Chapter 758: Looking For Trouble
At this point, upon hearing the old man’s remark, the exorcists started to discuss among themselves . “This person from the family of Zhuge Yun is fantastic . I thought they were merely lucky to be the first to arrive at the place . Their capability is definitely on par with the Ni family from the looks of it now, how astonishing!”

“Of course, even Old Li acknowledges them!” The exorcists’ increased the volume of their voice .
Ni Hu was displeased upon hearing their conversations . Thinking of the way he was made fun of just a moment ago and looking at how everyone was treating Zhuge Yun and others like heroes, an intense feeling of discontent engulfed his brain!
“All he did was just opening the tomb door, what’s so great about it . ” Ni Hu took a step forward along with his servants by the side while saying so . “Any disciples from the Ni family would be able to do so anyway . ”
“You…” Zhuge Yun got irritated and was about to walk toward him but Helian Wei Wei extended her arm to block his way .
Zhuge Yun turned his head around out of bewilderment .
Helian Wei Wei put on a rather meaningful smile . “Leave them to it . ”
“Why?” It was them who opened the tomb door first . Zhuge Yun was even more perplexed now; he raised his arm and scratched the back of his head .
Ni Hu swaggered his way forward . The two disciples of the Ni family by his left and right side thought nothing was going to happen so they pushed the other door aside without hesitation .
Ni Hu was still grinning as he fixed his gaze at Helian Wei Wei and the rest with eyes filled with disdain…
Unexpectedly, the two disciples of the Ni family were bewitched in a blink of an eye and fell forward right away!
The corners of their lips carried an eerie smile as if they had come across something before their death .

Ni Hu’s facial expression changed instantly, and even his legs quivered . If it was not for the two disciples who led the way, he would be dead by now!
It was a sense of fear that he had never experienced before, just like an invisible hand grasping Ni Hu’s heart tightly, causing him to have difficulties in breathing!
The other exorcists froze in fear at that instant, the overwhelming trepidation in their eyes showed the reflection of the dead bodies .
Ni Biao was the fastest to react . He immediately dragged Ni Hu back at once, worried if anything would happen to his beloved son .
A deafening silence reigned the scene .
No one had expected this to happen as they were all just chatting around a while ago and the next moment a situation as such occurred .
What induced their uneasiness was the fact that there was no premonition at all!
Be it wraiths or ghosts, none of them were seen . All they did was merely pushing the door aside and both of them died for no reason .
The expression of every exorcist turned strange . A tense atmosphere gradually spread across the crowd .
“It’s better for us to watch out . ” Someone tried to remind others . “The royal tomb is an ancient tomb with a thousand years of history . It is different from the usual tombs we have encountered, it’s better not to move forward hastily . ”
It was obvious that these words were directed toward the young master of the Ni family who intended to show off .

Ni Biao was infuriated upon hearing it, yet he could not show it on his face . After all, it was true that they must not let down their guard in the current situation .
“But, how did they die?”
This made all the exorcists distraught with extreme fear .
They were not afraid of ghosts or monsters, at least they could see them .
Their greatest fear was some other things that were out of their control .
Zhuge Yun looked toward Helian Wei Wei’s side profile . For some unknown reason, his instincts told him that Brother Wei must have known the answer .
Helian Wei Wei gave out a smile, indeed, she knew about it . “Methane gas is also known as poisonous gas . As the tomb was not open for such a long time, when the air volatilized, only methane gas which is harmful to the human body would be left behind . You’ll fall for it if you don’t watch out . ”
A few casual words were more than enough to make the exorcists lay their eyes on her .
“This person knows everything!”
“Brilliant! Is he really an amateur? He doesn’t look like it at all!”
“His body does not have spiritual aura . Think about it carefully, the things he said are not written in the Art of Exorcism manual at all . ”

“So, he doesn’t know exorcism but knows well about the ancient tombs?”
“I bet he knows more than that . Didn’t you hear what Old Li said? If this person is around, there would be no need for him to follow this far . This means that his knowledge was on par with Old Li . ”
“On par with Old Li?” Someone was astonished!
From their ignorance in the beginning until the amazement they felt now, the exorcists could no longer express their feelings now .
They finally realized how powerful the Zhuge family was!
Ni Biao’s eyes squinted treacherously when no one was aware . It seemed like he would need to get rid of these three eyesores!
All they knew was the Art of Eight Trigrams in terms of the graveyard, yet, they had humiliated the Ni family over and over again . These people would continue to be a pain in the neck if the Ni family did not get rid of them!
He would not leave behind any obstacles that would block his way .
Now is not the time to act, wait till we enter the graveyard . When each team starts to split up, I will let these three people have a taste of the Ni family’s tricks!
Even until now, Ni Biao still did not think that they would be a threat to him . Having knowledge about the tomb would certainly be an advantage to them . However, one would need spiritual energy and art of exorcism if they wished to reach the end of the journey . Yet, two out of three of them had no knowledge of cultivation .
A team as such could only have a brief taste of glory in the beginning .
Soon, they would wail miserably!
Some exorcists thought of the same thing as Ni Biao . Aside from showing signs of admiration, they knew they needed to be more visionary . Hence, they did not join in the conversations, but instead, they fixed their gaze on the old tomb raider who was rather in the clouds . “Old Li, can we move forward already?”
Just then, Old Li came to his senses . “Yes, let’s go . Watch your steps . ”
“Alright . ” Everyone kept their guard up even without Old Li’s warning, not having even a bit of recklessness . They took slow and steady steps into the tomb one by one, purposely avoiding the corpses on the ground .
It was quite spacious inside the graveyard . The place was magnificent just like an Underground Palace . Even the grounds they stepped on were made of stones, let alone those sculptures .
“What are these?” Out of curiosity, one of the disciples of the Ni family stretched out his hand and pointed at an object which looked like a layer of black iron covering the sculpture . He did not know what it was even after looking at it for some time . All he could see was a faint glimmer of light emitting from it .
Old Li shouted as soon as he saw it . “Don’t touch it!”
That disciple of the Ni family trembled out of fear and retrieved his hands in a flash!
