Chapter 334 Underground Palace

The Tao family heard about the arrival of the disciples of the Immortal Sect and waited outside the manor early. When they saw Qingyang and others, all the Tao family members came to greet them.

The first one was an old man in his fifties, with the cultivation level of the second level of Qi Refining. There was no need to introduce this person. It must be Tao Yougong, the younger brother of the head of the Tao family, and the uncle of Tao Zhengyou. There were five or six Kaimai Realm cultivators behind him, with different ages. The youngest was only in his twenties, and the oldest was in his fifties or sixties. They should have a say in the Tao family, but they were not as respected as Tao Zhengyou and Tao Yougong.

Seeing Chen Biwang and his group from the Immortal Sect, especially Qingyang, who was only in his twenties but had already reached the third level of Qi Refining, many people unconsciously showed envy on their faces.

When they came to the front of the crowd, Qingyang and others unconsciously released a little momentum, not to weaken the reputation of the disciples of the Immortal Sect. Although Chen Biwang's dress was rather strange, the momentum of the fifth level of Qi Refining was still sufficient. As long as he stood there, no one dared to disrespect him in the slightest.

Feeling the momentum of the other side, Tao Yougong knew that Chen Biwang was the leader. He brought the Tao family to the front, bowed deeply to Chen Biwang, and said: "I, Tao Yougong, and all the disciples of the Tao family, pay homage to the Qingfeng Palace Immortal Gate Envoy." Chen Biwang accepted the Tao family's greetings generously, paused for a moment, and then with the demeanor of an immortal gate disciple, he supported him and said: "Although your Tao family has moved to Yongzhou, the Tao family is from the Qingfeng Palace after all, and the Tao family ancestor Wuxin Sanren has made many contributions to the Qingfeng Palace. We are also from the same lineage, so there is no need for you to say more. "

Tao Yougong was about to say a few more humble words, but Tao Zhengyou next to him interrupted and said, "Second uncle, several senior brothers have come from afar and have worked hard all the way. Let's invite a few senior brothers in first."

Tao Yougong seemed a little dissatisfied with his nephew interrupting his thoughts. He glared at Tao Zhengyou calmly and said, "It's all my fault. I was so happy that I forgot to invite all the Taoist friends from the immortal sect into the house. Taoist friends, please come in!"

Qingyang looked at the two people from behind. It seems that the relationship between them is not very harmonious. There seems to be some secret competition between the two. If this competition is just some insignificant things, it's okay. If it reaches the point of life and death, the matter is more complicated.

Qingyang has seen a lot of such brothers killing each other. For example, when they were in Kaiyuan Prefecture, the brothers of the Tiger family of the Tiger Gang, the eldest brother Tiger Zhensong had just died, and the following people fought openly and secretly. In the end, the entire Tiger Gang almost disappeared. I hope that the Tao family will not repeat the same mistake.

Tao Yougong and Tao Zhengyou made an invitation gesture on the left and right. Chen Biwang walked in front of them. Qingyang and Lu Dingshan followed behind them and entered the Tao family's manor together.

After passing through the house and the courtyard, Tao Yougong led everyone to the reception hall. After everyone sat down, he served the spiritual tea with the effect of clearing eyesight and clearing the mind. Then he said: "Several immortal envoys have come from afar. Our Tao family is really grateful."

Chen Biwang took a sip of the teacup and said lightly: "Fellow Daoist Tao, you are too polite. This is all arranged by Qingxin Sanren, the head of the outer courtyard of Qingfeng Hall. We are just following orders. You should first tell us what the situation is in the place where the head of the Tao family had an accident."

Tao Zhengyou talked about the Tao family, but he only said it in a general way. In particular, what is the situation of the dangerous place where the head of the Tao family had an accident? Everyone still knows nothing about it. Now that we have arrived at the place, we will take action immediately. Some things must be asked clearly.

Before Tao Yougong could speak, Tao Zhengyou spoke first: "Brothers, the reason why I didn't explain in detail on the way was because it was a serious matter. That dangerous place involved the cave of a foundation-building senior. I was afraid of causing unnecessary trouble, so I hid some key things."

"What cave of a foundation-building senior?" Chen Biwang couldn't help but ask.

The people present were only Qi-refining cultivators. Foundation-building cultivators were still high and mighty for them. If they could really find a cave of a foundation-building cultivator here, they might get a lot of unexpected gains, and this trip would be worth it. Fortunately, Tao Zhengyou didn't say so much when he was in Qingfeng Hall, otherwise it wouldn't be their turn.

Tao Zhengyou was about to answer, but Tao Yougong next to him scolded him: "Zhengyou, don't talk nonsense. If you mislead the judgment of several immortal gate envoys, you will not be able to bear the blame if something happens. It is just our guess that it is a cave of a foundation-building cultivator. Instead, it is more like an underground palace built by our predecessors. It is gloomy inside and does not seem to be the work of a righteous cultivator."

It is not a cave of a foundation-building cultivator? Chen Biwang couldn't help but feel a little disappointed, but then he heard the other party say that it was an underground palace, and he immediately became interested again, saying: "Tell me in detail what happened." Tao Yougong said: "About half a year ago, my eldest brother accidentally heard that there was something unusual in Phoenix Mountain not far from our manor, and it seemed that a treasure had appeared, so he took a few disciples of the Tao family to find out. Who knew that the place was very strange, and everyone who went in had an accident, and only one disciple who was keeping watch outside escaped back. After that, we kept looking for people to help, and organized two groups of people to go down for rescue. As a result, not only did no one get out, but everyone else was trapped inside. It was very difficult to find people afterwards, so Zhengyou went to ask Qingfeng Temple for help in desperation." "Who were the two groups who went there before?" Qingyang suddenly asked.

Tao Yougong said: "My Tao family has limited capabilities. The first batch only found a cultivator in the early stage of Qi training to lead a group of cultivators in the Kaimai realm. After they got into trouble, we hired another group of cultivators in the early stage of Qi training with a large sum of money. Unexpectedly, they still got into trouble. It was very difficult to find people afterwards. Those with too low cultivation levels could not get in. Those with high cultivation levels also had high prices. Our Tao family could not afford that price."

Even the team of cultivators in the early stage of Qi training got into trouble. It seems that this matter is really difficult to deal with. Chen Biwang paused and said: "Just saying this will not lead to any results. Since you said that Phoenix Mountain is not far from here, we can go there. Go check it out as soon as possible. "

For Tao Zhengyou, his father is still trapped in the underground palace, and the sooner he goes to rescue him, the greater the possibility of survival, so Tao Zhengyou hurriedly said: "Okay, I will make preparations now."

"Don't worry, I have something else to say." Tao Zhengyou was about to leave, but Tao Yougong next to him suddenly stopped him, and then looked at Chen Biwang and others, and said: "Zhengyou has been in Qingfeng Palace for the past few months. I have not been idle at home. With the previous relationship of the Tao family, I have recruited a few people to help. They will arrive in the next two days. It will not be too late for us to go after everyone gathers. "

"Second uncle, saving people is like putting out a fire." Tao Zhengyou said anxiously.
