Chapter 1235: The Legacy Of Prince Felix
Chapter 1235: The Legacy of Prince Felix
"Yes, how did you know?" Chris Shelby was taken aback and asked curiously.
Victor Yellowbird replied, "Actually, from the moment you entered the ancient tomb, your every move has been within my sight."
"What!" Chris Shelby was shocked. He hadn't expected that his every action was being watched by Victor Yellowbird. Did that mean he had been acting like a clown all along? Thinking of this, Chris Shelby's face turned a bit grim.
Victor Yellowbird asked, "Chris Shelby, do you know what the jade bracelet in your hand is?"
"I don't know!" Chris Shelby shook his head. He really didn't know what the jade bracelet was. He had chosen it simply because it looked beautiful and he wanted to give it to Esther as a gift. "Do you know about Phoenix Jade?"
Boom! Upon hearing this, Chris Shelby felt as if he had been struck by lightning. He exclaimed in shock, "Of course I know about Phoenix Jade. It is said to be the finest jade from ancient times. Even Emperor Frederick's imperial seal was made from Phoenix Jade. Could it be that this bracelet in my hand..."
Victor Yellowbird nodded, "You guessed right. The bracelet in your hand was made from leftover pieces when Emperor Frederick crafted the imperial seal. Emperor Frederick gave this bracelet to Crown Prince Felix. After Prince Felix was killed by Carrie Grant and others, the bracelet was buried with him in this House of Rainstorms."
Hearing this, Chris Shelby was stunned. He never imagined that the bracelet he had casually picked would have such a significant background. Was he about to become rich? Although Chris Shelby wasn't interested in wealth, the historical value of a bracelet made from Phoenix Jade was immense. If word got out, it would surely cause a sensation.
Victor Yellowbird continued, "As for the black token in your hand, it's not an ordinary item either. It is Prince Felix's crown prince token. With this token, you can inherit Prince Felix's legacy!"
"I believe you've heard that Emperor Frederick practiced Dragon Techniques, and so did Prince Felix. Although not as powerful as Emperor Frederick, it's still formidable. If you obtain Prince Felix's legacy, your strength will increase significantly."
Upon hearing this, Chris Shelby's heart raced with excitement. He had long heard of Emperor Frederick's Dragon Techniques, which had enabled him to unify the world. As the crown prince of Terracotta, Prince Felix's Dragon Techniques would certainly not be weak. If he could inherit Prince Felix's legacy, his strength would surely soar.
This was an enormous temptation for any practitioner. Chris Shelby's breathing grew heavier.
Seeing Chris Shelby's reaction, Victor Yellowbird smiled; everything was going according to plan. No practitioner could resist the allure of Prince Felix's legacy.
Chris Shelby took a deep breath to calm himself down. He looked at Victor Yellowbird and asked with a frown, "I have to ask you something: if Prince Felix's legacy is so tempting, why haven't you obtained it yourself?"
Hearing this question, Victor Yellowbird was momentarily stunned. He hadn't expected Chris Shelby to calm down so quickly. Most people would be eager to obtain the legacy immediately. But instead of rushing for it, Chris Shelby questioned him.
It seemed that Chris Shelby was indeed no ordinary person; otherwise, he wouldn't have made it this far. Indeed, while he was tempted by Prince Felix's legacy, he was also cautious by nature-a trait honed through years of battles on the border.
Victor Yellowbird knew that if he didn't speak truthfully, Chris Shelby wouldn't let it go easily.
"Sigh," Victor Yellowbird sighed
softly and said, "It's not that I don't want to obtain Prince Felix's legacy but to do so requires the black token. Since I don't have it, there's no way for me to obtain the legacy. Moreover, inheriting such things depends on fate; without it, there's nothing one can do."
Chris Shelby stared intently at Victor Yellowbird and saw that his expression seemed genuine before taking out the black token and saying with a sigh, "I never thought this token would be related to obtaining Prince Felix's legacy."
"Don't underestimate this black token," Victor Yellowbird said with a look of envy on his face. "With it, the entire House of Rainstorms is yours. So you've gained much more than others on this trip."
Back then when Victor Yellowbird
entered this ancient tomb himself, he almost obtained the black token but failed at the last moment due to an unknown curse that forced him to stay in the House of Rainstorms and help find a successor for Prince Felix.
"What?" Chris Shelby was astonished upon hearing Victor Yellowbird's words. He hadn't expected that this black token could command the House of Rainstorms-an unexpected delight!
"How can I take control of the House of Rainstorms with this black token?"
"Chris Shelby," Victor Yellowbird said calmly, "do you remember the ring you found in the desert?"
"You mean this one?" Chris Shelby asked as he took out an ancient ring from his pocket.
Victor Yellowbird nodded and said, "Yes! This ring is called a spatial ring and was crafted by formation masters during Terracotta times. It contains space within it where you can store things."
"And this House of Rainstorms was crafted using a method called 'mustard seed into Mount Sumeru,' allowing it to grow or shrink according to your will. So once you leave here, you can store the entire House of Rainstorms inside your spatial ring."
Chris Shelby widened his eyes in disbelief-spatial rings? If he weren't living in modern times, he'd think he had traveled into some fantasy world!This material belongs to NôvelDrama.Org.
"Senior," Chris Shelby asked skeptically, "are you not deceiving me?"
Victor Yellowbird responded with an exasperated look on his face: "Rest assured; I won't deceive you! However," he added after a pause, "I do have one favor to ask of you."
"What is it? If it's within my power to do so," Chris Shelby replied earnestly.
Without saying anything more
verbally at first glance but instead pulling out a scroll from his
pocket-unrolling which revealed an image of an extraordinarily beautiful woman dressed elegantly like someone out-of-this-worldly ethereal-Victor Yellowbird finally
spoke up again:
"Senior," Chris Shelby exclaimed upon seeing her portrait immediately widening eyes full astonishment...
