My Waste Husband
Chapter 1123

Chapter 1123

At eleven o'clock at night.

Henry was sitting in the lobby of Glory Hotel. He saw hundreds of people gathered in front of the lobby of the hotel. Then, guided by Section Nine, they went to the entrance of the underground palace together.

Looking at the group of people who were in high spirits, Henry had an inexplicable excitement in his heart. Even Henry himself did not know where this excitement came from.

This feeling made Henry panic.

In the underground palace, there must be something that was affecting him. What was it?! This kind of inexplicable excitement and panic made Henry feel like sitting on pins and needles. Looking at those forces going to the underground palace, Henry took a deep breath, walked out of the hotel and came to the parking lot.

He opened the door, got in the car, and went straight to the Emperor's Mausoleum.

Tonight, he must find out what was underneath the underground palace. Above the desolate mausoleum, a full moon hung in the sky. There were no birds nor grass.

A thatched cottage was not far from the mausoleum. Compared to the modern buildings, the fence around the thatched cottage was like a joke.

This sort of fence couldn't really be used to defend against people. This type of fence would only keep away people who followed the rules. Otherwise, even a child could destroy this fence.

The motor sound broke the silence surrounding the mausoleum. A light illuminated the lonely thatched cottage.

In front of the thatched cottage, there was an iron sword still inserted in the ground. From the last time Henry left to now, it had not been moved.

A slim figure lifted the curtain of the hut.

Verrail looked at Henry, who got out of the car and said, "If you don't have a reason, you wouldn't come to me. Why did you come to me in the middle of the night? Is it because you want to drink soup?"

"I want to hear you tell the story."

Henry locked the car and skillfully pushed open the door of the fenced yard and said, "In fact, I've been curious about one thing."

Verrall stood in front of the thatched cottage and made a gesture of invitation.

Henry sat on the stone bench in the fenced yard.

The moonlight fell from the sky and shone on the stone table.

Verrail looked at Henry and sighed. "Last time I saw you, you didn't know how to control your Qi. Now, you have such strength. You deserve to be the one he chose."

"Oh?"

Henry asked curiously, "Do you know him?"

Verrail gave a self-deprecating smile.

"I don't know him, but all of my seniors do."

"Back then... forget it, let's not talk about the past. Now, he is no longer there. Sanford is also trapped in Kunlun's ice cave. The people from that era are dead or disabled, and few of them could stand out. I was poor at that time, and I could only be regarded as a junior. I couldn't see their elegant demeanour."

Verrail shook his head again and sighed.

Henry looked at Verrail. "Don't you know what happened that year?"

"I don't know."

Verrail shook his head. "I'm only seventy-seven. When they were smiling proudly, I wasn't born yet. When I was born, the world had already changed and there was no Qi." "Why did they hide Qi?" Henry asked the question he had been puzzled for a long time, "In the whole world, there should be no less than 100,000 Qi-refining practitioners, right?"

"One hundred thousand?"

Verrail smiled. "Hundreds of years ago, who didn't practice Qi?"

"But now, the number of Qi- refining masters is 100,000?"

"Do you think it is a lot?"

Henry stared at Verrail without saying anything, waiting for Verrall's explanation.

"Forget it."

Verrail sighed. "At that time, I advised you not to get in contact with the Qi because I didn't want you to get involved in this vortex. The Qi-controlling Realm experts are not allowed to lay their hands on ordinary people. If one is not in the Qi-controlling Realm, he would be safe. You have already

reached the Qi-concentrating Realm. You can't get out of this vortex. It's time for you to know something."

"What vortex? Will it implicate me?"

Henry asked again.

Verrall stood up and glanced at the sword pierced into the ground outside the fenced yard. With his hands behind his back, he said, "This is also the reason why they decided to hide the Qi. Have you ever heard of an ancestral weapon?"

Henry nodded. "Now, isn't there an ancestral weapon in the capital, belonging to the three ancient kungfu families?"

"To be precise, every family that was passed down has an ancestral weapon. Ancient kung- fu families had it, so do their clans. Many years ago, the ancient kung- fu families and clans were a family. Later on, some families decided to remain in contact with Qi, while others' bloodline got cut off and they were left with ancestral weapons. Here, the ancient kung-fu family and clans were formed."

Verrall was strolling in the courtyard. "In the beginning, someone deliberately separated the ancestral weapons from the Qi. I don't know the reason, but rumour has it that the Qi and the weapons could be combined. If you are not in the Qi-controlling Realm, no one can force you with your strength in the mortal world. But now you are involved in this vortex. There are so many people staring at your secret."

Henry frowned. "Do you think there are those things in Master Lu's tomb?"

Verrall shook his head. "It's just a rumour, but it's enough to mess up the world. At present, the clans haven't emerged yet. Once they do appear, I'm afraid that there will be countless people

coming for you. Therefore, I tried my best to stop you when you were looking for trouble. Unfortunately, you and Wilbur have always wanted to figure out what it was. In the end, no one can stop you. You were able to grow from a challenger to an invincible person in the secular world, which shows that you will never stop on the road to becoming stronger. Therefore, when you caught your Qi, the Sackcloth Visitor came to you immediately and recruited you into the Recluse Association. He is afraid that turbulence will happen on the day when the clans are born. As a member of the Recluse Association, they can at least keep you safe for a while."

Henry was stunned.

He had always felt that there were people who wanted to hide their Qi. However, now he understood that no one had ever been able to hide these things. Those who understood were always able to. Those who didn't understand were not gifted, and a small number of people were currently on their way.

Henry took a deep breath and said, "I have one more question. What on earth is the inheritance at the bottom of the Emperor's Mausoleum?"

Verrall couldn't help but look in the direction of the mausoleum. There was a look of yearning in his eyes. "It belongs to the Western Xia Dynasty. There is a complete set of Qi and weapons there. Don't ask me what will happen if one combines Qi and weapons. I've never seen it before, and I have no idea."

Henry frowned again. "Is that all?"

Henry couldn't accept Verrall's explanation. If it was just a simple inheritance, then why did he feel so excited?

Verrail nodded. "That's all."

Henry glanced at the sharp sword outside the fenced yard. He made up his mind and said, "I want to go down and have a look."

Verrail made a gesture of invitation. "The key is there. If you want to go, you can do it anytime."

Henry got up and gave a fist- palm salute to Verrail. Then he walked out of the fenced yard and picked up the sword inserted in the ground.

The moment the sharp sword entered Henry's hand, Henry felt a cold sensation. He could clearly sense the sharpness of the sword.
