“In this half a year… Shen Tu Nantian’s injuries should be healed. He would most likely appear at this expedition to the mystic realm. His intentions on Xintong were never pure. Coupled with the Shen Tu family clan understanding the Great Empress mystic realm being better than ours, if they were to make any arrangements before hand… ”
Elder Tianzhu did not speak further. He did not dare to imagine the consequences.
“The situation of the juniors is actually better. To protect her successor, the ancient Great Empress should have set up several restrictions. As for us old folks, we would be in a more dangerous situation. The Great Empress’ protection for us will be so little that its pathetic!”
The ancient Great Empress’ intention was to pick a successor. As for those old folks like them, who entered to search for treasures, why would the Great Empress care about their lives?
The Great Empress may have left treasures for them probably on a whim. After all, some of the treasures could not be used by her future successor and it might not be particularly valuable in her eyes. Hence, she had conveniently left them behind for the people of the future.
Those who had the means to get the treasure would get it. If they could not get it or ended up dying for the treasure, they only had themselves to blame.
“This move of the Shen Tu family clan sure is malevolent!” Elder Huowen said angrily. “The juniors have to be very careful. As for us old folks, we can probably only enter the protective outer perimeter of the Great Empress mystic realm. We can’t proceed any deeper as it would be too risky. Then, it will almost certainly be fated that old folks like us would return empty-handed!”
“We have gone through so much effort and have been embroiled with the Shen Tu family clan for so long only to end in this result. Compared to the other family clans, we have received no advantage at all. It could be said to be a disadvantage!”
“There’s no other way… ” Elder Tianzhu shook his head, “If we had not been embroiled with the Shen Tu family clan, and not force the Shen Tu family clan to make the information available, it would still be a mystic realm solely controlled by the Shen Tu family clan. We would not have gotten a single chance. But now, we finally have that tiny bit of hope… With the wolf, Shen Tu Nantian, inside this mystic realm, I can’t feel at ease.”
“Let’s ask Xintong and see what her decision is… ”
Elder Huowen may say so, but in fact, he had already guessed Lin Xintong’s answer. With her personality, she would only have one answer
