Peerless Immortal Son-in-law

"Didn't you go into the cave to look for it?" Ding Yi raised his eyebrows and asked Tieh Wuji.    

    

Hearing Ding Yi's words, Tieh Wuji shook his head helplessly and said with a bitter smile, "Why not. We sent batch after batch of people into the cave, but none of them survived. They all disappeared in the cave."    

    

"Oh? "There's such a thing?" Ding Yi was stunned and a little surprised.    

    

Although Ding Yi said that there was an extraordinary object being pressed inside the Sunset Lake beneath the Sunset Peak, he had never heard of anything strange above the Sunset Peak.    

    

"Until a few years ago, we sent another group of people in. This time, an accident occurred, and someone escaped from the Sunset Peak a few days later!" At this point, Tieh Wuji took a deep breath and his face turned serious. He looked at Ding Yi and continued, "Although that man escaped, his mind became muddled and he became insane!"    

    

"My mouth kept saying that the wall was too thick, and I couldn't open it. There were so many spiders, so I guessed …" Speaking to this, Tieh Wuji was silent for a moment, took a deep breath, and then continued, "I guess there should be a wall below that is too thick, the people I sent out are too weak to open it. Also, there are spiders, so there should be a lot of poisonous bugs in the cave."    

    

"Hence …" Tieh Wuji looked at Ding Yi.    

    

Ding Yi raised his eyebrows and suddenly remembered what Tieh Wuji said at the banquet. He guessed something and asked, "You want me to go down and help you find your Patriarch?"    

    

"That's right!" Tieh Wuji nodded with a serious face, then seemed to be afraid that Ding Yi would not agree, he hurriedly said, "Of course, it's not you who goes down alone, I also contacted a few powerful warriors, at that time, I will also go down with you. As long as you can find our Patriarch, I'm willing to exchange for them at any price!"    

    

"What can you give me?" Hearing that, the corner of Ding Yi's mouth curved into a smile.    

    

Although there was no enmity between him and Tieh Wuji, their relationship was only limited to partners. If he wanted Ding Yi to enter the extremely dangerous cave described by Tieh Wuji, he must have enough benefits, otherwise Ding Yi would not easily take risks, even if Ding Yi did not think that the cave could trap him.    

    

If he, an Aurous Core stage expert, didn't even dare to enter a cave in the Sunset Peak, then that would be too embarrassing for an Aurous Core stage expert. Even if he was an expert in the Primordial Era, he would still be able to traverse the boundless universe.    

    

"This... Since I have all of my Tieh Family, Brother Ding can speak for himself. " Tieh Wuji hesitated for a moment before giving a price that surprised even Ding Yi.    

    

As long as there's something in Tieh Family, you just have to ask and I will agree to it all. Tieh Wuji's price is a bit attractive, one must know that Tieh Family is the top family on the surface, and its value is definitely immeasurable.    

    

Especially since Tieh Family had existed for many years, outsiders would never be able to guess how powerful it was. Only an old monster like Ding Yi would be able to remain calm in front of Tieh Wuji.    

    

Seeing that Ding Yi's expression was still normal and did not have any intention of answering, Tieh Wuji clenched his teeth and continued: "Brother Ding, I see that you are not like a normal person, I do not know what you want, but I think that you do not see anything ordinary, Brother Ding, I have an ancient scroll in my Tieh Family, if you are interested, I will give it to you!"    

    

"The ancient scroll was accidentally acquired by the Patriarch and is considered a treasure. However, ever since the Patriarch went missing, the ancient scroll has always been placed in the Ancestral Hall in my Tieh Family!" With that, Tieh Wuji looked at Ding Yi. This was the most precious thing he could take out.    

    

It wasn't that he knew how precious that ancient scroll was, but Tieh Linglong had once said that he would rather lose all his family's money than lose this ancient scroll. The value of this ancient scroll could no longer be measured by money, it was simply a priceless treasure!    

    

"Oh?" Ding Yi raised his eyebrows and revealed a curious expression.    

    

Listening to what Tieh Wuji said, the Patriarch of Tieh Family, Tieh Linglong, was a strange person. Being able to be treated as a treasure by Tieh Linglong and it was even an ancient scroll, Ding Yi's interest was piqued.    

    

Seeing Ding Yi's curious expression, Tieh Wuji's face lit up. He knew there was hope, so he quickly said: "Brother Ding, please follow me!"    

    

After saying that, Tieh Wuji took the lead and walked out. Seeing that, Ding Yi also followed.    

    

Thinking about it, Wu Tie nodded his head. If there were enough benefits, it wouldn't be impossible for him to go to the cave.    

    

The Tieh Family's ancestral home was right behind the Azure Dragon Manor. When the Tieh Family was first established, it was under this Qing Chengshan's feet, and he even bought the entire Qing Chengshan from the government. It was considered to be the Tieh Family's private territory.    

    

At this moment, Ding Yi followed Tieh Wuji to Tieh Family's ancestral hall. This was a somewhat ancient looking single-story house. The style of the green brick and grey tiles were very retro.    

    

There were guards outside the ancestral hall. When they saw Tieh Wuji, the two guards at the entrance immediately came over. They bowed and said, "Head Supervisor, you're here!"    

    

"Yes, open the door." Tieh Wuji's face returned to its normal dignified look, each of his movements carried a sense of seriousness.    

    

After the two people heard this, they hesitated for a moment. One of them looked at Ding Yi and said with a little difficulty: "Head, the Patriarch has ordered, outsiders are not allowed to enter our Tieh Family Ancestral Hall …"    

    

"The Patriarch is already missing, what other orders do you still care? Hurry up and open them!" Hearing that, Tieh Wuji couldn't help but frown and scold in a low voice.    

    

"This …" The two men looked at each other and gritted their teeth before opening the door. They respectfully said, "Please, Head Steward!"    

    

Tieh Wuji slightly closed his eyes and walked in with Ding Yi.    

    

Upon entering, he saw a row of spirit tablets placed in front of him. There were at least a hundred of them, and a huge censer was placed at the bottom. Incense vapors were slowly wafting out from the censer.    

    

"The 103rd generation of Tieh Family, Tieh Wuji, greets all of the Patriarchs!" Seeing these tablets, Tieh Wuji's expression immediately became serious. He solemnly lit three incense sticks, bowed to the memorial tablet three times, and then threw the three incense sticks into the incense burner.    

    

From start to finish, Ding Yi did not speak and he did not take the initiative to pay his respects to these tablets. Originally, he should have paid them a visit out of politeness, but Ding Yi's identity was extraordinary and he was afraid these tablets would not be able to afford it.    

    

"This is the scroll that the clan leader collected." Tieh Wuji took a deep breath and revealed a determined look. He picked up the black ancient scroll in front of the memorial tablet.
