One Qi Chaoyang

Chapter 349 350: Infiltration

It was pitch black here, but there was some light emerging from the darkness, which was the glow of some gems.

There were chairs inlaid with gems, jade walls trimmed with gold, corals emitting faint light, as well as silver lamps, wine jugs, gold utensils, etc. Zhao Fuyun just glanced at them and finally his eyes fell on the woman.

The female figure was lying on a recliner, half hidden in the darkness. Because there was no light in the room and Zhao Fuyun couldn't use his golden eyes to see her, he couldn't see her clearly. He just felt that her breath had merged with the darkness.

He believed that it would be difficult to hide from her perception in this castle of immortality.

But when he was about to arrive here, his mother's heart was stolen.

Is it just a coincidence?
Is the heart-stealer's escape technique so advanced?

"Please leave." Gong Yu said again, his eyes showing coldness, as if he was ready to take action at any time.

Zhao Fuyun said, "I am not comfortable here. I don't want to stay any longer. But there is one thing I don't understand. I hope the mayor can give me some advice."

The woman lay there without answering, looking like a person who had lost her soul.

Gong Yu just looked at him coldly and did not continue to chase Zhao Fuyun away. Zhao Fuyun did not hear what the mayor said, so he continued, "How did the mayor know that I am here to take the heart that Dang Yun Yiqing left here?"

"Why, the heart has been here for so many years without any problems, but it was stolen as soon as I arrived?"

After Zhao Fuyun finished speaking, Gong Yu was still looking at Zhao Fuyun, and the woman was not sure what she was thinking. After a long while, she suddenly said, "You look a lot like Yun Yihong. If you want to know why she was fine for so many years but was lost as soon as you came, then you have to ask Yun Yiqing or yourself. That person was not stolen from me, but cheated away."

"After I found out, I asked Xiao Yu to chase him, but he caught up with you and took the box from you."

The woman’s words made Zhao Fuyun feel incredible. He looked at the woman lying in the rocking chair in the dark, a little bit unbelieving.

"With the ability of the mayor, how could he be deceived?" Zhao Fuyun asked.

"Anyone can be cheated. Even someone as smart as Yun Yiqing, who claims to have every plan in mind, can't he be cheated?" The woman answered indifferently, as if she didn't care much.

Zhao Fuyun didn't know what she meant by her aunt being cheated, but she couldn't help but say, "You lost the heart that someone else had left with you. You have to give an explanation, right?"

"Then what do you want me to do? It's already lost, and I can't give you my life as compensation." The woman's indifferent attitude made Zhao Fuyun feel uncomfortable.

"Does the mayor know who stole the box?" Zhao Fuyun asked.

"Xiao Yu said it was a long-haired heretic. As for her origins, you'd better contact Yun Yiqing. Maybe she will know." said the woman.

Zhao Fuyun thought of the long-haired man who had thrown the box to him, and said, "As far as I know, the contents of the box are gone, but the restrictions on the box were intact before it was opened. Moreover, I just saw the key. You gave each other the box, but not the key?"

"Yun Yiqing said that whoever comes to take the heart in the future won't need the key at all. As you saw, the other party did not need the key to take the heart away. If you don't have any other questions, just leave. If you go find that person now, maybe you can get it back. If you are not sure if you can do it alone, I will let Xiao Yu help you." The woman spoke slowly again. Zhao Fuyun could already sense that she was a little impatient.

"Could it be that there was nothing in the box before that person stole it?" Zhao Fuyun asked slowly.

"You mean to say that I embezzled money, right?" The woman's voice changed slightly.

The coldness in Gong Yu's eyes grew even stronger, but Zhao Fuyun did not answer, which seemed to be a tacit agreement.

"If it was Yun Yiqing who asked me, I would of course answer, but since you asked me, I can pretend that I didn't hear you. Go away and don't come again. If you offend me again, I will let you sleep forever in this Changsheng Castle until Yun Yiqing comes back to take it."

Zhao Fuyun was sitting on the recliner, and from what she said, it was clear that she was very afraid of her aunt. He took a deep breath, and looked up at the sky, where he found eight holes, and vaguely saw clouds and mist entwined inside.

He suppressed the anger in his heart.

"Then please give me that box." Zhao Fuyun said.

The woman did not say anything, and Gong Yu came to the darkness on the side, where there was a stone table with a box on it. It was the one that Gong Yu had taken from Zhao Fuyun before.

After Zhao Fuyun took it, he opened it and took a look, then closed it again. He then looked at the woman again and found that she was still motionless.

He didn't say anything else, just bowed slightly and turned to leave.

This time, Gong Yu followed behind Zhao Fuyun.

Zhao Fuyun walked with big strides, golden light flashing in his eyes, looking at the cloud pattern restriction in a passage. In his eyes, the void of this passage seemed to be filled with fog, and the fog was sticky.

Close your eyes, calm your mind, and the feeling will disappear immediately.

Gong Yu, who was walking behind him, suddenly felt that the whole passage had changed. He felt that the restriction in the passage had been triggered. He was surprised. He had walked through it so many times and nothing like this had happened. But Zhao Fuyun had only walked through it once and something like this happened. Fortunately, the sticky feeling disappeared quickly.

Zhao Fuyun walked out of the Changsheng Castle and looked back. Gong Yu was standing at the door and did not come out.

Zhao Fuyun ignored him and walked outside. In Gong Yu's eyes, Zhao Fuyun's figure quickly faded in the gloomy sky and then disappeared.

He turned into an alley, took out the box in his hand, and looked at the box carefully.

There was a cloud-patterned restriction on the box, a restriction that was both familiar and unfamiliar to him.

It can be seen that the person who made the restriction on this box has very superb skills. The box is integrated as a whole, the restriction is airtight, and it is entangled to a point and finally forms a lock. Therefore, only by opening the lock normally can the box be opened intact.

The mayor said that his aunt had said that the person who came to take the box did not need a key, which meant that the understanding of the cloud pattern restriction inherited from one's own heritage could unlock the restriction on the box.

So, does the person who stole the box have this ability?
Zhao Fuyun was not sure, but now he wanted to confirm some things.

He stretched out his hand and drew the earth-like aura from the void, sketched it into cloud patterns, and dropped it onto the box to form a restriction, imprisoning the entire box.

After putting it away, he turned around and headed towards the Changsheng Castle again.

His figure moved slowly and lightly towards the top of the Changsheng Castle, and he entered the Changsheng Castle through the hole above.

The hole on his Changsheng Castle was not big, but Zhao Fuyun's figure was immersed in it. What he saw with his eyes was a cloud of mist, which was the cloud ban.

However, Zhao Fuyun's body disappeared into nothingness, and he just twisted his body slightly and passed through the cloud.

He followed the hole all the way down and returned to the place he had just entered.

Looking down from above, the woman was still lying on the recliner with her eyes closed, as if she was sleeping.
