In the main hall of the Eagle Palace of the Ethereal Peak of the Tianshan Mountains, the throne that originally belonged to the palace master was gone, and was replaced by three seats side by side.

The old woman in the center with a tricky and mean face is Granny Du, and on the chair on her left hand is a man in her fifties with a gloomy temperament, who is the prince, and the man with a smile and a small figure on the right hand is Mr. Kang.

There is a person standing with His Royal Highness tied to his hands, and it is the Lord of Andong. The Lord of Andong cautiously glanced at the three people sitting on it from time to time: "That's the thing! The silver mask boy who suddenly killed was really strong in martial arts, and he only took a dozen rounds to abolish the dragon snake staff and his wife, I saw that the situation was not good, thinking that it didn't matter if I lived or died, the important thing was to let the three leaders know the news, so I fled back!"

"Cave Master An has a heart, don't you see the number of that kid's martial arts? Could it be those brainless island masters, cave masters, or those masters who escaped from the Vulture Palace?"

"The fighting time was too short, and the soft sword was elusive and powerful, but the dragon crutch and snake staff couple did not force the silver-masked kid to show his martial arts skills. But it can be determined that he is definitely not from our thirty-six caves and seventy-two islands, and he should not be the master of the original Vulture Palace. "Lord Andong is very convinced.

"From your observations, does Miss Sang know the man in the silver mask?" asked Mr. Kang, tapping his fingers lightly on the armrest.

"I shouldn't know it, but the three leaders of Miss Sang's unconcealable personality also know, if they knew me before, they would definitely be able to see the clues. Lord An Dong thought for a moment and confirmed.

"Okay! Let's do it first! Looks like those diehards must have heard the news of our operation. Only then did he quietly come back to investigate. You go down and inform the other cave owners and island owners that they have been awake for the past few days. Don't let those die-hard devotees spoil our business!" the prince seemed to be in a bad mood. With some impatient wave of his hand, the cave master retreated.

"What do you mean by Mongols? Originally, General Koduan would come directly to us to discuss the follow-up. Why did you make us wait so long and suddenly inform us that an adult named Batu would come and meet us?" the prince grumbled with a gloomy face.

"It's not because we let go of that little girl by mistake, and then we didn't kill that Aunt Li, and we didn't completely cut off the bloodline of the Western Xia royal family. And we haven't found the legendary treasures, although the Mongols said that the treasures are all ours, and they may not want those riches, but they also covet those divine classics, and they also have a little thought. Now that they have found nothing, they must be unhappy in their hearts!" Mr. Kang continued to tap his fingers lightly on the armrest, and said slowly, but the greed and disappointment in his eyes that could not be concealed showed his true thoughts.

"It's not all about that. I heard that the Mongols have also encountered a lot of trouble recently, and they were defeated by Yu Yu on the battlefield in the land of Bashu, and they missed again and again in Tubo. Granny Du saw that Wang Gong and Mr. Kang were a little depressed, so she comforted her.

"And this Lord Batu is not a small person, it is said that he has a lot of connections in the upper echelons of the Mongol Empire, his ancestors have made great achievements, and he is also very capable, very trusted by the Khan, and has a good relationship with His Royal Highness Kublai Khan. If we can catch this line, it will also be of great benefit in the future!" Granny Du smiled, obviously she had already found out about these news.

"Haha! That's good!" Mr. Kang seemed to really believe Granny Du's words, and turned to the prince again. "That kid in the silver mask makes me feel a little uneasy, and I have to bother the prince to make the following clever in the past few days. ”

The three of them conspired for a while, and then left the hall with their own thoughts. The hall suddenly fell into a dead silence, and after a few sparks burst out of the red candles in the hall, the light gradually dimmed.

Behind the chairs of Granny Du, Wang Gong and Mr. Kang, on the front wall of the main hall, a portrait of a carefree child standing in the wind, with a dashing demeanor and vivid eyes, seemed to be silently watching everything that happened in this hall and even in the entire Vulture Palace.

At the same time that the last spark at the burst of the red candle in the main hall was unwillingly extinguished, the eyes on the portrait of Xiaoyaozi seemed to move slightly!

The dark hall suddenly seemed gloomy and cold, and if anyone was still in the hall at this time, they could see that the portrait of Xiaoyaozi on the front wall was really alive, looking left and right of the entire hall.

Immediately after a slight "click!" sound, Xiaoyaozi's portrait actually moved forward slowly, and finally revealed a dark hole, "Whoosh!" Three figures rushed out of the hole.

"Granny Du, these traitors are too lazy to arrange some guards at the gate of the main hall. The everlasting lights in the hall are not lit!" muttered the Sang girl dissatisfiedly, "In the past, there used to be an island master or cave master who was on duty in this hall every day. ”

"Hmph! Now they already know that their rebellion is only for the sake of the treasures of Western Xia and the secret books of the Easy Sect, and they are about to defect to the Mongols, so they have no intention of staying in the Vulture Palace from the beginning!

"Young Palace Master, I didn't expect that there was a secret passage leading to the foot of the Ethereal Peak in this hall!

The Ethereal Peak Vulture Palace has gone through many generations of palace masters, ups and downs and countless ups and downs, and each generation of palace masters in power will more or less build some secret rooms, secret passages and other institutions in order to ensure safety.

This has created many secret rooms and secret passages in the Vulture Palace, and these can only be fully mastered by each palace master, and Meng Yao, as the only daughter of the palace master, is undoubtedly the next palace master, so she has been familiar with the distribution of various secret passages in the Vulture Palace since she was a child.

And the secret passage that leads the main hall to the foot of the mountain has a long history, and Meng Yao has not walked through this secret passage, she took Wu Xiuwen and Miss Sang to look at the foot of the mountain for most of the day with her memory, and only then did she find the hole that had been buried by the heavy snow.

In fact, in the second half of the conversation between Granny Du, Wang Gong and Mr. Kang, Wu Xiuwen, Meng Yao, and Sang Girl had already arrived, and after the three leaders left for a while, they observed that there was indeed no danger, and then they opened the mechanism and went out of the secret passage.

"I don't know which cell those island owners and cave owners are locked up in by them!" Miss Sang was a little distressed.

"Hehe, hey, leave this task to me!" Wu Xiuwen patted his chest and reassured. (To be continued.) )
