"Sick Tiger! You say the weight of this White Jade Bone is truly astonishing, even difficult to lift?"
As Old Qi asked, he circled the gigantic White Jade Bone on the ground, scrutinizing it with wide eyes. When he noticed traces of dents on the ground typical of a heavy object falling, he was suddenly taken aback.
Just such an ordinary-looking White Jade Bone?
Although it appears to be carved from white jade, emitting a strange brilliance, it seems light as a feather no matter how you look at it.
But could it really leave a series of deep, weighted dents on the ground?
Even stranger is.
Xu Binghu managed to carry one such bone back on one shoulder but didn’t know to carry another on the other?
This is unheard of!
The villagers, listening to this bizarre story, were also in disbelief. So villagers who were familiar with Xu Binghu clustered around the White Jade Bone, spat into their hands, and attempted to lift it.
"Why don’t you all try?!"
Seeing their disbelief, Xu Binghu cheerfully suggested.
These words were what the guard team had in mind, so they stepped forward one after another to try.
"Hey---"
"Hey---"
"Let try----"
The guard team mbers each took turns attempting, yet no one could move the White Jade Bone on the ground even a bit. The smooth surface made it impossible for them to even grab it!
"Why don’t you all try together?!"
Knowing this outco in advance, Xu Binghu egged them on again.
In the guard team, aside from Old Qi, the rest were all young n.
The defining characteristic of young people is their vigor and competitiveness, especially in front of Xu Binghu, a Great Mountain that always towers over them.
"Alright, let’s give it a try."
Saying this, the leading group called the rest of the guard team, nearly twenty people, and all gathered around the White Jade Bone. Each held onto a piece, trying to lift it together.
The result was the sa as before.
They had no choice but to give up.
"This bone is far too strange for us to try; only Sick Tiger could bring it back. Clearly, it is ant for the Xu Family!!"
The guard team mbers shook their heads in resignation, accepting this fact.
At this mont, Xu Ran brushed past Xu Binghu, slowly approaching the White Jade Bone. His eyes emitted a faint golden light, and in the glaring midday sun, it was hard for others to see anything unusual.
"This White Jade Bone is indeed magical!!"
Xu Ran’s voice was calm, though there was a hint of surprise in his tone.
Under Xu Ran’s faint golden glow, the entire White Jade Bone radiated a subtle white luminescence, like a protective shield. And on its smooth surface, intricate Runes were etched all over.
These Runes covered the entire bone. Without Innate Qi attached to his pupils, they would certainly be overlooked.
It was precisely these intricate Runes that caused Xu Ran’s slight astonishnt.
The White Jade Bone, despite being covered with Runes, felt incredibly smooth to touch; the team mbers couldn’t even place their hands on it!
"Xiao Ran, we’ve been unable to lift this bone; I doubt you can either. If you want to use it as a material for the herbal bath, you’ll likely need your father’s help!"
Soone in the guard team voiced out.
Although Xu Ran just demonstrated so mysterious feats with a plethora of techniques, strength is a different matter. A baby not even two years old certainly can’t compare to the combined effort of the entire guard team.
Moreover, only Xu Binghu could lift this White Jade Bone.
"Hmph?!"
However, Xu Ran rely chuckled lightly at these words, placing a single hand on the White Jade Bone, without even adopting a gripping posture, simply allowing a wisp of faint Innate Qi to flow to his hand.
The next mont, the White Jade Bone, towering several tis Xu Ran’s height, was effortlessly lifted with ease.
In an instant, everyone present widened their eyes to behold this scene—a sight that was enough to shatter their very eyes displayed right before them.
Xu Ran’s slender fra lifting the White Jade Bone looked akin to a slender needle supporting a towering tree, utterly breathtaking.
In truth, such a feat was the simplest matter for Xu Ran.
Though Xu Binghu spoke of that peculiar mountain village in scant terms, the information was sparse.
But who is Xu Ran—a genius mind descended from the heavens, possessing extraordinary brilliance. Lifting this White Jade Bone required the utilization of Innate Qi. Xu Binghu only possessed a wisp of it, hence enabling him to carry one White Jade Bone.
Even a newborn baby, possessing Innate Qi, could lift it.
If Xu Ran were present at the ti, likely all the White Jade Bones in that village would have been brought back.
"Haha," Xu Binghu was beside himself with excitent seeing Xu Ran effortlessly lift the White Jade Bone.
"Indeed, Xu Binghu’s son is wise, imdiately grasping the crux of the matter!!"
"Now that Xiao Ran has lifted this White Jade Bone, let’s start preparing the herbs for the herbal bath!!"
At this point, Old Qi spoke up, "Sick Tiger, we’ve been following you in the Great Mountain all this ti, hunting Snake Demons, scouring the mountain, and have gathered plenty of herbal materials. Whatever herbs Xiao Ran needs for the herbal bath, just fetch them from the warehouse!!"
