Chapter 226 - Former Dynasty’s Treasure

There was a strong heavy stench of blood after a fist-sized blood red crystal was taken out.

“Good thing it’s still here and wasn’t discovered by those sect members. Number Two, it was totally worth hiding it here.” The tall shadow happily said this.

An unmoving Liu Ming hidden inside the large tree was surprised as soon as he heard the two words “Number Two”. Inside his heart, he thought that it couldn’t be such a coincidence that he would be able to meet those two escaped enemies from the ‘Black Spirit Group’?

“Hehe, of course. This blood crystal was formed from the Marquis’ and Princes’ essence bloods. The treasure gate opening will depend on this item. However, at the same time, if it wasn’t for our worry that someone would use the royal blood to find the nobility and potentially find this crystal, we wouldn’t have had to temporarily hide the crystal here and wait a whole month.” The fat shadow gloomily mused while looking at the blood red crystal in his hands.

“This place took me half a year to set up, even if those Spirit Masters personally came looking, they would not be able to find this place. However, at the same time, if we didn’t place the item here, would we dare to keep it on us when the Spirit Masters came.” The tall shadow responded.

“That is true. Also Number 3 didn’t reveal our secret. Such a pity, he originally wanted to hide as well but didn’t realize that those sect members moved really quickly and ended up getting caught at the base. I didn’t get caught because I left earlier by around an hour, otherwise this treasure would only have been left to you alone Number One.” The fat shadow nodded and then sighed.

“Number Two, are we not already safe and sound, why do you still need to say this?

However I am curious, how did you know that the current imperial family and the previous imperial family came from the same bloodline?

When it comes to treasure related things, you went to look for the two of us and came together with the ‘Black Spirit Sect’. Before when Number 3 and I asked you, you were never willing to explain anything. Now that Number 3 is no longer here, you can finally explain some of it to me right?” The tall shadow quietly asked with a glint in his eye.

“Hmph, Number One, when did you become so curious? However at this point in time, since the situation is already like this, I can no longer hide it. I have the previous imperial bloodline flowing in my veins. The current imperial family is actually one of the more distant descendents of the previous imperial family. At the time, the Five Sects discovered the previous imperial family had wanted to cultivate their own Spirit Masters which is why they supported the rebellion. Otherwise how would they have been able to take over the previous Emperor’s rein if they were on their own? This treasure was left behind by the previous imperial family. Originally, only a single direct descendant disciple’s essence blood would be enough to remove the last restriction. However, the previous imperial family was destroyed too long ago and my bloodline is no longer that pure. Thus, we had to borrow the essence blood from these Marquis’ and Princes.” The fat shadow was silent for a moment, and then mockingly said a bunch of things.

“So you used to be a part of the former royal family. But listening to your tone, you don’t seem to care that they were overthrown and even willing to share the former dynasty’s treasures with others.” With a dry laugh, the tall shadow said this with a straight face after hearing these things.

“Hmph, the previous imperial family was foolish for not realizing how strong the Sects are. They just wanted to rely on mortal force and expected to overthrow the Five Sects. How can I be resentful when they were asking to be killed? Besides, after all these years, the most important thing for me was to cultivate
