Chapter 937

Just as they were about to walk out of the Beast territory, hurried running sounds suddenly came from behind.

Turning his head to look, everyone saw the Beast King's right-hand men sprinting toward them. Seeing it was them, everyone stopped in their tracks.

Within a few breaths, the two arrived in front of Chen Ang.

Looking at Chen Ang, their eyes were filled with reluctance.

"Sect Master Chen, who knows when we will meet again after today's parting. This is a small token of our appreciation; please do not look down on it."

As they spoke, the two each handed over a small box, respectfully holding them up before Chen Ang.

Looking at the boxes in their hands, Chen Ang sighed helplessly.

"You don't need to be so polite..."

"We cannot repay your great kindness, but we must offer a small token. Sect Master Chen, please accept it!"

As they spoke, the two knelt on one knee on the ground, holding their hands high above their heads.

Seeing them perform such a grand gesture, Chen Ang hurriedly reached out to pull them up, but no matter how hard he tried, the two remained kneeling and would not rise.

"Sect Master Chen, please just accept this meager gift!"

Hearing the two's plea, Chen Ang had no choice but to take the boxes.

As soon as he took them, the two rose to their feet.

"Sect Master Chen, we are about to leave the Beast territory ahead. Since our strength has not fully recovered, we can only see you off to here."

"No need to see me off further. Your health is important; you should return."

"No, we will watch you leave. Once you are gone, we will return. You don't need to worry."

Seeing the determination in their eyes, Chen Ang did not argue further. He simply waved his hand and left with his subordinates.

As they moved forward, the two kept watching from behind. Only after the figures of Chen Ang and the others completely disappeared did they withdraw their gazes, turn around, and leave.

After they left, the Beast King, who was in the shadows, also sighed. After suppressing the reluctance in his heart, he returned to the Beast camp alone.

On the return journey, Wan Shitong kept eyeing the box at Chen Ang's waist.

After touching it with his hand, he asked curiously, "Boss, what is inside this box? Why is it so small, yet looks quite heavy?"

Looking down, Chen Ang said indifferently, "I don't know either."

Hearing his words, Wan Shitong stepped forward again.

"Boss, aren't you curious?"

"It's just two boxes, what is there to be curious about?"

"I'm not talking about the box, I'm talking about the things inside the box. Aren't you curious about the things inside at all?"

Looking at his sparkling eyes, Chen Ang pinched his brow helplessly.

"I'm not curious, but I think you are quite curious."

"Hehe, I'm just curious about what's in this small box; it looks so heavy. Boss, since we're resting now, why don't you satisfy my curiosity?"

Seeing his eyes practically glued to the box, Chen Ang had no choice but to take it off and hand it to him.

"If you're curious, open it and see."

"Boss, is it really okay?"

"Mm, it's not something that needs to be hidden from others, so why would it not be okay? Go ahead."

After receiving confirmation again, Wan Shitong carefully opened the box.

When the box opened, An Xinyi and the others also crowded around, surrounding Wan Shitong in the middle, peering into his hands with curiosity.

Seeing them like this, Chen Ang was left between laughter and tears.

It turned out that not only was Wan Shitong curious about this box, but the others were the same; it was just that their skin wasn't as thick as Wan Shitong's, so they were too embarrassed to ask.

When the box was fully opened, a gasp of amazement escaped everyone's lips.

Hearing this synchronized sound, Chen Ang raised an eyebrow.

At this moment, Wan Shitong said in surprise, "Boss, there is a pair of jade bracelets in this box!"

"Jade bracelets? What is there to be surprised about with jade bracelets?"

"These jade bracelets are full of spiritual energy; they are clearly not ordinary items. Boss, come and see what kind of treasure this is!"

After hearing his words, Chen Ang stepped forward.

When he held the bracelet in his hand, a burst of cold air suddenly surged into his body through his fingertips. After circulating through his meridians for a cycle, he felt all his fatigue swept away, and his entire body felt incredibly energetic.

Smacking his lips, Chen Ang nodded: "Ice Spring Jade Bracelets, these are indeed good things."

As soon as he said this, everyone's interest was instantly piqued.

"Boss, what are Ice Spring Jade Bracelets? Are they top-tier treasures?"

"Mm, they are top-tier."

"Then what about this one? What is this?"

Taking the bracelet from Wan Shitong's hand, Chen Ang felt it carefully again. After feeling it, he cast his gaze directly onto Qing Mei's face.

Following his gaze, everyone was a bit confused.

"Boss, why are you looking at Qing Mei? Does this bracelet have something to do with Qing Mei?"

"It has nothing to do with her; I just found the right owner for the bracelets. This bracelet can store the aura of two people simultaneously. If the bracelet is worn on Qing Mei's hand, even if we are separated by a great distance, as long as we mobilize our aura, the bracelet will link our auras together, allowing us to find each other."

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone gasped in amazement.

"Boss, are these two bracelets that powerful?"

"Mm, both bracelets are top-grade; they must have been their long-term collection. I suppose I've taken something they cherished."

Thinking of this, Chen Ang couldn't help but sigh and shake his head.

Seeing Chen Ang shake his head, Wan Shitong hurriedly said, "Boss, don't overthink it. It's not 'taking something they cherished'; this is just a token of their appreciation. You saved them twice, so they definitely wanted to give the best thank-you gift. Although this item is precious, if you don't accept it, they will probably feel even worse."

"Right, right, right. You accept it, and they will definitely be happy. Boss, don't overthink it," An Xinyi also said from the side.

After hearing their words, Chen Ang nodded.

"I know what they are thinking, otherwise I wouldn't have accepted it."

After saying this, he walked directly to Qing Mei.

Taking her soft hands, he placed the two jade bracelets on her wrists, one on the left and one on the right.

Once the jade bracelets were on, they made Qing Mei's skin look even fairer, as if she were mutton-fat jade, more finely carved than the bracelets themselves.

Turning them gently, a smile appeared on Chen Ang's face.

"The size is just right; this is practically tailor-made for you."

Looking at the two jade bracelets on her wrists, Qing Mei's expression was a bit complex.

"Chen Ang, this is too precious, I..."

Knowing what she was going to say, Chen Ang interrupted her directly and said softly, "The item is very precious, but you are worth it. You are worth any treasure in this world."

As soon as these words were spoken, Qing Mei's eyes instantly turned red.

At this moment, Chen Ang reached out toward the Dragon-Phoenix Jade Bracelets and injected his own true Qi into them.

The moment the aura dissipated, he looked into Qing Mei's eyes and said, "I have injected my aura into them. From now on, no matter where you are, I will be able to sense your presence."

Understanding what he meant, Qing Mei nodded vigorously, then injected her own aura.

"From now on, no matter where we are, we can find each other through these bracelets."

"Mm, this treasure really hit the mark for me. One can allow our auras to coexist, and the other can keep you safe. Both are what I wanted."

Hearing his words, Qing Mei was amused.

"Just a moment ago you said you were taking something they cherished, and now it's become something you wanted all along."

"Times change. I was just saying that; don't take it seriously."

As soon as he said this, everyone was amused by him.

Rubbing the goosebumps on his arms, Wan Shitong stepped forward and tugged at Chen Ang.

"Boss, stop showing off your affection in front of us. It's too mushy. Let's continue on our way."

Turning his head to look at him, Chen Ang rolled his eyes at him.

Although he didn't speak, it made Wan Shitong shrink his head.

"That... Boss, I didn't mean it like that..."

"If you didn't mean it like that, then shut your mouth. There are so many people here, are you the only one with a mouth?"
