Chapter 1281
While Ao Batian was thinking this, Ao Lingshan, who was beside him, could no longer hold back and began to unpack the package directly.
Upon hearing it was a package from Blue Star, Ao Lingshan guessed it must be for her; she couldn't let her old man snatch it away.
However, once opened, there were only two items inside. They looked very ordinary, lacking even any spiritual energy fluctuations, let alone the spatial fluctuations characteristic of storage items.
Ao Lingshan: "..."
A wasted excitement.
"Could this letter be a threat? I heard Yun Shen is very generous with his gifts. Shouldn't he be polite before resorting to force?"
Ao Lingshan took out a letter from the paper box, examined both sides, and wore a strange expression.
Her attention was entirely on the letter, so she didn't notice that her father's eyes seemed to be glued to the other item inside the box, unable to look away.
The shock in his eyes was as if he were witnessing something incredible happening right before him.
Seeing that there were no barriers on the envelope, Ao Lingshan opened it and began to read.
Gradually, Ao Lingshan found it difficult to continue reading.
Because she saw the words "Dragon Talisman token" in the letter.
As the daughter of the Ziwei Cave Heaven Master, how could she not know of the existence of the "Ziwei Dragon Talisman"?
She just didn't know what it looked like; it was said that anyone who saw it would recognize it immediately, as the aura upon it could not be mistaken.
"This little object is indeed identical to the Ziwei Dragon Talisman; it is a replica."
Ao Batian held the dragon-shaped blood-red crystal in his hand, his eyes flickering. "Lingshan, are you sure you aren't interested in the marriage alliance? Once I let the elders take a look at this little object, you won't have another chance."
Ao Lingshan, confused, asked, "Father, what do you mean?"
Ao Batian said speechlessly, "I mean, your cousins, aunts, and nieces... will definitely be more proactive than you."
Ao Lingshan: "... Is it that exaggerated? You even said this Dragon Talisman isn't real."
Ao Batian said in a deep voice, "It is definitely fake; the letter also says it was just made. However, Yun Shen might have seen a real one."
Ao Lingshan asked doubtfully, "Why?"
Ao Batian glanced at his silly daughter. "Silly child, even you don't know what the Ziwei Dragon Talisman looks like. Do you think an outsider could make a replica on the spot if they hadn't seen one?"
Ao Lingshan: "..."
Fine, she had indeed asked a silly question.
Ao Batian explained, "The elders didn't want anyone to go to the trouble of forging the Dragon Talisman to commit fraud, so they didn't even reveal the style of the Dragon Talisman. Although, even if it were revealed, no one could forge an identical one."
"Then how did you recognize it, Father?"
"Because I saw it with my own eyes back then!"
Ao Batian seemed to be pulled back to those ancient years, his face showing a look of reminiscence. "It's a coincidence, really. That day, I had just been born. The first thing I saw upon breaking my shell was the Demon-Refining Sea-Sweeping Heavenly Monarch suppressing the world's remnant beasts with a single hand. His divine might was vast and unfathomable..."
It was the first time Ao Lingshan had heard Ao Batian tell this story, and she said strangely, "Uh, Father, you shouldn't be that old, right?"
"Physical age and date of birth don't have an absolute relationship."
Ao Batian rolled his eyes. "Back then, because the Great Contention Era hadn't arrived yet, potential seeds like me entered a sealed slumber. We were only awakened after the Lord Era officially began. It wasn't just our Divine Dragon Clan; most other races were the same."
Ao Lingshan said thoughtfully, "So, Yun Shen might possess the Ziwei Dragon Talisman from the myths and legends?"
Ao Batian reminded her seriously, "What myths and legends? That is history! It is a cultural relic! I saw the Dragon Talisman being refined with my own eyes!"
Ao Lingshan muttered, "That means Yun Shen might really be the reincarnation of some powerhouse from the Primordial Era, and he likely has a connection to the Demon-Refining Sea-Sweeping Heavenly Monarch?"
"Perhaps you could be even bolder..."
Ao Batian thought to himself, is it not possible that he is the Demon-Refining Sea-Sweeping Heavenly Monarch himself?
But this would be criticizing an "elder," which was slightly rebellious. If it turned out not to be true, it would be awkward.
"In any case, Yun Shen's background is definitely not simple. Are you sure you don't want to seize this opportunity?"
