Meng Hongchen chewed on the two Immortal Herbs for a while before swallowing them.
The moment she did, her body suddenly became alternately hot and cold, but both temperatures were within a bearable range.
Of course, if these weren't rewards from the System, and instead found around the Icefire Polarized Eyes, eating them rashly would definitely lead to death.
Meng Hongchen started to sit cross-legged on the ground and closed her eyes.
Jing Hongchen watched from the side, not daring to step forward and disturb her.
Gradually, red and blue halos began to flicker alternately on Meng Hongchen's body, followed closely by a peculiar croaking sound.
Just as Jing Hongchen thought of approaching his granddaughter, a frosty blue toad materialized behind her, but the toad's eyes were red.
Its body was as cold as ice, and yet its eyes were as fiery hot as flames.
Ruby-Eyed Frost Toad!
At this moment, red and blue lights continuously surged towards the Frost Toad's phantom from Meng Hongchen's body.
However, the phantom of the Frost Toad didn't become more substantial, but rather, its blue and red colors became more solid, and its patterns clearer.
Lin Yi knew that these two Immortal Herbs not only replenished the emptiness in Meng Hongchen caused by the use of medicinal pills in her cultivation but also enhanced the Ruby-Eyed Frost Toad's ability to condense its poisonous cold.
Sounds of something shattering emanated from Meng Hongchen's body as she opened her eyes, shock in her gaze.
"My Soul Power has also increased by three levels!"
"Really?"
Jing Hongchen, seeing that his granddaughter had finished merging, walked up to her, feeling reassured.
"Yes, Grandfather, it's true!"
Meng Hongchen nodded with a smile.
She thought for a moment and then swiftly got up, leaping lightly over the Linked Soul Guidance Cannon Platform and running towards Lin Yi.
"The senior has been so kind to me, I want to give Lin Yi senior a gift too!"
Lin Yi looked at her calmly, "No need, these are what you gained through injury. We're all exchanging fairly through injury, no one is special."
Meng Hongchen frowned upon hearing this, "Is Lin Yi senior a straight man? When a pretty girl gives you a gift, you should graciously accept it. Otherwise, you'll surely never find a wife."
Lin Yi: ???
Damn it, Meng Hongchen! Are you cursing me?
No other woman has this many issues; why are you so troublesome?
"Then you can give it."
Lin Yi still opted to compromise, too lazy to listen to her ongoing complaints.
Upon hearing this, Meng Hongchen giggled, taking out a beautiful Amethyst Pendant from her person.
"Wow! It's an Amethyst Pendant! Sister Meng said that she would give it to the man she fancies in the future!"
An exclamation immediately came from the students of the Royal Academy.
Listening to this, Lin Yi's extended hand stiffened mid-air, but Meng Hongchen proactively stepped forward, draping the pendant around Lin Yi's neck.
She carried the unique fragrance of a young girl on her, indeed, at the age of fifteen or sixteen, even the scent of hormones can overpower the smell of the body.
And Jing Hongchen, who usually thought Meng Hongchen was acting rashly, surprisingly, did not stop his granddaughter's actions, but instead, chuckled secretly at the side.
This scene was just captured by Ju Zi (Orange).
This future empress with meticulous thoughts glanced in Lin Yi's direction, seemingly lost in thought as well.
Bi Bidong couldn't stand it anymore, and her beautiful eyes narrowed at the spectacle.
"Why does she get to give gifts and not me?"
She raised her slender hand to search her person but realized she had nothing suitable to give as a gift on her.
"Yue Guan, give me your Elder's Token."
"Ah? What does Your Majesty intend to..."
Chrysanthemum Douluo nervously handed over his Elder's Token.
With the Elder's Token in hand, Bi Bidong glanced at the pendant around Lin Yi's neck, her lips curving into a light smile as an idea came to her.
Placing the token upright, Bi Bidong swiftly poked a hole in the metal token with her delicate index finger, causing Chrysanthemum Douluo to wince.
Damn! Such strong finger strength!
Bi Bidong then reached behind her head and took off the purple hair tie she used to tie her hair, letting her hair cascade down like a waterfall, making her look breathtakingly beautiful at that moment.
She threaded the hair tie through the hole at the top of the token, creating a "Spirit Hall Elder's Token pendant."
Bi Bidong looked at it satisfied and was about to approach him when Qian Renxue suddenly nudged her from behind.
"Please give this to the senior for me."
Qian Renxue whispered, showing a gold chain in her pale palm, each part forming the necklace was a golden feather.
It was a birthday gift from Thousand Waves to Qian Renxue when she was three years old.
Bi Bidong looked at her, hesitated for a moment, and took the necklace.
Qian Renxue blushed and immediately withdrew her hand.
"Senior, if descendants from ten thousand years later can give you gifts, and I have received so much grace from you... I want to give you a gift on a personal basis too!"
Bi Bidong said earnestly.
In fact, she had given Lin Yi many things in silence, but Meng Hongchen's gesture made Bi Bidong feel the need to give Lin Yi something memorable in front of him.
An Elder's Token by the Pope of the Spirit Hall tied by a hair tie should leave a lasting impression on Lin Yi, right? It should, right?
Lin Yi, seeing Bi Bidong's determined face, felt somewhat helpless.
His principle was to never accept even a needle or thread from the masses, which put him in a tough spot.
"If senior doesn't agree, then I will not allow the members of Martial Soul Hall to attack."
Bi Bidong said seriously, but with a polite bow.
