The War God's Homecoming novel Chapter 404

Chapter 404 The Celestial Death Tune

On the ground lay an object, astonishingly a dragon-shaped jade pendant. It looked identical to the two that Billy already possessed, with only slight differences in the color of the dragon's head.

"Boss, how can there be another jade pendant like this here?" Azure Dragon exclaimed in shock.

"I don't know," Billy replied, shaking his head as he bent down to pick up the jade pendant.

"Boss, it's quite a coincidence that both fallen experts had the same jade pendant. This jade pendant seems to be more than meets the eye." Casey said, his expression growing serious.

"If our estimation is correct, both of these experts were likely killed because of the jade pendants." Billy agreed.

It was almost certain.

Hissing sounds came from Azure Dragon and the others as they heard this. Even a mid-War God-Emperor had met his end due to this jade pendant. What could be the significance of this object?

"Billy, have you seen this jade pendant before?" Ivy Chandler, who was curious, asked.

Azure Fang and the others also looked over, not knowing about the jade pendant.

"Yeah," Billy replied with a faint smile, briefly explaining the story of the other two jade pendants he had.

"Isn't that quite a coincidence?" Ivy expressed her surprise after hearing the story.

The others also had shocked expressions on their faces.

Billy nodded and then turned to Black Tortoise. "Black Tortoise, can you see what's written on that animal skin?"

"There's only one piece of music written on it." Black Tortoise responded.

"What?" Stout felt like he hadn't heard clearly.

Could it be that this Emperor Realm expert was a music enthusiast?

"Let me see!" Ivy Chandler took the scroll from Black Tortoise's hands. After looking at it, she exclaimed in a soft voice, "The Celestial Death Tune!"

"Do you recognize this music?" Frostblade asked.

"This is the signature martial technique of Celestial Harp Sect, a martial art belonging to War God-Emperors, called the Celestial Death Tune." Ivy Chandler confirmed.

"Celestial Harp Sect?" Night Orchid was surprised. "Isn't that the Celestial Harp Sect that was wiped out overnight a few decades ago?"

"Yeah," Ivy Chandler nodded again. "It's the same one. They were annihilated completely a few decades ago."

"Boss, I believe this God-Emperor Realm expert's death is related to this music." Black Tortoise speculated.

"It's a possibility." Billy agreed with a nod. His curiosity about the jade pendant's origins had increased. What could be the story behind it? And how many of these jade pendants were there?

"Ivy, I hope your skill with the zither hasn't declined. The Celestial Death Tune is yours now, you should try it when you get back." Billy said, smiling at Ivy Chandler.
