Rise of the Great Emperor Chapter 71: Emperor's Inheritance

Chapter 71: Emperor’s Inheritance

Bai Xin watched as Xu Qin walked away then turned to look at her master. She was confused as to why her master would want to help someone like Xu Qin. In her opinion, it was beneath them to help someone with such low status.

Xu Qin was only slightly better. There were many others who had the same talent as her out there. Yun Liu Sect obviously didn't lack in any outer disciple like that.

"Master, why do you help her?"

"Hmmm?"

"It's not worth it."

Liu Gang smiled. "Maybe, maybe not. Besides, I need to bring some people from the trip to show Master because they want fresh blood for the sect."

Yun Liu Sect was not that famous. With Taiyi Sect at the forefront previously, they were reduced to the background. Even now, the sect was still lacking in disciple and required a lot of new fresh blood.

Su Hei was lacking, but it was not like the other disciples they accepted was any better. It would be better to accept more and let them prove their skills later in the examination in the sect.

"I see. Master is wise," Bai Xin said with smile.

"Go and rest. We're going to depart today."

"Yes, Master!"

Aside from Xu Qin, they also took a few more disciples. While the performance didn't really up to their standard, they needed some new fresh blood. They couldn't be that picky in selecting new students when the situation was already like this.

Xu Qin hurriedly walked over to Su Hei. "I already told her. You'll come with us later."

"Alright. I'll check Lin Xiao's house."

"Find out what happens to my father."

"I'll do my best."

Even though it was what Su Hei said, he had no intention to get involved in so many unnecessary problems. He already knew that Elder Xu might be wounded, so he would just concoct story to Xu Qin and still followed them to the city.

It was not a big deal.

…

Inside the water, Lin Xiao noticed that the cave was open like before. It was eerily quiet. There was no beast around him even though he was sure that there should be some of them. When he came here to follow the three representative, he was sure that he had seen several beasts.

But now… they had disappeared?

He was confused, but he had no time to think about it as he dived deeper and deeper. With his martial arts, it was not hard for him to reach the entrance of the cave. It was then he noticed the various engravings on the edge of the cave.

It was not written in the language he knew. Lin Xiao had learned how to read and write from his foster parents, so he would definitely recognize it if it was normal writing. However, there was something that made him thought that he could understand what was written.

It was strange and bizarre.

'Am I a genius at learning language?'

However, Lin Xiao soon discarded that thought. He still could remember how much his parents punished him when he failed to do the task they a.s.signed to him from time to time.

That was embarra.s.sing.

"Son of the Heaven, A Child favored by the Earth, Emperor selected by Human."

Lin Xiao was stunned when he realized that he had spoken the sentence out loud. At the same time, there was loud rumble from within the cave. He peeked inside, wondering whether he should enter or not.

'Well, just try it.'

Stepping into the cave, Lin Xiao saw that it was actually a s.p.a.cious hall and there was not even any trace of water. He was thoroughly stunned.

It was so dry.

Looking around, he could only see large pillars as if he was inside a majestic building that required a lot of pillars as foundation. The golden color of the pillars made him gulped down. If it was real gold… he would have struck it rich should he take them out.

'But how should I take the pillars out?'

Lin Xiao was sure that even if he punched with all of his strength, the pillar would not even move in the slightest bit.

He looked up and saw that the ceiling was gold in color. There were pictures of dragons filling the sky. It was both majestic and enchanting. However, Lin Xiao moved back his attention back to the room.

There was nothing but pillars.

He was thoroughly confused.

Looking below him, he noticed that there were some patterns on the ground. Slowly, he began to step according to the patterns. One to the right, one to the left, three to the front.

While focusing his attention to the pattern on the ground, Lin Xiao didn't realize that he had arrived at the center of the room.

'This is the last.'

As soon as Lin Xiao stepped on the last tile, there was loud sound coming from underground.

Bam!
