Chapter 1451
Taufeeq looked a little awkward when he heard that. Clearing his throat, he red at his daughter.
"ra, pipe down, will you."
Zelson interrupted, "ra, don''t you know how much your father has sacrificed for this ess?
How can he simply give it away?"
She raised her head, pursed her lips and said stubbornly, "So what? No matter how precious the
ess is, it will always be second to our lives. Brother Chen saved us. I still think this ess is too
shabby a repayment for his tremendous kindness."
Taufeeq choked on his words. "This, this..." The awkwardness on his face had turned more obvious.
If he had someone to help him, not only would he avoid putting them at a disadvantage, he would
definitely repay them.
But the point was that the token of appreciation in question was much too precious; it was the
ess used to explore the Dragon Mausoleum which the Moo family had spent a painstaking effort
to obtain. If he had to use it to repay his debt of gratitude, his heart wouldn''t be all that willing.
Horgan persuaded her, "ra, enough. Whether that guy deserves this expensive a return of
gratitude or not, it is strange that he happened to appear when we were in danger. It is such a
coincidence for him to have defeated the enemy and saved us."
"Horgan, what are you trying to imply? Are you suspicious of Brother Chen?" Upon hearing his
words, ra''s feathers were ruffled. She red at him with tears gleaming in her eyes and
questioned him harshly.
At the sight of this, Horgan became a bit annoyed. The woman he had taken a fancy to valued
another man so much. He cut a nce at Fade, his expression gloomy.
Looking at ra being so protective of him, Fade felt a sense of warmth welling up in his heart.
He stretched out his hand, patted her on the head, and said with a smile, "ra, don''t be angry. I''m
fine."
"But, Brother Chen, you..." She looked at him, tears brimming in her eyes.
He smiled again and said, "It''s alright. They are just worried that I''m scheming something to gain the
ess token that they possess. Frankly speaking, however, I have not the slightest interest in that
item at all. I already have the ess token to explore the Dragon Mausoleum myself. Why would I
scheme against them?"
Several people were astounded to hear it. They looked at Fade, their eyes full of surprise.
Her eyes were brimming with surprise and joy as well. "Really? You have a token too? That''s great.
When we get there, we can explore the Dragon Mausoleum together."
However, no one else shared her sheer exhration.
Horgan''s face was full of suspicion as he whispered, "ra, don''t be fooled. We know very well that
the Dragon Mausoleum ess token is very precious. He must be joking, saying that he has it."
Zelson interrupted, "Are you trying to use this as an excuse to paralyze us and let our guards down?
If that''s what you think, then I can tell you that you''re still too amateurish. You can''t fool us."
Fade shook his head. He couldn''t be bothered to pay attention to these self-righteous guys.
He nced at ra, smiled and waved his hand, "I''ll hit the road then."
"Brother Chen, I..." She replied reluctantly as she watched him leave.
Fade smiled. "We will meet again at the Dragon Mausoleum."
His figure was swallowed by the dark forest and soon disappeared.
nkly, ra stared at the direction in which he had left, unwilling to leave for a long time.
Taufeeq came over and said, "ra, it''s gettingte. It''s time for us to set off."
"Hmph!" She snorted and red at him. Then, she turned around and walked away, giving him the
cold shoulder.
He sighed helplessly.
Surprisingly, Horgan was the one tofort him. "Mr. Moo, don''t worry. ra is still young, so she
doesn''t understand your painstaking efforts. She will see the light as years wear by."
"Fingers crossed," Taufeeq said with a long sigh before stepping out.
Fade rushed through the night after leaving ra and the others. By the time the sky brightened, he
had already arrived at his destination.
There was a valley with a thousand square meters of open space where the trees and vegetation
had been flourishing due to human settlement.
Many people had already showed up there. Some were resting in tents, some had set up little stalls
while a few others were resting on the ground with their eyes closed. All in all, it was quite an
underwhelming scene.
Many people were on the east side of the open space while only a few were on the other side. A
make-shift fence made from wood stood in the middle, separating the two sides.

When he saw this, Fade couldn''t help but feel intrigued about this. Hence, he quickly asked around
for answers.
After a round of inquiry, he found that the area on the other side of the fence would lead to where
the Dragon Mausoleum was located. Only those who possessed an ess token could enter and
participate in the exploration of the Dragon Mausoleum. Thus, the people within the fence were
basically those without a token.
After learning about the situation, Fade was not in a hurry to enter the Dragon Mausoleum area.
After all, there was still some time to kill before its opening, and he was a little drained from his trip.
He needed to rest in order to be in his best condition.
He went into the jungle, found a quiet and remote area, and began to meditate and rest.
After resting for about a day, he finally recovered. He came out of the jungle and returned to the
open space of the valley.
The opening day of the Dragon Mausoleum was nearer now, and there were more people in the
vacant lot than a day ago. The ce was bustling with life, and everything seemed lively.
At the entrance of the fence stood a crowd of people. Fade took a good look at them and found that
these people were holding an ess token. They were ready to be inspected before entering the
Dragon Mausoleum.
Seeing this, Fade stepped forward and was ready to reach for his ess token to enter the Dragon
Mausoleum.
However, several figures charged towards the man in front of him who had just taken out his own
ess. These robbers were obviously trying to snatch it from the man''s hand.
Soon after, a group of people started fighting with one another. In the end, in the midst of blood and
screams, an old man in his sixties grabbed the token and dashed into the Dragon Mausoleum.
The man who was robbed of the token red angrily and wanted to chase after him. However, he
stopped at the fence and did not dare to take another step forward. In the end, he sighed helplessly
and left.
Seeing this, Fade could not help but look surprised. "I can''t believe that he could just snatch the
ess token away like this. Why aren''t the people inside doing anything about this?"
