Chapter 39 Choosing a Ring (1/2)
Reading Settings
Ruan Tang looked in astonishment at the vast expanse of land before her that was breathtaking.
Beneath her feet was a solid concrete pier, and the salty sea breeze rushed towards her, carrying a rich, almost liquefied spiritual energy that soothed her very soul.
Looking out, rows of steel behemoths of containers are piled up like mountains, neat and uniform, stretching endlessly to the horizon.
This number... is probably in the tens of thousands.
Below the pier lies an endless, shimmering ocean.
The waves gently lapped against the rocks, making a splashing sound.
Ruan Tang subconsciously probed into the seabed, and the next second, her heart skipped a beat!
Deep within this sea area, there are actually... hundreds of spirit stone veins of varying sizes!
Sure enough, this guy must be from Fu Yu Hai!
In the cultivation world, only the legendary Penglai Island in the Fuyu Sea has such a vast sea area and such an amazing scale.
The shock of this realization lasted only a moment.
After all, her own space was filled with rare and precious materials, spiritual veins and stones, so she didn't need to envy others.
But... I'm becoming increasingly certain that this guy is from Fu Yuhai.
Ruan Tang curled her lips. Sure enough, there was a reason why this guy was more powerful than her. He was Fu Yu Hai, the overseas Penglai. How could he not have some secret techniques and immortal arts?
As she was secretly speculating, Yan Yu beside her couldn't contain himself any longer and excitedly began to show off his family's wealth.
He nimbly climbed onto a towering shipping container, opened the heavy door in a few quick movements, and then jumped down.
The man walked into the shipping container and began rummaging through it, seemingly looking for something.
Ruan Tang's attention was not on the open containers at all, nor did she pay attention to what the man was looking for inside them.
At this moment, Ruan Tang's almond-shaped eyes, sparkling with moisture, were fixed intently on the golden beach below the pier.
On the beach, a group of large, red, menacing creatures were crawling sideways towards the shore.
They were enormous, with hard shells, and looked majestic; they were species she had never seen before.
I don't know... if it tastes good.
As soon as the thought crossed her mind, Ruan Tang's mouth began to water.
She remembered the prawns that the puppet grandmother had bought in Haicheng, and the delicious, springy taste of them still lingered in her memory.
It's conceivable that anything raised in this sea, so rich in spiritual energy, must taste absolutely divine.
As Yan Yu emerged from the container carrying several long, rectangular jewelry display boxes, he saw his little girl standing on the edge of the pier, tiptoeing and gazing longingly at the sea. Her drooling expression was so intense.
Yan Yu followed her gaze, shook his head with amusement, and called out in his magnetic voice with a smile, "Tangtang, come here."
Upon hearing the man's voice, Ruan Tang immediately came running over like a cat smelling dried fish. Her almond-shaped eyes shone brightly as she grabbed his arm and excitedly asked:
"Yan Yu, Yan Yu! That big red thing crawling on the beach, can we eat it? Is it tasty?"
Yan Yu was amused by the girl's greedy expression. He put the box in his hand on the clean ground and pinched her pert nose. "You can eat it. That thing is called king crab. It tastes very delicious."
He paused, his tone full of affection, "We'll eat this at noon, there'll be plenty. Now, take a look at this and choose one you like."
As he spoke, he squatted down and opened each of the dozens of display boxes, each nearly two meters long.
In an instant, it was dazzling and glittering, almost blinding people.
The box was lined with black velvet, and neatly arranged rings were secured to it with slots.
