Zhang Hanyan stood in the wide corridor and casually pushed open the door of the room closest to them.

The furnishings in the house are very luxurious. The beams, brackets, doors and windows are all made of the best golden nanmu, and are inlaid with precious gems such as gold, silver, pearls, jade and agate.

The palace lanterns hanging around are dotted with luminous pearls, the pillars are carved with lifelike swirling golden dragons, and the floor is paved with golden bricks, which is luxurious and gorgeous.

"If Fatty was here, wouldn't he be staring at this with all his eyes wide open?"

Zhang Hanyan stared at everything in the room in amazement, thinking.

[Oh my god! I knew the Zhang family was rich, but I didn’t expect they were this rich!]

[That is because, after all, this is a large family that has been passed down for thousands of years, so the family heritage and savings must be rich.]

"Well, he will do it again."

Zhang Qiling looked at her and spoke softly, the corners of his lips raised in a faint smile.

There is a jade coffin in the room, surrounded by luminous pearls, and every pattern carved on the coffin is clearly visible.

The entire jade coffin was almost transparent, and was carved with a soaring and entwined five-clawed golden dragon.

The material of the jade coffin in front of you is exactly the same as meteorite jade. It is completely carved from meteorite jade.

"Have the ancestors of the Zhang family gone mad? They actually dared to carve a five-clawed golden dragon on the jade coffin. Do they also want to be emperors?"

Zhang Qiling shook his head and pointed at the person lying in the jade coffin.

"It's not them who want to be emperor, but the person inside the jade coffin who wants to be emperor."

Zhang Hanyan frowned and looked at the person lying in the jade coffin. Judging from his figure, it was a child, probably only about three years old.

"A three-year-old child?"

She muttered softly, and suddenly seemed to remember something. She widened her eyes in shock and looked at Zhang Qiling in disbelief.

"Brother, the one lying inside here, could it be the Zhang family's holy infant who was used to revive King Mu of Zhou? That's why there's a five-clawed golden dragon carved on this jade coffin!"

"That should be the case, but didn't the elders say before that Zhang's Holy Infant was dead? Why did they send his body here?"

Zhang Qiling looked at the child lying in the jade coffin, then turned to look at the other unopened rooms on the seventh floor.

"Han Yan, do you think that the other rooms are filled with Zhang family's holy infants?"

His words instantly made Zhang Hanyan feel creepy.

What if, the Zhang family had more than one Holy Infant from the beginning?

So, how many incredible things did the Zhang family do in order to resurrect King Mu of Zhou?

"Let's go take a look."

In order to confirm their guess, they opened all the rooms on the seventh floor, and found an identical jade coffin in every room.

Inside the jade coffin were children of similar size.

Their faces were peaceful as they lay quietly in the jade coffins. The beautiful childhood and happy life that should have belonged to them were ruined by the greedy people in high positions.

“Five little children, five holy babies, five chances of resurrection… Even though he made such adequate preparations, he still failed.

These people are crazy. They are willing to spend thousands of years planning and scheming for immortality.

Brother, do you think immortality is really that good? A person lives forever, but he watches his relatives and friends around him die one by one.

In the end, I am left alone in this world. What's the point?"

Zhang Hanyan recalled that when she was still a swordsman, she had many, many friends around her.

The advantage of having many friends is that it can make her life colorful. Every day, her friends have new things waiting for her.

But later, she ascended to become a fairy, and her former friends gradually left her. Everyone who was familiar with her was gone in the world.

She was unwilling to make new friends. The fairy world had been long for thousands of years, and she stayed alone every day, finding various things to pass the time.

If a thunder hadn't struck her here, she would probably still be living such a boring life now?

Thousands of years have passed, and the faces of my friends have long become blurred. All I can recall now are those little things that once seemed insignificant.

Thinking of the past, a faint sadness suddenly surged in her heart, and her bright eyes gradually became dim.

Her shoulders drooped, as if the whole world had become desolate and hopeless, and she was the only one left walking alone.

Zhang Qiling took in all her expressions. He silently held her in his arms, feeling her unspeakable emotions and sadness.

"Yan Yan, you still have me. You said that we will always be together. Don't be afraid. I will always be with you."

[Host, you are no longer the sword immortal who once possessed true immortality. You are a mortal with a limited lifespan. There is no need to feel sad about this.]

[This is a broken system, but it sounds quite philosophical...]

[Hmm... Host, are you praising me? Or scolding me? ]

[Praise you!]

[Really! Hehehe... The host is so nice...]

Zhang Hanyan hugged Zhang Qiling back, feeling the steady and powerful heartbeat in his chest. She took a deep breath, put aside the unnecessary sadness, and smiled heartily.

"Well, we have to be together forever. Let's go and see what's on the eighth floor. This is the last floor. After we see it, we'll go home. Brother, I want to go home."

"Okay, we'll go home after we finish watching."

Zhang Qiling stared at her intently, his eyes sparkling, his eyes curved, and he smiled lightly, showing his infinite tenderness.

The fat man slept for two days and two nights before waking up. As soon as he woke up, he started complaining that he was hungry and wanted to eat.

When Wu Xie and Jie Yuchen heard the report and rushed to the tent to see him, he was sitting cross-legged on the bed, holding a lunch box and eating heartily.

Seeing how ferociously he ate, they almost started to doubt whether he had never eaten since entering the Zhang family's ancient building.

Wu Xie looked at the several fast food boxes stacked up next to him, hurried over and sat on the stool beside the bed.

Xie Yuchen stood quietly by the side, staring at the fat man's every move.

"Fatty, stop eating. Tell us first, where are Brother and Hanyan? How did you get out?"

The fat man was so busy eating that he didn't notice Wu Xie and Jie Yuchen who had come in earlier. He only looked up when he heard Wu Xie's voice.

"Innocent!"

The fat man excitedly threw the lunch box in his hand, and the food spilled all over the floor. Xie Yuchen walked aside calmly.

"Hurry up and save them! Brother and Han Yan have entered the Zhang family's ancient building, the real Zhang family's ancient building!"

"What do you mean? What is the real Zhang Family Ancient Building? Didn't you go in together? Why are you the only one coming out?"

Xie Yuchen hurried to the bedside, looked down at the fat man, and asked anxiously.
