Qiao Tian Chang seemed to have sensed Ning Meng Yao’s surge of emotions, he immediately opened his mouth to placate her.
Ning Meng Yao nodded her head, she furrowed her brows tightly: “I know.”
The group carefully walked in, Ning Meng Yao accidentally touched something by the side, swishing sounds could suddenly be heard.
”Careful,” Qiao Tian Chang turned around and hugged Ning Meng Yao as he kept evading the rain of arrows flying towards them.
Hong Ying and the others were not injured due to Qiao Tian Chang’s reminder, but they became more alert as they continued walking.
This secret passage was a little deep, they walked for a long time but did not hear any sounds.
Ning Meng Yao suddenly halted her steps: “Hold on, can you all hear it, is it some weird noise?”
They closed their eyes and listened, the secret passage became quieter because they had all halted their footsteps.
”Right, but this sounds like something rubbing the ground,” Qiao Tian Chang said with uncertainty.
”En, indeed so, but it sounds very far away, but it also seems to be near,” Hei Yi closed his eyes, he opened his eyes after a while as he looked at them and said while frowning.
”We’ll continue walking.”
在那神秘的声音之后，乔天畅的等人又朝着里面走去，只是每走一段距离都会停下来，听听刚才的那个声音是不是还在。
After hearing that mysterious sound, Qiao Tian Chang and the others headed deeper in, but they would stop after walking a while more to check if they could still hear that previous sound.
Ning Meng Yao in the darkness suddenly shivered: “Tian Chang, I seem to be able to hear sounds of screaming.”
”En, you’re right, it’s deeper in, let’s go,” Qiao Tian Chang nodded his head, he had also heard that sound, but he was not feeling afraid.
It was instead Ning Meng Yao who did not seem to adapt to this feeling, her emotions began to surge.
”Tian Chang, I’m feeling worried,” What would she do if her father was the one to receive such treatment?
She was really feeling worried about her father.
Qiao Tian Chang hugged her in his embrace: “There’s Qing Shuang around, nothing will happen,” Regardless of what happens to Nangong Yan, nothing would happen as long as he was still around.
Ning Meng Yao nodded her head with a bitter smile, they were indeed filled with slight expectations.
Hong Ying lowered her voice: “They spent great effort to bring uncle to this place, there should be a purpose so nothing should happen to uncle.”
This place seems quite nice other than the silence that could drive people crazy.
”Let’s walk faster,” Ning Meng Yao felt slightly embarrassed, they were here to search for him, how could she allow them to comfort her?
The crowd began walking forward, but they were not so lucky this time, Qiao Tian Chang missed a step, the ground revealed a bottomless pit, Ning Meng Yao reached out her hand and grabbed Qiao Tian Chang before he fell in, in the end, she was dragged together with Qiao Tian Chang.
When Hong Ying and the others wanted to help, the two had already vanished in front of them and the pit had sealed itself again.
”Dammit,” Bai Yi cursed, what the hell was this place?
”Let’s find Yao’er’s father first,” They knew Ling Empire’s Regent, they would not recognize the wrong person.
Even if Bai Yi was filled with hatred in his heart, he still agreed to Hei Yi’s words.
The longer they stayed in this place, the more dangerous it was, furthermore, Little Yao’er had passed this matter to them, they needed to handle it properly.
Ning Meng Yao grabbed Qiao Tian Chang’s hand tightly, there were whistling sounds as they fell, Qiao Tian Chang pulled her with one hand and hugged her, he was guessing in his heart where they were falling into.
”Tian Chang, how deep is this pit?” They had been falling for a long time but still have not reached the bottom, it caused Ning Meng Yao to feel speechless.
”No idea, endure a little longer.”
After a long while, Qiao Tian Chang fell to the ground first, Ning Meng Yao landed on him.
The sudden dazzling lights caused Ning Meng Yao to be unable to adapt to it and she closed her eyes.
Her eyes were wide when she opened her eyes and saw everything inside.
A was a huge stone chamber, there were many gold, silver, and jewels placed inside, there were also many good items.
”Tian Chang, could this place be the place where the Imperial Tutor hides his treasures?” Ning Meng Yao asked with uncertainty.
”Possibly,” Qiao Tian Chang looked at the surroundings, he realized the items in here were indeed treasures, they were much more abundant compared to Xiao Qi Feng’s treasury.
