Fantasy: Empress Wife, Cute Kids Cause Havoc in Jiuzhou-Chapter 185 - 183: Don’t be afraid, I’m just here to empty the Hidden Skill Pavilion
In the tunnel after leaving the underground Treasure Pavilion, Chu Chen asked, "Sister, where do we go now? Shall we check out the treasure storage we found before?"
His large eyes sparkled with excitement, seemingly not yet satisfied.
Roar!
The two-headed piglet also let out a dragon’s roar in response.
Chu Xin thought for a moment, shook her head, and said, "No, we can’t just leave like this. That big liar has deceived us for so long, merely taking a bit from the Treasure Pavilion isn’t enough to appease me. Plus, did you not hear just now? That wicked woman wants to tear us into pieces, which is too bad. So, we must take everything that’s most precious to them."
"Great, great, great, I love moving stuff the most, um, just a bit less than roasting meat," Chu Chen said, clapping his chubby little hands in excitement.
Roar!
The two-headed piglet let out another dragon’s roar in agreement, its two little pig heads shaking as if they couldn’t wait to start.

"First, we need to capture someone to interrogate."
With that said, Chu Xin started digging upward with a little shovel.
"Okay!"
Chu Chen also began digging with his little shovel, joining the excavation team, while the two-headed piglet dug with its small claws.
Pfft!
As they broke through the tunnel, a sliver of light shone down. Chu Xin poked her dusty little head out, looked around, and just happened to see a patrol team riding on fierce Demon Beasts passing by not far away.
She retracted her head and applied a Talisman to conceal the hole. After the patrol passed, she quietly emerged, knocked out the last person and his mount, the Demon Beast, and dragged both of them into the tunnel.
"Brother, use the Array Stones to set up a Guardian Formation around this entrance so no one can get in. Then kill that Demon Beast, and try not to make too much noise," Chu Xin commanded.
"Roger that!"
Chu Chen nodded, threw out several Array Stones, and set up a Magic Array Barrier around the entrance, just like the one at the Treasure Pavilion. He then unleashed a slash of Sword Energy that killed the fierce Demon Beast and stowed its body in the Sumeru Ring.
Afterward, he turned his head to see his sister Chu Xin applying a Truth Talisman to the patrol disciple. He couldn’t help but ask, "Sister, is this Truth Talisman going to work on him? It won’t be useless like with that big liar, will it?"
Chu Xin paused and said somewhat uncertainly, "It shouldn’t be, right? That big liar seems to have a high status. The means to ignore Holy Level Truth Talismans and Oath Talismans surely can’t be possessed by everyone. This is just an ordinary disciple; it should work."
"I see," Chu Chen said, nodding in apparent understanding.
Chu Xin then woke up the patrol disciple and asked, "What is the most precious place in the Cangzhou Prefecture?"
"Hidden Skill Pavilion!"
The disciple responded in a daze, his eyes vacant and speech wooden.
"In which direction is it?"
Chu Xin asked again.
The patrol disciple looked around but did not respond.
Chu Chen wondered, "Sister, did it fail again?"
After thinking it over, Chu Xin climbed back to the entrance, looked around to ensure no one was there, then leapt into the air with the patrol disciple and asked again, "In which direction is the Hidden Skill Pavilion?"
This time, the patrol disciple turned and pointed north, woodenly saying, "Ten li to the north."
Following his direction, Chu Xin murmured, "Ten li? How far is that? Never mind, the Scripture Pavilion should also have a Guardian Formation. Once we dig into the Magic Array Barrier, we will definitely reach it."
She then looked at the patrol disciple and mumbled to herself, "What should I do with this guy? If I let him go, he might alert others. Taking him with us would slow us down. Hmm, I’ll just tie him up here."
Deciding that, she tossed out a few Talismans, which turned into chains to tie up the patrol disciple. She threw him to the side inside the tunnel, picked up her little shovel, and said, "Brother, dig this way!"
"Okay!"
