An old man with white hair like a waterfall and a white goatee, dressed in a long gray robe, sat on the armchair. He held a cup of fragrant tea in one hand, savoring it slowly. He looked at the red carp in the pond outside the house, feeling very satisfied.
Hurried footsteps sounded, but the old man didn’t care. He continued to enjoy the tea and fish, enjoying himself.
“Elder! My men said that they saw flames soaring into the sky in the suburbs, and there were fierce sounds of fighting. I think this must be Lin Bai’s group. Should we send someone?!”
A square-faced, well-built middle-aged man knelt on one knee not far from the old man, and his voice was sonorous and powerful.
The old man didn’t even look at him from the beginning to the end. Not only did the middle-aged man not mind, but he was already used to the old man’s attitude.
“No need.” The old man’s tone was light, but there was an unquestionable tone.
“But, Lin Bai is the devil. If we don’t help now, in the future…” The middle-aged man became excited and subconsciously refuted the old man’s words. After realizing that he was being presumptuous, he lowered his head again.
The old man with a goatee slowly put down the teacup in his hand and held the mouth of the teacup with one index finger. He grabbed a handful of bait with the other hand and threw it into the small pond not far away.
The moment the bait was sprinkled into the pool water, the small pool that was originally calm became boiling. The mouths of dozens of red carps kept opening and closing, and water splashed in all directions.
“The current capital is just like this originally calm pool. However, if there was a handful of bait, it would make it seem as if it was boiling. Therefore, we have to sit on the sidelines and observe the situation. We can not recklessly enter.”
The goateed old man’s tone was still calm. He was not angry at the middle-aged man’s rudeness.
“Yes, I understand!” The middle-aged man’s eyes looked at the pool water, as if he had thought of something.
“I will go down and let the other disciples do as usual. I don’t want to alert the enemy and let them see the flaws. However, if anything unexpected happens, I will pretend that I didn’t see it…” The middle-aged man said his plan.
The goateed old man heard it and nodded slowly. He picked up the steaming tea and began to taste it slowly. The pond water in front of him became calm again.
The middle-aged man saw this and knew what the old man meant. He didn’t say anything more. He slowly stood up and retreated outside the house.
The footsteps outside the house gradually disappeared.
The old man muttered to himself as he looked at the pool of water. After a long while, he said, “The water in the capital city is really muddy this time.”
…
The capital city, the City Lord’s estate, underground secret chamber.
The secret chamber was dark and quiet. Even the faint sounds of breathing were extremely noticeable in this spacious secret chamber.
“This damned place, why are there so many layers? Fu Hu, are you f* cking lost? We’ve been walking for so long, we haven’t even seen the City Lord’s shadow much less Lin Bai and the others.”
Fatty could not help but mutter.
Not long ago, after escaping from Yang Xing and the others, he and Fu Hu had escaped to the depths of the secret chamber. When Fatty was at a loss on the maze-like path nearby, Fu Hu had volunteered to lead the way.
In the end, after leading the way for a long time, Yang Xing was indeed gone. They had also reached the depths of the secret chamber, but Fatty felt that the two of them were walking in circles, not even seeing the traces left behind by the City Lord.
“Cough cough.” Fu Hu coughed softly. His face was cold and there was no awkwardness to be seen, but there was still some unspeakable expression in the depths of his eyes.
He had lost his way!
“Say something and give me a definite message. Don’t let your fat grandfather, me, walk so much in vain. If you end up telling me that you’ve lost your way…”
Fatty’s voice became cold, and his clenched fists also made cracking sounds. His pair of eyes stared at Fu Hu, causing him to feel a little cold.

Fu Hu was in the wrong in this matter, so he could only swallow his anger. However, he still put on a calm expression, he pointed at a very small cave entrance. “See, that’s the place. Let’s go over there and take a look. Don’t worry, there will definitely be new discoveries.”
“I’ll trust you again.” Fatty shook his head. At this moment, he did not know how to walk. Even if he lost his way, he could only follow Fu Hu and try every direction.
Fatty sucked in his stomach and clumsily walked into the cave. Just as he was getting irritated by the narrow passage, he was about to open his mouth to complain when he saw that the other side of the passage was extremely spacious, so he put away the dissatisfaction in his heart.
“Tell me, how did Yang Xing suddenly become so strong? Generally speaking, this kind of medicine has very strong side effects, and the time for his strength to increase is very short. Tell me…”
Fatty was really bored as he walked, so he found a topic to talk about. Moreover, he had been thinking about whether he should give it a try and kill Yang Xing.
Fu Hu shook his head. “Since Yang Xing dared to take it in front of us, it means that the medicine is not ordinary. Maybe it is a permanent increase in strength?”
Fu Hu actually did not know the answer in his heart. There was only one reason why he said that. If Fatty asked him to return the way he came, then he really did not know how to return the way he came..
Fu Hu was determined not to tell fatty about this matter.
“Speaking of which, this secret chamber is very strange. It should not have been created by the city Lord. It might have existed here before him.”
Fu Hu hurriedly changed the topic, and his eyes looked around.
“I think so too, but what is the meaning of the existence of this place…” Ever since Fatty came to the depths of the secret chamber, this question had been on his mind, and he could not get rid of it no matter how hard he tried.
Rumble!!!
Right at this moment, the earth shook and the mountains shook. A bottomless crack appeared on the ground under their feet, and huge rocks kept falling from the ceiling.
“F * ck, what’s going on? Is this place going to collapse?!”
“I don’t know, but finding a safe place is more important.”
Fatty and Fu Hu hurriedly dodged and came to a slightly safer place.
The tremors gradually subsided, but the darkness in front of them continued to emit tremors. Fatty and Fu Hu could only stay here for a short while.
Boom!
Buzz!
Ping!
“Eh? Why is this sound not right?” Fatty frowned. The tremors in the darkness gradually turned into the sound of metal colliding and fighting.
“Could it be Lin Bai, the City Lord, and the others?!” Fu Hu’s eyes lit up.
Finally, he wasn’t lost anymore!
The two of them looked at each other and sneaked into the darkness, trying their best not to make a sound. When they arrived in the distance, the sound by their ears grew closer and closer.

“Who are you exactly? How dare you ruin my plans? I will definitely tear you into pieces and skin you alive!”
A ruthless and cruel voice filled with monstrous anger echoed in the darkness.
Fatty and Fu Hu were shocked. They were extremely familiar with this voice. It was the City Lord!
“Hahaha, to be hated so much by you, I feel that the wounds on my body are no longer painful. Then we shall meet again in the future. No, we shall not meet again!”
