Chapter 241 The Team at the Trace-less Hotel

Although I've signed a confidentiality agreement, there's no Yuan Ting in the group, so no need to worry about leaks.

Zhang Yuanqing pondered for a few seconds, planning to tell his teammates the identity of the leader of the Dark Night Rose.

These few not only had a strong vested interest with him, but also a life-or-death friendship, and were trustworthy partners within the same gang.

To some extent, these people had all had the thought of "tying Yuanshi Tianzun to themselves."

Zhang Yuanqing typed the message: "The leader of the Dark Night Rose is Ling Tuo, the seventeenth son of the Taiyi Sect Master, and Shanhe Yongcun is his follower."

This Ling Tuo is the Taiyi Sect Master's most outstanding offspring, a peak Overlord before the age of thirty, who returned to The Way of the Extraordinary in 1999, or at least that's what the Taiyi Sect publicly claims.

As if a bomb exploded in their minds, setting off a world-destroying tsunami, whether it was the scheming Tianxiaguihuo or the often-detached Xiahou Aotian, they were stunned the moment they saw this information. Sun Miaomiao and Zhao Chenghuang trembled violently after a brief daze. Although the surroundings were calm, their adrenaline was secreted frantically.

At this moment, their trust and sense of security in the organization were destroyed, leading to an exaggerated stress response in their bodies.

Discovering a secret organization infiltrating the official and The Way of the Extraordinary families, the leader of the evil secret organization was actually the Sect Master's son.

This wasn't just a case of corruption within the organization; this was practically treason.

For members of the Taiyi Sect, this was a major event that subverted their values and destroyed organizational trust and loyalty.

Yuanshi Tianzun replied with another message.

[Just know about it, don't spread it, it's not good for you.]

[Sun Miaomiao: Oh god, why did I ask? Why did I have to know this? Am I going to be silenced?]

[You Neng Hui: Hurry up and have a baby with Yuanshi Tianzun to leave behind a bloodline. If possible, I would also like to contribute my meager strength. I don't mind.]

[Sun Miaomiao: Get lost, you pervert.]

Sun Miaomiao sent a series of abusive emoticons, and her mentality stabilized a little after his joking.

Tianxiaguihuo: @Yuanshi Tianzun, do you know the detailed inside story? What was the purpose of that person forming the Dark Night Rose? Who authorized it? Will the Taiyi Sect and the official side have a conflict because of this?

While the others were still immersed in shock, Tianxiaguihuo had already begun to think about deeper things.

What Tianxiaguihuo was worried about was that Ling Tuo's formation of the Dark Night Rose was authorized by the Taiyi Sect Master, and now that this matter had been exposed, a conflict might occur between the major official organizations? A bit of conspiracy theory, but it’s hard to say.

These big shots' conspiracy theories were better than the naive.

Zhang Yuanqing typed: "I can't give you an answer, but that seventeenth son is an Overlord-level expert, cultivating Taiyin Power, not weaker than the Taiyi Sect Master."

Tianxiaguihuo: Understood.

Immediately, he retracted the question he had just asked.

[Zhao Chenghuang: The more this is the case, the more I desire to improve my level. Hard strength is always the greatest reliance.]

Even Xiahou Aotian was a little impatient, wishing the gang dungeon would open immediately so he could raise his level to six as soon as possible.

[Yuanshi Tianzun: Yes, so at the time, I had the Marshal search for a large pile of Wraith and Yin Corpses at the Saint stage for me in the Ghost City, greatly enhancing my own strength.] After this sentence, the group chat ended, and no one spoke again.

I should show off less in the future, it's not good to always hit them, after all, they are all proud young talents.

Zhang Yuanqing was about to exit the chat software when he suddenly saw Xiahou Aotian privately messaging him.

[Xiahou Aotian: Do you have a Heavenly Sacrifice Set?]

Yuanshi Tianzun: Yes.

Because of the Cai Longshen incident, the Heavenly Sacrifice Set was no longer a secret among the official higher-ups. It was only because his wings had hardened now. If the set had existed when he was in the Extraordinary stage, the development of the situation might have been that Yuanshi Tianzun was stabbed, and the official would have ruled it a suicide.

[Xiahou Aotian: I found out that the First Emperor was the first person in history to comprehend the mysteries of the Five Elements. He personally created the Heavenly Sacrifice Set, and communicated with the legendary Vast Heaven through the Mount Tai Fengchan ceremony. It is said that the First Emperor obtained a divine revelation after the Mount Tai Fengchan ceremony and began searching for the elixir of immortality.]

