"Huh? What does he want with me?" Su Luo murmured softly, then glanced at Gu Zhiqi, "Little Fairy, I’ve got to go busy myself."
Gu Zhiqi nodded her head.
Su Luo left quickly, and it was only then that Su Yunling looked at Gu Zhiqi and asked, "Are you okay?"
"Your thing, it just bumped into my ring," Su Yunling said to Gu Zhiqi and, after thinking for a moment, added another sentence, "Seems like it hit pretty hard, cried quite sadly."
Last time he met with the child at Soraya’s barbecue stall, he felt something attached to his button, and this time, he felt the presence of that thing again, clearer than before, as if it was a spiritual energy entity.
He could feel Chubby Chiu’s presence?
Gu Zhiqi lifted her brows, looking at Su Yunling, "What thing?"
"It should be, a spiritual energy entity," Su Yunling said uncertainly.
When Su Yunling mentioned the spiritual energy entity, Gu Zhiqi remembered that she had given him the Cultivation Technique for spiritual power last time.
Using the same method to cultivate spiritual power indeed might lead to the power developing in a similar direction.
But, that was also a one in ten thousand chance; she just happened to encounter it.
This meant that, in the future, Su Yunling might also be able to converse with Chubby Chiu through spiritual power.
This possibility did not exactly please Gu Zhiqi.
"Can I take a look at your ring?" Gu Zhiqi, not in the best of moods, was evidently more interested in the ring.
"Of course." Su Yunling said, taking the ring off his index finger and handing it to Gu Zhiqi.
Gu Zhiqi reached out to take it, and when she saw the blue gemstone embedded in the ring, her hand tightened slightly around the ring.
Staring at the ring in her hand, Gu Zhiqi murmured softly, "Leviathan’s Eye?"
"You recognize it?" Su Yunling, hearing Gu Zhiqi’s murmur, raised his eyebrows and asked her.
Gu Zhiqi did not answer Su Yunling’s question, but instead stared at the ring in her hand, somewhat absentminded.
About seven or eight seconds later, Gu Zhiqi finally lifted her eyes to Su Yunling, "Where did you get this ring?"
Listening to Gu Zhiqi’s question, Su Yunling slightly lowered his eyes, "It’s a keepsake from my mother."
Upon hearing this, Gu Zhiqi knew that the origin of the ring was probably a mystery, and she handed the ring back to Su Yunling, "Sorry to have brought up a painful memory."
"It’s alright." Su Yunling said, taking the ring back and then putting it back on his finger.
After putting the ring on, his finger brushed over the ring on his hand, and with a flash of luster, a delicate bracelet appeared in the palm.
He handed the bracelet to Gu Zhiqi, "Here you go."
Staring at the bracelet he handed over, she was slightly startled for a moment before saying, "A storage device?"
"You recognize it? If you do, then I won’t go into details," Su Yunling continued, maintaining the gesture of offering the bracelet, "I don’t know what little girls like, so I crafted it into a bracelet. If you really don’t like it, I can craft another item that you prefer."
Gu Zhiqi didn’t reach out to take it but instead looked up at Su Yunling, "This... is this expensive?"
"No charge, a reciprocal gift," he said with the corners of his mouth twitching slightly, somewhat speechlessly, "You helped my brother complete the Cultivation Technique, I can’t let you do it for nothing."
Gu Zhiqi was silent for a few seconds but finally reached out to take it, "Thank you, brother."
A smile flickered in Su Yunling’s eyes, "It’s only proper to return the favor."
