Entering from the secret entrance of the treasure house, there are ancient martial arts practitioners from the Bai family guarding the passage along the way.

Although it is not that easy to cultivate an ancient martial arts master in the ancient martial arts world, the Bai family can be regarded as the best in the entire ancient martial arts cultivation family.

For such a huge family, it is not too difficult to cultivate a group of ancient martial arts masters with pretty good strength.

There are almost countless ancient martial arts practitioners in the Bai family today.

After all, even ordinary people can become a formal ancient martial arts practitioner as long as they can obtain the cultivation techniques and spend a certain amount of time. Cultivating yellow-level ancient martial arts practitioners will hardly consume too much cultivation resources.

Even some servants from the Bai family can already have the strength of the yellow level.

However, if you want to continue to cultivate above the yellow level, you need to consume a certain amount of cultivation resources.

Unless you are some extremely talented geniuses, you must spend a certain amount of cultivation resources if you want to practice and break through to the mysterious level.

Therefore, ancient martial arts practitioners above the Xuan level can already be considered middle-level existences in the entire ancient martial arts cultivation world.

However, for the Bai family, there are many of these lowest-level cultivation resources for the Bai family, so there are at least hundreds of Xuan-level ancient martial arts practitioners in each generation.

Especially now, Bai Zhanyuan is ambitious, and the entire Bai family has become one of the top ancient martial arts cultivation families in this generation.

For such an ancient martial arts cultivation family, the number of ancient martial arts cultivation masters in the family is naturally more than other ancient martial arts cultivation families.

However, the real strength of the Bai family will never be known to outsiders. Even Ouyang Guanhai, who is also the top master in the ancient martial arts cultivation family, may only have a slight understanding of the specific strength of the Bai family.

Just these ancient martial arts masters who appeared in the treasure house at this moment, many of them were never seen by Bai Qiumei.

If you calculate the number of people, there will be at least hundreds of Xuan-level ancient martial arts practitioners here, and even more than a dozen earth-level ancient martial arts practitioners hiding in the dark.

However, Bai Qiumei is not surprised by such a situation.

After all, she is the eldest lady of the Bai family. Although she doesn't know the true strength of the Bai family, she at least has a rough impression.

If it were the past, Bai Qiumei would not have had any trouble in her heart when she saw so many ancient martial arts practitioners, but now she was really guilty.

Looking at so many ancient martial arts practitioners, Bai Qiumei could also realize how much attention the Bai family attached to the fact that the treasure house was robbed. With such emphasis, it was not so easy for him to get away with it.

After following Bai Wenxin and the old butler Mr. Hu into the treasure house, Bai Qiumei's thoughts changed rapidly and she was thinking about how she should escape the blame.

Although she had already made plans before this, she still needs to think carefully about whether there will be any loopholes.

In the hall of the treasure house, Bai Zhanyuan stood in the center of the hall with a gloomy face. There were more than a dozen ancient martial arts practitioners around him searching for clues in the hall.

Seeing the old butler, Mr. Hu and others walking into the hall, Bai Zhanyuan then raised his head gently, looked at the people in front of him calmly, and asked in a deep voice: "What are you here to do?"

The old butler, Mr. Hu, stood respectfully in front of Bai Zhanyuan and said softly: "Master, the eldest lady's maid has disappeared mysteriously these days and I don't know where she is going. Perhaps it is related to the stolen treasure house this time."

Hearing that it was related to the stolen treasure house, Bai Zhanyuan became a little more interested, narrowed his eyes slightly, looked at Bai Qiumei, and asked calmly: "Hasn't your maid been very honest all the time? If it weren't for this, I wouldn't allow you to use your own cultivation resources to practice for that maid."

When Bai Zhanyuan said, Bai Qiumei's heart suddenly became slightly tighter, but she subconsciously breathed a sigh of relief.

It seems that Bai Zhanyuan has always known that Bai Qiumei uses the cultivation resources distributed to her family to assist the maids in her cultivation, which is actually contrary to the Bai family's family rules.

However, although Bai Qiumei is the eldest lady of the Bai family, her cultivation talent is not satisfactory. Over the years, she has only been stuck at the peak of the fifth level of the Xuan level. She has never been able to break through to the level of the earth level. If the excess cultivation resources continue to be used, there is no use, so Bai Qiumei will distribute her cultivation resources to her maid.

In fact, many people know about this matter, but no one cares too much. Even Bai Zhanyuan seems to be a little disregarded when talking about this matter at this moment.

