Chapter 247: The Secret in the Depths of the Ruins, the Remaining Aristocratic Families

Soon, after Su Yi and Wang Baocai finished their discussion, he returned to where Nie Ling was.

He spoke slowly to Nie Ling.

Nie Ling, when we enter the ruins, if Old Master Nie hasnt made any arrangements, how about we follow that person to explore?

As he spoke, he pointed at Wang Baocai who was following behind him. The latter smiled slightly and gestured at Nie Ling.

Nie Ling heard this and looked at Wang Baocai, then at Su Yi. She could feel that if she said no, then Su Yi would not agree to that man either.

However, after thinking about it, her grandfather did not seem to have said that she had to follow him, so she nodded lightly and said indifferently, alright, Ill go wherever you go.

As soon as she said this, the atmosphere at the scene instantly became a little ambiguous. Nie Ling, who seemed to have realized something, her small face instantly turned red. She turned around from Su Yi, who was still in a daze, and quickly ran back to the Spirit Energy Ship.

When Li Mengxi heard that, a strange look flashed in her eyes. Li Zhengxuan saw this small reaction and could not help but think about it.

Wang Baocai, who was behind Su Yi, also had a look of understanding. The only one who was confused at the scene was Su Yi himself.

He looked at the surrounding people who were looking at him with a strange look and immediately explained. Dont tell me you guys misunderstood?

He called Nie Ling because of his promise to Old Master Nie, but was it really just because of a promise?

He looked at Nie Ling, who had trotted back to the Spirit Energy Ship, and a trace of guilt flashed through his heart.

Then, he looked at Li Mengxi and Li Zhengxuan and said, fellow Daoist Li, Big Brother Li, do the two of you have any plans after entering the ancient ruins?

The two of them looked at each other, then shook their heads. Originally, the two of them wanted to follow clan elder Li Xuande to gain experience after entering the ancient ruins, but now that Su Yi had mentioned it, they wanted to hear what he wanted to do.

Fellow Daoist Su, there are no plans for now. What do you mean?

Li Mengxi looked at Su Yi and asked. He glanced at Wang Baocai and said, Ill let fellow Daoist Wang Baocai explain it to you.

When Wang Baocai heard this, he walked forward and said, greetings, the two of you. I Am Wang Baocai, a member of the Wang family in the western region of the great desolate.

Following that, Li Mengxi and Li Zhengxuan also introduced their identities to each other, slightly surprising Wang Baocai.

So they were brother and sister of the Li family.

After the few of them got to know each other, Wang Baocai also began his invitation.

Both of you, I have a map of a small area of the ancient ruins. May I know

It was time for Wang Baocais speech. Li Mengxi looked at Su Yi from time to time. He nodded slightly to confirm that the other partys sincerity was real.

Finally, the siblings looked at each other and agreed to explore together.

At this moment, the ancient ruins exploration team was officially established.

Countless years later, Wang Baocai would also sigh and say that he was fortunate to get the right people on this exploration trip.

In the middle of the night, outside the huge sealing platform, the troops of the various aristocratic families returned to their resting places.

At this moment, Su Yi and the others had also returned to the deck of the Spirit Energy Ship. They did not cultivate but looked up at the starry sky.

Old Master Lin Yan did not disappear along with Old Master Nie and senior Li Xuande.

He leaned against the bottom of the spirit energy spaceships mast. His eyes revealed a deep sorrow. He held the wine gourd in his hand and drank every mouthful.

He did not care about the torment of the younger generation. For him, coming to this ancient ruin again was only to fulfill his desire for revenge and to help Old Master Nie.

During this time, Su Yi would occasionally come forward to chat, but in the end, he was chased away by old master Lin with a wave of his hand.

At this time, the ship soared into the sky and slowly landed on the deck.

Su Yi and the others came back to their senses and found that Old Master Nie, senior Li Xuande, and the others had returned. However, before they could greet them, these two had already pulled the drunkard old man Lin Yan to the bow of the ship to discuss something.

This baffled Su Yi and the others. They were just about to talk about the exploration of the ancient ruins.

At the bow of the ship, three old men slowly sat around a chessboard. They saw Old Man Nie wave his hand and move all the chess pieces away. After that, he took away old man Lin Yans wine gourd and took out a few wine glasses from God knows where.

Glug glug glug

In an instant, three glasses of wine were filled.

The operation was smooth. Li Xuande, who was watching by the side, was dumbstruck. Lin Yan seemed to be very used to it and had a steady, practiced hand.

Old Man Nie picked up the wine glass and slowly said, that group of old men has been convinced. When the time comes, we will go to the depths of the ruins together.

Those old fellows have agreed?

Lin Yan raised his eyebrows and downed the cup of wine in his hand in one gulp as he spoke.

At this moment, Li Xuande, who was at the side, nodded his head in confirmation. However, he did not drink the wine in his cup.

It was not that he did not give face to elder Nie and Lin Yan. It was just that this pot of wine was something that the old man, Lin Yan, had drunk with his mouth.

He was not so uncaring that he wanted to drink the saliva of an old man. Just thinking about it made him feel a little disgusted. Moreover, his relationship with the two of them was not that good.

Seeing Li Xuande nodding his head, Old Man Lin Yan also nodded his head slightly. There were a total of five aristocratic families here, not including them.

Among them, the Xu family, led by Xu Que, had some disciples of the Xu family with them.

However, these disciples were not those who had been in the forbidden area. These disciples were the future seedlings of the Xu family. Losing one of them would be enough to hurt the Xu family greatly.

There was also the Wang family. The old fellow from the Wang family was called Wang Ruobing. He was not some old man, but a middle-aged lady.

However, she was indeed of the same age as old master nie. Moreover, one should not underestimate this woman, Wang Ruobing. Her strength was also unfathomable.

The only disciple that the Wang family had brought was Wang Baocai. This was the reason why Wang Baocai had to find people to form a team.

Otherwise, he would have to go through the ancient ruins alone. 80 percent of them would not be able to leave the ruins.

Next would be the Sun family, Qian family, and Yan family. These were the more powerful aristocratic families in the great desolate. Furthermore, the familys influence was not in the Central Plains, so it was normal that they had never heard of them.

As for the rest of the future, the Sword Pavilion could be considered an aristocratic family. The Sword Pavilion was mainly formed by the Xuan family, so it was not wrong to say that the Sword Pavilion was an aristocratic familys influence.

Then there was the Lu family of the Thousand Treasures Pavilion. As a member of the Lu family, they definitely had to get involved in such a grand event.

There was also the Tang family. After the trip to the forbidden land, the Tang family probably still harbored a grudge against Su Yi.

Of course, the main thing was that the Jade Lotus of Destiny was with Su Yi. The secondary thing was that he had lost face.

After the three seniors finished discussing, they said to the juniors like Su Yi.

All of you listen well. After the ruins are opened, we old ghosts will head to the depths of the ruins. All of you, the younger generation, are free to explore the periphery of the ruins. You must not head to the depths. Otherwise, you can not blame anyone for losing your lives.

These words were said by Li Xuande. Old Master Nie and Old Master Lin Yan were unable to speak in such a serious manner in front of Nie Ling. Hence, this matter was coincidentally left to Li Xuande, who often had a stern expression, to complete.

At this moment, elder Nie also jumped down from the bow of the boat. He slowly came to Su Yis side and looked at him with a sharp gaze as he said indifferently.

Su Yi, kid, dont forget what you promised.
