Chapter 45 The Royal Family Changes Surname
Ji Nanhong stood on the stone platform and tried to jump. She no longer felt any pain in her foot bones.

The dual cultivation method was indeed magical. In just a few hours, her broken bones had healed completely, which was more effective than those expensive medicines.

"Let's go." Ji Nanhong said as he jumped up, his body soaring more than ten meters into the air and grabbed the bone chain hanging from above.

Her eyes were fixed on the shadow on the stone wall, and so was Chen Guan. After a while, seeing that the shadow had no reaction, they both breathed a sigh of relief.

Ji Nanhong tied the rope to the bone chain and threw the other end to Chen Guan.

Chen Guan grabbed the rope and followed Ji Nanhong up the bone chain. He looked at Yingzi from time to time, and when he saw that he had no reaction, he was completely relieved.

The two climbed up along the bone chain. When they were halfway up, the font lit up again. Chen Guan lowered his head and took another look. This look immediately made his scalp tingle.

"The shadow is gone." Chen Guan stopped and said to Ji Nanhong above.

Upon hearing this, Ji Nanhong immediately entered combat mode. He lowered his head to look at the stone wall and found that the shadow on the stone wall had disappeared.

The two of them looked around quickly, but they looked everywhere they could see and still couldn't find any trace of the shadow.

"Let's go." Chen Guan gritted his teeth and asked Ji Nanhong to continue climbing.

It was too late to do anything now. The two men climbed up desperately, their hearts filled with fear, fearing that the shadow would emerge from the darkness and take their lives.

The two were terrified, but until they climbed along the bone chain to a stone platform only a few dozen meters away from the crack, they still did not see any movement from the shadow.

The two men climbed onto the stone platform and did not dare to delay. They continued to climb up the cliff until they climbed out of the crack in the ground. Only then did they breathe a sigh of relief.

There were no more corpses around, nor were there any signs of the elite team or Qin Ziyu and the others.

It's been almost ten hours, it's normal for them to leave.

"Let's go back to the base first." After leaving the crevice, Ji Nanhong's temperament became less gentle and more powerful.

When leaving, Chen Guan glanced at the crack in the ground, but still did not see any shadow appear.

"What a pity for the corpse of the Shita King and the secret treasure." Chen Guan felt a little regretful, but he didn't dare to cause any more trouble to pull up the corpse of the Shita King.

The dual cultivation technique is indeed magical. After only a few hours of dual cultivation, Chen Guan was able to advance to level 7, and his strength has improved a lot.

This was Chen Guan’s first time at the base, but the situation there made him feel something was wrong.

The old man said that there were only dozens of people in the base before, and quite a few more were teleported in a few days ago. But now there is not a single person in the base, only some empty wooden houses and tents.

Chen Guan looked at Ji Nanhong and saw that she was frowning. It was obvious that she was also wondering what was going on.

Just as she was wondering, a woman came out of a wooden house. Seeing Ji Nanhong, she was startled at first, then overjoyed and ran over quickly: "Captain, you are not dead? They said you died in the cemetery. I knew that woman was talking nonsense."

"What woman? Where are the others?" Ji Nanhong's frown deepened. "That woman's name is Wang Lian, a newcomer. She said you, the captain, died in the cemetery. And yet everyone on our team defended her. It's infuriating." The woman recounted the entire incident.

The more Chen Guan listened, the more he felt something was wrong. He was surprised that Wang Lian did not die in the cemetery.

Unexpectedly, Gongsun Zhuo was not dead. Together with Qin Ziyu, they came to the elite team’s base, recruited the elite team, and took the elite team to kill other peerless secret spirits.

What surprised Chen Guan even more was that the mastermind behind all this was actually Wang Lian, and Qin Ziyu was actually willing to be inferior to Wang Lian.

It has only been about ten hours since Chen Guan and the others fell into the crevice. Wang Lian and his elite team have actually killed three peerless secret spirits and are now heading towards the last peerless secret spirit, the statue of the Mahakala Demon.

Except for some injured people who were recuperating at the base, everyone else followed Wang Lian and the others.

"That woman Wang Lian actually has a backup plan." Chen Guan didn't trust Wang Lian before, but he didn't expect her methods to be so powerful.

A person like Qin Ziyu could actually be used by Wang Lian under such circumstances. Even Chen Guan had to admire such means.

"It seems that the order of killing the peerless secret spirits that Wang Lian mentioned before is not true. It is even possible that there is no order at all." Chen Guan had discovered this problem when he was in the underground space.

If you just want to obtain the "Afang Sutra", you don't even need to kill those peerless secret spirits.

The "Afang Sutra" was created by the Emperor for Afang. This should just be a trial ground prepared for Afang, so how could it be so harsh?

After listening to this, Ji Nanhong sneered: "Wang Lian, it seems that someone from the Wang family is here."

"The Wang family of Tianqiu?" Chen Guan had asked Wang Lian before, but she did not admit that she was from the Wang family of Tianqiu.

"The Tianqiu Wang Family is actually just a general name. There are too many branches of the Wang family. The Tianqiu Wang Family cannot represent all the Wang families."

Seeing Chen Guan's confusion, Ji Nanhong explained, "The surname Wang came from the descendants of the royal families of those destroyed nations. Not to mention before the Emperor unified the world, many royal families of the six nations changed their surnames to Wang after that. The Tianqiu Wang family is just one of them, and it's just more famous."

"In addition to the Tianqiu Wang family, many other people with the surname Wang have joined together to form an underground organization, secretly trying to overthrow the Emperor's rule, but they have never been able to do so. It was not until the Emperor entered the Sky Secret Realm that this organization gradually came to the surface."

"It's a pity that even without the Emperor, they still couldn't become the new ruler. That organization was also suppressed by the New Ancestral Court and the Ten Heavenly Kings. Until now, they have been unable to show their true colors and can only stir up trouble in secret."

Ji Nanhong seemed to be very disdainful of the Wang family's organization: "Let's go and see what extraordinary abilities Wang Lian of the Wang family has."

Chen Guan thought to himself, "Women are always tough on their words. You've been on the island for a year and haven't been able to kill even one peerless secret spirit. And Wang Lian killed three in less than ten hours. She must be more capable than you."

Chen Guan thought so, but didn't dare say it out loud. He knew in his heart that Wang Lian knew more information than Ji Nanhong, so it was not surprising that he could do this.

"Wang Lian has an elite team under her command and has killed three peerless secret spirits. She must have gained a lot of benefits. Now it may not be so easy to deal with her."
