"Lord Xie, this old servant heard that Xitian Commandery's Clan Secret Treasury contains not only all manner of rare treasures accumulated by the Xie Family through the generations, but also enshrines the Undying Battle Soul of the Xie Family's first ancestor!" Supporting Earl Xitian, who had lost his spiritual power, Zhao Zhong spoke as they moved forward.
Earl Xitian's body jerked as if he had been struck by lightning. Trembling, he pointed at Zhao Zhong and cursed, "You old slave, how do you even know that?"
Zhao Zhong chuckled. "Earl Xitian may not know this, but a ruined man like this old servant most enjoys prying into secrets! So, Lord Xie, don't think of fooling us by casually bringing out some treasure vault and passing it off as the Clan Secret Treasury!"
"This old servant would not dare offend your Xie Family ancestor's Undying Battle Soul." As he spoke, Zhao Zhong winked at Ye Zhen. "I imagine that if Captain Ye does not see the divine tablet enshrining the Xie Family's Undying Battle Soul, he will not hand over the antidote, will he?"
Ye Zhen's expression abruptly turned cold. "Lord Xie, to be honest, what I fear most is being fooled. If I discover that you have fooled me, I will destroy every antidote in my possession! By then, even if I want to save you, preparing a new antidote will take ten days to half a month!"
Earl Xitian shuddered violently. He glared hatefully at Zhao Zhong and Ye Zhen, remained silent where he stood for a long while, then, with extreme reluctance, led Ye Zhen and Zhao Zhong in another direction.
Their Xie Family's Clan Secret Treasury was of paramount importance. To guard against powerful enemies scheming against them, they had built a false vault as a backup.
