Chapter 1294: Heavenly Square Cauldron
That blood had seeped into the cracks. If one didn’t take a close look, they wouldn’t be able to see it. The color seed dark and dry as if a long ti had passed.
Shangguan Jing knitted his brows and stared at the jade pendant for a while before reaching out slowly.
A sense of familiarity ca over, and he spoke with much difficulty, “Yes, this is my blood, and… There seems to be a part of my soul sealed in here.”
Chu Liuyue raised her eyes in shock. “Really?”
Shangguan Jing’s translucent hand gently swiped across the damaged jade pendant. “Yes… I used to bring this jade pendant with everywhere. Later… Later… I don’t rember what happened later.”
As he finally reunited with it after such a long ti, his voice was extrely low and slow as if it contained the happenings over a thousand years and a bit of bloody tallic aura. “Before seeing this jade pendant, I actually didn’t recall its existence. And now, I don’t even rember how exactly I lost it.”
Chu Liuyue thought for a mont and guessed, “Ancestor, perhaps you purposely threw this jade pendant?”
If not, why would there be a part of his soul sealed here?
Shangguan Jing didn’t talk for a long ti, and one couldn’t see the depths of his eyes.
Actually, he also agreed with what Chu Liuyue said. When Chu Liuyue previously refined the Chi Xiao Sword’s weapon soul, he shockingly discovered that he wasn’t his last bit of consciousness but a soul!
During this period, he had been thinking about this problem. However, he still couldn’t rember what happened back then.
He further confird his previous doubts when he saw this jade pendant.?I’m indeed still alive!?
Chu Liuyue looked at her ancestor with a complicated gaze. “Ancestor, do you really not rember it at all? Perhaps… it’ll be useful if you rge with the soul piece within the jade pendant?”
Shangguan Jing paused for a mont before slowly nodding. “I’ll try my best.”
His two soul pieces had been separated for a thousand years. It wasn’t that easy to rge them.
Chu Liuyue held the jade pendant in her hands tightly. “Don’t worry. I’ll definitely do my best to help you.”
Ancestor is still alive, and he has found another part of his soul. As long as I find the other pieces of his soul, perhaps I can find the chance to help Ancestor take soone’s body and help him live again!?This thought made Chu Liuyue faintly emotional. “I’ll ask the elder. Perhaps he knows where this jade pendant ca from! If we follow this trail, it’ll be a matter of ti until we can find out what happened back then!”
…
“The background of this jade pendant?” Shang Yulin flipped over the jade pendant in his hands and recalled with furrowed brows for a while. Eventually, he still shook his head. “I don’t know either.”
Disappointnt flashed across Chu Liuyue’s heart, but she asked persistently, “Think about it carefully. Do you really have no clues at all?”
Shang Yulin returned the jade pendant helplessly. “Chu Yue, you also saw that I have many things back there. I don’t even rember when I obtained most of them, let alone their background. As for this jade pendant… I really can’t think of anything.”
Chu Liuyue took the jade pendant and looked down.
Actually, she had long expected this outco. The material of this jade pendant might be considered decent to ordinary people, but it wasn’t very impressive in front of Armory Refinent Masters like Shang Yulin. If not, he wouldn’t have casually thrown it to the hill behind.
He might not even have taken another look at it, let alone others.
“Thank you. Then, I’ll think of another way.”
Seeing Chu Liuyue’s persistence, Shang Yulin felt curious. “Is this jade pendant very important to you?”
Chu Liuyue held the jade pendant tightly and nodded seriously. “This… is my ancestor’s item.”
No wonder.?Shang Yulin imdiately realized sothing. “Since this is so, I’ll return you the jade pendant from today onward. You must take good care of it from now on. Perhaps you’ll be able to find so clues about it one day?”
Chu Liuyue nodded. “Thank you.”
She paused and said, “If there’s nothing else…”
Shang Yulin knew what she was going to say and imdiately agreed. “Nobody can remain calm after finding such an item. It’s better if you go back and rest first.”
Chu Liuyue held the jade pendant tightly, thanked him, and left.
…
On the way back, Chu Liuyue still felt rather dazed. She never thought that she would find the jade pendant Shangguan Jing had lost by just going to Shang Yulin’s place.
The key point was that there was still a part of his soul in it! There was actually such a coincidence in the world! Perhaps this was fate arranged by the heavens?
Chu Liuyue was shocked and felt very lucky, with a feeling of indescribable happiness.?Ancestor is very benevolent toward . If I can help Ancestor revive, it would be for the best!?
“Ancestor, do you know what you need to prepare to rge your soul pieces?” Chu Liuyue asked with uncertainty.
After a mont, Shangguan Jing bood, “I’m afraid it’s even harder than you think.”
Chu Liuyue was dazed. “You’re saying…”
“Back then, I had already built half my God Realm and could be considered a demigod. If you want to rge such a soul, you have to be a Physician at the very least.”
If not, it would be to no avail.?
“Is that so…” Shangguan Jing’s words cald Chu Liuyue down. “Then, it seems like we need a long-term plan for this. But no matter what, it’s already very lucky that we could find your soul.”
Shangguan Jing acknowledged it and fell silent again.
Chu Liuyue knew that he needed so ti now, so she didn’t speak further and didn’t disturb him.
“Chu Yue!” The mont Chu Liuyue reached Qing Ming Square and was about to turn in the direction of Jiuheng Peak, she suddenly heard a familiar voice.
She turned around—it was Luo Yanming.
She smiled and greeted him.
Luo Yanming walked over and said very emotionally, “I finally saw you! Why did you not even co out during this period?”
Chu Liuyue could only find an excuse to hide. “I’ve been busy cultivating recently, so I haven’t really been out… Why? Is sothing wrong? Oh yes… We previously agreed to duel.”
Chu Liuyue lightly slapped her own forehead. “Look at my mory. I was busy and forgot about it!”
Luo Yanming chuckled. “So you still rember—that’s great! However, I’m not looking for you today because of this.”
“Oh?”
“The academy released the Mission Board today, and I planned to go over to take a look at it. Do you want to go together?”
“Mission Board?” Chu Liuyue was dazed. “What’s that?”
Luo Yanming couldn’t help but laugh. “It seems like you really haven’t been out lately. You don’t even know about such a major event. Every season, the academy will release a Mission Board. The one who successfully finishes all the missions first will receive a very substantial reward! Many people are tempted. Are you not going to take a look at it?”
Chu Liuyue was actually not very interested in this as she had enough things to be busy with. But seeing Luo Yanming’s enthusiastic face, she asked, “What mission?”
Luo Yanming’s eyes lit up. “I heard it’s related to the Heavenly Square Cauldron!”
