Imperial City Ruins, opportunities refreshed daily

Chapter 31 Nether Cult

While Xu Hao was waiting for dark, the entire area outside the palace was not peaceful.

Because a high-ranking eunuch died and the evil strongmen and secret passages of the Hehuan Sect were discovered in the palace's villa, the Ninth Princess Xuan Qingxiao was furious.

So the Pacification Office began to thoroughly investigate the situation in the villas outside the imperial palace.

In Villa No. 59, the two were like ants on a hot pan, with anxious expressions on their faces.

One of them was dressed in eunuch's attire, the other in a palace maid's robe. They looked at each other, and the palace maid spoke anxiously, "What should we do? The Pacification Division is about to find us!"

The young eunuch's eyes were uncertain.

He was an undercover agent sent to the palace by the Netherworld Cult. Last time, when the White Lotus Cult invaded, he took the opportunity to cause chaos and stole a precious sealing stone from the Imperial Household Department, which resulted in the change of guard in the Pacification Office.

The connections that were previously established cannot be used anymore.

By now, he had finally bribed the palace maids and was finally able to use some tunnels under the palace to send the treasures out. Who knew that the incident of the Hehuan Sect would happen and the secret passage would be exposed.

What's even more difficult is that we now have to face a thorough investigation by the Pacification Office.

Once discovered, not only will the money be confiscated, but he will also be implicated.

Damn.

Isn’t it said that the current Daxuan Dynasty is a mess, with leaks everywhere?

How come I finally got the treasure, but before I could even check what was inside, it was wiped out?

"This thing must not be lost!" The young eunuch looked struggling.

The Imperial Household Department has many treasures, and the seal stone in front of him is inherited from ancient times and is placed in a place of great importance by the Imperial Household Department. It is one of the best treasures he can get his hands on.

Once sent back to the Netherworld Sect, he will receive great merit and rewards.

"How about we open it, maybe we can use the things inside?" The beautiful palace maid saw that the young eunuch was silent for a long time and made a direct suggestion.

The young eunuch glanced at it coldly and said, "This is a seal stone, passed down from ancient times. It's so old, who knows if the things inside are still there? We can't afford to gamble!"

The palace maid anxiously asked, "What should we do? The Pacification Bureau will be here soon to investigate. How can we clear our suspicion of the seal stone appearing in this villa?"

"Well, you hide it. As long as the seal stone is not destroyed, it won't reveal any other auras. When the storm has died down, we'll send it out!" The young eunuch pondered for a moment and stared at the palace maid.

"This thing concerns our future, so don't open it without permission. Even if you find a treasure, the seal stone's skin can't hide the treasure's aura.

If no treasure is found, not only will there be losses, but the sealing stone skin will also be difficult to deal with!"

"Don't worry, I'm not that stupid!" The maid snorted and said bluntly, "You should leave quickly, otherwise if the Pacification Bureau really investigates, it will be difficult for both you and me to escape suspicion!"

"Then I'm leaving. You better hide it well and make sure it doesn't get lost. It's the foundation of our development in the Netherworld Sect!" The young eunuch reminded him again and again.

"I understand!" The palace maid waved her hand.

After the young eunuch left, the palace maid picked up the fist-sized seal stone and looked it up and down, resisting the urge to break it.

Just as the young eunuch said, the seal stone was inherited from ancient times and has been around for too long. It is very likely that the essence of the treasure inside has been completely lost.

If you open it randomly and find nothing, you will lose a lot.

Too much gambling nature.

The palace maid looked carefully, but she had no idea what was sealed inside the seal stone. Then she ignored it, picked up the seal stone and went to a park in a corner of the courtyard.

The palace maid carefully looked around and made sure that there was no one around before burying it in the ground.

This place is so small that no one would find it unless they were palace maids who cleaned the other courtyard like her. Moreover, she buried it very deep, and the sealing stone would not reveal any breath. Unless it was a specific person, no trace of the sealing stone could be found.

It's basically foolproof.

After the maid was sure everything was in order, she picked up the broom and pretended to start cleaning the courtyard. After waiting for an incense stick of time, the inspectors from the Pacification Office arrived and began to explore the entire courtyard, asking the maids about their recent cleaning of the courtyard and whether they had spotted anyone suspicious.

The beautiful palace maids answered all the questions fluently.

Time just passes quietly.

At night, the beautiful palace maid put down the broom in her hand, glanced in the direction of the seal stone, and then closed the door.

She first glanced with a smile at the powerful men from the Pacification Office standing around her, then she swayed her powerful body and left the villa area.

"Go in and search carefully!" After the palace maid left, the strong man from the Pacification Division entered the villa again and began searching.

This is necessary because no corner will be left untouched.

Otherwise, if the Hehuan Sect infiltrates again, their entire Zhenfu Division will be in trouble.

The sky darkened completely. After the Pacification Division searched in vain, they closed the gate again and handed the patrol task over to the palace guards.

At this moment, Xu Hao was like a wild horse that had broken free from its reins. He began to patrol and wander within the scope of his authority.

Xu Hao strolled forward, chatting with the surrounding guards and guard flags from time to time.

It was late at night before Xu Hao came to a remote area and opened the chance divination panel.

Xu Hao didn't hesitate at all and directly clicked to refresh the chance divination.

【Daily Chance Fortune Telling! 】

[Because of the Hehuan Sect's exposure, the entire perimeter of the Imperial Palace was inspected by the Pacification Division, putting many factions on pins and needles and exposing a lot of information!]

Xu Hao calmly looked at the brief introduction information presented by Chance Divination, and he immediately showed an expectant look.

Because from this we can see that when the Pacification Office was dispatched, it was like catching rabbits by catching grass, exposing some hidden things.

Perhaps, this time I can harvest different treasures.

Xu Hao quickly looked at the virtual panel.

At this moment, the signing positions have been revealed one by one.

[The worst fortune, go to Villa No. 72, you can get an earth-level opportunity.

However, this is a sting operation by the Pacification Division, so choose carefully.

[Bad fortune. Report the maid cleaning Villa No. 59 as an undercover agent of the Netherworld Cult. You will receive rewards and merits from the Pacification Office.

However, good fortune often brings disaster. On the second day after the report was made, the entire Xu family was wiped out! A terrible disaster.

[Winning the lottery, peaceful duty, after a night, the wind and the sea are calm. Everything is stable, no worries, peaceful. ]

[Excellent fortune. Go to Villa No. 59 before midnight. You'll find a Ground-level opportunity in the garden's basement in the southeast corner. Very auspicious.]

Two bad numbers, one medium number, and one very good number representing stable returns.

When Xu Hao saw the signing information, his face was filled with joy and excitement.

This shows that one can steadily obtain an earth-level opportunity.

Xu Hao did not move his eyes immediately, but checked the specific signing information one by one as usual.
