"That's more like it!" Zhang Xuan nodded in satisfaction as he pinched the amulet between his fingers.
Since the amulet was forged using Kong Shi's blood essence, as a Celestial Master Teacher, it went without saying that he would be able to make it submit to him as well.
"…"
Wu Chen widened his eyes in shock.
To be honest, he had seen many things in his life, but the shock that he had received today was more than what he had experienced in his entire life. He had no choice but to accept it.
The amulet forged by Kong Shi was something that even Ancient Sage Qiu Wu and Ancient Sage Ran Qiu did not think much of. For it to submit to him with just a touch … was there anything that he could not do?
However, that wasn't what truly shocked him. Zhang Xuan flicked his wrist after grabbing the amulet, and the most important artifact of Kong shi's treasury, which everyone was vying for, fell lightly into Luo Ruoxin's hands.
"Ruoxin, you should hold onto this Celestial Amulet for now. In any case, it's useless to me. "
"…"
Wu Chen's body stiffened.
The fact that the four of them had tried so hard to snatch the Celestial Amulet from him showed just how valuable it was.
However, what was even more shocking was yet to come.
"This amulet has already acknowledged you as its master, so you can keep it. There's no point for me to keep it … All you have to do is to bring me in when the Temple of Confucius opens! "Lozosy shook her head as she passed the amulet back to Zhang Xuan.
After a moment of hesitation, Zhang Xuan took the amulet with a helpless look on his face and said, "Alright!"
The Great Codex of Spring and Autumn was indeed a formidable artifact, but the Library of Heaven's Path was something that he could do without, let alone a mere amulet.
The main reason he had come here was because of the young lady's invitation. He wanted to spend some time with her and figure out her identity. Now that he knew that she would never do anything that would betray mankind, he did not mind giving the amulet away.
Just that … he did not think that the other party would not care too much about it either.
The Celestial Amulet of Legacy was on the verge of tears.
Not even Ancient Sage Ran Qiu was qualified to tame an artifact forged by the great Kong Shi, and yet, he was being shoved around like that, not even bothering to take it … Don't pull me! Let me knock my head against the wall and die!
Forget it, I'm just a talisman, a piece of paper without a head. I won't die even if I hit it …
Just as Zhang Xuan was feeling stifled, he saw the master whom he had just acknowledged looking at him anxiously, as if a miser.
"Little Amulet, since you've already acknowledged me as your master, are there any other treasures in the ruins? Collect all of them and let me take them away! "
"…" The talisman twisted its body. "Gone …"
"How could it be gone? Weren't there ninety-nine passageways? Since there's a Dragonbone Divine Spear in my passageway, there should be treasures in the other passageways as well, right? "Zhang Xuan asked doubtfully.
"The other passageways are either filled with trials or Killing Formations. There aren't any treasures here …"
The talisman shook.
"No?" Zhang Xuan turned to look at Lozosy and Luo Ruoxin doubtfully, only to see the two of them nodding in response. "The talisman is right. The passageway that we have walked through is a trial, and there aren't any treasures here …"
"I see …" Zhang Xuan was disappointed.
He had thought that there would be treasures on par with the Dragonbone Divine Spear in each of the ninety-nine passageways, but it seemed like he had been overthinking it.
"Right, I need you to pluck out the words' Ran Zi Hall 'from the entrance. That's a good item too!"
Left with no other choice, Zhang Xuan took a step back.
"…" Zhang Xuan.
He had seen stingy people in his life, but he had never seen someone as stingy as this. That was a plaque left behind by Ancient Sage Ran Qiu, and the other party did not even spare a single word …
Other people would toss out swords and spears in battle … and yet, you tossed out a plaque …
…
Paying no heed to the crying Zhang Xuan, Zhang Xuan cleaned out the Ran Zi Hall before walking back with a satisfied look on his face.
It wasn't easy for him to dine on such a rich person, so naturally, he had to stuff himself to the brim.
"Bring us out of here!"
Zhang Xuan instructed Zhang Xuan. The latter's body warped, and the crowd was immediately shrouded in a brilliant light. The next moment, they were already outside the folded space, back at the White Creek Mountain.
"Young Mistress, Zhang Shi, I have some matters that I need to deal with right now, so I'll have to take my leave first. I'll come back to look for you once I'm done!"
As soon as he stabilized himself, Wu Chen clasped his fist and bowed deeply as a hint of worry and anxiety surfaced on his face.
"What happened? Do you need any help? "Zhang Xuan asked.
"It's just a small matter. I'll be troubling Zhang Shi over it, but I'll be able to deal with it myself," Wu Chen replied with a nod.
"That's good …" Zhang Xuan heaved a sigh of relief.
"Un. You can contact me once you're done," Lozosy said with a nod.
"Thank you!" Wu Chen said. With a tap of his finger, a spatial passageway appeared before him, and he leaped right into it. Before long, he had already vanished from the duo's sight.
After Zhang Xuan's departure, Zhang Xuan turned to Luo Ruoxi and asked with a smile, "Ruoxi, what do you plan to do next?"
Now that he had obtained the Prime Amulet, it did not matter much whether he searched for the other amulets or not. All he had to do now was wait for the Temple of Confucius to open and enter.
"I don't have anything on at the moment," Lozosy replied with a shake of her head.
"If that's the case, why don't you return to the Zhang clan with me? I left in a hurry previously, so I'll bring you to meet my parents this time around, "Zhang Xuan said with a smile.
They had finally reunited after such a long period of separation, so naturally, they did not want to separate so soon.
He had just returned to the Zhang Clan and acknowledged his parents. Since they had already confirmed their relationship, he would like to bring her to meet them.
"This …"
Lozosy's fair and flawless face reddened slightly. "I caused a huge ruckus in the Luo Clan and brought you away, resulting in a conflict between the Zhang clan and the Luo Clan … I don't think it's appropriate for us to just let it go like this!"
"What's there to be concerned about? They are very accommodating!"
Zhang Xuan replied with a smile.
Even though the arrival of his parents had come too abruptly, such that he had not called them out yet, he had to admit that the other party doted on him a lot.
Putting everything aside, just the fact that he had caused such a huge ruckus in the Luo Clan back then had affected the reputation of both the Zhang Clan and the Luo Clan. If it had been any other parents, they would have long slapped him to death. Yet, the other party had actually supported him wholeheartedly. Just this fact alone was worthy of respect.
"This …"
With a conflicted look on her face, Luo Ruoxin did not know what she should do.
She could be as cold as ice and as calm as water in any situation. In fact, it did not matter whether the Prime Amulet was in Zhang Xuan's hands or hers … but this matter had left her at a complete loss.
"There's no need to worry. We'll have to meet them sooner or later. Once we meet them, we'll have already established our relationship!"
Knowing that Luo Ruoxin was worried, Zhang Xuan grabbed her hand and said, "Alright, it's settled then. Don't turn me down!"
"I …" Seeing the desire in the other party's eyes, Lozosy hesitated for a moment before nodding in agreement. "Alright then."
"Un." Seeing that Luo Ruoxin had agreed to it, Zhang Xuan suddenly recalled something. "However, before we return, I would like to pay a visit to the Luo Clan."
"The Luo Clan?" Lozosy frowned.
