Chapter 346

Han Xin seems to have grasped this opportunity.

The next day, when Su Xuan met Wang Xuan Jian again, Wang Xuan Jian spoke very highly of him and prepared to grant him a position within the army.

Su Xuan was not surprised by this.

Although the Han Xin of this moment had yet to become the future "Military Immortal" and appeared somewhat green, judging by the achievements he would attain in the future, his talent in the art of war was at the very least top-tier.

Regarding Han Xin, although Su Xuan had brought him into the Yin-Yang School, he did not intend to take him back to teach him Yin-Yang arts.

Within the art of war, there are schools such as "Military Situation" and "Military Yin-Yang"; without a doubt, Han Xin was better suited for the army.

The present moment was a good opportunity.

Although Wang Xuan Jian had breached Shouchun and captured the King of Chu and others, the captives had not yet been escorted to Qin, so the State of Chu could not be considered completely destroyed. Han Xin joining the Qin army at this time could barely be considered catching the last train to the destruction of Chu; although he had not performed any meritorious service, he had added a line to his own resume.

After making some arrangements for Han Xin.

Su Xuan did not forget his primary purpose.

He had returned to the State of Chu because he had learned the secret of the Seven Luminaries of the Azure Dragon from the mouth of Lord Lord Changping.

Lord Lord Changping's plans were far-reaching; in the present age, although his various schemes had all come to naught because of Su Xuan, in the original story, even though he himself died, the many contingencies he left behind still directly or indirectly influenced many people.

Because of Mi Hong Lian, Su Xuan chose to believe what Lord Lord Changping had said.

This was also the first secret about the Seven Luminaries of the Azure Dragon he had learned—no, it should be said, the most detailed one.

If one spoke only of the Seven Luminaries of the Azure Dragon, he was actually no stranger to this object.

Whether it was the fact that this object ran through the entire original story, or the things Tian Ze had told him back in the State of Han to repay him, all were related to the Seven Luminaries of the Azure Dragon.

"Now that the State of Chu has just been destroyed, many captives have not yet been escorted to Xianyang, and the items in the Chu Wang Gong have all been strictly sealed; the timing is just right!"

Su Xuan sighed softly.

He did not tell Wang Xuan Jian his purpose for this trip, nor did he even inform Lady Dongjun Yanfei of his goal.

That night.

He feigned meditation, but suddenly executed the Art of Divine Travel; his soul left his body and immediately drifted toward the national treasury of the State of Chu.

The State of Chu was vast, and within its national treasury were many rare treasures.

After Su Xuan arrived, the first things to catch his eyes were the many gold, silver, and treasures.

But his true goal was not these things.

Rather, he needed to find a single pearl among the many gold, silver, and treasures!

The State of Chu once possessed two treasures, collectively known as the "Two Treasures of the Spring and Autumn Period." The first was the He Clan Jade; the He Clan Jade was originally owned by Chu, but later Chu accidentally lost it, and it was obtained by the State of Zhao. Zhao was once coerced by Qin to hand over the He Clan Jade, but in the end, because of Lin Xiangru, the object did not fall into the hands of Qin—but that was only for the time being.

After the Battle of Lord Changping, in order to prevent being destroyed by Qin, Zhao had no choice but to bring the object out again and offer it to Qin.

Therefore, this object ultimately fell into the hands of Qin.

And besides the He Clan Jade, the other of the "Two Treasures of the Spring and Autumn Period" was called the "Sui Hou Pearl." Legend has it that in ancient times, the Marquis of Sui, a ruler of the State of Sui, saw a wounded giant snake in great pain by the roadside during a trip. The Marquis of Sui felt compassion, ordered someone to apply medicine and bandage the snake, and released it back into the grass. After the giant snake recovered, it carried a night-luminescent pearl to the Marquis of Sui's residence, claiming it was the son of the Dragon King and that this pearl was a token of gratitude. This was the Sui Hou Pearl, known as the "Pearl of the Spirit Snake."

Later, King Wu of Chu attacked Sui, and after several stubborn resistances, Sui was defeated by Chu, and the Sui Hou Pearl also fell into the hands of Chu.

This object was treated as a national treasure by Chu and stayed in Chu for several hundred years. Unfortunately, Qin had a ruler, Qin King Zhaowang, and Qin King Zhaowang also had a powerful henchman, Bai Qi.

As Bai Qi attacked Chu, Chu was forced to move its capital, and the Sui Hou Pearl was lost in the war, falling into the hands of Qin.

It can be said that the "Two Treasures of the Spring and Autumn Period" that once came from Chu both fell into the hands of Qin, either directly or indirectly, because of Bai Qi.

But if it were just that, it would be one thing.

The key is that there is more to the story of the Sui Hou Pearl.

Here, one must mention a person, and that is Lord Lord Changping's father, King King Kaolie of Chu.

King King Kaolie of Chu was the son-in-law of Qin King Zhaowang and was highly valued by him. Back when Bai Qi attacked Chu and seized the Sui Hou Pearl, he had seen that national treasure of Chu, and ever since then, he had never forgotten it.

Later, he finally found an opportunity.

Before Huang Huang Xie helped him escape from Chu, he secretly took the object back. Because the escape was hasty and he could not take his wife and children, he went alone to find the young Lord Lord Changping and told him a secret.

For many years, Lord Lord Changping had firmly kept his father's words in mind.

The Seven Luminaries of the Azure Dragon of Chu were related to the "Sui Hou Pearl"!

Su Xuan's soul searched for a long time in the Chu national treasury. Fortunately, Wang Xuan Jian had only just breached Shouchun and temporarily had no time to inventory the wealth and treasures in the Chu treasury; otherwise, it would not have been so easy for Su Xuan to find the Sui Hou Pearl.

Until he saw an object on a shelf at the end of the treasury.

"Found it!"

Although it was packed in a box, Su Xuan, relying on his powerful soul strength, could see directly through the box.

Afterward, Su Xuan's soul drifted in front of the box.

With the help of his soul power, he executed the "Pot Heaven" technique for the first time!

In an instant, his soul swayed, ripples appeared on his soul body, and then, the box containing the Sui Hou Pearl vanished.

In the room, Lady Dongjun Yanfei accompanied Su Xuan, acting as his protector.
