Seeing that Xu Changping clearly had no intention of getting involved in these matters, Master Yang San couldn't help but pull up the corners of his already upturned mouth into a faint smile.

He raised his hand with a relaxed look, waved casually at the two burly men standing at the door like two door gods, and ordered, "Take this man away and lock him up. You stay over there and don't need to come over here. Keep a close eye on him and don't let him run away."

After receiving the order, the two bodyguards immediately looked at each other in understanding. There was no need for any extra words between them. They strode forward and took the controlled person from Xu Changping in a clean and neat manner. Then they quickly left the scene with the person as if they were escorting a prisoner.

Taking advantage of this gap, Xu Changping subtly winked at Yang Xiaoyue who was standing beside him, asking her with his eyes whether she had given the jade pendant to Master Yang Sanye.

When he saw Yang Xiaoyue shook her head slightly, Xu Changping immediately understood the current situation, so he turned to face Mr. Yang Sanye and said calmly: "It's too messy here, let's go to Xiaoyue's house to talk about anything."

Hearing Xu Changping's proposal, Uncle Yang San was not polite to him at all. He put his hands behind his back, held his head high and walked out of Xu Changping's house first.

Seeing this, Yang Xiaoyue exchanged a quick glance with Xu Changping, then hurriedly raised her legs to catch up with Yang Sanye's pace. The three of them walked towards Yang Xiaoyue's home together.

Because they arrived in a hurry, the door of Yang Xiaoyue's house was not locked and was just ajar.

When Mr. Yang San came to the door, he pushed it open without any courtesy and strode into the room, sitting on the sofa with his arms and legs stretched out.

His eyes were like an eagle's, quickly glancing at Xu Changping who was standing in front of him, but he was not in a hurry to talk about the jade pendant, nor did he make any explanation about the middle-aged woman who had just appeared and the mysterious black shadow last night.

On the contrary, an interested smile appeared on his face, and he asked in a relaxed tone: "You are Xiao Yue's fiancé, right?"

Hearing this, Xu Changping cleared his throat slightly, nodded politely and said, "It's me, nice to meet you, Third Master."

Although he was not sure about the intention and purpose of Mr. Yang Sanye, considering that he was an elder in Yang Xiaoyue's family, he tried his best to remain humble and polite, not wanting to embarrass Yang Xiaoyue or put her in an awkward situation because of his words and actions.

At this time, Master Yang San's gaze slowly shifted to Yang Xiaoyue, who looked a little nervous, and a barely perceptible cunning light flashed in his eyes.

The corners of his mouth slightly raised, revealing an amiable smile, and he said kindly: "Don't be so reserved, come sit down and talk, am I going to eat you?"

Although Mr. Yang behaved so kindly, no one present could figure out what intentions were hidden behind his actions.

However, Yang Xiaoyue did not seem to intend to develop the plot as Yang Sanye expected.

She stretched out her hand without hesitation and pulled out the red rope hanging around her neck. As the red rope was pulled out, a crystal clear jade pendant emitting a faint luster appeared in front of everyone.

When Master Yang San's sight fell on the jade pendant, his eyes, which had been as calm as water, instantly lit up, as if he had discovered some rare treasure.

But he soon realized his mistake and quickly coughed to cover it up. Then he pretended to be calm and asked, "Is this the relic your father left for you?"

In fact, even people within the Yang family knew very little about the specific appearance of the jade pendant held by Yang Xiaoyue's mother.

Yang Xiaoyue held the warm jade pendant tightly in both hands, her eyes firm but with a hint of sadness, and she said softly: "Yes, this is what my father left me."

However, only she knew that what she was holding in her hand was not the real original jade pendant, but the one carefully imitated by Xu Changping. The real original jade pendant had been carefully stored in her own space a long time ago.

An indescribable complex expression appeared on the face of Master Yang San, who was leaning on the sofa.

He narrowed his eyes slightly, as if he was lost in distant memories. After a long time, he slowly opened his mouth and said in a low and slow voice:

"In fact, your father and mother had no choice but to leave. Behind the jade pendant in your hand, there is a huge fortune that is enough to shake the world."

Mr. Yang Sanye's sudden words were like a thunderclap, exploding in the ears of Xu Changping and Yang Xiaoyue.

The two looked at each other in astonishment. They had never expected that Master Yang San would suddenly and without warning reveal the unknown secret and amazing uses behind the jade pendant.

Yang Xiaoyue's beautiful eyes were wide open, full of confusion. She stared at Mr. Yang and asked, "What do you mean by that? Are you trying to give me a portion of this wealth?"

Master Yang sighed softly, revealing a bit of helplessness in his tone: "It's not a bad idea to give you a share. Originally, I did intend to take this jade pendant and leave directly, but just now, I saw the martial arts you two displayed, which made me reconsider this matter."

Xu Changping turned his head to look at Yang Xiaoyue beside him, and their eyes seemed to convey some kind of tacit understanding.

Then, he turned around and looked directly at Mr. Yang San, and asked calmly: "So, what do you mean by saying this? Are you inviting us to go and look for this treasure together?"
