Chapter 341 - The Great Clans of the Jiu Empire! (2/2)

”Hahahahaha! Come, let us roll out the mat here and enjoy our breakfast! I have some tea here by the by!”

Just like that, the three of them had their breakfast while watching the chaos inside the Doulou's military camp. Chomping down on their skewers and drinking their tea with a peaceful expression.

”Eh? Brother Wang Dong, I thought that last night we added aphrodisiac as well... they don't seem to be on heat?” Shen Murong cupped his chin.

”Oh, its probably diluted with the laxatives. The effects should be showing later on I think?” Wang Dong replied with a little uncertainty in his voice.

”Huh? Look over there!” Shen Murong pointed towards the exit of the Doulou's military camp and saw a dozen groups of soldiers marching.

”Aha! The people leading them must be this Princess Meixiu! Those two beside her are Ling Shin and Ruo Hen that I was talking about last night! But as for that old lady...” Wang Dong narrowed his eyes, looking a little serious.

The three of them nodded with a grim expression.

A Nascent Soul realm expert!

”Where do you think they are going Junior Wei Wang?” the both of them asked.

”I think they must've already found the location of an anciet ruin. We should follow them!” Wei Wang replied with a scribble.

Thus, they decided to tail the expedition party from behind.

...

”Honorary Guest, the teleportation array can now be used.” an elder said to Duan Li who was still donning on his white mask.

”En.” Duan Li replied simply with a nod. He was feeling quite weird with the elders of the Shen clan using such a polite title on him.

I guessed that they really respect the Patriarch to even call an intruder like me as an Honorary Guest...

Stepping onto the teleportation array, Duan Li's figure flashed with a blinding light before disappearing!

Wengg!!

...

”Woah!” Duan Li's figure reappeared ontop of a similar teleportation array and felt a little dizzy.

After he felt a bit better, he then looked around at his surroundings and found that he was inside a cave with a long pathway ahead of him, lit by torches on each side.

Tap! Tap!

”Hmm?” the closer Duan Li was to the exit of this long pathway, the more sure he became.

Through the ripples of spiritual Qi pressing on him as he moved, increasing dramatically with each step, he was able to identify that the spiritual Qi assault was coming from eight different people!

By combining their might, the level of spiritual Qi assault on him right now would make even the knees of a Pinnacle stage Nascent Soul realm experts to collapse!

But against Duan Li? Honestly speaking, it just felt like the sea breeze to him!

With light footsteps and his hand placed behind his back, Duan Li continued to trudged on with consistent walking speed without any difficulties at all. Before long, he finally reached the end of the pathway and arrived at a massive open space inside the cave.

Raising his head, what he saw in front of him was nine tall pillars. Except the last one, on each of them, could be seen figures sitting cross-legged, their silhouette shrouded in darkness as the light from the torches below could not reach them, appearing very mysterious.

”I thought I was supposed to face only one of you at a time?” Duan Li asked casually with a light chuckle behind his mask.

Whooshh!

Below each pillar, their individual torches began to lit one by one, revealing a single character etched on each one of them, starting from the pillar with no one on top of it:

Sui...

Ding...

Shi...

Fei...

Wei...

Xu...

Wang...

Shen...

and finally...

Jiu!

The Nine Great Clans of the Jiu Empire!
