Although Xia Ruofei spoke in a casual tone, Chen Xuan could not help but look at him with a strange expression on his face.
Originally, he did not understand why his father asked him to bring two Five Sages Tokens to the secular world. He had made various guesses, but he still could not figure it out.
It was not until Xia Ruofei suddenly appeared in the Taoyuan Company that Chen Xuan had a faint understanding.
Since the Taoyuan Company was Xia Ruofei's business in the secular world, Chen Nanfeng must have a deeper meaning for letting him come to the Taoyuan Company to gain experience. Under such circumstances, Chen Nanfeng specifically asked him to bring two Five Sages Tokens. Could it be that Xia Ruofei had a close relationship with the Five Sages Token?
At the auction, Chen Xuan had borrowed Spirit Stones from Xia Ruofei in order to bid for the Five Sages Token.
At that time, Chen Xuan was worried that Xia Ruofei would also want to compete for the Five Sages Token. He did not expect that Xia Ruofei would readily lend him the Spirit Stones after pondering for a moment.
If Xia Ruofei had a deep understanding of the Five Sages Token, or simply knew the secret of the Five Sages Token, how could he give up the Five Sages Token so easily?
Chen Xuan thought about it again. There was another possibility, and that was that Xia Ruofei already had the last Five Sages Token that had not yet appeared.
This was almost a guess that was on the verge of coming out.
Of course, the premise of all this was that Chen Nanfeng still knew about it.
In fact, Chen Xuan's guess was basically the truth. It was even closer to the truth than Xia Ruofei's guess. Chen Nanfeng only thought that Xia Ruofei had recently come into contact with the Five Sages Token. He did not expect that the last Five Sages Token was with Xia Ruofei.
Chen Nanfeng was overconfident because he could sense a weak aura from anyone who had come into contact with the Five Sages Token. If the Five Sages Token was still with Xia Ruofei, even if it was stored in a Storage Ring, the aura would definitely not be hidden from him.
What he did not expect was that Xia Ruofei did not use a Storage Magic Treasure, but a much more advanced Magic Treasure. If Xia Ruofei had not come into contact with the Five Sages Token in the Ring-Tu space for a short while before going to the Gate, he would not even be able to sense that weak aura.
From beginning to end, Chen Xuan did not know what Chen Nanfeng's intentions were. He only vaguely guessed that it had something to do with the Five Saints Token, so when Xia Ruofei appeared, he could not provide more information to Xia Ruofei. However, he did not hide anything about the Five Saints Token.
Of course, that was all.
He did not continue to beat around the bush with Xia Ruofei on the issue of the Five Sages Token.
Chen Xuan did not expect that Xia Ruofei would actually take the initiative to lead the topic to the Five Sages Token today.
For a moment, many thoughts flashed through Chen Xuan's mind.
After pondering for a while, Chen Xuan said, "The three of us once studied the Five Sages Token together, but at that time, we did not have the fourth token. The result of the research at that time … Actually, there was no progress at all. Brother Xia, do you … have any good suggestions? "
Chen Xuan's words were more cautious, but the meaning of probing was very strong.
Xia Ruofei smiled slightly and said, "Brother Chen, I'm just saying this. After all, no one knows if there will be any new discoveries when the four tokens are gathered together. Since your research has not made any progress, why not give it a try? "
Chen Xuan was slightly disappointed, but he faintly felt that Xia Ruofei should not be saying this casually, so he thought for a while and said, "I'll go back and contact my father and ask for his opinion. After all, if we want to gather the other two sects to bring out the Five Sages Token, he will have to come forward. But … Now that the Five Sages Token is with me, it may not be very convenient! "
Xia Ruofei laughed and said, "Brother Chen, you really can't forget this experiential job! You don't want to leave our company that much! Actually, you can arrange the meeting place at the three mountains! That way, nothing will be delayed, right? "
Chen Xuan's mind flashed, and he felt that Xia Ruofei's suggestion was not casual.
However, he did not show it, and only smiled slightly and said, "Brother Xia's suggestion is good! I will seriously consider it. "
After that, everyone tacitly did not mention the Five Sages Token, and the atmosphere was very good as they drank and chatted.
At around nine o 'clock in the evening, Chen Xuan got up and said goodbye.
The reason was that he had to go to work tomorrow, and he had to go back early to rest.
Xia Ruofei and the other two could not help but laugh. Chen Xuan was too immersed in his role!
