Just as Nie Tian was feeling puzzled, two figures in a VIP box in a teahouse in the distance had already seen everything.
One of the two figures was a thin and short old man with a face full of wrinkles. It was as if he was a skeleton wrapped in a skin bag. Moreover, this skeleton was very small, only the height of a thirteen or fourteen-year-old child.
However, the old man's eyes were very spirited. They shone brightly and revealed a strange expression.
Sitting opposite the old man was a young woman in snow-white clothes.
The young woman was spotless, like an orchid in an empty valley. Her eyes were looking into the distance, in the direction where Nie Tian and the others were.
Although they were thousands of meters apart, the woman could see everything clearly.
Her eyes were icy blue and seemed to contain an extreme coldness. If one looked at them, they would be able to freeze people.
If Nie Tian was here, he would definitely scream because this young woman was none other than the beautiful Dean of Tyrant Cloud Academy, Ruoyu Qianye!
"Elder Li, are the three of them Uncle Lei's sons?" Ruoyu Qianye suddenly asked with a rare hint of joy in her eyes.
"Yes." The old man called Elder Li bowed slightly and said respectfully, "Saintess, the three of them are Lei Fuyi's orphans. When the Sacred Palace was destroyed, Lei Fuyi and the Palace Lord chose to live and die with the Sacred Palace and asked this old servant and the others to leave with the women and children of the Sacred Palace. This old servant was useless. The Sacred Palace had more than three hundred children, but only managed to protect the three of them. "
As Elder Li said this, many past events reverberated in his mind. His withered face was soaked with tears.
Ruoyu Qianye looked calm and said indifferently, "Elder Li, the Bloody Slaughter Palace no longer exists. Don't call me Saintess in the future."
"Saintess!" Elder Li's body trembled when he heard this. He immediately knelt down and said sorrowfully, "Although the Sacred Palace no longer exists, Saintess, you are still alive. As long as you are alive, there will always be hope for the Sacred Palace. "
Ruoyu Qianye did not look at Elder Li. Instead, she closed her icy-blue eyes and sighed softly. Her beautiful face revealed a faint trace of fatigue.
After a short while, Ruoyu Qianye opened her eyes again and restored her usual coldness, saying, "Get up, Elder Li. Just call me Miss in the future. "
"Yes, Saint … Miss." Old Li replied respectfully. After pondering for a moment, he said, "Miss, Da Hu and the others have been cultivating with me since they were young. Although their strength isn't at the peak, they can still hold their own. Moreover, they have entered the Land of Bloody Massacre before. If Miss really wants to enter the Ancient Bloody Massacre Tomb, then bring them along. The three of them were worthy of the young lady's complete trust. He will definitely be able to … "
"No need." Before Elder Li could finish, Ruoyu Qianye interrupted him and said, "Let the three of them stay in Heaven Luo City. I know the Heaven Luo City Lord, I'll greet him later. "
"Miss." Elder Li furrowed his brows and finally said, "Miss, the Ancient Bloody Massacre Tomb is extremely dangerous. Every time someone enters, less than one in a hundred can come out safely. Moreover, those who come out are all … This old servant still feels that Miss shouldn't put yourself in danger. You are the last hope of the Sacred Palace. "
"Elder Li, don't try to persuade me anymore. I've already made up my mind." Ruoyu Qianye's tone was calm, but it was clear that she was determined.
The Ancient Bloody Massacre Tomb was an ancient Demon King ruin that only opened once every five years. It was rumored that there were countless ancient pill recipes and peerless martial skills in the tomb, as well as many rare medicinal herbs.
However, the Bloody Slaughter Ancient Tomb was extremely dangerous. Every time it opened, less than one in a hundred people would come out alive. What was even stranger was that every person who came out of the tomb would either become a lunatic or an idiot.
It was rumored that there were ancient Demon Beasts in the Ancient Bloody Massacre Tomb. Those who entered the tomb were either devoured by the Demon Beasts or scared to death by them.
"Miss, can you really not wait until the next time the tomb opens?" Elder Li knew his Miss's temperament very well. Although he knew that there was no hope, he still asked.
Ruoyu Qianye shook her head slightly and said, "The next time the tomb opens is five years later. I can't wait. With my current body, can I live for another five years? "
The latter sentence, Ruoyu Qianye only said in her heart and did not tell Elder Li.
Ruoyu Qianye was currently at the 1st True Element Tier. According to the lifespan of an ordinary martial artist, she could live for 500 years.
When a martial artist cultivated, their physique was far superior to ordinary people. Every time their strength increased by a realm, they could increase their lifespan by 100 years.
However, Ruoyu Qianye had her own difficulties. Her pupils were ranked 7th in the Innate Ten Great Abnormal Pupils, the Nine Color Pupils. It was even more terrifying than the Purple Demon Eyes of the Nine Emperors of the Heaven Realm.
Moreover, Ruoyu Qianye's Nine Color Pupils had already opened. The first pupil was the Blue Pupil, so her pupils were ice blue in color.
Opening the Nine Color Pupils not only gave Ruoyu Qianye stronger combat strength, but it also had a side effect, and that was to devour the blood energy in the body.
Blood energy was the essence of a martial artist's life force. If the blood energy was weak, the martial artist's body would also be weak.
Therefore, Ruoyu Qianye knew that if she did not find a way to counteract the power of the Nine Color Pupils' Blood Devour, she would not be able to live for another five years, or even a year.
What was even more fatal was that if she opened the second pupil of the Nine Color Pupils, the power of the Blood Devour would increase exponentially. At that time, her lifespan would be even shorter.
The Ancient Bloody Tomb opened once every five years. According to the current situation, Ruoyu Qianye could not wait for another five years. Therefore, she would not miss this opportunity. She must go.
Ruoyu Qianye was an orphan adopted by the previous dean of Tyrant Cloud Academy.
Ever since she was young, she did not know about her past, until Elder Li appeared in Blue Cloud City five years ago and found her.
Through Elder Li, Ruoyu Qianye found out that she was actually someone from the Three Thousand Small Worlds' most dangerous place, the Bloody Massacre Grounds. Furthermore, she was the Holy Maiden of the Bloody Massacre Palace that once ruled the Bloody Massacre Grounds.
Twenty years ago, the Bloody Massacre Palace was destroyed by a mysterious force. At that time, Ruoyu Qianye was still an infant and was not in the Bloody Massacre Palace.
After finding out about her past, Ruoyu Qianye fell into deep pain. The burden on her shoulders suddenly became heavier. It was as though there was a mountain pressing on her chest. She could not breathe at any time.
Ruoyu Qianye's Nine Color Pupils had opened five years ago. Therefore, she had endured the devour of blood energy for five whole years.
The pain of five years was something that no one could understand.
"Elder Li, go and tell the Lei brothers to stay in Heaven Luo City. I will go and register for the Dragon Blood Martial Meet. "As Ruoyu Qianye spoke, she slowly stood up and left.
This time, the reason why Ruoyu Qianye had appeared in Heaven Luo City was also for the Dragon Blood Stone.
'Dragon Blood' was a rare treasure. If she could obtain it, not only could it help Ruoyu Qianye resist the power of the Nine Color Pupils, it could also strengthen her martial body.
"Alright!" Elder Li agreed and said: "Miss, if that little fellow called Nie Tian can really fulfill his promise, I will let Da Hu and the other two keep the three drops of 'Dragon Blood' and give them all to Miss."
"No need." Ruoyu Qianye said softly and left.
