“No!” Ian Blade shook his head. “Since the incident half a month ago, no one from Cerulean Abyss Institute has come to the capital city!”
After saying this, he seemed to remember something and continued, “Boss, Ivy should have told you about the Dragon and Phoenix List, right?”
“Yeah,” Billy nodded in response. “Keep an eye on this matter, and let me know if there are any new developments.”
“Got it!” Both of them responded loudly.
On that afternoon, Billy and Stout bid farewell to the others and returned to Ozin with a few people. Ivy stayed in the capital city. In a few days, she would officially report to the Cabinet. For her, this was the beginning of a new journey.
At nine o’clock in the evening, Billy entered his home.
“Billy, you’re back?” Fletcher Knight and his wife, who were watching TV in the living room, greeted him as they saw Billy.
Billy had already called Harleen before coming home, so the family knew he would be back today.
“Dad, Mom!” Billy greeted them with a smile.
“Billy, have you had dinner?” Sharon continued to ask.
“I had dinner at SHADOW,” Billy replied with a smile.
“Papa!” As Billy changed his shoes, Tasha ran out of the room and directly into Billy’s arms.
“Tasha, did you miss Papa?” Billy smiled as he lifted the little girl.
He had been away from home for almost two months this time, and naturally, he missed his family.
“Of course, Papa! I dreamed of you for several days in a row!” Tasha vigorously nodded.
“Haha, really?” Billy laughed again. “Then Daddy will spend more time with you in the next few days.”
“That’s great!” Tasha exclaimed in joy.
“Billy, you’re back!” Harleen came out of the room and looked at Billy affectionately, softly saying, “Mmm!”
“Yeah.” Billy nodded and then asked, “Where’s Felicia? Not at home?”
“She went out to dinner with friends. It’s so late, and she hasn’t come back yet,” Sharon said as she poured a cup of tea for Billy.
“Thanks, Mom!” Billy took the tea and drank a sip.
“Papa, will you play with me and my toys?” In no time, Tasha pulled Billy towards her playroom.
“Sure!” Billy replied with a smile.
As the night fell, after dinner, Billy and Harleen went to bed.
“Billy, is Ian okay now?” Harleen, lying in Billy’s arms, asked.
Half a month ago, because Ian Blade was injured by people from Cerulean Abyss Institute, Billy went directly from Ink Pavilion headquarters to the capital city. Harleen and her sister followed Casey and Judge back to Ozin.
“Yeah, he’s fine now!” Billy smiled and nodded.
“Wife, you’ve been away for a month. Is everything okay with the company?” he asked.
“Everything is relatively stable in the company now. Your absence doesn’t have much impact.”
“That’s good!” Billy smiled in response.
“By the way, husband, there’s something I forgot to tell you,” Harleen seemed to suddenly remember something and said abruptly.
“What’s the matter?” Billy asked.
“Yesterday, Uncle Adam came to see me and Felicia.” Harleen said.
Since the last time in the capital city, Billy had told Harleen about Ether Mountain, so she knew about Adam Greenleaf’s existence.
“Oh?” Hearing Harleen’s words, Billy was slightly stunned.
Why would Uncle Adam come to see the two sisters?
After a brief pause, he continued to ask, “What did he want with you?”
“He asked us if we were interested in visiting Ether Mountain!” Harleen replied.
“Oh?” Billy was stunned again.
“He also gave me and Felicia some guidance.” Harleen continued.
“Is that so?” Billy smiled and said, “So, wife, how did you respond to Uncle Adam?”
“I was worried that if I agreed rashly, it might cause you trouble, so I said I would discuss it with you after you come back.” Harleen replied.
After saying this, she looked up at Billy. “Billy, what do you think Uncle Adam’s purpose is in inviting us to Ether Mountain? He must have a reason for inviting us!” she asked.
“I don’t know the specific reason, but it should be a good thing!” Billy smiled again. “I’ll call Uncle Adam tomorrow and ask.”
“Okay!” Harleen nodded and continued to ask, “Billy, is Stout’s elder sister in Ether Mountain?”
“Well…” Billy’s mouth twitched. “She used to be in Ether Mountain, but now she has officially left the mountain and is working in the capital city.”
“She went to the capital city?” Harleen paused. “Which company is she working for?”
“Uncle Adam helped her find a good job. I’ll take you to the capital city to meet her next time we have a chance.” Billy said again.
“That’s great!” Harleen nodded in response.
“It’s getting late. Shouldn’t we rest?” Billy looked at Harleen meaningfully.
“You rogue husband…” A blush appeared on Harleen’s face. Before she could finish her sentence, her sexy lips were sealed by Billy’s…
The next morning, after sending Tasha, Billy and Stout came to SHADOW.
Billy then called Adam.
“Young Master, you’re back in Ozin?” Adam’s voice came from the phone.
“Just arrived yesterday.” Billy smiled and said, “Uncle Adam, are you still in Ozin?”
“Yes!” Adam replied. “Young Master, are you at SHADOW now? Wait for me for a moment, I’ll come over.”
“Okay!” Billy smiled again and hung up the phone.
In less than an hour, Adam’s figure appeared at the gate of the SHADOW courtyard.
“Young Master!” Adam looked at Billy and smiled, then greeted Judge and Stout.
“Young Master, have you been to Place of Darkness in the past half a month? What happened over there?” After sitting down, Adam looked at Billy and asked.
Billy had not informed him about the matter of the fifth jade pendant, so he did not know the purpose of Billy’s trip.
“That’s right!” Billy smiled and nodded before explaining, “I went there this time to retrieve the fifth jade pendant!”
Before this, he couldn’t confirm the authenticity of the information, so he didn’t tell Adam about it. Now that everything was confirmed, there was nothing to hide.
“What?!” Adam looked at Billy in shock. “Young Master, do you mean that the fifth jade pendant is in the Place of Darkness?”
“Yeah.” Billy nodded and briefly described the situation.
“No wonder the capital city has been searching for it for so many years without results. It turns out that two or three decades ago, someone took two pieces to the Place of Darkness!” After listening to Billy’s explanation, Adam couldn’t help but sigh. After a moment of silence, he continued to look at Billy and asked, “Young Master, are you sure that the person who took the jade pendant from the hands of Death has the power of the Yin and Yang Tai Ji Diagram belonging to a real War God-Emperor?”
