In Xia Chujian's narration, Xia Yuanfang seemed to be immersed in the tense and exciting hunting mission.
After Xia Chujian finished speaking, Xia Yuanfang casually asked, "What exactly does the relic you mentioned look like?"
Because Xia Chujian hated tentacles, she did not describe the appearance of the relic species when she was telling the story.
Now that Xia Yuanfang had asked about it, he could only curl his lips and gesture with his hands: "...It's ugly, like an octopus leg, but it's an extra large octopus leg, as thick as an elephant's trunk."
Xia Yuanfang's face turned pale with worry.
Xia Chujian was stunned for a moment: "Aunt, what's wrong with you? Are you scared?"
Xia Yuanfang forced a smile, her voice still gentle and calm: "I was indeed scared. This is too dangerous. Chu Jian, please quit this association. I'm already recovered from my illness, and you've made a lot of money. We have enough money for the rest of our lives without having to work. Auntie doesn't want you to be in danger."
Xia Chujian still couldn't bear to give up his job as a hunter.
She hummed and twisted around Xia Yuanfang, saying, "Aunt, our team is really good, and we've been very prosperous recently. Oh, and we went to the Exotic Beast Forest a few days ago and found the extremely rare plant Blood Qilin! And Kongsang!"

"...found a very rare plant, the Blood Qilin..."
“…What else?!”
"And Kongsang!"
Xia Yuanfang approached Xia Chujian's face, his eyes solemn, and asked word by word: "Did you really find Kongsang? And the Blood Qilin?"
Xia Chujian hurriedly took out two fresh-keeping storage bags from his pocket.
The one containing the blood unicorn was empty, but the other one still contained leaves and petals of Kongsang.
She took out the storage bag containing the Kongsang and handed it to Xia Yuanfang, "Here, this is the Kongsang."
Then, holding the empty storage bag, he said to Xia Yuanfang embarrassedly, "Aunt, this bag originally contained nine blood qilins, but in your ward, I acted like a lunatic and ate all of them..."
