What Ye Xiao said was indeed shocking, but there was a certain degree of logic to it.
People would not disappear into thin air. Even if they disappeared into thin air, they had to leave some traces.
The only explanation was that he had entered another space. This was a very reasonable explanation.
Chu Xiu asked, "What happened after that? Why didn't the Wang and Zhou families explore that place? Why did they turn against each other now? "
Ye Xiao said, "According to my inquiry, the Zhou family said that although the space was weak, it was a complete space. It was only because Ning Xuanji and Dugu Weiwei were too strong that they tore it apart. If it were anyone else, even if they were at the Heaven and Earth Mystic Realm, they wouldn't be able to do it.
Therefore, after they recorded the fluctuations of that space, the weakest position, and other things about formations, they went back to study how to break the space in that place.
Originally, the two sides worked together, but they didn't succeed after studying for a lifetime.
Their descendants also kept the secret and continued to study, but the power of the two sides was still unbalanced. The Wang family produced several formation grandmasters and became stronger and stronger, while the Zhou family became weaker and weaker.
Now, the Zhou family had successfully studied the key to break that space, and the Zhou family believed that if they could do it, the Wang family would definitely be able to do it too.
However, after such a long time, the Wang family didn't come to them to work together. Obviously, it was because the Wang family wanted to kill them and monopolize this secret.
In fact, the Zhou Family's guess was correct. The Wang Family hired me to kill the Zhou Family's people. After I arrived at the Zhou Family, the Zhou Family told me everything and even gave me the key to break open that space. "
As he spoke, Ye Xiao handed a round stone and half of a map to Chu Xiu.
"This was given to me by the Zhou family. He said that an ordinary man's wealth will get him into trouble. The Zhou family should have thought of this long ago, because the Zhou family never had the right to keep this kind of secret.
Now that they have finally refined the key that can break that space, it can be considered that they have fulfilled their ancestor's wish and can hand over these things completely.
This half of the map is where they found the weakest point in that space. The Zhou Family and the Wang Family will each take half. "
Chu Xiu took the so-called key and looked at it. This thing was ridiculously round, and there were circles of patterns on it that looked like growth rings. However, upon closer inspection, it was actually carved with tiny array patterns.
Chu Xiu didn't know much about arrays, but this thing didn't look ordinary. Moreover, the Zhou Family wouldn't lie to Ye Xiao at this time.
Speaking of which, the Zhou Clan was quite open-minded. They actually took out a treasure of this level just like that.
Of course, from Chu Xiu's point of view, the Zhou Family should have completely lost hope in the end.
Previously, the Zhou Clan still had a glimmer of hope for this matter. However, after seeing that the Wang Clan had sent assassins to kill them, the Zhou Clan came to a realization that keeping this thing was probably not a treasure but a disaster.
"Return to the Assassins Branch first … No, go directly to the Blue Dragon Society and find the Second Dragon Head, Duanmu Qianshan. Ask him to arrange a position in the Blue Dragon Society headquarters for you. After you recover, you can work in the Blue Dragon Society headquarters."
"Yes, thank you, Official Chu!"
Ye Xiao's face was filled with excitement. He knew that as long as he did a good job in front of Chu Xiu, he would be rewarded.
In the Blue Dragon Society, the treatment of the Assassins Branch and the headquarters was obviously not on the same level. This was especially so since Chu Xiu had sent Duanmu Qianshan, the Second Dragon Head, to look after him.
This time, Ye Xiao did a good job. Of course, this was not only because he brought such big news to Chu Xiu, but also because his way of doing things was very much in line with Chu Xiu's wishes. He knew what he should do and what he shouldn't do.
The rules of the Blue Dragon Society were important, but this news was clearly more important than the rules of the Blue Dragon Society. This was called being flexible.
Moreover, when Ye Xiao unexpectedly found out that he met the people from the nine branches, he didn't tell them the truth and only asked them to ask for help. This was enough to prove Ye Xiao's cautiousness.
Luo Fei-hung could definitely be trusted, but the other nine branches might not. Even Chu Xiu thought so.
Therefore, Ye Xiao's cautiousness also avoided a lot of trouble.
The potential he showed this time was enough for Chu Xiu to focus on nurturing him.
At this time, in the Fuyang Prefecture's Wang Family, Wang Daozong and a few other people in charge of the Wang Family were sitting in the main hall with worried expressions, waiting for news.
Wang Daozong appeared to be an old man in his sixties or seventies. His appearance was decent and he had a rather sage-like appearance.
In Eastern Qi, and even among the formation masters in the entire Underworld, he was one of the more famous ones. This was because the Wang Family had a legacy.
