Andrew Han sensed briefly, then nodded: "It really does contain a vast trove of Celestial Ancient Jade—enough to buy an entire star system. It must have been deliberately hidden in her hair by some unknown Stellar Palace-tier expert."
So frightened?
The lights aboard the vessel flickered intermittently. Finch Huang stared blankly at Liam Yuan. A dignified Cosmos Union-tier expert was actually giving a Starlight-tier cultivator a fawning smile, his words faintly tinged with pleading.
The red-haired elder, Liam Yuan, spoke in a veiled manner—
It was nothing more than having both elders and children to care for, a large family relying on him. For survival, for livelihood, he had no choice but to do this.
Did you bring this Fusion-tier girl with you not for the Celestial Ancient Jade hidden on her?
"I don't want the Celestial Ancient Jade anymore." Liam Yuan walked over with a nervous smile—his brutal beast-like demeanor now replaced by that of a cautious elder. He spoke earnestly: "They say those pieces of Celestial Ancient Jade are equivalent to the full fortune of a Cosmos Union-tier cultivator. Finch Huang, if you're interested, I'll search every inch of this vessel today and find the Celestial Ancient Jade for you." His offer further highlighted the terrifying mystery of Finch Huang's origins.
His implication, of course, was to gift it to Finch.
Such a precious treasure would tempt any ordinary Cosmos Union-tier cultivator.
Finch neither knew nor cared about its value; she hurriedly waved her hands and refused, "No need, no need."
So many lives had been lost over the Celestial Ancient Jade—Finch would never accept it.
"Alright, alright."
Liam Yuan's attitude was excessively deferential as he rubbed his hands together, squeezing past Soraya Stine at Finch's side. Yet Soraya's graceful figure froze in place, utterly stiff, unable to move.
Hm?
Liam Yuan's expression turned cold as he frowned and glanced at Soraya Stine, but ultimately did not dare to start another massacre.
He shoved Soraya Stine aside with one hand.
Pushed aside, Soraya Stine could only stare in shock at the scene unfolding before her. Andrew Han's laughter nearly shook the vacuum. He ruffled Finch Huang's hair and casually tossed her the storage device, his voice gentle: "Take it, Finch Huang. This little thing isn't even worth my attention."
"Cosmos Union? Is he even a real Cosmos Union-tier? What kind of background does Finch Huang really have?" Countless questions flooded her mind, guessing at Finch Huang's origins and the unfathomable mystery of her master, Andrew Han.
She was not alone—everyone present felt the same.
"Who is Finch Huang?"
