Chapter 116: Demon-Capturing Guards
"This is a variant Jade Beauty Shark. When cooked into a spiritual meal and eaten, it can expel turbid energy from the body, enhance your beauty, and give your skin a fragrance," Chen Beiwu explained.
"Thank you for the gift. I love it." Delight showed in Xu Lingling's eyes. Her left hand tightened around the jade box, while her right unconsciously smoothed the hair beside her ear.
Chen Beiwu smiled and took another gift box from his Storage Bag.
"Another gift?" Xu Lingling asked in surprise.
Chen Beiwu shook his head and explained, "This one isn't from me. It's an apology gift the Purple Dendrobium Chamber of Commerce brought when they visited."
With that, he opened the gift box, revealing the Purple Flame Calyx inside.
On the surface, the representative of the Purple Dendrobium Chamber of Commerce had come to apologize to him, but the visit had actually been intended for Xu Lingling.
Otherwise, their apology gift should have been spiritual herbs of the water and wood attributes, rather than a purely fire-attribute Purple Flame Calyx.
Hearing that the gift was not from Chen Beiwu, Xu Lingling lost much of her interest and reached out with her right hand to push the box back.
"If it isn't a gift from you, I don't want it." She smiled sweetly.
Chen Beiwu did not insist and put the Purple Flame Calyx away.
Just then, an ape as short as a child approached, pushing a serving cart. Its tail was two feet long, its fur slightly yellow, and its eyes emerald green.
