âA thank-you gift?â Beiting Huang avoided Cao Canâs bow and turned to look at the door. She knew very well that Mo Li was still standing at the door. Thinking of this sensitive young man, Beiting Huang shook her head. âI donât think you have anything that I like. I donât think thereâs anything you need to thank me for!â
Cao Can was stunned for a moment. He stood up and stared at the box in his hand. This young person refused without even looking at the thing in the box. Didnât she know that the thing in the box was what she wanted?
However, when he thought of the pill cauldron that this young person casually took out and the flames that she used to refine pills, he knew at a glance that the background behind her was definitely not simple.
âLord!â Cao Can licked his lips with difficulty as he sent the herbs in his hand forward, âWhile helping me catch my current contract beast, the Heavenly Spirit Fire Fox, Liâerâs leg was destroyed by the fire of the Heavenly Spirit Fire Fox. For so many years, the reason why the master and disciple didnât take a step forward was because the knot in our hearts was too deep. The Tendon Replenishment Pill that you refined helped us break the shackles on our bodies and gave us a second life. No matter what request my Lord has, even if itâs the reward for tomorrowâs meeting, I, Cao Can, am willing to hold it with both hands.â
Beiting Huang didnât know how nervous Mo Li was at the door. He was a One Sword Star Spirit Master. Otherwise, he wouldnât have the ability to help Cao Can catch that Heavenly Spirit Fire Fox. His hearing was subtle. He knew every move and word of the people in the room.
He hoped that Beiting Huang would accept this gift. He knew very well what was in the box. However, he had a selfish motive. He didnât want Beiting Huang to accept it. He hoped that Beiting Huang would refine pills for him purely for him.
After so many years, he had closed his heart. Even his teacher, Cao Can, who was so good to him, could not enter his heart.
âWhat happened to the fire fox?â Beiting Huang was still not interested in the contents of the box. She asked Cao Can with a faint smile, âDid you kill it?â
Cao Can was stunned for a moment before shaking his head. âHeâs my intrinsic magical beast. The Heavenly Spirit Fire Foxâs intrinsic fire is the Heavenly Spirit Fire. Otherwise, I wouldnât have spent so much effort to capture this fire fox back then.â
Beiting Huang nodded and turned to walk out. âI donât need to know whatâs in your box. I said before that I donât think anything in your hand catches my eye. Iâm indeed here for that Soul Returning Grass, but I want to win it with my own ability!â
âSir!â Cao Can was very unwilling to give up. He shouted, âWhatâs in this box is the Soul Returning Grass that you want! Iâve said it before. As long as you want it, Iâm willing to offer it with both hands even if itâs the Soul Returning Grass!â
There were some things that Beiting Huang didnât want to say, but this person was too persistent and detestable!
She tilted her head slightly and glanced sideways at Cao Can. âMo Li is a One Sword Star Spirit Master. Even if itâs a nine-star divine beast, as long as he wants to escape, he will have a chance of survival. He was injured by the Heavenly Spirit Fire definitely to save you. You actually didnât mind a magical beast that burned your favorite student and formed a natal contract with it. It can be seen that you still value your career in your heart. Itâs no wonder that you have a knot in your heart and havenât improved for many years.â
The blood drained from Cao Canâs face in an instant. He was very suspicious in his heart. Was this young person really at the age she was showing now? Was she really only fifteen years old? She had interpreted the human heart so thoroughly. Cao Can had lived for more than a hundred years, but he had never seen such a smart young person.