However, Xia Ruofei was quite impressed with Chen Xuan. He was serious in everything he did and did it to the extreme. It was unreasonable for such a person not to be successful.
Considering that Chen Xuan did not have a car, Xia Ruofei wanted to drive him back.
However, Chen Xuan declined, and directly called for a DiDi.
Therefore, Xia Ruofei and the other two walked him to the entrance of the villa area, and took it as a walk to digest the food.
Xia Ruofei also saw Chen Xuan retrieve his ID card at the entrance of the villa area. He should have taken it here when he entered the villa area. The personnel management of the villa area had always been very strict.
In fact, Xia Ruofei was also very curious about Chen Xuan's ID card, but he was too embarrassed to ask him to take a look.
At the entrance of the villa area, Xia Ruofei and the other two accompanied Chen Xuan for a while, and the DiDi he called arrived. Xia Ruofei looked at it. It was an ordinary Ford Focus. Chen Xuan probably chose an ordinary model to save money.
After waving goodbye to Chen Xuan, Xia Ruofei and the other two walked into the villa area.
Today, the three of them all drank a little, so Song Wei simply decided to stay at Xia Ruofei's house. She called back to have dinner with Ling Qingxue, and then stayed at Ling Qingxue's house.
Song Qiming already knew that Song Wei was already a cultivator like Ling Qingxue, so he was very assured that his daughter was staying outside, and did not send a car to pick her up.
The three of them walked along the beautiful road in the villa area. On the way back, Xia Ruofei saw that the lights in Feng Jing's townhouse were on. Feng Jing should have gone home from work.
However, it was already late, and his two confidantes were by his side, so Xia Ruofei did not plan to visit.
After chatting for a while, Ling Qingxue could not help but ask, "Ruofei, you suddenly invited Chen Xuan to your house for dinner today. Is there a special purpose?"
Xia Ruofei smiled and said, "Take a guess!"
"How am I supposed to guess?" Ling Qingxue said coquettishly, "I was confused when I heard what you were talking about. It felt like you were just chatting! There was nothing substantial about it, but it didn't have much substance to it. However, I don't believe that you would do something meaningless. "
Song Wei pursed his lips and smiled, "Let me guess. Is it related to the Five Saints Token?"
Xia Ruofei looked at Song Wei with some surprise and said, "Weiwei, you're not bad! You're quite sharp! "
"You can even guess that?" Ling Qingxue held Song Wei's arm and asked with interest, "Weiwei, how did you guess?"
Song Wei smiled and said, "It seems that I guessed right. Actually, it's nothing much. I just feel that although you guys haven't talked about the Five Saints Edict for long, your auras are clearly different. Moreover, although Chen Xuan still has a cultured and refined expression, I can feel that he has suddenly become very cautious. I wonder if the Five Saints Edict is more important to him. "
Xia Ruofei gave Song Wei a thumbs up and said, "You're really meticulous!"
"Ruofei, tell us about the Five Saints Token!" Ling Qingxue tugged at Xia Ruofei's clothes and said.
"In fact, I don't know much about the Five Saints Token. However, Chen Xuan came to the three mountains and joined the Taoyuan Company probably for the Five Saints Token. Of course, he may not know that all of this was arranged by Chen Nanfeng," Xia Ruofei said.
Then, Xia Ruofei selectively told Ling Qingxue and Song Wei some information about the Five Saints Token.
After Xia Ruofei finished, even Song Wei could not help but be a little speechless. "Is the Five Saints Token so magical? No wonder even the number one sect in the cultivation world attaches so much importance to it … But, what does this have to do with you? Can you unlock the secret of the Five Saints Token? "
Xia Ruofei smiled and said, "They've been looking for the fifth token. Because of a coincidence, it's already in my hands. It's just that no one knows about it … However, I feel that Chen Nanfeng, the head of the sect, must have smelled something. Otherwise, it's hard to explain why he asked Chen Xuan to come to my company to 'gain experience' and even brought two Five Saints Tokens … I don't know what this old fox is planning. I don't want to waste time, so I might as well lure the snake out of its hole. "
In fact, there was another reason that Xia Ruofei did not mention. According to the pattern that Yuntai Lay told him, the Rising Dragon Token, which was the Five Saints Token of the cultivation world, would mysteriously disappear every three hundred years or so. Then, it would reappear after many years. Now, the token might disappear at any time. Xia Ruofei was also interested in the secret of the token, so he naturally did not want to see such a thing happen.
Therefore, there might be some risks, but Xia Ruofei still needed to combine the five tokens as soon as possible.
