55: Chapter 55

Chapter 55

It was pitch black in front of my eyes. After my body heavily landed on the ground, the pain that penetrated my bone marrow made me unable to move for a moment, so I could only continuously suck in cold air. 2

The surroundings were still pitch-black. I couldn't reach out and point to the other side. I did n' t see anyone. I tried to stretch out my muscles and bones. Fortunately, I could move my limbs, so I didn't break my bones.

"Xiao Tao, Xiao Tao, where are you?" This was Daddy's voice." Answer Daddy if you' re alright!"

"Dad, I'm here, Dad!" I hurriedly used my four limbs to crawl towards the direction of the voice. I couldn't see anything now, so it was most important to find my father first.

"Don't move!" "You better be honest!" An ice-cold dagger suddenly stuck to my neck. The cold air penetrated my bones and I immediately did not dare to move.

Then, a hand groped around my neck and pulled out the Phoenix Feather chain. It was so rude that the chain was wrapped around my neck that I almost broke my breath.

"What is that? It's not even a piece of jade." It seemed like it was a disappointment. He let go of his Phoenix Feather and this move made me feel more at ease. It turned out that this guy didn't know what to do. He landed on my shoulder and almost pulled me up as easily as he was carrying a chicken.

"Xiao Tao, what's wrong with Xiao Tao?" Did something happen to you? Dad hadn't seen me for a long time, and his voice became panicked.

"Daddy, I——" I just wanted to respond to Daddy. The dagger on my neck was pressed down, causing a sharp pain in my neck. It must have been cut.

"I told you to be honest. It's not your turn to talk here. Shut up!" He no longer deliberately lowered his voice. Actually, I had only come out a long time ago. He was Godfather Hai, but I never expected Godfather Hai to do anything to my father and me.

"Master Hai, I know it's you. "Father and I have only seen you for the first time today. There's no relationship between us, so let me go. I' ll definitely thank you in the future."

I summoned up the courage to speak. My uncontented legs were trembling. After all, the real knife was pressed against my neck.

"Cut the crap. You and I have nothing to say. Whether you live or die depends on whether your father listens or not."

Master Hai used a dagger to press down on my throat while his other hand grabbed my arm so that I could act as a human shield for him.

Godfather Hai took me for a few steps. I could feel the uneven ground beneath my feet, but I couldn't lower my head. It was hard to walk. I could only cry in my heart for help. If that damned man could appear in time to save my life!

However, the ideal was very plump, but the reality was very bone-like. The stinky man's netherworld didn' t even have a shadow. I was still firmly held by Master Hai. He seemed to be able to move freely in the darkness like a cat, carrying me for an unknown distance.

The sound of a mechanism being activated came from behind me. As the light gradually entered my field of vision, I was once again surprised to find that I was in another secret room. This secret room was located under the Tao Family ancestral hall.

"Xiao Tao!" My father's cry brought me back to my senses. I saw his father slowly walking over from the other side of the secret room. His face was exceptionally pale and his expression was grim. He held his arm in one hand as if he had been injured during the fall.

"Hai, are you crazy? "Let go of my daughter, or I'll be rude to you!" My father was furious when he saw Grandpa Hai using a dagger to threaten my safety. He had always loved me the most. When he was young, he would be flustered even if I accidentally scratched my skin.

"Tao Ming Hui, you don't have to pretend anymore. You know what I want!" Master Hai sneered," This time, you and this girl came back to the ancestral hall not because of the heirloom left behind by that old Tao Family! "As long as you give it to me, I'll let your daughter live. Otherwise, I' ll take her life. Tao Ming Hui, your daughter's life depends on you!"

What story? I was confused. Could it be that Tao Family wasn't just Phoenix Feather but something I did n' t know about? Why didn't my father tell me?

"I don't know anything about the rumors. I brought my daughter back this time, but I wanted to find out if my daughter was the one my ancestor had identified. As the descendant of the Divine General of the Four Directions, Tao Family will definitely allow the descendants of the demons to appear in this world!"

It was the first time I had ever heard his father speak so forcefully since he was young. It was so hard that I felt unfamiliar with him.

"I'm not in the mood to talk nonsense with you. Your daughter is dying." Grandpa Hai didn't believe his father's words at all." I've seen the ancestral hall in your old Tao Family for more than fifty years. What do you think I do n' t know? "Stop talking nonsense!"

Grandpa Hai's dagger went a little deeper into my neck. It hurt so much that I grimaced in pain. Hai, you' re really vicious!

"Wait!" When Dad saw the blood flowing out of my neck, he stomped his feet anxiously, but there was nothing he could do. In the end, he gritted his teeth and said," Hai, since you know all about our Tao Family, you should know about this altar!"

At the altar, my neck could not move. I could only scan the underground space from left to right in my field of vision. I could barely see that we were in an octagonal stone room. In the middle of the room was a stone platform. I couldn't see any doors, and there were many lines carved in the ground, as if they were some kind of pattern.

"Of course I know. This is the altar that your Four Divine Generals used to summon your clan's divine artifacts." Grandpa Hai's attitude was full of confidence." I' ve been a bull and a horse in your Tao Family for so many years. If I can't figure out what's going on, it wouldn't be a waste of years of hard work. "Speak, is the Divine Armament of the Western Divine General inside this altar?"

"I really don't know." Dad took a deep breath and continued," I'm not the son of the first wife of my family, and my family is not an elder of my family. However, Tao Family later on, there were indeed few people. Otherwise, my grandfather would n' t have had the chance to bring me to the ancestral hall to pay respects to my ancestors, so I only knew that Tao Family had such a divine artifact, but I didn't know where it was!"

"Nonsense!" You're talking nonsense! "Believe it or not, I'll kill your daughter right away!" Grandpa Hai's sudden fury startled me. I suddenly saw his hand shaking uncontrollably!

This was a good chance to escape! I didn't have time to think too much. I grabbed Godfather Hai's hand in front of me and fiercely bit him on his wrist. I took advantage of the time when he felt so much pain that I gave him a hard push and ran away!

Godfather Hai wasn't young, but his movements were much more flexible than the young man's. I only ran a dozen steps before I could hear him chasing after me!
