Upon hearing that the dark golden gelatinous liquid before her was Qing Mu's return gift, Ye Lingling immediately picked it up.
But after examining it closely, Ye Lingling's eyes filled with confusion. Even with her knowledge, she could not identify what was in the cup!
It looked like wine, yet not wine; like honey, yet not honey. It even gave off a peculiar fragrance. Could it be some kind of cocktail?
But...
Ye Lingling then looked at Qing Mu again and found his expression somewhat solemn. Clearly, this item's value was far beyond that of a mere drink.
After hesitating for a moment, Ye Lingling asked Qing Mu, "Forgive my ignorance, but what is this thing of yours, Qing Mu?"
"Whale Rubber!"
Qing Mu answered without hesitation.
"Whale Rubber?"
At Qing Mu's words, Ye Lingling's pretty face flushed, but her heart seemed to plunge into an icy abyss.
Whale Rubber was famous throughout aristocratic circles. How could Ye Lingling not know what it was used for?
But what chilled Ye Lingling was that Qing Mu's first gift to her was actually this!
Could the person capable of performing a Martial Soul Fusion Skill with her be such an impatient lecher?
If that were the case, then all her previous hopes, the gamble she had prepared to stake the rest of her life on, would become a complete joke.
In an instant, Ye Lingling felt utterly despondent.
Yet at that moment, Qing Mu spoke again, and Ye Lingling's nearly withered heart came back to life.
"Besides acting as an aphrodisiac, Whale Rubber can also improve one's physical constitution when consumed in large quantities. Its effects are far superior to Soul Beast meat."
Upon hearing this, the light in Ye Lingling's dimmed eyes returned as she stared at Qing Mu in shock.
