"Why do you believe so firmly?" Feng Yexuan raised an eyebrow.
He himself did not wish for the treasure map to exist.
If this treasure map did not exist, perhaps it would not have caused so many disputes, nor would it have made people so troubled!
"Imperial Brother said that the legend of the treasure map is true, so it must be true."
Chu Wang believed this with such conviction, it was the greatest trust in his Imperial Brother.
Chu Qianli felt a warmth in her heart. Since Fourth Uncle trusted Father Emperor so much, no matter what happened in the future, he would definitely stand by Father Emperor's side and support him unconditionally.
With such a loyal Fourth Uncle who valued family affection, if she were not by Father Emperor's side in the future, she could at least rest assured.
Feng Yexuan remained silent, pouring himself a cup of tea and drinking it absently.
Chu Wang continued to study the Heaven and Earth Lock. After a long time, he still couldn't find any mechanism to open it.
Could it really be that hole, no bigger than the eye of a needle?
"I tried inserting a silver needle into this hole, and it seemed smooth inside. I couldn't see anything special about it."
Chu Qianli was also staring at the Heaven and Earth Lock.
After a while, Chu Wang was still unable to decipher the secret of the Heaven and Earth Lock, and felt a bit dejected.
"Perhaps, we should smash it open?"
What else could be done? The lock's surface truly had no treasure map on it!
Although, it might not be smashable.
"You can try," Chu Qianli said seriously, "Perhaps, there will be a secret after smashing it open."
"You don't mind? What if it gets damaged?" After all, this was given to her by a certain important senior. "If it gets damaged, how will you explain it to your senior?"
"He gave it to me, so it's mine. How I treat it is my business, and I don't need to explain anything."
Chu Qianli was nonchalant. "I can't smash it open anyway. Fourth Uncle, if you have a way, try smashing it open."
"Really?" Chu Wang still found it unbelievable.
This was a divine artifact! The treasure within the treasure map was said to be able to overthrow a nation.
After receiving Chu Qianli's affirmative reply, Chu Wang was overjoyed and eagerly held the Heaven and Earth Lock, ready to try.
Finally, after hesitating for a long time, he suddenly raised his hand and struck the table with a bang.
*Chih!*
A cup was unfortunately hit by the force of his palm and instantly cracked into several pieces.
One of the fragments splashed across the back of Feng Yexuan's hand.
"Fourth Uncle!" Chu Qianli was furious and grabbed Feng Yexuan's hand.
Blood was oozing from the back of his hand; he was injured!
"Iā¦ I didn't mean to!" Chu Wang hadn't realized he was so rough.
However, the table was cracked, the cup was shattered, and the flying porcelain shards had even injured Little Xuanzi, but the Heaven and Earth Lock remained completely undamaged.
He wondered what material it was made of. Even a slight deformation would have been fine! Why was there no change at all?
It made him seem like his martial arts were very poor.
"It's just a minor scratch, it's fine," Feng Yexuan lowered his gaze, looking at the girl who was about to apply medicine to him.
His mood instantly improved.
"It really doesn't matter, this little bit of blood will dry on its own."
On the other hand, looking at the Heaven and Earth Lock that showed no change, Feng Yexuan's thin lips curved upwards, and he looked at Chu Wang with a hint of provocation in his eyes.
"Let me try."
"Little Xuanzi, what do you mean by that?" Was he mocking him for not practicing martial arts enough?
Chu Wang was very angry!
But he still obediently handed the Heaven and Earth Lock to Feng Yexuan.
"Don't disgrace your reputation as Prince Xuan! Don't be like me, with no change at all!"
