Thinking of this, Jian Yufei couldn’t help but breathe a sigh of relief.

She was worried that if Nangong Xu grew stronger, then their whole family would surely perish.

Luckily, he’s dying soon, and their nightmare is about to end.

Ruan Tianling glanced at Nangong Xu, a cold smile playing on his lips: "I wonder what his reaction will be when he finds out he’s about to die."

It’s not hard to imagine that Nangong Xu will definitely be in a lot of pain, unwilling to accept it.

He’s finally found the treasure, yet he doesn’t have the lifespan to enjoy it; he will surely be in great anguish.

Just thinking of what Nangong Xu looks like at that moment makes Ruan Tianling feel very pleased!

"He’s finally met his end!" Ruan Tianling said through gritted teeth.

His hatred for Nangong Xu is bone-deep!

Because of him, their family has suffered greatly.

Finally, his karma has come!

Jian Yufei felt the same way, she held Ruan Tianling’s hand tightly, aligning her thoughts with his.

At this moment, their feeling is that they are about to be freed.

Soon, they will usher in a brand-new life...

************

In the study room, Nangong Xu watched the underwater video shot by his men, eyes shining with fervent light.

He pressed pause, the video froze in front of a stone door.

Nangong Xu reached out to gently touch the stone door, a wide smile on his lips.

As long as he opens this stone door, everything inside will be his.

Nangong Xu was in an extraordinarily good mood. He laughed and his gaze fell onto the ashes box beside him.

He only knew that the Double Dragon Ring was the token for the Family Head’s succession.

It’s equivalent to the imperial seal in ancient times.

Other than that, he doesn’t know the use of the Double Dragon Ring.

That day Jian Yufei said she knew the secret of the Double Dragon Ring...

What secret does the Double Dragon Ring hold?

Does it have anything to do with this treasure?

Nangong Xu gently stroked his chin, lost in thought.

"Someone come!" He pressed the intercom, and a bodyguard immediately pushed the door open to enter.

"Boss, what are your orders?" 𝙛𝓻𝒆𝒆𝒘𝙚𝓫𝙣𝙤𝒗𝙚𝓵.𝙘𝙤𝙢

Nangong Xu said coolly: "Go bring Jian Yufei here."

"Yes!"

...

Jian Yufei didn’t expect Nangong Xu to want to see her so soon.

Ruan Tianling naturally wouldn’t let her go alone.

They went to the castle together, but the bodyguards intercepted Ruan Tianling, only allowing Jian Yufei to go upstairs to see Nangong Xu.

Ruan Tianling pulled Jian Yufei over and held her tightly.

He sneered coldly: "Is Nangong Xu so afraid to see me? This is his place, is he afraid I’ll harm him?"

"The boss only wants to see Miss Jian!" the bodyguard responded in a low voice.

"See us together, wanting to meet my wife alone, no way!"

The bodyguard swiftly drew his handgun, aiming it at him.

"The boss’s orders cannot be defied by anyone!"

Ruan Tianling’s eyes narrowed harshly.

Jian Yufei frowned, turning her head to Ruan Tianling: "Why not let me go alone, it’s clear they won’t let you follow."

"If I can’t go, neither should you." Ruan Tianling said forcefully.

However, they were pointing a gun at his head.

They were captive now, the consequences of resisting could be serious.

Jian Yufei resolutely said: "I should go alone, you wait here for me. If Nangong Xu really wants to do something to me, even if you follow, he’ll still do it."

Ruan Tianling paused for a moment, then nodded: "Alright, I’ll wait here for you. I’ll wait only half an hour, if you don’t come down, I’ll go up to find you."

Ruan Tianling’s last words were also directed at the other bodyguards.

Jian Yufei nodded: "Alright, I’ll only be up there for half an hour."
