Chapter 931: Family Heirloom
He could only contact Lord Soulflow before, but later Lord Soulflow gave him a way to contact Lord Jiukong.
Now, his connection with the outside world has been completely cut off.
“Old man Yanzhen, let me take this person away. I’ll question him slowly when I get back,” said Fang Yu.
Yanzhen wanted to refuse, after all, Shangqing was one of the Order.
But remembering what he saw in the divination, he felt a chill throughout his body and answered: “…Alright.”
…
On the way out of the castle, Fang Yu, holding Shangqing with his left hand, suddenly stopped, turned to look at Yanzhen, and asked: “The result of your divination earlier, is there really nothing you can reveal?”
Yanzhen’s expression changed.
When Fang Yu asked this question, he could feel that gaze locking onto him again.
“You’re a nine-star grand mage, surely you can say something?” Fang Yu raised an eyebrow.
Yanzhen thought for a moment and tentatively answered: “Perhaps I can tell you the divination results about your recent situation.”
“Go ahead,” Fang Yu looked at Yanzhen with interest.
“In your fate chart, a yellow star has dissipated, indicating you’ve recently resolved a major issue that has been weighing on your mind for a long time,” said Yanzhen.
As he said this, Yanzhen could clearly feel that the gaze fixed on his back disappeared.
This meant that divinations about recent events could be revealed.
“And on the other side, a black star is flying toward you.” After the threat vanished, Yanzhen’s tone became calmer. “This black star… it’s difficult to define exactly what it is, but I’m inclined to believe it represents a danger… or possibly a powerful enemy.”
“Danger? How dangerous?” Fang Yu asked curiously.
“I cannot determine that, but it definitely exists,” said Yanzhen.
“Fine, what else?” Fang Yu continued.
“I cannot say more. This is the divination result regarding your recent situation,” Yanzhen answered.
Fang Yu narrowed his eyes as he examined Yanzhen, said nothing, then turned and continued walking forward.
“You can’t leave the castle directly with Shangqing, to avoid unnecessary commotion,” said Yanzhen. “Let’s use teleportation instead.”
“Just send me to the entrance,” Fang Yu said.
“Alright,” Yanzhen replied.
…
Zheng Ze was meditating when suddenly he saw Fang Yu appear before him with Shangqing.
“Mr. Fang, this is…” Zheng Ze immediately stood up and asked in confusion.
“This is the result of this trip. Let’s head back now,” said Fang Yu.
Zheng Ze opened his eyes wide, looking at the disheveled Shangqing with surprise and confusion.
He remembered that this Grand Mage Shangqing had a good relationship with his teacher.
But now, how…
“He’s one of the Half-Spirit race,” said Fang Yu.
Zheng Ze’s expression changed.
…
After bringing Shangqing home, Fang Yu handed him directly to Little Fengling.
Since Drachi was taken away and Araks turned to ashes, the arrival of a new person made Little Fengling extremely happy.
Upon discovering this was a real human, Little Fengling became even more excited.
It wouldn’t be much fun if it was like last time with Araks, who wouldn’t make a sound no matter how much he was tortured.
Torture should make the other person cry and beg – that’s what makes it satisfying.
“Master, thank you for your trust in me. I will take good care of him!” Little Fengling gave Fang Yu a formal bow.
“Don’t kill him. This person is important,” said Fang Yu.
…
“Mr. Ye, a Mr. Lin is requesting to see you,” Ye Xingxue said as she approached Fang Yu.
“Which Mr. Lin?” Fang Yu frowned.
“He says he’s Lin Zhengxiong from the Lin family of North Capital,” Ye Xingxue replied.
“Lin Zhengxiong?” Fang Yu recalled this person.
A few days ago, he seemed to have visited once, bringing along a girl who wasn’t quite right in the head.
“What does he want with me?” Fang Yu asked.
“He says he wants to invite you to his home. He has a family heirloom that he would like you to appraise,” said Ye Xingxue.
“Family heirloom? What does that have to do with me?” Fang Yu asked, puzzled.
Ye Xingxue smiled gently and said: “Mr. Fang, you’ve recently become quite famous in North Capital. Many families want to establish good relations with you.”
Fang Yu scratched his head.
He didn’t know who had revealed his home address to this Lin Zhengxiong.
