The Ghost of Fog
Chapter 73. Bitter Gathering

A few hours passed and they reached an area filled with hills. Because they did not know where to go, so these three people just ran along the path that was still straight and continued to enter the hills.

The hilly area was filled with various kinds of trees that were high, even the afternoon sun was not able to mash the lush leaves of the tree. So it was still afternoon, but the situation there was dim and dark.

About an hour later, the sun had completely sunk and the situation in the forest had become very dark. Even the three of them felt as if they no longer had their dark eyes.

"We stop here first, tomorrow we continue!" zhang Hongli.

"Make a campfire!!" he continued while collecting some dry wood around.

As soon as the campfire was made, the three of them sat in a circle. There was no conversation whatsoever, just sitting still and immersed in each other's thoughts.

Lin Tian took off his mask and sighed. His face looked very grim because he was too worried about his young Miss. As for Minghao who saw the young man's face, he quietly became amazed at that enormous good looks.

"Huh...actually where the hell is the Alliance's headquarters?" muttered Lin Tian while sighing. His face looks very tired.

There was no answer to Lin Tian's remark. Zhang Hongli who even knew that the headquarters was in the West, but he did not know where the specific location of the headquarters was, that's why he was unable to answer and just kept quiet.

As for Minghao, this man was also speechless as he only knew the location of the headquarters from mere rumors, which said that the headquarters of the Black faction Alliance were in the Western area.

"Teacher..what if we were misguided?" after a long time, Lin Tian finally said again. His tone sounded very desperate.

Zhang Hongli was silent, confused as to what to answer. After a few seconds, he was only able to say, "I don't know Lin Tian either..."

"I hope Miss is okay...."

...****************...

The next day, early in the morning when the sun had not yet risen, the three men continued on their way. It turned out that the journey was still quite far, along the road they did not find any villages or houses at all. Until during the day, they saw a very magnificent house in the distance there.

"Whatis that? That's the place?"

"It's better to check in there directly teacher."

"Good idea, come on!!"

These three people rushed quickly towards the house. From a distance of approximately fifty meters, they lurk behind the bushes.

"It is true that this is the place of Master. Look at that, isn't that the exact same as the clothes of the Alliance's people?" minghao said as he pointed towards the gatekeeper of the house.

Lin Tian and Zhang Hongli nodded while looking at where Minghao's hand was pointing.

Up ahead, the house is nothing like a palace. Standing majestically with a very large courtyard complete with a garden as well as ponds. Around the park, around some guards who look strong.

The stronger they thought that this was the place they were headed to when they saw two beautiful women walking slowly towards the door of the house. They are none other than the Beautiful Demon Twins, a great specter for the martial world.

The most surprised was Zhang Hongli, this one grandfather was so surprised that both his eyeballs were glaring wide as if about to come out. This naturally made Lin Tian and Minghao feel astonished, then Lin Tian asked.

"Teacher, what's wrong?"

"Hm.really strange, I still remember very well how twenty years ago when I had fought with them. His face did not change at all!!" zhang Hongli replied.

"Huh?"

"What's? Where's possible?"

Upon hearing this speech, Lin Tian's head was like being struck by lightning so surprised. What science do they use to make the body and face is still beautiful makeup? Thought this young man.

"I'm also surprised, maybe their age is almost the same as mine" he continued.

Minghao and Lin Tian looked towards Zhang Hongli and the two women in turn, as if not believing in this reality.

"Here you go, we better get ready to infiltrate there. Whether the house is the Alliance headquarters or the home of the Xiao Fu people, we must definitely go there to see whether or not my grandchildren exist."

After saying so, Zhnag Hongli walked into the crowd of trees and sat down on a rock. Minghao and Lin Tian followed. They sat like that until nightfall.

...****************...

At midnight, these three people started to move. They are jumping around like demons because they are so fast.

These three people had easily jumped through the perimeter wall without being noticed in the slightest. Of course this is very easy for those whose knowledge is very high.

