There were delicate and complex engravings on the box, they looked like flowers but werent flowers, they looked like beasts but were beasts, it had a very ancient breath.

This is? Sima You Yue gave Zhao Rui Xiang a puzzled look. She couldnt help but think of Mu Si when he took a thing like this out at such a time.

What those people are looking for. Zhao Rui Xiang said, You should already know this.

Whats the matter? Sima You Yue acted dumb.

The people from the Ghost City came here, didnt they bring you the news? Zhao Rui Xiang looked at her, he was sure that she already knew.

Sima You Yue raised her eyebrows, he even knew about the Ghost City, it seemed that he knew about quite a few things!

Do you know Mu Sis father? When she saw that his face remained the same, she continued: You know what happened back then.

Zhao Rui Xiang didnt deny it: Back then, Mu Sis father was chased after and killed because of this.

Sima You Yue didnt even pick up the box to look at it, she tapped the table lightly with her right hand and said: One look at this thing and I can tell that its cursed. Do you want to bring disaster to me by handing it to me?

This belongs to Mu Si. If those people had found it, no one knows whether he will continue to live or not. Zhao Rui Xiang said unhurriedly: Its here with me now. In order to protect myself, naturally I will hand it over. I think you will be more anxious about what will happen to Mu Si then.

Youre really frank. Sima You Yue said lightly, one was unable to guess if she was happy or angry.

Tm doing this for everyones welfare. Zhao Rui Xiang said, I dont have the strength to protect it but you do. Its best to give it to you.

Sima You Yue remained silent but didnt pick the thing up.

Zhao Rui Xiang felt that Sima You Yue was being very calm, he didnt know what she was waiting for, hence he sighed and said: Arent you curious about whats inside?

Instead of being curious, I want to know what is going on more. Although this is related to Mu Si, you and I both know that this is a troublesome situation. I can take over if you want me to, but you have to tell me what happened back then. Dont threaten me with Mu Sis safety. At most, I will save Mu Si

when I find him. Sima You Yue finally spoke.

He wanted to pa.s.s the blame onto her, did he really think that she was a fool? Even if he had any relations.h.i.+p with Mu Sis father, it had nothing to do with her.

Zhao Rui Xiang sighed and said: Alright, I guess I can tell you, its just that we had promised that we wouldnt speak of this matter. But now that they are both gone, it wont affect them even if this matter is spoken of.

So Mu Sis father had already met with tragedy.

The matter was not actually complicated, Mu Sis father was under the orders of the Sect to find this treasure. He was originally told to secure it. However, after he had obtained the treasure, he never returned to the Sect but killed everyone around him and fled with it.

The Dark Dragon Guard was angry and had sent people all over the world and hunted him down. He had fled to many places but was unable to get rid of those people. Finally, he died here.

Mu Si was an unforeseen incident that he had come across during his time as a refugee. By the time he knew of Mu Sis existence, Mu Si was already two or three years old. He himself was in danger all the time and was unable to take Mu Si with him. Therefore, he entrusted Mu Si to his friend and gave

him the box at the same time.

In order not to attract peoples attention, Zhao Rui Xiang hadnt kept Mu Si by his side but let him free instead and sent men to keep him safe secretly. When he learnt that Mu Sis father had died, Zhao Rui Xiang found his friend and asked him to take Mu Si to Ghost City.

He had thought that Mu Si would live peacefully in Ghost City and that there wouldnt be any danger to his life there. Who knew that he would have followed Sima You Yue outside and been discovered by the Dark Dragon Guard.

As to why Xuan Qiu He had gone to Sima You Yues house and captured Mu Si, Zhao Rui Xiang really didnt know the reason. Only Xuan Qui He would be able to explain it to her.

What did Mu Sis father take back then? Sima You Yue asked.

The Ancient Sacred Fire Order.

Sima You Yue glanced at Wu Lingyu, he didnt know what it was either.

There are legends in the Divine Realm that the Ancient Sacred Fire Order has supreme power and can rule the world. All living things and beings must obey its orders and cannot violate them! Zhao Rui Xiang explained.

Is it the same as the Mystical Dragon Order? Sima You Yue asked.

Its status is even higher than the Mystical Dragon Order. Zhao Rui Xiang hadnt expected Sima You Yue to know about the Mystical Dragon Order having not been up there before. The Mystical Dragon Order is for the beasts, the Ancient Sacred Fire Order includes humans.

Why do humans have to wors.h.i.+p the token? Since it is an Ancient Sacred Fire Order, the distance of time has pa.s.sed. Its just a token, is it necessary? Sima You Yue was puzzled.

legend is that there is some mysterious power in the token.

The same power as the Mystical Dragon Order?

Its different. The power in the Mystical Dragon Order was left behind by the Mystical Azure Dragon. But the power in the Sacred Fire Order seems to be related to advancement. If you obtain it, you can advance to a higher level.

Cant the people from the Divine Realm advance to Emperors?

They can only advance to Emperors, they cant advance to higher levels. Zhao Rui Xiangs words revealed helplessness. If that wasnt the case, why would the Fire Sacred Order be so respected?

You are from the Divine Realm. Sima You Yue said with certainty.

Thats right. I came here for some reason. Zhao Rui Xiang didnt deny it.

It was already obvious that he was. Sima You Yue had an understanding of matters in the Divine Realm and she knew the people above, there was no need to deny it.

You know so much about the Sacred Fire Order, why dont you take it for your own use? Sima You Yue asked. Moreover, according to what you have said, the Sacred Fire Order has the power to command the world. Why do you still fear the Dark Dragon Guard and want to give it to me instead of ruling

over them?

A mans wealth is his own by causing others greed. Zhao Rui Xiang smiled wryly. Besides, the power of the Sacred Fire Order is only a legend. I have been studying it for many years and I havent seen anything special, let alone to use it to rule the world.

The inability to decipher the power in it was not the power to rule the world but a reminder of death, He understood the meaning of this.

I treasure my life more. If the Dark Dragon Guard found me, I wont keep it at the risk of my own life. Now I give it to you because I want to have a good relations.h.i.+p with you.

This thing can be given to anyone, but once it is given to the Dark Dragon Guard, Mu Sis role will end. Mu Sis life could only be saved by giving it to her. Those people would definitely bring Mu Si to see her.

In that case, thank you very much. Sima You Yue reached out and touched the box. She felt a shock through her body and suddenly, there was something in her mind..
