At that moment, Charlie instinctively reached into his trouser pocket.


    He felt the ring that Lin Wan’er (ni) had given him. Although he still hadn’t figured out its purpose, he always kept it close, afraid that it might slip away or get lost.


    The reason Charlie held this ring in such high regard wasn’t due to its material value, but rather the immense amount of spiritual energy he had invested in it. If that energy were to be equated tobor, it would represent nearly three years of hard work, and yet he hadn’t received anything in return.<fn8a24> Readplete version only at FιndNovel</fn8a24>


    Thus, it was only natural for him to ensure that this precious item remained under his control.


    Feeling a wave of relief as he confirmed the ring was still there, Charlie couldn’t help but think about the girl named Lin Wan’er (ni).<h3 style="background-color:DodgerBlue">


    He found himself puzzled over what made this ring and the girl so significant to attract the attention of the Lord of the Qing Dynasty.


    Regret washed over him for not asking Lin Wan’er (ni) more about it when they were in Northern Europe. He had already given her a psychological hint using spiritual energy and should have taken her to a secure location before conducting a thorough inquiry.


    Now, with Lin Wan’er (ni) missing and uncertain of her whereabouts, unraveling the mystery felt nearly impossible.


    Unbeknownst to Feng Zidong (Dax), the ring that Po Qinghui (Benn) had tirelessly sought was now nestled in Charlie’s jeans pocket.


    To Feng, Charlie was the child of an old friend whose parents had passed away, which naturally fostered a protective instinct in him. He said to Charlie, “Charlie, I’ve received word that there will soon be a significant crisis surrounding the Qing. You’ve had some friction with Poqing, and they will undoubtedly make an effort to find you. So, you must keep a low profile.”


    Curious, Charlie asked, “Uncle Feng, what major actions does Poqing have nned in the near future?”


    Feng Zidong (Dax) replied, “I don’t have all the details, but my father mentioned that the four Earls of the Qing Dynasty have emerged one after another. This is unprecedented in the history of the Qing. Their strength is now far beyond that of ordinary warriors, capable of taking the head of an enemy general from among thousands. If anyone bes their target, it could end very poorly for them!”


    “Taking the head of an enemy general from among thousands?” Charlie frowned, repeating the words to himself. He thought, “These four earls must be as skilled in aura as I am. If they focus solely on me, I still have confidence in my abilities. However, if they turn their attention to those around me, I fear I won’t be able to protect them…”


    So, Charlie inquired, “Uncle Feng, do you think the four earls havee out from the Qing Dynasty to search for that girl and the ring?”


    Feng Zidong (Dax) responded, “That seems likely. My father is not privy to much information, his level is far below these individuals.”<h3 ss="has-text-align-center wp-block-heading" id="chapter-list"><strong></strong>
