Ye Chen actually wants to give the bracelet he bought with thirteen medium-grade spirit stones to me?

  Sun Ruoxin, who had been indifferent towards Ye Chen, was completely stunned.

  As for Sun Ye, who was still regretting not taking the bracelet to sell it to Ye Chen for a profit, he was also shocked.

  They had heard of Ye Chen's generosity towards female cultivators, but they never imagined he would be this generous.

  A gift worth over a dozen medium-grade spirit stones, even an inner disciple of the Qingyun Sect wouldn't just give it away like that.

  And yet, Ye Chen did?

  Isn't this too wasteful?

  Sun Ruoxin hesitated for a moment.

  Of course, she liked the bracelet. It could enhance her cultivation speed and looked beautiful. Most importantly, it was expensive.

  But receiving such a valuable gift for no reason made Sun Ruoxin uneasy.

  Sun Ye, however, reacted quickly. He immediately took the bracelet from Ye Chen and pced it on Sun Ruoxin's fair wrist, saying, "Ye Chen, you're so thoughtful..."

  "My daughter saw this bracelet the other day and really liked it, but I couldn't bring myself to buy it for her."

  "I didn't expect you to just give it to her."

  "I thank you on behalf of my daughter!"

  Sun Ruoxin looked at her father's expression and felt a bit helpless. However, she couldn't find the words to refuse, especially since she did like the bracelet.

  After a moment's hesitation, Sun Ruoxin slightly bowed and thanked him, "I really like this gift, thank you, junior brother!"

  Hearing this, Ye Chen smiled. Just a moment ago, she wasn't even acknowledging the senior and junior titles, and now she directly called him junior brother.

  Money can indeed make the world go round, a timeless truth that holds even in the cultivation world.

  But Ye Chen's thoughts weren't on this. They were on the system notification in his mind.

  "Gift successfully given!"

  "The gift is a Jade Essence Bracelet."

  "Processing feedback..."

  "Fifteen times feedback..."

  "It has been detected that the gift given by the host is extremely important to the recipient and exceeds their expectations, causing a significant emotional fluctuation, triggering a critical reward!"

  "Reward: Stone Bell Jade Essence Bed."

  "Stone Bell Jade Essence Bed: Crafted from Stone Bell Jade Essence associated with spirit veins, it has the effect of absorbing, purifying, and refining spiritual energy, significantly enhancing cultivation speed..."

  "The reward has been pced in the host's storage space."

  Stone Bell Jade Essence Bed?

  Reading the description, Ye Chen's eyes widened. Although the specific effects weren't detailed, just the materials used indicated extraordinary results.

  This made Ye Chen clench his fists in excitement. Fifteen times the reward plus a critical hit, truly impressive.

  However, it was time for css. Ye Chen suppressed his eager feelings and exchanged a few polite words with Sun Ruoxin before starting the lesson.

  Perhaps because his daughter received such a precious gift, Sun Ye was in high spirits while teaching today. Meanwhile, Sun Ruoxin occasionally gnced at Ye Chen during her talisman crafting, her eyes filled with curiosity.

  ...

  The css ended quickly. Ye Chen had no intention of staying longer and took his leave.

  After Ye Chen left, Sun Ruoxin examined the bracelet on her wrist and frowned, "Dad, why do you think he gave me such an expensive magic artifact?"

  Sun Ruoxin had already experienced the bracelet's effects during css. It could indeed automatically purify and refine spiritual energy, and wearing it made her mind clearer. It was truly an exceptional auxiliary magic artifact.

  Why would Ye Chen give such a valuable gift to someone he had never met before instead of keeping it for himself?

  Hearing this, Sun Ye replied nonchantly, "Isn't it just a meeting gift for you? I remember mentioning to him that you would be attending csses together, and he said he would prepare a gift. Maybe he's trying to win my favor to teach him better?"

  Sun Ruoxin pursed her lips, "Ye Chen only pays one medium-grade spirit stone a month to learn talisman crafting from you, Dad. If there wasn't another reason, why would he give a gift worth thirteen medium-grade spirit stones? That's a whole year's tuition!"

  Hearing this, Sun Ye also sensed something was off. But the gift was indeed given. Why?

  Sun Ruoxin confidently smiled, "Ye Chen must have seen me before!"

  "He even came to learn talisman crafting from you just to have a chance to meet me."

  "Upon learning we would be in the same css, he didn't hesitate to spend a fortune on a gift to win my favor!"

  Sun Ye's mouth twitched at first...

  No normal person would do such a thing for a woman, right? What was his daughter thinking?

  But recalling the rumors about Ye Chen, Sun Ye suddenly found it pusible. Ye Chen was known to give magic artifacts, storage bags, and spells to female cultivators. If he had seen his daughter before, giving her a bracelet seemed reasonable.

  However, after understanding this, Sun Ye's face turned angry, "That little brat dares to have designs on my daughter..."

  "I really thought he wanted to learn talisman crafting."

  Sun Ye cherished his daughter dearly. Sun Ruoxin gently shook the bracelet, producing a pleasant sound. Seeing her father angry, a mischievous smile appeared on her pretty face, "Dad, if you're so mad, why not stop teaching him?"

  Hearing this, Sun Ye's mouth twitched again. One medium-grade spirit stone a month wasn't a small amount. Sun Ye was a bit reluctant.

  So, after a moment's hesitation, Sun Ye said, "Maybe we should continue the lessons. The young man doesn't seem to have any bad intentions."

  "But don't be swayed by these little favors."

  "Although he has some talent in talisman crafting, giving gifts to women like this has no future."

  "And I've heard he's involved with two female cultivators, always giving them gifts."

  "Now he's even interested in you, which means he's a phinderer!"

  "Such a person is not a suitable partner."

  Sun Ye wanted to earn money but also feared his daughter might fall for Ye Chen's charms, so he advised her.

  Hearing this, Sun Ruoxin ughed like a silver bell, "Dad, you're overthinking..."

  "In a couple of years, I'll be a disciple of the Qingyun Sect and aim to reach Foundation Establishment."

  "How could I be interested in someone from a small family with no future?"

  "If he wants to give gifts, let him. It's his choice, not mine."

  "Receiving gifts doesn't mean anything."

  "I won't do anything foolish for a few gifts."

  Hearing this, Sun Ye smiled with satisfaction. As expected of his daughter, she was smart. As long as she wasn't swayed, the more Ye Chen gave, the better.

  Sun Ye even started contempting whether to give Ye Chen some hints, like mentioning the new treasures at Qingyun Workshop or what his daughter liked, to encourage Ye Chen to give more.

  Ye Chen's first gift was worth thirteen medium-grade spirit stones, showing his affection for his daughter. If this kid dared to have designs on his daughter, then squeezing him dry seemed perfectly reasonable!
