In a room, Bai Zhantang, Bai Xiaole, Bai Shishi, and Long Chen were in an awkward atmosphere. Among them, three looked rather displeased.
Clearly, Bai Zhantang was still holding back his anger, while Bai Xiaole still looked defiant. Bai Shishi remained cold and distant, while Long Chen casually poured tea for the group and pushed a cup of tea in front of Bai Zhantang.
Logically, Long Chen should have come with tea, which would be more polite. But Bai Zhantang didn't like Long Chen much and didn't acknowledge him as his son-in-law, so Long Chen naturally didn't need to receive him as a junior.
By his position, Long Chen was the branch dean, a position even higher than Bai Zhantang, the deputy hall master. This gesture was not disrespectful.
"Vice Hall Master, what's the situation over there?" Long Chen said seriously.
Hearing the situation over there, Bai Zhantang's expression grew serious as he said, "Not good. Our Imperial Heavenly Branch Academy is occupied by countless powerful extraterrestrial monsters, and its foundation has been severely corroded. We still can't reclaim the branch for now." "
That strong?" Even the Hall Master is powerless? Long Chen was startled when he heard this.
"The Hall Master wants to launch a direct assault, but the Dean thinks the timing is not right and should not act rashly. Let's wait and see the situation first."
After entering Empress Tianhou, we could only find a temporary base and build simple defensive fortifications, which served as a temporary settlement.
The dean was worried about the situation here and asked me to come back to take a look. Once the Nine Heavens Gate opens, I'll take you all along. Bai Zhantang said.
"We're doing very well here. Even if you don't come, the boss can still take us inside." Bai Xiaole pouted, clearly having been beaten up by his father, and he was very unconvinced.
"This is something your mother gave you both. Keep it safe for yourselves."
Bai Zhantang stood up, dropped two boxes, and turned to leave. Inside the room, only three people remained, staring at the two boxes.
"Look at what my mother has brought me." Bai Xiaole, who was a child, saw the gift and immediately became excited. He grabbed the box in front of him and opened it directly.
"Buzz"—
When the box was opened, what caught the eye was a round sphere about the size of an egg. Judging by its material, it was made of metal, appearing silver-white, which looked rather odd.
"What is this thing?" Bai Xiaole was stunned.
"This is ..."
When he saw the silver sphere, the purple-eyed nine-tailed demon fox on Bai Xiaole's shoulder was startled: "Xiaole, try dropping a drop of blood and see what happens." Bai
Xiaole listened to Xiao Jiu's words and dropped a drop of blood onto the silver sphere, which was quickly absorbed by the sphere.
Suddenly, the silver sphere exploded, forming countless silver scales the size of grains of rice, floating right in front of Bai Xiaole.
"This is a spirit weapon, specially crafted for those who use eye techniques." The little fox said excitedly. From its excited expression, it was clear this was a supreme treasure.
"Spirit weapon, what is that?" Bai Xiaole looked completely bewildered.
"Whoosh!"
Suddenly, the little fox's paw trembled, and its endless silver scales instantly expanded, enveloping Bai Xiaole and the little fox together, as if the two of them were instantly clad in silver armor.
"This thing is fun!" Seeing this, Bai Xiaole shouted in surprise.
"You don't know anything. This is a supreme treasure. Legend has it that the forging technique for spirit weapons has been lost. Otherwise, do you think Boss Guo Ran wouldn't tailor divine weapons for us?" The little fox said irritably.
"Whoosh."
No one knew how the little fox managed to do it. Those scales peeled off the two of them, rapidly enlarging and stretching, forming tens of thousands of sharp swords.
When it transformed into a sharp sword, its sharp aura was so intense that even Long Chen felt a threat. This sword seemed not much weaker than the divine weapon Guo Ran had forged.
"Wow, that's amazing." Bai Xiaole cried out in alarm.
"Whoosh!"
Suddenly, countless sharp swords shrank into feathers, appearing behind Bai Xiaole and forming two silver wings.
"Wow, that's amazing."
Bai Xiaole shouted excitedly, like a child who had just gotten a novel toy.
"Stop shouting. Let's find a secluded spot and carefully study how to use this thing." The little fox was also thrilled. The two of them dashed off in a flash, not even greeting Long Chen.
In the room, only Long Chen and Bai Shishi remained. Long Chen gave Bai Shishi a slight smile and gestured for her to open the box, but Bai Shishi stubbornly shook her head:
"I don't want the things he gave me."
"Why?" Long Chen couldn't help but ask.
"Not for any reason, I just don't like him." Bai Shishi said.
Long Chen was a bit puzzled; he couldn't understand why Bai Shishi hated his father so much.
"Then I'll open it!" Long Chen asked tentatively.
"If you want to open it, then open it. The hand is yours, what can I do?" Bai Shishi rarely showed a little girlish demeanor and shot Long Chen a look.
From her look, Long Chen immediately understood. Everyone is curious, especially women. They say cats have nine lives, and a woman's curiosity can kill a cat. In fact, Bai Shishi really wanted to see it, but she just couldn't put aside her pride.
"Click!"
Long Chen opened the small box and found a pair of golden wristbands. These golden wristbands were ancient, elegant yet graceful, and noble in their beauty.
The moment Long Chen opened the box, the entire room was filled with golden divine light, and the golden power of heaven and earth instantly became extremely active.
"Hmph, it's just a pair of wrist guards, what's there to look at?" Bai Shishi glanced at it and then turned her head away.
However, she quickly turned her head to take another look. The bracers were exquisitely elegant, exuding nobility and elegance—it was hard for any woman to resist their allure.
Most importantly, Bai Shishi felt a powerful summoning force. The moment the golden wristband appeared, even her golden longsword fluctuated intensely. Clearly, these bracers were a pair of treasured treasures.
Bai Shishi is a practitioner of metallic sex, and these bracers were tailor-made for her. She wanted to pretend to be proud and avoid looking at them, but she couldn't resist her instincts.
Long Chen looked at the pair of wrist guards and couldn't help but sigh, his eyes filled with a complex expression.
"What's wrong?" Why do you suddenly sigh? "Bai Shishi asked.
"The Vice Hall Master gave you this bracer—you really put great thought into it!" Long Chen said.
"It's just a pair of wrist guards, what's the point of any good intentions?" Bai Shishi said somewhat defiantly, "
These pair of wrist guards were probably given by my mother, or maybe by my second aunt. What does it have to do with him? Just because he sent them over, I will..."Should I be grateful to him? Long
Chen picked up a wristband and shook his head, saying, "These aren't gifts from your mother or your second mother, but from your father who almost lost his life to get them." "
What?"
Bai Shishi's expression finally changed, her eyes filled with shock.
