TFWYH – Chapter 767 Three Treasures

To be honest, even Murong Hong had not expected the National Preceptor to reveal everything so directly.

He had assumed that the Preceptor would find a private moment and let him explain things properly to Tang Wan.

But who could have guessed…

As he explained, Murong Hong shot the National Preceptor a puzzled glance.

They had traveled together day and night for several months, yet he still could not see through this man.

The National Preceptor always seemed unfathomably profound, but now it turned out that he also refused to play by ordinary rules.

After Murong Hong finished speaking, the entire hall fell into silence.

Tang Wan herself was utterly speechless.

What kind of situation was this?

Before she could fully process everything, Ling Shang addressed the Emperor:

“Our Empress deeply appreciates Your Majesty’s care for our Crown Heir. Before our departure, she entrusted me with three treasures to present to Your Majesty as a token of gratitude.”

With that, he slightly raised his hand.

Immediately, three female generals behind him stepped forward, each carrying an exquisite brocade box.

Walking to the center of the hall, Ling Shang opened the first box.

Inside lay a blue-black dagger, gleaming with a chilling light. At a glance, it was obviously no ordinary weapon.

“This,” he introduced, “is one of Feng Nation’s greatest treasures—the Heavenfall Dagger. It was forged a century ago from a meteorite that fell from the heavens. It can slice through iron as though it were mud and possesses unparalleled sharpness.”

No sooner had he finished speaking than the female general holding the box drew out the dagger and produced another iron dagger from her boot.

She lightly swept the Heavenfall Dagger across the iron blade.

A metallic screech that made everyone’s teeth ache echoed through the hall.

The Heavenfall Dagger descended effortlessly, and the iron dagger split cleanly in two—as easily as cutting tofu.

Everyone gasped.

Such a weapon actually existed in this world?

It was something they had never even heard of.

Ignoring the stunned crowd, Ling Shang opened the second box.

Inside rested a golden pill.

At first glance, it appeared entirely ordinary.

Yet his next words shook not only the officials, but even the Emperor himself.

“This is the Taihe Golden Pill. There is only one, and consuming it grants two additional years of life.”

Another wave of gasps swept through the hall.

Imperial Physician Ji Liu became so excited that he practically shouted,

“The Taihe Golden Pill? This… this is the legendary divine medicine! It truly exists?”

Hearing this, the Emperor immediately asked,

“Physician Ji, you recognize this item?”

Ji Liu stepped forward and respectfully answered,

“Your Majesty, I have never personally seen it. However, my great-great-great-grandfather traveled extensively in his youth and left behind medical texts. They mention the Taihe Golden Pill: it extends one’s lifespan by two years. It is a treasure of the world, impossible to purchase even with vast sums of gold.”

The Emperor’s eyes instantly lit up.

As he looked at that tiny pill, all that remained in his gaze was desire.

Impossible to buy with ten thousand pieces of gold?

If it truly possessed such effects, then it was a divine artifact.

Forget ten thousand gold—even a hundred thousand or a million would be beyond enough.

He was the Son of Heaven, possessing supreme power and wealth.

But he was undeniably old.

At his age, besides the imperial legacy of the Huangfu family, what could be more important?

Naturally, it was longevity itself.

While longing for the pill, the Emperor’s wariness toward Feng Nation rose several levels.

If they possessed even such miraculous treasures, their true strength could not be underestimated.

Taking in the Emperor’s expression, Ling Shang smiled faintly and opened the third box.

Inside lay a milky-white pearl.

It shimmered softly, neither quite jade nor quite a pearl, reflecting a gentle glow beneath the palace lights.

This…

If it were a luminous pearl, its brightness was insufficient.

If not, then what was it?

The Emperor promptly asked,

“National Preceptor, what is this?”

Ling Shang smiled.

“This is a Poison-Averting Pearl. Carrying it on one’s person neutralizes all poisons and renders the bearer immune to every toxin.”
