Qing Dao did not leave immediately.
He stood outside the house, his eyebrows raised slightly. He wanted to see what that black shadow was!
This small ruin did not seem simple!
The entire ruin space was vast, and separated by who knows how many years. Apart from the city area, the wilderness still maintained a vibrant life, like another world.
This already surprised Qing Dao.
Moreover, not only did the city have stone generals comparable to his strength, but it also had strange black shadows appearing. This was definitely not something a small ruin would have.
"There's something strange about this black shadow. Perhaps if I catch it, I'll know what's going on!" Qing Dao snorted, not leaving, and prepared to wait another ten minutes. .oΓg
If what those two guys said earlier was true, then after ten minutes, when the house automatically closed, that black shadow would reappear!
As for whether the black shadow would pose a threat to him?
Qing Dao chuckled. As one of the top Earth-level powerhouses of the Dark Association, he did not believe that the black shadow could be strong enough to threaten him. Otherwise, this would not be a small ruin, but a medium or large ruin.
Moreover, the black shadow knew to flee just now, which meant that the other party was also wary of him.
Suddenly, a cry came from afar.
It seemed like something had happened over there!
Just a moment later, a Yellow-level member of the Dark Association hurried over and reported, "Sir, someone discovered an underground passage in the rear, and the Temple of Light has already taken people there."
"Underground passage?"
Qing Dao was stunned for a moment, and then his breathing became rapid. He hurriedly asked, "Did the people from the Temple of Light discover it?"
"No, it was discovered by people from the China Dragon Group. However, the underground passage seems to be guarded by stone figures, and they did not enter successfully. Now, the Temple of Light knows the news and has already taken people there!"
"Then what are you waiting for? Notify everyone, and head to the underground passage immediately!"
Qing Dao gritted his teeth fiercely. An underground passage?
That must be the meditation room where the owner of this city lord's mansion usually meditated. Such a place is where true treasures are stored, and it is also very likely to be where the Heart of the Ruins is located.
We can't let the people from the Temple of Light get there first!
As for the China Dragon Group? Qing Dao didn't care much. Although they seemed to have many people, in his eyes, they were just a group of juniors.
Unless, someone from the Hidden Group was hiding in the dark!
But did the Hidden Group really send people?
If that were the case, and they still hadn't appeared until now, that guy was truly patient!
Qing Dao looked up at the house in front of him, his brows furrowed slightly, and then he decided to ignore this place for now and turned to leave.
Compared to the Heart of the Ruins, nothing else mattered!
As soon as Qing Dao left, Ye Cangtian slowly walked out from the shadows not far away.
"Mu Chenglong and the others discovered an underground passage?" He couldn't help but frown.
If the underground passage was discovered secretly, it would indeed be a good thing! But now that the Temple of Light and the Dark Association both knew, the Dragon Group would be in danger.
Ye Cangtian then looked up at that house again, and felt a bit strange.
Qing Dao seemed to have discovered something! Otherwise, he wouldn't have been lingering outside this room for so long.
"Forget it, let's go and see the situation first!" Although Ye Cangtian also wanted to see what was going on with these houses and why people were killed after being trapped.
But the Dragon Group was in more danger now, so he had to go and see.
...
The City Lord's Mansion had a total of ten side halls, and each side hall had many houses.
Before, the houses in these ten side halls had almost all been searched, and many people had reaped considerable rewards.
Apart from those small factions and scattered armed elements, both the Dragon Group and Pandora had gained a lot, after all, compared to those small factions, their overall strength was not weak, and they had not suffered any losses before.
Later, on the Dragon Group's side, Xu Shi'an discovered an underground passage behind the ten side halls.
When everyone arrived there and prepared to enter the underground passage, they found that it was guarded by stone figures, and their numbers were not small.
Forced to do so, the Dragon Group members had to retreat.
It wasn't until the people from the Temple of Light arrived that the situation for the Dragon Group became delicate.
"Scum from the Temple of Light!"
Seeing a group of people approaching, Mu Chenglong angrily gritted his teeth and cursed. What he hated most now were these guys from the Temple of Light.
It was precisely because people from the Temple of Light had injured him and two other teammates, and even one of his teammates was seriously injured and died.
"So you're not dead? Hmph, you're quite lucky!" In the Temple of Light, the purple-robed bishop named Philip seemed somewhat surprised.
Then he looked at Mu Chenglong and the Dragon Group members behind him, and sneered, "Little juniors of the Dragon Group, if you know what's good for you, hand over the passage. The treasures in this place are not something you can covet."
Although China was indeed a strong opponent, especially the mysterious Hidden Group, even the Temple of Light had to be wary of them.
But in this ruin, their Temple of Light was the strongest force here, not even the Dark Association could compare to them.
Seeing the angry faces of the Dragon Group members, Philip smiled, turned to Cardinal Hassall, and said proactively, "Your Eminence, should we kill all these juniors?"
Cardinal Hassall frowned slightly and shook his head, "No need!"
China was not to be trifled with. Once these Dragon Group members were killed here, it would surely anger China. The Temple of Light did not want to offend the people of the Hidden Group at this time.
Bishop Philip seemed a little regretful, but he still nodded and turned to Mu Chenglong and the others, saying, "Aren't you going to hand over the passage? Take advantage of the fact that the Cardinal hasn't changed his mind yet, and you all leave!"
On the Dragon Group's side, everyone gritted their teeth.
Xu Shi'an also looked displeased and couldn't help but step forward, "Damn it, we discovered this place, why should you go in? If you have the guts, kill us all!"
Zhang Liang pulled his sleeve and shook his head secretly.
In this ruin, the Temple of Light was indeed very strong. At least their Dragon Group couldn't fight them now. Not to mention that they had a Cardinal, a top-tier expert.
Just those four purple-robed bishops were not something they could deal with.
Mu Chenglong had been seriously injured by the purple-robed bishop named Philip before. Mu Chenglong was very strong, and he was the strongest person in this team besides Brother Ye, yet he still lost.
It could be seen that they had no advantage here at all!
Shangguan Yun also nodded helplessly and whispered, "Why don't we give them the passage? Anyway, there are many stone figures inside, and we can't deal with them. Mu Chenglong, what do you think?"
Mu Chenglong gritted his teeth fiercely. Although he was unwilling, he was also clear about their situation at this moment, so he nodded.
"I have no objections!"
"Then we'll give up the passage!" Zhang Liang sighed lightly.
Just as the Dragon Group members were making way and preparing to withdraw to the side, footsteps sounded from afar, and they saw the people from the Dark Association rushing over.
And Qing Dao, who was at the forefront, said in a voice like a bell.
"Dragon Group members, all of you stay here. Today, our Dark Association will avenge our past humiliation! No one will leave!"
