The Legend of the Immortal Cauldron

Chapter 1555: The Wu Family of Jingchuan State

Although Matthew already knew the direction of the Wu family in Jingchuan, he only knew roughly.

So, after flying for a while, he let Wu Xi out and asked him to point out the exact route.

Wu Xi was a little confused when he first came out, after all, Matthew had always sealed him in the Qinglong bracelet.

He didn't know anything about the outside world.

After Matthew patiently explained to Wu Xi where they were now, Wu Xi finally understood.

Matthew had promised him to go to the Wu family in Jingchuan.

Wu Xi didn't have much hope in his heart.

Especially after he was sealed for such a long time, the last bit of hope in Wu Xi's heart was almost wiped out.

But now, Matthew said he would take him to the Wu family in Jingchuan, which surprised and delighted Wu Xi.

While flying, Matthew asked Wu Xi to identify the direction.

Although he had been away for a long time, Wu Xi was still able to accurately guide Matthew.

Because he had to constantly identify the direction, Matthew's flying speed was not very fast.

About half a month later, he finally arrived in Jingchuan.

Jingchuan is indeed not big, and the spiritual energy here is not as strong as other places.

The location of Wu's family is also easy to find.

But when the two of them arrived in front of the Wu's mansion, they were stunned.

They saw that the gate of Wu's family, which was originally quite impressive, had long lost its former glory.

The gate was open, the paint was peeling, and the facade was mottled, as if the traces of time were deeply imprinted on it.

The former red door and gold nails were also rusty and dull.

In particular, there were many gaps on the gate, as if it had been attacked by weapons.

The stone lions beside the door were no longer majestic, and were covered with dust and weeds.

Wu Xi didn't care about Matthew and ran in directly.

After Matthew went in, he saw that the originally spacious courtyard had now become deserted, overgrown with weeds, and the stone road was broken.

Following Wu Xi into a house, the former splendor was no longer there.

The walls were peeling, the pillars were leaning, the roof was leaking, and everything was dilapidated and desolate.

"How could this happen? What happened?"

Wu Xi leaned against a collapsed pillar and whispered weakly.

Even though Matthew came here for the first time, he knew from the situation here that the Wu family must have suffered a catastrophe.

Moreover, it has been a long time.

"Take me to the place where the last holy artifact is stored." Matthew said softly without paying attention to Wu Xi's mood changes at the moment.

Although the voice was not loud, it was unquestionable.

Wu Xi quickly recovered from his depressed mood after hearing this.

He hurriedly stood up and said, "Lord, the holy artifact was placed in the dark room before. I don't know if it is still there now. Let's go and take a look first."

After that, he led Matthew to the dark room he mentioned.

After walking out of this room, the two went straight to the back.

Along the way, all they could see were ruins.

Some buildings have completely collapsed into a pile of ruins.

Even occasionally, some completely blackened bloodstains can be seen on a few broken walls.

Obviously, a fierce battle had taken place here, and now, only a piece of desolation and ruin remains.

The interior of the Wu family makes people feel a heavy sense of depression.

The wind blew gently, bringing a hint of coolness, blowing on the cheeks of the two.

They walked silently, and no one spoke.

"This place should have been deliberately cleaned by someone, and there is not even a corpse."

At this time, Matthew also spoke softly.

"I remember that the Wu family did not offend any powerful forces in the past, and the strength of the forces that had grudges against us was not much different from each other. It is impossible to have the ability to wipe out the entire Wu family." Wu Xi shook his head and said.

No matter how he guessed, he couldn't figure out what happened to cause the Wu family to become what it is now.

A moment later, the two came to the front of a rockery.

Looking at the rockery that had been cut off by most of it, Wu Xi smiled bitterly.

This is the entrance to the dark room. Now that the rockery has been destroyed, the things inside are most likely gone.

Behind the rockery is a circular hole with a staircase inside.

Matthew did not let Wu Xi lead the way this time, and went directly into the cave.

Seeing this, Wu Xi hurriedly followed.

There was a foul stench below.

After Matthew came down, his brows couldn't help but frown.

He said before that the outside had been deliberately cleaned up, but he had only finished speaking for a short time.

Now, a pile of bones was placed in front of him.

After Wu Xi followed in, his legs went weak and he almost couldn't stand.

Not seeing a corpse outside might give him a little more hope.

Maybe there were still tribesmen who escaped.

But there were so many bones here that Wu Xi's hope was instantly extinguished.

With so many bones piled up here, the hope of the Wu family escaping was extremely slim.

It is even possible that he is the only one left in the Wu family.
