“I didn’t look for it on purpose. It was hidden in the same casket that held the Heavenly Spirit Water. I saw it and took it out when I planted the casket on Su Jingyu. I don’t know what it is, but no way I would leave anything that could be good or useful to him.” Su Luo blinked her eyes innocently and shrugged slightly after she finished speaking.
Dumbstruck, Nangong Liuyun looked at Su Luo. After a while, he rubbed her head hard and said, “Were you raised in some special way? Why are you so lucky all the time? You can even walk off with a treasure map while stealing the Heavenly Spirit Water.”
Even though he was the so-called God’s favored one, he envied Su Luo when it came to fortune.
In the few days they had spent together, Nangong Liuyun witnessed Su Luo reach top-grade purple-rank spiritual power and reveal her ability to become a Wood-Fire Double-Talented apothecary and a Space mage. Now she had even accidentally found a treasure map for the Eight Deserts Sacred Mausoleum without any extra effort.
He was so jealous that he wanted to smash himself into the wall.
Nangong Liuyun couldn’t help but speculate. Could this girl be the secret daughter of the goddess of fortune?
Su Luo was getting goosebumps under his steady watch. Her slim fingers poked his arm. “I asked you a question. Answer me quickly, is this really a treasure map?”
“Absolutely positive.” Although Nangong Liuyun’s words were certain, his voice was a little weak. Apparently, he had not yet fully recovered from the blow to his spirit.
“So, you’re saying it’s valuable?” Su Luo’s raised her small face. Her beautiful eyes were as bright as a fresh stretch of water.
“How can you say it’s valuable?” Nangong Liuyun’s face was full of disapproval. “This is no doubt invaluable. The Heavenly Spirit Water can’t even compare.”
“Is it real?” Su Luo was in high spirits. She looked at her clean and delicate hands in confusion. Was it true that her hands had such fantastic luck?
“How could I lie to you? This piece of paper is part of the map for the Eight Deserts Sacred Mausoleum. The Eight Deserts Sacred Mausoleum… It’s a supernatural entity in ancient history. It is said that even the most ordinary people from the Eight Deserts Sacred Mausoleum could annihilate an entire country on our continent with one movement,” Nangong Liuyun explained.
“Even an ordinary person could destroy an entire country with one strike?” As calm as Su Luo was, she couldn’t help but open her pretty eyes wide in surprise.
This… Could this be true? Su Luo could hardly imagine that kind of power. Wouldn’t that mean that their supreme powerhouses would be able to wipe out the whole continent in one move? It was… inconceivable!
“It’s true, according to the legend.” Nangong Liuyun’s eyes were deep, dark, and unfathomable. He spoke gently, saying, “Allegedly, the masters of the Eight Deserts were all killed by infighting many years ago. The bodies of the supreme powerhouses were buried in the Eight Deserts Sacred Mausoleum.”
Nangong Liuyun paused for a moment. His charming and intense eyes stared at Su Luo solemnly. “Their divine artifacts were all buried in the Eight Deserts Sacred Mausoleum as well,” he said.
The divine artifacts of the supreme powerhouses… Su Luo gasped at the thought.
Even ordinary folk from the Eight Deserts were powerful enough to destroy their city. What were the supreme powerhouses capable of?
Yet now, the weapons of those supreme powerhouses were buried in the Eight Deserts Sacred Mausoleum… Even the thought of it made people drool with envy.
“I really want to rob the graves,” Su Luo said. Digging for treasure was her favorite thing.
“Then you’ll have to wait a long time.” Nangong Liuyun’s jet black pupils were glistening brightly like sunshine. Smiling, he gently rubbed her head like a pet. “You are not even a first-rank fighter yet, and you don’t know how to command the most basic spiritual power. How are you going to rob the Eight Deserts Sacred Mausoleum?”
Alright. Su Luo admitted that she was a little disheartened by his words.
