Chapter 199 Underground Stone Chamber

Chapter 199 Underground Stone Chamber
As night falls, the sky gradually darkens, as if covered by a huge piece of black silk. Stars begin to twinkle in the sky, like countless diamonds inlaid in the deep night sky. The moonlight sprinkles on the earth, covering the world with a mysterious veil.

Two figures in black stood under a high wall, discussing something with their heads down.

"There are nearly twenty guards on this high wall. It seems unlikely to sneak in without being noticed." Shu Yue said.

"How difficult is that? Just kill them all!" Xiao Yan said indifferently.

"That's easy for you to say. Unless we kill them all at once, we will definitely be discovered." Shu Yue rolled her eyes and said.

“Although the method is a bit cruel, it is just right for dealing with these people.” Xiao Yan walked to the wall and touched the cold wall with his hand. Instantly, more than a dozen tiny black flames shot out from his palm. These flames kept climbing on the wall like vines and soon climbed to the top of the wall.

Shu Yue looked at the black flames that seemed to merge into the night. For some reason, the black flames made her tremble inexplicably. This was her body's instinctive reaction, wanting her to stay away from the black flames.

Xiao Yan controlled the black flames and approached the leader on the wall step by step. When the flames touched the leader, his face instantly became dry and wrinkled, making him look very scary.

These guards didn't even have time to say a word before they turned into a pile of dry bones.

"Okay! We can go up now!" After Xiao Yan dealt with all the guards, he said to Shu Yue beside him.

Seeing how Xiao Yan easily dealt with more than a dozen guards, Shu Yue became more and more impressed with the young man in front of her.

The two of them leaped into the Mo family's courtyard.

"What should we do now?" Shu Yue asked after stepping into the huge courtyard.

“Let’s search separately! Meet up in an hour. If we are discovered, just shout them out. Then we can directly destroy the Mo family and save a lot of effort.” Xiao Yan said with a faint smile.

Hearing this, Shu Yue rolled her eyes. Is this human language? Going to someone's house to investigate is fine, but they also have to pray that they are not discovered, otherwise they will be wiped out.

"It seems that the Mo family is really in trouble this time." Shu Yue thought to herself and randomly chose a direction to explore.

When Xiao Yan saw Shu Yue leaving, he went to investigate in the opposite direction.

However, an hour later, when the two met again, neither of them found anything unusual about the Mo family.

"I checked all the rooms carefully, but didn't find any laboratory like you mentioned! Did I make a mistake?" Shu Yue whispered.

"Mistaken? No way! If it was so easy for us to find out, the Mohist School would have been destroyed by some righteous people long ago." Xiao Yan said disdainfully.

"Then where do you think their experiment will be conducted?" Shu Yue asked with a frown.

"It's far away in the sky, yet so close at hand!" Xiao Yan said with a smile, looking at the huge lake in front of him.

"You mean the laboratory is under this lake?" Shu Yue looked at Xiao Yan in disbelief.

"I'll go down and take a look first, you wait up there!" Xiao Yan walked to the lake and dived directly down.

"Wait! I'll go down with you!" Shu Yue saw Xiao Yan going down and followed him into the lake.

Seeing this, Xiao Yan did not stop her, but let Shu Yue follow him down. The two of them walked one after the other and soon reached the bottom of the lake. It was pitch black at the bottom of the lake, and nothing could be seen.

He took out a few moonstones from the ring and gave two of them to Shu Yue.

The two of them took the moonstone and carefully explored the bottom of the lake, but after searching for a long time, they did not find anything unusual except some weeds.

"Are you overthinking it? The Mo family is a real charitable family. Those people just use the Mo family as a cover to make you afraid?" Shu Yue frowned and said. "It's possible, but the possibility is very small. Alas! It's a pity that I'm not a wood or earth element, and I don't understand the mechanism, otherwise it would be easy to find it." Xiao Yan explored the bottom of the lake for a long time, but still found nothing, and he couldn't help feeling a little depressed.

"You said there is a mechanism at the bottom of the lake?" Shu Yue suddenly spoke up, with a hint of doubt in her tone.

"Of course, there must be a mechanism! Otherwise, how could they survive underwater? There must be a cave or a door or something like that, we just haven't discovered it yet!" Xiao Yan said as a matter of course.

"Follow me!" Shu Yue suddenly remembered something and called Xiao Yan to follow her.

Xiao Yan followed Shu Yue to a rockery at the bottom of the lake.

Suddenly, Shu Yue's hand touched a hard stone slab, and she motioned Xiao Yan to come closer.

After a slight vibration, the rockery suddenly began to move and made a squeaking sound. Then, a hole appeared under the rockery, which was guarded by an invisible barrier to prevent the lake water from flowing back into it.

"It's really hidden." Xiao Yan said with a smile, looking at the cave entrance below.

"Let's go down!" Shu Yue looked at the cave entrance below with a complicated expression, but soon regained her composure.

Xiao Yan and Shu Yue jumped into the cave one after the other.

After entering the cave, what comes into view is a passage with many moonstones embedded on both sides of the passage, illuminating the entire passage as bright as day.

The two walked along the passage and came to a huge stone chamber.

After entering the stone chamber, what comes into view is a row of neatly arranged transparent cylindrical glass covers. Each cover is filled with an unknown liquid, and various magical beast organs are soaked in the liquid.

"Is this what you call a charitable home?" Xiao Yan looked at the stone chamber with a gloomy gaze.

Xiao Yan stepped on the ground with his right foot, and black and white flames spread instantly. In an instant, all the glass covers in the stone chamber were burned to ashes.

Shu Yue watched everything in front of her silently, and said nothing, because she really didn't expect that a Mohist sect that claimed to be charitable would actually do such shameful things behind the scenes.

After Xiao Yan burned all the glass covers in the stone chamber to ashes, he continued walking along the passage towards the next stone chamber.

Shu Yue saw Xiao Yan go to the next stone chamber, and followed Xiao Yan down.

When the two walked into the second stone chamber, they were stunned by the scene before them.

I saw that this stone chamber was also filled with neatly arranged glass covers, but the glass covers contained people.

But it is not quite accurate to say that they are people, because the people here are different from normal people.

Some of them have lions' heads, some have leopards' bodies, and some have tigers' tails.

What's worse, some people were left with only half of their body, lying not horizontally but vertically, with all their internal organs clearly visible.

There was a strange expression on these people's faces. They looked like they were smiling, but their smile was full of fear.

"Ugh!" Shu Yue couldn't help but vomit after seeing such a disgusting scene.
