Magic Doctor CEO Lady's Humble Husband (Fade Chen) -
Chapter 1445
"Yes, you're right. We should focus on the Dragon Mausoleum first," Romeo nodded, then he smiled and said, "Instructor Chen, I'll hang up the phone then."
"By the way, my doctor did mention that the effect of Ingram's drug is strong, and it will cause damage to the body if it was kept inside. Instructor, although you are strong and not afraid of the drug, you'd better release it soon."
"If you need some recommendations, I can suggest a place or two for you to release your desires," he said jokingly.
Fade rebuked over the phone, "How dare you make fun of me? I'll double up your training portion for the Five Element Squad then."
"No, Instructor Chen. I know I was wrong. No..."
Romeo wailed but Fade straightaway hung up the phone call.
"So it was Ingram drugging us. No wonder I wasn't able to control myself!" Fade finally understood.
Then, when he thought of what he almost did to Sister Song, he couldn't help but grit his teeth and said, "Ingram, that guy, almost hurt Sister Song with his scheming. I will teach him a lesson later."
Then, he got back into the car and began to work on building up his positive energy. After a round of adjustment, he finally forced the drug out of his body.
Fade was finally back to normal, so he drove himself back home.
The next day, he called Susie and explained what happened the night before. Although he didn't know if she believed him or not, he could at least be at ease after explaining himself. Then, the Martial Arts League sent a message regarding the location and opening date to the Dragon Mausoleum. It said that those who were qualified should get ready to be headed there. Fade confirmed that the access to the Dragon Mausoleum was set in a primeval forest in Zobery District, and the opening date was only a week later.
Not long after he had received the message, Romeo, Master White Claw of the Skull Mob, and Kaeran from Szeto Academy got in touch with him. They asked him if he wanted to head there together. As Fade intended to keep his connection with Szeto Academy and Skull Mob a secret, he decided to go there separately and only start working together once they gathered there.
After all, they weren't the only ones who had won access to the Dragon Mausoleum. There were other huge and powerful families and martial artists who had also gotten their hands on the access. Fade was in the middle of preparing for his journey when he was reminded of something, so he immediately called Kaeran and asked, "Hey, Kaeran, is the Thousand Star Academy going to send someone over?"
Kaeran was startled before he replied, "Not that I know of. Now that I think about it, they also rarely call me regarding the Dragon Mausoleum recently."
"How could this be?" Fade felt that something was amiss.
One must know that the Thousand Star Academy of the Earth Level had sent Kaeran to establish the Szeto Academy in Capital City with a purpose of gathering the information regarding the opening to the Dragon Mausoleum.
Now that the Dragon Mausoleum was about to open, there was still nothing from the Thousand Star Academy but their inaction. This was suspicious.
Seeing through Fade's confusion, Kaeran said, "I'm also curious as to why they didn't send anyone over. I even contacted them to ask about it, but the answer I got was that I should take my people there on my own, and they wanted me to do as much as I can instead of fighting recklessly."
"Do as much as you can? Maybe... the Dragon Mausoleum is too dangerous and the Thousand Star Academy has retreated?" Fade guessed in his heart, but then he shook his head and rejected the idea. The Thousand Star Academy was an Earth Level force. It was on par with the Encyclo Hall and was only narrowly weaker than the four Heaven Level forces. In any case, the Thousand Star Academy could be considered as a powerful force. They had a few Heaven Level experts with them, so they shouldn't have cowered out of fear.
However, he still couldn't come up with any possible explanation for this. Fade could only secretly keep an eye on it, and he reminded Kaeran to be careful and to contact him if anything happened. Later on, after he bade farewell to his friends in Capital City, Fade headed towards Zobery District in a casual outfit.
The plane was headed towards Long City of the Zobery District. After getting off the plane, Fade took the train and rushed to the destination, which was a small town.
Evening had already settled when he arrived. He looked into the distance and caught sight of a vast primeval forest. It was boundless, with no end in sight. The opening of the Dragon Mausoleum was nestled within this forest.
It was visible that there was no transportation to help them get across this forest, and they could only depend on walking.
Fade had bought some food and water in the small town before he proceeded to shoulder his backpack and march to the primeval forest. He moved fast. He had already arrived at the edge of the primeval forest when the sky turned dark.
At the edge of the forest, he saw many tents and bonfires being set up. A gathering place could be spotted almost every 100 meters apart. There were no less than 500 or 600 people present.
Seeing this, Fade could not help but have his interest whetted. "Why are there so many people?"
At a bonfire near him, a group of martial practitioners greeted him. "My friend, are you also here for the Dragon Mausoleum?
Shock flashed across Fade as he asked, "Are you lot the same as me?"
The other party smiled and said, "Hey friend, aren't you funny? Everyone is here for the Dragon Mausoleum."
Hearing this, he was even more surprised. He said, "There are this many people who won access to the Dragon Mausoleum... How did you win it?"
Hearing his words, the other party was startled. He then smiled and said, "Are you kidding me? Only the top-tier forces and experts have obtained the qualification to explore the Dragon Mausoleum. It's naturally impossible for people like us to get something like that."
"Then what's going on here with so many people around..." He pointed to the tents on the edge of the forest and asked.
The other party smiled and said, "Now, how did you come here without making sure what place this is?" "I heard that there were some benefits here, so I came." Fade laughed and pretended to not know anything.
The other party continued to explain, "Actually, just like you, everyone is attracted by the benefits! We won't be able to obtain the right to explore the Dragon Mausoleum, after all."
"All in all, quite a number of large sects and forces have shown up at the opening of the Dragon Mausoleum this time. There might even be some treasures from the outer fringes of the Dragon Mausoleum. If we are lucky enough, we might be able to reap unexpected gains when the time comes."
"Even if I end up empty handed, it's still a one-in-a-decade opportunity to broaden my horizons by laying my eyes on the scene that I never got to see before!"
