"By the way, Ancestor, why did the Giant Whale Gang suddenly fall into internal strife?" Chu Chuyan looked at him with her beautiful eyes. Over the years, she had dealt with the Giant Whale Gang while managing the Chu family, and she really couldn't imagine that such a troublesome opponent would fall into internal strife.

"Because Chen Xuan also came to the island and turned many people in the Giant Whale Gang against him. Those people were no longer satisfied with the previous gang leader's conservatism and wanted to expand the scale of the smuggled salt business, so they fought each other, which gave me the opportunity to escape," Zu An explained. There was nothing wrong with saying these things.

"Chen Xuan!" Even Chu Zhongtian was surprised to hear this name.

"What was the result of their fight?" Qin Wanru asked hurriedly.

“They should all be dead,” Zuan replied.

"Dead?" A group of people looked puzzled, clearly unable to understand how someone like Chen Xuan could die so easily.

Zu An brought out the story he had already discussed with Zheng Dan: "When I was on the run, I suddenly heard a dragon's roar, followed by a terrifying pressure spreading out. I saw a huge dragon in the sky in the distance. It must have been Chen Xuan and the others chasing the leader of the Giant Whale Gang and accidentally wandering into the dragon's territory."

"The giant dragon soared up and down, constantly spewing fire from its mouth. No matter how high Chen Xuan's cultivation level was, he was no match for the dragon."

"After some time, I secretly went closer to take a look and found a large pile of charred corpses, a mass of trampled flesh, and Chen Xuan's golden knife next to it. I suppose that was his corpse."

"A dragon! There were legends from our ancestors that there was a dragon in Dragon Hidden Mountain, but no one had ever actually seen one for hundreds of years. They just thought it was fake. I never expected it to actually exist." Chu Zhongtian exclaimed in amazement. "It seems I need to invite a few old friends to go to Dragon Hidden Mountain to investigate the dragon's whereabouts."

Even he couldn't resist the allure of the dragon, but he also knew that if the dragon truly existed, he alone would be no match for it.

Zu An thought to himself, "It would be a miracle if you could find it; that dragon is inside my glass pearl."

Qin Wanru smiled slightly: "Although this trip was dangerous, we still brought back two pieces of good news. The Giant Whale Gang and Chen Xuan were both major threats to our Chu family, but we didn't expect to be able to resolve them together."

Chu Zhongtian laughed too: "Yes, yes, I didn't expect that our ancestor would be our lucky star."

Chu Chuyan then came to Zu An's side and said softly, "Zu An, don't do such dangerous things in the future. If you find anything, come back and let us know in advance. I can go with you."

Zuan felt a warmth in his heart and couldn't help but hold her cold little hand.

Chu Chuyan was so embarrassed that she subconsciously tried to pull her hand back, but the other person held it too tightly and she couldn't pull it away at all, so she had no choice but to let him have his way.

Chu Zhongtian, who was standing to the side, noticed that his eyes had widened and couldn't help but glance at his wife.

Qin Wanru thought to herself, "What's the use of looking at me? If you knew your daughter had slept with someone else, wouldn't you be furious?"

After asking him a few questions, Chu Chuyan was worried that he was tired, so she arranged for servants to prepare hot water for him to bathe and change.

Chu also insisted on cooking a dish to welcome his brother-in-law back and wash away the bad luck he had been experiencing these past few days.

Chu Chuyan couldn't refuse her, so she went to the kitchen with her and asked the kitchen to prepare some dishes for him.

Zuan was comfortably soaking in the hot water tub, enjoying himself, when suddenly a sense of alarm arose in his heart, and he hurriedly turned around to look.

A gaunt old man stood beside the bathtub and gave a chilling laugh: "Your vigilance is getting higher and higher."

“Senior.” Looking at Old Man Mi, Zu An always felt uneasy. He subconsciously shrank his body underwater to avoid being seen by Old Man Mi and to avoid him realizing that his extraordinary talent had been cured.

Fortunately, Old Man Mi had a past trauma and instinctively avoided looking at those places: "You're getting wilder and wilder, you'll get yourself killed one day."

Zuan chuckled awkwardly, "I didn't want to this either, but man proposes, God disposes."

"It's good that you're back, it's good that you're back." Old Man Mi snorted. These days, he was probably in the top three most worried about Zu'an's safety, since he no longer had time to find another suitable candidate.

At this point, he even considered whether to break one of Zuan's legs so that he could stay at home in peace and avoid encountering danger outside.

However, considering that he still had other things to do, he ultimately gave up on this tempting idea.

"I've come to see you this time because I have a new task for you," Old Man Mi said in a deep voice.

"A new mission?" Zuan was taken aback.

Old Man Mi took out a small brocade box from his pocket: "Go to the Wei family and find me a box exactly the same as this one, and bring it back to me."
