Chapter 250 - 250 The Hundred Treasures Pavillion

250 The Hundred Treasures Pavillion

The study room was filled with utensils that Qin Huai had never seen before, but he could tell that they were expensive just by smelling them.

“As long as it works.”

Qin Huai looked at the expensive furniture in front of him and felt a little uncomfortable. Any random item would cost hundreds or even thousands of taels. He had never been so extravagant in his previous life.

“How can that be? The family head should act like a family head. Otherwise, if outsiders find out, won’t they laugh at us?” A young man carrying a chair chuckled.

!!

The way he looked at Qin Huai seemed to have the same fanaticism as when Li Shaoxiang looked at him. Of course, compared to Li Shaoxiang’s fanaticism, these people were still much inferior.

When everyone was almost done with their work, only then did Qin Huai sit down on the rocking chair that was emitting the fragrance of peaches. He picked up a piece of ‘ten silver crisp’ that was the size of a thumb and was worth ten taels of silver and threw it into his mouth. The crispy fragrance wantonly filled his mouth, and his body and mind seemed to relax a lot in an instant.

“No wonder those big shots are so passionate about power. This simple temptation of food and environment makes me feel a little smug.”

The next moment, Qin Huai straightened his back.

“Sect Master, the second son of the Zhang family is here.”

Li Zeren quickly walked into the study from the courtyard. Behind him was a robust middle-aged man in gray linen clothes and straw sandals. His eyes were clear, and the aura around him surged faintly.

It was an expert at the third-level bone pattern realm.

“Disciple Zhang You greets Sect Master!” Zhang You immediately knelt on one knee and bowed to Qin Huai.

Qin Huai nodded. After exchanging a few simple greetings, Zhang You officially accepted his position as the head of the Zhang family and ruled over the entire family.

As for his true thoughts, it was not important for the time being. Qin Huai only needed him to stabilize the Zhang family. As his strength gradually increased, he believed that even if the Zhang family had any ideas, they would disappear.

After that, Qin Huai met with many bone pattern realm experts from the Li family.

Li Zeren had also compiled a list of the Zhang and Li families’ experts above the ninth-level blood refinement realm and some detailed information. He was even so detailed that there were more than a hundred of them since they were young. Qin Huai now had a clearer understanding of how powerful the Nine Dragons sect was.

“In the battle at the meeting hall, the sect lost one fourth-level bone pattern realm, two third-level bone pattern realm, four second-level bone pattern realm, thirteen first-level bone pattern realm, and fifty eighth or ninth refinement martial artists.”

Li Zeren sat across from Qin Huai and told him the details of the battle. Most of them were from the Zhang family, especially those in the bone pattern realm. The eighth refinement and ninth refinement martial artists would split it equally.

“After this battle, half of the sect’s bone pattern realm and top-tier blood refinement experts have been eliminated. It’s a huge blow to our vitality.”

Qin Huai looked at the documents in his hands and sighed.

“The county governor’s mansion and the Twin Extreme sect both have three martial artists at the fourth-level bone pattern realm guarding them… The Nine Dragons sect was already short of one person. Now that Zhang Wu is dead, the balance between the three forces has been broken,” Li Zeren continued.

“The coming period will be the most difficult for the Nine Dragons sect. The majority of Song Ya’s army is still being held back by the Balance Army, but the Sacred Heart sect is at its strongest now. Once they know about the current situation at the Nine Dragons sect, they will definitely attack us.

“Although our people tried their best to keep a low profile, paper can’t keep fire.” Li Zeren sighed. “Especially since the traitor of the Zhang family, Zhang Can, had a high status in September Hook. He must still be in contact with the Zhang family. This kind of thing can’t be hidden for long.”

Qin Huai frowned slightly. “It seems like I really have to seize the time to raise the individual combat strength of the sect’s disciples.”

It was definitely impossible to recover the number in a short period of time. However, to improve the quality, Qin Huai still had a few ideas.

“Right, Sect Master. The Nine Dragons sect’s sect master can open the secret chamber of the Nine Dragons sect with the sect master token. There are treasures of the Nine Dragons sect inside,” Li Zeren added.

“Father-in-law, please lead the way for me.” Qin Huai stood up and gestured for Li Zeren to come in.

The two of them walked side by side to the Hundred Treasures Pavilion.

“Sect Master, do you have any insights when you look at the Hundred Treasures Pavilion now?” Li Zeren kept her in suspense.

Qin Huai fixed his gaze on the Hundred Treasures Pavilion. It seemed that… This Hundred Treasures Pavilion actually had the aura of a white dragon!

“This Hundred Treasures Pavilion is also a treasured weapon?” Qin Huai was surprised.

“No.” Li Zeren smiled and led Qin Huai into the Hundred Treasures Pavilion.

“Hello, Sect Master! Greetings, Patriarch!”

“Hello, Sect Master! Greetings, Patriarch!”

The surrounding disciples were in fear.

Qin Huai merely nodded in acknowledgment. He had already gotten used to the reverence of the people around him along the way.

The two of them walked to the room in the corner of the Hundred Treasures Pavilion.

The room was empty except for a dragon-shaped cage oil lamp that was worshiped in the direction of the door, which Li Zeren gently pushed.

Boom…

The oil lamp immediately fell. Then, a rectangular groove appeared. It was exactly the same shape as the sect master token in Qin Huai’s hand.

Qin Huai didn’t hesitate and placed the sect master token into it. It fit perfectly.

Boom…

The entire wall began to shake.

A huge crack appeared in the center of the wall, and a pitch-black world came into view. The neat stone steps extended all the way to the depths, perhaps twenty meters or forty meters.

Qin Huai took the lead and followed Li Zeren down. Every step they took, on both sides of the long steps, there would be white flames that lit up, looking especially terrifying.

After some time, Qin Huai could vaguely see a blinding white light at the end of his vision.
