After cleaning, the Merfolk Pearl was a sparkling and translucent bead, looking quite beautiful.
Qianxun felt the Merfolk Pearl in his hand, and after a moment said, "The Merfolk Pearl can ward off evil and disaster, and is immune to all diseases. When I go back, I’ll have someone make it into an ornament for you to wear."
This thing had some benefits for her, but overall it wasn’t very useful. However, if it were given to Yanzhi, the benefits would be plentiful.
Still, since Huo Yanran had once placed it in her heart, making it into a necklace seemed somewhat unsettling, it would be better to make it into a bracelet.
Hearing Qianxun’s words, Huo Tianzun didn’t object, but only said with a smile, "What about you?"
"This object is precious to humans, but to me, it is neither here nor there," said Qianxun.
"Alright, then I’ll listen to you," Huo Tianzun said softly.
Seeing this, Huang Feng felt goosebumps all over her body.
No wonder Yingying and the others always said that the boss seemed like a different person when he met his sister-in-law. Today, she truly gained new insight.
But just then, a male researcher in the room suddenly pointed at the operating table with a frightened expression and exclaimed, "This is bad, you all need to look! The body is dissolving!"
Hearing this, Qianxun and the others immediately looked back at the operating table.
They then saw Huo Yanran’s body, which had seemed to be in a deep sleep, suddenly begin to collapse and wither rapidly. In just a few seconds, only a skeleton remained.
"Her physical body could only be maintained in its previous state with the Merfolk Pearl. Now that the Merfolk Pearl has been removed, it naturally can’t maintain its original form," said Qianxun.
Upon hearing this, Huang Feng felt a sense of relief, then turned to Qianxun and said, "Sister-in-law, I know the Merfolk Pearl can eliminate all diseases, but looking at the state of this body, the Merfolk Pearl might even have the effect of eternal youth!"
Qianxun nodded in response, "Naturally."
Huang Feng then asked, "They say that eating Merfolk meat can grant eternal life, but I wonder if the Merfolk Pearl has that kind of effect?"
There are many legends about Merfolk, varying culturally and passed down differently.
She only knew a fraction of them.
But sister-in-law, being a Great Demon, might know more. Fresh chapters posted on novel(ꜰ)ire.net
Hearing Huang Feng’s words, Qianxun quickly said, "Eating Merfolk meat indeed grants immortality, but one becomes a living dead, devoid of warmth. However, with the Merfolk Pearl, one’s body temperature can be normal, just without a heartbeat. As for whether the Merfolk Pearl provides eternal life, I’m not sure."
For demons, this Merfolk Pearl was no different from an inner core, the greatest benefit for her was just an increase in cultivation.
As for what effects the Merfolk Pearl might have after being taken, she was uncertain.
After all, she hadn’t heard of anyone who had consumed a Merfolk Pearl.
Huang Feng pondered upon hearing this.
Then, Qianxun said to Huang Feng, "This body must be dealt with properly. Nothing about tonight can be leaked."
Upon hearing this, Huang Feng immediately said, "Don’t worry, sister-in-law. Of course."
"Alright, we’ll head back first," said Qianxun.
Hearing this, Huang Feng quickly stepped forward in her high heels and reached for the drawer, then took out an album of Qianxun’s and handed it over, "Since sister-in-law is here, how about you honor us with your signature before leaving?"
Seeing this, Qianxun couldn’t help but have a bittersweet smile.
She then took the pen Huang Feng offered and quickly signed her name on the cover of the album.
