Jiang Ce called out several times in a row.
But there was no response, not even a flicker from the ring. It was just like an ordinary piece of jewelry.
This irritated Jiang Ce. Why wouldn't this thing respond when he needed it most? He'd been cursed and was on the verge of becoming a lunatic, yet the ring remained silent. Wasn't it afraid that if he died, the legacy would be lost forever?
He called out several more times, but there was still no answer, leaving Jiang Ce speechless.
Forget it. I'll just have to rely on myself for everything.
Jiang Ce gathered his things, got up, and left the Underground Palace.
Just as he walked out, his phone rang. He answered it casually.
"Hello, this is Jiang Ce."
There was some noise on the other end of the line, followed by an excited voice.
"Dr. Jiang!"
Jiang Ce was taken aback; he didn't recognize the voice at first. "Who is this?"
"It's Liu Jianxin! You saved my life before."
