CHAPTER 941 THE THREE-COLOR GANODERMA
"Mr. Rookie, I didn't expect you to be so prepared for this. But I hope you can take out some decent
engagement presents. You will make a fool of yourself if you don't!" Alexander ridiculed. At that
moment, he wanted Rocky to take the hint that if his gifts were nothing but ordinary, then it would be
better for him not to take them out than be ridiculed by people.
Meanwhile, Tate had just calmed down when he gloomily said, "You could have at least offered
something on par with me. Do you really think you are that qualified to take Lucilla's hand in marriage
with your gifts? I doubt that. Even if Lucilla finally agrees to marry you, I will never admit defeat. I know
that I can offer her better than what you are offering her."
"Mr. Tate, this is my private affair. And I believe that this has nothing to do with you. Why should I care if
you approve or not..." Lucilla smiled indifferently. Now, she finally had the chance to fight back and
make them feel her wrath. In fact, Tate even twisted the facts and implied that she was a slut. If it
weren't for Rocky appearing in just the right time and taking a hands-on approach to clear up the
misunderstanding, then she would still be in a dilemma up until now. And if that happened, then she
would be coerced by her elder uncles, Tod and Freddy, to resign from her position as the chief of the
Cao Clan.
"Lucilla, do you want to give it a try? If I can't get you, then surely, no one else can." At that moment,
Tate's eyes narrowed and looked like the possessive man that he was.
On the other hand, everyone who was there was satisfied to see this act of jealousy. It was surprising
enough that two of the strongest clans of the Timber Deity Empire would fight this way, but what was
even more unexpected was Rocky's presence.
However, Rocky smiled calmly and turned to ask, "So what did Mr. Tate prepare for this proposal?
What did you get for Lucilla?"
Hearing this, Tate immediately winked at the three servants who stood beside him. Soon after, the
presents were shown to the people.
"Wow, Mr. Tate, you are so generous. You even sent out the Dark Heaven Egg with the medium
quality," Rocky said in surprise as he glanced at the gifts in awe.
"Humph!" Tate heard what Rocky had said and thought that Rocky must feel so uncomfortable now that
he knew how big Tate's gifts were. After all, although Rocky was, without a doubt, a strong beast
master and a good spirit manipulator, it was still impossible for Rocky to get a hold of a great treasure.
Without a rich family background, he knew that Rocky could never afford a treasure, such as a medium
grade Dark Heaven Egg. Therefore, at that moment, Tate was sure that he could defeat Rocky in this
game.
"Hey, are you sure about this? If not, then we can stall. It can buy us time and figure out a way..."
Lucilla whispered to Rocky upon seeing Tate's gifts. With the Cao Clan's power, it was no doubt that
they must have collected some wonderful treasures. Even though they could not pull off something as
grand as the medium grade Dark Heaven Egg, they could most surely take out something as valuable
as the rest two presents that Tate had shown them. But at that moment, it was impossible for Lucilla to
take anything away from their storehouse so quickly. Moreover, she might get suspected for doing so.
"Now that Mr. Tate has presented three kinds of presents, I'll show three gifts, too." But Rocky shook
his head and smiled upon hearing Lucilla's words. Soon after, he took his silk bag and took out his
presents.
"Now, how about these three things?" Rocky spread out his hand, and the objects in his hand C0ntent © 2024 (N/ô)velDrama.Org.
immediately emitted a strong dark luster, which stunned everyone around him.
"Here... The medium grade Dark Heaven Egg..."
"Not just one, but three of them? Are you serious?"
"I never thought he could take out three medium grade Dark Heaven Eggs just like that..."
"How is that even possible? Acquiring one of the medium grade Dark Heaven Egg is very rare, let
alone three at a time? What is he up to, and how is he able to get them?"
Meanwhile, Rocky's gifts sparked an uproar in the entire Magnificent Hall. Seeing that he had taken out
three of the medium grade Dark Heaven Eggs, everyone stared at him as if he were a monster.
On the other hand, some of the powerful people in the hall could immediately feel the rich spiritual
power of the eggs, which meant that no one could possibly doubt their authenticity.
In fact, even Lucas, who had seen the medium grade Dark Heaven Egg and the top grade Dark
Heaven Egg, could not believe that Rocky was able to pull them out even if he had no support from a
very powerful family.
Lucilla was also stunned by Rocky's display of gifts. She didn't expect Rocky to be so calm despite
taking out three medium grade Dark Heaven Eggs in one go. In fact, she didn't need to ask how he got
them because seeing the courage and charm from him was enough to make her feel moved by his
gesture.
Tate, on the other hand, could not believe how Rocky casually took out such powerful gifts from his bag
as if it were a normal thing to give as a present.
"Humph, aren't they just three medium grade Dark Heaven Eggs?" With a cold snort, Tate knew that if
they kept competing like this, the Qi Clan would be humiliated and bring disgrace on themselves. To
save himself, he immediately said in a regal manner, "Chief Lucilla, since we are here to have your
hand in marriage, we can't stop with only giving you three gifts, right? You deserve more than that. In
fact, I have one more..." As soon as he spoke, he stretched out his hand and turned it over. In an
instant, a rare treasure appeared in his palm that shone with three colored lights and spiritual power
gathering in his palm. Looking at it closely, people could tell that it looked like a lucid ganoderma.
After seeing the treasure in his hand, everyone around could not help but gasp in astonishment.
"Is it the Three-color Ganoderma produced by the extremely rare species? Is this the one by the Three-
color Spiritual Turtle? However, I think that it's just a low-grade one..." Lucas, who was well-informed,
said while his expression dropped from wonder to plain disinterest.
Once again, after hearing what it was, the people present in the hall instantly whispered and
exchanged thoughts about the matter.
Just like the Dark Heaven Insect, the Three-color Spiritual Turtle was also a spirit-manipulated beast
that could produce rare treasures. However, the star level of the Three-color Spiritual Turtle could
reach level five, so the treasures they were able to produce were naturally better than the Dark Heaven
Eggs produced by the Dark Heaven Insect. In fact, a low-grade Three-color Ganoderma was
comparable with a high-grade Dark Heaven Egg.
Therefore, Tate had paid a fortune to get and offer the low-grade Three-color Ganoderma for his
proposal. After all, a low-grade Three-color Ganoderma was a rare treasure for spirit manipulators
above the Supernal Stage. Moreover, the chance of obtaining a Three-color Ganoderma was less than
that of getting a high-grade Dark Heaven Egg. Therefore, everyone's attention was taken away from
Rocky's eggs as soon as they had a glimpse of this very rare Three-color Ganoderma.
But of course, the reason why Tate was able to show his ace card was to keep up with the audience's
favor and attention. Needless to say, he couldn't let a nobody, such as Rocky, suppress the Qi Clan.
Meanwhile, after seeing Tate pull out the impressive Three-color Ganoderma, Lucilla still couldn't help
but have her eyes fixed on Rocky. However, at that point, she seemed to have already made up her
mind. Even though she would never agree to the Qi Clan's proposal, she also knew that she would not
agree to Rocky's, because she knew that Rocky was only helping her, and not sincere in marrying her.
If she agreed, then it would give Rocky a dilemma. Therefore, it was not a bad thing that Tate had
taken out such an impressive present. In this way, Lucilla had an excuse to turn both of them down.
