Urban Supernatural Medical Saint-Chapter 1170 - 1169: Are You Messing With Me?
Chen Daotian had to handle this matter himself, with a serious expression, he said:
"Now, just listen to what I say... Alright, on behalf of Brother Yu, I accept your apology! Let’s begin..."
Upon hearing this.
The three young men paused for a moment, looking at Chen Daotian with puzzled faces.
Chen Daotian’s appearance and age seemed close to theirs, so being asked to bow and admit fault to a peer was quite unacceptable.
Zhao Tianxing thought of a plan and said, "I’ve been quite disrespectful previously, I, Zhao Tianxing, offer my apologies to you!"
During the apology, he slightly bowed and then subtly glanced at the other two.
The young lords of Taicang and Bing Yin immediately understood Zhao Tianxing’s intention, it was clear that apologizing to Chen Daotian didn’t require kneeling, and they could still obtain forgiveness. How could they pass up such an opportunity?
So, the two also imitated Zhao Tianxing’s actions, bowing and apologizing—
"I’ve been quite disrespectful previously!"
"I apologize! Please forgive us!"
Zhao Tianxing nodded, stood up straight, and said, "To show our apology, we’ve brought some gifts, please accept them graciously."
The subordinates from behind brought the boxes forward.
Chen Daotian had no idea their fathers demanded a kneeling apology, and he wasn’t petty about it, accepting their apologies quite openly. Seeing those boxes, he became interested.
After all, being idle all the time, finding something to do was a way to pass the time.
Chen Daotian walked over.
"Open them and take a look!"
The two opened the boxes one by one.
A total of four large boxes.
The first box was filled with gold, silver, and jewels!
The second box contained pearls and agates!
The third box was filled with heavenly treasures like ginseng and lingzhi, each dated to be ten thousand years old. Though in the current world after the secret realm catastrophe, spiritual energy was extremely abundant, the growth period of medicinal herbs was short, but these heavenly treasures in the boxes were truly ten thousand years old, having grown little by little in the domain, absorbing ten thousand years of heavenly and earthly essence.
Seeing the gifts in these three boxes.
Chen Daotian clicked his tongue quietly, saying, "I didn’t expect your sincerity. This apology is acceptable!"
"Not at all, not at all, just a gesture, as long as you’re not offended, as long as you’re not offended!"
In fact, the three young men had already felt a surge of emotion in their hearts.
They hadn’t personally checked what these gifts were on the way, and didn’t anticipate such valuable things to be inside.
Honestly, even during past escapades, they hadn’t spent so much money, and there were treasures worth ten thousand years!
How...
Could they not feel a pang of regret!
The muscles on the faces of the three young men kept twitching, but they had to endure it.
Surely, wealth is just external possession, endure, endure!
At this moment——
The fourth box was opened!
Inside the box, there was only one item, a brocade box.
Chen Daotian was very curious, often things packed alone like this should be quite unique, since the previous three were already so valuable, this fourth one must be the grand finale, certainly even more precious.
Chen Daotian picked up the brocade box, smiling as he opened it!
At the moment the box flipped open.
A faint scent dispersed.
Not quite fragrant, nor foul.
Very neutral, hard to describe the feeling of the scent.
Chen Daotian furrowed his brows, looking at the thing inside the brocade box!
It resembled an egg, dark but when sunlight hit it, a glimmer appeared occasionally on its outline.
"What the hell is this? A glowing century egg?"
To be honest, it really looked like an unopened century egg on the outside.
And it glowed!
Chen Daotian hadn’t seen this thing before, naturally couldn’t recognize it!
However, the three young men recognized it at first glance.
Their eyes widened straight, almost falling out.
This...
How is it possible?! Could it be a mistake!
A thousand questions popped up in their mind, yet they couldn’t speak them aloud!
Chen Daotian squinted at the egg-like thing, saying, "It does resemble a fierce beast core a bit!"
"Cough cough..."
Zhao Tianxing hurriedly coughed.
Chen Daotian said, "What’s the matter? Is your throat uncomfortable?"
"No... Well, my friend, this gift was a mistake! I will go back and reprimand them properly! How could they send such a thing to Tiandu Mountain! It’s outrageous!"
Once Zhao Tianxing said this.
The other two paused, not knowing what he wanted to do.
Zhao Tianxing turned sharply, looking at his subordinates, saying, "Hurry up and pack the item, you embarrassing fellows!"
"Yes, young master!"
The subordinate quickly came to Chen Daotian.
Took the item, placed it back in the box.
"Carry it away!"
"Yes, yes..."
The box was swiftly carried away.
Only then did Zhao Tianxing bow and say, "I’m truly sorry... This was my oversight, next time when I come, I surely will compensate with a new grand gift! Please don’t refuse! Yesterday was all a misunderstanding, and now since today’s misunderstanding has been cleared, we are friends! Hopefully, my friend won’t mind!"
Chen Daotian squinted his eyes, indifferently said, "Good to know... I’ve understood your sincerity already... This midday, off you go!"
Clearly, this was a dismissal!
"Then we three will take our leave!"
"Farewell!"
"Farewell!"
The three cupped their hands, turned and left Tiandu Mountain.
...
Once they left.
Only then did Chen Daotian notice Mo Huajian standing quietly at the side.
Mo Huajian hadn’t spoken the entire time.
Just stood there.
Chen Daotian said, "Miss Mo, what’s the matter?"
Mo Huajian finally spoke, "Do you know what that egg-like item is?"
"No idea."
"That is a twenty-thousand-year fierce beast core!"
Chen Daotian: "..."
"A fierce beast of twenty thousand years... Comparable to a Great Cultivator of the Heaven Stepping Realm. It is said that this fierce beast was born before ancient times... Indeed, a truly ancient fierce beast. Even among the most senior cultivators of the Five Great Domains, no one has seen a fierce beast from twenty thousand years ago. Later... beyond the Tianxing Domain, a meteor fell from the sky... causing a commotion in the world, coincidentally, it killed the twenty-thousand-year fierce beast beyond the Tianxing Domain! Thus, this core was seized by the Tianxing Domain! However... to this day, no one can absorb this core!" Mo Huajian said.
"Such a coincidence it killed it?"
"The meteor was precisely Tianxing Mountain beyond the Tianxing Domain!"
Chen Daotian was dumbfounded!
"Whoa! Such a huge meteor! Not surprising it hit! ... Miss Mo, why didn’t you say it earlier?! If you had said it was a twenty-thousand-year core, no way would I have let them take it away!" Chen Daotian widened his eyes.
Turns out the four boxes only left three boxes of junk!
The real treasure all along was that egg?!
Chen Daotian regretted it immensely, wishing to chop off his own hand.
Mo Huajian said, "Even if I said it, do you think they would leave it to you? Those three clearly wouldn’t have wanted to leave the core behind!"
"Damn it! They played me!" Chen Daotian cursed!
