Venerable Cranesong mused... As he did, he casually took what his young disciple handed him.
"Since it's a token of sincerity from my disciple's granddaughter, I won't…"
Before he could utter the word 'reject,' his expression abruptly changed.
"Where did this come from?"
His voice even trembled.
Ji Shang sensed something was amiss. He had planned to gift his Master about ten or so of the tiny black balls, but immediately reduced the number to just three or five.
"Disciple just said, this was given by my granddaughter. She said it was spat out by her pet!"
"What did you say?"
Venerable Cranesong completely lost his composure and hurriedly pressed, "What kind of pet does she have? What's its name?"
Upon hearing this, Ji Shang's eyes darted around for a moment before he spoke. He didn't immediately say what Xiaosuisui's pet was, but instead asked, "Master! Is there something amiss with this item?"
