The Jade Pendant was about the size of half a palm, its shape reminiscent of a Taoist Yin and Yang symbol, one side white, the other black. Around the edges, there were many ancient and obscure characters, densely packed, but Su Fan could not recognize them.

Clasping it in his hand, he felt an all-encompassing warmth and a sense of serenity. The fatigue from the recent battle had been swept away.

"Sect Leader Chen, what is this?"

Su Fan asked Chen Tai with curiosity.

Chen Tai spoke with a grave expression.

"This is the token that has been protected by the Chen family's Tai Chi lineage for over three hundred years. According to our ancestors, this pendant conceals the true art of Tai Chi, a supreme Tai Chi heritage. No one has been able to decipher it yet, but I believe with your talents, Divine Doctor Su, you will surely comprehend it."

"A supreme Tai Chi heritage?"

Su Fan was stunned, and he hastily offered the object back to Chen Tai,

"Sect Leader Chen, this item is too precious. I—I cannot accept it."

Seeing Su Fan's humility, Chen Tai's gaze grew even more appreciative.

"Not to mention, this Jade Pendant once incited bloodshed in the martial world a hundred years ago. Countless martial artists went mad for it, yet you remain calm. Such a temperament is indeed the prime candidate for cultivating the divine art of Tai Chi."

"Let me be frank with you, the founder of our Chen Tai Chi came from a mysterious sect. This pendant was brought from that mysterious sect and has existed as the token of our Chen Tai Chi. Later, it came into my father's hands. Before he died, he chose me to be the new Sect Leader of Chen's Tai Chi and passed this item to me."

"However, my branch is isolated and weak within our family, and given that my father died a violent death, other branches of our family rebelled, wanting to seize this token. I had no choice but to escape the family with my daughter and settle down in Yang City."

"When Ruo Shui found out you were the mysterious person who fought against a hundred, she lost her temper because your earlier actions might have revealed our whereabouts to those traitorous family members and led them to pursue us."

"Keeping this item will only bring trouble. It is better to give it to you, Divine Doctor Su. You merely glanced at the basic Tai Chi techniques and mastered them immediately. Coupled with your pinnacle cultivation of nurturing energy, perhaps, you are the fated one for this item."

"This?"

Upon hearing this, Su Fan was deeply shocked. He had not expected such a tumultuous story behind Chen Tai and his daughter, Chen Ruoshui.

If it was something that drove countless martial artists to fight over it for a hundred years and caused a martial arts family to turn on itself, then surely this Jade Pendant must hide an immense secret?

"But, this is..."

Su Fan still felt it was inappropriate.

Chen Tai said,

"Divine Doctor Su, I am not giving you this item for nothing. First, I hope you will inherit the mantle of Tai Chi and spread the art far and wide. Second, there are martial artists beyond the nurturing energy realm in my family. If they come looking, with your current strength, you won't stand a chance against them. Only by understanding the Tai Chi heritage within this pendant will you have hope."

"I hope you will be able to defeat those family traitors when they come, take control of the Chen Tai Chi Sect Leader position for me, restore order from chaos, otherwise, I will have no face to see my Chen ancestors after death."

Moved by these words, Su Fan felt compelled.

He no longer had any reason to refuse.

Since he had stepped onto the path of martial arts, he must move forward with resolve.

This Tai Chi Jade Pendant, representing the forces of Yin and Yang, was a perfect match for his constitution, and it would undoubtedly be a tremendous aid to him.

"Very well, then. I accept it humbly."

Su Fan accepted the Jade Pendant.

At this moment, Chen Tai spoke again,

"Divine Doctor Su, may I make an additional small request?"