Chu Chen nodded, and soon after, the siblings started madly digging with their little shovels, while the two-headed piglet floated in the air, vigorously flapping its two small Dragon Claws, rapidly scooping up dirt.
Bang!
After a while of digging, a muffled sound transmitted from under the shovel.
"We’re here."
Chu Xin’s eyes lit up. The only thing that could stop a Treasure Digging Shovel was a Magic Array Barrier.
"Sis, the strength of this Magic Array Barrier is almost comparable to that of the Treasure Pavilion. Should we just break through it directly?"
Chu Chen cleared the nearby soil and touched the Magic Array Barrier. After sensing it for a moment, he turned his head and asked.
Yin!
The two-headed piglet let out a dragon’s chant, waving its little Dragon Claws as if eager to try.
"No, that would alert the bad guys ahead of time. If a Martial Emperor arrived, we wouldn’t have any time to empty out the Hidden Skill Pavilion."
Chu Xin shook her head in refusal. Then she took out a Magic Array Compass and, after probing for a moment, pointed to the left and said, "Brother, dig this way."
"Sure thing!"
Chu Chen, wielding his small shovel, and the two-headed piglet continued to dig, with Chu Xin guiding the direction with the Magic Array Compass.
"Stop! This is the weak point of the Array."
Chu Xin put away the Magic Array Compass into the Sumeru Ring, took out a Talisman, and affixed it to the surface of the Magic Array Barrier.
Weng!
The Talisman’s energy surged, infiltrating the Magic Array Barrier and, after a moment, a crack extended at the weak point of the barrier.
"Keep digging!"
Behind the Magic Array Barrier, there was still soil; the Barrier was a sphere encapsulating the entire Treasure Pavilion.
The siblings continued to wield their small shovels, passing through the crack and starting to dig upward after creating a tunnel large enough to pass through.
Puchi!
A moment later, the tunnel broke through. Chu Xin poked her mud-covered head out to look around and saw that the Hidden Skill Pavilion was full of people reading books.
She quickly retracted her head and whispered, "Brother, there are a lot of people in the Hidden Skill Pavilion. Let’s dig out the Array Base Treasures first, then use Array Stones to set up an Array. We can’t let any sound escape, nor can we let them leave."
"No problem!"
Chu Chen nodded. Afterwards, the siblings took out puppet mice to search for the Array Base Treasures. Once they located the treasures, they dug straight to them. After obtaining the Array Base Treasures, the Guardian Formation of the Hidden Skill Pavilion was disabled.
"What’s going on? The Formation suddenly disappeared?"
An elder with white hair was cultivating on the top floor of the Hidden Skill Pavilion. Suddenly sensing the Guardian Formation’s failure, he stood up in surprise, wanting to investigate.
Weng!
Just at that moment, an even stronger Array rose up, encompassing the entire Hidden Skill Pavilion within it.
"Not good!"
The face of the Guardian Elder changed as he extended a hand to tear through space, intending to escape, but found that the space had been locked down, unable to be traversed.
He tried to fly out of the window but was repelled by the Magic Array Barrier and bounced back.
"Who is it? Show yourself."
The Guardian Elder shouted angrily.
"Quiet!"
A childish voice rang out behind him. He instinctively turned around to attack, but it was too late.
Chains crisscrossed in the air, swiftly binding him tightly, leaving him unable to mobilize either his True Qi or the Power of Laws.
"A brat?"
At that moment, he finally saw the face of his assailant. It was a child wearing a phoenix-shaped mask, three feet tall, and his expression suddenly changed.
He hadn’t expected that the brat the entire Cangzhou Prefecture was after could silently invade the Hidden Skill Pavilion. What on earth did he want to do?
Chu Xin formed a giant hand and, holding the Guardian Elder, arrived at the third floor of the Hidden Skill Pavilion. Facing the astonished Cangzhou Prefecture disciples, she grinned and said in a sweet, child-like voice, "Don’t be scared, I’m just here to empty out the Hidden Skill Pavilion, I won’t hurt anyone."
