    Xiao Yifei was even more astonished upon hearing Tan Zhenting’s words, because what Tan Zhenting had said sounded very usible, and indeed, the Divine Dragon on the wall in front of them appeared to be descending from the heavens.


    What surprised Xiao Yifei most was the fact that he had already used his irvoyance to examine the wall while Tan Zhenting began to speak of its origins. He couldn’t see through it at all, and it was entirely unclear to him. This was the first time Xiao Yifei encountered something impermeable to his irvoyance!


    When he employed his irvoyance on the wall, it was as if Xiao Yifei had suddenly lost his superpower—he couldn’t see anything, which was why he was so surprised after hearing Tan Zhenting’s exnation.


    Tan Zhenting, seeing Xiao Yifei’s eyes widened and his mouth agape as if in utter belief, could not help butugh heartily and ’ha ha’ out loud.


    Tan Yunjing, seeing her father behaving that way, pouted her lips in dissatisfaction and said, "Daddy, you’re fooling people with legends passed down through our family history again. Are you proud of yourself for managing to deceive Brother Xiao Yifei?"


    Hearing Tan Yunjing’s remarks, Tan Zhenting’s face showed an awkward expression. He turned to Xiao Yifei and chuckled, "Mr. Xiao, what I just said is all legend, not really true. While this golden wall has been passed down from our ancestors, and there is such a legend, nowadays, with technology being so advanced, who believes in all these supernatural things? I’ve already had the wall examined with X-rays and various tests—the only peculiar thing is its extreme hardness. So, Mr. Xiao, you need not be so astonished by what I’ve said. Just take it as a story."


    After exining to Xiao Yifei, Tan Zhenting touched his head. Although the Tan Family’s link to this wall spanned back through the ages and came with responsibilities, in the modern age of advanced technology, he, too, expressed skepticism towards such mysterious stories.


    "Waiting for someone for so many years, how can they ever show up!"


    Having muttered this to himself, Tan Zhenting thenughed self-deprecatingly before turning to Xiao Yifei and said earnestly, "Mr. Xiao, you’ve seen most of the items in the Tan Family’s ’Treasure Pavilion’. The offer I made earlier still stands—aside from this golden wall, you may choose any one item for yourself!"


    Tan Zhenting gestured grandly with his hand, "Although this golden wall doesn’t seem to be of much value now, it is still an heirloom of the Tan Family that needs to be kept. Therefore, you can freely pick any one of the other items to take with you!"


    Tan Zhenting’s words surprised Tan Yunjing. She tiptoed up to Xiao Yifei and whispered, "Brother Xiao Yifei, you really should choose carefully. Although the items in our Tan Family ’Treasure Pavilion’ are all quite valuable, there are different levels of worth, and my dad rarely is this generous. You mustn’t waste this opportunity!"


    Upon hearing Tan Yunjing’s words, Xiao Yifei broke into a grin.


    Despite her attempt at discretion, the sharp-eared Tan Zhenting overheard Tan Yunjing’s soft words. His eyes widened upon listening to her, "Girls really can’t wait to leave their fathers behind. Before anything even happens, you’re already not on your daddy’s side!"


    Tan Yunjing shrank her neck and hid behind Xiao Yifei, defiantly sticking her tongue out at Tan Zhenting.


    Seeing this scene unfold, Xiao Yifei couldn’t help but burst intoughter.


    "Mr. Xiao, if you still don’t find anything to your liking, you can continue looking around, no problem!"


    Seeing Xiao Yifei looking around indecisively, Tan Zhenting spoke again, "Mr. Xiao, please feel free to choose."


    Upon hearing Tan Zhenting insist, Xiao Yifei knew he would have to take something before leaving and squinted his eyes as he started to mill around the shelves once more.


    Seeing Xiao Yifei take action, Tan Zhenting said nothing more but quietly watched as Xiao Yifei wandered among the brightly gleaming treasures.


    Xiao Yifei looked here and there, but he wasn’t looking for anything extraordinarily precious, nor was he looking for anything toomon. In his view, he simply wanted to find something that caught his eye. After all, the thing about antiques is that they are for one’s own enjoyment;patibility and fate are the most important.


    And just as Xiao Yifei turned the corner, suddenly, his eyes narrowed. He saw an object, and the moment heid eyes on it, his heart skipped a beat. A strange feeling once again washed over him, and the cement of the item was very peculiar, too. The other shelves were filled to the brim with many treasures, whereas this one shelf was conspicuously sparse, holding only this one object.


    Slowly, Xiao Yifei walked over and picked up the object, holding it in his hands.


    At first nce, the object was pitch-ck and oval-shaped. If thrown on the ground, people might think it was just a chunk of coal, but when Xiao Yifei held the object that looked like coal, he found it surprisingly heavy, and its surface, which seemed like that of coal, was exceptionally smooth.


    "What is this?"


    There were exnations for the provenance of the treasures on the other shelves, but this ck ball sat alone on its shelf, with nothing written underneath it.


    Xiao Yifei stared at the coal-like object, filled with doubts. Even though this object looked average, even ugly, and was quite ordinary, for some reason, his heart pounded when he saw it. Once again, he tried to use his irvoyance to see through the coal-like object, but it was just like when he had looked at the golden wall—no reaction at all!


    This realization startled Xiao Yifei, as his usually infallible irvoyance had been stumped twice today. The feeling of not being in control of everything made him a bit anxious. He stared intently at the ck Coal Ball. If he wasn’t hallucinating, then just as he tried to use his irvoyance, the ck Coal Ball seemed to emit a faint glow for a moment.


    Xiao Yifei’s interest in the ck Coal Ball increased further. He showed a curious expression, flipping the ck Coal Ball in his hand as he walked towards Tan Zhenting.


    "Mr. Xiao, have you made your choice?"


    Tan Zhenting smiled at Xiao Yifei as he saw hime back.


    "Hmm."


    Xiao Yifei nodded, then brought out the ck Coal Ball and ced it in front of Tan Zhenting with a puzzled look. "I feel like this treasure and I are quite fated, but what exactly is it? I’ve never seen it before, and there’s no exnation written underneath."


    Tan Zhenting also showed an unmistakable sh of confusion on his face when he saw the ck Coal Ball in Xiao Yifei’s hand.


    Tan Zhenting knew every antique and treasure inside the ’Treasure Pavilion’ like the back of his hand, but this item seemed to bepletely absent from his memory.


    "Mr. Xiao, where did you find this?"


    Tan Zhenting asked curiously, as he couldn’t recall having such an object in their ’Treasure Pavilion’.


    Seeing Tan Zhenting’s puzzled look, Xiao Yifei also felt a bit strange. He pointed to the ce where he had picked up the ck Coal Ball and exined, "Just over there. It was alone on a shelf."


    Upon hearing Xiao Yifei’s response, a spark shed in Tan Zhenting’s eyes, his curiosity deepening.
