The strange change in Zuo Fei drew the attention of every guest in the hall. The noblewoman who had bid at the auction suddenly chasing after the Green Jade Wood astonished everyone even more.
From the moment the Spatial Ring on Zuo Fei's left hand burst and the Green Jade Wood flew out, the hall suddenly fell silent apart from his incessant screams. Black froze for only a moment before immediately giving Tulam a low, grave order. "Seize it first!"
Without another word, Tulam followed close behind the noblewoman, charging toward the Green Jade Wood as it flew outside.
On a rooftop outside the manor, Han Shuo was momentarily stunned as he watched the Green Jade Wood fly toward him. Everyone in the manor turned their eyes in his direction. He knew without thinking that he and Sophie must have been exposed.
"What's going on?" Han Shuo hurriedly asked the Wooden Armored Corpse. This abnormal behavior of the Green Jade Wood had clearly been caused by the Wooden Armored Corpse, but Han Shuo had never expected him to possess such an ability.
"It-it flew over on its own!" the Wooden Armored Corpse answered uncertainly, as though he were completely innocent.
Han Shuo froze, then recalled the legends of the Five Elements Treasures. In the accounts Chu Canglan had left behind, he had explained that the Five Elements Treasures and the Five Elements Armored Corpses shared a wondrous affinity. Nurtured over hundreds of millions of years within the Five Elements Extreme Lands, the Five Elements Treasures possessed not only miraculous powers but also the ability to choose their own masters.
As a wood-element treasure born in the Wood-Extreme Land, the Green Jade Wood would clearly regard the Wooden Armored Corpse as its most suitable master once it sensed the life aura
