Although they may sound rather philistine, the Star Territory Chief, who has control over the entire market trend and the overall situation in the world, is the first person they want to establish relationships with.

One gift after another was delivered to Jing Li.

Jing Li lowered his eyes and turned the beads in his hand.

"...Everyone, today is just a simple gathering, there is no need to give gifts, and I didn't bring enough gifts, so I can't return gifts, so..."

She had no choice but to restrain her gentle smile: "It's better to take it back. It won't be too late to give it away when relatives come around during the New Year."

When the Star Chief spoke, the gift giver stopped.

In this case, they secretly send it behind the scenes.

Jing Li knew that this was their habit for many years and could not stop it, so he could only choose the ones that were not too expensive to accept.

"Master Xingyu, long time no see."

The woman in the purple backless dress came closer, held up the wine glass, saluted the mirror, and then drank it in one gulp.

The woman has a gorgeous face, and her upturned emerald eyes are like a gorgeous poisonous snake, and ordinary people will be involuntarily attracted just by looking at her.

Jing Li pondered for a moment, then raised his glass and took a sip.

The woman's flamboyant dress was incompatible with this place, and everyone looked at her curiously.

After noticing the traces of the green chi on the side of the woman's waist, those lustful looks between men and women instantly faded away.

It is a pattern that the Viscount can use.

Yan Zhou obviously noticed this.

Lords from all walks of life gathered together today...

Can we only say that it is indeed a banquet hosted by the Star Territory Chief?Even the quality of the people attending the banquet is not comparable to that of ordinary banquets.

Jing Li took her away from the banquet center.

When he reached the corner, Jing Li's eyes were unfathomable and he said slowly:

"You will be in trouble in the future...Morrigan."

Morrigan's expression suddenly changed, she tried hard to suppress the trembling in her heart, and forced out a wry smile: "As expected... I can't hide anything from you."

She took a deep breath, as if she had made a huge decision.

"Is it convenient to chat in private?"

……

"Yan Zhou."

Song Yi came over with a wooden box. She looked at Yan Zhou and said apologetically:

"Sister, I originally wanted to see you alone later, but I have something to do...so I asked me to give you this thing."

"She said, this is very useful to you, be sure to go back and open it again."

Yan Zhou took the wooden box, nodded and smiled: "The Star Territory Chief has always been busy with things. My mother is an example. I understand this."

Song Yi smiled, and then took the place of her sister to entertain the other guests.

Until the end of the banquet, Jing Li never appeared again.

Yan Zhou looked at the position where the Star Territory Chief had left, thoughtfully.

She was very curious about the bloodline talent of this star field leader.

Back in the dormitory, Yan Zhou took a shower and sat cross-legged on the bed.

He picked up the wooden box and rubbed it carefully.

The carvings on it are exquisite, and judging from the certain degree of corrosion on the wood carvings, it seems to have been there for some time.

The wooden box was locked with a metal buckle. Yan Zhou observed it for a while and quickly found a way to press it upward——

"click"

The wooden box was opened, and at that moment, a dazzling golden light illuminated the room as bright as day.

Yan Zhou's expression changed, and he immediately used spiritual energy to cast a spiritual shield, locking the golden light into it.

The light is too bright and easily attracts others' attention.

Slowly opening the wooden box, Yan Zhou's pupils suddenly shrank.

What caught her eye...if she read it correctly.It's a piece of dragon scale.

After calming down, Yan Zhou picked up the dragon scale and inspected it carefully. After confirming that it was a genuine dragon scale, she fell into a long silence.

Let’s not talk about why there are dragon scales here, a treasure that is extremely rare even in the world of cultivation. Even the appearance of the dragon scales is absolutely extraordinary.

After thinking for a long time, the only possibility that came to her mind was that this thing should have been brought back from the secret realm.

It was similar to the dragon balls she absorbed in the secret realm.

Oh no, this thing is much higher level than the one in the secret realm.

Yan Zhou didn't know much about the dragon race. He only knew that in the world of cultivation, dragons were the only existence besides the Phoenix clan that could rival Dao Lord without ascending.

The powerful physical body that is invulnerable to water and fire coupled with the immortal soul... is almost invulnerable.

Of course, this is an innate condition that only purebloods have. Most dragons still need to practice like other demons.

Spiritual threads flowed from the fingertips, and a transparent dragon claw took away the golden dragon scales in the wooden box with lightning speed.

Yan Zhou:......

She was stunned for a moment, then quickly stopped, pressed the dragon's claw on the bed, and used a trace of spiritual pressure to pull out the scales in the dragon's claw.

Xiaolong poked his head out and let out an aggrieved "ouch".

Yan Zhou's eyebrows darkened slightly.

The movements of her spiritual body represent, to some extent, her inner desires.

and so……

Yan Zhou put the dragon scale back into the wooden box and closed it.

Her body told her she needed this.

"Such a precious thing..."

Yan Zhou raised his head and sighed softly.

Coupled with the past life and the present, this dragon scale that condenses the huge original power of the dragon clan can be said to be one of the most precious gifts she has received.

The transparent dragon claws poked out again, causing ripples in the air.

Yan Zhou twitched his eyes and stuffed the dragon claw back into his mind.

So restless!She has no composure at all!

Moreover, the energy contained in this thing was not something she could accept as a foundation builder. She didn't want to explode and die.

Morrigan was not in a hurry to leave, and finished talking about the old proposal with Jing Li:
"Your garden is very nice. Would you mind if your old classmate stays here temporarily for a night?"

Jing Li slowly sipped the tea and smiled after hearing this: "Of course I don't mind. You can stay as long as you want."

Morrigan was speechless and turned around and said: "After all, Star Territory has grown up, why is it still so good-tempered? What if one of my subordinates kicks the nose and gets in trouble..."

"will not."

Jing Li shook his head, made a cup of tea and put it on the opposite side.

"I will never choose someone who is disloyal from the beginning."

Morrigan raised her eyebrows: "Yes, I almost forgot, no one can escape your eyes."

She turned her head and looked out the window. The lights on the lake reflected the lotus flowers particularly beautifully.

In order to keep lotuses blooming in the garden all year round, the first-generation star field director specifically consulted an academician from the institute to find out the most suitable environment and nutrient solution for the growth of lotus.

Morrigan smelled the light fragrance of lotus in the air, and her eyebrows softened: "When you were still in Feiqi, your favorite place to go was Luhua Pond. There are also large lotus flowers there."

As she spoke, her voice was low: "Actually, I didn't like you very much at first."

"Your innate ability can see the ugliness of human nature and its future direction. People always hate things that are absolutely true, and I am no exception."

Jing Li stopped drinking tea and said helplessly: "Morrigan, you are not suitable for sensationalism, so just say it directly."

Morrigan: ...

You see, she was indeed right.

After Jing Li's interruption, Morrigan also lost the intention to rebuild the relationship between classmates with her.
