Chapter 2230: Chapter 2230: Where is the Jade Seal?

Had he foreseen this day all along, preparing in advance and securing a retreat before the Yiinn Family’s situation erupted?

“Can you locate the original owners of these items?” She asked Wei Na.

Upon hearing this, Wei Na paused momentarily, but only briefly, before nodding quickly.

“I can certainly find them, but you’ll need to give me some time. It won’t happen today—it’s not that simple to locate them so quickly.” Finding one person is different from finding several.

Behind these items are many individuals, and he would need to track them down one by one. It would inevitably take some time.

“Alright, I’ll give you the time.”

An Jiuyue nodded. Time was something she would naturally allow.

But now, might the Former Sovereign Emperor already be aware of their arrival? She wondered if he would retreat even deeper into hiding or attempt to stir up some trouble.

“I’ve given you the items and the time. I’ll wait for your news.”

“Understood.”

Wei Na answered.

With these items, he could certainly find the people behind them.

But there was one thing he needed to remind his Family Head of.

“Master, you…”

“I know.”

Before Wei Na could finish speaking, An Jiuyue raised her hand to stop him.

If something went wrong with these items, it would indicate they were unreliable. And if locating those individuals through these items led to finding the Former Sovereign Emperor, who could say whether he was among them?

If not, wouldn’t their efforts have been in vain?

“I will go ask the New Sovereign Emperor again.”

Saying this, she stepped out of the space and immediately saw the New Sovereign Emperor looking directly at her.

“Sovereign Emperor, are those all the belongings of the Former Sovereign Emperor?” She asked.

“Yes, that should be all.”

The Sovereign Emperor responded to An Jiuyue’s question. Those items, though few in number, had been kept closely by the Former Sovereign Emperor for many years.

He thought they should be enough to locate the man through these items, shouldn’t they?

An Jiuyue scoffed coldly, finding this New Sovereign Emperor to be truly foolish. No wonder he hadn’t been able to outmaneuver the Former Sovereign Emperor all these years.

“What about the jade seal?”

She parted her lips slightly and asked.

“The… jade seal?”

The Sovereign Emperor was taken aback, his gaze filled with surprise as he looked at An Jiuyue.

The jade seal was the life-saving artifact of the Monarch Family—how could it possibly be handed over?

“The jade seal… the jade seal is here, it’s right here.”

It wasn’t as though he had a choice—she was standing right there watching him. If he didn’t hand it over, his life would be forfeited. And if he lost his life, what use would the jade seal be?

He strode toward a cabinet, opened an inner compartment, took out the jade seal, and respectfully offered it to An Jiuyue with both hands.

“High Priest, this is the jade seal.”

This jade seal had been painstakingly snatched from the hands of the ‘false’ Sovereign Emperor.

He had already ordered verification, confirming that this was indeed the genuine jade seal.

“The genuine jade seal?”

An Jiuyue expressed some skepticism as she asked.

“Yes, the genuine jade seal; verification has already been completed.” The Sovereign Emperor replied.

“Hmm.”

An Jiuyue softly acknowledged, taking the jade seal and immediately tossing it into the space, handing it to Wei Na.

“Once that damned man is found, I’ll return the jade seal to you.” She said.

“Understood, High Priest.”

The Sovereign Emperor wouldn’t dare refuse. Even if she didn’t return the jade seal, what could he say about it?

Still, he felt somewhat unsettled. Could all the items the Former Sovereign Emperor had used for years truly fail to reveal his hiding place?
