Urban Super Medical Sage-Chapter 630 - 624

"Just let me and Qingrou... enter the ancestral house, that’s enough," Su Chen said, his words somewhat slurred.

His mind really was swayed. Qiu Su was a sprite—the kind that could make one’s head spin. She was so close, and he had to be very certain of his resolve; otherwise, he would have been dazzled, maybe even lost his composure, right?

Even so, he bit his tongue, using the pain to remind himself to stay alert.

"Okay, now, sister will take you and little sister Qingrou to the ancestral house." The next moment, Qiu Su let go of Su Chen, giving him a white-eyed glance that seemed to reproach him for not responding warmly to her advances just now.

"Huff huff huff..." Su Chen took deep breaths and hurriedly stepped back twice, retreating to Yu Qingrou’s side.

"Giggle, Su Chen, you have good concentration," Yu Qingrou teased, but she too was charming and alluring to the extreme.

"Qingrou, that’s enough. With a Great Demon teasing me, you little demon should hold back a bit!" Su Chen said with a wry smile. Pressured by Qiu Su’s teasing, if Yu Qingrou unleashed her ultimate move, he might really lose his composure.

"Giggle, I’ll listen to you, Brother Chen," Yu Qingrou’s voice, full of coquettish charm, nearly melted Su Chen’s bones.

Under Qiu Su’s guidance, they quickly arrived at the ancestral house.

It was nothing like what Su Chen had imagined.

Before them, the ancestral house turned out to be a cave.

In front of the ancestral house, a line of Martial Cultivators stood guard. These cultivators were all very powerful, but breaking in forcefully didn’t seem too difficult—at least, he and Yu Qingrou should be able to manage it.

It seemed Qiu Su had noticed what Su Chen was thinking.

"This is the ancestral house of Li City. Su Chen, you’re lucky I’m taking you inside. Otherwise, if you had tried to force your way in, it would’ve been a disaster," Qiu Su said with a smile. "There are no less than twelve mechanisms inside the ancestral house, including the Gravity Stone Gate, Heaven Earth Crossbow, Ancient Sword Formation, Ancient Stacked Bee Swarm, and other mechanisms. Even I would certainly die if I tried to force my way in."

Su Chen nodded with a bitter smile. It seemed he had been naive; the War God of Qiuqing must have safeguarded his legacy well. It wouldn’t be so easy to just barge in.

The next moment, Qiu Su lifted a torch. "Stay close to me. After entering the ancestral house, do not touch the stone walls or wander off without my permission, or you might trigger a mechanism."

Qiu Su spoke very seriously and with gravity.

Su Chen and Yu Qingrou nodded.

Soon, they entered the cave, which began with a narrow, somewhat constricted passage, all made of rock. The natural stone walls, illuminated by the torchlight, revealed many runes etched into them.

"These are Ancient Runes, and there are many hidden holes in these walls, with mechanisms placed inside them. Once they are triggered, the runes will enhance the mechanisms, multiplying their power many times over," Qiu Su explained. "Make sure your footsteps are exactly like mine."

Su Chen and Yu Qingrou watched Qiu Su’s carefully measured steps.

Qiu Su’s footwork was incredibly intricate and strange.

"These movement patterns have been tried and tested through millions of years of bloodshed and sacrifice by the Qiuqing clan," Qiu Su said somberly.

Su Chen and Yu Qingrou nodded silently, their expressions solemn, while Su Chen absorbed the deeply concentrated Ancient Breath around them. His Divine Mansion was becoming excited.

As they walked, they covered what must have been nearly a kilometer, and it seemed that they were reaching the end of the passage.

At that moment, Qiu Su suddenly stopped and turned around. "We’re almost at the end of the Runes Passage. Coming up is the outer layer of the ancestral house. Inside the outer layer, there’s the Ancestral Pool, but listen..."

Qiu Su pointed toward the stone wall ahead and above them. "That’s the Gravity Stone Gate, weighing the Power of Ten Thousand Dragons!!! Moreover, it’s imbued with deadly poison! And if we take one more step forward from here, the stone gate will fall... We need to leap through the air to get inside..."

With those words, Qiu Su took off, leaping across.

Su Chen and Yu Qingrou did the same.

Next second, the three of them entered a grand hall.

This hall is about the size of a football field on Earth.

The hall was very spacious, with only nine giant stone pillars standing upright!

Those nine pillars were arranged around a pool about ten meters in length and width, and the pool contained a liquid, a kind of dark black liquid that was churning and boiling.

"That pool, is the Ancestral Pool!" Qiu Su said solemnly, pointing at the pool. "It is said that during the Ancient Era, it was left by our ancestor, the War God of Qiuqing, and its purpose is to activate the ancestral veins of our clan members. Do you want to enter the Ancestral Pool?"

Su Chen and Yu Qingrou shook their heads. The two of them were not people from the Qiuqing Continent; what ancestral vein would they activate?

Qiu Su wasn’t surprised and said, "Then let’s continue on!"

"Continue on?" Su Chen raised an eyebrow, seeming to see no way forward!

Yet, Qiu Su’s entire body executed a movement technique, creating ripples of speed as she weaved between the nine pillars, her palms constantly touching the pillars in what seemed a haphazard manner, but there seemed to be a hidden pattern in her movements.

Su Chen saw it clearly, Qiu Su touched the pillars a hundred times over, it was dizzyingly complex.

Finally, Qiu Su stopped.

Boom boom boom...

The nine stone pillars began to flicker with a simple, dull gray light, and those pillars began to move, the entire space subtly shaking. freewebnσvel.cøm

Su Chen and Yu Qingrou watched the scene before them, shocked.

"To pass from the outer layer to the inner layer, one must open the passage like this!" Qiu Su came next to them, somewhat proudly adding, "Only the city master knows how to open this passage. It is passed down from one city master to the next, with no second person knowing."

A few breaths later, the nine stone pillars disappeared, and what appeared in front was a gigantic pit!!!

And there was a stone staircase leading down into the pit that seemed to go on without end.

"Follow me, this passage leads to the Inner Layer, but there are traps all over the staircase, so you still need to watch my steps closely," Qiu Su said as she took her first step, her voice firm.

Su Chen and Yu Qingrou nodded gravely and followed Qiu Su closely as they headed downwards.

Stepping on the stone stairs, what Su Chen felt was the cold!

Below was like an ice cellar.

In addition, the staircase seemed to hang in midair, with nothing surrounding it but endless darkness.

It looked rather terrifying.

Yu Qingrou even subconsciously leaned closer to Su Chen.

Walking and walking!

A full hour!!!

Finally, Qiu Su stopped.

But, in front, there was still darkness, with nothing in sight.

"Are we there yet?" Su Chen asked.

"We have arrived," Qiu Su nodded, then she raised her torch and touched it to something in front of her. Suddenly, a rectangular torch like a beacon was ignited, illuminating the surroundings.
