“What request?” Jiang Ying asked Zuo Ling.
“It’s very simple. It’s that my master and I have to be there when you go looking for the treasure,” he said.
“I can’t have uncertain people come along with me. What if there’s danger?” Jiang Ying said.
Zuo Ling said to Jiang Ying, “Don’t worry, we won’t become that uncertain factor. Moreover, without Guang Yao, you won’t be able to enter the core area.” Was there such a thing as the core area? Jiang Ying was skeptical. He nodded. “Alright, give me the treasure map.”
Zuo Ling did not hesitate at all. He picked up the knife and made a cut on his elbow. Blood instantly dripped to the ground.
Under Jiang Ying’s shocked gaze, Zuo Ling dug out a jade pendant-like thing from his elbow.
He handed this to Jiang Ying. Jiang Ying squeezed the jade pendant hard and it shattered.
Zuo Ling looked at Jiang Ying differently. He suddenly felt a little afraid of Jiang Ying. This person was too powerful.
There was indeed something in the jade pendant, but it needed to be crushed with strength to reveal what was inside. However, Jiang Ying knew something that even Guang Yao did not know.
If this person had the intention to rise to the top, he would definitely be Guang Yao’s match!
If Jiang Ying knew what Zuo Ling was thinking, he would definitely laugh at him in disdain.
He really did not know that he would have to crush the jade pendant to see the treasure map inside. He took the jade pendant just to see if it was real. He had casually pinched it, but he did not expect it to shatter.
Seeing the blueprint inside, Jiang Ying knew what the jade pendant was hiding.
“I’ll leave with Guang Yao. Please don’t break your promise,” Zuo Ling said. “How should I contact you then?” Jiang Ying asked Zuo Ling.
Zuo Ling thought for a moment and took out another bronze token. “When the time comes, you can take this to the rice shop outside the city and tell them that you want to buy old glutinous rice.”
The corners of Jiang Ying’s mouth twitched. This secret signal was more or less a joke.
However, he did not laugh out loud on the spot. He nodded and said to Zuo Ling, “We’ll go when we have time in the future.”
After Zuo Ling left with Guang Yao, Yuan Hui immediately asked, “Are you really going to bring them there?”
Jiang Ying nodded. “If it’s really as they said and we can’t enter the core area without him and Guang Yao, what should we do?”
Yuan Hui disagreed. “If you bring them along, you’ll be in more danger and you’ll have a burden.”
At the side, Ning Yue said, “Actually, bloodlines are the most magical thing. Do you still remember that there are DNA chains in that world?”
Yuan Hui stopped talking. Ning Yue was right, but he still felt that it was dangerous to bring them along.
“Uncle, don’t worry. When the time comes, we’ll bring Baili and the others along. That way, you won’t have to worry about us,” Ning Yue said.
“How can I not be worried? Do you know how many people covet the treasures of the previous dynasty? Do you know how many people want them? If the matter of you having the treasure map is exposed, it will also be a disaster for you,” Yuan Hui said with a dark expression.
“He won’t reveal that we obtained the treasure map,” Ning Yue said calmly.
“There’s no absolute in everything. Just like how he thought that no one would know that the treasure map was with him, but you did,” Yuan Hui said.
After saying this, the three of them fell silent at the same time. Ning Yue took a deep breath and looked out the door. It was already after midnight.
“Let’s rest early. We’ll talk tomorrow. Uncle, Jiang Ying has prepared a room for you. Go to that room to rest. It’s already so late. Don’t go back,” Ning Yue said.
Yuan Hui did not refuse and went to the prepared room to rest.
Ning Yue returned to her room and lay on the bed, her eyes still closed. She was thinking about the treasure map and the treasure location.
The next day, Ning Yue woke up with two dark circles under her eyes. After washing up, she went to the dining room for breakfast.
Yuan Hui left after eating breakfast. Not long after, Uncle Su came over to say that Princess Dawn had arrived.
Ning Yue was stunned for a long time before she remembered such a person. Princess Dawn wanted to marry Jiang Ying back then, but the emperor decided to match her with someone else.
At this moment, why was she here in Prince Jin’s residence instead of preparing for the wedding?
“Princess, do you want to see her?” Uncle Su asked.
Jiang Ying frowned and said, “No, ask her to go back.”
Uncle Su was about to reject her when Ning Yue stopped him. “Let her in.”
“Yes.” Uncle Su accepted the order and left..
