<strong>Capítulo 1189: Chapter 1180: Breaking Through</strong>


    Throughout the journey, Xiao Yifei kept asking who had given them their belongings, but not a single person spoke, which left Xiao Yifei feeling quite helpless and annoyed. Eventually, when the man said he couldn’t tell, Xiao Yifei finally couldn’t help but swear. This feeling of knowing yet not knowing left Xiao Yifei unbearably itching.


    Seeing Xiao Yifei this way, the man awkwardly smiled and said, “Little brother, you can’t me me for this. When you promise someone something, you have to uphold it. That’s just the way it is.” Upon hearing this, Xiao Yifei sighed helplessly. The man did have a point—if the person didn’t want to disclose, there was nothing Xiao Yifei could do.


    “Alright, thank you.” In the end, Xiao Yifei gave in, sighed, and thanked the man. Hearing this, the man smiled andforted him, “Don’t worry, little brother, there will always be a way!” Comforted by these words, Xiao Yifei nodded, “I hope so.”


    With that, Xiao Yifei turned around and headed to the next ce. “Ah, when will I ever uncover the secret?” Xiao Yifei sighed as he walked out of the vige, looking at the box in his hand, feeling uneasy. Although obtaining the Green-eyed Silver-tailed Needle is a good thing, things obtained too easily are often more dangerous.


    This principle is something Xiao Yifei could not possibly be unaware of, so while holding the Green-eyed Silver-tailed Needle, he constantly felt uneasy, as though some conspiracy awaited him from behind. However, since Xiao Yifei embarked on this path, it meant there was no turning back. Having found so many things, it would be a shame to quit now.


    “Oh well, getting the Green-eyed Silver-tailed Needle makes it worth the journey I’ve walked so far.” Xiao Yifeiforted himself this way, resolutely stepping into the dark mountains, deciding no matter what ploty ahead, he would push forward!<fna7a4> Th? link to the orig?n of this information r?sts ?n </fna7a4>


    Holding the Green-eyed Silver-tailed Needle, Xiao Yifei felt a bit anxious. Even he himself didn’t know why. He had a feeling like he had fallen into someone’s trap, because the items he acquired before were all ancient jade and jewelry. Suddenly, something crucial to him appeared, which made him suspicious.


    But, regardless, Xiao Yifei decided toplete the parchment journey. Having survived an attempted assassination by an assassin earlier, what did he have to fear? With this thought in mind, Xiao Yifei progressed step by step.


    A day passed, and Xiao Yifei finally arrived at thest ce. Seeing the mark on the parchment, Xiao Yifei was suddenly moved to tears, having walked this far, he finally reached the final destination. Now, Xiao Yifei felt like he was seeing clear skies after a storm, as if he might soon see the truth of the matter.


    This location seemed somewhat unusual, because this time the spot was no longer a vige but a series of earth cers, simr to mines. The entrances to these earth cers were spread across the mountain peaks. Seeing this distribution, Xiao Yifei couldn’t help but wonder why they were earth cers here, unlike the previous vige locations.


    Harboring this doubt, Xiao Yifei slowly walked inside. Following the parchment, Xiao Yifei arrived at an entrance to one of the cers. Having walked all day, the sky was getting dark, and relying solely on daylight, Xiao Yifei couldn’t see the conditions inside the cer. Not seeing the conditions before entering, Xiao Yifei would not do such a foolish thing.


    Luckily, Xiao Yifei had previously asked the boss for some Fire Sticks. These items, just a gentle blow, would light up. Thus, Xiao Yifei would be able to see the situation inside clearly. He lit one Fire Stick and tossed it into the cer first.


    The fire instantly illuminated the entire cer, revealing a fairly ordinary space without anything odd, which set Xiao Yifei at ease. He lit another one, held it in his hand, and walked inside. The cer wasn’t very deep, so Xiao Yifei reached the end after walking a few steps.


    Only to see the Fire Stick in Xiao Yifei’s hand flickering brightly. By this light, Xiao Yifei looked around at the surroundings,yers of soil, and some stored items inside. Apart from these, Xiao Yifei saw nothing else. In response, Xiao Yifei couldn’t help but frown—how could there be nothing at all?


    Xiao Yifei thought about it and began searching around. However, after searching for a while, Xiao Yifei didn’t discover anything suspicious. At this moment, he suddenly noticed something resembling a jar nearby. This item was notrge, but for some reason, Xiao Yifei felt it was a pity. Hence, he went over to take a look.


    An ancient jar, which made Xiao Yifei want to see what was inside, so he reached out to open it. However, just then, a group of people suddenly rushed in and surrounded Xiao Yifei. Each held a torch, encircling him tightly.


    Seeing this, Xiao Yifei frowned and slowly turned around. The crowd observing him did not move, merely watching Xiao Yifei turn around. As soon as he turned, Xiao Yifei saw the people, who surrounded him almost instantly, not giving him any room to react.


    It seemed there was an ambush long in ce. As he thought about this, Xiao Yifei considered how to escape the encirclement. At this point, an elderly man among them slowly stepped out, walking with a cane to the front of the crowd.


    “Who are you, and why have youe to our vige?” the elderly man coughed and asked Xiao Yifei. Hearing this, Xiao Yifei frowned. The reason he came here was purely because of the parchment. Seeing Xiao Yifei not speak, the old man frowned and said, “Young man, you look not too shabby, I advise you toe clean.”


    Hearing the old man say this, Xiao Yifei felt he might not be a bad person. He decided to tell him about the parchment. Xiao Yifei slowly took out the parchment, and upon seeing Xiao Yifei move, the crowd instantly became alert. “What is this?” the old man asked, puzzled, looking at the thing in Xiao Yifei’s hand.


    “What, you don’t know what this is?” Astonished by their confused looks, Xiao Yifei felt shocked. Logically, if they saw this thing, they should at least understand its significance. But now, their expressions suggested they had never seen the parchment Xiao Yifei held.


    Seeing this, the old man turned to ask the crowd, “Does anyone among you recognize this item?” Upon hearing this, everyone looked at each other, but in the end, not a single person knew about the parchment. Witnessing this, Xiao Yifei instantly understood why it broke off at thest step.


    If everything before could be exined, but suddenly it turned out like this, then there was only one answer. Xiao Yifei was deceived. It was a huge scam, and from the moment Xiao Yifei obtained the parchment, he might have already fallen into this trap. Thinking about this, Xiao Yifei couldn’t help but break out in a cold sweat.


    What kind of person could create such arge deception? Holding the parchment tightly, Xiao Yifei frowned—he had walked countless roads because of this parchment, only to find himself tricked at the end. Anyone would find it unbearable.
