Beast Taming Tower

Chapter 33: The Hunting Team Was Attacked

After a long pause, Chen Xuan looked at Xiang Yunfei cautiously: "Fellow Daoist Xiang, are we still the four of us in this operation?"

"That's right. When exploring the ancient monks' caves, the gains will be greatly reduced if there are too many people. The four of us know each other well, so if we succeed, the gains will be relatively rich."

Xiang Yunfei nodded without hesitation.

Chen Xuan did not agree immediately.

Thinking about what happened to Xiang Yunfei in Lingbao Pavilion not long ago, Chen Xuan declined.

"Fellow Daoist Xiang, I wonder what the origin of the ancient cultivator's cave you found this time is? If it is an ordinary ancient cultivator's cave, I will not participate."

Xiang Yunfei frowned slightly.

After a long silence, he suddenly flipped his hand and took out a jade bottle.

"Fellow Daoist Chen, the ancient cultivator's cave that I found this time is extraordinary. I can't say more about its specific origins."

"If you really don't trust me, I'll leave this Spiritual Cultivation Pill with you. If you, Fellow Daoist Chen, gain nothing this time, the Spiritual Cultivation Pill will be yours!"

hum!

Looking at the jade-white spiritual pill handed to him by Xiang Yunfei, a fiery light flashed in Chen Xuan's eyes.

But Chen Xuan's heart was as clear as a mirror.

"The ancient cultivator's cave that Xiang Yunfei had to go to after paying such a huge price must be filled with dangers."

"What kind of ancient cultivator's cave dwelling is it that Xiang Yunfei is willing to spend so much money on?"

Chen Xuan was secretly surprised and became more and more curious.

After thinking seriously for a long time, thinking that he and Xiang Yunfei didn't seem to suffer any losses this time when they went to explore the ancient cultivator's cave, Chen Xuan nodded.

"Since Brother Xiang has said so, I will naturally not refuse. Please let me know when you are leaving."

Chen Xuan casually took the Spirit-cultivating Pill from Xiang Yunfei's hand.

Instead of getting angry, Xiang Yunfei smiled happily.

"Fellow Daoist Chen is so young, yet he has such courage. He will definitely go further on the path of cultivating immortals. We will set off immediately in three days."

"But Fellow Daoist Chen must keep this a secret and not let anyone else know about it except us."

Chen Xuan nodded, and asked Xiang Yunfei and Zhang Wenqing indirectly about the ancient cultivator's cave that they were about to explore.

Seeing that the two of them kept their mouths shut, Chen Xuan left Xiang Yunfei's courtyard.

But Chen Xuan was not busy practicing in the secret room.

After wandering around for a long time, Chen Xuan saw Niu Changgong also leaving Xiang Yunfei's courtyard, and he followed him directly.

"Fellow Daoist Niu!"

Chen Xuan shouted.

Niu Changgong looked at Chen Xuan with an embarrassed expression.

"Fellow Daoist Chen, can you lend me your spirit stones... give me some time? Not long ago, I just bought some small essence pills for Xiaoshan. He is about to break through to the eighth level of Qi Refining and can participate in the Taixuan Mountain Ascension Conference."

Chen Xuan frowned.

There was a hint of displeasure on his face.

"Fellow Daoist Niu, I know you are short of money, but you promised me that you would return me 110 low-grade spirit stones when we return from Master Hongyun's cave. You won't default on your debt, will you?"

"Fellow Daoist Chen, who do you think I am, Niu Changgong? It's just one hundred and ten low-grade spirit stones. Is it worth it for me to default on my debt?"

Niu Changgong was very angry at what Chen Xuan said and argued with Chen Xuan with a red face.

Seeing Niu Changgong so angry, Chen Xuan smiled secretly.

Soon, Chen Xuan said sternly: "Fellow Daoist Niu, you owe me spirit stones and you won't pay me back. This is an indisputable fact. No matter how you try to argue, it's useless. However, if you answer some questions for me, I can lend you spirit stones for a while. How about that?"

