"Look, isn't that … isn't that Yun Luofeng's bodyguard? “
Suddenly, a cry of surprise rang out.
Once everyone's eyes had shifted away from the betrothal gifts, they landed on the man who had just stepped into the hall.
Under the moonlight, the man's black robes fluttered in the wind, making him look noble and domineering.
Ever since he had entered the great hall, his gaze had been fixed on Yun Luofeng and had not left him at all. His handsome face was no longer as cold as it used to be. The corners of his cold and stiff lips were slightly curled into a shallow smile.
It was fine when the man did not smile, but when he did, it was a feast for the eyes.
Even if his smile was so shallow that it could barely be seen …
The crowd had never seen a man smile so mesmerizing. It was as if a hand was fiercely scratching their hearts, making them feel unbearably itchy.
"Master, the betrothal gifts have been placed down."
After Qin Yuan had placed down the betrothal gifts, he walked in front of Yun Xiao and cupped his fists as he spoke.
Master?
This form of address caused everyone who was still in a state of shock to wake up. Their expressions were as if they had just eaten feces.
Yun Luofeng's personal bodyguard was the legendary Ghost Emperor?
Impossible! Absolutely impossible!
If he was the Ghost Emperor, why would he come to the Yun family to become a bodyguard?
Furthermore, the Yun family had not been powerful enough back then …
"Open the betrothal gifts."
Yun Xiao slightly raised the corners of her lips as she spoke.
"Yes, Master!"
Hearing this, the bodyguards hurriedly put down their burdens and opened the boxes. In an instant, the countless medicinal ingredients within the boxes fell into the eyes of the guests …
In particular, there was a rather eye-catching sapling among the medicinal ingredients.
"Tsk, I thought that the Ghost Emperor's betrothal gifts would be very precious. At the very least, they would be expensive jewels! I never thought that it would only be a pile of medicinal ingredients! "
"Perhaps he did not have enough medicinal ingredients, so he brought a sapling to make up the numbers! I think that Lady Yun does not hold his heart at all. Otherwise, he would not have used these betrothal gifts to dupe her. "
While the crowd was filled with disdain, they did not notice that Elder Rong, who had been as steady as a mountain, had suddenly stood up and looked in shock at the medicinal ingredients in the boxes …
"Impossible! This is impossible! "Elder Rong shook his head firmly, his face full of disbelief.
Elder Ning looked at Elder Rong in astonishment. "What is impossible? What happened to you? "
At the same time, the rest of the people were also attracted by Elder Rong's words, and they all turned to look at him.
Elder Rong's face was filled with excitement. "These medicinal herbs … these medicinal herbs are all rare medicinal herbs that are hard to come by in a hundred years! Oh, that's not right, there are even thousand-year-old medicinal herbs! Any one of these medicinal herbs would fetch a sky-high price in an auction! "
What?
Elder Rong's words stunned everyone.
Because this old man was an elder of the Medical Pavilion, no one doubted a single word that he had said …
Elder Rong took a deep breath to suppress the shock in his heart. "As for those medicinal herbs that have matured for thousands of years, I can tell you that they are priceless!"
Demand but no supply?
These four words were like a clap of thunder, causing those who had mocked him to lower their heads in shame.
Perhaps, even if they were to go bankrupt, they still wouldn't be able to afford a single stalk of medicinal herb here …
However, the Ghost Emperor had actually brought a hundred boxes over?
"A hundred boxes, these are a hundred boxes of rare medicinal herbs." Elder Rong looked at Yun Luofeng with envy and jealousy. His tone was a little sour. "Especially the thousand-year-old medicinal herbs. Even our Medical Pavilion only has a few stalks, but the Ghost Emperor had brought a hundred boxes over! In every box, there are more than ten thousand-year-old medicinal herbs! "
