Chapter 180: Congratulatory Gift (2)
Bai Yunchen did not respond, but the disciple behind Shao Xingjiang said, “Senior brother, Master Uncle Rong Yi is over there.”
Shao Xingjiang looked at Rong Yi’s direction and shouted, “Uncle Rong...”
His temporizing junior brother immediately walked over and invited Rong Yi.
Shao Xingjiang laughed, “Uncle Rong, I really envy you and Master Uncle Bai for your good relationship. If it were someone else,he would definitely have left the peak to himself alone.”
Rong Yi replied, “Yes. If it were your brothers and sisters, they would never offer the peak to you.”
The smile on Shao Xingjiang’s went a bit stiff, “I don’t have the such good luck like as Master Uncle Bai to have such a good junior brother like you.”
Rong Yi smiled at Bai Yunchen, “Senior brother, look at him. He is jealous of you and his face is crooked because of jealousy.”
Bai Yunchen chuckled.
People around could not hold their laughter, either.
Shao Xingjiang ceased to laugh, “Uncle Rong, you have used the wrong word. I am envious, not jealous. Well, Uncle Rong has such a good relationship with Master Uncle Bai. I wonder what gift you have given to Master Uncle Bai.”
“I nearly forget without your reminder.” Rong Yi took out a long red box and handed it to Bai Yunchen, “Yunchen, congratulate you to sit on the throne of the peak. Hope your cultivation will rise fast like thunder and lightning.”
Bai Yunchen then said, “Rong Yi, I’m so happy you could come today. Why bother about the gift?”
“It ought to be.” Rong Yi slipped the box into his hand and said with his eyes focusing on Shao Xingjiang, “Keep it safe. It’s a big treasure. Don’t let someone steal it away!”
Shao Xingjiang’s eyes flashed with scorn, “What kind of treasure can you get?”
“The gift is unique in the world. No one could buy it even if spending tens of thousands of divine spiritual stones.”
Everyone’s curiosity was intrigued by Rong Yi’s words. “What kind of treasure could not even be bought by divine spiritual stones?”
Bai Yunchen touched the edge of the box, wanting to open it on the spot to see what was inside.
Shao Xingjiang sneered, “Uncle Rong, I heard you can’t even afford the rouge and pearl powder. How could you have the money to buy a gift? Aren’t you bragging way too much? If your gift is not as good as you said, Master Uncle Bai would be very disappointed.”
Bai Yunchen looked at Shao Xingjiang and said, “Even if Rong Yi gave me an empty box, I would be very happy. It is a priceless treasure to me. Divine spiritual stones could never be equal to it.”
Rong Yi laughed, “How can I send my senior brother an empty box?”
Bai Yunchen explained, “I just want to say that no matter what Yi sends me, I would be happy.”
Rong Yi once again felt Bai Yunchen treated the real Rong Yi sincerely. Perhaps it was like what Yan Qiushuang said, Bai Yunchen was good to the original Rong Yi because of guilt.
Shao Xingjiang said, “Master Uncle Bai, why not open it in front of everyone so we can see what big treasure my Uncle Rong has sent to you.”
Shao Xingjiang was actually not very interested in the so-called big treasure. He was more willing to seeing Rong Yi get embarrassed before people.
The disciples behind him were all eager spectators, “Master Uncle Bai, today is a big day for you. Please satisfy our curiosity for once.”
Other people also joined their urge.
Even Rong Yi began to shout, “Yes, open it, let them see how much I value my senior brother.”
Bai Yunchen wanted to make a confirmation, “Do you really want me to open it?”
“Everyone wants to see, come on, just show them.”
Bai Yunchen hesitated a bit and untied the red lace on the box.
All the people around gathered round them.
Even Guo Caiqing and Jin Yueyao were curious about what was in the box.
Bai Yunchen opened the lid of the box and a pile of yellow runes with some strange patterns on them was revealed.
Everyone looked disappointed. They had thought they could really see some unique treasure.
Shao Xingjiang scoffed, “So this is the so-called ‘treasure’?”
A disciple behind him laughed, “Master Uncle Rong, if you’re in need of runes, I can lend you as much as you want, enough for you to use as toilet paper.”
Rong Yi smiled without saying a word.
Jin Yueyao sneered, “I thought it was really some valuable thing. It turned out to be a pile of worthless yellow paper.”
Bai Yunchen squinted. The patterns on them were very strange, similar to the enchanted runes he saw some time ago. Was it...
He couldn’t help but look at Rong Yi.
Guo Caiqing stared at the patterns on them and said, “The patterns are strange.”
“Yes, I have never seen such before. What is it?” Other people beside them two also found something unusual.
The disciple who came with Shao Xingjiang taunted, “A bunch of scrawly handwriting.”
Guo Caiqing knitted her eyebrows, “It doesn’t look like scribbling.”
A disciple who knew how to make runes said, “You’re right, but the patterns on them are a bit like...”
“Like what?”
