Old Man Li slowly recounted the events that unfolded that year. As he spoke, his words were filled with fear and trembling.

That year, a friend of mine found me. He told me that he had discovered a precious mineral ground and wanted me to go with them. At that time, I wasnt far from Great Bridge City. Although I had heard how powerful it was, I had not yet seen it with my own eyes. That was why I didnt really believe it.

I entered the Great Bridge Mountain with them. In the beginning, it was still alright. Once we entered the mines, we discovered that the aura of an ore vein really was present. We went crazy and, as cultivators, the amount of hards.h.i.+ps we had gone through those past few days was something I doubt that you can imagine. Which was why, when danger descended upon us, not a single person noticed it.

In the beginning, we just felt a little cold. Then, we suddenly realised that something was attacking us. However, we didnt see anyone, so we suspected that someone was dealing with someone else in the shadows. However, we realised later that there wasnt someone like that. We had just been attacked by a secret art.

More than half of our team ended up dead, and we eventually came back to our senses from our overexcitement. This was no precious mineral ground, this was a restricted death area. As such, someone began to retreat. The remaining group of people split into two groups. One group wanted to return while the other wanted to explore the mine.

I was one of the less brave ones, so I supported the notion of leaving. Even so, as we escaped the ore mountain, very few of us survived. By the time we managed to leave that area, my friend and I were the only ones left.

We thought that even the two of us would die inside, but we didnt think that we would finally be able to escape. Only when we had left the area completely and were no longer able to feel the chill in the air were we finally certain that we had really survived.

Sima You Yue and Wu Lingyu exchanged glances. They had their guesses.

Old Man Li continued speaking.

We stayed there to treat our wounds, and waited there for two months. We didnt see a single one of them emerge. There were dozens of teams, but we were the only two left in the end.

Later on, I left the place and my friend headed to Great Bridge City. We would contact each other occasionally. He said that some people discovered that place again later on. However, those people met the same downfall as we did. They didnt manage to obtain anything. Furthermore, many of them were completely wiped out in there.

So youre saying that the ore there has not been excavated yet?

It hasnt. However, it is now under supervision. Old Man Li said.

Hua Wu Xiang selected the top talents and placed them there. Could it be for this reason? Sima You Yue guessed.

Its not impossible! Wu Lingyu thought of this as well.

The situation that happened with Old Man Li and the others had happened dozens of years ago. He also said that the ore mountain was already under supervision of the authorities. Despite that, it was not made public. This proved that the authorities were powerless against it as well. Hua Wu Xiang likely thought of using this method to select the top talents as well as deal with the problem regarding this ore vein.

Hehe, I wonder whether or not you guys have the means to deal with this problem. Sima You Yue smiled rather sinisterly.

Are you interested in this?

Of course. Knowing that there was treasure, how could she step aside? This was too unlike her usual character.

After all, Hua Wu Xiang was Xiao Hes greatest financial advisor. Any money he obtained was equivalent to Xiao He obtaining money, which meant Qing Hun would obtain money. If he gained power, then Xiao He would grow in power, which meant Qing Hun would grow in power.

Since they were enemies, it was a given that she would hope for them to fail. As long as she was able to do something that would affect Xiao He, she would willingly go and get it done.

It was a pity that Xiao He had not even appeared in front of her before, but she had already blacklisted him.

Old Man Li saw that the two of them still harboured a desire to go to the ore vein and turned pale with fright. He blurted, I told you these things because I wanted you to understand the situation over there, and to prepare your hearts.

He didnt want them to send themselves to death there.

I know, but knowing that theres treasure here, how can I let it go?

But that place is too dangerous. Furthermore, even without mentioning that undetectable energy, that place is already under the control of the authorities, and Im guessing that it is heavily guarded. If you want to s.n.a.t.c.h that ore mountain, it is simply too difficult.

We know. That is why we didnt plan to head there right after arriving at Great Bridge City. Sima You Yue said seriously.

Old Man Li: .

Uncle Li, you do not have to be too worried or scared. You just have to take us near the ore vein. You dont have to come in with us. Sima You Yue said.

That alright. Old Man Li sighed, Although I cannot interfere with or sway your decision, I still hope that you will reconsider this. Once you go there, you will have to face the natural forces and the guards of the City Lords Manor. It will be a dual-faceted issue.

Thank you, I will seriously consider this problem. Sima You Yue did not reject him immediately. However, Old Man Li could tell that she did not take his words to heart.

He left with a sigh. It was difficult for him to encounter such rich people, and he hoped that their abilities matched with the strength that they portrayed.

After he left, Wu Lingyu set up a barrier in the house.

What do you think about what he said? Sima You Yue asked.

Are you talking about the hidden power in the ore vein?

Mm, I have a feeling that this is rather similar to the force inside the ore vein, but Im not too certain.

The force has been the ore veins power all along, and isnt rare to commoners, but to reach the extent of the situation that Uncle Li described, isnt something that an ordinary force can do. Wu Lingyu a.n.a.lysed.

It seems like we wont be able to make any judgments without going there personally. SIma You Yue was rather excited. She secretly wondered how likely their chances of success would be.

As long as it was due to a force, with Mi Er around, no matter how powerful it was, they would be able to deal with it nicely and easily. Otherwise, this venture would be rather dangerous.

That cant be the only thing you take into consideration. If there are ma.s.sive military troops standing guard, if we want to obtain the ore vein fully, we will have to spend a bit of thought on it.

Mm hmm, lets go find out more about the situation before deciding.

The winds wrecked the place for around half a month. Once it was over, those from Wu Xiang City immediately flared up. Actually, most of those who were cheering were those who had only entered the city in the last few days. If not because they had rushed up, the outcome might have been like those people that had been swept into the skies..

The great array that was protecting the city was turned off, and those who had come to hide wanted to leave. However, there was a wave of activity that suddenly started from the City Lords Manor.

City Lord has advanced! City Lord has advanced!

The citizens inside the city cheered excitedly, giving Sima You Yue a headache. Once the Tempest Season was over, those people wanted to capture them. It seemed like a battle was certain to break out. Quickly, a group of people surrounded the bottom of their inn.

Sima You Yue saw the people walking with Bai Mei Gui and pursed her lips. Could it be that they were coming to look for her the moment they emerged?
