"What? Spirit Stone Mine? Are you still teasing me?"
The middle-aged young woman was happy at first, but then she thought of something and looked a little confused.
A spirit stone mine is not a metal mine. After a spirit stone mine is mined and cut into the size for circulation in the market, it can be used. After a metal mine is mined, it must undergo complex refining to produce ore, and the ore must be sold to obtain spirit stones. The labor cost of the latter is relatively high.
Han Dehao showed a hesitant expression on his face. To be honest, he really didn't want to betray his family, but he couldn't turn back.
"What? Do you think you can walk out of here safely today after betraying our Chen family?"
There was a flash of murderous intent in the middle-aged young woman's eyes, and she summoned a misty green flying sword.
Han Dehao was so scared that he broke out in a cold sweat and said quickly, "I dare not. Everything I said is true. Our Han family's foundation-building cultivators rarely show up. They are guarding the spirit stone mine. If you investigate carefully, you will definitely find some clues."
He couldn't turn back. If he didn't reveal the secret, he might not be able to leave the yard.
Tinghai Pavilion prohibits fighting in the market town, but that is on the premise of causing some noise.
A soundproof array was set up in the yard. If the other party killed him, no one would know. Even if they knew, he would be dead already. What would happen to his wife and children
Generally speaking, the foundation-building cultivators of immortal cultivation families will organize monster hunting teams to hunt monsters, in order to earn some spirit stones and to hone themselves. Not only immortal cultivation families, but also immortal cultivation sects will organize people to hunt monsters. After all, the East China Sea is rich in monster resources, which is also a major source of income for various forces. If the strength is too weak, there will be no monster hunting team.
The number of foundation-building cultivators in the Han family increases year by year, and Han Changming is the most dazzling one. However, Han Dehao has not heard of Han Changming for several years. He also inquired about Han Changming's whereabouts, but no one knew Han Changming's whereabouts.
He guessed that Han Changming was transferred to guard the spirit stone mine. This was reasonable. Han Changming had been in the limelight in recent years and had extraordinary strength. If a spirit stone mine was really discovered, it would be normal for Han Zhangxiang to send Han Changming to guard it.
"I'll trust you once more. If you dare to play tricks, not only will Liu Wu and the others die, you won't have an easy time either. This is the antidote to the Hundred Poison Pills. It's enough for you to use for half a year. If it's not something very important, don't come here."
The middle-aged woman took out a white porcelain bottle and threw it to Han Dehao.
In addition to his wife and children being killed by the Chen family, Han Dehao was also poisoned by a strange poison. He tried taking antidote pills, but not only did they fail to detoxify him, he almost died from the poison. From then on, Han Dehao dared not resist and obeyed the Chen family's orders obediently.
Han Dehao took the white porcelain bottle, agreed, and turned to leave.
Caixia Island, Chen family.
In a certain green attic, Han Desheng was lying on the bed with his eyes closed and his breath weak.
Chen Hongming and Chen Yufeng stood aside, both with worried looks on their faces.
“Hmm!”
Han Desheng suddenly opened his heavy eyelids and saw Chen Hongming and Chen Yufeng. He wanted to sit up, but was stopped by Chen Hongming.
"Yuanhua, thank God, you finally woke up."
Chen Hongming helped Han Desheng up and said with some relief.
That day they were poisoned and the enemy was chasing them relentlessly. Fortunately, Han Desheng blocked the fatal blow for Chen Hongming, otherwise Chen Hongming would have died. The price was that Han Desheng lost a hand.
"Chief, are you okay?"
Han Desheng forced a smile and asked with concern.
If he had not blocked the fatal blow for Chen Hongming at that critical moment, he would not have survived.
"The remaining poison has not been eradicated yet. This group of people are experts in using poison. Just recuperate for a period of time. Yuanhua, thanks to you, otherwise I would not be able to come back."
Chen Hongming showed an expression of lingering fear on his face. The enemy was good at using poison, and the residual poison in his body had not been eliminated. This time his vitality was seriously damaged, and he needed to recuperate for a period of time.
