Spirit Master Girl: Contracting with an SSS-Level School Beauty at the Start-Chapter 309: Jade Pendant

Han Dingxiang was interrupted by Ye Youlong, and she was stunned for a moment before calming down.

She had indeed been too excited just now, the surprise of coming back from the dead was uncontrollable for anyone.

However, she also felt a bit of trepidation, because the chill that Ye Youlong had just emitted was too cold, so cold that she had no doubt that if she touched Xiao Zhan again, Ye Youlong would lash out and kill her.

Seeing Han Dingxiang’s somewhat stiff and pale face, Xiao Zhan offered no explanation and did not attempt to ease the atmosphere.

He knew Ye Youlong’s personality all too well, allergic to any scent of flowers.

And his own identity was a bit special to Han Dingxiang.

So, to avoid unnecessary trouble, it was better to cool her down.

"Are you alright?" asked Han Dingxiang.

To break the awkward atmosphere, the now calm Han Dingxiang asked this ordinary question.

"I’m fine, those people have been dealt with," Xiao Zhan replied indifferently.

Then he turned his attention to the body of Su Mingdi, searching for something on the corpse.

But he found nothing.

Finally, he glanced at the Jade Pendant that Baidi had found lying on the ground.

He picked up the Jade Pendant, his expression turning contemplative.

"I feel like I have seen this pattern on the Jade Pendant before," murmured Xiao Zhan.

Ye Youlong took the Jade Pendant from his hand, glanced at it, and her eyebrows immediately knitted, "This pattern is the totem of the Su Family, they are from the Su Family."

"The Su Family?" Xiao Zhan was still a bit slow to react.

Ye Youlong added, "The Su Family, one of the eight major clans."

"Them?"

Xiao Zhan’s expression suddenly became sterner; he knew Su Mingdi was an outside helper invited by the Li family’s corporation, but he had thought it was just some hidden family from the Kimchi Federation.

He never imagined it would be the Su Family of the Longxia Federation!

Xiao Zhan’s expression became grave; this matter was complicated if it involved the Su Family.

If the Su Family had only some simple association with the Li family’s corporation, that would be one thing, but if the Su Family colluded with the Li family’s corporation to target the Ye Family, that would be truly grave.

That would be akin to a war within the eight great families!

"Don’t think too much, whether it’s the Li family or the Su Family, anyone who dares to make a move against my Ye Family, I will not let any of them off!" Ye Youlong snorted coldly.

She didn’t care who it was.

Upon hearing this, Xiao Zhan also thought of something and agreed, "Right, no matter who it is, anyone who dares to covet my wife, I will not let any of them off!"

Be it the Li family or the Su Family, Xiao Zhan would not let off anyone who dared to have designs on Ye Youlong.

After the two of them said this, they suddenly felt that the atmosphere was a bit off.

Xiao Zhan was startled and then realized that Han Dingxiang was still here.

In their emotional moment, they had spoken words that Han Dingxiang had heard, wouldn’t this expose their identities?

If their identities were exposed...

Thinking of this, Xiao Zhan couldn’t help but look towards Han Dingxiang, a hint of hesitation in his eyes.

The nearby Ye Youlong also realized it, and her gaze also turned to Han Dingxiang, but she had no hesitation, only cold murderous intent.

She would never let anyone disrupt her plans.

But just as she was about to take action, she saw Han Dingxiang holding a Spirit Fruit, squatting in front of Baidi and feeding it with an innocent look on her face.

At the same time, she had a smile on her lips, as if she had heard nothing at all.

Upon seeing this, Xiao Zhan stopped Ye Youlong.

Ye Youlong, puzzled, communicated with Xiao Zhan through consciousness, "She has obviously overheard. If we don’t eliminate her, our identities will be exposed."

"It was us who slipped up. Since she chooses to remain unaware, let’s give her a chance."

Xiao Zhan sighed; he was also somewhat conflicted in his heart.

Logically speaking, he should eliminate Han Dingxiang, but he found himself simply unable to do such a thing.

Seeing this, Ye Youlong did not insist on her own opinion and let Xiao Zhan make the decision.

Other than her intense ’obsessiveness’ about certain things, she generally chose to follow Xiao Zhan’s lead in most matters.

"The weather is about to cool down. We’ve been up all night; let’s take this chance to rest a bit." Xiao Zhan said.

He glanced at Han Dingxiang, then took a complete set of bedding out of the Dimension Space.

He gave a set to Han Dingxiang.

"Take a rest." Xiao Zhan said to Han Dingxiang.

"Thank you."

Han Dingxiang replied calmly, seemingly unaware of the murderous intent Xiao Zhan and Ye Youlong had just released.

Xiao Zhan nodded, then returned to his own bed.

Han Dingxiang watched him and Ye Youlong lie down together, her eyes showing complex emotions. She turned her back, choosing not to look at them.

Bai Di finished the Spirit Fruit, looked at the two beds on either side, and finally, without any hesitation, leaped into Han Dingxiang’s blanket.

Han Dingxiang also embraced it in her arms, seemingly in need of some comfort.

Xiao Zhan lay in bed, holding the Jade Pendant and pondering if the Su Family was truly involved in the murder of Ye Wuming. He wondered how he could best handle the situation.

After all, a war between two great families was no trivial matter.

A slight mishap could lead to annihilation.

But after much thought, he couldn’t come up with a good solution.

The issue at hand surpassed his current capabilities. Alone, his power was too weak to influence the situation.

He sighed.

Getting ready to sleep and rest for a while.

But at that moment, he suddenly discovered something special about the Jade Pendant.

He hadn’t paid it much attention before, assuming it was just an ordinary pendant without specifically probing it with his Perception. freeweɓnovel.cѳm

Now, as he probed with his Perception, he found a faint layer of energy swirling on the Jade Pendant.

Could it be something valuable?

With this thought, Xiao Zhan continued to probe with his Perception Skill, but he found that his Perception seemed to be blocked by some invisible barrier, unable to penetrate to the inside.

"There must be a Sealing preventing external energy from infiltrating," Ye Youlong communicated to Xiao Zhan through consciousness.

Having been a bit too quick with their words before, now the two of them had to be much more cautious.

Xiao Zhan responded, "It must be a Sealing, and the strength of this Sealing is substantial. Other than the energy of the Sealing itself, no other presence from inside can be felt."

Xiao Zhan stored the Jade Pendant into the Dimension Space. He currently lacked the ability to deal with the Sealing.

Or rather, he had no understanding at all about Sealing techniques.

It could only be left for another time.

Then he began to rest.

By nine o’clock in the morning, everyone had gotten up. Although they had only rested for a few hours, it was entirely sufficient for them.
