Mi Ziwen didn’t release his aura either. He didn’t believe a single word Yin Yuzhu said. If he couldn’t find those hundreds of brothers, he wouldn’t let Yin Yuzhu off even if he had to fight to the death.

“Okay, okay. I concede defeat.” Yin Yuzhu raised her hands helplessly. “This is the ruins of the Red Water Heaven of Dan Mountain.”

“Red Water Heaven of Dan Mountain?” Mi Ziwen’s expression changed slightly.

“That’s right. The Red Water Heaven of Dan Mountain,” Yin Yuzhu said. “The bronze plate in your king’s hand is an identity token of the Red Water Heaven of Dan Mountain. It was very useful back then, but it’s useless now.”

Mi Ziwen had attended the meeting at the camp about the Red Water Heaven of Dan Mountain, but Lu Wenshuang had never heard of it.

She looked questioningly at Mi Ziwen.

“When General Xiao raided a rat demon tribe near the camp, he found an identity bronze plate with the words Red Water Heaven of Dan Mountain engraved on it,” Mi Ziwen explained. “We suspect that the Red Water Heaven of Dan Mountain might be a sect or organization of some sort.”

“Should I say that you guys are ignorant? In ancient times, there were no nations. At the time, there were only sects. This Red Water Heaven of Dan Mountain was a sect that focused on forging,” Yin Yuzhu said. “Just treat it as a small country. The map you discovered is the topographic map of the Red Water Heaven of Dan Mountain.”

“If you knew all this, why didn’t you say so?” Mi Ziwen frowned.

Yin Yuzhu didn’t say this in the camp!

“You didn’t ask me,” Yin Yuzhu said righteously. “Do I have to approach you myself to tell you that I know the place where the map is pointing to?

“Even if I did, would you believe me?

“It’s like what I’m saying now. This mountain is the remains of the Red Water Heaven of Dan Mountain, but do you believe it?”

“Of course not.” Mi Ziwen snorted. “Since the Red Water Heaven of Dan Mountain is a human sect, why are its ruins in the Demon Realm? And the terrain here is completely different from that on the map.”

“I told you it’s the ruins. Do you understand ruins?” Yin Yuzhu patted her smooth forehead speechlessly. “Only this mountain is the ruins of the Red Water Heaven of Dan Mountain. The other places around it are not.

“The Red Water Heaven of Dan Mountain isn’t what you think it is. It’s not in the Demon Realm or the Ten Nations Continent. It’s not in the sky or the ground.

“When it fell apart, it was scattered. What’s so strange about a mountain landing here?”

“Why do you know all this? You didn’t tell us before, and now you’re telling us all this. What are you trying to do?” Mi Ziwen frowned.

“I’ve lived a thousand years and eaten more salt than you’ve eaten rice. I know a lot of things,” Yin Yuzhu said proudly. “I’m telling you this because I don’t want to be wronged, although I don’t lose anything even if you’ve wronged me.”

Mi Ziwen and Lu Wenshuang looked at each other. They didn’t know if Yin Yuzhu was telling the truth.

“Go on. What other secrets are there here!” Mi Ziwen said in a low voice. From the current information, he still couldn’t see why the hundreds of Hundred Wars Armored Army soldiers had disappeared.

“Didn’t I ask you here to dig up this mountain and see what secrets there are in the Red Water Heaven of Dan Mountain?” Yin Yuzhu said angrily.

“You…” Even with Lu Wenshuang’s cold personality, she was angered by Yin Yuzhu. She felt that she had said a lot, but on careful thought, there was nothing of value at all!

Even if they knew that Red Water Heaven of Dan Mountain was an ancient sect, even if they knew that this mountain was the ruins of the Red Water Heaven of Dan Mountain, so what?

It wasn’t helpful in finding the hundreds of armored soldiers!

Lu Wenshuang thought about how her master had specially instructed her to keep an eye on Yin Yuzhu before they set off. In the end, such a thing happened. What would her master think of her?

Would the image she had worked so hard to rebuild with her master crumble?

The damn woman!

“Miss Yin, let me ask you a question. Are my brothers still alive?” Mi Ziwen said coldly.

“If you want to know, wouldn’t you know after digging up all this mountain?” Yin Yuzhu said. “They disappeared here. It’s obvious that it has something to do with this mountain. As the saying goes, the one who creates the problem should be the one to solve it…”

Mi Ziwen stared at Yin Yuzhu with a frown.

He was certain that she knew something.

But she refused to say anything, and there was nothing Mi Ziwen could do to her.

Yin Yuzhu was a first-rank expert. Even if they completely fell out with her, they might not be able to kill her. As for interrogation, it was even more impossible.

Even with all of them combined, they weren’t confident in capturing Yin Yuzhu alive.

Zhou Shu was probably the only one in the entire camp who could do this.

“Little Mi, work harder. This mountain isn’t that big. We’ll be able to dig it all open in a few days,” Yin Yuzhu continued. “Hurry up. Perhaps your brothers are still alive.”

Yin Yuzhu’s words made Mi Ziwen’s face darken. “Miss Yin, I promise you that if anything happens to my brothers, regardless of whether this matter has anything to do with you, I will take revenge on you!”

“Isn’t it a woman’s prerogative to be unreasonable?” Yin Yuzhu blinked in confusion.

“I, Mi Ziwen, may not be your match now,” Mi Ziwen continued, ignoring her. “But my second brother can kill you as easily as killing a chicken. When the time comes, even if I have to bear the humiliation, I will beg my second brother to kill you to repay the souls of those hundreds of brothers in heaven!”

Mi Ziwen’s face was solemn, his words powerful.

Yin Yuzhu rolled her eyes, speechless. Could threatening someone be so refreshing and refined?

“If I were you, I’d hurry up and dig up the mountain. You might even be able to save them.” Yin Yuzhu curled her lips. “Would I be afraid of your threat?”

Mi Ziwen snorted coldly. He could naturally tell that Yin Yuzhu was implying something, but it sounded like the hundreds of missing brothers were at least still alive.

“Dig!” Mi Ziwen gritted his teeth and said to the remaining armored soldiers behind him.

Without Yin Yuzhu noticing, Mi Ziwen shot a look at a soldier. The soldier took advantage of the fact that everyone had dispersed to dig the mountain and quietly left, heading toward the camp of the Huaxia Pavilion’s Demon Realm branch.

Mi Ziwen didn’t notice that when her back was facing him, a sly glint flashed across Yin Yuzhu’s eyes, like a fox that had stolen a chicken.

…

In the Huaxia Pavilion’s Demon Realm branch, Zhou Shu looked at the residue on the ground and frowned slightly.

Another failure.

Without Yang Hong’s luck enhancement, he had tried several times in a row but couldn’t forge another connate divine weapon. Every time, he would encounter some problems that would cause the weapon to collapse.

There’s no problem in theory. Why won’t it work?

Zhou Shu frowned in thought. He recalled every step in his mind, trying to discover the reason for his failure.

Unfortunately, the Legendary Armament Canon was still upgrading. Otherwise, according to his past experience, when he forged the Crimson Firmament Sword, the Legendary Armament Canon would include it and automatically optimize its forging method.

Now that he couldn’t use the Legendary Armament Canon, he could only slowly figure it out himself.

But since he had succeeded once, he was confident that he would eventually perfect this connate divine weapon forging technique. Even without the Legendary Armament Canon, he was now a top-notch forger. To him, the Legendary Armament Canon was more of a tool to increase his cultivation.

Just as Zhou Shu was about to try again, Shi Songtao’s voice came from outside. “Pavilion Master, Mi Ziwen sent someone back to report something important. Look…”
