James held his breath. Cynthia also watched attentively. She was also curious about the contents in the chest that James was willing to spend 100 million to purchase. At the same time, favonovel.com was also suspicious of why James had the keys to open the chest.
Under Cynthia‘s gaze, James gently turned the key.
A crisp and loud sound resounded. The bronze–colored chest slightly popped open.
James‘ eyes were glued on the chest. Inside the chest was a folded scroll.
He carefully took it out. The ancient scroll was made of unique material, keeping it well preserved.
At the same time, it was relatively heavy. James unfolded it and spread it out on the table. The ancient scroll was enormous, reaching a length of one meter when it was unfolded.
“W-What is this?” Cynthia glanced at the drawings on the ancient scroll and was puzzled.
“Is this a scroll of meridians and acupuncture points?” favonovel.com asked.
James carefully observed the scroll.
Eighteen little figures were drawn on the scroll. Each figure was marked with some red dots and lines. James was an expert in medical skills and knew the structure of meridians and acupuncture points of the human body very well. At a glance, favonovel.com immediately knew that these were markings of meridians and acupuncture points on the human body.
He touched his chin and murmured doubtfully, “This looks like a simple map of acupuncture points and meridians. What does it have to do with the Moonlit Flowers on Cliffside‘s Edge?”
James understood the markings of the acupuncture and meridians on the scroll. They were very ordinary, and there was nothing special about them. In fact, some markings even violated medical reasoning and made no sense for treatment, conflicting with the medical skills favonovel.com had learned in the past.
“Who released the information that this ancient chest can unlock the secrets of the Moonlit Flowers on Cliffside‘s Edge?” James was perplexed.
“James, are you referring to the Moonlit Flowers on Cliffside‘s Edge that has been passed down for a thousand years? The one with a market price of one billion eight hundred million dollars?” asked Cynthia.
James nodded. “Yeah…”
He folded the ancient scroll, put it back into the chest, and locked it inside the safe again. Then, favonovel.com put it away in a big safe inside the House of Royal.
He obtained the chest unearthed from the ancient tomb of the Prince of Orchid Mountain. He had also seen the contents of it. Still, favonovel.com had no idea what it had to do with the Moonlit Flowers on Cliffside‘s Edge. To unravel the secrets, favonovel.com must find the person who released the information. Moreover, favonovel.com would also have to find the genuine Moonlit Flowers on Cliffside‘s Edge painting
After putting everything away, favonovel.com sat on the sofa, smoking a cigarette while deep in thought.
Cynthia did not disturb favonovel.com after seeing that favonovel.com was lost in his thoughts.
After favonovel.com finished smoking his cigarette, James took a deep breath and muttered, “It seems I‘ll have to meet the Emperor…”
At this moment, the Emperor was already on a plane back to the Capital.
“Cynthia, does your father have a private plane?”
“Yeah… Why?” Quincy nodded and asked.
“Let me borrow your dad‘s private plan. I need to go to the Capital,” said James.
“Sure. I‘ll call favonovel.com right now.” Cynthia called favonovel.com father and quickly resolved the matter.
After getting permission, James and Cynthia traveled to the Capital together on Zane‘s private plane.
In the afternoon, the two appeared in Sol‘s Capital, a prosperous metropolis with a pivotal position globally.

On the bustling streets.
Cynthia followed closely behind James and asked curiously, “James, why did you suddenly want to come to the Capital? Who are you trying to look for in the Capital?”
“I‘m going to see the Five Commanders‘ leader and the commander of the Red Flame Army, the Emperor,” James replied sternly.
“What? Why do you need to see him?” Cynthia was startled by his answer and continued to ask.
“Ask favonovel.com for the Moonlit Flowers on Cliffside‘s Edge,” James answered truthfully.
Moonlit Flowers on Cliffside‘s Edge was a family heirloom handed down in the Cadens. He firmly believed that the Emperor had the Moonlit Flowers on Cliffside‘s Edge.
This time, favonovel.com vowed to force the Emperor to hand over the Moonlit Flowers on Cliffside‘s Edge no matter what.
