After being forced into marriage, the metaphysical master became the darling of the richest family.

Chapter 600

An Jiuxi looked in the direction Yun Qingyu was pointing and her gaze fell on the stone tablet in front of her.

The stone tablet is not very tall, at most two meters.

The entire body is blackened by years of exposure to wind and sun, making its original color unrecognizable.

The top is also covered with a lot of plants.

Seeing this, Shi Yu took the lead and tore the plants off.

After carefully examining the inscription on the stone tablet, it didn't look like any kind of historical script at all.

"Some of them are so blurry, let me wash them for you first."

Shi Yu found a bucket from somewhere, filled it with clear river water, and splashed it onto the stone tablet.

It happened only the instant the water touched the stone tablet.

Then the water dispersed completely.

The only thing that wasn't splashed on the stone tablet!

"Holy crap, this thing even has built-in protection? Then why is it so black if it has built-in protection?"

Shi Yu tossed the bucket aside with disdain.

"It seems this is the only way to look at it." An Jiuxi stepped forward and tentatively reached out to touch the stone tablet in front of her.

After confirming that there were no abnormalities, he then placed his entire hand on the surface.

“These words…” An Jiuxi squinted and carefully examined them, and suddenly a strange, messy book that her master had insisted she memorize flashed through her mind.

Her gaze was fixed on the words on the stone tablet, and she carefully examined them.

It's confirmed that this is the script her master taught her!

"It says there are four more such stone tablets. Four people need to simultaneously turn the mechanisms on the tablets to break the boundary and allow the people inside to come out... The tablets also say that this boundary exists to allow the various families of the Xuanmen sect to overcome difficulties together, thus ensuring the survival of their bloodlines. If anyone refuses to leave with the others, they will suffer a backlash..."

An Jiuxi paused at this point.

The three looked at each other, realizing why there were so many corpses of Xuanmen people here.

After all, there are no absolutely good people in this world.

Some people get into arguments while getting along, even if they can understand the mystery of the stone tablet.

But even then, someone might change their mind at the last minute.

"So, if we find the other three stone tablets, we can get out of here?"

Yun Qingyu's eyes lit up, more delighted that she could finally go out.

If it were before, she might not have been so keen on going out.

After all, there was food and drink available, and they still had some of the food they had stored on them, so they weren't worried about anything else.

But after hearing about the Rejuvenating Grass from An Jiuxi, she had to go out and resolve the matter!

"Yes, but I think it might not be that easy to find. After all, we really don't know how big this place is, and I think... those who have died won't be easy for us to find."

An Jiuxi looked at the restless vengeful spirits surrounding them, and the spiritual energy emanating from her body became even stronger.

That scared those things away.

"Let's go back first." Shi Yu stepped forward and patted the two on the back, taking out his peach wood sword to ward off any unsettling things on their way back.

After tidying up, the three of them left a mark near the stone tablet for easy reference next time before setting off back.

When the three returned to the cabin, they saw Xu Cui coming down with a lot of blood-stained gauze.

"Aunt Xu, how is he?"

An Jiuxi asked anxiously, her hand gripping Xu Cui's sleeve tightening involuntarily.

But worried that going up would disturb the treatment, she could only cast concerned glances upstairs.

"Don't worry, Xixi. Your fiancé was just scratched by something when he came in. There's nothing else wrong with him," Xu Cui patted her hand to comfort her.

Hearing this, An Jiuxi finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"Then I'll wait until you and Uncle are finished dealing with this before I go up to see him."