Zhang Yuanqing originally thought that Xiahou Aotian's protagonist's dog mouth couldn't spit out ivory, but he didn't expect it to be such a major piece of information.

"The First Emperor was the first person to comprehend the mysteries of the Five Elements, so the one sleeping in the 'Mysteries of the Five Elements' dungeon is the First Emperor? But that was clearly a Tang Dynasty dungeon."

According to the speculation of events, the power of the Five Elements is endless, and it can be infinitely reborn through the "Secret Seizure" method. Did the First Emperor live to the Tang Dynasty?

Xiahou Aotian: How did you get the Heavenly Sacrifice Set, and you also got the Badass badge? There's karma in the dark, huh?

I learned about the existence of Takamagahara from you…

So that's it, what is this, feels like a big pit, Zhang Yuanqing replied amid a flurry of thoughts:

[Did the ancient Wraith in your ring tell you?]

[Xiahou Aotian: How did you know?!]

#Xiahou Aotian retracted a message#

[Xiahou Aotian: I don't know what you're talking about.]

Alright, stop pretending. Have you forgotten my profession? It's not a big deal. I also know that the ancient Wraith was brought out from the underground palace.]

At the time, Fu Qingyang reviewed the process at the entrance of the underground palace and believed that the "nerve center" controlling the terracotta warriors had not been found, which was a hidden danger. The underground palace team specially asked elders to check their bodies for this reason.

Only Xiahou Aotian did not respond to this matter.

At the time, Zhang Yuanqing had suspected that there was an ancient Wraith dwelling in his ring when he noticed it in Huadu. Now that he had heard Xiahou Aotian's information, it was basically confirmed.

Xiahou Aotian: Alright, it's really not a big deal. After all, this is a natural opportunity for the protagonist. I'm mainly afraid you're jealous.]

You're thinking too much. I have a pile of Demon Monarch's relics, a Wan Jie Trading Company General Ticket, a Heavenly Sacrifice Set, an upgradable rule-type item, and my cousin's favor. Why would I be jealous of your ring grandpa?

Yuanshi Tianzun: Yes, yes, yes, the protagonist's treatment is not something we supporting characters can have. Only the protagonist has this opportunity. I am very self-aware.]

Xiahou Aotian: Yuanshi, I just like your transparency.

[Yuanshi Tianzun: I'll send you another piece of information. The characteristic of the power of the Five Elements is endlessness. After death, it condenses into a pill. The person who takes this pill will be seized and recycled.]

After he finished speaking, he exited the chat software.

In Xiahou's villa area, Xiahou Aotian held his phone and whispered, "Old guy, your existence has been discovered by Yuanshi Tianzun, and he even knows that you are an old fossil from the Qin Dynasty…" A hoarse voice came from the ring, "He discovered me last time."

Xiahou Aotian was stunned and accused, "Why didn't you tell me?"

The Qin Dynasty alchemist "Hehe" said, "I thought you could sense it."

Xiahou Aotian's expression stiffened, and he added, "Those who achieve great things do not stick to trifles. I will not always care about the intrigues between minor characters."

"If it were in my prime, your second half of the sentence would have been a way to seek death." The Qin Dynasty alchemist was used to his way of speaking and didn't care. Instead, he said, "You told him about the Heavenly Sacrifice Set?"

Xiahou Aotian nodded, "Didn't you want to know what it is? He has now collected three pieces of the set, only one last piece is left. When he puts together the Heavenly Sacrifice Robe and communicates with Vast Heaven, he will definitely share the information with me, and you can fulfill your wish."

After a pause, he "Ah'ed" and said, "Oh right, Yuanshi Tianzun also told me something related to the First Emperor."

The ancient cultivator became interested, "What is it?"

Xiahou Aotian looked at his phone and said according to the information, "The power of the Five Elements is endless. After people who cultivate the power of the Five Elements die, they will form an inner core. The person who takes the inner core will be seized and recycled."

After he finished speaking, for the first time, he clearly sensed the Qin Dynasty alchemist's turbulent emotions.

The next day, the morning sun rose, hanging redly in the east.

The sunshine of dawn was warm and gentle, shining on people with a lazy and cozy feeling.

The door of the Wuhen Hotel was tightly closed, and a "Closed" sign was hung on the iron doorknob. The sofas and coffee tables in the large room on the east side of the building had been cleared away, and a wide brown long table had replaced the original furniture. People around the table were talking in low voices.

"Last year, there were twenty-two people who came to the hotel to listen to Master's lecture, but this year there are only sixteen people left."

"Yes, what a pity. Zhang Shu returned to The Way of the Extraordinary in April, and Zhang Shu left in July. Alas, maybe next year, some of us here will also return to The Way of the Extraordinary."

