TFHS: Chapter 125

Bai Qiaomo was studying the formation. Meanwhile, Feng Ming followed his instructions and sneaked out to see the situation of the others. He found that they were also dismantling the formation.

It wasn’t known if the original owner of this relic mansion asked someone to arrange it or if he knew formations himself. There were layers of formations set up in the mansion.

If they wanted to reach key places such as the training room, study, collection room, etc., they would need to dismantle the formation first.

Even the spiritual plant garden outside had a formation set up, making it impossible to enter.

It was due to this that the 50 people who came in didn’t disperse and acted together as a group. It seemed quite harmonious at present.

However, Feng Ming didn’t think this superficial harmony could last forever. It just didn’t involve the distribution of benefits yet.

Feng Ming returned the same way and told Bai Qiaomo what he saw.

Bai Qiaomo felt that God was helping him. “This situation is quite favorable to us. If we understand the formation thoroughly, we can use the formation to hide our figures and avoid being exposed.

Feng Ming nodded repeatedly with a bad smile in his eyes. “I have another good idea.”

The moment he saw this smile, Bai Qiaomo knew that this so-called good idea was to deal with others. This person was most likely Wu Yingyan.

Junior Brother Ming had always kept this incident in mind and wanted to get revenge.

Bai Qiaomo smiled cooperatively and asked, “What good idea?”

Feng Ming chuckled and expressed his thoughts. He wanted Bai Qiaomo to use the formation to trick the man surnamed Wu.

“Once they split up, can you create some noise to make Wu think there is a treasure hidden somewhere? Maybe he will come alone. Wait for him to fall into the trap and use the formation to attack him. Don’t kill him, just destroy his dantian.”

“We won’t do anything excessive. We will just return the same as what he did to you.”

It would be too easy to kill him directly. Feng Ming’s idea was to let the man surnamed Wu also experience the feeling of having his dantian destroyed to see if his status in the Wu family could remain the same or if the Wu family would try their best to find something to repair his dantian.

“Do you think that after Wu’s dantian is destroyed, the noble concubine of the Wu family in the imperial family will ask the emperor for pills or heavenly treasures to repair the dantian?”

This thing should be in the imperial treasury. Even if it wasn’t in the treasury, the emperor should have it.

However, this type of thing was rare. If one was used, then there would be one less. It depended on how much the noble concubine valued the nephew called Wu Yingyan, how much the emperor loved the noble concubine, and if he was willing to use it on Wu Yingyan.

The more Bai Qiaomo listened, the bigger the smile on his face became. He also thought this method was very good, especially when Junior Brother Ming came up with it for him.

Regardless of whether it was consistent with his plan or not, he would work hard and not let Junior Brother Ming down.

As for the assumptions mentioned by Junior Brother Ming, they didn’t exist at all. After Wu Yingyan left the Netherworld Valley, the operation in Imperial City should’ve already begun.

Maybe those princes had discovered the mineral veins hidden by the Wu family and were waiting for the opportunity to attack the Wu family.

By then, Wu Yingyan’s dantian would be destroyed, and the Wu family would fall. Wu Yingyan would be in an even more miserable situation than before.

It was so perfect. It was indeed a great idea that Junior Brother Ming came up with.

Bai Qiaomo smiled and said, “I think I should be able to do it. I will try my best.”

Feng Ming happily patted Bai Qiaomo on the shoulder. “That’s great. I leave it all to you, Brother Bai. Thank you for your hard work. I’m just waiting to see the big show.”

If it was a different situation, Feng Ming would’ve wanted to laugh with his hands on his hips.

Look at the good idea he thought of. He should attack head-on when facing the enemy. It was very annoying when seeing the guy surnamed Wu jumping in front of him.

As for Feng Linlang, Feng Ming didn’t want to do anything to her.

It was because he felt that the best revenge would be him and Brother Bai went higher and higher, reaching a point beyond Feng Linlang’s reach.

Bai Qiaomo studied the formation and was able to master more and more of the mansion’s formations. This greatly facilitated Feng Ming’s activities.

Bai Qiaomo told Feng Ming all the formations he had mastered, so Feng Ming’s range of activities became wider. He often sneaked out to see the progress of these people.

He had full confidence in Bai Qiaomo’s formation skills. Sure enough, the combined speed of those who came couldn’t dismantle the formations as fast as Bai Qiaomo alone.

The attitude of these formation masters was very arrogant. Feng Ming saw that Senior Shi was very frustrated staying here.

This was indeed the case. He just asked the formation master a question, and the formation master replied impatiently that he should do it on his own if he had the ability. In other words, don’t point fingers if he didn’t have the ability.

Shi Yan was so angry that he cursed. “D*mn, if I had known, I wouldn’t have come to this place. If I had known this, I would’ve slashed the relic mansion with a knife regardless of the formations or not.”

“Boss, calm down. Why bother with that type of person?” His two subordinates advised.

They had a dispute after they came in. Shi Yan’s opinion was to break it directly with force. He didn’t believe that the combined strength of the essence dan realm experts present couldn’t break the formation of the mansion.

However, several parties disagreed with his approach and were worried that violently breaking the formation would destroy everything in the mansion.

The parties disagreed because they had formation masters with them. They were very patient. Once the formation was dismantled, they would have the greatest credit and could gain the most treasures.

