After awakening her X-ray vision, the beautiful CEO couldn't sit still any longer.

"Only when you become the true head of the Murong family will you be qualified to mobilize all the resources of the Murong family to help Ye Tian when he needs help."

We'll hold the succession ceremony on a good day after you've finished this busy period.

"Now, please keep the family head's token safe." Murong Zhenting handed over the family head's token.

Murong Xue extended both hands and respectfully accepted it.

The token was heavier than I had imagined. Holding it in my palm, an indescribable sense of peace seeped into my hand along the lines of my palm.

It actually calmed her slightly chaotic mind a little.

"Grandpa, I'm very curious, how did you know that Ye Tian's eyes could see things that ordinary people can't?"

Murong Xue looked up, her beautiful peach blossom eyes filled with confusion.

Ye Tian also looked up at Murong Zhenting; he was also very curious about this question.

"Haha, actually I could tell when Ye Tian first treated me."

Others only saw his miraculous and extraordinary acupuncture skills.

But no matter how skilled he is at acupuncture, how could he possibly insert every needle into the acupoints at the perfect depth?

The thickness of the skin and fat varies in different parts of the body.

Yet he could insert each needle perfectly.

I don't think this can be achieved with superb technique; I believe it requires an eye that is beyond the reach of ordinary people.

Murong Zhenting's words made Murong Xue suddenly realize the truth.

Old Master Murong slowly walked to the row of rosewood bookshelves filled with ancient books.

He pulled out a scroll that was packaged in a box made of Phoebe zhennan wood.

"Actually, the Star Gazing Pavilion did not only study feng shui; initially, they were also obsessed with exploring various mystical arts and secret techniques in the world."

The old man had his back to the two of them, and his voice was even more ethereal than before:

"This book records that they initially believed that there was a kind of perceptible force in the sky, on the ground, in the depths of the ocean, and even among the stars."

All living things and minerals are influenced by it.

More than a thousand years ago, they drew a map of the stars in the sky.

Moreover, it is not a simple astronomical star chart, but an energy map that marks the flow of celestial bodies and the yin and yang energies.

These yin and yang energies are their core area of ​​exploration, said to be able to guide the interaction between heaven and earth.

Murong Zhenting turned around, his gaze as deep as an ancient well, and landed on Murong Xue's face:

"Feng shui and geomancy were the precursors of geology, and were initially the branch of astronomy that focused most on practical applications."

They are more concerned with how to transform those mysterious yin and yang energies into exploreable mineral veins, predictable tides, and usable energy.

They believed that the two energies of Yin and Yang have their own will and balance, and should not be excessively seized, otherwise it will lead to imbalance.

Or, more seriously, it could cause disasters at the magnetic field level or even the geological level.

Others believe that if one understands the laws governing Yin and Yang in the universe, then one should utilize those laws; leaving resources unused is the greatest waste.

The debate between these two ideologies has a long history.

The old man's tone was very calm, but beneath that calmness lay the vicissitudes of decades of life experience.

"In those years, the World Society used its more realistic technology and organizational capabilities to secretly divide, isolate, and suppress the Star Gazing Pavilion, which adhered to its original ideals."

This led to the destruction of countless secret strongholds of the Star Gazing Pavilion and the plundering of valuable research results.

My Murong family was responsible for keeping a portion of the mineral identification records at the time.

To avoid being wiped out and to continue the family tradition, the ancestors of the Murong family made a decision: to completely turn to secular life and run a jade business.

They abandoned all overt associations with the Star Gazing Pavilion, preserving only the most essential elements and some fragmented knowledge, passing them down orally from generation to generation through family tradition, hoping for a turning point that might never come again.

Murong Xue was deeply moved as she listened. She had never imagined that beneath her family's seemingly low-key and pragmatic business empire lay such a tortuous and even tragic past.

How many people have sacrificed themselves and how many years of fear and trepidation have the Murong family endured to continue this legacy?

"So, the World Society still wields power far exceeding that of ordinary people?"

Ye Tian voiced the question that had been bothering him.

"Yes, back then, many of the secret techniques passed down by the Star Gazing Pavilion, and even by Li Chunfeng, the number one Feng Shui master of the Tang Dynasty, were stolen by them."

They must possess some ancient skills far beyond those of ordinary people.

Your recent displays of ability are so extraordinary that they have attracted their attention.

However, they didn't kill you, which is a stroke of luck amidst misfortune.

Perhaps they also need someone like you with special eyes to verify certain things.

Or rather, to help them see things they themselves cannot easily access.

The old man frowned, forming deep creases.

Ye Tian thought Murong Zhenting's explanation was very likely.

The fact that those people tested him repeatedly but didn't harm him suggests that they were likely very interested in some of his abilities.

But are the ruthless Shadow Killers Hall and the mysterious organization that controls the counterfeit base really the World Society, which has been passed down for over a thousand years?

If that's true, then things will be complicated.

This trip to Diancheng might very well lead to a conflict with them, and Ye Tian felt a chill run down his spine.

He had thought that mysterious organization was powerful enough, but now it seemed to be far more powerful than he had imagined.

"Grandpa, Xue'er, from now on the Murong family will no longer be anyone's vassal, whether it was the Star Gazing Pavilion back then or those cowardly World Society members hiding their true intentions."

They have been fighting for over a thousand years, and the Murong family has already paid a heavy price.

"With me here, I will uncover the truth buried by history for over a thousand years and restore freedom to the Murong family."

Ultimately, the Murong family has always been involved in the millennia-long struggle between the Star Gazing Pavilion and the World Society.

They were just innocent victims caught up in this mess.

It's like when gods fight, and innocent bystanders get caught in the crossfire.

If he can unravel this age-old mystery, he can completely pull the Murong family out of the mire.

The old man shook his head gently, but his face was full of satisfaction.

He took a step closer, his gaze fixed intently on Ye Tian:

"Good grandson-in-law, I knew I hadn't misjudged you."

You are kind-hearted and willing to think of the Murong family. I really thank you.

But you don't know how powerful the Star Gazing Pavilion was back then. Even they were no match for the World Alliance. How could you possibly defeat them?

Even a powerful organization like the Star Gazing Pavilion can only barely survive now.

You must not take any risks lightly.

Murong Zhenting offered words of comfort.

"Don't you want to know why a powerful organization like the Star Gazing Pavilion is suffering repeated defeats?"

Since the World Society and the Star Gazing Pavilion both belong to Li Chunfeng, the number one feng shui master of the Tang Dynasty, why is the World Society so powerful?

Do they possess some kind of forbidden secret?

Why do they dare to act so aggressively and even unscrupulously?

We need to find out the truth, not only for the honor of the Murong family, but also to understand what kind of enemy we are about to face.

Aren't they interested in my eyes that can see through things that ordinary people can't?

I'll take this opportunity to get closer to them.

The secrets they want to uncover through my eyes may very well be the secrets we also want to know.

Ye Tian's words made Murong Zhenting's gaze towards him much more complicated.

"That is indeed a solution, but doing it this way is like asking a tiger for its skin."

A look of worry appeared on the old man's face.

"Yes, that's too dangerous, absolutely not."

Murong Xue's beautiful face was filled with worry and fear.

"Don't worry, I will be fully prepared before setting off again."

I'm about to go to Diancheng, and I'm sure I'll run into them.

I will act according to the circumstances.

"Nothing ventured, nothing gained!"
