Chapter 404: Chapter 404 Jiang Jingze’s Blood

Although she had to refine two pieces of jade, Yue Qingqing had never really learned artifact refining before.

She also didn’t have enough materials on hand to support her learning on the fly.

Therefore, Yue Qingqing only planned to use her own Spiritual Energy to quickly nurture the jade, so that when danger arose, the Spiritual Energy could sense it in time.

Sitting on the bed, Yue Qingqing summoned her whole body’s Spiritual Energy, enveloping the Safety Pendant in it.

As the Spiritual Energy continuously washed over it, the impurities within the Safety Pendant were expelled bit by bit, making the piece of jade appear even more lustrous and translucent than before.

Yue Qingqing’s eyes concentrated as the trickle of Spiritual Energy suddenly turned into a surging Jiang Hai, fiercely pouring into the Safety Pendant.

In an instant, a dazzling light radiated from the surface of the jade, causing Yue Qingqing’s pupils to contract and her to involuntarily squint.

At the peak of the radiance, Yue Qingqing steadily controlled the Spiritual Energy, layer by layer she drew it back.

A moment later.

The Safety Pendant hung in the air, gently swaying, as a bead of sweat silently fell from Yue Qingqing’s nose.

"Done."

She placed the jade in her palm.

On the outside it seemed not much had changed, but in hand, it was even more silky-smooth, with a faint warm light flowing within it.

Yue Qingqing sensed the Spiritual Energy inside moving as if it formed a small world of its own and let out a breath of relief.

Every limb felt exhausted, and the Spiritual Energy within her body had been completely drained.

The remaining Jade Token would have to wait until tomorrow, after she had recovered, to be refined.

Yue Qingqing lay on the bed, twisting the red string around her index finger, suspending the Safety Pendant in the air.

It swayed gently, refracting scattered beams of light with the help of the light from the window.

Yue Qingqing couldn’t help but swallow, as if a string of braised pork trotters were hanging in front of her.

The next day, after she had also refined her senior brother’s Jade Token, Jiang Jingze called.

Yue Qingqing happily took the Safety Pendant with her to go mooch a meal.

In the private room, Jiang Jingze froze, his gaze fixed on the jade in Yue Qingqing’s palm.

"This is for me?"

Yue Qingqing was slightly embarrassed, "It’s not wrapped, and it might look a bit plain, but..."

"I really like it," Jiang Jingze looked at Yue Qingqing, his usually cold eyes seemed to shimmer with a layer of light, and he repeated, "I really, really like it."

Yue Qingqing touched her nose, feeling a bit shy, "As long as you like it. Try putting it on."

Jiang Jingze took it and wore the red string around his neck, against his chest.

Instead of the cool touch he had imagined, there was a hint of warmth.

Jiang Jingze’s eyes flickered, but he didn’t ask further.

Qingqing had many secrets, like a treasure trove.

But he didn’t want to delve into them, only wishing to keep her by his side, admiring her as if she were the most beautiful treasure in the world, forever watching.

"Right! After you go home, you can also prick your finger with a needle and smear a bit of blood on the jade," Yue Qingqing suggested like a teenage girl overly enamored with martial arts novels, giving Jiang Jingze advice.

It was mainly to more conveniently sense Jiang Jingze’s condition.

This way, if anything was amiss with Jiang Jingze, Yue Qingqing would detect it immediately.

Without a second word, Jiang Jingze grabbed the table knife and made a cut on his fingertip.

Blood immediately began to flow from the wound.

Yue Qingqing: "..." There really was no need to hurry like that.

Just as Jiang Jingze smeared the blood on the Safety Pendant, the Spiritual Energy in the air started to stir.

Yue Qingqing’s eyes widened in shock.

Indeed, this would cause a fluctuation in the Spiritual Energy, but this commotion seemed a bit too excessive.

Before Yue Qingqing could react, the Safety Pendant suddenly flickered, and the surrounding Spiritual Energy rushed in frantically.

It forcibly drained all the Spiritual Energy in the room, turning it almost into a non-traditional vacuum.

Even more Spiritual Energy scrambled in through a crack in the window of the private room, clinging to the Safety Pendant as if it were free, eager to merge with the blood on it, persistently intertwining.
