When everyone gathered in the hall, Lin Qingwan made a decision, that is, everyone should act together this time. But first they should go to the City Lord's Mansion to find Chen Shaoxuan to understand the situation!

So, everyone went to the City Lord's Mansion together. When they arrived at Chen Shaoxuan's yard, he was sitting in the yard basking in the sun. His pale face turned slightly red under the sun, and he looked much more energetic than before.

Chen Shaoxuan saw everyone entering the yard under the leadership of his parents. The woman in the lead was the person who saved him that day. He hurriedly stood up to greet her.

"Miss, you are here. Shaoxuan has recovered a lot in the past few days. I would like to thank you for saving my life. Please take a seat!"

Chen Shaoxuan brought everyone to a pavilion and they sat down.

Lin Qingwan saw that Chen Shaoxuan had indeed recovered a lot. He was gentle and elegant, exuding a scholarly air. His facial features were distinct, his eyes were gentle, he had deep dimples and a tall nose. His every move revealed a good level of self-restraint and composure, which made people feel a kind of quiet and steady power, showing a refined and steady charm.

It is hard to imagine that such a poetic and scholarly man could fight monsters alone for such a long time without losing his mind. This kind of tenacity and perseverance is not something that ordinary people can possess.

Chen Shaoxuan smiled, revealing two deep dimples on his lips. He bowed to everyone and said, "Thank you all for saving my life. I, Chen Shaoxuan, will remember your kindness. I know that you came here this time to ask me something. So now, if you have any questions, just ask directly. I will answer everything I know."

City Lord Chen also echoed, "Xuan'er is right. We are also willing to cooperate with you!"

Lin Qingwan felt their sincerity and thought it was almost done, so she asked, "Master Shaoxuan, we were asked by Xiaohai. His elder brother disappeared a few days ago. He came to our house for help. We promised him that we would try our best to find his elder brother no matter what. This kid has been looking for his elder brother everywhere recently.

We think this incident might have something to do with the monster. Could you please tell us what happened the last time you went there? We can be prepared."

Hearing this, Chen Shaoxuan's sword-like sharp eyebrows slightly frowned, forming a shallow "川" character. His originally deep and bright eyes seemed to be shrouded by a thick haze, revealing a deep fear. Just recalling the scene of that day seemed to make him tremble all over and be terrified.

He took a deep breath, and his chest swelled up as if he was taking in all the air around him. However, even so, when he was about to start talking, his lips couldn't stop trembling slightly, and it was obvious that he needed to use all his strength to overcome the fear in his heart. Finally, after a struggle, he slowly told the horrifying experience.

"That day, I finally got my father's permission, and then I was able to embark on the journey with several like-minded partners. We carried a mysterious map with a path to the depths of the North Sea. Along the way, the wind and the sea were calm, and we didn't even see the shadow of a sea beast. At first, we secretly thanked our good luck, thinking that perhaps this exploration would be smooth sailing. But now that I think about it carefully, in fact, some unusual signs had already begun to appear at that time. It's a pity that we were too young and hot-tempered at the time. We only wanted to pursue unknown treasures and didn't pay attention to the dangerous signals hidden under the calm surface."

At this point, Chen Shaoxuan paused for a moment, a trace of regret on his face. Then, he continued, "Following the guidance of the ancient map, we searched all the way and finally came to a seemingly ordinary sea area. After repeatedly confirming the location, we sank into the seabed without hesitation. The sea water was icy cold, and the deeper we sank, the greater the pressure and the darker the light. Time passed by, and we kept swimming down, as if we would never reach the end. I don't know how long it took, just when we were about to lose our patience..."

"We saw a palace. The palace looked very old and was filled with a mysterious atmosphere. We approached the palace curiously, but found that the gate was closed and we couldn't get in. At that time, we knew that the palace was protected by a formation. It should be difficult for outsiders to enter.

But fortunately, there was one among us who was proficient in formations. After his careful and thorough exploration and deciphering, he finally made a hole in a corner of the formation, and we entered through that hole.

When we pushed open the palace gate, we found that the inside was shabby and dilapidated, not as magnificent as we had imagined. We prepared to explore further. But before we had gone far, countless monsters suddenly emerged around the palace and rushed towards us... We fought hard, but there were more and more monsters. We were no match for the four, and in the end, I was the only one who escaped. "

Chen Shaoxuan's voice was filled with pain and self-blame. "It's all my fault that I failed to protect my friends..." He lowered his head, tears welling up in his eyes.

He gently raised his hand and slowly touched the jade pendant hanging on his chest. His fingers gently rubbed the surface of the jade pendant, as if he was touching an extremely precious treasure. Lin Qingwan, who was standing by, was attracted by his action and subconsciously looked over in the direction of his movement.

The jade pendant, which should have been crystal clear and flawless, now had a deep crack. This crack was like a ferocious centipede, winding and twisting on the jade pendant, which was shocking. However, even so, the jade pendant still stubbornly emitted a faint dark light.

Lin Shaoxuan continued, "I was able to get out alive thanks to this jade pendant, which was given to me by my father. Those monsters seemed to be very afraid of this jade pendant, so I was able to save my life. Although I escaped, I still..."

The voice of City Lord Chen came at this time: "I got this jade pendant from a high monk who said it was a treasure that had been worshipped in front of the Buddha for a long time. He said it was destined to be with Shaoxuan, so he gave it to me. I was wondering at the time why he gave the jade pendant to Shaoxuan, who he had never met. But I thought the jade pendant was pretty good, so I put it around his neck. Unexpectedly, it really saved his life. Now that I think about it, everything is arranged freely by fate."

Lin Qingwan was surprised that there really were such magical things in this world and the ability to predict the future was so powerful. The people in Buddhism were really mysterious.

Jun Moyan looked at the cracked jade pendant from a distance and nodded slightly: "It is a treasure, but now it is cracked, and its effect is greatly reduced! What a pity!"

Chen Shaoxuan touched the jade pendant and said with emotion: "Its mission has been accomplished, and it also saved my life!"

Lin Qingwan comforted him softly, "This is not your fault, Master Shaoxuan. The monster was so ferocious, you are lucky to be able to come back alive." City Lord Chen also patted his son's shoulder to express his relief.
