Chapter 597: Chapter 315: News about Shen Youran_2
However, the “Silver Apple” was hard to co by after all, and Song Chi had decided not to exchange it unless it was a top-rank convertible strange object. He preferred to go without than to make do with an inferior product.
Well, strictly speaking, it was more like an alternative backup, except that during the backup period, he would incidentally see if there could be any unexpected joy.
After the Cangqiong was reclaid, Song Chi planned to continue with his usual daily cultivation tasks, but it was interrupted by an unexpected incident.
Feeling the continuous pulsations of the Seed of Torch in his Ancestral Aperture between his eyebrows, Song Chi grew suspicious.
He knew this ant soone was actively trying to contact him through the local network.
“Could it be Song Yufeng? Or is it from Wang Zhen’s side?”
...
As his spiritual mind fully imrsed into the Ancestral Torch, connecting to the Torch Bureau’s local network, his eyebrows shot up.
“Ansewei, why is she contacting at this ti? Could it be…”
After a brief surprise, a gleam of excitent flashed through Song Chi’s eyes as a surge of excitent rose from the bottom of his heart.
For various reasons, the two had not beco friends yet, and it was clear Ansewei had contacted him by actively searching for him, and her tone was completely inconsistent with their ostensibly unfamiliar relationship.
“Alright then, you sure kept it hidden well, sister!”
Seeing this short ssage, Song Chi instantly understood that the other party had confird his identity.
After all, during his ti on the White Tower Floating Land, his family did not hide their relationship with the Shen family at all, which could be easily elucidated with a little inquiry.
To this, Song Chi didn’t react much. From the mont he initiated contact and asked her to investigate, he was well aware that his identity could not be concealed and did not mind. He was only focused on one thing.
News about the Shen family and Shen Youran.
“To tell the truth, you are not that much better than . Did you manage to find any news about the Shen family?”
“Tsk tsk tsk, you’re just trying to find your little girlfriend, aren’t you? Why hide it and hold back in front of sister? That’s not like the aloof Lord Song Chi we know…”
Song Chi fell silent instantly. He found that every ti he spoke to this woman, it took less than three sentences to beco exasperated.
Before he could respond, Ansewei on the other end sent another ssage with laughter.
“I’m just teasing you. Let’s talk in person, sister here has found so information!”
Song Chi’s heart skipped a beat, and his breathing beca sowhat erratic.
A dozen minutes later, on Star Street, at the Legendary Guild.
As the door to Ansewei’s private office opened, Song Chi walked in and imdiately threw sothing in his hand to the seated Ansewei on the inside.
“tal Attribute Law Fruit, a gift for your last birthday party!”
Catching the Law Fruit emitting a strong tallic mysterious aura, Ansewei’s smile grew even more intense.
The Chenxing Clan’s main cultivation was the Law of tal. This Law Fruit was perfect for her.
“Then, this humble girl thanks Lord Chi of the Seventh Hall for his gift. Long live the Lord…”
Seeing the conversation’s subject seed to shift right away, Song Chi hurriedly said:
“Ansewei, what have you found? What has happened to the Shen family… and is Youran alright?”
Ansewei’s smile quickly faded from her face, and she beca serious:
“The Shen family’s background is intricately entangled, with forces actively obscuring their traces. I didn’t find much information.”
Seeing the urgency in Song Chi’s eyes, Ansewei didn’t beat around the bush and continued:
“The Jiangyuan City Shen family you ntioned is very likely related to Beiqiong Shen!”
“Beiqiong Shen?”
Song Chi was at first puzzled, then his eyes suddenly narrowed.
“The Yaohan Kingdom’s Northern Firmant King?”
Seeing Ansewei nod, a storm surged within Song Chi.
The Beiqiong Shen Family, also known as the Northern Firmant King’s Mansion, was one of the only two non-royal king’s mansions in the Yaohan Kingdom, and one of the kingdom’s three major immortal powers out in the open.
Unlike the Stark Family, they were a truly Immortal Clan. The Star-Annihilating Starship had suppressed the mansion for over twenty thousand years, a true dominator of the Heavenly Disk Galaxy. A single stomp would make the entire galaxy quiver.
