689: C689 Royal Garden

C689 Royal Garden

"Oh? "Is there such a thing, do you know why exactly?" The eyes of the Huangji Sect disciple lit up.

"Of course I don't know. That's why His Majesty gave the entire country a heavy reward. Anyone who can solve the problem of the Imperial Palace's matters can go to the Imperial Palace's Treasure Repository and receive any treasure they want!" The local youth's face was full of envy as he muttered:

"You have to know, the royal family's treasures are all divine gifts from the heavens. If you can get one, you can exchange it for a fortune that you won't be able to enjoy for ten lifetimes …"

Hearing that, Chen Yu and Huang Zhetian looked at each other.

It seemed like their guesses were correct. The main quest was here.

And from the sound of it, it was very likely to be the second chief in charge, searching for the ancient tomb and killing the guardians!

Since this was the case, the two naturally would not miss this opportunity.

Chen Yu and Huang Zhetian sent a member from the team to the palace to receive their mission.

The process of receiving the mission went smoothly.

Looks like the king of this country has lost his temper due to the monsters underground.

He even felt like he had given up.

No matter who was useful or useless, they could try. Who knows, they might even be able to kill off those monsters!

After accepting the mission, Chen Yu and Huang Zhetian did not hurry to head underground. Instead, they looked around.

Someone from the crowd shouted loudly.

"I once penetrated a thousand meters deep into an underground passage, and I am familiar with the terrain. I can help lead the way for those experts who have not entered the underground passage, each of them is only one hundred silvers, one hundred silvers. You can't buy the loss, you can't get tricked, if you pass by, don't miss it …"

Chen Yu walked towards the direction of the man, and realised that there was someone by his side, and from the looks of it, they had already paid.

"When are you leaving?!" Chen Yu asked.

"We only need to gather ten more people!" Obviously, this person treated the task of leading the way as a business.

"That's good. Including us, it's enough!" With that said, Chen Yu prepared to pay.

But in the next moment, he felt someone tugging at his body, and another young man appeared in front of Chen Yu.

"Don't trust my brother. The palace's underground tunnels lead in all directions and have many branches. The main road to the Monster's lair is extremely dangerous, and the side roads are completely safe. This person must have brought you all along a side road and walked for a kilometer, completely deceiving you! "

Saying this, the young man's face had a proud look, "However, our team is different. Our Qian Feng Escort Office has already sent many people onto the main path of the underground palace. You only need to give me 2000 taels of silver and I guarantee to send you one thousand meters into the main road!"

Chen Yu looked in the direction the young man pointed, and then he saw a few people around the same age as him.

"Huo Ming, my Xinmen Escort Office and your Qian Feng Escort Office don't get involved in each other's affairs, and yet you want to disrupt my business? Isn't it a little disloyal to do this?" The person who called out the price before was extremely displeased. After all, his business had been robbed right in front of him, yet he was still trying to undermine his position here.

"You can't say it like that. What do you mean by stirring up your business? I can't bear to see my brother being cheated …" Huo Guangming said indifferently.

"Are you saying that your escort company had once gone deep into the main road of the monster lair?!" Chen Yu said to Huo Guang.

"That's right. Let me tell you, the boss of our Qian Feng Escort Office is one of the top experts in the Imperial City. Initially, His Majesty was anxious for his boss and the other experts to clear the underground maze. Unfortunately, there are too many monsters in the underground maze, so boss can only return empty-handed. "

Speaking to this point, Huo Guangming said with a proud look, "You have to know, at that time, boss already went nearly ten thousand meters into the underground maze. At that time, I, Qian Feng, had the most authoritative map of the underground maze in my hands, so it was no big deal for me to bring you two a thousand meters away, or even …"

"Even what?!" Chen Yu asked curiously.

"As long as you can pay the price, we can guarantee that you will enter a deeper position!" Huo Ming said in a deep voice.

"Alright, here is 10,000 taels. First, lead us into the maze. If I find the correct path, there will be more!"1

The heroic spirit which Chen Yu displayed immediately made the person who invited the guests very dissatisfied.

He grit his teeth as he looked at Huo Ming and the others. However, there was nothing he could do. In the end, he could only leave in embarrassment.

Huo Guang, who had obtained the ten thousand taels of silver, had an excited expression on his face.

He then beckoned to his comrades behind him, "Come on, we have work to do!"

Soon after, a few young men who were standing by the side also came to Huo Guangming's side.

This time, Qian Feng's escort office had a total of four people.

Of these four people, Huo Guang was the strongest, probably at the late stage of transhabitat.

The other three were two men and one woman.

The woman's name was Huang Yiran, and she also had the strength of a late stage transhabitat. However, from the looks of it, she should be cultivating some kind of feminine cultivation technique, so her strength was slightly weaker than Huo Ming.

The other two men, one of them had a rough appearance, tall stature, and a cultivation base at the middle stage of the transhabitat. Carrying a huge axe behind his back, they should be martial practitioners who had taken the offense.

The other man looked a lot more ordinary, and on his waist was a long sword. His aura was around the middle stage of the transhabitat, a very common type of practitioner.

The three of them were not as knowledgeable as Huo Guang, and were people who did not like to communicate with others.

However, it could be seen that the relationship between the four of them was extremely close.

Chen Yu believed that these four people were definitely his friends.

After a brief explanation, Huo Ming and the other three brought Chen Yu and the other five to the palace's rear garden.

Along the way, they passed through most of the imperial palace.

Chen Yu realized that this palace took up a lot of space. From the front yard to the back yard, the group had walked almost a kilometer.

The entire palace was covered in dark clouds.

As the Emperor had long since moved out of the palace, not many imperial guards or eunuchs or maids could be seen.

The vast imperial palace was cold and cheerless. Adding to the dried up and fresh blood on the ground, it made this place look even more like a cemetery.

After the time it took for an incense stick to burn, the group finally arrived at their destination: the Imperial Palace's rear garden!

The flowers and plants here had already been destroyed to the point of complete desolation.

A straight passage led to the center of the garden.

In that moment, a deep black hole entered everyone's eyes.

"This is the entrance. When you enter the underground maze later, you must follow us. Don't walk around randomly, otherwise, it's easy to get lost …" Huo Ming warned him seriously.

"Don't worry, we will definitely not walk around carelessly." Chen Yu nodded.
