Chapter 51 Gathering Fangirls at the KTV Entrance!
The night was deep, and the neon lights along the street were flashing wildly.
The group stood outside the opulent entrance of the KTV, the atmosphere slightly awkward.
Lu Jingchen looked at Xia Wanxing, who was standing awkwardly in front of him, and smiled gently.
Lu Jingchen spoke up: "Xia, thank you for speaking up for me earlier."
"If it weren't for you, that situation would have been really difficult to handle."
Xia Wanxing waved her hands hurriedly, her face full of guilt, her head almost touching her chest.
Xia Wanxing hurriedly said, "Brother, please don't be so polite with me."
"In fact, I should be the one apologizing to you."
"If I hadn't dragged Qingyuan along, this whole mess wouldn't have happened."
Lu Qingyuan crossed her arms, pouted, and looked disgusted.
Lu Qingyuan bluntly stated, "Wanxing, to be honest, your friends aren't very good."
"They're just a bunch of scheming men and scheming women; not one of them is reliable."
Xia Wanxing frowned instantly as she recalled the unpleasant events that had occurred in the private room.
A flash of barely suppressed anger crossed his eyes, and his teeth clenched so tightly they made a grinding sound.
Xia Wanxing gritted her teeth and said, "Don't worry, I will never associate with them again."
"This fake friendship, whoever wants it can have it, I'm not putting up with it anymore."
After she finished speaking, she suddenly raised her head and looked at Lu Jingchen with bright eyes.
Her eyes were filled with undisguised admiration and anticipation, like a little fangirl.
Xia Wanxing said, "And brother, from now on you can call me Wanxing too."
"Don't call me Xia anymore, it's too formal."
Lu Jingchen nodded slightly and agreed with a smile.
Lu Jingchen said, "Alright, Wanxing. It's getting late, go back and rest early."
"Be careful on the road, and let Qingyuan know you're home safely."
Xia Wanxing nodded obediently and stood still.
After watching Lu Jingchen and his sister walk away, he turned around and hailed a taxi to leave.
The Lu family villa was quiet late at night.
Lu Jingchen closed the door to his room and sat down at his desk.
He took out the jade unicorn that Jiang Zhenbang had given him from his pocket.
I placed it under the lamp and examined it carefully.
A faint, ethereal light flowed across the surface of the jade unicorn.
You can vaguely see dense and intricate patterns on it.
Lu Jingchen muttered to himself thoughtfully, "This restriction is quite ingenious."
"Judging from the patterns, it's probably quite old."
"One can imagine how powerful this restriction must have been at its peak."
He made hand seals and gestured towards the jade unicorn.
Several streams of pure spiritual energy flowed from his fingertips into the jade unicorn.
As a result, the jade unicorn remained completely still, showing no reaction whatsoever.
Instead, the spiritual energy he had injected bounced back intact.
Lu Jingchen frowned slightly, his face full of doubt.
Lu Jingchen muttered to himself, "I wonder which old monster left this restriction."
"I want to see what good stuff is hidden inside."
Undeterred, he rapidly changed hand seals with his fingertips.
I tried more than a dozen methods to crack the code, using every trick in the book.
Fine beads of sweat appeared on his forehead, but it was all for nothing.
After a long while, Lu Jingchen finally put his hand down.
He let out a long sigh, his face full of helplessness.
Lu Jingchen said, "It really won't work; this restriction is too strong."
"We can only wait until its power weakens a little more before trying again."
He placed the jade unicorn on the table and shook his head.
He thought to himself, "This time we've met our match."
Having lived for so many years, this is the first time I've been stumped by a restriction; it's utterly absurd.
Several days passed in the blink of an eye.
Lu Jingchen sat cross-legged in front of the desk, his eyes closed, and spiritual energy circulated around his body.
He suddenly opened his eyes, a glint of light flashing in them.
He gathered spiritual energy in his fingers and suddenly tapped the jade unicorn's brow.
Lu Jingchen shouted in a low voice, "Break!"
There was a crisp cracking sound.
The eerie light on the surface of the jade unicorn shattered instantly.
A surge of powerful energy instantly emanated from the jade unicorn.
Immediately afterwards, a ball of crimson flame ignited out of thin air.
The blazing flames illuminated the entire room with a bright red glow.
Lu Jingchen immediately released his divine sense, wanting to investigate the situation inside.
As soon as their divine sense approached, it was forcefully blocked by the flames.
Lu Jingchen's face showed surprise.
Lu Jingchen muttered to himself, "Even divine sense can't penetrate it?"
"It seems that this jade unicorn is indeed extraordinary and not an ordinary item."
The flames burned for a short while before gradually subsiding.
It slowly shrank into a small ball of fire and burrowed back into the jade unicorn.
Lu Jingchen seized this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.
His divine sense erupted instantly, like a tidal wave, and surged into the jade unicorn.
The scene shifts, and Lu Jingchen's consciousness enters a small, independent space.
This is the mental world inside the Jade Kirin.
The space was empty; there was nothing there.
Only in the very center of the room floated a golden egg.
The surface of the golden egg is covered with strange, scale-like patterns.
It was like a gluttonous beast that never blinked, greedily absorbing the sparse spiritual energy around it.
Lu Jingchen looked puzzled and circled the golden egg twice.
Lu Jingchen muttered to himself, "What kind of egg is this?"
"And it's even actively absorbing the surrounding spiritual energy, which is a bit strange."
With a thought, Lu Jingchen instantly flipped his palm.
He took out more than ten low-grade spirit stones from his storage ring and threw them at the golden egg.
In the close-up shot, the spirit stone just approached the golden egg.
It instantly turned into dust, and all the spiritual energy inside was absorbed.
The spirit stone was originally crystal clear and full of spiritual energy.
In an instant, all life was lost, and it turned into grayish-white waste stones, which scattered all over the ground with a clatter.
The golden egg seemed to still be wanting more.
It emitted a soft buzzing sound, and the golden light on its surface intensified.
Like a little beast that hasn't had enough to eat, it's still frantically demanding spiritual energy.
Lu Jingchen narrowed his eyes, a playful smile curving his lips.
Lu Jingchen muttered to himself, "It can actually absorb spiritual energy? Interesting."
"This was like opening a blind box; I've found an amazing treasure."
He stood there, looking at the floating golden egg.
A storm raged in my heart.
It can actively absorb the spiritual energy within spirit stones; this is definitely not an ordinary object.
It might be the egg of an ancient mythical beast; this would be a huge profit!
With a thought, Lu Jingchen instantly withdrew his consciousness from the mental space.
Back in his room, he looked at the jade unicorn on the table, his eyes gleaming.
He had previously thought that the jade unicorn was just an ordinary ornament with a restriction.
I never expected there was such a treasure hidden inside.
That old bastard Jiang Zhenbang probably doesn't even realize how valuable the gift he gave away was.
Lu Jingchen picked up the jade unicorn and gently stroked its surface with his fingertips.
He secretly pondered to himself, since this golden egg could absorb spiritual energy.
If you feed it enough spirit stones, it might actually hatch.
Wouldn't I suddenly have a divine beast as a helper?
The more Lu Jingchen thought about it, the deeper his smile became.
I was just going to the banquet casually.
I never expected to stumble upon such a great opportunity; it's like a windfall.
He carefully put the jade unicorn into his storage ring.
This is a treasure; it can't be left lying around.
Later, we'll find more high-quality spirit stones and feed this golden egg properly.
Let's see what it will hatch into.