"This is what I should do, Patriarch, what is going on with the ancient cultivator's cave? How could there be an ambush?"
Han Desheng asked somewhat puzzled.
Chen Hongming was convinced of the existence of this ancient cultivator's cave, which made Han Desheng a little confused.
"There's a problem with the inside line. If the inside line hasn't been exposed, then we're just shielding someone from disaster."
Chen Hongming frowned. He felt that the chance of the insider being exposed was small. If the Han family was really plotting against Chen Hongming, Han Zhangxiang should have taken action.
He guessed that someone was plotting against Han Changjing, and the Chen family had accidentally fallen into the trap.
"Inside line? What inside line? What on earth is going on?"
Han Desheng asked curiously.
He blocked the fatal blow for Chen Hongming. Chen Hongming did not doubt Han Desheng and simply recounted what had happened.
"Han Dehao's existence is a secret of our clan. Don't spread it to others, let alone tell others."
Han Desheng agreed without hesitation, but he was shocked that Han Dehao was actually a spy for the Chen family.
You know, Han Dehao is a genuine member of the Han family, and Han Desheng is just using a special magic weapon to take over the body of a member of the Chen family. The two are not the same.
"It seems that we have to find a chance to pass the news back, otherwise the nineteenth brother will cause a disaster sooner or later."
Han Desheng thought secretly, feeling a little heavy.
······
Huludao, Han family.
In a bluestone square of over one hundred acres, the Han family is holding a clan competition.
The Han family holds a small competition every three years, and all contestants are Qi Refining cultivators. The big competition is held every ten years, and both Foundation Establishment cultivators and Qi Refining cultivators can participate.
There are more than a dozen green arenas over a hundred feet in size, each of which is covered by a green light curtain, and dozens of Han family cultivators are sparring with each other.
Han Zhangxiang sat on the rostrum, watching the Han family members competing with each other.
The Han family's generation order is "Zhengda Guangmingyuan", "Wenwen Daodechang", "Benduan Zhongyongmao", "Zili Shiyanfang", "Yilong Renshengxian", "Guoxing Zhenjiabang", "Guangxin Zhaohongda" and "Sixu Qiyuanchang". Currently the youngest generation is the "Ben" generation, and Han Benfu is the eldest of this generation.
On a certain arena, Han Benfu held a red flying sword and released red sword energy, forcing back a well-mannered young man in a blue shirt on the opposite side.
The young man in blue shirt held a light blue short ruler in his hand and released dozens of blue ruler shadows, which hit the red sword energy.
A rumbling sound was heard, and the blue ruler shadow was shattered by the red sword energy.
A red light flashed, and a long red rainbow shot out. The protective aura of the young man in blue shirt was like paper and was torn to pieces in an instant. The red light flew past, and the young man in blue shirt was unharmed.
"Han Benfu wins."
Following the referee's decision, Han Benfu smiled and put away her flying sword.
She jumped off the ring and ran towards Ye Xue.
"Mom, I won again."
Han Benfu laughed and said that she was very happy because she had won many games in a row.
"Look at what you are capable of. You should be humble. If your father were here, he would have said something bad about you."
Ye Xue said this in a reproachful tone, but her eyes were filled with deep doting.
As a parent, who doesn’t want their children to become successful
"Why hasn't Dad come back yet? He and Auntie haven't been back for several years."
Han Benfu frowned and said that she hadn't seen Han Changming for several years.
"Your father has something to do, so he can't come back for the time being. Don't worry! Your father and aunt will return safely."
Ye Xue said this with deep worry in her eyes.
If the three children were not still young, she would have wanted to go look for Han Changming and Ye Xin.
"The clan competition ends here. The first place is Han Changluo, the second place is Han Changjiu... the ninth place is Han Benmin, and the tenth place is Han Benfu."
The Han family is ranked according to the number of wins, so it is already very good for Han Benfu to make it into the top ten.
According to clan rules, the top ten in the clan competition will receive rewards.
