Chapter 179: Exploring The City Lord Estate

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

Little Treasure had stopped here, or more accurately, he was hesitating. His nose kept sniffing around in the air, as if he was looking for something.

Lin Bai looked around. This place was close to the forbidden area of the City Lord estate, and there was an abandoned courtyard next to it. Normally, there would be no one around, so the security here was much more lax compared to other heavily guarded places.

However, the more it was like this, the more strange it seemed. The City Lord’s Estate was surrounded like an iron bucket. How could they make such a mistake? Even though this was a corner and it was easy for people to forget about it, it didn’t make sense.

There was only one explanation. The people in power didn’t want anyone to notice this place. The other places were heavily guarded so that it was easier to attract the attention of people with ulterior motives. Thus, this place became inconspicuous and extremely safe.

After all, this was how people thought. The more tightly guarded the place was, the more likely it was to be important. The City Lord’s estate was so vast. If Little Treasure was not there, Lin Bai would probably have overlooked this place as well.

“Looks like this is the place where people can hide in the estate.”

Little Treasure was finally certain. His entire body emitted a soft and bright light, but it was not eye-piercing. Immediately after, the spiritual energy in the air began to swim rapidly. It was as if it had been activated, and it became especially active.

Faint water ripples appeared in the air. At first glance, it seemed to cover the entire abandoned courtyard. Through a layer of darkness, no one could see what was inside.

Little Treasure pointed inside and squeaked. Then, the layer of faint water ripples actually cracked open a crack in the middle. Needless to say, it was definitely the work of Little Treasure. No wonder people were so eager to find treasure-hunting rats.

Lin Bai had never met any other treasure-hunting rats. However, Little Treasure’s various means were heaven-defying. He opened the restriction effortlessly and didn’t attract anyone’s attention.

Lin Bai’s figure flashed and merged into the layer of water ripples. The night was as cold as water. The cold silver light landed on the ground and quietly watched everything. After a while, the water ripples gradually disappeared and the place returned to its usual calm. It was as if nothing had happened.

The world was spinning. Lin Bai took a moment to adapt to the dark environment around him. The night pearls on the wall were emitting a weak light, and only then did he see clearly that he had already gone to another place.

“Could this be the underground of the City Lord’s Estate...”

Lin Bai fumbled his way forward carefully. Looking at the unfathomable tunnel, it was as if he had arrived at the belly of some monster. The road ahead was pitch-black, as if there was no end to it, and he would never be able to reach the end. He could not help but wonder if he would reach hell if he continued walking like this.

A cool breeze blew over, which was enough to prove that the road ahead was connected to the ground. Lin Bai continued to quicken his pace. Since there was no fork in the road, he did not need Little Treasure to lead the way. It laid on Lin Bai’s shoulder.

The man and the mouse walked for half a day. The path ahead gradually became spacious, and the road became smooth. Lin Bai could see that although there were traces of man-made construction, these karst caves and stone pillars seemed to be formed naturally. He could not help but have some doubts in his heart.

If it was man-made, who would have such great wealth and ability to build such a huge building under the City Lord’s Estate? Besides the City Lord himself, Lin Bai could not think of anything else. But why would the City Lord build such a secret passage.

But if it was not man-made, then did the City Lord know about the existence of such a building, or was it discovered later, or did he deliberately build the City Lord’s estate here in order to conceal the existence of this building.

From these karst caves and stone pillars, it could be seen that they were quite old. Lin Bai could not trace what era they were from.

He could not figure it out no matter how much he thought about it. In short, the City Lord’s Estate could be said to be full of oddities. From the beginning when Chen Yan and general manager Zhao told him that the City Lord was suffering from a strange illness to the discovery of such a secret passage, there seemed to be a connection between the two.

“Roar!”

A beast roar pulled Lin Bai’s thoughts back to reality.

He suddenly looked forward. It was still pitch black, and he couldn’t see anything. It was as if the sound just now was just an illusion.

However, Little Treasure was staring in that direction. All the hair on its body stood on end, and its expression was full of vigilance.

It was said that beasts were more sensitive than humans. Moreover, Little Treasure was exceptionally sensitive to danger and could even warn in advance. It was clear that there must be something in front of him.

Although there was nothing unusual about the spiritual energy fluctuations in the air, and it looked exceptionally calm, Lin Bai did not dare to let his guard down.

“Roar!”

The sound came again. This time, Lin Bai heard it clearly. It was coming from up ahead. It was like the roar of a wild beast, and it seemed to be mixed with the painful moans of humans.

Just as Lin Bai was about to approach, he heard faint footsteps. His body flashed, and he quickly hid at the corner.

“What should we do? Not only is the City Lord’s condition getting worse, his attacks are becoming more and more frequent. If this continues, I’m afraid...”

Yan Hua’s face was full of worry. “The City Lord chased us out just now. I’m afraid he’s already –”

Hearing his words, Ren Zeyuan’s heart was in his throat. “Then what should we do now, elder Yan? We have to think of a way. We can’t let the City Lord continue like this.”

Yan Hua sighed helplessly. “The current plan is to gather all the ingredients and refine the pill as soon as possible. Even if the ingredients are complete and the pill is successfully refined, I’m not 100% sure.”

“Then what should we do?”

“We can only do our best and leave it to fate.”

The two people’s expressions were not very good. They were thinking about the City Lord’s illness, but it did not matter.. At this moment, there was another person here.
