Mu'er, a young girl, also came to mind for Senior Xu, who smiled and said, "Hello, Miss Mu'er!"
This kind of adorable girl gives off a very good impression.
"Senior, you're so handsome," Mu'er said suddenly after staring at Senior Xu for a moment.
She was the type of person who spoke her mind and never hid her thoughts.
Qin Yudie's expression shifted slightly. "Mu'er, you mustn't be rude to Senior Xu!"
How could someone as great as Senior Xu be judged by their appearance? That would be an insult to him.
Although... she also thought Senior Xu was very handsome.
"Oh!"
Mu'er looked wronged, not understanding when complimenting someone's looks became rude.
Senior Xu was also somewhat speechless. He had originally wanted to praise Mu'er for her good taste, but Qin Yudie's remark forced him to swallow his words and change his tune to, "It's fine."
Internally, he wished Mu'er would say more honest things. No man truly dislikes being called handsome.
"Miss Yudie, this is a Thousand Year Moon Mushroom. I brought it for you to wish you a happy birthday."
A handsome young man walked over, holding out a moon-shaped mushroom and speaking.
The Thousand Year Moon Mushroom was a rather precious Spirit Material. His father had prepared it for him, hoping he could build a good relationship with Qin Yudie, and ideally, win over this young lady of the Tianren Sect.
This way, he would be able to establish ties with the Tianren Sect.
"Thank you," Qin Yudie replied politely, but she showed no intention of getting up.
Mu'er knew Qin Yudie wanted her to accept the gift, so she snatched the Thousand Year Moon Mushroom from the man's hand and placed it aside.
The man's mouth twitched, and then he walked away.
As expected, the young lady of the Tianren Sect was as cold as the rumors suggested.
But why was that guy in white sitting with Qin Yudie and even receiving the treatment of having her peel fruit for him!
Next, the other prodigies presented their gifts, but all were received by Mu'er, who immediately set them aside.
Judi, holding an Inner Armor, walked towards Qin Yudie. He intended to hand it directly to her, but Mu'er blocked him.
He frowned slightly and looked at Qin Yudie behind him. "Yudie, this Inner Armor is a Spirit Form Grade Treasure. I'm giving it to you to wish you a happy birthday."
A Spirit Form Grade Treasure was a treasure corresponding to the level of a Spirit Form Realm Cultivator, sufficient for a Spirit Form Realm Cultivator to use. Qin Yudie, however, was only at the Spiritual Roaming Realm cultivation. Using this Inner Armor could provide excellent safety protection.
"Thank you!" Qin Yudie said faintly, without even looking at the Inner Armor in Judi's hand.
She could never use a treasure that attached to the body if it was given by a man. The mere thought made her feel sick.
Mu'er took the Inner Armor from Judi's hand and casually tossed it with the other gifts.
Anger began to surface in Judi's eyes, but he suppressed it.
He took a deep breath and looked at Senior Xu. "Friend, Yudie values you so much. Have you prepared a gift for Yudie?"
Senior Xu raised an eyebrow, sensing Judi's anger and displeasure.
But Judi's displeasure had nothing to do with him. In fact, Judi's displeasure could make him happy, so he smiled faintly and said, "I did prepare a gift."
Judi looked at the small wooden box in Senior Xu's hand, wondering if this was the gift he was giving to Qin Yudie. The wooden box was very ordinary, so he assumed it wouldn't contain any valuable treasure.
He wanted to see what kind of gift Senior Xu could produce that Qin Yudie valued so highly. He said, "I look forward to it. It must be an extraordinary treasure, right?"
The others in the courtyard also looked at Senior Xu, all wanting to know what kind of gift this young man, who received special treatment from Qin Yudie, would present.
"Miss Yudie, happy birthday!" Senior Xu extended the wooden box towards Qin Yudie.
Qin Yudie was very happy upon hearing Senior Xu's address.
"Miss Yudie" was clearly a more intimate address than "Miss Qin," indicating that Senior Xu recognized her more.
She reached out and took the wooden box, looking up at Senior Xu, unsure whether she should open it here.
"Open it and see if you like it," Senior Xu said.
What he gave her was naturally not something extremely valuable; it could even be considered very cheap, but he had made it with great care.
Qin Yudie carefully opened the wooden box, her eyes widening with surprise and joy. Then, her eyes welled up.
Inside the wooden box was a wooden puppet, carved in her likeness.
The puppet was exquisite, like a miniature version of herself, with incredibly fine details.
Furthermore, the puppet contained Dao Intent, making it a treasure of immeasurable value.
Senior Xu smiled and asked, "How is it? Do you like it?"
A few days ago, when Qin Yudie told him about the birthday banquet, he had been considering what gift to give her.
But after much thought, he couldn't afford anything expensive, so he decided to carve a unique wooden puppet modeled after Qin Yudie.
Just as he finished carving, Qin Yudie came to call him to the banquet. It had to be said, it was quite a coincidence.
Qin Yudie closed the wooden box, held it in her arms, and smiled brightly.
"This is my favorite gift so far!"
She would cherish this Wooden Puppet, her very own, and wouldn't even let outsiders glimpse it.
Judi and the others hadn't seen what was inside the wooden box at all. Hearing Qin Yudie's words, they felt somewhat bewildered, and various thoughts arose in their minds.
Could it be that there was nothing inside the wooden box, or perhaps it was something very trashy, and Qin Yudie was embarrassed to show it to everyone, so she said that to protect Senior Xu?
The more Judi thought about it, the more he believed this was the case. He sneered, "What incredible treasure could it be? Why don't you take it out and show us?"
He didn't believe Senior Xu could give away any good treasures. The wooden box was so ordinary; the contents were probably trash too.
Qin Yudie's beautiful eyes turned cold as she looked at Judi and said, "This is a gift from Senior Xu to me. I don't need to show it to you all."
A gift from Senior Xu, these people weren't worthy of seeing it!
"It's definitely not anything good. It's probably just an empty wooden box. You're putting on a show here," Judi said sarcastically.
He had been quite angered by Qin Yudie today, so his words had become somewhat unrestrained.
Qin Yudie's pretty face turned cold, and with anger, she said, "Judi, you are not welcome at my birthday banquet. Please leave!"
Today was her birthday banquet, and she didn't want to get angry, but Judi's disrespect towards Senior Xu had completely infuriated her.
Judi stopped looking at Qin Yudie and stared intently at Xu Yan, provoking him, "Do you dare to have a match with me?"
Today, he would cast all caution aside. Qin Yudie had treated him like this, so why should he try to please her anymore?
He, Judi, a peerless prodigy, wasn't someone who couldn't find a woman. Why should he humble himself!
