Chapter 1343: Chapter 1343: The Frustrated Zhao Family Chapter 1343: Chapter 1343: The Frustrated Zhao Family And furthermore, Zhao Bo, who had sustained the Zhao Family’s opposition against the Li Family, had also vanished without a trace. As the saying goes, the living are geniuses, while the dead are worth less than a pile of dung.
No one was unaware of how Zhao Bo was accepted as a nominal disciple by the Thousand Yuan Immortal Venerable.
The fact was, the Thousand Yuan Immortal Venerable would rather Zhao Bo had nothing to do with him, as such a nominal disciple was simply not valued.
Instead, they had to do certain things because of this status, which was too troublesome.
Especially since there had been some estrangements between the Zhao Family and Jade Yao Sword Sect due to Zhao Xinwei back in the day, how could they agree to help if one sought assistance from the Thousand Yuan Immortal Venerable?
Suddenly, the Zhao Family made a startling realization.
Damn it!
Without Zhao Bo and Xiao Si, had their Zhao Family been beaten back to its original state?
Gathering Spirit City was merely a large city, and its power didn’t compare to any dynasty. Within a dynasty, there might exist stronger beings like those with low-grade divine power or a Primordial Chaos Daluo.
But the key point was, this was Gathering Spirit City, which at best was considered a small power within a dynasty!
The grievances between the Zhao and Li families were not significant enough to attract the help of larger forces.
The Zhao Family had Zhao Bo as a nominal disciple of the Thousand Yuan Immortal Venerable, and the Li Family had some resources intertwined with Beidou Immortal Palace; the two families were about even.
Thus, they could only use gambling agreements as a form of contest.
Now that Zhao Bo had disappeared, the Zhao Family truly lacked the courage to confront the Li Family!
“Damn it, go find that steward of the Li Family and demand to know what is going on. How is it that he knew nothing about the collusion against my Zhao Family’s team?”
Zhao Yude roared furiously, “And hurry up and search for a stronger existence, a low-grade divine power Daluo Golden Immortal, a Primordial Chaos Daluo–as long as they are willing to help the Zhao Family, no matter the cost, I can afford it!”
The Zhao Family had amassed quite a treasure over the years, having dealt with Jade Yao Sword Sect twice.
Inviting such existences to lend a hand, it would cost the entire family fortune–just about right!
Of course, what no one knew was that Zhao Yude had another hidden treasure–a field of Xuanwu Crystal that was impossible to mine!
This involved core secrets, and almost no one knew of it.
Those who knew were long gone from this world, like Zhao Xinwei, for instance!
The discovery of this field of Xuanwu Crystal was a serendipitous find by Zhao Xinwei, who at the time was vehemently opposing the Zhao Family. When she was captured, Zhao Yude came to know of it, but this news never leaked!
He also dared not let it leak!
Otherwise, if it became known, it would certainly lead to the swallowing up of his Zhao Family. Who wouldn’t covet such a large vein of Xuanwu Crystal?
Even the Primordial Chaos Daluo, or even the Primordial Chaos Boundless, would have to take a closer look.
He had been secretly searching for years to find a way to break the seal on the vein.
At this moment, Zhao Yude was nearly going mad; he craved revenge, seeking to find Zhao Bo and flay alive the person behind the curtain!
If it really didn’t work out, he couldn’t believe that if he offered this vein to the Jade Yao Sword Sect, they wouldn’t lift a finger in return.
But, it still hurt because of the interest involved; giving it away to the Jade Yao Sword Sect was still painful to him.
After Zhao Yude had vented his anger, many of the Zhao Family’s experts went to contact the connected steward in the Li Family, only to receive a bewildering message.
Li Qiling and her group had indeed returned to Gathering Spirit City, but they hadn’t gone back to the Li Family at all!
They just had a meal and then left?
It seems, they went to hunt for the Sky Swallow?
Upon learning this information, Zhao Yude was dumbfounded.
That’s not right!
