Finally Found It

"Good, good, good!"

"You kill people, do you?"

"Then I'll make you pay with your life!" the Patriarch of the Qin Family said coldly.

"Fine, then follow me."

Without wasting words, Chen Chang'an's figure flickered as he soared into the sky.

"Hahaha!"

"Reckless fool!"

The Patriarch of the Qin Family didn’t take Chen Chang'an seriously at all, just like Qin Shou before him.

"You came up?"

"Then go back down."

Huh?

What did that mean?

The Patriarch of the Qin Family was utterly confused. What did he mean by "go back down"?

Before he could react, darkness suddenly filled his vision, and he plummeted straight toward the ground.

"So fast?"

"What just happened? What did I miss?"

"Wait… was that an instant kill?"

"Even a peak Golden Immortal Realm expert got obliterated just like that?"

"Chen Chang'an’s strength is terrifying!"

"My heavens, this is the first time I’ve seen a battle between experts end like this. I thought it’d be an intense fight, but who knew…"

"So, why did they even fly up in the first place?"

Why?

The Li Family members couldn’t understand. Why did Chen Chang'an bother with such an unnecessary move?

"Don’t look at me, I don’t know what he was thinking either."

Seeing his clansmen staring at him, Li Yuntian shook his head in bewilderment.

"Senior, why did you do that?" Li Yuntian asked curiously as Chen Chang'an returned.

"Huh? What do you mean?" Chen Chang'an asked, puzzled.

"You had the power to kill him instantly, so why fly up into the sky first?"

"Don’t you think I looked really cool just now?"

Huh?

Cool?

That was the reason?

"That’s it?" Li Yuntian asked, baffled.

"What else?"

"……"

"By the way, the Patriarch of the Qin Family is gone now. The rest of them shouldn’t be a match for you."

"The Qin Family must have plenty of resources and treasures."

"Consider it your lucky day."

"Better hurry before someone else gets there first."

Hearing this, Li Yuntian’s heart stirred.

He was right—with the Patriarch dead, how could the remaining Qin Family members possibly resist the Li Family?

Wouldn’t all of the Qin Family’s resources now belong to them?

"Thank you for the reminder, Senior."

"What are you all standing around for? Follow me to the Qin Family now!"

"Yes, Patriarch!"

Watching the Li Family charge off, Da Huang sauntered over lazily and said, "You’re something else. One sentence, and you sent the Li Family to wipe out the rest of the Qin Family for you."

"What nonsense. The Qin Family’s treasures all go to them, don’t they?"

"You think they can reap rewards without lifting a finger? Nothing in this world comes that easy."

"Xiao Yao!"

"What’s that in your hand?"

Chen Chang'an suddenly noticed that Xiao Yao was holding something glowing—an object that seemed to resonate faintly with his body.

Could this be what he had been searching for?

Startled by Chen Chang'an’s call, Xiao Yao stammered, "I… I don’t know what this is."

"I just thought it looked pretty, so I took it to play with."

"I… I really don’t know."

Seeing Xiao Yao’s nervous expression, Chen Chang'an sighed inwardly. Was he really that intimidating?

"Bring it here. Let me see."

"Okay."

Xiao Yao hesitantly approached and handed the object over.

It was a fragment of unknown material, shimmering with a kaleidoscope of colors, shaped like a pentagon—utterly mystical.

This thing… gave Chen Chang'an the same sensation he had felt when he first encountered the fetal pearl.

"Found it?"

Seeing Chen Chang'an’s expression, Da Huang grew excited.

"Maybe… possibly."

"Xiao Yao, where did you find this? How come I never noticed it before?" Chen Chang'an asked curiously.

"Over there."

"A child was holding it, and I… kind of took it." Xiao Yao chuckled awkwardly.

A child was holding it?

Was it being used as a toy?

"What the heck is this thing?"

"Could it be like the fetal pearl?"

"But that doesn’t make sense. The fetal pearl came from your mother’s womb. So what about this?"

"Did your mother… have a really big belly or something?"

Hearing Da Huang’s words, Chen Chang'an shot him an annoyed glare. There was no way this thing came from his mother.

"This has nothing to do with my mother."

"It’s probably… something left behind by Chen Tian."

That was the most plausible explanation. But what Chen Chang'an couldn’t understand was why his body resonated with it.

"Don’t overthink it. Just test it out and see what it does," Da Huang urged eagerly.

"Alright."

Chen Chang'an focused his mind, and the fragment suddenly transformed into a stream of energy that surged into his forehead.

"It worked!"

"Hahaha, it actually worked!"

"So this really was the thing!"

"Xiao Yao, guess what this does?" Da Huang asked excitedly.

What does it do?

Xiao Yao shook her head. She hadn’t been with Chen Chang'an for long and didn’t even know what the fetal pearl was—how could she guess?

"Come on, don’t be so serious. Take a wild guess."

"I can’t."

"Fine, I’ll guess. I think… it’s a treasure."

Huh?

Xiao Yao gave Da Huang a helpless look. Obviously, it was a treasure. Who didn’t know that?

Meanwhile, after absorbing the energy from the mysterious fragment, Chen Chang'an fell into deep contemplation.

"Oh no, why’s he zoning out now?"

"Did he… lose his mind?"

Seeing Chen Chang'an’s vacant expression, Da Huang panicked. Had Chen Tian set a trap? Was this some kind of scheme?

"Chen Chang'an, can you hear me?"

"Hey, don’t scare me like this."

"What’s happening to you?"

"You—"

"I’m fine."

"I know what this thing is now… and why my body reacted to it."

Relieved, Da Huang and Xiao Yao exchanged glances, their curiosity burning.

What… could it possibly be?

"Well? Spit it out already!" Da Huang pressed impatiently.

"Let’s talk somewhere else. This isn’t the place. We’ll go back first."

"Alright."

Once they returned to their quarters, Chen Chang'an set up a soundproof barrier.

"This cautious?"

"Is it some kind of world-shaking treasure?" Da Huang asked eagerly.

"It is indeed a world-shaking treasure."

"This is… a fragment of the Laws!"
