C331 Ice Tomb
C331 Ice Tomb
"Uh, can I ask, what is the name of the last place that has the most likely Thousand-year Mystic Ice?"
Ye Kai was suspicious and couldn't help but ask.
"Ice Tomb!"
Hsiao Hui slightly opened her white teeth and spat out two words.
"Ice... Tomb?"
Ye Kai repeated. The combination of these two words was a little strange!
"Auntie Xiao, this Ice Tomb... is it a tomb?"
Ye Kai thought for a while and asked, not understanding what was going on.
"It's the graveyard of the gods!"
Lyu Linkang suddenly said this and stood up with a cold face. He turned around and left the restaurant without looking back.
"Brother Lu, he..."
Ye Kai wanted to stop him, but when he saw that Loong Aotian and Hsiao Hui did not say anything, he forcefully suppressed his curiosity and doubt and did not say anything.
"Forget it, that was his sad past. After so many years, he still couldn't let go of this knot in his heart. He was afraid that he would never be able to solve this knot in his heart for the rest of his life. Let's eat! "
Loong Aotian waved his hand and gestured for everyone to continue eating and drinking.
Because of Lyu Linkang's departure, everyone's meals became a little dull.
Loong Rumeng, on the other hand, had a lot of good food because she had never felt so relaxed before. Moreover, she seemed to have an endless conversation with Chu Shuangshuang.
After they had almost finished eating, Ye Kai was still brooding over the 'Ice Tomb' that Hsiao Hui had mentioned earlier. After which, he opened his mouth and asked, "Auntie Xiao, I am a person. I am aware of some things that I am not clear about. You were especially persistent and did not say it out loud just now. What kind of place is that Ice Tomb exactly? Furthermore, you all said that we can't be sure if there really is a Thousand-year Mystic Ice there. But just now, he said that Brother Lu seems to be very familiar with that place called Ice Tomb. Doesn't that mean that he doesn't know about that graveyard? Is there really a Thousand-year Mystic Ice there? "
Loong Aotian took a sip of the tea that the butler and servant had just handed over and looked at Ye Kai. He then said, "Ice Tomb is not a graveyard. On the contrary, it is very large. It is so huge that you cannot imagine it! Lyu Linkang used to be a member of Ice Tomb. As for the grudges between him and Ice Tomb, I don't want to tell you this, you better ask him. The reason why he couldn't confirm whether there was a Thousand-year Mystic Ice in the Ice Tomb was because it was easy to explain. That was, other than the previous leaders of Ice Tomb, no one else knew about the secrets of Ice Tomb. Unfortunately, the current leader of Ice Tomb... After Lyu Linkang left the Ice Tomb, there was no longer any trace of him."
"This sounds like a story full of grudges and killings in the Pugilistic World, but I don't understand. How can you be sure that there are seven places in the Great Land of Huaxia where Thousand-year Mystic Ice is most likely hidden? The last place is the Ice Tomb? Also, since it's confirmed, with the power of the Loong family... Why couldn't he just go to the Ice Tomb and spend a huge sum of money to buy that Thousand-year Mystic Ice? "
After Ye Kai heard what Loong Aotian said, he voiced out all the doubts in his heart.
" Let me answer this question! "
The beautiful woman, Hsiao Hui, slowly stood up and looked into the distance. After a long time, she turned to Ye Kai and said, "As for how we found out about this, it contains something that you cannot touch. But there is one thing I can tell you. In this world... There is almost nothing that can't be touched in the Loong family. I used the word 'almost'. If I must list out those places that I cannot touch, then Ice Tomb... One of them!"
Even the Loong family, which had a monstrous power and could eliminate the Duan family from the four small families with just a raise of their hand, had some places that they couldn't touch?
" Ye Kai, you don't have to be surprised. To the people in Ice Tomb who are related to our Loong family... As long as he has the slightest bit of combat strength, he will enter the Ice Tomb. Therefore, there is only one way for us, the Loong family, to enter the Ice Tomb, and that is... We will use the Loong family's power to declare war on the Ice Tomb!"
Loong Aotian explained to Ye Kai in a flat tone.
"Oh. Of course, it was the same for the people of Ice Tomb. If they dare to behave atrociously in the territory of our Loong family, they naturally won't be able to return alive. Hehe, you don't have to look at me like that. I know what you want to ask. That Lyu Linkang no longer had any relationship with the Ice Tomb. Strictly speaking, he had nothing to do with the Ice Tomb anymore. That's why he treats Loong family as a place where no one is around."
Loong Aotian looked at Ye Kai who was staring at him with a puzzled expression and said with a smile.
"In that case... Is there really no way to obtain this Thousand-year Mystic Ice?"
Ye Kai shook his head gently. He looked at Loong Aotian and Hsiao Hui and asked with a frown.
"Yes!"
Loong Aotian answered firmly.
