"S-Surely, you're jesting with us…" Tian Yanyu mumbled in a trembling voice.
"No, not at all. Take it. I have no need for a Divine-grade sword since I already have a much better one." Yuan calmly shook his head.
"..."
After a moment of silence, Tian Suyin spoke with a deep frown on her face, "Okay, what do you want from us?"
"What do you mean?"
"Are you telling me that you're going to hand over a Divine-grade treasure for free? I don't believe it. Sounds too good to be true."
Yuan shrugged, "Then I will leave it there and whoever is lucky enough will get it."
When she heard such words, Tian Suyin immediately rushed to pick up the sword before throwing it into her spatial ring.
"I guess I'm the fortunate one," she said with a stiff expression.
"Mother…" Tian Yanyu was left speechless by her actions.
"What are you looking at? He's the one who said he'd leave it there for anyone to pick up."
"Since you want it that badly, you can have it." Yuan smiled.
Tian Suyin cleared her throat but didn't say anything.
'I'm glad I stayed behind…' she smiled inwardly.
"What are you going to do now?" Tian Yanyu asked him. "Are you going to participate in the next treasure hunt as well?"
"No, I came here mostly just to make sure you were fine. Now that's done, I think I am going to do some exploring myself."
"I see…"
Tian Yanyu pondered for a brief second before opening her mouth again, "Do you mind if I followed you for a little?"
"Yanyu! You don't even know what kind of dangerous place he's going to! You're just going to be a burden!" Tian Suyin quickly rejected her request.
"I know, which is why I will only follow him until he leaves the outer area."
The Nameless Emperor's Tomb is split into three sections by the people; the outer area where it's the least dangerous; the inner area where only geniuses dare to enter; last but not least, the core area, a hellish area where most people that enter will never return.
"If it's just the outer area…" Tian Suyin felt a little more at ease after hearing this.
Furthermore, she wasn't completely opposed to following Yuan, as he was definitely powerful enough to protect them— even doing a much better job than the entirety of the Jade Sword Manor by himself.
Yuan began wandering the Nameless Emperor's Tomb shortly after while Tian Yanyu and Tian Suyin followed him from behind.
"There are actually a few places that I want to visit. In no particular order, the Sword Temple, Nine Swords Trial, and the Sword Pagoda." Yuan mumbled out loud as they moved.
