253: C253 Secret Adventure

C253 Secret Adventure

The Changyue Yan family was once one of the most famous families within the Changyue City, occupying a corner of the Changyue City for several hundred years.

Eating and playing, was one of the four most important matters for the citizens. Grasping onto one of them was equivalent to seizing the economic lifeline of Changyue City.

Most of the big and small restaurants in the Changyue City were owned by the Yan Clan, and the biggest and most famous of the industries under the clan's banner was the renowned "Grand Moon Restaurant".

For the past hundred years, the Yan Clan could be said to be one of the top clans in the entire Changyue City. As the daughter of the current Yan family's head, Yan Bai, Yan Hwa had been carefully nurtured and raised as the pearl of her palm. Yan Hwa thought this happy life would continue forever, with her parents loving her so much and her clothes without any worries.

Until ten years ago, when Yan Bai suddenly died of an emergency, Yan Hwa's normally amiable second uncle immediately revealed his sharp fangs, stripping away the Yan Clan's power. With the fall of the main house, the people who had been fawning on her all this while immediately disappeared. Only a few loyal servants remained by her side. At that time, Yan Hwa was only a child that wasn't even ten years old. She could only stay in the Yan Clan with her newly born sister like a duckweed.

"My little sister is currently only ten years old … "My second uncle colluded with Gong Wenfeng, threatening my sister if I don't obey their orders …" Tears rolled down Yan Hwa's resolute eyes. For the past ten years, she had been struggling to hold on for her sister. She wanted to reach a certain position in the military region and be on par with the cunning and treacherous Second Uncle.

It could be said that her sister was Yan Hwa's spiritual pillar. Now that someone was threatening her sister, even if Yan Hwa was unwilling, in the end, she silently gave in.

"Sorry, Captain Liao, if we didn't ask for help in time, you wouldn't have been framed like this by Gong Wenfeng." Yan Hwa looked ashamed.

Liao Xiaoduo did not expect Gong Wenfeng to be so shameless as to threaten a little girl. It seemed like he had long since planned for the communication to fail and for everyone to stand alone.

"Yan Hwa, this is all Gong Wenfeng's fault, don't blame it on yourself. Gong Wenfeng, this despicable and shameless person, actually dared to call us thieves, slandering us as deserters! " Liao Xiaoduo's entire body trembled in anger when he thought of the monkey that was killed. He wanted nothing more than to tear Gong Wenfeng into a thousand pieces.

"Yan Hwa, do you know where you can go? I must expose Gong Wenfeng's true colors at the celebratory feast! "

Yan Hwa nodded.

"My father once told me that there is a secret passage to the Grand Moon Hotel. "Come with me." Yan Hwa entered the secret chamber again and took out a crystal necklace from her neck.

Liao Xiaoduo only saw Yan Hwa fumble around in the dark before she inserted the crystal into a depression in the wall.

Boom — —

A black path appeared at the dead end in front of him.

Yan Hwa took out a fluorescent crystal and injected a bit of her spiritual power into it. The crystal immediately lit up the small path like a burning torch.

"Let's go, Captain Liao. I'll lead you out."

Liao Xiaoduo couldn't help but be surprised by this ingenious mechanism.

"Yan Hwa, there's no need to be so courteous. You can just call me Little Yuan."

Yan Hwa smiled a little. For some reason, she was the most relaxed when she was with Liao Xiaoduo.

Liao Xiaoduo and Yan Hwa walked into the secret passage. The passageway here must have been built hundreds of years ago. There were candlesticks two or three meters away from each other. They were covered in dust, and there were even spider webs in the corners. The walls of the passageway were filled with carvings of dragons and phoenixes.

"This is a secret tunnel created by my first ancestor. He wanted to leave some of my Yan Clan's blood and bones behind in times of crisis."

Noticing Liao Xiaoduo's puzzled and surprised expression, Yan Hwa explained patiently, "Only the Leader knows about this secret passage. After my dad passed away, only I knew about it."

Liao Xiaoduo nodded, this secret passage had a weird smell inside and out. Liao Xiaoduo felt that there was something inside that was disturbing his heart.

The secret passageway built in the ancient era naturally had a lot of things kept from the past. Could it be that he was overthinking it?

Liao Xiaoduo's mind froze. His eyes looked like he was in a daze, but in reality, he had used the Fiery Eyes of Truth. The thick and solid wall in his eyes was immediately broken down into bricks one after another!

Liao Xiaoduo looked around every corner, and suddenly there was an empty room at the end of the secret passageway! Inside, there was only a table covered in dust. On the table, there was a memorial tablet, and in front of the memorial tablet, there was a sandalwood box. It was unknown what was placed there.

This room was surrounded by walls and had no windows or doors. Could it be that some sort of mechanism had to be triggered to enter?

Liao Xiaoduo put away his Fiery Eyes of Truth and asked casually, "Do you have something here?"

Yan Hwa shook her head and gave a negative answer, "The only secret passage that my father told me was this one. At that time, I was still young and could not remember anything else."0

Liao Xiaoduo walked forward, counted the distance and tapped the wall with his finger.

At first, the sound was dull, but when Liao Xiaoduo touched a brick, it became clear.

"Listen, the walls here seem to be hollow."

Yan Hwa was greatly astonished. She had never noticed this secret passage, nor did she realize that the walls of this area were hollow!

She stepped forward and pressed her ear against the wall. With a snap of her fingers, a crisp sound quickly reached her ears.

"It really is empty!"

Yan Hwa used her fingers to feel the patterns on the wall. Suddenly, she found another depression in the wall.

This shape seemed to match the crystal necklace on his neck.

Yan Hwa removed the necklace from her neck, pointed the reverse side of the necklace at the depression, and pressed lightly on it. As if magnetized, the crystal blended into the wall with a whoosh.

As expected, this crystal was actually able to be inserted inside!

Yan Hwa and Liao Xiaoduo had waited for a long time, but the wall did not move at all.

What was going on? Could it not be this crystal?

"This crystal necklace was given to me by my father on my tenth birthday." Yan Hwa touched the sparkling and translucent crystal stones on the wall and asked with both nostalgia and suspicion.

After all, there was nothing on her body that could be connected to this secret passage. According to common sense, this wall should have already been opened.

Liao Xiaoduo was also very puzzled. He thought for a while and reminded, "Do you guys still have any inherited martial arts or secret manuals? Or is it something that only the Yan Clan have? "
