C1090 A Shocking Secret
After dealing with the hidden dangers of the Desert Storm, Xuan Yu led the group towards the inner area.
They walked into the main hall from the courtyard. There were two reclining chairs in the main hall, which were where Liu Yunzhi and the other members of the gang would sit during their daily discussion.
Although many people took the initiative to stand out, Xuan Yu did not let the rest of them go. He believed that there must be Liu Yunzhi's confidantes among the remaining people. As for those who didn't have a good relationship with Liu Yunzhi, they wanted to be freed as soon as possible. Naturally, he would point out those trusted subordinates.
However, the interrogation didn't require Xuan Yu to do it, so it was rare for Xuan Yu to have a chance. He and Yang Xuan sat on two reclining chairs in the main hall. Because Xingyun was currently in a soul state, it was not convenient for him to reveal himself. Thus, he would usually either stay in the Spirit Tower or attach himself to Yang Xuan's body.
Xuan Yu looked at the empty hall in a daze. When the Martial Xuan Pavilion was just established, there had always been six chairs here. Even when the Martial Pavilion had no choice but to move out, there were still six chairs here. But now, those six brothers who had been talking about heaven and earth back then... Only two people were left, making him feel a bit touched for a moment.
Yang Xuan saw the disappointment on Xuan Yu's face. He already knew that this was the former residence of the Martial Xuan Pavilion. He had also guessed some of the reasons, so he didn't disturb Xuan Yu.
However, not long after, those disciples who escorted the survivors of the desert storm came back from the dungeon. Xuan Yu had no choice but to recover from his deep thoughts.
He looked at the people from the Xuan Martial Pavilion standing in front of him, but was surprised to find that these people's faces were pale. Some of them had even turned ashen. He hurriedly asked, "Brothers, what happened to you?"
One of them opened his mouth and was about to speak, but he couldn't hold it in anymore. He spat it out. A pungent smell instantly spread out, and the others standing behind him received this stimulation. They also vomited out one after another.
Xuan Yu frowned. Although it was rude of these people to behave like this in front of him, Xuan Yu knew their character. If it wasn't for the fact that they had encountered some kind of trouble, they wouldn't behave like this.
After everyone had vomited, Xuan Yu waved his hand. He used the Water Controlling Technique to wash away the dirt on the ground, then used the Spiritual Force to dry all the water on the ground. However, the air was still filled with a pungent smell. However, Yang Xuan also felt that this smell was somewhat unpleasant. He released the Li Flame and burned it in the air for a while. That smell just got a little lighter.
Only then did those few people recover. They knew what they had done just now. They hurriedly said to Xuan Yu, "Sixth Elder, I'm sorry. I didn't do it on purpose. It's just that the things in the dungeon are too much..."
When that person said this, his face turned even paler. Although his stomach was clean, it was obvious that he was going to vomit again.
Xuan Yu's expression changed slightly. He looked at the crowd and said, "What exactly is in the dungeon?"
"Elder, you can go down and take a look. We really don't want to say it out loud. I'm afraid I'll be rude in front of you again." The first person who threw up hesitated for a moment and said to Xuan Yu.
Immediately after that, the others also said to Xuan Yu, "However, elder, I suggest that you seal your mouth and nose with the Spiritual Force before you go down."
Xuan Yu nodded his head and patted their shoulders, "Alright, I'll go down now and take a look. Quickly find a place and take your time."
"Right, Sixth Elder. Because the cellar was not a place for people to stay, we decided to put those people in our secret training room. Let our brothers watch. " Everyone nodded their heads, and one of them finished explaining to Xuan Yu. He hurriedly ran outside.
Xuan Yu saw that everyone had left, then he stood up and walked towards the direction of the dungeon.
The Martial Pavilion's dungeon was built in the backyard, and there was a tunnel there. On the other side of the tunnel was a huge cellar. Actually, this place wasn't considered a dungeon, although a part of it was used to imprison people who went against the Xuan Martial Pavilion. But there's a part of it that's used to store things.
Therefore, there were quite a number of people who knew about this dungeon in the Xuan Martial Pavilion.
However, when Xuan Yu recalled the time when he escorted the Desert Storm to the dungeon, he realized that those people didn't seem to know about the existence of this dungeon. Now that he thought about it, Xuan Yu immediately became suspicious.
The entrance to the dungeon was blocked by a metal door, although many years had passed. However, the metal door was still intact. But now, the top of the door was covered by a layer of soil. If he didn't dig the soil open, he wouldn't know about this iron door.
Seeing this scene, Xuan Yu was even more certain that Liu Yunzhi must have done something unspeakable underground.
Yang Xuan followed behind Xuan Yu, frowning as he looked at the iron door, deep in thought. Xuan Yu stretched out his hand and pulled up the iron door of the dungeon. After taking a look at Yang Xuan, he took the lead and walked in.
However, just as the two of them took about ten steps down the stairs, an extremely pungent smell drifted up from below. That kind of smell was indescribable, but no matter how strong one's mental strength was, it didn't matter. After smelling this smell, one would have the urge to vomit.
The two of them hurriedly exited the tunnel and breathed in the fresh air outside. They used the Spiritual Force to seal their mouths and noses before going back down. This time, they did not smell the stench anymore. However, what made the two of them not know whether to laugh or cry was that the smell was not as simple as the pungent smell. It was even somewhat stinging to the eyes. Helpless, the two of them could only wrap themselves within the Spiritual Force. Only then did they feel a little better.
The tunnel was pitch black. Although Xuan Yu remembered that there was still a spirit stone lamp in the tunnel, it was broken now. Yang Xuan condensed a flame at the tip of his finger and lit up the surroundings.
The ground was a little sticky. Even with their strength, they wouldn't be able to lift it if they didn't use a bit of force when lifting their feet.
However, Xuan Yu only frowned and didn't say anything. The two continued to walk down carefully.
The stairs weren't very long, but the surroundings were very quiet. Thus, the two of them felt that time passed very slowly. There was no sound in the tunnel. The two of them could clearly hear themselves lifting their feet. When the soles of their shoes were separated from the ground, there would be a slight sound. This sound was the biggest sound in the tunnel.2
Just like that, after walking for an unknown amount of time, the two of them finally reached the end of the tunnel.
At the end of the tunnel was a fork in the road, and on both sides were two wooden doors. The iron chains on them were already rusty. This was the place used to lock people up in the past. Right in front of them was a huge space. It was the place used to store all kinds of things in the past.
Xuan Yu turned his head to look at Yang Xuan, then carefully walked forward. But when he saw the scene in the cellar, his face instantly turned pale.
