The Abandoned Young Master of a Wealthy Cultivation Family

Chapter 54: Misty Valley

On the night of leaving Cangyun Villa, Su Bai asked Tang Qiubai to find clues about the lightning-struck wood. He didn't have high hopes at first, but he didn't expect Tang Qiubai to find some clues so quickly.

Su Bai's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he asked, "Mr. Tang, could you elaborate?"

Tang Qiubai considered his words and spoke with a hint of excitement, "This is what happened. Ever since you and Miss Qingyao returned from Cangyun Villa that night, I've been secretly investigating Ji Hao's whereabouts. Just a few days ago, Xie Anqi, the daughter of the Xie family from Hong Kong, suddenly came to Jiangzhou, and Ji Hao inexplicably became her guest of honor. I sent someone to investigate, and wow, it turned out to be quite a big deal. Guess what?"

Su Bai gave him a blank look. Tang Qiubai chuckled awkwardly, not wanting to keep him in suspense any longer. He said mysteriously, "Xie Anqi's coming to Jiangzhou really has a big secret. She's actually heading for the immortal treasure in the Misty Valley of Langya Mountain!"

"During this period, she has been secretly recruiting people, recruiting masters of cultivation, feng shui masters, and martial arts masters. She really thinks that everyone else is a fool!"

"Misty Valley of Langya Mountain?"

Seeing Su Bai's puzzled expression, Tang Qiubai quickly explained, "You should know Baiyun Temple, right? It's said that the abbot of Baiyun Temple obtained a treasure left by an ancient immortal from the Misty Valley, which greatly increased his magical power and made the declining Baiyun Temple a leading sect in Jiangzhou."

"I guess that half of the lightning-struck wood that Ji Hao got was the treasure he got when he accidentally entered the Misty Valley. It's just that it's so secret that he didn't dare to reveal it. This time he was recruited by Xie Anqi, so I infer that Xie Anqi is heading for the Misty Valley of Langya Mountain."

Su Bai's eyes flickered with contemplation upon hearing this. He had never imagined such a hidden place existed on Earth. Could it be that there had once been a civilization cultivating immortals on Earth?

Without thinking any further, Su Bai frowned and said, "How much do you know about this Misty Valley?"

Tang Qiubai smiled awkwardly and said, "I've only heard about these immortal secrets from others, so I don't know much about them!"

"Then can you find out the exact location of this Misty Valley?"

Tang Qiubai gave a bitter laugh and said, "You think too highly of me. How can a mere mortal like me find such a secret immortal place?"

He paused and said, "However, if you are interested, I can introduce you to Miss Xie."

The Xie family of Hong Kong Island, with assets approaching HK$100 billion, is a long-established, wealthy family on the island. Its assets span Malaysia, Brunei, Hong Kong, and Macau, and its recent expansion into mainland China has been rapid. Even giants like Tianshen Biological hold shares in the Xie family, making them even more powerful than the Tang and Zheng families of Jiangnan. Tang Qiubai, despite his dandy ways, still didn't dare to offend such a formidable force.

"Oh?" Su Bai glanced at him with a half-smile, and said with a smile: "Even Young Master Tang is afraid of you. It seems that the Xie family is not simple!"

Tang Qiubai laughed dryly and said, "The Xie family of Hong Kong Island is known as a multi-billionaire family. They are definitely not comparable to my Tang family."

Su Bai smiled without comment and said no more. No matter how powerful the Xie family was, he could defeat a martial arts master with his current strength. How could he care about a secular family?

For the sake of the lightning wood, he must break into this Misty Valley!

Thinking of this, Su Bai no longer hesitated and asked, "Does Mr. Tang know the whereabouts of Miss Xie?"

Tang Qiubai wasn't too surprised and said with a smile, "Xie Anqi is having a private gathering at Yuncang Villa tonight. It seems she wants to use her connections within the circle to recruit some extraordinary people. If you'd like to go, I'm happy to lead the way."

Su Bai said politely to Tang Qiubai, "Then I'll trouble you, Mr. Tang."

Tang Qiubai looked flattered, his smile radiant, "You're welcome, sir."

..............

