Although a bit excited, it was far from ❀ Nоvеlігht ❀ (Don’t copy, read here) thrilling.
Mingxi was not as calm as them.
She stared dumbfounded at the mountain of items before her, tears streaming from the corners of her mouth.
Absurd, too absurd!
She casually picked up a wooden box, inside which lay a Jade lotus pod.
It didn't look like a real lotus pod; it resembled a jade ornant carved by a craftsman.
Yet, Mingxi recognized the origin of this lotus pod at a glance.
“Azure-Scaled Hundred-Seed Lotus?”
As for the Azure-Scaled Hundred-Seed Lotus, she wouldn't elaborate on its other uses.
Everyone just needed to know that it was one of the main ingredients for the Nine Revolutions Heavenly Machine Liquid.
“Guangguang, quickly, take a look, is this thing authentic?”
Mingxi had also learned about the Yang family's appraisal eting.
The treasures they displayed were a mix of genuine and fake, most of which were specially made by the Yang family to ‘test’ their guests.
Guangguang imdiately replied, “It’s a real Hundred-Seed Lotus.”
Mingxi's eyes imdiately lit up with excitent; another Nine Revolutions ingredient, so she had unknowingly collected four?
She took a deep breath, closed the wooden box, and put it into the Ti Realm, then picked up a white cloth bag with particularly fine weaving, which looked extraordinary at first glance.
She carefully untied the drawstring.
Inside were so purplish-gold grains of sand.
To be cautious, Mingxi did not reach out to touch them.
What was this again?
Guangguang: “Master, this is lting spirit gold.”
Mingxi let out an “Ah” and unconfidently dug at her ears.
Guangguang passionately spoke again: “That’s right, it’s the lting spirit gold you’ve been longing for, Master.”
Mingxi: “...”
It wasn’t exactly “longing for.”
After all, compared to lting spirit gold, which could improve the quality of the Soul Key, the molten saliva incense, which could save the Little rmaid, was in greater demand.
But if lting spirit gold was delivered to her doorstep, could she just throw it away?
With two consecutive items being things she needed, Mingxi’s heart rate uncontrollably accelerated to two hundred miles per hour.
She decided not to bother sorting them one by one herself.
“Guangguang, help organize this pile of items and see how many are genuine and how many are fakes.”
With a wave of Mingxi’s small hand, the small mountain in front of her disappeared, having been collected into her Ti Realm.
Guangguang was very fast; organizing things and determining their authenticity was a simple task for it.
One minute later.
Guangguang compiled a list.
That small mountain contained a total of 609 items, of which 258 were fake rubbish, and the remaining 351 were genuine.
The Moonlight Pearl was real.
And not just one, but two.
One was the size of a fist and completely black, and the other was the size of a soccer ball and transparently black.
The Myriad Splendors Thousand Feathers was also real.
...
Unfortunately, there was no molten saliva incense.
However, there were several other highly practical items.
For example, the SSS-level item Bridge of Light, a special item that could communicate with light energy.
And for example, the SS-level item Forbidden Ruins, which was a super powerful shield...
“Does the appraisal eting usually display so many treasures at once? And isn’t the ratio of genuine to fake a bit excessively high?
What happened to the notoriously black-hearted Yang family?
A genuine-to-fake ratio of 1.36:1, this shouldn't count as black-hearted, right?”
Mingxi stroked her chin:
“Those Zhuzhu Yuan wouldn't have resisted and looted the guests attending the appraisal eting, would they?”
Mingxi couldn't help but suspect this.
According to Chu Kuangsheng, in the past, the Yang family's appraisal eting's genuine-to-fake ratio would not exceed 1:10.
That is, genuine items accounted for less than ten percent.
But now it was more than fifty percent.
So these items absolutely could not be just simple exhibits from the appraisal eting.
She only wanted to retaliate against the Yang family, but she never intended to wipe out the guests.
Mingxi raised her hand and touched the pattern on her brow that had not yet disappeared.
She tried to establish a connection with it.
The response she received, though not clear enough, was sufficient for Mingxi to understand the reason.
Besides emptying the appraisal eting, the Zhuzhu Yuan also looted the spatial artifact of Yang Zhenhua, the head of the Yang family.
So that was it!
No wonder there were so many genuine items!
The Yang family head’s spatial artifact certainly wouldn’t contain fakes.
This matter was not instigated by Mingxi.
Clearly, it was this fellow, who called himself “Jin” and was bound to her by reverse symbiosis, acting on his own initiative.
After all, the one truly controlling the Zhuzhu Yuan was this fellow.
It wasn’t that Mingxi wanted to go easy on the Yang family,
but rather, she felt that given the Yang family head's strength, it should have been highly unlikely for the Zhuzhu Yuan to successfully steal from him.
He was also an S-Class Beast Master.
His pet beasts could easily defeat the Zhuzhu Yuan.
Mingxi was well aware that the result of insatiable greed often led to drawing water with a bamboo basket.
Therefore, she only requested those Zhuzhu Yuan to loot the exhibits of the appraisal eting.
Just fight a quick, ruthless, and precise guerrilla war.
She didn't expect that “Jin” would feign compliance and then act against Yang Zhenhua, and even succeed.
Could this be the legendary ‘the bolder the Beast Tars, the greater the harvest’?
What a show!
At this mont, she particularly wanted to ask about Yang Zhenhua’s psychological shadow area.
“Jin, right, you’ve done so much; you surely aren’t trying to show off in front of people, are you?”
“Tell , what exactly do you want?”
Jin, the one who forcibly underwent reverse symbiosis with her, was undoubtedly extrely special.
Under normal circumstances, Transcendent creatures undergoing reverse symbiosis are unable to communicate with their host before detaching from the host body.
Reverse symbiosis is equivalent to a Transcendent creature destroying its original physical body, then forcing its soul into hibernation within the host body to slowly complete its rebirth.
Before rebirth, let alone communicating with the host, it doesn't even possess the ability to sense external information.
Jin’s situation was absolutely unheard of.
Not only could it sense the outside world and have rough, half-hearted communication with her, its host, but even more terrifying, it could use skills!
Mind control.
And long-term group control!
The abilities Jin displayed made Mingxi sowhat unnerved.
What exactly was this thing inside her body?
“...Let ...in your body...recover quickly...detach...reward...”
The emotional fluctuations transmitted by Jin were intermittent.
Like a babbling infant.
It was trying very hard to convey its aning, wanting to translate its intentions into sothing she could understand as much as possible.
Mingxi miraculously understood.
She thought for a mont and asked, “Are you trying to tell to find more jin yang fruit to help you recover faster? And this operation was your reward?”
Putting herself in its shoes, empathizing.
If they didn't harbor malice, ill will, or abnormal intentions towards her, their host, wouldn't Transcendent creatures undergoing reverse symbiosis all want to detach from their host and embrace sunshine and freedom as soon as possible?
And jin yang fruit was currently the only known material that could shorten the symbiotic period.
“...Yes...”
Isn’t this a coincidence?
I was thinking the sa thing.
Mingxi asked again, “May I ask your age before you died?”
The duration of reverse symbiosis is determined by the age of the Transcendent creature before reverse symbiosis, so this question was crucial.
“...99...”
Hoo!
Mingxi took a sharp breath.
Ninety-nine years old?
That ant if things proceeded as normal, she would have to let this fellow stay inside her for a century.
And if she wanted to part ways with this fellow as soon as possible, she would need to get 99 jin yang fruit.
A long and arduous journey indeed.
