Husband and Wife Explore Secrets

Xiao Zetian grunted, "The Tang family is living too comfortably, it's an eyesore."

Su Li clicked her tongue, thinking to herself that Xiao Zetian really knew how to hit people's soft spots—killing with a soft knife, bloodless.

If Tang Shi gets divorced by Zhang Zhuzi, plus the matter of her forcing several households in Shanhucun to cancel their leases, she'd truly become a rat everyone shouts at, her misery comparable to the Su family’s bunch.

The two rode horses, watching from afar as Zhang Zhuzi pushed that kiln girl back to the village. Xiao Zetian turned his horse, avoiding the small path.

After trotting on horseback for about two hours, they stopped at the foot of a mountain unfamiliar to Su Li. Xiao Zetian helped Su Li down from the horse.

"Why did you bring me to such a desolate place?" Su Li asked suspiciously.

Xiao Zetian smiled slightly, holding her hand, "Aren't you afraid I'll sell you out?"

Su Li clicked her tongue, "Sell me out for what? I don't have much meat, not worth anything."

Xiao Zetian laughed heartily, picking Su Li up horizontally, "Hold tight, don’t be afraid."

Su Li felt indignant in her heart. What was there to be afraid of being carried? It’s not like he hadn’t carried her before!

But the next second, Su Li immediately understood what Xiao Zetian meant.

She felt her body lighten, and suddenly she was lifted off the ground—actually flying!

Xiao Zetian held Su Li in his arms and used lightness skill to sprint up the mountain.

Listening to the whistling wind by her ear, Su Li opened her eyes and looked down. Good heavens, they were so high off the ground!

The legendary lightness skill was truly amazing!

"Afraid? You won’t fall, I’m here." Xiao Zetian looked down at her, eyes full of doting.

Su Li grabbed his collar defiantly, "I’m not afraid! I’m not that cowardly! If you dare drop me, you’ll sleep on the floor tonight!"

Xiao Zetian laughed heartily, "My lady is mighty!"

Su Li didn’t expect that Xiao Zetian’s lightness skill would be used for half an hour, carrying her from the foot of the mountain all the way to the top before putting her down.

The mountain was quite high. Su Li thought if it were her climbing, it might take two days to reach the top. But Xiao Zetian? He carried her up in half an hour. Was he even human? Was his martial skill really that high?

Looking at Xiao Zetian, he wasn’t out of breath or flustered, his complexion unchanged—nothing like someone who had just exerted so much lightness skill.

Su Li stuck out her tongue secretly, thinking the War God General was truly formidable. Impressive!

"My lady, follow me," Xiao Zetian held Su Li’s hand and led her toward a cliff face at the mountain top.

Su Li was full of questions. This barren mountain top, deserted and bare, what was there to see? If it was to admire the view, why not pick a prettier spot?

Xiao Zetian brought Su Li to the cliff face. In front of her, he placed his hand on a stone and gently moved it aside.

The stone was a mechanism, and then a small door opened in the cliff face. Xiao Zetian looked back at her, "Do you dare to enter with me?"

"Of course I dare!" Su Li puffed out her chest and urged, "Hurry up and go in. I want to see what mysterious things need to be hidden so secretly."

A look of approval appeared in Xiao Zetian’s eyes. His lady truly had outstanding courage. He took Su Li’s hand and they slipped into the secret door.

Once inside, the door closed behind them. Inside was another world, not dark at all.

Su Li glanced ahead and saw deep, winding stairs leading downward. Xiao Zetian held her hand as they slowly descended the stairs. After walking for the time it takes to burn an incense stick, the narrow passage opened up, revealing a scene that shocked Su Li so much her jaw nearly dropped.