As soon as they arrived at the spacious front yard of the house, with lightning fast they slipped behind the ornamental plants of the yard. Then led by Zhang Hongli, these three people headed towards the side house.

"Let's go in!" zhang Hongli said half in a whisper.

After Lin Tian and Zhang Hongli nodded their heads in agreement, this grandfather langaung jumped towards the window and opened it slowly. Followed by the student and his partner, these three people entered the house.

It turned out that the room in the house was so magnificent that it made these three people gawk so surprised and amazed. In the corners of the room, there are various kinds of furniture and jars made of silver or gold.

The floor of the room was made of an extremely white and glittering white jade. On the walls there are also various kinds of beautiful ancient paintings.

But only briefly they are in such a state, because a few seconds later, the three are already able to control themselves again and are reminded of the initial goal. So, they continued on their way into the room deeper.

Continuing to walk into the inner room, the three of them were always presented with a luxurious view. Also, there are things that make the three of them quite amazed by the state of this super magnificent house.

"Why are there so few bodyguards we've met?"

"True, outside was only seen a few."

"Something seems wrong..."

"So teacher, how good is it now?"

"We just continue. You want a trap or whatever, if it's for my grandson's safety, I'm not afraid!" zhang Hongli replied with a sharp eye. If it was like now, this grandfather really looked very dignified and dashing.

"True, if it's for the sake of the young lady, whatever it is I'm going through!" inner Lin Tian while clenching his hands to strengthen his heart.

A few minutes later, they arrived in a room that seemed to be the very back of the house. There was a door made of thick iron.

Seeing this, the three of them looked at each other for a moment. Like communicating through the eyes, then they nodded their head to understand each other's thoughts. Then Lin Tian stepped forward and tried to open, but there was a thick chain used to lock the door.

"Destroy that chain!" zhang Hongli's orders.

With the Snow Goddess Sword Lin Tian, in just three times the slash alone the chain had already been detached. As soon as the door opened, they saw a long staircase entering the basement. Curious they are. The walls and stairs in that place were made of damp stones.

"Let's go in!"

They stepped carefully and slowly. Tracing each rung of stairs one by one while installing full vigilance will be around. Even though they are currently in a narrow hallway, but do not rule out the possibility if there is a secret tool that can harm them.

And sure enough, as soon as the stairs were up and they arrived at a wide hallway, there was a secret device that Minghao had unequivocally activated when this man stepped on one of the stones in that place.

As soon as this man stepped on an octagonal stone, unexpectedly, from above his head slid dozens of arrows preparing to take his life.

But the basis is that he is a saint, this kind of attack is effective against him. So calmly, Minghao took out his flute and twisted it over his head, protecting his body with the flute's "umbrella.

"Trang-trangs"

The arrows were bounced back and forth without anyone hitting Minghao's body. Seeing this, Zhang Hongli immediately reminded.

"Be careful of traps here! May we have entered the secret room of this house. I hope my granddaughter can see you in there soon."

They go back on their journey. This time it was even more alert than before.

When he had only stepped fifty steps from the previous trap. All of a sudden, the rock that Lin Tian was treading on slid downwards thus making a huge hole.

Adeptly, this young man calted up in the air and landed a few meters ahead, safe from danger.

"Almost just.." muttered Lin Tian.

A few minutes passed and they arrived at the end of the hall which turned out to be a very spacious room.

In the middle of the room, there are several poles that are very high until they touch the ceiling of the room. The pole made of thick wood was about the size of an adult's thigh.

"Hm...what is that?" Lin Tian squinted his eyes as soon as his sight saw an awkwardness on the two wooden poles.

"What's wrong?" minghao asked, which made Zhnag Hongli curious.

Instead of answering, the young man walked up to the two poles. Getting closer, he was surprised that something turned out to be two human body figures. When you look at it, it seems they are a woman.

Unknowingly, Lin Tian accelerated his pace. And once it was close, how shocked and heartbroken Lin Tian was when he looked at one of those bodies. Spontaneously he shouted to the surprise of the two people behind him.

"Young lady!!"

...ΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩ...
