Chapter 1758: Treasures Within The Imperial Cabinet (2/2)

When Li Qiye stopped here, the other three also stopped behind him to stare at the item. It wasn’t anything special, just an old chunk of bronze that had broken off from a bowl. It was around the size of a palm and had old, uneven edges, indicative of its age.

The three didn’t know why this tiny piece of bronze was considered precious at all. However, they didn’t dare to underestimate it since they were aware that this shop was extraordinary.

“Why is this treasure valuable?” The young He Chen couldn’t help but ask the shopkeeper since Li Qiye kept on staring at it without speaking.

“This is our clan’s hereditary treasure. It has been pa.s.sed down for generations now.” The shopkeeper explained in a respectful tone: “It has an irreplaceable position in our clan.”

The group was stirred after hearing this. This piece of bronze was definitely an amazing treasure.

“Did it belong to an emperor?” He Chen eventually asked, unable to figure it out.

The shopkeeper smiled: “It’s not an emperor’s possession but even something better. No one can own this treasure since that would be a supreme fortune. Outside of emperors, someone who can grasp it will be a talent as amazing as a true dragon soaring on the horizon.”

This answer only made the group even itchier with curiosity.

“For your clan, the value of this treasure isn’t in and of itself, not its materials but rather, the story behind it and its creator.” Li Qiye who has been staring at the item the entire time finally commented with a sigh.

“Sir, how do you know this?!” The shopkeeper staggered and stared at Li Qiye in disbelief. No one outside of his clan should be aware of this.

“There’s nothing I don’t know.” Li Qiye said flatly: “Imperial Clash, it has always been here as a symbol, just like the Imperial Cabinet.”

His eyes drifted towards the distance afterward. Who knows what he was thinking?

The rest exchanged glances out of confusion. They didn’t know what he was talking about. Of course, only the old shopkeeper understood the stories within.

“Creak.” At this time, the door to the shop opened with several people entering. A young lad was leading the way.

He was vigorous and full of energy, indicating his decent cultivation. The extravagant robe he had on showed that he came from a n.o.ble background.

The five disciples behind him looked quite powerful too with their sharp eyes.

s.h.i.+ Sou’s group changed their expression. Shen Xiaoshan looked down on the ground, not wis.h.i.+ng to be recognized.

However, it was too late. The youth’s gaze fixated on them. Perhaps they were his target in coming here.

“Oh? You Sago Palm disciples are quite busy, running ten million miles to be here at Jilin City. How rare.” The youth sneered.

He Chen and Shen Xiaoshan didn’t respond. They were waiting for s.h.i.+ Sou’s lead.