If Shi Yan, a brute, used brute force to open the formation, then how could they ask to select the treasure first?

It definitely wouldn’t happen.

They also secretly persuaded two groups of people to side with them. This meant that even fewer people agreed with Shi Yan’s approach.

Shi Yan looked like a rough person, but he wasn’t stupid. How could he not know that these people had hooked up in front of him?

Shi Yan was really unhappy and angry.

Feng Ming happened to see this scene. He turned around and told it to Bai Qiaomo. Bai Qiaomo said thoughtfully, “I’ll see if I can help Senior Shi later.”

“Okay, I don’t want to see Senior Shi being bullied by these aristocratic families either.”

Feng Ming didn’t know that when he turned to leave, Shi Yan glanced in the direction of the formation where Feng Ming had been hiding.

He touched his head and said to his subordinates, “Did you feel someone’s eyes looking at us just now? It was from that direction. However, I didn’t feel any hostility.”

The two subordinates were shocked. “It can’t be. There are no living creatures in this relic mansion, right? Boss, what about now?”

Shi Yan shook his head. “It is gone. But don’t worry, it isn’t hostile. You know that my intuition is quite accurate.”

Without this intuitive perception of danger, he would’ve died many times. How could he make the Golden Eagle mercenary group bigger?

Having said that, the two subordinates became more vigilant. The subordinate who knew a bit about formations went over there to take a look. Unfortunately, he could only look but not move. He couldn’t open the formation to see what was inside.

This feeling wasn’t the first time for Shi Yan.

His subordinates suspected that it was a living creature that originally existed in the mansion, but Shi Yan somehow thought of his grandson’s two benefactors, the Qiao brothers.

If the black crystal turtle woke up and swallowed the properties of the seven leaf insect flower plant, it might be able to enter the Netherworld Valley. This meant the brothers might’ve already entered the valley, and even entered the relic mansion.

If they really entered as he suspected but were never discovered, the only thing that could explain it was that one of the two of them was proficient in formations. His level of formations was higher than the formation masters who entered.

Was that possible? The Qiao brothers were still young.

But he also thought of the Wen and Wu brothers, who appeared in the Xuanyue Secret Realm. Among them was a young cultivator called Wu Hai, who was very skilled in formations.

The commotion was quite big, so even their Golden Eagle mercenary group had talked about it.

Suddenly, Shi Yan’s expression became strange, and he muttered in his heart, ‘Wen Ze, Wu Hai, Qiao Ze, and Qiao Hai. They are both a pair of brothers. Is this possible?’

One of the Qiao brothers might be very good at formations, and Wu Hai was a fourth-grade formation master. It was hard for Shi Yan to believe that two equally young cultivators with excellent formation skills would appear in a short period of time.

It was very possible that these two people were the same person.

The whereabouts of the Wen Wu brothers couldn’t be found. Then the Qiao brothers suddenly appeared in Nandou Town. It was suspicious.

After his weird expression, Shi Yan became cheerful again. All his previous frustrations dissipated.

At this moment, he really wished that the Qiao brothers had come in and became the oriole after the mantis.

Oh my god, that would be really interesting. He really wanted to see these guys deflated.

“Boss, what are you laughing at?” The subordinates noticed that Shi Yan’s mood had improved.

Shi Yan waved his big hand. He couldn’t express his guess whether it was true or not. He had to keep it a secret. “It’s nothing. I just thought of something happy. I have to wait anyway, so let me be happy. Miao’er is still waiting for me outside. Why get angry with them?”

“Boss is right.” None of his two subordinates doubted it.

Just as he was talking, the people in front of him cheered. Shi Yan didn’t need to look to know that they had taken apart a formation. He waved his big hand again. “Let’s go and take a look. No one can take what is ours!”

Since when had he, Shi Yan, been weak? No one could stand in his way.

Shi Yan rushed over with his two subordinates and found that the people in front had already rushed into the main hall of the relic mansion.

Shi Yan followed them inside without hesitation. He asked his subordinates to grab anything good they had seen. There was no need to reason with rough people like them.

At this time, Bai Qiaomo led Feng Ming deeper into the formation.

He wasn’t in a hurry to open a certain room and harvest some treasure inside. Instead, he was studying the formations while trying to find the core hub of the entire relic mansion’s formation.

If he found this thing, he would be able to control the entire mansion. At that time, the cultivators in the mansion wouldn’t have the final say. If he wasn’t happy, then he could kick them all out.

Feng Ming no longer dared to move around. He glanced in the direction of the group of people, although he couldn’t see anything. “How are those people doing now?”

Bai Qiaomo continued to dismantle the formation without raising his head. “The formation in the main hall has been opened. Everyone should’ve gone in.”

“Oh, that’s okay. We are much faster than them. Even if they join forces, they are no match for Brother Bai alone.”

Bai Qiaomo smiled. He couldn’t admit defeat just because of Junior Brother Ming’s words.

“It is almost time. I’ve almost found the core hub. Then Junior Brother Ming can play whatever you want.”

Feng Ming was so happy that he almost jumped up. Brother Bai was too powerful.

If he wanted to achieve 70% then Bai Qiaomo would give 100%, no, even 120%. It was always a surprise.
