Chapter 73 The Gate of Inheritance

Chapter 73 The Gate of Inheritance
After returning to the hotel, Xu Mingxi did not hear the news he wanted from the three elders. The four of them sat there looking at each other.

"Eighth Elder, I'd like to trouble you to go with me to the mayor's house tonight. Perhaps we can find something there."

Xu Mingxi broke the awkward atmosphere. The four of them were even able to attack the Mingdu team, but they gained nothing in this small town.

As night fell, Xu Mingxi and the Eighth Elder changed into night clothes for doing bad things and dropped from the sky onto the wall of the mayor's house.

The eighth elder stretched out his hands, and bits of starlight fell from his hands and floated into the mayor's house with the wind.

The mayor and his family were bewitched by the starlight and had no power to resist. They all entered a deeper sleep and would not wake up easily.

The two men walked into the mayor's house and began to look for clues by rummaging through the drawers, but the result disappointed them. This was just an ordinary soul master's home and there was nothing special about it.

Xu Mingxi even touched and knocked everywhere, but there was no such thing as a secret room in the house. Everything seemed to indicate that the mayor was just an ordinary soul master.

"Eighth Elder, let's go back first. The mayor should have nothing to do with the inheritance."

"Okay, Mingxi, don't worry. We still have time and can look for it slowly."

Xu Mingxi returned to the hotel and lay on the bed. He always felt that something was wrong today, but he couldn't put his finger on it. It seemed that he was about to think of it, but it was always just a little short of it. It was really frustrating.

Covering his face with the pillow and closing his eyes, Xu Mingxi emptied his mind and slowly, gradually fell asleep.

"Strange, I didn't practice last night. This shouldn't be the case. Could it be that I've been drifting on the sea for too long and I've become lazy once I've relaxed?"

When Xu Mingxi walked out of the room, he saw three elders standing at the door.

"Elder, what are you doing?"

“Mingxi, there seems to be something wrong with this town. Although our potential has been almost exhausted, we have maintained the habit of practicing at night instead of sleeping for decades.

But something unexpected happened last night. The three of us chose to go to bed at the same time. This is impossible."

The words of the three elders made Xu Mingxi stunned. He had this feeling when he got up, and he thought it was an illusion at that time.

After hearing what the elders said, he immediately realized that there was indeed some discord in the town yesterday. How dare a small town be named after the Sun and Moon? Aren’t they afraid that the noble officials of the Sun and Moon Empire will cause trouble for them?

Moreover, those ordinary residents actually all know that the royal family owns the Sun Spirit and the Silver Moon Spirit. Is this something that ordinary people can know?

There seemed to be something weird everywhere in this small town, so everyone split up and decided to investigate thoroughly today, otherwise they would not feel comfortable staying in this town anymore.

If Xu Mingxi had not considered that the mark led to this place and the people here might all be believers of gods, he would have used some special means long ago. If he could get the inheritance, the death of a few people would not matter.

The three elders each chose a direction, and Xu Mingxi rose directly above the town, overlooking the entire town.

"what."

Xu Mingxi turned around and noticed that the layout of Sun Moon Town was actually a moon half-wrapped in a sun. He felt that he was getting closer and closer to the truth, but he was just one step away from it, and this step might fall on the flags planted in front of each household.

Xu Mingxi fell from a high altitude and immediately picked a lucky person. He came to the front of the flag and observed it carefully. Not daring to pull it out for fear of affecting the inheritance, he even touched it with his hand, and found that the material was no different from that of an ordinary flag.

"Isn't this just an ordinary flag? There's no difference except for the pattern."

pattern?

Xu Mingxi seemed to realize something and immediately rose high into the sky. With a pen and paper in his hand, he recorded the locations of the two flags in the town.

There were the same number of the two types of flags in the town, but their arrangement was random. However, after recording, it was found that the houses with flags formed two patterns in the town, one sun and one silver moon.

Xu Mingxi's eyes lit up. Should he just insert the corresponding flag into the corresponding place? He flew down and was about to take action, but when he was about to touch the flag, he pulled back.

What if the actual situation is not like this? What if the silver moon pattern is inserted with a sun flag? If we make a mistake, we will completely miss out on the inheritance.

Xu Mingxi retracted his hand. He needed to collect more clues to support his guess. Just now, when he took off from the air to observe the town, he found that the mayor's house was at the center of the intersection of the two patterns.

Night gradually fell. Because of the inexplicable sleeping situation last night, everyone decided to give up sleep during this period. No one liked this feeling of being out of control.

The four of them put on their night clothes again, and the three elders searched the houses with flags one by one, while Xu Mingxi came to the mayor's house again.

After knocking the mayor unconscious and searching the entire house again, Xu Mingxi still found nothing. He then turned his attention to the sun flag hanging on the mayor's door.

The material and pattern of this flag were no different from the flags in front of ordinary townspeople's homes. Xu Mingxi stared at it for a long time while suspended in mid-air.

Until the dark clouds dispersed and the moonlight fell on the flag, Xu Mingxi had a flash of inspiration, and the first soul ring lit up. Bits of moonlight essence came down along with infinite starlight and fell on the sun flag.

As expected, seeing a silver moon pattern appear on the flag in front of him, Xu Mingxi rose to a high altitude and exerted his strength to the utmost, and the whole town suddenly became as bright as day.

On the houses at the location of the sun pattern in the town, all the flags turned into sun flags. The sunlight went out, and a ray of moonlight fell from the sky, landing on the flag on the other side, and a silver moon emerged.

The four of them gathered in the center of the town, standing in the sky, watching the white mist pouring out of the mayor's house until it covered the entire town. With their strength, they were completely unable to see anything through the white mist.

Xu Mingxi had been staring at the white mist below, but he sensed something and stretched out his hand, and spots of light interwoven with gold and silver fell on his hand.

He raised his head suddenly and was shocked by the scene in the sky. The scorching sun and the cold silver moon appeared at the same time.

The moonlight and sunlight shone on the white mist at the same time, and the white mist gradually became thinner and slowly dissipated around.

Under the astonished eyes of the four people, the entire town disappeared out of thin air. Golden and silver lights intertwined, and a magnificent gate was constructed in the center of the town. A black vortex in the middle of the gate kept spinning, as if attracting people to go in.