"This……"

Niu Changgong looked alert.

But he was blocked on the street by Chen Xuan for debt collection, and he had no way to escape. He was silent for a long time before he nodded.

After looking around for a while, Chen Xuan quickly brought Niu Changgong to a nearby trading secret room.

"Fellow Daoist Chen, if you have anything to say, please ask me as soon as possible. If Xiaoshan saw that I haven't been back for such a long time, he would definitely be worried." Niu Changgong said.

Chen Xuan nodded.

"Fellow Daoist Niu, we went to explore the ancient monk's cave this time. Do you have any other news?"

"To be honest, Fellow Daoist Xiang and Fellow Daoist Zhang were very tight-lipped this time. They didn't say anything."

"Oh? I just don't believe that Brother Xiang didn't give you some other benefits?"

"This... Since you already know this, why bother asking? That's right, I promised you a spiritual cultivation pill."

Although Chen Xuan looked normal, he was actually alert.

After a moment of silence, Chen Xuan asked again: "Do you know what Daoist Xiang has been doing recently?"

"I have heard something about this. During this period, Fellow Daoist Xiang and Fellow Daoist Zhang have been going to the depths of Mount Qixia from time to time. They should have discovered the ancient cultivator's cave. Otherwise, they would not have gone to Mount Qixia so frequently."

"There are only two of them, how dare they go to Mount Qixia?"

"There are definitely more than just the two of them. As far as I know, many Daoists including Fellow Daoist Cui who sells spiritual talismans, Daoist Fellow Yuwen who sells spiritual beasts, and Daoists familiar with Daoist Fellows Xiang and Zhang followed them to Mount Qixia. I don't know if it's because of the start of the Taixuan Mountain Ascension Conference, but these people haven't appeared in the market recently."

Niu Changgong told Chen Xuan everything he knew.

After Chen Xuan finished asking, he smiled and said, "Fellow Daoist Niu, you must not tell Fellow Daoist Xiang and Fellow Daoist Zhang about what I asked you today, otherwise it will cause a lot of trouble."

"Don't worry, Fellow Daoist Chen. I, Niu Changgong, swear by my inner demon that I will never reveal a single word. However, I will lend you my spirit stone..."

"When you have enough money, remember to pay me back."

Chen Xuan agreed casually.

Niu Changgong looked overjoyed and thanked him. Then he and Chen Xuan left the trading room one after another.

Just as Chen Xuan returned to the rented training room, his mood became complicated.

With a flip of his hand, Chen Xuan took out the spiritual pill that Xiang Yunfei gave him. He looked at it carefully for a long time but couldn't see any clues. Chen Xuan fell into confusion again.

"Xiang Yunfei must be hiding something from me. I just don't know what it is that makes him willing to pay such a huge price and invite Niu Changgong and I to the ancient cultivator's cave?"

……

Three days later, four figures quietly left the market town of Qixia and headed towards the depths of Qixia Mountain.

It was Chen Xuan, Xiang Yunfei, Zhang Wenqing and Niu Changgong.

Along the way, the four of them were extremely cautious.

Only after they had walked for more than half a month and arrived at a small valley near the core area of ​​Qixia Mountain did Xiang Yunfei stop.

"The location is probably right here. Fellow Daoist Zhang, thank you for your hard work in exploring the way."

Xiang Yunfei looked around and gave orders immediately.

Zhang Wenqing nodded, quickly performed the wind control technique, and disappeared as a shadow.

About half a cup of tea had passed, and Chen Xuan and the other two had not seen Zhang Wenqing return, so they couldn't help but look alert.

At this moment, a sharp explosion suddenly sounded not far ahead.

A fireball the size of a bowl instantly burned a towering tree to ashes.

At the same time, Zhang Wenqing's embarrassed figure appeared in front of everyone.

"There's an ambush, run!"