Bai Qiumei was silent for a moment before she spoke softly: "We were on a trip, and I don't know what she did, but she disappeared halfway through. I waited for her for two days, but still found no trace of her. Then I rushed back to the family. However, the location of the treasure house has always been the top secret in the family. Even I only knew a rough idea and could not confirm the location of the treasure house. I think my maid should not know this secret."

Bai Zhanyuan nodded gently, pondered for a while, and then said softly: "In my opinion, this matter should have nothing to do with the stolen treasure house. Only a very small number of people know the location of the treasure house. Not to mention a mere maid, even a direct child can rarely know the specific location of the treasure house."

"What's more, with the strength of that maid, she has no way to break through the defense of the treasure house, and even the corridor outside cannot pass through, so it is even less likely to be the opponent of the two masters guarding the treasure house."

Hearing Bai Zhanyuan say this, the old butler Mr. Hu nodded slightly, but after pondering for a moment, he still spoke softly: "Master, I think it's better to investigate this matter carefully. After all, this maid has been in our Bai family for so long. Over the years, she has a certain understanding of the internal situation of our Bai family. If she is bribed by outsiders, it may be unfavorable to our Bai family. Even if there is no treasure house stolen, this matter should be taken a little attention."

Bai Zhanyuan nodded gently, waved his hand casually, and said softly: "I will leave this matter to Wenxin. After the investigation is found, I will report it to me. The most urgent thing now is to find out who robbed our Bai family's treasure house."

Several people also nodded one after another. The old butler, Mr. Hu, came here with Bai Wenxin and Bai Qiumei, not only because of the maid Bai Qiumei, but more because they were worried about the situation in the treasure house and wanted to help.

Bai Zhanyuan naturally knew what the three of them were thinking, so he did not point it out, but instead showed a bit of relief.

When the old butler Mr. Hu saw Bai Zhanyuan's gloomy face, he didn't dare to say anything. He looked around in this treasure house with Bai Wenxin and Bai Qiumei.

After a long time, more than a dozen ancient martial arts practitioners who searched for clues returned to Bai Zhanyuan and reported their discoveries to Bai Zhanyuan in turn.

But with their report, Bai Zhanyuan's face became even more gloomy.

Because there was no trace in the entire treasure house hall, all the traces seemed to have been eliminated completely. Even the bodies of the two ancient martial arts practitioners guarding the treasure house were not found, leaving only a pool of water.

After listening to their report, Bai Zhanyuan's gaze suddenly showed a sense of anger.

Over the years, the Bai family, as the most important existence in the ancient martial arts cultivation family, has never suffered such a big loss. They only retreat slightly when facing the War God Hall, but have never suffered substantial damage. However, this time, the entire treasure house was looted. Although this is not a damaging force for the entire Bai family, it can also be regarded as a great damage to the vitality.

Although the Bai family has more than a dozen treasure houses, each treasure house corresponds to different levels of cultivation resources and some important items. The most important thing is that Bai Zhanyuan is very clear in his heart that this treasure house is different from other ordinary treasure houses.

There is an extremely mysterious item in the treasure house, which is a family heirloom that has been passed down from all over the Bai family for dozens of generations.

Although over the years, no one knows what role this so-called heirloom has.

However, this is also an extremely important item for the Bai family, and it is the sheepskin scroll that Chen Ping found in the last stone chamber.

The oracle bone inscriptions written on the parchment paper were naturally well studied by the ancestors of the Bai family, but the information recorded above seemed to have no effect on the Bai family at all.

The ancestors of the Bai family have always wanted to understand what was recorded on this parchment, but they have gained nothing.

Over the years, it is no longer known what role this parchment has.

Therefore, the Bai family did not pay too much attention to this parchment, otherwise they would not have placed it in this treasure house.

But no matter what, this is one of the heirlooms of the Bai family after all. Losing it in the hands of outsiders is equivalent to slapping hard on the face of the entire Bai family. Bai Zhanyuan's face naturally would not look good, and he was even more angry.

However, there were no clues in the entire treasure house, and it was impossible to lock the suspect. In this way, Bai Zhanyuan felt even more depressed.

After a moment of silence, Bai Zhanyuan's eyes suddenly flashed slightly, and he whispered to the old housekeeper Hu, who did you think the person who is the most suspected of this matter?"

Mr. Hu respectfully contemplated for a while in front of Bai Zhanyuan, and then spoke tentatively and softly: "Master, I think since I can't find the clue, I might as well target our Bai family's opponents. Over the years, although there are many opponents in our Bai family, there are not many who can do this. The most important thing is that after so many years, the real enemy has actually fallen to the hands of the Bai family. What remains are just some cats and dogs. What we really need to care about is actually just a few people."
