My Sexy CEO Wife

Chapter 335 - 332 Blood Red Characters

"Hurry and go in," Jiang Qilong said, evidently impatient. He hastened over and reached out to push the door of the Immortal Palace.

"Be careful, watch out for traps," Gao Fei called out.

"Bang!"

Jiang Qilong's hands pressed against the door, and with a strong push, the door slowly opened: "Eh? It's open? It opened so easily?"

Gao Fei was also surprised.

"Let's go, let's go in," Jiang Qilong rushed in hastily.

Gao Fei quickly followed.

As soon as they entered, both were stunned by the sight before them.

"What is this..." Jiang Qilong twitched the corner of his mouth violently: "What's going on here...?"

"You're asking me? Who should I ask?" Gao Fei sneered.

All they could see were bones, dense and innumerable.

"These are all human bones," Gao Fei said with a furrowed brow, solemnly, "Severed limbs and broken skulls... It looks like there was a great battle here in the past, these people were all killed, and their deaths were extremely tragic."

"There must be at least a thousand people," Jiang Qilong said, trembling his lips.

Gao Fei nodded: "No less, only more."

"I wasn't prepared for this at all," Jiang Qilong said with a mournful face: "I came to find treasures, not to look at bones."

"What were these people? Why did they die here?" Gao Fei was full of questions.

"Let's go further inside; maybe there are treasures in there," Jiang Qilong wanted to leave this place quickly; the sight of the bones on the ground was too disturbing. The longer he looked, the more his heart shivered.

Gao Fei nodded: "Let's go."

The two walked on their tiptoes, trying not to step on the white bones.

"Here's a door," Jiang Qilong volunteered, walking over and pushing, the door opened: "Oh my! Look at all these treasures! We've struck it rich! Completely struck it rich!!!" Jiang Qilong's face turned red with excitement; he was almost beside himself.

Gao Fei was shocked as well: "Are these... all Treasures?"

Behind the door was a hall filled with various Weapons, there were swords, long spears, big hammers, and more.

"Not Treasures! They're Immortal Treasures!" Jiang Qilong shouted like a madman: "Don't forget, this is the Immortal Palace, these Weapons are definitely Immortal Treasures!!!"

"No," Gao Fei suddenly changed his expression: "We're wrong."

"Wrong? What's wrong?"

"What we see is an illusion; these Weapons aren't real."

"Illusion? Are you joking with me? There's no illusion so realistic in the world," Jiang Qilong refused to believe. He quickly stepped forward and reached out to grab a Da Dao: "This Da Dao is mine now, you can't fight me for it."

Gao Fei's mouth twitched slightly: "Don't worry, I won't fight you for it."

"Pfft!"

Jiang Qilong's hand passed through the Da Dao and pressed onto the ground.

"What?" Jiang Qilong was dumbfounded: "What's happening?"

"This is an illusion," Gao Fei said: "You'll definitely not be able to touch it."

"I don't believe it!" Jiang Qilong panicked, he reached out to touch other Weapons, but couldn't touch any of them. These Weapons appeared lifelike, yet whenever he touched them, they turned into shadows: "How can this be? Impossible! How can these Weapons be illusions? Oh god, are you playing with me!!!"

When Jiang Qilong first discovered these Weapons, he was excited to the point of madness, but now... he was crazed with frustration.

"How did you find out?" Jiang Qilong turned to look at Gao Fei: "How did you know it was an illusion?"

"I have good eyesight," Gao Fei said.

"My eyesight isn't bad either, right?" Jiang Qilong said: "Outside, you were able to detect the Invisible Formation, and now you've discovered these Weapons are an illusion; how did you do it? Are you using some secret technique?"

Of course there's a secret technique! I'm using the "Clairvoyance" secret technique! Clairvoyance is Gao Fei's biggest secret, and he definitely can't disclose that to Jiang Qilong, "Alright, stop asking so many questions. Let's hurry up and search for treasures instead."

"You definitely have a secret with you, what a pity you won't tell me," Jiang Qilong pouted.

"Such a master," Gao Fei admired as he looked at the pile of weapons before him, "To be able to create such lifelike illusions, they must be a true master, perhaps even the owner of the Immortal Palace."

"I can't understand what the purpose of creating a bunch of fake weapons is?"

"There must be a reason, we just can't guess what it is."

"Being able to look but not touch is really infuriating."

After they exchanged a few words, they continued to delve deeper.

The Immortal Palace was vast; they walked for a long time and still saw no end in sight.

"There's a golden tower shimmering ahead!"

"It's an illusion."

"...Another illusion?"

"At first glance, treasures are everywhere, but when you touch them, they are all illusions."

"Suddenly I feel like swearing."

"Me too."

"Then let's swear together!"

"Alright!"

"Damn it! Nonsense! It's maddening! What the hell is this! I curse your ancestor's ancestors! Is fooling people fun for you?"

After swearing for a bit, they felt slightly better.

"I have a bad feeling," Jiang Qilong frowned, pouting, his eyes revealing bits of anger, "Everything inside the Immortal Palace... could it all be illusions?"

Gao Fei grimaced, "The likelihood of that... is high."

"Damn it," Jiang Qilong cursed, "If it's all illusions, I'm going to lose my mind."

"Come on," Gao Fei said, clapping Jiang Qilong on the shoulder, "Think positively. As the saying goes, what's meant to be yours will be yours, and if it's not, no amount of striving will make it so. Just let nature take its course."

"I can't see it that way," Jiang Qilong shook his head vigorously.

"Let's go. Who knows, there might be treasures inside," Gao Fei comforted.

"Hopefully," Jiang Qilong sighed deeply.

As they talked, they walked through a long corridor and finally arrived at a large hall.

"There's nothing here," Jiang Qilong said, baring his Snaggletooth, "At least the halls before had some illusions, but this place has nothing, it's completely empty, not even a feather in sight."

"There's something," Gao Fei said, looking straight ahead with a grave expression.

"What's that?" Jiang Qilong followed Gao Fei's gaze and saw two lines of text carved on the wall, large and blood-red. They looked as though they were written with fresh blood.

"Jiang Qilong, do you recognize these characters?" Gao Fei asked.

After looking carefully for a moment, Jiang Qilong shook his head, "They're ancient texts; I don't recognize a single one."

"These characters... must contain some secret... Unfortunately, neither of us knows them," Gao Fei said, regretfully.

"Let's jot down these characters and look them up in ancient texts when we get out," Jiang Qilong suggested, "We should be able to translate them."

"That's the only option left," Gao Fei stepped forward a few paces, "Let's record them together, we must memorize them well."

"I have a very good memory," Jiang Qilong said with a smile, "As long as I look at them once, I can remember them clearly." As he spoke, Jiang Qilong walked towards the wall, "Did you notice that these characters seem to be written with fresh blood?"

Gao Fei nodded, "Yeah, that seems to be the case."
