Shattered Hopes

The True Lord White Crane originally intended to use the excuse of 'asking for credit' to bolster its courage, and then meet with Venerable White, and exchange a few words with him, which would have satisfied it.

But unexpectedly, happiness came so suddenly. Not only did Senior White remember it, but he also gave it a gift. Although it didn't know what surprises were inside... as long as it was a gift from Senior White, even if it was just an empty box, it was the best thing in the world to it.

True Lord White Crane held the small box, his face beaming with happiness.

One side.

Doudou gently patted Song Shuhang and said in a low voice, "See that? This is a brainless fan."

Song Shuhang: "..."

Looking at the blissful-looking True Lord White Crane, Song Shuhang suddenly felt a chill run down his spine. His sixth sense told him—this was a big problem!

This is a huge problem! So, don't get involved with this True Lord White Crane in any way, absolutely not.

A cultivator's sixth sense is very sharp. Basically, if a cultivator's sixth sense conveys a certain signal to their master, they should not hesitate to follow their sixth sense and will never go wrong.

So Song Shuhang quietly retreated, preparing to go back into his tent.

Venerable White looked at the energetic True Lord White Crane and smiled, "Want to do something for me?"

"Yes, yes, Senior White, is there anything I can help you with lately...? The Western space station problem you assigned me last time, and the problem with the switched astronaut, I've solved them both perfectly!" True Lord White Crane patted his chest vigorously, following the topic, showing off his achievements to Senior White in order to improve Senior White's favorability.

"You solved the problem last time? You did me a great favor," Venerable White replied. "In that case, how about we replace True Lord White Crane's 'Disposable Meteor Sword 001 Edition' with a regular 'Disposable Flying Sword' series?"

It has been proven that cultivating goodwill is a very effective tactic.

Just as Venerable White was pondering...

The True Lord White Crane before him wore a blissful expression and said, "Being able to help you, Senior, is the greatest happiness for me. By the way, Senior, you are truly dazzling with all your hairstyles! I've collected every single one of the 70+ emoticons; I'm going to enlarge them and hang them in my palace so I can admire your face every day!"

Perhaps he was too excited and too happy, so True Lord White Crane accidentally blurted out his true feelings!

Moreover, True Lord White Crane, immersed in the happiness brought by the gift, was unaware that he had just said some things he shouldn't have.

Venerable White: "..."

Is the power of the Disposable Meteor Sword 001 Edition too weak? Shouldn't it be increased? After all, the giant crane in front of us is Sixth-Grade True Lord.

As for the Big White helping me with the Western Space Station and astronauts... that's one thing, I'll repay it with the first batch of spots to enter the 'Primordial Ruins' when the time comes!

Thinking of this, Venerable White glanced at the mountain of gift boxes beside him, then turned to True Lord White Crane and said, "If you want to do something for me, I happen to have something I can entrust to you."

"Please give your instructions, senior, and I will certainly handle it perfectly for you!" True Lord White Crane patted his chest forcefully.

"I have some gifts here that I want to give to the fellow Daoists in the 'Nine Provinces Number One Group'. If you have time, could you please help me send these gifts? Please note that these gifts are all sealed and need to be opened in five days." Venerable White smiled and pointed to a large pile of gift boxes.

"Are they all gifts?" True Lord White Crane swallowed hard, a thought flashing through his mind—should he keep all these gifts for himself? They were all gifts from Senior White... and they even have Senior White's handwriting on them. He really wanted to collect them all in his palace.

However, these are gifts that Senior White instructed him to help send. If he keeps them all for himself, Senior White will definitely be angry.

Oh right... I can send the gifts out one by one first, and then wait five days until the seals on the gifts automatically break, then I can go and collect the gift boxes from my fellow cultivators one by one. After all, the boxes have Senior White's handwriting on them, and the boxes themselves are invaluable gifts.

"Leave it to me, Senior White. As long as the fellow cultivators in the Nine Provinces Number One Group are not in seclusion, I guarantee that all these gifts will be delivered one by one. I promise to deliver all the gifts within three days!" True Lord White Crane firmly assured him.

"Go... I'll give you an extra surprise after you complete the task," Venerable White said calmly.

"Senior, you are so kind." True Lord White Crane was in tears. He reached out and lifted his hand into the air, and all the gift boxes on the ground were swept up by a gentle breeze and floated around him.

"Then, senior, I'm off to deliver the gifts. I'll make sure to send them out overnight. Wait for good news when I complete the mission!" True Lord White Crane shouted.

Then it flapped its three pairs of wings and soared into the sky, carrying the gift box... It came and went in a hurry.

As he flew into the air, he suddenly remembered something else—he had forgotten to ask which one of them was Fellow Song Shuhang.

To spend every day with Senior White and not be captivated by Senior White charm is simply a heinous crime.

Fine... I'll let him off this time.

When they meet again, it must have a good heart-to-heart talk with this Fellow Daoist Song, and make him understand and appreciate Senior White's charm and beauty!

In this world, everyone should succumb to Senior White's charm.

At that moment, Song Shuhang, who was standing by the tent, suddenly shivered.

The words of True Lord White Crane, "By the way, senior, you are truly dazzling with all your hairstyles. I have collected every single one of the more than 70 emoticons. I will enlarge them and hang them in my palace so that I can admire your face every day!" echoed in his mind.

Although Song Shuhang had previously guessed that Venerable White's series of strange behaviors today were likely because Soft Feather had made memes out of Senior White's photos and posted them in the group chat.

However, Song Shuhang still held a sliver of hope—perhaps the emojis Soft Feather posted weren't all made from Venerable White's photos? Or maybe only one or two of them used Senior White's pictures?

People are like this; when faced with desperate situations, they easily develop an ostrich mentality and a sense of wishful thinking...

But now, even Song Shuhang's last shred of hope has been shattered by True Lord White Crane.

Senior White Sticker Pack made from over 70 photos.

He felt like he'd swallowed a pill!

Song Shuhang cautiously turned his head and secretly glanced at Venerable White, wanting to see the senior's expression.

At this moment, Venerable White patted his long white robe. Perhaps sensing Song Shuhang's gaze, Venerable White turned his head to look back at Song Shuhang.

Then, Venerable White smiled slightly at Song Shuhang. His smile was gentle and heartwarming.
