Chapter 238 Admiring Her Even More
In the beginning, Xue Fanxin thought that she was just a young miss of the Duke’s Estate. If she went further, she would be an abandoned child of the Xue family. Such an identity was no big deal.
However, with the appearance of the Reverse Spirit Heaven Wheel, the letter left behind by her father, the mysteriousness of her mother, and the things she had obtained from her great-grandma’s grave today, etc… All of this proved that her background was extraordinary.
What was her parents’ background?
“Ah Jiu, do you think I’m from the Phoenix Clan?” Seeing that Ye Jiushang was fine holding the Phoenix Badge, Xue Fanxin took out the other things in the jade box. First, she looked at the Phoenix Jade Hairpin. It was crystal blue and emitted a watery crystalline blue light. Under the sun, the phoenix carved on the jade hairpin looked alive as it sparkled. The feathers on its body would flash occasionally.
This jade hairpin was very special.
Ye Jiushang was also observing the jade hairpin. He looked at the Phoenix Badge in his hand and felt that his guess was probably correct.
Even if Little Xin’er was not from the Phoenix clan, she must have had a relationship with them.
But this Phoenix clan… was really difficult to investigate.
Ye Jiushang did not speak for a long time, so Xue Fanxin raised her head and saw him in deep thought. She asked curiously, “Ah Jiu, what are you thinking about? You’re so engrossed in your thoughts.” “Nothing. Just based on these things, I can’t be sure if you’re from the Phoenix clan, but it’s true that you’re related to them; let’s not guess randomly. Isn’t there a letter inside? Take it out.” Ye Jiushang did not dwell on the Phoenix clan and did not voice his guess.
SS.
To the current Little Xin’er, the Phoenix Clan was too far away. Knowing this might not be a good thing for her.
Although the Phoenix Badge and the Phoenix Jade Hairpin were things that countless people competed for, possessing these things meant that one had to shoulder certain responsibilities or even destiny…
He did not want Little Xin’er to bear such a huge burden.
Xue Fanxin had never been a person who liked to ask questions endlessly. If Ye Jiushang was unwilling to say, she would give him some respect.
“Oh right, there’s also a letter.” Xue Fanxin placed the Phoenix Jade Hairpin back in the box and took out the letter. However, she could not understand a single word. “Ah Jiu, what’s written on it? I can’t understand it at all. I don’t even know which country it is from.” “This is an ancient language unique to the Phoenix Clan. There are very few people who can understand it now. Even the people of the Phoenix Clan don’t know such ancient words. I only know a little.” Ye Jiushang took the letter from Xue Fanxin’s hand and read it carefully a few times before he roughly understood the meaning of it. He only had a surface understanding, not getting the exact message.
“Ah Jiu, what’s written on it?”
“What I understood is that whoever obtains the Phoenix Badge and the Phoenix Jade Hairpin needs to take these two things back to the Phoenix clan. I don’t understand the words below.”
If they did not understand, it meant that they did not know what would happen after they took the thing back to the Phoenix clan.
Xue Fanxin was speechless. She placed everything back in the jade box indifferently and closed it. “What Phoenix Clan or Dragon Clan? These things don’t have much to do with me. The most important thing now is to find the tomb of the Spacetime Emperor and protect my life. I couldn’t care less about the rest.”
“It’s best that you think that way.” Ye Jiushang admired Xue Fanxin even more.
Not many people in this world could resist the temptation of the Phoenix Badge and the Phoenix Jade Hairpin. The reason he had not told Little Xin’er too much about these two treasures was that he was worried she would be blinded by their names.
It seemed that he was overthinking it. Little Xin’er was a rational and sensible person.
