Chapter 498: Chapter 466, I Thought You Were Going to Kill Me!_2
Upon hearing this, Yongwang ‘swooshed’ to his feet and walked to the stele, ready to turn it.
Daohua hurriedly stopped him, “Could there be someone behind the stone tomb?”
Yongwang shook his head, “No one is guarding it.” With that, he pushed with both hands and turned the stele slightly. Immediately, the stone tomb opened.
Watching Yongwang swiftly enter the stone tomb, Daohua quickly followed.
Inside the stone tomb, the first thing that met the eye was two stone sarcophagi; then Yongwang was seen searching along the stone wall, following which a stone door opened, revealing a winding passage leading downwards.
The further in along the passage they went, the wider it became, and soon they were in a spacious stone cave.
...
The cave was filled with iron ore that piled up like little mountains. Upon entering, Daohua felt the temperature in the air soar.
The stone cave connected to several passages, in a few of which Daohua could see the blazing firelight.
At this moment, intense shouts of battle and the clang of weapons came from one of the passageways ablaze with firelight.
Upon hearing this, Yongwang charged into it without hesitation.
Daohua failed to stop him and could only chase after him. As she approached the passage, the strong smell of blood hit her nose, and her heart suddenly skipped a beat. Could it be that those people had already started fighting?
The passage was smeared with blood, and several bodies lay on the ground, some in black clothing, some shirtless villagers.
At the end of the passage, another stone cave connected, and the sounds of battle were coming from there. Daohua quickened her pace but didn’t chase after Yongwang who had already run into the stone cave.
When she got close to the end of the passage, seeing the bloody scene inside the stone cave, Daohua couldn’t help but close her eyes. After a few seconds, holding her breath, she opened them again and fired sleeping pills into the cave with her slingshot.
She didn’t target the men in black; she shot in every direction in the stone cave.
The exploded sleeping powder, catalyzed by the flames, evaporated even faster, and in a short while, the cave was filled with the scent of the medicine.
The cave was relatively enclosed, and very quickly, everyone who was fighting had collapsed to the ground.
Just as Daohua breathed a sigh of relief, she saw several men in black supporting each other as they ran into another passage. Thinking of the other exit they had mentioned previously, she hesitated for a moment, then followed suit.
The men in black knew her identity; she couldn’t let this information get out.
If the King learned that he had lost this armory because of her, the Yan Family would become the target of the King’s retaliation in the future.
Daohua cautiously followed them, and upon reaching the next stone cave, she carefully observed from the entrance, making sure no one was there before entering.
However, what greeted her was a flash of sword light.
Luckily, Daohua was quick to react, leaning back and swiftly twisting aside, narrowly avoiding the sword. However, her right arm was still slashed.
Daohua didn’t care about the wound on her arm; she rolled on the ground a few times and, before steadying herself, threw a handful of pills in the direction of the incoming sword.
“Hold your breath!”
A voice laced with anger and roughness rose.
Hearing this, Daohua threw another handful of pills in the direction of the voice.
This time, what she threw was not just sleeping pills but also Soft Muscle Powder, which would bring a person down upon contact.
Indeed, by the time her body hit the stone wall and stopped, there were consecutive sounds of bodies hitting the ground.
