Chapter 752 - Tables Were Turned While Entering The Tomb

Chapter 752: Tables Were Turned While Entering The Tomb
Ni Feng sounded like she was being considerate on the surface.
After all, her tone of speaking was very gentle.
Everyone would have thought that she was sensible, kind, and full of integrity.
In hindsight, her response did not only save Ni Biao from a sticky situation, but it also toned down Helian Wei Wei’s victory in this round. She was also pointing out that it did not really matter anyway since it was not the final result.
Helian Wei Wei had never met Ni Feng from this life, but she knew the Ni Feng from her previous life very well. She was the type who would let others be the bad guy while she added fuel to the fire behind them.
Compared to Ni Hu, she could not stand his sister more.


Reincarnation of Phoenix Girl?
Helian Wei Wei chuckled. It was not true and she definitely did not live up to that.
However, people were ignorant and they tended to believe their eyes more than anything else.
Therefore, they all followed suit and nodded to whatever Ni Feng said.

Lady Ni is right. Let’s get going into the royal tomb. Our ultimate goal is to obtain the Sarira, getting here is just the first step. Who knows what kind of danger we’ll encounter in there? It’s better for us to enter before it’s too dark and try to get out before dawn.

Ni Feng was pleased to hear the voice of a supporter. She looked over to the person and gave a smile, once again winning over the exorcists’ hearts.
Helian Wei Wei pursed her lips, and she replied with a faint tone,
Lady Ni, the ones who are making things complicated are Old Master Ni and your brother but you’re always pointing fingers to others. It’s puzzling.

Ni Feng’s fingers paused and she clenched her fist upon hearing that but she regained her composure very quickly. She cleared her throat and responded,
This whole thing is just a misunderstanding. Perhaps you’ve taken my brother too seriously, and that’s how it got here. Will you accept my apology if I apologize on his behalf?

Of course, she had no intention to make a sincere apology, anyone who listened close enough could tell. She was insisting that Helian Wei Wei took the whole situation too close to heart. It was all just a misunderstanding and it made the Ni family members sounded like they were innocent all along.
However, Helian Wei Wei would seem to be the petty one if she refused to accept her apology.


Ni Feng was well aware of Helian Wei Wei’s character from the beginning and she knew that she would definitely refute, which was why she chose to be submissive in her response.
Her words would make it appear as if the Ni family was not the one who was being oppressive, but the person standing in front of her.
However, out of Ni Feng’s expectation, Helian Wei Wei smirked as she looked at Ni Feng straight in the eyes as if she could see through all her thoughts. She replied coolly,
Alright, go on and apologize then.

Ni Feng was stunned for a moment before clenching her fists once again with her eyes squinted. She absolutely did not expect that Helian Wei Wei would agree so casually! She never really wanted to apologize in the first place and she was only prepared to say things that would make the crowd dislike Helian Wei Wei when she took the bait.
The tables were turned.
It felt like her prey did not even notice the bait that she placed carefully, let alone to fall into the trap.
Although an apology was nothing but just words to her, to be put down like that had made her feel very uncomfortable.
However, Ni Feng was never one to show her emotions regardless of what she felt inside. Maintaining her composure and clearing her throat again, she said with a gentle tone with hints of coughing,
I apologize.

Zhuge Yun’s jaw dropped as he watched everything unfolded.
He had never seen anyone who could make a Ni family member apologize in front of so many people. Apparently, Helian Wei Wei just proved that she was the only one who could and she did it all by herself!


Aside from Zhuge Yun, all the other exorcists were also looking at Helian Wei Wei with a slight yet obvious admiration.
It was a pity that Young Master Xiao and his troops were not there yet. They would definitely cling onto Helian Wei Wei and worship her if they saw what happened.
They were the only group of people that had seen what she was truly capable of.
Up until now, apart from Zhuge Yun, no one else knew the story of Helian Wei Wei and the blood-sucking bats.
Of course, everyone would be shaken for a long while once they learned about it.
Meanwhile, the Ni father and son knew nothing of the matter and they were still fantasizing about how Helian Wei Wei would kneel and beg for their mercy in the royal tomb!
That was the reason why they wanted to get into the graveyard as quickly as possible.
No matter how great those guys were at debating, they were merely average exorcists. The Ni family would be within their familiar territory once they entered the tomb. Those three arrogant pricks should start thinking about their low lives!
Ni Hu grew calmer as he thought to himself. Even though the image of him kneeling down and apologizing kept popping up in his mind and it felt like a big slap from the crowd to him, he had to suppress those thoughts, at least for now.
He could only get back at them when he got calmer!



It’s time,
said one of the exorcists.
It’s past midday. Even if there are other groups arriving, they should be considered eliminated. We shouldn’t wait any longer. Let’s enter the tomb.

The exorcists who were sitting relaxed were now completely alert again!
After all, entering the tomb was no joke. Unknown dangers would be faced once they entered.
They might be exorcists, but they still experienced fear.
It was due to the fact that it was an ancient tomb and it was filled with things that they had yet to understand.
The exorcists even looked for an old man from Mount White to lead the way.
He was a local, born and bred there. Therefore, he knew every nook and cranny of this place.
Though he would not want to enter the graveyard if he had the choice.
If it was not for the hefty reward, it would have been difficult to persuade him to enter the royal tomb.
He used to be in a military troop whose task was to obtain valuable items from graves for the imperial government during the previous ruling.


The exorcists might have the power to expel demons, but hunting for treasures was not their forte, hence they needed this old man to enter the tomb with them.
The Ni family had more than two individuals with these experiences in their group which increased their chances of winning tremendously while reducing the possibilities of them facing dangers in the graveyard.
However, these tomb raiders were not all-powerful especially those who worked for the imperial government as they tended to play by the rules than those who robbed graves for their personal gain.
For instance, they were not allowed to touch any gold when the cock crows, or they had to light up a candle on the southeast corner of the coffin.
They had to get out of there once the candle was burned out.
Rumors had it that this was a deal made between the living and the dead.
Ni Biao did not bother about any of these. All he wanted was to obtain the Sarira, regardless of the cost. In the meantime, he would let that sharp-tongued prick learn what it was like to feel sorry!
They will know who the boss is once they have entered the tomb!
