Two hours later, the dinner was over, and everyone said goodbye and dispersed. 【】

In the main hall of the living room of the Yuan family, Xia Yan did not leave with Liu Yun and the others.

Throughout the night, Xia Yan wanted to find an opportunity to ask Master Liu Yun about Yuan Shan's father, but Yuan Shan was always on the side, and Xia Yan never found a chance.

There were several bright lights hanging on the walls, and at this time, only Mu Yue, Xia Yan and Yuan Shan were left in the main hall. When Michelle left, she didn't even say hello to Xia Yan. Although she knew very well that it was almost impossible for her and Xia Yan to be together, when Yuan Shan appeared, she couldn't calm her heart down at this dinner.

"Xia Yan, you come with me. Mu Yue said to Xia Yan, and then walked towards the outside of the main hall.

Xia Yan had no choice but to raise his heels, and Yuan Shan followed Xia Yan's side. Since her mother Mu Yue said those words to Xia Yan in the evening, Yuan Shan's words have been much less. She was extremely smart, but she still couldn't understand why her mother said those flowers to Xia Yan.

Leaving the main hall, the three of them walked towards the back of the courtyard, passing through some dark paths and gardens, and finally came to a small courtyard in the middle of nowhere. In this small courtyard, there is a pond, but there is no water in the pond, but a kind of precious trees are planted.

In the shadows, Mu Yue didn't speak all the time.

Suddenly, Mu Yue stopped.

By this time, the three of them had already walked along the stone slab to the center of the pond, which was a gazebo.

Mu Yue stretched out her hand and touched one of the pillars in the pavilion.

"Titicaca~"

A small grinding sound came out, and gradually, a door appeared in front of Mu Yue's body. Xia Yan could barely see that there were some stairs leading to the underground.

"Hall Master Mu Yue, where are you taking me? It seems that this should be a very secret place. Some of the surrounding areas are overgrown with weeds, and it seems that this yard is not often visited. Xia Yan's thoughts swirled, but he didn't ask out loud.

"The last time I was here was a year ago. Mu Yue didn't turn around, she seemed to be able to guess Xia Yan's thoughts, so saying this sentence just answered the doubts in Xia Yan's heart, "This courtyard, no one can approach, all the guards and servants are not allowed to enter the courtyard." Even Yuan Shan couldn't come in. ”

Yuan Shan nodded on the side, she didn't know what her mother was going to do.

She and her mother moved into this house two years ago, and Yuan Shan doesn't have many memories of this courtyard. It's just that her mother had told her not to approach this yard at will.

As she spoke, Mu Yue walked down the stairs.

Xia Yan also followed closely behind Mu Yue. Yuan Shan stretched out her jade hand and pulled Xia Yan's right arm, Xia Yan's body stiffened, but she didn't shake off Yuan Shan's little hand.

The three of them walked slowly downward, and there was some humidity in the air.

Finally, to the bottom.

"Boom!"

Mu Yue lit the fire and lit an oil lamp on the wall, and Xia Yan saw that it was a small square stone room. In the center of the stone room, there is a long black table.

On the long table, there is a flat round green jade.

The important thing is that on top of this green jade, there is also a crystal the size of a fist. Under the light of the lamp, the crystal reflects a field of colored light.

Mu Yue walked over and picked up the crystal.

"This stone is called the Stone of God. Yuan Shan's father and I got it six years ago. Mu Yue picked up the Divine Stone and said with his back to Xia Yan.

"Xia Yan, do you know what it's used for?" Mu Yue turned around, but Xia Yan could only see her side face.

Hearing her inquiry, Xia Yan shook his head, it was the first time he had heard of the Divine Stone. It seems that it is very important, otherwise Mu Yue would not have put the Divine Stone in such a hidden place.

"Hehe, of course you wouldn't know. In the past thousand years, on the Dragon Continent, only seven Divine Stones have appeared. Everybody wants to get the Divine Stone. Mu Yue smiled and said.

"Seven pieces, a thousand years?" Xia Yan's body shook, and he looked at the fist-sized black stone in surprise. The Stone of God itself is black, but in the light, it reflects colorful light, and even in the firelight, it also reflects colorful light.

What is the use of this stone?

"In order to obtain this Divine Stone, Yuan Shan's father and I went through nine deaths. In the end, we got the Divine Stone, and we all survived......" Mu Yue smiled bitterly, her voice stopped abruptly, as if she still had nothing to say.

Looking at the Divine Stone, Xia Yan seemed to be able to feel his heartbeat.

Yuan Shan, grasping Xia Yan's arm tighter, her big eyes fanning in the dim light.

"Divine Stone-" Mu Yue turned around again and looked at Xia Yan, "Xia Yan, do you know how the artifact is forged?"

Mu Yue asked abruptly.

Xia Yan was stunned, his brows furrowed, and he couldn't help but say in surprise, "Is it related to the Divine Stone?"

A few months ago, Xia Yan originally thought that there were only three artifacts on the Dragon Continent, but later he learned that there were more than just three artifacts on the Dragon Continent.

