Chapter 810: Chapter 807: Not Pursuing Eternal Youth
Ma Xiulian immediately became anxious, "Guibao, why is your father here? Is he going to take you back?"
She clung tightly to her granddaughter’s hand, terrified that her granddaughter would be taken back to the heavens!
Chen Dazhu and Chen Jianjun were also tense and uneasy, as mere mortals, they couldn’t stop a fairy from taking Guibao away.
Helian Qiao shook her head, her voice crisp, "I won’t leave for two hundred years; I’ll stay with you."
The Chen family’s hearts, which had been in their throats, relaxed.
Helian Qiao raised the Stay-Youth Pill in her hand, urging, "Grandpa, Grandma, Dad, Mom, please eat quickly."
Hearing this, the Chen family looked at each other, none reaching out to take it.
After a moment of silence, Ma Xiulian was the first to speak, "Granny won’t eat. Granny doesn’t pursue eternal youth, just to spend a healthy and safe life with my family is enough!"
Chen Dazhu stayed silent, sucking on his dry smoking pipe, and nodded in agreement, "Grandpa feels the same way."
Chen Jianjun felt similarly.
They all knew that eternal life wasn’t necessarily a blessing.
Watching friends and loved ones die one by one before their eyes, that feeling was far from pleasant.
Slowly coming to terms with the situation, Lu Xiaofen, seeing everyone’s eyes turn to her, also shook her head after a moment’s thought.
Without her family, living to an old age all alone didn’t make sense to her either.
Little Chen Hao was still too young to understand what the adults were saying, blinking his innocent, naive eyes, looking around curiously.
Helian Qiao felt a mix of understanding and incomprehension regarding their choice, and it saddened her a bit.
The lives of humans were just too brief.
However, she wouldn’t insist, and she gave the bottle containing the Stay-Youth Pill to her grandma, "Then Granny, keep this. Whenever you want to eat it, you can."
Then she conjured up a large chest full of gold and jewels that nearly blinded onlookers with their brilliance.
"Guibao, put it back quickly!" Ma Xiulian shouted immediately. Wealth should not be flaunted.
This was too sudden!
Helian Qiao refused to take it back, saying in a soft, tender voice, "Granny, this is what my father has given you."
The Chen family’s eyes widened at the sight of the heap of gold and jewels before them, their hearts pounding like thunder.
They’d never seen so many in their lives!
They hadn’t even dared to dream of it!
The Dragon King was very thoughtful, preparing all manner of jewels, ornaments, and gold that were valuable treasures in the mortal world.
Chen Jianjun was the first to snap back to reality, advising, "Mom, you should accept it. Otherwise, Guibao will be unhappy."
"Right!" Helian Qiao agreed, firming her chubby little face.
Ma Xiulian knew her granddaughter’s temperament and after a moment’s thought, she gritted her teeth and nodded, "Alright, then."
She locked away the Stay-Youth Pill and a chest full of treasures together, hiding them under the bed inside the house.
Upon standing up and taking a few steps, she reconsidered and felt that it still wasn’t appropriate, so she crawled back to the ground, dragged the chest out again, and stored it in the warehouse.
But even that didn’t feel secure enough.
"No, I have to bury it in a hole!" she decided.
Hearing this, Helian Qiao asked in confusion, "Granny, why do you need to bury the chest?"
Ma Xiulian hugged the chest tightly, "Granny is afraid that keeping the chest at home isn’t safe, that it might get stolen."
Once she explained this, Helian Qiao belatedly remembered this concern and said in her soft, tender voice, "Granny, this chest can recognize its owner. If you drop a bit of your blood on it, the chest will recognize only you as its owner, and no one else will be able to open it or damage it. In the future, you can just pass it on to the next generation by having them do the same with their blood."
