He didn’t hide that Xiao Yan tried to cheat the stall owner, got caught, and was humiliated by the owner in front of everyone, making a big scene and losing face.

Although it seemed like an apology, Tian Mingzi was actually exposing Xiao Yan’s sinister and despicable behavior right in front of them.

Xiao Hongdou and Qing Xuzi were completely shocked and stunned. They had no idea such a thing happened yesterday.

Xiao Yan hadn’t mentioned anything to them.

Based on Tian Mingzi’s words, it was clear that Xiao Yan was in the wrong, so he was too embarrassed to tell them.

“Damn it, that ungrateful disciple! He never acted like this before…”

“This isn’t Young Master Jiang’s fault; it’s all because of my ungrateful disciple’s own actions.”

Qing Xuzi was already quite dissatisfied with the current Xiao Yan.

Now, hearing these words made him even angrier, feeling a sense of frustration and disappointment.

Xiao Hongdou also looked quite upset and saddened. She never imagined that Xiao Yan would become like this after recovering from his illness.

She had lost all hope in him.

“It’s clear that my junior brother was at fault first. There’s no need for Young Master Jiang to apologize to him. I am truly sorry.”

She couldn’t help but feel apologetic.

In front of Jiang Minghan’s magnanimous demeanor, her junior brother Xiao Yan’s actions seemed narrow-minded and petty.

He even badmouthed Jiang Minghan behind his back, tarnishing his image.

Jiang Minghan gently shook his head and said, “Regardless, my subordinate did harm Miss Hongdou’s junior brother. I failed to manage him properly. I hope Miss Hongdou’s junior brother can forgive us.”

His voice was calm and carried just the right amount of apology.

Meanwhile, in the courtyard.

Listening to all this, Xiao Yan’s face turned pale, and his fists clenched tightly.

He never expected Jiang Minghan to be so despicable. Yesterday, he had his subordinate humiliate and teach him a lesson.

Today, he showed up again, openly exposing the incident in front of his master and senior sister, making him lose face and unable to lift his head in their presence.

“What a vicious mind. What is he trying to do?”

“Does he take pleasure in humiliating me like a cat playing with a mouse?”

Xiao Yan’s eyes were colder than ever. He took a deep breath and forced himself to calm down.

He then walked out of the courtyard with a calm expression, looked at Jiang Minghan, and said, “Yesterday’s incident was my own recklessness. It’s not Young Master Jiang’s subordinate’s fault. I should be the one apologizing.”

Even though he said this, the humiliation and frustration in his heart were known only to him.

“Oh? It seems Xiao Yan is fine. I thought Tian Mingzi’s strike might have injured you badly. I’m relieved to see you’re alright.”

Seeing Xiao Yan come out, Jiang Minghan seemed surprised, then smiled and shook his head.

Things were going as he expected. Xiao Yan’s luck had already dwindled to a blue level, almost reaching green.

These days, his luck had been continuously declining.

Jiang Minghan guessed that Xiao Yan’s luck source relied heavily on his senior sister Xiao Hongdou and his master Qing Xuzi.

Of course, it wasn’t his intention to humiliate and suppress Xiao Yan; it was just a convenient thing to do. His real goal was to let Xiao Yan explore that ominous tomb.

Luck is a mysterious thing.

Having the protection of Heaven’s Will is a great fortune, and Jiang Minghan liked to act with absolute certainty. He didn’t want to take unnecessary risks.

The system hadn’t mentioned what would happen if he killed the child of luck.

Hearing Jiang Minghan’s seemingly mocking words, Xiao Yan felt even more humiliated but didn’t dare show it.

Then Jiang Minghan requested Qing Xuzi to take him to the ancient mine area from 50,000 years ago.

Before exploring the tomb, Jiang Minghan wanted to understand the surrounding environment to avoid unnecessary trouble.

“Young Master Jiang, please follow me. Although the ancient mine area was divided among various forces back then, recently, those forces have sent their disciples away, making it spacious and quiet.”

Hearing this, Qing Xuzi couldn’t help but smile.

After all, that ancient mine area belonged to the Qingxu Sacred Place, left by their ancestors. No matter the purpose, reclaiming it would satisfy him.

Even if he faced many predecessors in the afterlife, he could rest in peace.

“Master, are you and Young Master Jiang going to the ancient mine area?” Xiao Hongdou was extremely surprised.

She believed that the ominous things they dug up from that mine area had led to the decline of Qingxu Sacred Place from its peak.

Even after 50,000 years, no one had figured out what those ominous things were.

Wouldn’t it be dangerous to go there?

Qing Xuzi laughed and said, “Hongdou, don’t worry. I’m just troubling Young Master Jiang because some forces are still unwilling to leave, so I had to ask Young Master Jiang to step in.”

He said this to comfort Xiao Hongdou.

He couldn’t tell her about the secret of the ominous tomb that the former sect master of Qingxu Sacred Place had dug up.

However, Xiao Yan’s eyes lit up, thinking Qing Xuzi’s words had hidden meanings. This trip wouldn’t be simple.

He had tried to get Qing Xuzi to reveal the secrets of Qingxu Sacred Place before, but Qing Xuzi had kept silent.

Now, it seemed that secret was related to the ominous event from 50,000 years ago.

“Jiang Minghan must be here for this. That’s his real goal…”

At this moment, Xiao Yan’s expression changed, feeling more certain.

Then several clouds of mist rose from the ground.

Qing Xuzi led the way, turning into a divine rainbow and leading Jiang Minghan to the edge of the Shenxu Ancient Mine.

The place wasn’t far from Nanque Sacred City. With their cultivation levels, it wouldn’t take half a day to get there.

The Shenxu Ancient Mine was shrouded in layers of mist all year round, with a vast interior.

Rumor had it that this ancient mine had existed for an incredibly long time, even before the birth of the myriad races, created by some unknown existence.

Even in broad daylight, the depths were hard to illuminate.

As a well-known life-forbidden zone on this ancient life star, the area outside the Shenxu Ancient Mine was also full of dangers. Majestic mountains, with ominous energy reaching the sky, filled with fierce beasts and demons roaring.

The mountain ranges undulated like dragons, with hills and barren plains in the distance. Some ancient blood lakes emanated a strong scent of blood.