If Shen Youran’s family truly belonged to a branch of the Northern Firmant King’s Mansion, then it was clearly not good news for Song Chi.
At the very least, there would be many more obstacles between him and Shen Youran.
Musing over this, the resolve in Song Chi’s eyes gradually fird. Whether it was true or not, he would never step back.
“Can you be sure?”
He looked up again to ask, only to receive a swift shake of the head from Ansewei.
“As I said, there’s not much information available. I only know that over a decade ago, soone from the Beiqiong Shen family was spotted on the White Tower Floating Land. As for whether the Shen family your girlfriend belongs to is connected to them or where exactly they went, that’s all unclear,” she said.
Song Chi’s brows furrowed, his eyes rapidly flickering with thought.
At that mont, Ansewei offered another key piece of information.
“However, there’s so good news. Just before your girlfriend disappeared, she rented a high-level safety deposit box at Baita City’s Chenxing First Bank for fifty years.”
A safety deposit box?
Song Chi suddenly stood up from the sofa, his intuition telling him that this box was most likely left for him by Shen Youran.
The answers he had been desperately seeking were bound to be inside this box.
As for the Chenxing First Bank, acting as the official bank of the Chenxing Principality, it was backed by the Chenxing Imperial Family. The various services under its jurisdiction were indeed trustworthy.
“Since it is a high-level safety deposit box, I don’t have the authority to access it without permission, so it’s still on the White Tower Floating Land. You’ll have to personally make a trip to the Golden Shark Starfield,” she explained.
Song Chi nodded. The Golden Dragon Star Domain wasn’t close to the Golden Shark Starfield, and to jump over using a warship would take at least half a year round trip. This would undoubtedly delay the upcoming opening of the Immortal Realm Continent Fragnt in six months.
But Ansewei had already taken the initiative to get him a Star Gate transport ticket for two days from now, which would save him a lot of ti.
Half a month later, Song Chi successfully arrived outside the White Tower Floating Land.
A strange cruiser descended from beyond the skies, imdiately catching the attention of the Third Rank Torch Captains on the White Tower Floating Land. But Song Chi couldn’t be bothered with them and headed to Baita City with the utmost speed.
In the center of Baita City, the Chenxing First Bank’s branch on the White Tower Floating Land.
“Sir, please enter the withdrawal password!”
As the highest-level safety deposit box, it was naturally equipped with passwords, and more than one.
Song Chi thought for a mont and then began to input.
[Beep, password incorrect. You have four more chances!]
His eyebrows imdiately shot up in surprise.
“Hmm? It’s not the girl’s birthday?”
Thinking it over, he tried to input his own birthday, and the prompt then inford him the password was correct.
Then ca the second password.
This ti he entered Shen Youran’s birthday, and the result was again correct.
As for the final third password, Song Chi chose the day he first awakened and went to Jiangyuan City to et her.
The answer was also correct!
After all three passwords were entered, Song Chi finally retrieved the item Shen Youran had left in the bank from the high-level safety deposit box.
A small chanical box.
Having acquired the chanical box, Song Chi didn’t imdiately try to open it, but instead quickly left the bank, summoned the Cangqiong and soared into the sky, disappearing into the White Tower Floating Land’s horizon in an instant.
At the Zhu Tian Ruins Market, Song Chi toyed with the chanical box in his hands, a hint of a smile in his eyes.
This chanical box appeared to be a special device, also password-protected, and with only one attempt allowed. If the password was entered incorrectly, the box was likely to self-destruct.
However, this posed no challenge to Song Chi.
Because engraved on the side of the box were the words “Starry Night.”
Song Chi pressed a few tis back and forth, and soon the chanical box clicked open with ease.
As for the password he’d entered, it was the day the two of them confird their relationship, a night filled with dazzling stars.
The mont the chanical box was opened, a burst of shining silver light spread out suddenly, and Song Chi squinted his eyes instinctively. Once he’d adjusted, he refocused his attention on the item inside the box.
There was only one object, a token flickering with silver light.