If it were the doing of the Li Family, they needn’t go out hunting for the Sky Swallow anymore, and they could even use this incident to threaten the Zhao Family, especially since Zhao Bo’s spirit was in their hands.
Yet the Li Family had not reacted at all and instead continued to hunt for the Sky Swallow?
Were they unaware of the incident involving the Zhao Family?
“Why would Sun Gangniang be in the Li Family’s team?”
Zhao Yude gritted his teeth, looking towards his confidants, “Go, find the Li Family’s whereabouts for me. I want to see what exactly they are playing at!”
If it weren’t for the Li Family, Zhao Yude felt he would go mad.
They couldn’t find a single trace!
Meanwhile, Li Qiling and her companions were indeed continuing to hunt the Sky Swallow, yet there was no sign of Jiang Xiaobai and the others nearby.
Before departing, Jiang Xiaobai had told them that the Zhao Family might come looking for trouble, but they wouldn’t go so far as to lay hands on the Li Family.
Because the current Zhao Family simply lacked the capability to do so.
The QiYuan Immortal Venerable wouldn’t step out for a named disciple who only had their Yuanshen left, let alone abandon relations–it was too late for that!
Li Zhilin was very clear about this, so he calmly took Li Qiling out to hunt for Sky Swallows, pretending to be completely unaware of the Zhao Family’s situation.
Moreover, everyone accompanying them knew the details and were trusted members of the Li Family; they would absolutely not leak any information to the Zhao Family.
“Uncle, do you think Young Master Jiang and the others can really succeed?”
Li Qiling murmured, “Isn’t the risk too great?”
To this, Li Zhilin chuckled.
“Hehe, considering the strength of Young Master Jiang and that demon beast, what risks could there be?”
“The Jade Yao Sword Sect won’t join in.”
“And Miss, don’t you know their plan? After it’s executed, do you think the Zhao Family can withstand it?”
“They won’t even need to lift a finger, and the Zhao Family will be doomed!”
He shook his head as he spoke, unable to imagine how the Zhao Family could turn the situation around if the plan were to succeed.
To not be tormented to death would already be a mercy!
Li Qiling, the girl, nodded blankly, her mind filled with the image of Jiang Xiaobai’s shocking sword that day.
Young Master Jiang, so strong!
…
Elsewhere, Jiang Xiaobai and his companions started implementing their plan without delay.
Led by Sun Gangniang, they arrived at a desert three thousand li south of the Spirit Gathering Layer.
Strangely enough, there was a stone forest in the desert, bare and exposed on the surface.
“There’s a hidden cave inside. It looks unremarkable upon entry, but it conceals secrets, with a mechanism that opens a path to the mine.”
“Who knows who first discovered the mine, but afterward, this concealed passage was constructed.”
“But… that mine truly isn’t something ordinary people can exploit.”
Sun Gangniang sighed, “Brother Jiang, your methods are special; perhaps you can do it.”
Jiang Xiaobai remained silent.
On the way, he had roughly understood the problems with the mine; it seemed there was a formation that sealed off all the veins.
Even a Hunyuan Daluo had no way to break the seal, and whether a Primordial Chaos Daluo touching the divine level could forcibly break it was unclear.
However, the fact that this thing had existed for so many years, surely discovered numerous times, but still no one could excavate the Xuanwu crystals should prove something.
What he needed to worry about now was whether this mine still existed!
Jiang Xiaobai had also inquired about the Earth Vein LiJing Record and had not noticed anything abnormal, meaning that the Earth Vein LiJing Record would not detect anything even if it passed through that stone forest or directly over the Xuanwu crystal mine!
“Strange, the Earth Vein LiJing Record is an artifact of the Sky Spirit treasure level, and even it can’t find it. What kind of seal could be so formidable?”
Jiang Xiaobai felt unsure,
He didn’t know whether his methods would work; a formation capable of sealing off all auras, completely preventing any spiritual power from leaking.
How could one absorb in such a situation?
