My Substitute CEO Bride (Nash Calicraft) novel Chapter 377

Chapter 377 

Another woman was left wide-eyed and dumbfounded. 

Bradley, a highly respected figure in the entire neighborhood, was actually kneeling before this young man who was just in his 20s? 

Nash, on the other hand, was not surprised at all. He had suspected earlier that Bradley was at member of the Young family’s Tomb Seekers Hall. Nash had deliberately revealed to him his Young family token when he received the alcohol from him earlier. 

“Old Perry, please get up. There’s no need for formality!” Nash helped Bradley to his feet. Finally, he found a living member of the Young family’s trusted circle. He even turned out to be from the Tomb Seekers Hall. 

The Young family got their wealth from raiding tombs, and the fact that Bradley was the leader of the Tomb Seekers’ Hall indicated he held a high position within the family as well. 

“Grandfather, what’s going on here?” Nico asked with confusion as he looked at his grandfather. This guy had just taken advantage of Yasmin earlier, and Nico had been thinking about teaching him a lesson when the opportunity arose. He never expected his grandfather to kneel before him. 

How was he going to do that now? 

“Ophelia, go get Dacus to buy three coffins,” Bradley instructed, dismissing the woman who had nothing to do with the Ye family. 

Then, he sat down and said to Nash, “Sir, please have a seat.” 

Nash sat down on the nearby sofa. Derek helped Yasmin next to him. 

“Seeing how you’re from the Young family, I suppose you already know who they are.” Bradley continued, “Both Caleb and I were from the Young Family Village. The Tomb Seekers Hall is divided into two branches, the Tomb Hall and the Seekers Hall. 

“The Seekers Hall is responsible for seeking out auspicious burial sites, while the Tomb Hall is in charge of excavating it. When disaster befell the family back then, I happened to be searching for the tomb of the Medicine King in Xanthalos and was following a lead. 

“That’s why I wasn’t able to return to the village in time and escaped with my life,” Bradley said with a bitter expression on his face. 

Nash lit a cigarette and asked slowly, “So, they all went to the King of Medicine’s tomb?” 

His master had mentioned the King of Medicine before. Leopole, a renowned physician from the Northern Dynasty, was not only highly skilled in medicine but had also acquired the Divine Farmer’s Legacy. 

His master had spent three years searching for the King of Medicine’s tomb but never succeeded. Who would have thought that the Tomb Seekers Hall would have managed it instead? 

“The Tomb Seekers Hall started searching for the King of Medicine’s tomb over 200 years ago and only confirmed its location to be in Xanthalos about 30 years ago,” Bradley explained. 

“Other tomb raiders got wind of this information and were keeping a close eye on us, which 

prevented us from making a move. We had no choice but to cooperate with them. We spent several years leading them out of Xanthalos. 

“After the massacre, I went under for more than 20 years. I waited until a few old foxes had passed away before deciding to take a look at the tomb again. Seven days ago, I took my son, my nephew, and a descendant of my old friend’s to the tomb. 

“While digging our way in, we stumbled upon an undead corpse.” Bradley shivered with lingering fear as he recounted. 

“Undead corpse? What’s that?” Xeno gulped and asked, “Could it be the kind of creature I saw on TV? The one without skin and covered in blood?”
