10 CHOOSING THE GIF (1/2)
The past three days have been very hectic for the whole Mu clan, as well as the other clans. They want to outdo each other. Aiming to be the best of the best.
Due to the compelling reward from the clan head, many treated the task of finding the best gift seriously. They presented all the most precious and valuable treasures that they had, wishing that it will catch the eyes of their clan head.
”I really hope that clan head can consider taking this gift that I prepared”
said one of the clan disciples as they gathered around the main hall.
”HuH!,... you wish. The items that should be gifted to young prince must something that can't just be bought by money” harrumphed one of the inner disciples. His name was Mu Chen.
”Yes you're right, that is why I exhausted a great deal to get this gift”
another disciple butted in as he showed them a gourd.
Just the gourd itself was lavishly looking. It has inscriptions written all over it and one look can tell that there is something special about it.
”Say, Mu Bai, what could be inside that gourd for you to look so confident???”
Mu Chen asked curiously.
”This gourd contains a heavenly wine, it has an excellent healing effect. Any wounds can be treated by just one cup of it at a visible rate”
the man holding the gourd said hauntingly.
”A wine that can heal all wounds?!! That must be expensive”
a disciple who was listening at the side said surprisingly.
”Well, as I told you earlier this gift is not something that can be bought even if you have money, it takes a whole bunch of luck and intelligence to acquire this one” Mu Bai replied with an air of superiority.
”TSK! Don't get so cocky just because of your wine, if I must say it was no near compared to my celestial amulet” another disciple presented his gift.
Mu Tangzi extended his forearms for everyone to see. He was wearing an amulet that has an intricate design on it.
”This amulet can actually shield one from an attacked no matter how powerful it is. It has a protective shield and was fortified by a powerful warlock. It can save you even from a near-death situation” he added.
”Ohh... I recalled that Mu Tangzi once had a fortuitous encounter on an ancient domain and I heard that he get many treasures from there” one disciple whispered to his friend.
”No wonder he could present such a valuable gift, he was really lucky.”
”Enough everyone, clan head will be arriving soon so you will each have a chance to show the gifts that you prepared. No need to cause unnecessary disturbance” an elder came and intercepted the show off when he noticed the commotion inside the main hall.
When Mu Ruochen arrived, the main hall was densely packed already. Soon, the presentation began and treasures after treasure were neatly arranged by raw forming a long horizontal line.
Mu Ruochen brought two people with him to assist him in choosing the best gift. The first elder was standing next to him, while on his right stands a handsome young man. His domineering aura radiated even in his simple gesture as he was casually sweeping glances on the treasures. This handsome young man was Mu Lingxi's older brother Mu Gaoyan.
