Chapter 577: Giving Out Magic Weapons (1)
As soon as Lu Chengfu came over, he heard Li Yu’s complaint and almost stumbled in fright. This kid was too vengeful.
After a pause, Lu Chengfu heard the little guy’s angry voice again. “Shuyan, don’t worry. Grandpa Chef and Xiao Yu like him, but I don’t like him. Even if they want to stay, I’ll definitely go with you!” The little guy’s voice trailed off toward the end, and he looked shy. Chi Shuyan was a cultivator, so with her sharp eyes and ears, she could still hear the little guy’s words. She was immediately amused and felt touched.
As soon as the little guy finished speaking, Han Yu, the “faithful subject” of his Ninth Prince, immediately expressed his loyalty. “Ninth Prince, I’ll go with you!”
Unlike Li Yu, the little guy didn’t quite dislike Lu Chengfu. After saying that, he turned his head and gave Lu Chengfu a reluctant look. Lu Chengfu’s “injured” heart was immediately comforted, but when he thought about how Chef Li and the two children were leaving, Lu Chengfu said with a bitter face, “Sister-in-law, you’re not really picking them up, are you? Chef Li and the two children haven’t stayed here for long, right? Sister-in-law, why don’t you come back in a few months?”
As soon as Lu Chengfu finished speaking, Li Yu panicked and immediately grabbed Chi Shuyan’s hand, refusing to let go as he glared at Lu Chengfu.
Chi Shuyan really wanted to take them back now. She had already set up the Seven Stars Array, so the two children and Chef Li could move back immediately.
But she wasn’t living at the villa for now. Xie Mingxuan’s matter hadn’t been resolved yet, so it wouldn’t be good to take the children with her. Also, that place was empty and lifeless. It just so happened that Lu Chengfu liked the two children and Chef Li a lot, so it was better to stay here.
Chi Shuyan said, “I’m afraid I’ll have to trouble you for a few more days!”
As soon as Chi Shuyan finished speaking, Li Yu, the little guy, was anxious and sad. Chi Shuyan hugged him and comforted him in a low voice. “After I round up the bad guys in the next few days, I’ll come and pick you up!”
When Lu Chengfu heard that his sister-in-law wasn’t in a hurry to take them away, he was so happy that he beamed. Afraid that his sister-in-law would go back on her word, he hurriedly said, “Okay, okay, okay, Sister-in-law, come and get them next time. My house is too big and empty for just Jinzhou and me. Having Chef Li and the two kids live here is just nice. Hehe!” Staying here forever would also be fine.
But he didn’t dare say the last sentence out loud.
Chi Shuyan was about to speak, but suddenly took a closer look at Lu Chengfu. She hadn’t seen him for a few days, and this kid seemed to have put on some weight; it seemed that he had been living quite comfortably these days.
Lu Chengfu was alarmed by his sister-in-law’s scrutiny, as if he had just blurted out his earlier selfish thought, and he looked guilty.
He quickly let Sister-in-law in.
Chi Shuyan held a silent Li Yu’s hand. In the living room, Chi Shuyan gave Li Yu and Han Yu three jade tokens made from supreme-grade bloodstone, one for each of them, and the other for Chef Li. She had wanted to give them bracelets at first, but bracelets didn’t suit the three of them, so Chi Shuyan switched to jade tokens.
Li Yu and the little attendant didn’t expect to receive gifts. Li Yu, who was originally silent, was excited. His eyes were bright and happy as he stared at Chi Shuyan for a while, then at the especially beautiful bloodstone jade pendant in front of him.
Han Yu also hardly got attention, so he was very happy to suddenly receive a gift.
Chi Shuyan touched the two children’s heads. “Like them? Put them on!”
After taking care of the two little guys, Chi Shuyan gave Lu Chengfu ten prosperity jade bracelets and a few jade tokens.
Lu Chengfu was astonished. “Sister-in-law, what… what is this? I… Why do I also have some?”
Chapter 578: Giving Out Magic Weapons (2)
“You can’t recognize your own items already?” Chi Shuyan said helplessly to Lu Chengfu, “Take a good look. One jade token is for you and the other for Yu Jinzhou. Carry it around your neck in the future and don’t casually take it off. As for these bracelets, give them to whomever you want!”
After that, Chi Shuyan explained what this magic weapon could do, like blocking the attacks of Celestial Masters with some Dao attainments and evil spirits, and even helping them escape evil spirits.
Only now did Lu Chengfu realize that these bracelets and jade pendants were from the jade which he had given to his sister-in-law before.
Lu Chengfu had been excited when his sister-in-law said that she would give him good stuff, but he hadn’t dwelled on it. It didn’t matter if his sister-in-law gave him good stuff or not.
He wasn’t short of money, so it didn’t matter if he gave the jade to Sister-in-law. Besides, she had saved his and Jinzhou’s lives a few times; what were a few pieces of jade?
It was just that he really didn’t expect Sister-in-law to give him such good stuff, and so many treasures at once. When he heard her mention what this magic weapon could do and how it was especially good for the body in the long term, and that it was even more effective than spirit rice and Nourishment Pills, Lu Chengfu immediately widened his eyes and swallowed his saliva. After listening to his sister-in-law’s description of the effects, he was stupefied. He stared fixedly at these jade bracelets and jade pendants, and he itched to put them away immediately. He couldn’t relax even if he put them in the safe. These… These were all extraordinary treasures.
This… this… Sister-in-law was too generous! The prosperity jade was priceless!
At that moment, Lu Chengfu’s eyes were fixed on the small pile of bracelets and two jade pendants on the table.
Chi Shuyan heaved a sigh of relief when she saw that Lu Chengfu was quite satisfied with what she had given him. Otherwise, she would feel bad for taking advantage of Lu Chengfu.
At that moment, Lu Chengfu was satisfied, utterly, incomparably satisfied. This was treasure that couldn’t be bought. Sure enough, if he followed his sister-in-law, he would have meat to eat.
He thought of how his sister-in-law had casually tossed these treasures onto the table with a clatter. He didn’t know what good stuff they were before, but Lu Chengfu’s heart ached terribly now. He hurriedly took a closer look at the jade bracelets and was relieved to see that there were no cracks. He hurriedly said, “Sister-in-law, you have to be gentle with these! Be gentle!” If one of them cracked, his heart would ache terribly.
The corners of Chi Shuyan’s mouth twitched when she saw how pained Lu Chengfu was, as if a few pieces of his flesh had been sliced off.
But Lu Chengfu knew what these items were worth; how could the raw jade he picked up compare? He hurriedly said, “Sister-in-law, I’ll just take two jade pendants and two bracelets. Don’t give me anything else. These things are too precious, I can’t accept them!”
To an ordinary person, these jade pendants were indeed treasures, but Chi Shuyan didn’t think much of them. It could be said that she could create as many magic weapons as there was jade, let alone these things, which were only high-grade level 1 magic weapons. She really didn’t think much of it. She said indifferently, “Since I’ve given them to you, don’t refuse! Apart from those two jade pendants, you can give the rest to anyone else!”
Lu Chengfu heard that his sister-in-law really planned to give him all these, and he also knew her abilities. It would be unreasonable for him to continue refusing. He said, “Sister-in-law, if you still want to gamble on stones in the future, look for me. My luck seems to be really good. When the time comes, I’ll pick up a few more pieces of jade for you!”
Chi Shuyan gave a thumbs up and smiled. “Okay!”
At that moment, her phone suddenly rang in her pocket. Chi Shuyan picked up the call, and Manager Cai’s anxious and panicked voice rang out. “Master… Master Chi, Mingxuan is missing. He… he suddenly disappeared!”
