Rebirth of the Cultivation Devil-Chapter 958 - 885: Gifting the Magic Artifact

"Here, this is for you!" Ye Qingfeng took out the jade pendant, which was the magic artifact he refined using the Moyu Crystal last night.

Originally, he planned to wait until his cultivation improved before using the Moyu Crystal to refine a higher-level magic artifact.

However, for Zhao Zhiruo’s sake, Ye Qingfeng didn’t mind anymore; a magic artifact wasn’t of much use to him personally.

"Wow, this jade pendant is so beautiful. It must be worth tens of thousands, maybe even a million."

As soon as Ye Qingfeng took out the jade pendant, Su Qiong exclaimed.

Her family was wealthy, and she’d seen even pricier jade pendants, so she had an eye for quality and immediately recognized the true value of this pendant.

However, she felt that no matter how expensive a jade pendant was, it didn’t seem as good-looking as the one Ye Qingfeng took out.

Ye Qingfeng, of course, didn’t care about Su Qiong’s amazement; the true value of this jade pendant didn’t lie in its material but in the spirit added by Ye Qingfeng’s refining.

The key thing is its defensive power; attacks from martial artists below a War General level are ineffective, and even attacks from War General Level martial artists would be weakened.

For ordinary people, it’s practically a divine artifact!

Unfortunately, Su Qiong couldn’t see the jade pendant’s true value.

"No way, a jade pendant worth tens of thousands, is it real?!"

"Can’t be real; who would take out such an expensive pendant to pursue a girl? It’d make more sense to pursue the girl across from her."

"I sell jewelry for a living; I’m sure that pendant is worth over tens of thousands. Just the material is worth twenty thousand, let alone a jade pendant as translucent and special as this one, which I have never seen before."

The diners who had been focusing on Su Qiong saw this scene and immediately began to gossip.

It’s mainly because such an expensive jade pendant is too rare in this rundown village!

"It’s too much of a waste. For tens of thousands, you could pursue any girl."

"Exactly, exactly, I think that kid is definitely using the girl beside him as an excuse to pursue the girl across from her."

"..."

Hearing these words, Zhao Zhiruo’s face turned pale, and her small hand placed on her leg trembled slightly.

Indeed, how could someone like Ye Qingfeng, a wealthy playboy, like a girl as ordinary as herself?

Even presenting a jade pendant worth tens of thousands, if not to pursue Su Qiong, must have some ulterior motives; he couldn’t really like her.

Although Zhao Zhiruo didn’t like Ye Qingfeng, and even somewhat disliked him,

being spoken about like this undoubtedly turned her into a duckling wanting to become a phoenix, deeply wounding her self-esteem.

Seeing Zhao Zhiruo’s expression, Su Qiong was angered. These people were too much, and their words were too hurtful!

She was about to speak up when she heard Ye Qingfeng say indifferently, "Tell them all to get out."

As soon as Ye Qingfeng finished speaking, Zhong Ming stood up, coldly gazing at the people in the restaurant who had been gossiping.

"What do you want to do? We’re here to eat, why should we leave?"

Someone, frightened by Zhong Ming’s gaze, quickly shouted.

Zhong Ming wasn’t interested in wasting words with such people; he only needed to follow the instructor’s orders.

He stepped forward, grabbed the man’s collar, lifted him up, and then threw him to the ground, effectively kicking him out.

He faithfully executed Ye Qingfeng’s command and made sure the person was indeed kicked out!

The others were scared too and didn’t dare to stay longer, so they all hurriedly left.

"What’s going on? Why are the guests being driven away?" Zhao Zhiruo’s mother ran out; none of these guests had paid yet.

"Sorry, Auntie, I got angry just now and asked my friend to drive them all away. Don’t worry, I will compensate for all the losses here." Ye Qingfeng stepped forward and explained.

Although obviously a bit distressed, Zhao Zhiruo’s mother still said, "It’s okay, it actually wasn’t much money."

Zhao Zhiruo’s mother smiled somewhat reluctantly; their family was indeed very short of money.

Zhao Zhiruo’s father was still in the hospital, and Ye Qingfeng driving these people away would also affect future business.

But for her daughter’s happiness, she couldn’t complain.

"Auntie, it really wasn’t his fault; those people were too loose-tongued, ridiculing Zhiruo, which is why he had the bodyguard take action."

Although she disliked Ye Qingfeng’s arrogance, Su Qiong still explained for him because Ye Qingfeng’s actions this time really hit the mark for her.

Understanding it was for her own daughter, upon hearing this, Zhao Zhiruo’s mother’s furrowed brows immediately relaxed; nothing was more important than Zhiruo’s happiness.

"Let’s not talk about this now; go ahead and accept this necklace."

Ye Qingfeng, smiling, passed the necklace to Zhao Zhiruo again.

"Sorry, I can’t accept it." Zhao Zhiruo bit her lip and gently shook her head.

She didn’t know how to express herself; Ye Qingfeng was so rich, able to present a necklace worth tens of thousands just like that, clearly a wealthy young master from a prominent family, how could he fancy someone like her?

She felt Ye Qingfeng must have an agenda approaching her.

As those diners said, such an expensive gift should be presented when pursuing those great beauties, like Su Qiong.

Ye Qingfeng’s hand did not retract, still extended in front of Zhao Zhiruo, holding the Moyu Crystal stone necklace, ethereal and crystalline.

Guan Yuntang would probably act soon; Ye Qingfeng had to use the magic artifact made from the Moyu Crystal to protect her.

"Zhiruo, don’t be swayed by those people. Since someone is kind enough to give it, we should graciously accept it."

Su Qiong also advised.

Perhaps Ye Qingfeng’s recent actions earned Su Qiong’s favor, and she even voluntarily spoke for him.

"No, it’s too precious, I..."

Zhao Zhiruo, not being very articulate, was struggling to process everything; the necklace Ye Qingfeng took out was too expensive.

"You must accept it!"

Ye Qingfeng spoke no more, directly picking up the necklace and putting it on Zhao Zhiruo.

"Ye Qingfeng..."

Zhao Zhiruo hadn’t reacted, and Ye Qingfeng had already finished putting the necklace on.

"This, this necklace is worth tens of thousands, how can I..."

Zhao Zhiruo panicked; Ye Qingfeng had given her such a valuable thing that she couldn’t repay.

"Tens of thousands!?" Zhao Zhiruo’s mother was shocked and exclaimed.

When she saw everyone looking at her, Zhao Zhiruo’s mother realized her reaction was too dramatic.

But she was indeed shocked; the necklace was worth tens of thousands! And it was just given to Zhiruo? 𝚏𝗿𝗲𝐞𝐰𝚎𝕓𝐧𝚘𝘃𝗲𝐥.𝐜𝚘𝕞

This indicated that Ye Qingfeng really liked her daughter; otherwise, why would he show such righteous anger for her and give such an extravagant gift!

A smile appeared on Zhao Zhiruo’s mother’s face as she said, "You all continue chatting, I’ll go to the kitchen to make some dishes, let’s have lunch here."
