Chapter 154: The Tomb-Raiding Duo
A year passed by in the blink of an eye. During this year, Wu Hao and Su Qiaoran had been searching the Upper Realm for a suitable place to serve as the Wu Family's base in the Upper Realm, but after searching for a long time, Wu Hao had not found anything suitable.
Either the places were already occupied, or their layout was poor.
For a powerhouse of Wu Hao's level, Feng Shui was not some baseless theory but a tangible reality, which was why the layout of a location was extremely important to him.
"I almost forgot. The layout of the Ember Extinction Forbidden Ground in the Lower Realm was quite good. After returning, I will need to relocate the Lower Realm Wu Family there."
Wu Hao thought to himself. He recalled the Nine Dragon Mountain Worship layout he had encountered in the Ember Extinction Forbidden Ground of the Lower Realm, but such layouts were almost always occupied by major powers once they appeared.
Besides, Wu Hao was not some bandit who would wipe out an entire clan for no reason.
"Husband, why don't we just find any place? Our Wu Family doesn't need to have such high standards."
Su Qiaoran hesitated for a moment before speaking.
Hearing this, Wu Hao pondered whether to agree. It wasn't that he couldn't find a place with good Feng Shui; his standards were simply too high. In fact, the places he had found were considered quite good even for Immortal Venerable-level powers.
But just then, Wu Hao sensed something and couldn't help but reveal a look of surprise.
This expression was naturally caught by his wife, and Su Qiaoran asked curiously.
"Husband, what is it?"
"Let's go. I'll take you somewhere first."
After saying this, Wu Hao took Su Qiaoran and disappeared.
Meanwhile, beneath a large mountain about three hundred Mystic Heaven Realm distances away from Wu Hao and the others, several underground passages were hidden. Although they were passages, they were extremely prosperous and did not look like ordinary places.
Inside the tunnels, two figures, one fat and one sturdy, were moving forward cautiously.
"Duan De, is it really okay for us to be tomb-raiding?"
Wu Yifan said with some hesitation.
But regarding Wu Yifan's words, Duan De patted his chest and said.
"Big Brother, how can we be considered tomb-raiding? We are acting on behalf of Heaven! The people of the Lin Family are so arrogant and domineering; I imagine their Old Ancestor wasn't a good person either. Why should such a person be allowed to rest in peace? Moreover, the Lin Family Ancestor must have a lot of funeral objects. If we can get our hands on them, we might make a huge profit."
When he got to the end, Duan De seemed to think of something and couldn't help but chuckle.
Seeing this, Wu Yifan could only sigh and let him be.
Some time ago, Wu Yifan told Li Pangtian that the speed of cultivation within the Ancient Desolate Holy Land was getting significantly slower, so he requested to go out for training. Li Pangtian naturally would not refuse Wu Yifan's request, so he agreed and secretly dispatched an Immortal Emperor Middle Stage Dao Protector to protect Wu Yifan from the shadows.
Wu Yifan was naturally unaware of this.
The Dao Protector was named Li Zhengran. Seeing the performance of Wu Yifan and Duan De from the shadows, he couldn't help but shake his head, thinking about whether he should just eliminate Duan De to avoid him leading their Holy Son astray.
As for the grudge between the Holy Son and Duan De with the Lin Family some time ago, he was also aware of it. It was when Wu Yifan and Duan De were outside hunting a Golden Immortal Peak Yao Beast (in fact, Wu Yifan did all the work, while Duan De could only cheer from the sidelines).
Later, the Lin Family's Young Lord, Lin Xukun, jumped out and stated in a tough manner that he had set his eyes on this Yao Beast first. Because this was for training, Wu Yifan and Duan De did not reveal their identities.
As for the Lin Family, they were considered a relatively powerful force in the Upper Realm, with several Immortal Venerables guarding the sect, so Wu Yifan and Duan De did not go directly to their doorstep.
But this did not prevent them from retaliating against the Lin Family. So, at Duan De's suggestion, the two of them set their sights on the tomb of a Lin Family Ancestor who had died by accident. As a Lin Family Ancestor, there must be quite a few funeral objects.
"However, that Duan De really has some skills. The tomb of the Lin Family Ancestor contains numerous Restrictions, yet he has managed to dodge every single one of them."
Li Zhengran said with some surprise, but he did not intervene.
The fact that the Lin Family Young Lord dared to treat their Ancient Desolate Holy Land's Saint in this way was, in his view, already a reason to die. It was just because this was the Saint's business, and the Saint had not spoken up; otherwise, he would have wiped out the Lin Family long ago.
Although there were many Immortal Venerables, in front of an Immortal Emperor, they were just slightly stronger ants.
Just like that, under Duan De's guidance, Wu Yifan bypassed the Restrictions along the way and approached the tomb of the Lin Family Ancestor.
Meanwhile, in the shadows, Wu Hao had also brought Su Qiaoran here.
Su Qiaoran saw Wu Yifan at the first glance and said with some surprise.
"Is that Holy Son Yifan? What is he doing now?"
"Nothing much, just tomb-raiding."
Wu Hao shrugged indifferently, which made Su Qiaoran's expression change.
After all, as a son of her Wu Family, how could he pick up such a bad habit as tomb-raiding? However, since Wu Hao already knew the reason for the matter, he didn't really care.
After hearing the reason for the matter, Su Qiaoran couldn't help but stomp her feet in anger.
"This Lin Family Young Lord is actually so tyrannical. Holy Son Yifan did the right thing. If it were me, I would have wiped out the Lin Family long ago."
"Do you have the strength to do that?"
"Isn't there still you?"
Su Qiaoran looked at Wu Hao and said with a serious face. Over this period, she had seen Wu Hao's strength. Even if Wu Hao told her that not even an Immortal Emperor was his match, she would choose to believe him without hesitation.
"However, Holy Son Yifan is the Saint of the Ancient Desolate Holy Land. Would the people of the Ancient Desolate Holy Land really be so at ease letting Holy Son Yifan come out alone?"
Su Qiaoran thought of something else and said with a hint of complaint.
Wu Hao, however, had a strange expression. He was well aware of Wu Yifan's status within the Ancient Desolate Holy Land, so he naturally knew that the Ancient Desolate Holy Land could not possibly have failed to arrange a Dao Protector for Wu Yifan.
Therefore, after arriving here, Wu Hao sensed a powerful aura hidden not far away, which should be Wu Yifan's Dao Protector. However, the other party had not discovered Wu Hao's existence, so Wu Hao had no intention of revealing himself proactively.
Withdrawing his gaze from the Dao Protector, Wu Hao stared at Duan De beside Wu Yifan, a playful expression appearing on his face.
"I didn't expect this kid to actually have a Divine Artifact on him. I can borrow it for a bit; it should be able to help me find a suitable place for the Wu Family to settle down."
On the other side, for some reason, Duan De shivered as if he had been targeted by something terrifying.
But he quickly shook his head. He had the protection of a Divine Artifact, and standing beside him was the Saint of the Ancient Desolate Holy Land. Even if they were discovered by the Lin Family, the Lin Family wouldn't dare to hold them accountable.
After all, although the Lin Family was powerful, in front of the Ancient Desolate Holy Land, they weren't even worth a speck of dust.
"As long as we get the funeral objects of the Lin Family Ancestor, not only can we disgust the Lin Family, but we can also make a huge profit. Why not do it?"
Thinking of this, Duan De and Wu Yifan arrived before the coffin of the Lin Family Ancestor.