At the same time, in the Luoyu Hall of Cangyun Villa at the foot of Yuncang Mountain.

This Rainfall Hall is built by the lake. It is constructed entirely of wood and is dark brown in color. It has three floors and a strong ancient flavor. With the embellishment of green trees, lights and waterscape, it is even more charming.

This hall, which is not easily open to the public, is now occupied by a group of young men and women.

Among them, among a group of young men and women, two men and two women sat in the center like stars surrounding the moon. It was obvious that these four people had the highest status among the group.

Among these four people, Su Bai was very familiar with three of them. The one on the far left was Su Cheng, who had just been beaten up by Su Bai. Next to him was Zheng Ronghe, the young master of Cangyun Villa. At this time, Zheng Ronghe was whispering something to a long-haired woman next to him, and chuckled from time to time, as if he had forgotten the shame of being forced to kneel down and apologize by Su Bai that day.

The long-haired woman has a great figure and a pair of long, white legs that make it hard to look away. However, as she sits there, there is a cold and arrogant look in her eyes that makes it difficult to look directly at her. She is none other than the princess of the Tse family of Hong Kong Island, Karen Mok!

On the right side of Karen Mok, Xia Qianyu was dozing off out of boredom, looking bored and sleepy.

Seeing this, Xie Anqi laughed and said, "Qianyu, you're really being disrespectful to me, aren't you? After all, this is the first time I've initiated a gathering in mainland China, right?"

Xia Qianyu curled her lips and said, "Sister Anqi, everyone is here. What exactly did you gather everyone here for? Stop keeping us in suspense!"

Xie Anqi laughed and said, "After such a long time, you are still so quick-witted! Well, since Sister Qianyu has spoken, I won't keep you in suspense!"

Hearing this, everyone present showed interest.

Xie Anqi's expression straightened, she glanced at everyone, and said in a deep voice, "Have you heard of the Misty Valley in Langya Mountain?"

Upon hearing this, some people showed confusion on their faces, while the rest, who had heard of the Misty Valley, became excited. So they were really heading for the Cloud Mist Valley? I just wondered how confident the eldest daughter of the Xie family was in finding the location of the Misty Valley.

Zheng Ronghe's face changed slightly when he heard this, and he said, "Is it the Misty Valley in Langya Mountain in Linzhou?"

Karen Mok smiled and nodded.

Although Su Cheng was a member of the Su family, he had never heard of the name of Misty Valley. He frowned and said, "Mr. Zheng, Ms. Xie, what exactly is this Misty Valley?"

Before Xie Anqi and the others could say anything, Xia Qianyu curled her lips and said, "The Misty Valley of Langya Mountain is a very famous and mysterious immortal place in Jiangnan Province. Countless explorers and hikers have gone deep into Langya Mountain to search for it, but unfortunately, they have never found it. How could you not have heard of it?"

Su Cheng looked embarrassed and was about to speak when Xie Anqi smiled and said, "Young Master Su has been studying in Zhongzhou. He is naturally familiar with these secret rumors in the martial arts world."

Xia Qianyu snorted and said, "I've heard that the Misty Valley is shrouded in fog year-round and is haunted by wild beasts. Instruments malfunction after entering, and countless people have been lost before they even find the entrance. Over the years, at least eight hundred explorers have died in the fog. Sister Anqi, are you confident you can enter the Misty Valley?"

Upon hearing this, Xie Anqi smiled faintly and said confidently, "I wasn't very confident before, but recently I found an expert who has been to the Misty Valley. With him leading the way, there will naturally be no problem."

A strange light flashed in Xia Qianyu's eyes and she stopped talking.

The people around also looked excited and talked in low voices.

Su Cheng, who had been silent the whole time, frowned and smiled, "Since Miss Xie is already confident that she can find the Misty Valley, why did she summon all of us? Could it be that Miss Xie wants to take us in with her?"

Xie Anqi glanced at him and said with a smile, "Young Master Su, you've hit the nail on the head!"

"I'm sure you all know that although this Misty Valley is said to contain immortal relics and natural treasures, it is also full of dangers. I feel that my strength alone is limited, so I would like to invite five friends to join me in conquering the Misty Valley. I wonder if you are interested?"
