Ye Xiaochuan paced slowly, running his fingers on the bookshelf, apparently trying to find a book he liked to read.
However, he was not aimless, his footsteps kept moving in the direction of the wooden box.
Soon, he came to the bottom of the bookshelf where the wooden box was.
Since the books here are all very rare and unique, some books that are not easy to preserve are placed in wooden boxes.
There are hundreds of wooden boxes on the bookshelves.
However, Ye Xiaochuan happened to be standing under the wooden box where the Mysterious Fire Token was stored, which made Shen Congjun even more certain that Ye Xiaochuan was here for the Mysterious Fire Token.
But there was one thing she couldn't figure out. Guan Shaoqin gave the Xuanhuo Token to her for safekeeping, and it was she who placed the Xuanhuo Token in the wooden box.
It can be said that I am the only one in the world who knows which wooden box the Mysterious Fire Order is in, and absolutely no other person will know.
Ye Xiaochuan seems to have already known the location of the wooden box, which is very unreasonable.
Naturally, Shen Congjun didn't believe that Ye Xiaochuan or Ye Cha had the ability to read their own memories.
At this moment, she seemed a little confused. Was it just a coincidence that Ye Xiaochuan walked under the wooden box of the Xuanhuo Order?
As soon as I had this thought, the next moment I realized that I was overthinking it.
Ye Xiaochuan ignored the other wooden boxes and directly reached out to the wooden box containing the Mysterious Fire Token.
Seeing this scene, Shen Congjun no longer had any doubts.
When Ye Xiaochuan's hand was about to touch the wooden box, she could no longer remain silent.
He opened his mouth and said: "Master Ye, please stop."
Ye Xiaochuan turned around, but his hand still stretched out towards the wooden box and did not retract it, blinking his innocent Kazilan peach blossom eyes.
Said: "We are all scholars, Senior Shen wouldn't be so stingy."
Shen Congjun said calmly: "Master Ye wants to read a book. Master Ye can read or take away the millions of books in this library at will, but the wooden box cannot be touched."
Ye Xiaochuan pretended to be puzzled and said, "Why? Are the books in this book box different from other books?"
Shen Congjun stared at him, a sharp cold light flashing in his clear eyes.
She did not answer Ye Xiaochuan, but asked: "There are so many books in the library, why does Mr. Ye want to read the books in this bookcase?"
Ye Xiaochuan smiled and finally retracted his hand.
Said: "Senior Shen, let me tell you a story. Many years ago, there was a very big family. A thief appeared in the family and stole a very important treasure in the family.
Later, the traitor changed his identity, concealed his name, and started a new business.
Now a few people from that big family have found out the whereabouts of the traitor and also found out the treasure that was stolen by the traitor.
After so many years, the people of the big family no longer want to enforce the family law on the descendants of the traitor, but just want to quietly take back the treasure that should belong to them. Is this wrong? "
After Ye Xiaochuan finished speaking, he asked Ye Cha in his heart: "Grandpa Tian, can Shen Congjun have any other meaning in the story I told?"
Ye Cha hummed: "You just have to name me. Even if you say it a hundred times more cryptically, she can still hear it. Do you really think that the Sumeru realm fell from the sky?"
Shen Congjun naturally knew the meaning of this story. The big family was the Holy Fire Sect, and the traitor was the Fire Fairy. She changed her appearance and became the Piaomiao Fairy, and started a new business to create the Piaomiao Pavilion.
She really might as well not know the meaning of this story.
Now it is absolutely certain that Ye Xiaochuan has already mastered all the secrets about the Xuanhuo Order.
He even knew which wooden box the Xuanhuo Token was placed in.
This caused a trace of panic to rise in Shen Congjun's heart.
Although she is now a great Sumeru who transcends the world, she is still a disciple of Piaomiao Pavilion, and the interests of Piaomiao Pavilion must come first in everything.
If the identity of the first generation founder of Piaomiao Pavilion is exposed, then Piaomiao Pavilion will not be able to survive in the future.
A 3,500-year-old foundation will fall apart and be destroyed in an instant.
There are only two paths before Shen Congjun now.
The first way is to kill Ye Xiaochuan and silence him.
It is said that Ye Xiaochuan is an unbeatable Xiaoqiang and is born in the year of cat. However, in front of Shen Congjun, he is still a small role. He can take Ye Xiaochuan's head within ten moves.
It's easy to kill someone, but can you really kill someone?
If Ye Xiaochuan still told this secret to the senior officials of Guixuanzong, once Ye Xiaochuan died, the secret would still be revealed. Then the game of Piaomiao Pavilion would still be over.
The second way is to let Ye Xiaochuan take away the Xuanhuo Token.
In Ye Xiaochuan's story just now, it was said that the people of the big family did not want to pursue the matter of the treasure stolen by the thieves back then, and just wanted to quietly get back what belonged to them.
The meaning of this sentence is quite obvious. If you give him the Xuanhuo Token, he will treat it as if it never happened. From now on, everyone will live in peace and have no contact with each other until death.
This is the best of both worlds. Ye Xiaochuan obtained the coveted Xuanhuo Token, and Piaomiao Pavilion also kept the biggest secret.
However, Shen Congjun was very suspicious of Ye Xiaochuan's character.
Fairy Piaomiao comes from the Hehuan sect of the demon sect, which is the biggest weakness of Piaomiao Pavilion.
Now Ye Xiaochuan has grasped this big handle. Today he can use this handle to blackmail Piaomiao Pavilion to hand over the Xuanhuo Token, and tomorrow he can use this handle to blackmail Piaomiao Pavilion to do things for him.
This is a bottomless pit.
Shen Congjun said slowly: "The story is very exciting, but the old lady wants to ask Mr. Ye two questions."
Ye Xiaochuan knew that formal negotiations were about to begin.
He walked to a place five feet in front of Shen Congjun and sat down cross-legged.
Then he said: "Senior Shen, please ask."
Shen Congjun looked at Ye Xiaochuan's eyes as quiet as water and secretly admired them in his heart.
Ye Xiaochuan's calmness far exceeds that of most people in the world.
Facing his own Xumi powerhouse, Ye Xiaochuan, at such a young age, was not frightened at all, and his calm demeanor made Shen Congjun admired and surprised at the same time.
Shen Congjun even faintly felt that there was a resurgence of true energy in Ye Xiaochuan's body.
This true energy is similar to the true dragon's energy that the emperor is born with, but it is purer and more powerful than the true dragon's energy.
This made Shen Congjun believe that Ye Xiaochuan might really be the legendary savior.
Facing Ye Xiaochuan, a figure who might be the future savior, and a major matter involving the life and death of Piaomiao Pavilion, Daxumi Shen Congjun also became cautious at this moment.
She considered the sentences and words over and over in her heart. After a moment, she slowly said: "I have a question, if the descendants of the traitor in Mr. Ye's story are willing to hand over what their ancestors stole back then. What will happen to the family treasure? If you are unwilling to hand it over, what will happen to it?
How about it?"
Ye Xiaochuan said: "These are two questions." Shen Congjun said: "No, this is one question."
