Chapter 141: Ice Entanglement (Part 1)
It was a very ancient wooden box, looking like it hadn’t been opened for a long time.
Su Yaogeng opened the box, revealing an ice-blue ribbon with a crystal bead of the same color attached at each end.
The velvet inside the box was white, making the ice-blue ribbon appear even more chilling, with an indescribable tremor, as if it was holding some kind of power, calling out to her.
Han Jing couldn’t help but reach out her hand towards it.
With a "snap", Su Yaogeng slapped it away!
"Be careful! This is no ordinary ribbon!"
"What is it?" Han Jing asked curiously.
"It’s a weapon." Su Yaogeng wiped her hands, carefully taking the ribbon out of the box: "This ribbon is called ’Ice Entanglement’. It’s one of the top ten ranked weapons in the Spirit Flame Continent and has been hidden away for years. No one knows it’s in my possession."
Han Jing looked at Su Yaogeng in shock, then shook her hand: "It’s too valuable, Mother, you should keep it!"
Although Han Jing liked it immensely at first sight, the gift far exceeded her expectations. She still hadn’t fully comprehended what kind of mysterious place the so-called Spirit Flame Continent was, and the fact that ’Ice Entanglement’ could rank among the top ten weapons clearly indicated its power, far beyond her imagination. So, even if she temporarily possessed it, she might not be able to wield it.
"Silly girl, once I’ve given you something, how could I take it back?" Su Yaogeng smiled: "Originally, I didn’t plan to give it to you. At first, I only hoped you could be an ordinary person, marry someone who treats you well, and live a simple, happy life. But the recent events have made me realize that you only can protect yourself if you become strong enough. Jing’er, this world is actually very vast, and if you don’t want to be confined to this little place, when the time is right, leave! In one’s life, one must make it worthwhile!"
Han Jing hadn’t expected Su Yaogeng to say such words to her. Although she had such intentions long ago, she was not one to be reckless and hadn’t considered it in the short term. She thought Su Yaogeng wouldn’t support her, yet she surprisingly considered more than she did.
Han Jing suddenly felt very touched. She believed meeting Su Yaogeng in this life must be heaven’s way of compensating her for losing her family in her past life.
Having such a good mother, how blessed she was!
"Mother~ Thank you!" Han Jing blurted out emotionally.
Su Yaogeng took Han Jing’s hand, gently running a nail across her finger. Han Jing winced in pain, and a drop of blood trickled down, coincidentally falling into the Ice Entanglement.
"Close your eyes, focus, and tell it in your heart that from now on, you are its master." Su Yaogeng instructed calmly.
Han Jing dared not hesitate and quickly followed her instructions.
Then, as she opened her eyes, a miraculous scene unfolded. Her blood had completely fused with the Ice Entanglement, leaving no trace of blood behind.
Su Yaogeng tied the Ice Entanglement around Han Jing’s wrist, making a tiny knot. The ribbon instantly transformed into a beautiful bracelet with a little bow at the clasp and two shiny crystal beads hanging from it, looking exceedingly beautiful! Even more astonishing was that the ribbon, which was slightly oversized, perfectly adjusted to her wrist, as if tailor-made for her!