This person kept coming around whenever he had free time, which would eventually attract the attention of other families.
Since that’s the case…
“Fine, I’ll go out for a while,” said Fang Yu.
As he prepared to leave, Fang Yu looked at Ye Xingxue standing beside him and said: “Come with me.”
Ye Xingxue was startled for a moment, then smiled and nodded repeatedly.
…
Lin Zhengxiong stood in front of the main gate, pacing back and forth.
He had gone to great lengths to obtain Fang Yu’s address, putting him ahead of other noble families!
If he couldn’t seize this opportunity to establish a connection with Fang Yu, this advantage would be wasted!
So, even though their last meeting hadn’t left a good impression, Lin Zhengxiong still came again, thick-skinned!
For him, a powerful person like Fang Yu was completely worth sacrificing face and dignity to befriend.
Just in case, Lin Zhengxiong didn’t bring Lin Zhilan with him this time.
Moreover, he had brought out the Lin family heirloom as a meeting gift.
Although the Lin family had several heirlooms, each one was priceless.
Offering a family heirloom to please a top-tier expert was definitely a profitable deal.
However, why was there still no response?
Just as Lin Zhengxiong was growing anxious with waiting, the front gate slowly opened.
Fang Yu and Ye Xingxue walked out.
Seeing Fang Yu, Lin Zhengxiong’s expression changed. He immediately ran forward and respectfully said: “Great Master Fang, I am Lin Zhengxiong. I’m truly sorry about last time. My daughter…”
“Stop the nonsense. Didn’t you say you have a family heirloom? Bring it out quickly,” said Fang Yu.
“Uh… I need to return to our Lin family home first before I can retrieve it for you to see… because the family heirloom is always locked in the Lin family treasury,” Lin Zhengxiong said, his eyes shifting slightly.
Fang Yu had already anticipated Lin Zhengxiong’s answer and smiled, saying: “Fine, then I’ll go with you to the Lin family.”
…
Half an hour later, Fang Yu and Ye Xingxue arrived at the Lin family residence.
The Lin family mansion was a completely modern-style residence.
Lin Zhengxiong, visibly excited, led Fang Yu toward the main building.
Regardless of anything else, getting Fang Yu to visit his home was already an extremely successful step!
Indeed, only treasures could attract the attention of these powerful experts!
“Master Fang, Miss Ye, please have a seat here. I will immediately go fetch the family heirloom for Master Fang to appraise,” Lin Zhengxiong said, gesturing for the family maid to come forward and pour tea.
Then he hurriedly left.
Fang Yu and Ye Xingxue sat down on the sofa in the living room.
The hall was very quiet. Apart from the maid preparing tea, no one else could be seen.
“It seems the Lin family isn’t very prosperous. We hardly saw anyone on our way in,” said Fang Yu.
“The Lin family ranks second among the eight great families of North Capital. Logically, they shouldn’t have few members… Perhaps the head of the Lin family sent people away deliberately to meet you?” said Ye Xingxue.
“Is there any need to go to such lengths?” Fang Yu shook his head slightly.
“Mr. Fang, are you really interested in the Lin family heirloom?” Ye Xingxue asked softly.
“Not at all,” said Fang Yu. “So later I’ll find an excuse to criticize his family heirloom, then warn him not to come looking for me again. Wouldn’t that solve the problem once and for all?”
Ye Xingxue covered her mouth and laughed softly, saying nothing more.
About fifteen minutes later, Lin Zhengxiong hurriedly returned, holding a palm-sized box of antique bronze color.
“Mr. Fang, this is our Lin family heirloom, with a history of nearly three thousand years,” Lin Zhengxiong said, presenting the box to Fang Yu with both hands.
Fang Yu took the box and immediately sensed a familiar aura inside.
The moment he felt this aura, Fang Yu’s expression changed.
He opened the box and saw a token inside.
The token was black and gold, with the character “Lin” engraved on it.
Fang Yu took out the token and turned it over… and saw two characters on the back.
Batian.
And the aura contained within this token was none other than Xuanran energy!
This… can’t be?
“I… damn,” Fang Yu stared blankly at the token in his hand, then looked up at Lin Zhengxiong.
Could it be… that Lin Zhengxiong before him, and the Lin family… were descendants of Lin Batian!?
