Chapter 682: Chapter 543 Gather at the State Mansion_1
“`
But when old friends who hadn’t seen each other for many years finally t again after a long ti,
He personally presented them with the Gold Core Defense Spirit Talismans that he had drawn himself.
Once this happened,
whether it was Master Luo Jing or True Monarch Yun Jing,
they both felt a warm current surging in their hearts at this mont.
Had He Song given them any other gift, even if it was an incredibly precious treasure,
having seen and known a great deal within the Treasure Pavilion, and certainly not lacking in various treasures, they wouldn’t have taken it too much to heart.
Perhaps, they would even have had doubts about the purpose of He Song’s visit.
Decades apart, and a lavish gift upon the first eting.
Such behavior, to say there is no kindness without a cause, or it’s either treachery or thievery, would not be too much.
After all, if there is no favor to ask, why bother selecting a precious gift to give?
Of course,
no matter how precious the treasure, if it were of no use to them, they wouldn’t give it another thought.
Unless the item could indeed be of help,
then perhaps,
they might refuse to accept it.
Or they might just place it high up in a cabinet after acceptance.
In any case, they certainly wouldn’t have the thoughts they were having right now.
They might even suspect He Song’s intentions behind the gift.
However,
when the gift He Song personally presented
was not so extrely valuable item, but rather Defense Spirit Amulets he had drawn himself, whose value wasn’t high and were rely for personal protection,
both Master Luo Jing and True Monarch Yun Jing imdiately understood why he had given this particular gift.
It seed He Song truly cared for their safety.
Knowing that the Sun Faction and the God Locking Sect had been at war ti and again, which could potentially involve them,
He Song had spent the past decades improving his skills, and now he had specifically brought the Defense Spirit Amulets he created for them.
How could such sincerity make anyone doubt his motives?
Perhaps, He Song’s progress over the years was not because of this reason alone.
But the sentint he showed, the two of them truly felt it.
To rember them after he had advanced his own skills,
and to personally draw a large number of Gold Core Defense Spirit Talismans for them,
now he had even presented all of these talismans to them.
Such consideration for their well-being, and concern for their safety, how could there be any ill intentions?
Upon receiving the jade box from He Song, Luo Jing and Yun Jing exchanged glances, each seeing a deep joy in the other’s eyes.
Being inside the Treasure Pavilion, they had received nurous gifts on ordinary days.
Especially after both had successfully stepped into the Golden Elixir Realm, all kinds of gifts were even more endless.
Even very valuable gifts weren’t new to them.
But,
like today, to receive a thoughtful gift from an old friend that could make them safer, was indeed a first in their history.
He Song’s gift truly brought surprise to their hearts.
Consequently, their perception of He Song greatly improved as well.
However, neither Master Luo Jing nor Master Yun Jing opened the jade box in front of He Song, instead, they both directly placed the boxes into their storage bags.
In the Cultivation World, gifts from unfamiliar people naturally need to be checked on the spot to avoid being fooled.
But for close friends, receiving a gift is not sothing to be opened right away.
Even extending one’s divine sense to inspect what the gift truly is while facing the giver is quite offensive.
After all, the relationship between friends is not the sa as with others.
Giving a gift could really just be a way to show care.
If the value is not high, but the sentint is strong,
to others, it may invite mockery or criticism.
Luo Jing and Yun Jing, being Jubao Pavilion monks, were naturally clear about this.
With their experience, since they had already heard from He Song about what was inside the jade boxes, they would naturally not check them right then.
It’s not that they didn’t want to open the jade boxes imdiately to see what gifts they contained.
It was just that the place where the three of them were gathered was crowded.
He Song could give out gifts despite the public gaze,
but they could not open and display the gifts to everyone.
Although He Song said that what’s inside the jade box was all Gold Core Defense Spirit Talismans,
he didn’t ntion the quantity.
What if they opened the box and found only a dozen or twenty? Wouldn’t that be a joke to onlookers?
A Golden Elixir Master giving such a ager gift would certainly affect He Song’s reputation negatively.
Even if opening the box revealed a large quantity of talismans, it might at most evoke so admiration.
But if it annoyed He Song who had co to give the gift, the loss would outweigh the gain.
Though this place was inside the Treasure Pavilion,
and virtually no such situation would arise under the deterrence of the three Golden Elixir Masters,
having spent a long ti with He Song, the two understood the word “caution” a bit more.
Better to be safe than sorry.
Therefore, to avoid such a scenario, they both tacitly chose not to open the jade box, completely extinguishing that possibility.
Moreover, if the aforentioned situation did occur,
this gift, which was precious in their eyes, might beco proof of He Song’s stinginess in the mouths of others.