Now, listening to Mu Yue's meaning, it seems that the artifact is related to the Divine Stone.

"That's right!" Mu Yue nodded, her eyes changed, "Xia Yan, this long sword in your hand can be regarded as a rare sword, but even if it already has a spirit surname, it will never be able to become a real artifact." ”

At the beginning, when the Dawn Sword was cast, it was integrated with Xia Yan's essence blood. The Dawn Sword, after being successfully cast, has a certain spiritual surname. However, as Mu Yue said, it really wasn't an artifact.

God-level blacksmith Qiushui said at the time that it was second only to the three major artifacts.

However, the three major artifacts mentioned by Qiushui are only the three weapons on the mainland, namely the Thunder Sword, the Qiankun Knife and the Divine Dragon Whip. As for who these three artifacts are in now, Qiushui didn't mention it.

In the past few years, Xia Yan has hardly heard of the artifact, let alone seen it with his own eyes.

"However, if your Dawn Sword is fused with this Divine Stone, and if it is forged with the gold element, it can become a powerful and unrivaled artifact. Mu Yue took a step forward, less than a meter away from Xia Yan, her eyes fixed on Xia Yan's face.

"Xia Yan, do you want the Divine Stone?" asked Mu Yue's voice.

When Mu Yue was speaking, Xia Yan had been silent, and he was very shocked in his heart.

The artifact originally needed this kind of god stone to be fused and forged before it could be born. And in the past thousand years, there have only been seven god stones on the continent. In other words, on the Dragon Continent, there are up to seven artifacts up to now. However, this is also to add the artifact that the Divine Stone in front of him will be forged.

After pondering for a moment, Xia Yan said slowly, "There are many things I want on the Dragon Continent, but I can't want them all. Some things don't belong to me. ”

Say you don't want it, that's false.

Xia Yan, don't you want to have an artifact? Artifact, Xia Yan has never seen it with his own eyes until now, and he doesn't know what kind of power the real artifact contains.

However, Xia Yan could be sure that the artifact must have some kind of irresistible power.

"Well said, Xia Yan!" Mu Yue's eyes narrowed slightly, "If we could be like you at the beginning, then there wouldn't be a lot of things that would happen later." Alas......"

"Forget it, don't mention those. Mu Yue said, "Xia Yan, now this Divine Stone is yours." I don't need it anymore. Mu Yue handed the Divine Stone to Xia Yan.

Xia Yan, it's a little unbelievable!

Such a valuable thing, Mu Yue actually wanted to give it to herself. Although Xia Yan was still thinking in his heart, why Mu Yue wanted to bring himself to see this Divine Stone, but when Mu Yue said that he wanted to give him the Divine Stone, Xia Yan still couldn't help but tremble violently.

"Why?" Xia Yan didn't answer, but frowned and asked.

"You should have it!" Mu Yue said with a smile, "Moreover, you promised to protect the safety of my daughter Yuan Shan, this Divine Stone should be regarded as a reward, and you can't pay it in vain." ”

"Okay, don't say more, just follow it. Mu Yue immediately urged.

Xia Yan's left hand trembled slightly.

"Lord Mu Yue, I promised you, but that's ......" Xia Yan frowned.

"That's right, after I'm gone! Mu Yue said.

In the end, Xia Yan still took over the Divine Stone.

"Hall Master Mu Yue, what are you talking about taking a gold element?" Xia Yan remembered what Mu Yue said just now, it seems that there is another thing needed to cast an artifact.

"The gold element, hehe, this is simple, it is the element extracted from the gold coin. Mu Yue said, "You guys go out, I want to stay here alone for a while." Xia Yan, in the few days you go to the Holy Mountain, just accompany Yuan Shan. Over the years, Yuan Shan has not been in contact with many people since she was eight years old, and there are not many people who like her, she likes you. ”

Xia Yan felt that Yuan Shan's delicate body trembled slightly.

Xia Yan looked sideways at Yuan Shan, but Yuan Shan lowered his head, and Xia Yan didn't see what Yuan Shan's expression looked like at this time.

Hearing Mu Yue let them leave, Xia Yan responded.

The two of them walked out of the stone chamber of the underground palace.

"Brother Xia Yan, I think my mother is hiding something from me, why did she say those things to you like that at the dinner party?"

Yuan Shan's voice has a special charm that makes people can't help but be moved. Soft, fluffy, sweet.

"I don't know. Xia Yan didn't know what to say. The performance of the hall master of Mu Yue was indeed a little abnormal, and she always felt as if she was in a hurry to explain some things and arrange a way back for Yuan Shan.

However, Xia Yan still couldn't understand who and what forces could threaten her with her strength and status? Xia Yan didn't understand, and Yuan Shan didn't understand why her mother did this.

Yuan Shan knew her mother, she knew that her mother didn't say, even if she asked, there would be no results.

"Let's go back to Ziyue Restaurant, Master, they all live in Dichun Garden, and there are many rooms in Dichun Garden. Yuan Shan, if you think it's okay, you can live with us in Dichun Garden these days. Xia Yan said to Yuan Shan with a deep groan.

Yuan Shan naturally nodded in response.
