By the time they arrived in Shanghai, it was already afternoon. Ye Ming, following his mother’s instructions, took his master to the real estate bureau to complete the transfer procedures for Quiet Villa. With this, Quiet Villa officially became Jiang Chen's property.
After finishing the paperwork and returning to the villa, Lin Yin had already prepared dinner. To be honest, she was quite happy to play the role of a caretaker; it gave her a sense of being the lady of the house.
After dinner, Jiang Chen provided guidance on cultivation techniques, and then everyone went their separate ways to rest, with nothing more to discuss that night.
The next morning, early on, Jiang Chen's phone rang.
He picked up the phone and was surprised to see that it was Gao Feng, the Ancestor Master of the Shi Family from Yulu City, calling him. During his return journey from Kunlun Mountain after his training, Jiang Chen had passed through Yulu City and met with Shi Gaofeng at the recommendation of Peng Tianqi, the Ancestor of the Peng Family. It was from him that Jiang Chen learned about the Seven Divine Artifacts and the Mountain and Sea Secret Realm.
Gao Feng reaching out to him likely meant it was about the Seven Divine Artifacts. Since Jiang Chen had already found two of them, he could inform Shi Gaofeng about his progress.
Jiang Chen pressed the answer button.
“Is this Mr. Jiang?” came Shi Gaofeng's somewhat respectful voice over the phone. Despite being an Ancestor himself, he couldn't help but admire Jiang Chen's strength.
“Yes, it’s me. Shi Lao, what can I do for you?” Jiang Chen replied.
“Mr. Jiang, I have good news! I’ve discovered the whereabouts of the Immortal Dragon Seal,” Shi Gaofeng said excitedly.
“Where is it?” Jiang Chen couldn't help but feel delighted; this was indeed great news. For him, as long as there was a lead on an artifact, he would make sure to obtain it. It seemed he would soon acquire his third artifact.
“This is a long story. Mr. Jiang, could you come to Yulu City?” Shi Gaofeng said cautiously.
“No problem. Wait for me; I’ll arrive by noon,” Jiang Chen replied.
After hanging up, Jiang Chen asked Lin Yin to book a plane ticket for him. He had started to treat Lin Yin like a secretary. Since she also needed to take care of household duties, Jiang Chen planned to hire a dedicated caretaker in the future to manage the villa's meals and cleanliness. Since he intended to take Lin Yin as his disciple, he wanted her to focus solely on her cultivation.
Three hours later, Jiang Chen arrived at Yulu City by plane.
At Yulu City Airport, Shi Gaofeng personally came to pick him up.
In the back seat of a Rolls-Royce, Shi Gaofeng handed Jiang Chen a card. Jiang Chen took it and looked down at it.
It was a card made of a hard material that seemed to be alloyed metal, about the size of a bank card. Aside from some English text on it, what stood out most was an emblem depicting a soaring golden dragon that shimmered brightly.
“Is this the mark of the Immortal Dragon Seal?” Jiang Chen asked.
“Yes, it looks exactly like the mark described in records about the Immortal Dragon Seal,” Shi Gaofeng confirmed.
“Could it be a coincidence? Perhaps someone designed this pattern based on the Immortal Dragon Seal’s mark?” Jiang Chen suggested.
“The likelihood of that is very slim; after all, very few people know about the Immortal Dragon Seal. Moreover, the owner of this card is quite mysterious. This is now a clue; even if it's just a coincidence, we must investigate further,” Shi Gaofeng replied.
Jiang Chen nodded and continued, "Tell me in detail, what exactly is this card about?"
Shi Gaofeng naturally did not dare to hide anything and recounted the entire story. This card was something the Shi family had stumbled upon; it was an invitation card from the Dark World. The so-called Dark World was actually similar to the underground forces in Huaxia, a realm that existed in the shadows of the Earth.
