The feeling of being able to cultivate again made him feel very comfortable, very at ease!
Su Chen continued cultivating until eleven o'clock, then stopped and went upstairs to shower and sleep.
The so-called "absence makes the heart grow fonder," and naturally, their night was filled with passion, leaving many marks from each other on their bodies!
The next morning, the two ca downstairs looking vibrant and refreshed.
Especially Lin Ruoxue, she was glowing, as if she had been nourished...
Lin Ruoxue's noticeable change caught the attention of others, who couldn't help but give her an extra look, which made Lin Ruoxue feel a bit embarrassed.
Su Chen didn't mind, cheerfully greeting everyone with a "good morning" before sitting down to eat breakfast.
After breakfast, Lin Ruoxue and Yan Xi drove to the company separately, while Su Chen didn't go to the company but drove to the manor, where it was undeniably more convenient to cultivate.
With great difficulty, he finally resud cultivating, and Su Chen's enthusiasm was naturally high!
Previously, he had worried about it for quite so ti!
As soon as Su Chen started cultivating, he quickly regained that mysterious yet familiar feeling.
Once imrsed in cultivation, he completely lost track of ti, and before he knew it, it was already afternoon.
After finishing his cultivation, Su Chen couldn't help but look again at the pitch-black ring in his hand.
Why did those people from the Island Country want to seize this ring? What is so strange about it?
He examined it and then took the ring off to observe. After the change, the ring fit perfectly, not tightly constricting his hand.
He discovered that the inner circle of the ring also had so tiny patterns, and it seed to have two characters, extrely small.
He took a closer look and found the two characters were "Cang Yue!"
.....
anwhile, in a certain place in the Island Country, there was an ancient building.
In one of the rooms of this building, a row of n knelt there.
These n were the ones attempting to seize Su Chen's ring yesterday; their faces were pale, clearly not yet recovered from their injuries!
A man of undiscernible age sat above them, with a solemn face and emitting a terrifying aura of sinister energy!
"Can you confirm it's the Cangyue Ring?"
His chilling voice rang out, as if it ca from the Netherworld!
"This subordinate isn't sure, it just looked very much like the one you showed us in the data, Ghost Master."
One of the n said, trembling.
"If that's the case, why did soone else buy it first?"
The man above asked coldly.
"Subordinate, subordinate wasn't sure, so I thought we could all co and see if it really was."
The man was already sweating coldly, his face filled with fear.
"Fool!"
The man above suddenly shouted coldly:
"Couldn't you have bought it first before talking?"
"Yes, it was my mistake, subordinate admits!"
The man bowed his head to admit his mistake, feeling extrely frustrated!
He had no idea such an inconspicuous ring would be bought in the short ti he left.
He thought even if it sat there for a month, no one would ask about it. Actually, he was quite unlucky; under normal circumstances, no one would buy it, or else the owner wouldn't have sold it for just 100,000 at an antique fair.
Yesterday just happened to be Xiao Yaning wanting to give Su Chen a gift, and besides that ring, there seed to be nothing else suitable at the scene.
Xiao Yaning certainly wouldn't give him antique calligraphy, paintings, or porcelain, right? Apart from that ring, the only other option was jade.
Su Chen had already given her jade; she wanted to give sothing different. After considering all options, there was only the ring left.
Of course, Xiao Yaning also thought the ring was unique enough!
"Admitting mistakes is aningless!"
The man's voice sounded as if it ca from a place of extre cold, and then he lightly breathed out:
"Co in!"
As soon as his words fell, a woman with long hair draped over her shoulders, wearing a long skirt, walked in, her face a mask of coldness!
"Ghost Master!"
She ca to the side of the man above and bowed, saying.
"I'll give you one more chance. This ti I'll send Qian Ying with you, make sure to bring the Cangyue Ring back to !"
The man above swept his gaze over the kneeling n below and said.
"Rest assured, Ghost Master, with Master Qian Ying's help, we will definitely complete the task!"
The n quickly said, their faces filled with joy!
They originally thought they would be severely punished, or even possibly face death!
Unexpectedly, the Ghost Master not only didn't punish them but gave them another chance!
This was simply delightful!
That's not all; the Ghost Master even dispatched Qian Ying, one of his eight top experts.
With Master Qian Ying's involvent, they were fully confident they could take the ring back from that kid!
"If you fail to seize the opportunity again this ti, all of you will go to Ghost Cave when you return!"
The man's voice sounded again, as if it ca from the Ghost Mansion!
Upon hearing this, the n couldn't help but tremble violently, their souls seemingly shaking with fear!
Even the woman who just walked in reacted likewise!
Evidently, the Ghost Cave is a place that terrifies them greatly!
Then, the man above swept his sleeve and left.
"Master Qian Ying, we're counting on you this ti!"
After the man left, the kneeling n quickly got up worriedly and said to that woman.
"If you don't want to enter the Ghost Cave, just do your job well!"
The woman responded icily.
"Yes, yes, yes, we'll follow Master Qian Ying's instructions in everything!"
The n nodded repeatedly...
......
Su Chen watched the ring for a while but couldn't figure out what was so special about it, so he wore it again.
Then he drove to the Pei Family mansion, of course intending to check how Pei Man was recovering.
Moreover, because he was unconscious he hadn't called in the few days before his return, so he didn't know the current situation!
However, Pei Jian hadn't contacted him, so presumably there were no issues.
When he arrived at the Pei Family mansion gate, the gatekeeper was already well-acquainted with Su Chen, naturally allowing him in without any hindrance.
As Su Chen reached the door to Pei Man's room, she was inside carefully and slowly walking.
Though her steps didn't seem steady, at least she could walk!
Upon hearing footsteps, Pei Man couldn't help but raise her head, and upon seeing Su Chen, a joyful expression imdiately appeared on her elegant and ethereal face!
"Ah!"
Suddenly an exclamation rang out, and Pei Man's body was about to fall.
Pei Jian beside her was also startled, quickly preparing to help, but Su Chen was faster, and Pei Man instantly fell into his arms!
"Fortunately, fortunately, really, you gave a scare!"
Pei Jian said with lingering fear and then looked at Pei Man disapprovingly:
"You shouldn't get this excited just because he's here!"