It was naturally more convenient for one sect to gather the other two sects than for him to invite them himself.
Moreover, if the meeting place was at the three mountains, it would naturally be safer than going to any other sect.
In addition, Xia Ruofei had the Ring-Tu space and the black flying boat, so he was very confident in escaping. Therefore, he felt that there was no problem taking a little risk.
The three of them strolled and chatted, and soon returned to the villa.
Knowing that Song Wei was going to stay for the night, Xia Ruofei was not ecstatic. He knew very well that if either Song Wei or Ling Qingxue stayed for the night, he would definitely enjoy endless luck with women tonight. However, if both of them stayed at the same time, then he could forget about it.
Sure enough, after returning home, Song Wei and Ling Qingxue directly occupied Xia Ruofei's master bedroom. Xia Ruofei, the owner of the villa, could only bitterly sleep in the guest room.
…
After Chen Xuan took the online taxi back to his rented house, he directly took out a satellite phone from his Storage Ring.
After dialing a string of numbers, the call was quickly connected.
Chen Xuan said calmly, "I'm Chen Xuan … I have something important to discuss with the sect leader … Okay, thank you for your hard work!"
After a few simple sentences, Chen Xuan hung up, then sat aside and waited quietly.
After waiting for about ten minutes, he heard the satellite phone ring.
Chen Xuan picked it up and heard Chen Nanfeng's calm voice from the receiver. "Xuan 'er, why are you calling me so late at night? What's the matter?"
Chen Xuan said respectfully, "Father! I have something to report to you … "
Then, Chen Xuan summarized his successful entry into the Taoyuan Company, then Xia Ruofei's appearance, and so on.
Chen Nanfeng listened quietly. He wasn't surprised.
This was because he had actually sent people to secretly protect Chen Xuan. Of course, Chen Xuan's every move, as well as the things that happened around him, were all clearly known to Chen Nanfeng.
After all, Chen Xuan was his biological son, and also his only son. He was very concerned about Chen Xuan's safety.
In fact, Chen Xuan should have reported it yesterday, but he didn't know how to report it to Chen Nanfeng. Should he question his father? Or should he ask his father if he had any ulterior motives towards the Taoyuan Company or the Star Picking Sect? Obviously, none of these were suitable.
After hesitating for a while, Chen Xuan didn't report it yesterday.
He didn't expect that after delaying for a day, he still had to make this call today. After all, Xia Ruofei's suggestion was really too important for the Yi family. Moreover, it faintly touched on the true reason why his father had sent him to the Taoyuan Company to "gain experience".
After Chen Xuan finished, Chen Nanfeng said indifferently, "I know all this. Xuan 'er, I know what you want to ask, but I can't tell you right now. However, I can make one thing clear to you, and that is that I have no enmity towards Xia Ruofei, nor do I covet his treasures. As for the rest, when the time is right, you will naturally know. "
Chen Xuan secretly sighed in relief. He was sure that his father wasn't lying to him.
As long as the Yi family didn't have any ulterior motives towards Xia Ruofei, then the two sides wouldn't be in a hostile state. This made Chen Xuan feel much more relaxed.
He and Xia Ruofei admired each other, and under normal circumstances, they could become good friends.
Chen Nanfeng continued, "You didn't contact me so late at night because of this matter, did you?"
Chen Xuan came back to his senses and hurriedly said, "Father, there's something else. Today, Xia Ruofei invited me to his house for a meal. During the meal, we talked about the Five Saints Edicts, and it was Xia Ruofei who brought up this topic. "
Hearing this, Chen Nanfeng couldn't help but feel refreshed. He hurriedly said, "Repeat your words to me without missing a word!"
Although Chen Nanfeng had sent an expert to secretly protect Chen Xuan, the expert didn't know what Chen Xuan had entered Xia Ruofei's villa for a meal. After all, Xia Ruofei was also an early-stage Gold Core cultivator, and his mental strength was particularly strong. The middle-stage Gold Core expert sent by Chen Nanfeng naturally didn't dare to unscrupulously approach to investigate. He just followed from the periphery. If Chen Xuan was in any danger, he would be able to rescue him immediately.
Therefore, Chen Nanfeng didn't know what happened between Xia Ruofei and Chen Xuan tonight.
And anything about the Five Saints Edicts was something Chen Nanfeng couldn't wait to know.
What's more, this was a topic that Xia Ruofei, who was very likely to have come into contact with the mysterious fifth token, took the initiative to bring up!
