When the box was opened, a beautiful hairpin appeared inside. The hairpin was exquisitely crafted, especially the magnolia blossoms carved on the head, which were about to bloom and were very beautiful.
Ye Sisi's eyes lit up. This hairpin was really beautiful. She basically wore the "Mountains and Rivers in Rain" pattern on her head. She would occasionally use the one Bai Luochen bought for her before, but what girl would complain about having too much jewelry?
"Thank you, Third Senior Brother."
Seeing Ye Sisi happy, Lin Shuangluo breathed a sigh of relief and then introduced, "This hairpin is a defensive spiritual artifact, but its material is not much different from that of a spiritual treasure. It can withstand three full-force attacks from a Nascent Soul cultivator."
Ye Sisi nodded happily and immediately took down the "Mountains and Rivers in Rain" painting, skillfully changing her hairstyle.
Then everyone turned to look at Ye Shubai. When they met Liu Shuang's bright eyes, Ye Shubai's old habit kicked in again.
Lin Shuangluo was speechless. "Fourth Junior Brother, what are you shy about? We all know each other perfectly well."
Ye Shubai coughed lightly and took out a book that looked somewhat damaged. "Junior Sister, this is a long-lost book of talismans. It contains information about drawing talismans in the void. It should be very useful to you."
"Thank you, Fourth Senior Brother."
Ye Sisi accepted the gifts with a smile. She was always happy to receive gifts, and her senior brothers and sisters had put a lot of thought into them. These gifts were clearly prepared over a long period of time, and she was very pleased with herself.
Now it was Bai Luochen's turn. He smiled and took out a necklace with a small, exquisite teardrop-shaped pendant. As soon as Ye Sisi took it, she felt her nascent soul tremble a few times with excitement.
She diverted some of her attention to observe the nascent soul in her dantian, and then noticed that the flower bud on the nascent soul's head swayed, looking quite excited.
Even the petal that was about to open looked ready to bloom completely.
She stared curiously at the pendant in her hand, carefully sensing it, and discovered that it emanated an extremely rich wood elemental energy. Although she didn't know what it was, it was undoubtedly a treasure.
"Fifth Senior Brother, what's inside this pendant?"
Bai Luochen smiled smugly: "Wood Essence."
Everyone stared at him curiously, and Su Jiuli couldn't help but ask, "Where did you come from, Mu Jingyuan?"
It should be known that the essence of wood can only be found in the body of a wood spirit, and the awakening of a wood spirit requires not only a long time but also a great opportunity. In any case, they have never seen a wood spirit in the Cang Realm.
Even if you did see it, why would someone give away the essence they've accumulated over thousands of years of cultivation? That would be equivalent to giving away hundreds of years of their own hard-earned savings.
Ye Sisi looked at Bai Luochen with curiosity; she had long suspected that this guy was no ordinary person.
Look at them, she's practically the adopted daughter of the Heavenly Dao, and Su Jiuli is practically the adopted son of the Heavenly Dao, yet even with their increased fortunes, they haven't been able to comprehend even a single innate divine ability.
Bai Luochen, that simpleton, comprehended two innate abilities while only at the Foundation Establishment stage. The key point is that the two innate abilities he comprehended didn't really match his attributes.
That is to say, it is very unusual for a cultivator with a fire elemental root to comprehend a wood-based healing technique.
Bai Luochen, feeling embarrassed under everyone's gaze, said, "Ahem, actually, I have a secret I haven't had a chance to tell you yet."
Lin Shuangluo suddenly interrupted him, quickly tapping Chu Nianxue on the back of the neck. This little girl was too young to hear any secrets; otherwise, the entire sect would probably know by tomorrow morning.
After he finished everything, he said, "Junior Brother, you can continue."
Bai Luochen felt a little guilty, after all, he had kept it a secret from everyone for so long: "Actually, I only recently obtained the inheritance. One of my ancestors was a wood spirit, so I have a part of the wood spirit bloodline."
No one asked him why he kept it from them. They trusted him enough to know that. Since he hadn't said anything before, there must have been another reason. There was no need to pry too much.
Ye Sisi held the necklace in her hand, feeling conflicted. Finally, she couldn't help but say, "So...so inside is...your essence..."
She herself was somewhat at a loss for words after she finished speaking, and the expressions on the faces of the others were also extremely strange.
Bai Luochen jumped up and down: "I just have the bloodline of the Wood Spirit, I'm not a Wood Spirit, where would I get the Wood Spirit essence? Stop thinking about nonsense all day long."
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing this, and Ye Sisi quickly wiped the goosebumps off her arms.
"Fifth Brother, don't be angry. You only said half of what you meant, so you can't blame me entirely. I won't take the blame for this."
"These wood essences are what I found based on my awakened inherited memories. There are only this many in total. Whether you wear them or refine them directly, they will be very beneficial to you."
At this point, Bai Luochen hesitated for a moment, then looked at Ye Sisi and said, "Junior Sister, there's something I've been struggling with for a long time, but I think I should tell you."
Ye Sisi looked at Bai Luochen, who had a troubled expression, and blinked: "Fifth Senior Brother, what's wrong with you? Just say what you want to say, there's no need to be so conflicted."
To be honest, it's rare to see such a conflicted expression on Bai Luochen's face, and it's even more remarkable that he's been struggling with this for quite some time, judging from his words.
Bai Luochen took a deep breath, looked around, and said, "I'm done talking, so please don't hit me. I'm definitely not talking nonsense."
Upon hearing this, everyone's expressions turned serious; these words were clearly not pleasant to hear.
Ye Sisi actually wanted to say that she didn't want to know, but she was also incredibly curious, so she was a bit conflicted.
But Bai Luochen didn't give him time to hesitate and said directly, "Junior Sister, you're not human."
Ye Sisi...
Wait, is this guy swearing?