"Returning to The Way of the Extraordinary is also a kind of liberation for us. This year, I also found an evil profession with some conscience, but in the end, they all fell into the sea of suffering, and very few were willing to turn back."

"At least there is still fresh blood to replenish. You're talking about 'Loyal ministers choose their lord to slay,' right? I've heard of you. I welcome you to join this big family, but how could you recognize Bei Yue as the boss? Are you trying to kill him?"

"Don't worry, although Bei Yue's temper is like Tianxiaguihuo, his horoscope is much tougher than Tianxiaguihuo. Look at how well he's living."

There was still an hour before the lecture, and everyone was sitting on the side, chatting about their experiences and events of the year. As a newcomer, the little fat man sat at the end of the long table, carefully examining the family members around the table.

Unlike what he had imagined, he originally thought this was a large group, but he didn't expect there to be only sixteen people in District North of Jiu Men, only fifteen people excluding him.

Among these people, there were middle-aged men wearing cheap shirts and glasses, looking honest and simple at a glance.

There were white-haired, dying old men, muscular middle-aged men with fierce faces, young female middle school students wearing washed-out school uniforms, an aunt with a "Guo Yi"-like temperament, and a sexy, glamorous woman. Among them, there were only 2 people at the level 6 Overlord stage, and the rest were all Saints. Among the members who were reduced this year, most of them were Saints in the Extraordinary realm, who were no less powerful than him.

It should be said that he and Kou Beiyue were the bottom of the Saints. He was no longer as arrogant as the boss, and now he sat next to Xiao Yuan, as obedient as a good student.

Before the meeting, Kou Beiyue had once reminded him that although these family members were dedicated to good, they were definitely not good-tempered. If they were annoyed, there would definitely be no danger to life, but they would be beaten violently, such as that middle-aged uncle with a fierce face, whose The Way of the Extraordinary ID was "Head Coach Lin Chong," a level 6 Fog Master, a violent person who would hit people for no reason. Kou Beiyue said that he used to be beaten by this guy often. Of course, Kou Beiyue himself was also brave and pugnacious.

Such a character should have been a resounding hero, but the little fat man had never heard of him.

It is said that this Head Coach introduced himself, that he was a coach in a gym, with a monthly salary of tens of thousands. When he talked about his income, he was beaming, and the family members all showed envious expressions.

What was even more incomprehensible to the little fat man was that the white-haired old man was a teacher. Kou Beiyue said that when he tells you what you can't do, you'd better listen.

"Huh, Xiao Yuan, you dropped a level?" The honest middle-aged man pushed his glasses.

This is a level 6 Spirit Medium. Kou Beiyue quickly said, "Xiao Yuan met Yuanshi Tianzun in a dungeon and had to use a teleportation item to forcibly leave the dungeon. The level drop is a punishment from The Way of the Extraordinary."

Yuanshi Tianzun, everyone here frowned. The little fat man immediately sensed the unpleasant emotions of everyone.

Just as Kou Beiyue said, the people in the team were very protective of their own.

The white-haired old man said, "Is it because of Zhang Shu's matter that you feel you owe him a favor?"

They had heard of Yuanshi Tianzun, a genius figure praised as having the qualifications of a League Master, who was appreciated by Master Wuhen because he agreed with Master's philosophy.

Xiao Yuan mentioned this young man when notifying about Zhang Shu's murder.

The pot aunt with a gloomy expression said coldly, "Why didn't he leave the dungeon?"

"I volunteered." Xiao Yuan glanced at Kou Beiyue without expression.

Head Coach Lin Chong grinned, "You said before that he was also coming to listen to Master's lecture, right? I heard that this guy has been quite jumpy lately. I'd like to have a spar if I get the chance."

Kou Beiyue quickly said, "Brother Chong, I'll go with you."

The little fat man thought to himself that the boss was still too young. At this time, he should say, "You can't beat him."

This is how you can intensify the conflict.

Ever since Yuanshi Tianzun sent a 10 million "betrothal gift," the boss has been jealous ever since.

"After listening to Master's lecture, is it time to distribute the funding? I've taken a fancy to a lot of cosmetics and bags, but my salary is too low to buy them." The charming bank teller played with her exquisite manicured nails.

"I'm going to high school next year, and my tuition and living expenses will increase. My mother's body is not good either." The young female middle school student wearing plain clothes and obviously from a poor family said, "Auntie Xiao Yuan, how much is this year's funding?"

The white-haired old man and other members also cast hopeful glances.

The amount of funding is uncertain, sometimes tens of thousands a year, sometimes thousands, depending entirely on the hotel's operating status.