The Wang Family's ancestor was a formation master. Although he wasn't as good as the Wang Family's ancestor, formation masters in the Underworld were incomparably precious. This was especially so for the non-top sects. They didn't have the ability to support formation masters, so they could only ask for help from formation masters like Wang Daozong.
Of course, asking for Wang Daozong's help once was not cheap.
Moreover, even when some of the top sects were arranging some large arrays, an Array Dao Grandmaster would usually be too busy and would ask him for help.
At this time, Wang Daozong was no longer as calm as he used to be. He was even a little anxious.
He knew how important that secret was to the Wang Family.
If they found Dugu Weiwei and Ning Xuanji's corpses and obtained their inheritance, the Wang Family wouldn't just be a family that only knew how to set up formations in the future. He couldn't imagine that scene at all.
After a while, Wang Daozong sighed and said, "If I had known this would happen, I wouldn't have asked the assassins of the Blue Dragon Society to do this. I thought that the assassins of the Blue Dragon Society all followed the rules. I didn't expect these people to have no professional ethics at all. "
A middle-aged man stood up and said, "That's right. I already said that Big Brother's idea was not reliable. Why did he have to find some outsiders? Normally, the assassins of the Blue Dragon Society might follow the rules, but in front of such a precious treasure, who cares about that? It would have been better if we had done it ourselves. "
A slightly older cultivator said coldly, "Easy for you to say. Back then, you didn't object to this.
Do it ourselves? That's easy for you to say!
Who in the entire Fuyang Prefecture doesn't know about our relationship with the Zhou Family? Our two families are aristocratic families. If we act rashly, not only will our Wang Family's reputation be tarnished, but it will also arouse suspicion.
Besides, apart from formations, who else in the Wang Family is proficient in all kinds of killing methods? What if we don't do it well and someone escapes and spreads the news? "
Just as the two of them were about to argue, a cultivator suddenly barged in and said loudly, "Family Head! Not good! The spirit blood left by Third Master and the others have all turned black. Everyone died in an instant! "
Hearing this, Wang Daozong immediately swayed and fell into a chair. He murmured, "Something big happened! Something big happened! "
The so-called spirit blood was a kind of formation that the Wang Family had unearthed from ancient records. As long as someone left a drop of blood in the formation, within a month, that person would die, and the blood in the formation would turn black.
Normally, this effect should be able to last a lifetime. However, the Wang Family's level was limited. They couldn't replicate the complete formation, so this time period was reduced to a month.
But no matter how long it took, now that everyone had died at the same time, it could be imagined what kind of enemy they had encountered. There was a 99% chance that the culprit was the Blue Dragon Society. The news had already reached the Blue Dragon Society!
Whether it was the Wang Family's map of the final battle between Dugu Weiwei and Ning Xuanji, or their key to break through space, these things were enough to arouse the attention of the Blue Dragon Society.
Moreover, they were ruthless enough to hunt down the Blue Dragon Society. One could imagine what they would encounter.
Everyone in the Wang Family immediately panicked. This time, they really had no idea what to do.
The terror of the Blue Dragon Society was directly linked to the word 'murder'. Their Wang Family was an aristocratic family based on the formation dao. Now that they had provoked a behemoth like the Blue Dragon Society, even if they took out all their trump cards, it would be useless.
Wang Daozong sighed and said, "I didn't expect that we would still fail. It seems that this kind of treasure is destined to not belong to our Wang Family. Boss, find out the list of all the employers in our Wang Family. As long as you can contact them in a short period of time, tell them the cause and effect of this matter! "
Wang Daozong was a formation master. Although the Wang Family itself was inconspicuous, there were many large sects and experts who had cooperated with him.
They might not be friends, but they could still contact each other. Not to mention, Wang Daozong wanted to give them such a big piece of news.
The Wang Family's eldest son suddenly stood up and said, "Father! If you do this, aren't you giving away all the hard work of our Wang Family for many generations? From our ancestors until now, won't our Wang Family be in vain in the end? "
Wang Daozong revealed a bitter smile and said, "What else do you want? With the strength of our Wang Family alone, what can we use to resist the Blue Dragon Society? We can only call everyone over. When the time comes, our Wang Family will voluntarily offer those things in exchange for the protection of these large sects. We might even be able to win a little favor from them and help our Wang Family in the future. "
At Wang Daozong's age, he had seen a lot of things. Although he was cautious in doing things, he was also much more reliable. At the very least, his idea was much better than being stubborn.
At the same time, everyone in the Wang Family was also regretting.
If they hadn't chosen to keep this secret to themselves and killed their former ally, the Zhou Family, they would probably have joined forces to explore that space by now.
At that time, there would be Dugu Weiwei's inheritance and Ning Xuanji's inheritance. It would be just right for the two groups to divide it equally.
However, greed ruined everything in the end.
