Chapter 1743: Chapter 1681: Eagle Hall
Is this the Seal of the Eagle Hall? The thing Ah Jiu and the others have been desperately searching for?
Wufu glanced at it and said, "This shabby ring is the Seal?"
Before Ah Jiu could reply, Hua Wushuang interjected, "Shabby ring? This ring is made of the hardest mysterious iron, extremely precious in material, and its engraving is intricate. It was carved using a masterâs secret technique, resonating with the unique runes of the Eagle Hall to verify authenticity."
Hua Wushuang took the ring, walked to the window, and tilted it to catch the light. As the light refracted, the patterns on the ring projected onto the seemingly simple design on his clothing, revealing a fleeting silver eagle.
Wufu and Ah Jiu were dumbfounded.
"Wait, you-- Eagle Hall?" Wufu frowned.
Good grief, this is ridiculous, is this really how it plays out?
Hua Wushuang looked at them with a complicated gaze and said, "I didnât expect the Seal to end up with you." After saying this, he glanced down at the ring and chuckled softly, "It seems fate has its own master; everything seems orchestrated by the heavens."
Wufu and Ah Jiu exchanged a look, both seeing confusion in each otherâs eyes.
"You wouldnât be telling me the Mei Family is actually the Eagle Hall, would you?" Wufuâs mouth twitched, and if that was the case, she really had to reconsider whether Changsheng should become the Mei Familyâs heir.
Hua Wushuang sat down and invited them to do the same, and then questioned them, "Why couldnât the Mei Family be the Eagle Hall?"
"Eagle Hall has been hidden away for years without any sign, only showing signs in recent years, while the Mei Family has always been in the marketplace..." Ah Jiu hesitated to say.
Regarding the Mei Family, they had naturally investigated it, knowing it had always existed, seeming low-profile, just trailing behind major families, yet standing firm for hundreds of years, never wavering, never prominent either.
"True wisdom hides in the city." Hua Wushuang interrupted, "Every generation of Eagle Hall has an Eagle Master, a hundred years ago, it was the Mei Familyâs patriarch who succeeded, and besides the core members, even the Mei Familyâs own clan believes they are merely ordinary merchants, which is the surface story."
"And secretly, youâre in the dark?" Wufu said.
Hua Wushuang glared at her and said, "Secretly, the Mei Family has always adhered to the ancestral legacy."
"Ancestral legacy?"
"When the people suffer and lives are wasted, choose a wise master to unify the world."
Wufu snorted and said, "Nanyue Court is so corrupt now, why havenât you acted?"
Hua Wushuang gave her a bland look and said, "How do you know we havenât acted? If not for the excessive corruption and indulgence of the Nanyue Court in the past two years, the Eagle Mark would not have appeared."
"But you havenât chosen a master either." Ah Jiu frowned and said, "Iâve been searching for this Eagle Mark for years, only recently finding traces of it. You speak of choosing, yet thereâs been no action."
Hua Wushuang took a sip of tea and said, "The fate of Nanyue is not exhausted."
Ah Jiu choked.
After hearing this, Wufu said, "Is that the reason youâre still observing?"
Hua Wushuang replied, "Itâs not about observing; the global situation has its own direction. Though the Emperor Star is dim, it hasnât fallen. Hence, the Eagle Hall will not take any action."
Wufu rolled her eyes and nudged Ah Jiuâs side, "See? I was right back then; donât pin your hopes on others. What others have is nothing compared to having it yourself."
"Wufu..." Ah Jiu sighed helplessly.
Wufu muttered, "Iâm not wrong; didnât you see their righteous appearance, impartial to anyone, just watching the trends."
Ah Jiu looked somewhat amused and exasperated.
