Shadow Step. He avoided the hidden weapons and kept moving forward along the path.

Not long after, Zi Tianhao reached the end of the path. At the same time, he could vaguely see that there seemed to be a human figure flashing in the chamber in front of him. Just as he was hesitating whether he should go in and check it out, he suddenly heard sounds of conversation coming from inside.

"Third Uncle, I have come to see you." A delicate voice was heard, it was Xiao Chuxuan.

At this moment, one could hear the clanging and rubbing of chains. After which, there was a period of silence. A long time later, an old and hoarse voice sounded, "Is it Xun Er?"

"It's me. I haven't seen Third Uncle for three years. Is Third Uncle in good health?" Xiao Chuxuan replied.

"Third Uncle? ___ asked. It seems like this woman really is Patriarch Xiao's eldest daughter..." The corner of Zi Tianhao's mouth curled up. He knew Xiao Chuxuan's true identity. He wasn't too surprised, because he had already guessed it earlier. However, he didn't expect that he would meet this person so soon.

"However, isn't this woman's Third Uncle Patriarch Xiao's third brother?" Zi Tianhao, who was outside the cave, was also stunned when he heard this. This was because he had learned some things about the Xiao Family during his stay in the Xiao Family. He knew that this Xiao Zhengchun was the second brother of the Xiao Family. His elder brother was the previous family head, and Xiao Zhengchun had a deep grudge with his fourth brother. However, he had never heard of this matter regarding his third brother.

"I have been imprisoned in Sacrificial Yuan Cave for twenty years, how good can I be?" The old voice let out a gloomy and cold laugh.

"Trapped? This Patriarch Xiao's third brother is actually imprisoned in the Sacrificial Yuan Cave? What's going on... " Zi Tianhao became even more puzzled. Obviously, what's going on?

"He found a scapegoat and lured the guards away for me." Xiao Chuxuan said with a gloating expression.

"The scapegoat she was referring to couldn't be me, right? Do I look like a scapegoat? She underestimated me too much! " Zi Tianhao immediately muttered discontentedly.

"Oh, then does he know that you are here to see me?" The old voice sounded very cautious.

"I don't know." Xiao Chuxuan replied.

"It's better to be careful! If your father finds out that you came to see me, even if you are his daughter, he might not show mercy!" The old voice sounded somewhat sinister.

"Third Uncle, your prejudice against my father is still so deep, although I don't know what happened between you two back then. I don't think you can blame my father completely. Could it be that Third Uncle doesn't have any responsibility? If Third Uncle wasn't here, why would he be imprisoned here for twenty years? " Xiao Chuxuan seemed puzzled, because she was wondering why she, Third Uncle, was imprisoned here. She also didn't know that she, Third Uncle, had made a huge mistake back then. She almost caused the entire Xiao Family to fall into a crisis of extinction, so she was imprisoned here. However, her words clearly implied that there was something else hidden behind her actions back then.

"Actually, the mistakes of that year were all caused by your father. However, in order to get rid of the blame, he protected his home. That's why I became like this. Furthermore, I was not the only victim back then... "The old voice was filled with resentment.

"So Patriarch Xiao really is this kind of guy who hides a knife in his smile. Luckily... I saw it earlier. However, what did he mean by the mistake he made in the past? How curious! If I can figure it out, then there will be no doubt that I have a lot of evidence that can be used against the Xiao Family. I didn't expect that I wouldn't be able to pick it for more than a few days in the Xiao Family. It seems like what Martial Emperor Yuv said was right. This Xiao Family is indeed a place of right and wrong!" Zi Tianhao, who was outside the cave, also had a look in his eyes.

" The grudge between you two has nothing to do with me. I just want to cure my illness. And I know that the only one who has a chance to cure me is you, Third Uncle. Otherwise, I wouldn't have risked entering the Sacrificial Yuan Cave to see you three years ago. " Xiao Chuxuan was sure.0

" Have you learned all the alchemy manuals I taught you? " The old voice asked.

"I have learned it a long time ago. I am now trying to concoct the formula that can cure my illness that you gave me, Third Uncle." Xiao Chuxuan replied.
