Several notifications in succession brought immense joy to Su Tang.
However, what she was most concerned about was the awakening of her superpower.
Rubbing her hands together, her heart trembling with indescribable excitement, she held the Roujing Pill in her hand.
The moment she saw the packaging box, Su Tang couldn’t help but ’tsk’ in admiration.
The costlier it is, the fancier, even the packaging was made of high-end, luxurious red velvet.
Just as Su Tang was about to take the pill, she heard someone calling her from outside the cave, "Su Tang, may I come in?"
Su Tang’s hand trembled, almost causing the pill to fall out.
Heart still racing, she quickly stowed the pill away into her space and casually replied, "Come in."
The visitor was Yin Zhe.
Seeing him, Su Tang asked with some surprise, "How did you get here?"
Yin Zhe looked somewhat awkward as he took out the dagger that Su Tang had given him earlier, "I’m giving this back to you, it’s very powerful, I can’t accept it."
The dagger seemed to have been deliberately cleaned, its surface free of any blood.
Upon knowing the youth’s intention, Su Tang paused and then chuckled, "Keep it, we agreed, right? You brought me to your tribe to stay for a while, and I gave you the dagger."
Yin Zhe shook his head steadfastly, "No, it’s a treasure, very powerful, you can’t just give it away."
After hearing this, Su Tang did not press the matter further.
Instead, she grew to admire the young man even more.
Sincere, righteous, without pretense.
Manly, earnest, without affectation.
It seemed as if all the virtues of the Beastmen in this Beast World could be found in this young man.
After thinking for a moment, Su Tang then said, "In that case, this dagger isn’t of much use to me since I don’t hunt. I’ll lend it to you, and from the prey you catch with it, you can share some with me. When my tribe members come to look for me, you can return it to me. How about that?"
Yin Zhe didn’t speak, apparently in thought.
After a while, he finally nodded in agreement, "Okay."
But he quickly added, "As long as I’m in the tribe, if you need any help, you can call on me."
Su Tang smiled in response, "Then it’s settled."
After sending Yin Zhe off, Su Tang happily settled back into bed.
Before taking the Roujing Pill, she quickly ran through in her mind the few acquaintances she knew.
Mei Yan had gone to find Gao Yuan, Yuehong had returned to engage in the activities of love, and there seemed to be no one else who would come looking for her.
Once confirmed, Su Tang took the Roujing Pill with a heart full of anticipation and nervousness, then closed her eyes to wait for the pain that was to come.
After all, in the TV dramas she had watched before, such Cleansing Marrow elixirs would cause unbearable pain.
But instead of pain, Su Tang... fell asleep.
...
After leaving Su Tang’s cave with the dagger, Yin Zhe didn’t go far before he encountered Yin Kuo.
Yin Zhe greeted him with a smile, "Big brother!"
Yin Kuo nodded indifferently, gesturing with his eyes at the dagger in Yin Zhe’s hand, "Hmm, what’s that you’ve got?"
Yin Zhe scratched his head and explained honestly, "Su Tang said this is called a dagger, it’s really powerful, I managed to kill two Sabertooth Beasts with it."
"Let me see."
Yin Zhe immediately scurried forward, handing over the dagger to Yin Kuo. 𝙣𝙤𝙫𝙥𝙪𝙗.𝒄𝙤𝙢
Yin Kuo’s fingertips ran across the sharp blade and instantly, a string of blood beads rolled out.
Yin Zhe, standing by, watched with his heart skipping, and couldn’t help but remind him, "Big brother, be careful, it’s very powerful."
