Chapter 770: Cherish the Opportunity

Zhou Wen picked up the amulet from Xiao Si's hand. After Xiao Si had seen Zhou Wen's strength, he actually wanted to use this amulet against Zhou Wen. It was estimated that this amulet had extraordinary power, so Zhou Wen was very careful.

After the dimensional storm, there are too many mysterious forces in the world. Zhou Wen will not be arrogant and think that he is invincible just because he has achieved some success.

If one is not careful, this small piece of Buddha amulet might become his death warrant.

Zhou Wen looked at the Buddha amulet carefully for a long time, but could not see any clues. He just felt that there seemed to be some invisible evil spirit entangled on the amulet.

But I didn't feel any effect from this evil spirit.

Because Buddha amulets require special methods to be used, Zhou Wen didn't know how to use them, and had no way to activate the companion pet in the amulet. He fiddled with it in his hand for a while, and seeing that it was of no use, he put it away.

I searched Xiao Si's body again, but found nothing valuable except a few Buddha amulets.

Zhou Wen collected all the Buddha amulets, then directly summoned the Queen of the Fire Furnace to burn Xiao Si's body into ashes.

"Let's go back." Zhou Wen took Wang Chan back to the Wang family's old courtyard and went directly to see Grandma Wang. He told her what had happened in detail, but did not explain too much, just recounting the whole process.

Grandma Wang listened very carefully without saying a word. After she finished listening, she asked Zhou Wen and Wang Chan a few questions.

"Xiao Zhou, you did a great job. You helped our Wang family a lot and saved Xiaochan. I won't say anything more. I need to call together the core members of the Wang family to discuss countermeasures. Although the Xiao family's power is not as strong as our Wang family and they are far away in the southern district, their companion pets and various skills are special and we have to be on guard. Also, don't tell anyone about this. Just pretend it never happened. Everything will be handled by our Wang family." Grandma Wang pondered for a moment, then said to Zhou Wen.

"I was the one who killed the man. If you need me, grandma, just tell me." Zhou Wen said.

"Good boy, since you call me grandma, I won't be polite to you. I will think of you when I need you. You and Xiaochan go back first and do what you need to do. Just pretend nothing happened." Grandma Wang said.

Zhou Wen and Wang Chan left the main hall. Wang Chan looked at Zhou Wen with joy and said, "Zhou Wen, thank you. If it weren't for you, I would have been deceived by that hateful guy. Now I can finally rest assured."

Zhou Wen shook his head and said, "Your sister has helped me a lot. In comparison, what I did is just a piece of cake. You don't have to take it to heart."

After saying that, Zhou Wen turned around and went back to his room.

Since the Wang family already knows the Xiao family's intentions towards Wang Chan, they will naturally be on guard in the future, and there will be no need for Zhou Wen to intervene anymore.

Wang Chan watched Zhou Wen enter the house, holding the Silver-Winged Yaksha's companion egg in his hand. She wanted to call Zhou Wen, but she opened her mouth and closed it again.

"Hmph, sister is absolutely right. This Iron Man is good, but he just can't speak at all." Wang Chan put the Silver-Winged Yaksha's companion egg back into her pocket.

She originally wanted to return it to Zhou Wen. After all, she had no way to hatch such a mythical companion egg yet, so it would be useless to take it. Besides, she would not take other people's things casually.

If you really want a mythical companion egg, it’s not a difficult task with a sister like Wang Lu.

Despite this, Wang Chan changed her mind and did not return the companion egg to Zhou Wen. Instead, she took the companion egg back to the Wang family.

"Xiaochan, are you okay?" Wang Lu already knew what had happened. After Wang Chan came back, he pulled her aside and asked.

"I'm fine. Fortunately, Zhou Wen is here, otherwise I would have been deceived by that bastard Xiao Si. Now I finally know that my unlucky fate does not necessarily bring bad luck to everyone. At least Zhou Wen is not affected by my bad luck." Wang Chan said.

Wang Lu smiled and said, "You're right to think so. Your fate is nothing special."

"By the way, sister, do you like that Steel Man?" Wang Chan said.

"That's not true. We are just good classmates." Wang Lu said quickly.

"Is that so? Then sister, you must cherish the opportunity." Wang Chan said.

"What opportunity should I cherish? No one would want a man who has no sense of romance at all. It would be strange if he could have a girlfriend." Wang Lu said with a pout.

"That's hard to say. I think Gangtiewen is pretty good. If you don't want him, I'll be his girlfriend when I grow up." After Wang Chan said that, she returned to her room with the companion egg.

Wang Lu was stunned. He didn't expect Wang Chan to say that.

After Zhou Wen returned to the room, he continued to search the ancient sword tomb. He was still thinking about the Chengying Sword and the Xiaolian Sword.

However, the Tomb of Ancient Swords is so huge that most of the ancient swords are only of mortal and legendary levels. It is not easy to find an epic level sword, and it is even harder to find a mythical level sword.

After several hours of grinding, none of the ancient swords destroyed were of mythical rank.

However, the vine sword was still there. Zhou Wen tried various methods to pull out the sword, but the result was the same. He could not pull the vine sword out.

Zhou Wen did not take out those Buddha amulets to study because he was afraid that there might be some special settings on them. It would be bad if the Xiao family followed the clues and found them.

Placing it in the chaotic space is equivalent to being in another space, cutting off all connections with the outside world. No matter how powerful the Xiao family is, they will never be able to find those Buddha amulets again.

Zhou Wen planned to take out the Buddha amulets for study after leaving the imperial capital.

The only regret of coming to the imperial capital this time was that he was unable to download the Great Wall copy. However, Zhou Wen already had a rough idea that the Undead War Soul should be a soul-type creature. It is not really impossible to kill it, but it requires some special type of power.

The changes in the Forbidden City are still continuing. Thunder and lightning continue to fall from the sky, turning the Forbidden City into a city of thunder and lightning. However, the thunder and lightning are only limited to the Forbidden City and do not have much impact on the imperial capital.

Some people have tried to enter the Forbidden City to explore the situation inside, but the results were terrible. No matter whether it was a companion pet or a human, they immediately lost contact after entering the Forbidden City, and until now no one has been able to walk out alive.

"What exactly is the woman inside that piece of wood? What is her relationship with the antelope? Why would the antelope let me carry her into the Forbidden City?" Zhou Wen thought about this question for a long time but couldn't come up with an answer.

He went to ask the antelope, but the antelope always looked at him strangely. It was hard to tell what that expression meant. It was a bit like pity, or regret, a bit like contempt, and a bit of gloating. In short, Zhou Wen felt creepy every time he looked at it, but the antelope didn't give him the answer to his question.
