Chapter 904: Secret Door

Translator: Lonelytree

The moment the blood touched the old woman’s lips, it seeped into her body.

The old woman pushed my hand away once again. She was a little flustered. “There’s no need. There’s really no need. I feel much better already.”

I thought about it and didn’t know how much was appropriate. If I gave her too much, would it have the opposite effect? Thus, I retracted my hand. “Granny, you must persevere. When we can get out, I’ll definitely get a doctor to take a look at you. When the time comes, he will know how much to use. I don’t understand these things. I’m afraid that it will harm you instead.”

The elder nodded. She looked much more spirited than before. That son of hers was completely dumbfounded.

“Elder, what you said just now, who was the one who wanted to harm the Tong family? Can you tell me?” I didn’t know where to begin. The matters of my parents had always been pieced together. The surviving members of the Tong family…

The Tong family’s destruction was caused by Tong Hui and Tong Zhuo. This was what we had always known.

The elder suddenly grabbed my hand. “Why are you here? How did you get in? Did they lock you up?”

Her breathing quickened once again. She grabbed my hand tightly.

I patted her with my other hand. “Don’t worry. I’m quite safe now. The Mute Girl is your daughter, right? She’s here under orders to serve me.”

“You’ve met my sister?” The son immediately became excited.

On the contrary, the old man was calmer. “Is she alright?”

I nodded. “She’s fine. Don’t worry. I’ll definitely protect her.”

“Were you captured?” The old woman seemed to have figured it out.

I thought for a moment. “I was tricked into coming here by a bastard called Wen Dian. He was quite polite to me because he wanted to use my Phoenix Blood.”

The old woman suddenly became nervous. “Child, you have to leave. You have to think of a way to escape. You can’t let him succeed. It was his family that caused the Tong family to be wiped out. It was they who cast a huge net and caused the Tong brothers to split up and kill each other. You can’t be used by them. The Wen family is best at controlling people’s hearts. They are all smiling tigers. Child, hurry up and leave!”

The old woman pushed me.

I held the old woman’s skinny hand. “I want to know about the Tong family.”

The old woman was anxious. “The truth will come out eventually. The most important thing now is to save your life. Save your life, Save the Phoenix Blood, and save the foundation of the Tong family! Good Child, you should leave quickly.”

Footsteps suddenly came from outside.

I knew that I couldn’t stay any longer.

The son suddenly pointed in another direction. “Go up from there. There’s a secret door. You won’t bump into anyone.”

I looked at him in surprise. He lowered his voice. “Please take care of my sister.”

I nodded solemnly. The moment before the footsteps came down the stairs. I dashed towards the path that the son had pointed out to me.

I tried my best to calm my breathing in front of the secret door. I focused my attention and listened to the silence outside. Only then did I gently push. The door quietly opened a crack. I flashed out. The light outside was a little bright. I leaned against the wall and closed my eyes. When I opened them again, there was a smooth wall beside me. Even the patterns on the wallpaper were perfectly aligned.

I couldn’t help but feel amazed.

I looked around and tried my best to remember this position, but I didn’t know if this door could be opened from the outside.

“Do you want to die? Don’t forget that your entire family’s lives are in the hands of the young master!” An angry roar sounded.
