Cui Buping hesitated for a moment before his expression firmed. With a flash, he entered the tunnel. Inside, a cold draft whistled through, yet there was no scent of decay.
This was a place that not even Ma Wuchang and the others knew about!
Only the successive Patriarchs of the Cui Family were privy to this secret. This place was the single most important location for the ten-thousand-year-old Cui Family!
As for that underground city, it was merely an empty subterranean fortress. Although it was also a top secret of the Cui Family, it was nowhere near as important as this place. This was where the Cui Family had stored all its most precious treasures accumulated over ten thousand years!
Most importantly, it held the very thing that had allowed the Cui Family to rise to prominence... the Ancient Map!
The light underground was dim. The faint glow from the Everlasting Lamps on the walls cast Cui Buping's long shadow, making it flicker and dance on the ground.
