A few people simply packed up and prepared to go down the mountain.

Not long after going down the mountain, they received news from Black Flame again.

Looking at the content of the message, Chu Nanxing immediately frowned.

[The third task: Go to the safe No. [-] in Mingyue Pavilion to pick up something, and deliver it to the big tree in the east of Liushui Town, and bury the thing under the tree. 】

This mission looks very business-like, and there is no trace of Hei Yan's previous style.

It was as if the person behind the jade pendant had changed.

Realizing this, Chu Nanxing immediately frowned.

"What is hidden under the ground at the old site? What are the things in that box? Why do you want me to pick up this box? What is the significance of the things inside?"

Chu Nanxing asked Hei Yan's jade pendant one question after another.

But the jade pendant never lit up.

The people from Black Flame didn't give any answer.

They acted as if they never existed, letting Chu Nanxing's questions keep popping up.

Not getting an answer all the time, Chu Nanxing's appearance was very ugly, but he had no choice but to do as the other party said.

Mingyue Pavilion is a very famous company that stores objects in the imperial capital.

This company is very secretive, and no one knows who the real owner is behind it.

As long as things are placed on their territory, no one can go to Mingyue Pavilion to get anything without corresponding procedures.

Chu Nanxing had no idea what Hei Yan and the others had stored in Mingyue Pavilion, let alone what methods they would use to obtain them.

This troubled her a little.

But now, no matter how troubled she is, there is no way to solve the trouble in front of her.

She planned to leave for Mingyue Pavilion first.

Only by confirming what conditions are needed for what she wants to take can she proceed with the next plan.

Mingyue Pavilion has branches all over the country, and there happens to be a Mingyue Pavilion in the city where they are now.

Chu Nanxing didn't want to travel all the way to the Imperial Capital to inquire about this matter, so he went to Mingyue Pavilion as soon as possible.

She simply stated her purpose of coming.

The person in charge of receiving her at Mingyue Pavilion frowned immediately after hearing her intention.

"Ms. Chu, if you want to take away previously stored objects from us, you need to go through relevant procedures. One is the jade pendant that was originally issued, and the other is to accurately tell the stored code."

Chu Nanxing had neither of these two things.

She rubbed her brows a little irritably, not knowing how to solve the situation in front of her.

"Do you need these two things? Is there anyone who doesn't have these two things and can take them from here? The objects they saved before!"

When Chu Nanxing said this, the person in charge in front of him was a little surprised, but he still shook his head and said with a bit of satisfaction, "Sorry, Miss Chu."

"For safety reasons, we will not allow anyone to take anything from us without any formalities. This is also our responsibility to the customers who store things with us." Hearing this, Chu Nanxing couldn't help but feel a headache.

She didn't waste any more time here, nodded and turned around to leave.

Returning to his temporary residence, Chu Nanxing told Yunnan the situation and asked, "Is there a way to invade their protection system?"

Yunnan shook his head and said with a wry smile, "Mingyue Pavilion suddenly appeared 20 years ago. Not long after he appeared, many people tried to invade their protection system, but no one succeeded."

"Ten years ago, when I was young and vigorous, I did a similar move. Not only was it unsuccessful, I almost got myself into trouble. Fortunately, Jingmo helped me, otherwise you wouldn't be able to see me now."

This can be said to be very serious.

Yunnan's ability to actually say such a thing is enough to prove how powerful the power behind Mingyue Pavilion is.

Chu Nanxing looked at Yunnan in disbelief and asked, "Is Mingyue Pavilion really so capable? I remember that you are very good at investigating information, aren't you?"

When Yunnan heard this question, he smiled bitterly and said, "Before this, I always felt that I was omnipotent. As long as it was the news I wanted to know, I could get it at my fingertips."

"But the investigation into Mingyue Pavilion made me suffer enough. From that day on, I became much more cautious and never dared to act haphazardly again."

Yunnan noticed the disapproval on Chu Nanxing's face, sighed and said, "I know you haven't experienced those things personally, and you may not believe what I say, but we are grasshoppers on the same rope, and I don't have to Lying to you about something like this.”

"I still had Jingmo to protect me back then. If you anger Mingyue Pavilion now, no one will protect us anymore."

They have enough troubles already, they can't afford new troubles.

Chu Nanxing was still a little ready to make a move, but when he heard Yunnan's words, he suddenly became dejected.

She realized that she didn't have any trump cards now, and she couldn't do anything she wanted to do. She could only become a marionette in the hands of others.

But Hei Yan didn't provide him with any evidence that he could go to Mingyue Pavilion to retrieve the items. How was she going to solve the predicament at hand?

The more Chu Nanxing thought about it, the more confused he became.

Hei Yan seemed to be aware of Chu Nanxing's confusion, and the jade pendant she was carrying suddenly lit up.

[The voucher for Mingyue Pavilion is a jade pendant, and the thing you want to go to is an ebony box. 】

Chu Nanxing originally thought that he would need to think for a while to get the clues, but he didn't expect that the other party would send the clues he wanted so readily.

She hadn't even asked her question yet.

Chu Nanxing was very confused about the situation in front of him, and he didn't understand why the people in Black Flame were so kind.

After all, this task is difficult to say or not. The difficulty is that you have to guess what the object is and find the proof of the object.

But now, the other party has told him all the information he needs, so he doesn't have to confirm the information himself, which saves him a lot of trouble.

Speaking of the jade pendant related to them, the only jade pendant in my hand that is used for communication.

Chu Nanxing estimated that the jade pendant in his hand was most likely the voucher used to retrieve the so-called ebony box.

Of course, whether her suspicion is true still needs to be verified in person at Mingyue Pavilion.

More than this matter, what Chu Nanxing wanted to confirm more was why Heiyan and the others took the initiative to provide him with information?

She asked about her confusion, but the other party had no intention of answering her.

The jade pendant flashed a light, disappeared instantly, and returned to its previous calm state.
