章 2274: Mission 5

"It's a low-level cultivation bead that my mother left for me. It wouldn't be appropriate for you to simply take it, would it?" Gu Chaoyan stared at Qian Ziang with the gaze reserved for a villain.

As this question was raised…

Qian Ziang's expression underwent a subtle change.

Low-level cultivation beads were a completely different matter from the items he had previously presented.

This was something that couldn't be casually requested.

Not even the Southern Mist Kingdom's royal family could possess such an item.

These mystical artifacts were likely left behind by experts from distant lands.

Shen Lianxue's mother possessed one.

She had given it to Shen Lianxue, yet hadn't even passed it on to the head of the Shen Family. This indicated the item's extraordinary value.

The reason Qian Ziang had refrained from ending the engagement for so many years was because of this very low-level cultivation bead.