"Oh? What is that? Let me say something unpleasant. Since there is, then hurry up. Although I can help Miss Long suppress her illness once every seven days, however, it's better to delay this kind of thing sooner rather than later... Why do I feel that Uncle Loong and Auntie Xiao... aren't you guys too anxious?"
Ye Kai was straightforward and straightforward. In his heart, he was anxious for Loong Rumeng.
"Hehe..."
"Hahahaha..."
Loong Aotian and Hsiao Hui laughed at the same time.
Indeed, in this world, there was no one who was more anxious about Loong Rumeng's condition than the two of them. No one cared more about Loong Rumeng's life and death than the two of them, even for a second. The two of them would not wait any longer!
"Previously, we had always been lucky, hoping that the location of the Thousand-year Mystic Ice would be... However... things did not go according to our wishes. The Thousand-year Mystic Ice should only be within the Ice Tomb. And when we found this clue, Rumeng's illness... And it's been... "
When Hsiao Hui spoke till here, she seemed to recall the sad past of not long ago when her daughter was about to leave and shed tears, so she slightly lowered her head and did not speak anymore.
Loong Aotian stood up and walked to his wife's side. He gently patted her shoulder. He took the words and continued, "In the last few days, we did not give up. Hire some people with extraordinary strength from outside and send them to Ice Tomb. We want to use an unimaginable price to buy that Thousand-year Mystic Ice. However, there was no more news. The scariness of Ice Tomb is beyond the imagination of ordinary people."
"The problem that money can solve is not a problem. I understand this principle. In other words, the Ice Tomb does not lack anything that the Loong family took out. Or rather, the value of the Thousand-year Mystic Ice. It could not even be mentioned in the same breath as the ___. Is that so?"
Ye Kai asked back.
"That's right! That's why Ah Hui and I have a presumptuous request. I hope that you can consider it carefully and give us an answer!"
Loong Aotian's expression was slightly serious as he looked at Ye Kai and said.
"Ah?"
Ye Kai was confused. He did not understand what Loong Aotian was trying to do.
"Uncle Loong, Auntie Xiao, please tell me what you want to do. As long as I can do it, I will not refuse!"
Ye Kai nodded and replied.
"I am ashamed to say it. We want you to... Go to the Ice Tomb!"
Loong Aotian paused for a moment and finally said it.
"Me?"
Ye Kai pointed at his own nose.
"It's not that I don't want to, nor am I, Ye Kai, timid. It's just that I don't understand. Those people sent by the Loong family... They must be top experts as well. None of them succeeded. Then why are you so sure that I will go and have a chance to win? "
Ye Kai understood that a man like Loong Aotian would not be able to do anything based on a moment of excitement. He must have thought about it carefully and raised the possibility to the highest before taking action.
Therefore, Ye Kai would definitely be able to understand this reason when he asked this question.
"You are the most suitable candidate that we have discussed. You are also the person with the highest chance of obtaining that Thousand-year Mystic Ice! Of course, if that Thousand-year Mystic Ice is really in the Ice Tomb!"
Loong Aotian did not give Ye Kai the chance to ask again. He continued to explain, "Previously, the people we sent were nothing more than paying a high price to pay a visit. Of course, we can't use the name of Loong family. As for the financial and power of Ice Tomb, they are not inferior to our Loong family. Therefore, those people returned with nothing, and even vanished without a trace. And now, we have something that is comparable to the Thousand-year Mystic Ice. I think the Ice Tomb will definitely be interested in it!"
Loong Aotian pointed at Loong Rumeng, who was looking at him attentively.
"Me?"
Loong Rumeng asked with her mouth wide open.
"Stinky girl, what nonsense are you talking about!? I mean, the Heart of the Red Brightness Crystal in your hand!"
Loong Aotian shouted softly.
"Firstly, the weight of the heart of the red crystal will definitely move them. Secondly, with Ye Kai's medical skills, you will be able to enter the Ice Tomb. Perhaps it will be of great use, or even an opportunity. Thirdly, Ye Kai, you don't have to hide it from me. I can tell. Your skills might be weaker than Linkang's, but compared to Yang Da and Lau Er... In terms of one-on-one combat... Hehe, you should be slightly better than him! This fourth place... If you went to ask for the Thousand-year Mystic Ice for your girlfriend's treatment, thinking about it... Those old 'monsters' in the Ice Tomb should have some sympathy for you, right?"
Loong Aotian rubbed his chin and said meaningfully.
"Even if I don't fully understand the first few points, I still completely believe in you, Uncle Loong. But this last point... I went to ask for the Thousand-year Mystic Ice for my girlfriend's treatment? You mean... "
Ye Kai vaguely guessed something, but he did not directly point it out.
"Hahahaha, young man, thin-skinned, since you have guessed it... Why don't you tell me? That's right, you are going this time to bring Rumeng along. And your identities will naturally be that of a couple. Do you understand what I mean? "
Loong Aotian smiled and asked Ye Kai again.
