Translator: 549690339

The moment the words left his mouth, a cold aura enveloped the entire space around the table.

Jiang Xiaobai felt his whole body turn icy cold.

Thump, thump.

Subconsciously, he swallowed repeatedly, cold sweat coating his forehead and back.

“Damn, I said the wrong thing!”

The Third Elder glared at Jiang Xiaobai furiously, his face black and his eyebrows furrowed tightly.

“How do you know about him?”

Jiang Xiaobai, unable to handle the terrifying pressure of the Third Elder, confessed honestly.

Of course, he only divulged how he knew about Ao Cangtian, claiming that it was out of curiosity.

He couldn’t reveal anything about Ao Cangtian’s intentions until he thoroughly investigated the situation.

Otherwise, he would undoubtedly be beaten to death.

With his eyes narrowed, the Third Elder seemed to be lost in thoughts of the distant past, his expression constantly changing.

A mix of anger, sadness, and desolation.

In just a moment, the Third Elder regained his sour expression.

“You don’t need to know about him, and don’t ask me again. Otherwise, I’ll break your legs and make you a cripple,” he glared at Jiang Xiaobai.

Jiang Xiaobai could only wince and retreat to his place.

The feeling he had just now was indeed unbearable, almost suffocating him. “See, I told you, no one in Dragon Valley will tell you about him. Do you understand that?”

Ao Cheng had a knowing smirk on his face. “Especially that man, you must never mention him in front of the Third Elder.’

“If he didn’t find you agreeable and it was any other disciple instead, they’d have been hanged and beaten to death.”

Jiang Xiaobai felt chills running down his spine. “Why can’t I mention him around the Third Elder?”

“How can you, who’s usually clever, be this slow at a crucial moment?”

Ao Cheng replied irritably, seemingly not keen on explaining any further.

However, it seemed like he was pretty bad at keeping secrets. Barely seconds passed before he couldn’t resist spilling the beans.

After a cautious look around, Ao Cheng leaned over to Jiang Xiaobai, his face full of intrigue. “When I was just over a decade old, I didn’t know much. But I do know this: Ao Cangtian and the Third Elder are blood brothers!”

Buzz!

Jiang Xiaobai’s mind thudded.

Good grief, this was explosive news!

They’re actually blood brothers?

With this revelation, Jiang Xiaobai understood why the Third Elder reacted so intensely.

If his own blood brother betrayed their clan, he’d likely react in the same manner.

“Actually, the Third Elder Ao Minghai and Ao Cangtian were the peak geniuses of the Dragon Valley in the past!”

Ao Cheng raised an eyebrow at Jiang Xiaobai. “However, because of that incident, the Third Elder fell from grace. Rumour has it that when they captured Ao Cangtian, the two brothers fought a deadly battle that shook the heavens and the earth!”

As Ao Cheng gradually revealed his knowledge, Jiang Xiaobai began to understand the situation.

The Third Elder found out about Ao Cangtian’s betrayal, filled with rage, he apprehended Ao Cangtian and they ensued in a great battle.

At the end of the battle, the Third Elder defeated Ao Cangtian but suffered severe, incurable injuries.

His capabilities dramatically diminished and his standing in Dragon Valley fell drastically as a result of Ao Cangtian’s betrayal.

Once a revered Third Elder, he was now regarded as a sloppy old man.

Ever since then, the Third Elder stopped handling Dragon Valley matters, spending his days sitting in his courtyard, drinking, his temperament souring.

“So, in that case, I should count myself lucky that I wasn’t smacked to death just now?” Jiang Xiaobai contemplated.

“No shit, do you want to bet that if I had spoken instead, I’d end up with a beating?

Ao Cheng responded irritably. “Enough, don’t keep asking about this. Even I can’t handle the situation in Dragon Valley. As an outsider, it would be miracle if you’re not killed.”

Jiang Xiaobai nodded, understanding Ao Cheng’s point.

That is, inside Dragon Valley, there were still many who were keeping watch on Ao Cangtian.

If Jiang Xiaobai continued probing, the consequences would be troublesome.

If things got out of hand, even Ao Yan might not be able to protect him.

“Sheesh, what puzzles me is why you’re so interested in that guy. He’s a criminal in Dragon Valley, kneeling before our ancestors for an entire lifetime would not be considered excessive.”

Ao Cheng said sarcastically, “You’re not actually thinking of causing a rift, are “My sister would be the first one to beat you to death if that happens.” Jiang Xiaobai rolled his eyes. “Do you think I’m that kind of person?” “Ha, you totally are!”

“You’re the darkest-hearted person I’ve ever met in my life, bar none.” Ao Cheng sneered.

Jiang Xiaobai ignored him, sitting in his spot and brooding over his drink.

In his heart, it felt like someone was incessantly tickling him with a piece of grass.

This feeling was incredibly unfair. The more he felt this way, the more he was determined to continue his investigation.

He was extremely curious about the secrets within.

The banquet, which lasted for two full hours, finally came to a conclusion.

Jiang Xiaobai was about to go back for a rest, but the Martial Sea Immortal Venerable wanted a private chat with Ao Yan, so he had no choice but to look for Ao Cheng.

Unexpectedly, while passing a small grove, he caught sight of the Tenth Elder sneaking around suspiciously.

This immediately set off alarm bells in Jiang Xiaobai’s mind.

He was aware that this man was connected to the ancient tribes!

Immediately, he invisibly followed him like a mosquito.

They moved through a dense forest, and soon, they came upon a cave.

Around the cave was an enormous hidden array. It was only when the Tenth Elder activated his disk array could Jiang Xiaobai sense the array.

Just as quickly as it appeared, it vanished since the Tenth Elder had already entered.

Jiang Xiaobai froze.

There were such secret places in Dragon Valley?

If it was some forbidden area, he wouldn’t be so curious. But seeing the Tenth Elder acting so suspicious, he knew something was amiss.

Jiang Xiaobai hid himself outside. After half an hour, the Tenth Elder finally walked out.

He maintained his sneaky demeanor, looking around warily as he paced, as though he feared being noticed by others.

However, Jiang Xiaobai quickly noticed, the Tenth Elder’s demeanor had changed from before.

He seemed excited!

“What’s going on, visiting a cave and coming out so excited?”

“Could it be some sort of a hidden tryst?”

“That doesn’t make sense. As one of the Elders in Dragon Valley, why would you need a hidden tryst? It’s not like you need to hide from a tigress of a wife.” Baffled, Jiang Xiaobai prepared to follow, but then Ao Zhantian appeared!

As soon as Ao Zhantian appeared, the Tenth Elder approached him.

“How did it go? What does the ancestor say?” asked Ao Zhantian.

“The ancestor says to proceed with the plan. However, Ao Yan must not come to harm,” the Tenth Elder replied..
