Shen Wang’s face twitched, and he frowned: "Don’t be too greedy. People outside have no interest in you, but if other ill-intentioned people see you , they’ll definitely try to rob you."
"Chunmei, just take some money with you. In case of danger, you won’t be able to free your hands to deal with it."
"Master, I want to leave some food for the child. It is already accustomed to this Spirit Rice, and it won’t be used to eating coarse grains."
Chunmei said embarrassedly.
"You won’t be able to eat these for long."
Shen Wang walked over and took out a small cloth bag: "Keeping these will be a waste. I’ll pack them for you."
He took out an extra Storage Pouch to pack the food from the kitchen, then left some power and handed it to Chunmei: "Stick it to your forehead, and you can barely use this thing three times. Find a safe place to take out the items inside. It’s enough for your child to eat for two years. Remember not to show it off, otherwise, you’re courting death."
Chunmei was extremely grateful, having seen such magical treasures before. A palm-sized pouch can store hundreds of times the items, surely very precious.
"Go ahead, don’t look back. It’s best not to return to your hometown in the short term."
Shen Wang reminded her, opening an underground tunnel entrance to let Chunmei leave on her own.
"Master, you are so kind. Many Innate Grandmasters don’t even possess such a Storage Pouch."
Liu Shan, upon seeing Chunmei leave, couldn’t help but marvel. Shen Wang’s generosity to Chunmei meant he would treat them even better, allowing them to follow him without worry.
"Let’s go too, stick these talismans on yourself."
Shen Wang took out talismans and handed them to several people. These were Light Body Talismans and Sound Insulation Talismans, ensuring a quiet retreat without detection.
The Light Body Talisman allowed everyone to walk lightly, while the Sound Insulation Talisman muffled the sounds, especially preventing the noise of babies crying.
If they were discovered with so many people, he would be unable to protect everyone.
After sticking the talismans, two rings of light were released, and Shen Wang swiftly led the group through the underground tunnel from the ancestral hall.
Before leaving, he activated a part of the protective array, appearing to stubbornly resist the Array-Breaking Shuttle’s intrusion.
Outside the array, Yun Lingshu and Profound Thunder Zhenren did not notice for the time being and continued rapidly with the array breaking.
In their perception, the array would soon break open, leaving no one inside to escape.
"You all, spread out and guard the surroundings, prevent him from finding a chance to escape!"
Profound Thunder Zhenren, familiar with Shen Wang, forewarned: "Go check around the mountain for any underground tunnels."
He asked, "Ling Shu, is there anything unusual inside?"
"He’s still inside desperately resisting, but unfortunately, his strength is insufficient against the Array-Breaking Shuttle."
Yun Lingshu chuckled lightly, confident of victory: "In no more than half a day, these arrays will be ruined."
Profound Thunder Zhenren nodded, secretly sweeping the area with his Spiritual Sense, finding no anomalies.
He hadn’t considered that Shen Wang might dig an underground tunnel, and it was deep enough to elude his perception.
Yun Lingshu continued breaking the array, noticing the resistance within had not changed for a long time, making it smooth to break.
With the Mountain Connecting Array integrated with the mountain collapsing after an hour, Profound Thunder Zhenren summoned his Flying Sword, a rumbling sound tore apart the second Top-grade Array.
A black-brown-colored array bore a hole, revealing the ancestral home’s walls and the dilapidated main gate.
The threads controlled by Yun Lingshu continued forward, this time in an area devoid of any array obstruction.
"Where are the other arrays? They were detected before."
She intuitively felt something was wrong and hurriedly scanned within, still meeting no obstruction.
Profound Thunder Zhenren almost simultaneously probed with his Spiritual Sense, quickly exclaiming: "Not good, they might have run away, others, guard the outside."
He swiftly charged into the ancestral home, seeing the empty courtyard and opening several doors with a wave, finding no one.
Only the carp in the pool and vegetables in the courtyard indicated someone had lived here until recently.
With a gentle breeze, Yun Lingshu gracefully appeared beside Profound Thunder Zhenren.
Her beautiful eyes swept around the courtyard: "They must have escaped!"
Profound Thunder Zhenren’s mood changed as he started meticulously probing nearby, quickly sensing something, with an angry face, appearing at a corner.
With a wave of his hand, a heavy stone slab weighing thousands of pounds was flipped open, revealing a hole.
"Damn it, this guy secretly used the tunnel to lead them away!"
Profound Thunder Zhenren cursed loudly, having considered this possibility but detected no anomalies, indicating Shen Wang dug quite deep.
Yun Lingshu’s sharp gaze spotted faint traces.
"I’ll go in and check. Please guard the outside to prevent them from deliberately luring us away."
Profound Thunder Zhenren entered the tunnel with an angry face, rapidly advancing within.
He hadn’t gone far when he suddenly sensed danger.
Firelight appeared ahead, and scanning with his thought, he realized a Detonator Talisman was already burning.
His face twitched, and without hesitation, he enveloped himself with Mana, using his Magical Treasure as a shield.
With a muffled sound, the entire tunnel collapsed, destructive forces tilted upon Profound Thunder Zhenren, blasting him a certain distance.
In the confined space, the Detonator Talisman’s power was immense, instantly shattering the Mana shield, destroying one of his Protective Magical Artifacts, with the remaining force blocked by his Flying Sword.
But other explosive waves collapsed the tunnel, directly burying him underground!
Profound Thunder Zhenren was unharmed yet extremely furious.
This plotting might not be severely harmful but was highly insulting.
"Shen Wang, I’ll have your head!"
Profound Thunder Zhenren roared in the dirt, his voice unable to reach out, growing ever more furious from embarrassment.
He hadn’t anticipated being thwarted this way, the footprints in the tunnel deliberately left by Shen Wang.
Actually, the footprints were left by Chunmei; the Detonator Talisman was deliberately left by Shen Wang for the pursuers.
Outside, Yun Lingshu, sensing the ground tremble, saw part of the tunnel immediately collapse, her face changed: "Not good, there’s an ambush."
She showed urgency but couldn’t help.
The tunnel had already collapsed, unless she possessed Earth Escape techniques like that, otherwise, she couldn’t do much, not even investigate.
"He’s a Golden Core, surely he has methods to protect himself, no need to worry too much, first confirm whether Shen Wang is still here."
After thinking, Yun Lingshu decisively abandoned the tunnel, quickly searching through the courtyard, finding no one, nor a new tunnel.
She cautiously approached the backyard.
An ancient temple appeared in her view, empty except for some weeds.
She noticed the soil where the weeds were growing was much higher than the surroundings. Drawing closer to examine, she identified the soil was recently piled, and the weeds hadn’t been growing long.
"This amount of soil, there must be another tunnel."
Murmuring to herself, she looked towards the temple, holding the Array-Breaking Shuttle and entering it, startled by a pile of white bones inside.
Beside the bones, she again found an entrance to a tunnel.
