chapter 3958 long chen’s betrothal gift
within the cases were two mesmerizing reddish-brown jugs, each about the size of a fist. adorning the surface of these jugs was an intricately carved vermilion bird with seven ethereal clouds around it. also, the image of the vermilion bird was so vivid, as though it would fly off of the jug and into the clouds.
upon closer examination, millions of tiny runes actually formed a complete formation in each cloud, emanating different colors. to their surprise, the seven clouds were seven formations with energy flowing within them.
actually, even an amateur could see that the jugs were amazing treasures just from the fact that such complicated formations were carved into them.
moreover, the auspicious clouds covering the vermilion bird possessed immense power. it was like they were their own world.
“could this be... the legendary vermilion bird pear flower wine?” jiang huixin was filled with shock as she looked at the jug in her hand.
“seven auspicious clouds, with the vermilion bird’s eyes being dark purple. the purple eye vermilion bird loves the divine flame pear flower, and it will only make its nest on top of it! it probably is real!” xu lanxin looked closely at the carvings, also feeling shocked.
“if it is real, then this gift is too precious. look at the seal. this wine is at least a million years old, and it might be one-of-a-kind. furthermore, the jug has a formation that will absorb the essence of heaven and earth to nourish the wine. who knows what purity this wine has reached after a million years?” jiang huixin rubbed the jug lightly. long chen had style when it came to spending money.
it was because the divine flame pear flower was essentially extinct. even if it did exist, every petal would be a priceless treasure, costing an astronomical amount of money. what kind of person would gather millions of such flower petals to make wine?
“open it and look! there’s no way i can calm myself without looking,” urged xu lanxin.
however, jiang huixin hesitated. this was a priceless treasure. if it was real, then the formation would be ruined once opened. after that, the wine would need to be drunk within a few days, or its power would gradually fade away.
although the two of them were empresses of the vermilion bird empire, they had only ever heard of such a legendary wine and had never seen it before.
thus, the two of them were very curious. these two wine jugs had extraordinary origins. but once opened, they would be lost forever, akin to destroying a heavenly treasure.
“big sister, open it! there are two jugs anyways. if they’re real, there will still be one more. what if that little fellow was toying with us? you saw how strange he was. i feel like he really would be capable of anything,” said xu lanxin.
“this vermilion bird pear flower wine is stronger than the legends. even with our high cultivation bases, our energy was further purified. perhaps this can give us an opportunity to break through our current bottleneck! this gift is too precious!” jiang huixin looked at the tiny jug of wine with a complicated expression.
although it was only a tiny jug of wine, the space inside could fit thousands of cups of wine. moreover, wine on this level was something priceless, even if it was just a single drop.
“that child has a heart.” xu lanxin sighed. she hadn’t liked long chen before, but after he had taken out such a priceless treasure, she had no choice but to revise her judgment.
in truth, long chen had no idea just how precious this gift was. it was simply prepared by xia guhong for long chen to be given to the two empresses, and long chen only did as he said.
“if you accept other people’s food, you can’t say no to them. let’s go. we’ll get xiaoyun to try it as well.” jiang huixin picked up the wine jug.
“if big brother xiaoyun knows it is from long chen, he definitely won’t drink it.” xu lanxin shook her head. she understood his temper far too well.
“no problem. he doesn’t need to know it was from long chen. we can use something else and pretend that it was long chen’s gift, then give him the wine. once he knows, it’ll be too late.” jiang huixin smiled.
“that’s a good idea.” xu lanxin laughed. the two of them left the palace just like that, laughing.
...
“long chen!”
long chen had just left the palace and had not gone far under the lead of a eunuch when he heard someone calling to him.
he turned in delight to see yu qingxuan wearing an imperial dress. she was like a noble fairy appearing before him, wearing a sweet smile on her face as beautiful as a flower blooming.
“qingxuan!”
long chen hastily walked to her side. however, just as he reached out to grab her hands, a large figure blocked his way.
“what mountain village did you come out of to not know the rules? you dare to show disrespect to the princess?”
