Chapter 55 Jade Pendant Message

Chapter Fifty-Five: Jade Pendant Message

As night deepened, Dongfang Ke'er, dressed in a silk bathrobe, sat by the window in a daze, her slender fingers constantly turning a jade pendant in her hand.

"Master, what are you doing?"

She was extremely bored, so she rested her chin on her hand and spoke to the jade pendant.

"Practice!"

A sudden response startled Dongfang Ke'er, causing her to tremble and her shoulder strap to slip off.

She looked around nervously, but Zhuo Yang wasn't in her room.

"Master, can you talk to me?"

"Correct!"

Zhuo Yang's helpless voice came through, "Keep that jade pendant safe. You can use it to send messages. Even in places where there is no cell phone signal, or even on the far side of Earth, I can still contact you!"

When Zhuo Yang gave Dongfang Ke'er the communication jade pendant, he didn't tell her that it could be used to send messages, because he was afraid that she would use it to bother him. He didn't expect that the girl would figure out how to use it on her own.

The method of using the communication jade pendant is very simple. You need to carve a mark with your true essence beforehand, and when you use it, you can concentrate your mind and communicate with the person who made the jade pendant.

"Master, this thing is more convenient than a cell phone! It doesn't even need to be charged!" Dongfang Ke'er jumped up excitedly, feeling that she could contact Zhuo Yang anytime, anywhere, as if the person she loved was always by her side. She was so happy she felt like she could fly.

Zhuo Yang was increasingly helpless and said in a deep voice, "I need to cultivate. There's no need to forbid me from contacting you!"

"Mmm!" Dongfang Ke'er happily agreed, rolling around on the bed...

Zhuo Yang, who was at Villa No. 101 on the other side of the diving bay, breathed a sigh of relief and continued his cultivation.

Unexpectedly, the jade pendant on the table was brimming with energy, indicating that news had arrived.

Zhuo Yang frowned and placed his hand on the jade pendant. Immediately, Dongfang Ke'er's voice came through: "Master, what are you doing? Have you been missing me?"

Zhuo Yang's face immediately darkened, and he threw the jade pendant away in a flash.

"You brat, I knew you'd come to bother me. I shouldn't have given you the communication jade pendant!"

The jade pendants given to Wu Hongliang and Dongfang Jiye were warning pendants. If they encountered danger and broke the pendants, Zhuo Yang could sense it even from thousands of miles away.

The jade pendant, though lying on the ground, was still emitting bursts of energy, and messages kept coming in.

"Believe it or not, I'll block you!"

Helpless, Zhuo Yang picked up the jade pendant and roared.

The next moment, his face darkened. The voice coming from the jade pendant was that of Dongfang Ke'er, but the content was wrong!

"Master, this is strange. The manor has lost power. My father is directing the servants to check it out."

"The old housekeeper was directing people to set up the generator in the yard, but strangely, even after the generator was set up, there was still no power."

"Wow, the bodyguard's Rottweiler has gone mad! It actually bit its owner!"

"Why did one of the bodyguards collapse? I didn't see how he got injured. Was he poisoned?"

"Oh my god, a ghost! A vengeful ghost in red! Master, I have to go save Dad!"

The message ended there. Zhuo Yang stared at the jade pendant, his eyes surging with emotion.

"Ke'er, hang in there!"

Before the words were even finished, the person had already rushed out of the window, turning into a black shadow and heading straight for the diving bay.

As night falls, the diving bay is as calm as a lake, with gentle ripples adding a touch of romance to the night.

Suddenly, a dark shadow swept across the sea, leaving a white trail behind it.

……

At 11 p.m., the Dongfang family manor was shrouded in darkness. In the front yard, more than a dozen figures lay on the ground, their fates unknown.

A woman dressed in black with white hair walked to the villa gate and chuckled sinisterly, "That brat is actually a Foundation Establishment cultivator. I never thought that someone from the Dongfang family would also embark on the path of cultivation."

Several white figures suddenly appeared in mid-air, adding a touch of eeriness to the empty manor.

Fu Yayue walked into the villa, her sinister gaze sweeping over the area. She gave a heavy snort: "Search carefully. Find Dongfang Jiye and his daughter, and kill them!"

"Yes……"

The response was somber; several white figures drifted away, searching each room of the villa.

"Zhuo Yang, where are you? If you're so capable, don't hide. I haven't gotten my hands on a cultivator's soul in a long time. You're perfect for it. Why don't you offer your soul to me?" Fu Ya Yue sneered, her voice echoing throughout every corner of the villa as her true essence vibrated.

Hiding under the window of a room in the villa, Dongfang Ke'er covered her mouth in panic. She hadn't forgotten her father and carefully checked his injuries.

Dongfang Jiye seemed to have fallen into a deep coma, his breathing was weak, and he could not be woken up no matter what he did.

A short while later, the door was pushed open, and Dongfang Ke'er immediately held her breath and pinched her father's nose.

Looking out from under the bed, no one came in, and the air seemed to have turned very cold, giving me goosebumps.

Dongfang Ke'er forced herself to remain calm, gripped the communication jade pendant in her palm, and tried to circulate her vital energy to sense it.

With a sudden surge of energy, she sensed the situation inside the room: a sinister aura was hovering over the bed!

The next moment, a deathly pale face suddenly appeared in sight, with long hair hanging to the ground and bloodshot eyes on the face as it lay face down.

Dongfang Ke'er was almost scared to death, but at the critical moment she suppressed her fear and waved her hand to release a burst of colorful mist.

The pure true energy immediately repelled the evil spirit, which then crashed into the cabinet, shattering it.

Taking advantage of the opportunity, Dongfang Ke'er quickly crawled out from under the bed, rushed to the window without thinking, smashed the window, and jumped into the backyard.

The father hid under the bed, hoping the evil spirit wouldn't find him!

Using herself as bait, Dongfang Ke'er took off running. Sure enough, the evil spirit chased after her at an extremely fast speed, seemingly flashing several times in a short moment before appearing right in front of her.

"hehe……"

The evil spirit floated in mid-air, its white robes fluttering. It slowly turned around, revealing what appeared to be several different faces. A piece of each face was cut off and reassembled, then crudely stitched together.

It made a few strange and terrifying sounds, followed by several similar horrifying sounds coming from all directions.

Three more evil spirits appeared on the left, right, and behind!

Dongfang Ke'er was so shocked that her whole body stiffened, and she could barely control her true energy.

"Calm down, calm down, Dongfang Ke'er, you need to calm down!" she muttered softly, her eyes hardening. "Master said that no matter what happens, only by staying calm can we choose the right way to deal with it. I need to... calm down!"

A miracle occurred. She straightened her body little by little, and with a wave of her small hand, the seven-colored mist danced nimbly in her palm, completely without the previous flickering.

"Little girl, your talent is truly remarkable. At such a young age, you've already mastered the purest true essence. It truly impresses this old woman." Fu Yayue emerged from the back door of the villa, her figure almost as terrifying as a demon. "Unfortunately, you're a woman of the Dongfang family, destined to die tonight!"

"I'll ask you one last question: Where is Zhuo Yang? Tell me, and I'll give you a quick death!"
