Chapter 55: Crunch… Crunch… Crunch…

Fu Lang handed the jade pendants to Su Bao.

Her round, glistening eyes immediately lit up.

At first glance, her eyes already seemed bright and watery. But now, as they sparkled, it was as if the entire galaxy was hidden within them, dazzling and mesmerizing.

“So, what do you think? Aren’t they beautiful? It’s a shame I could only make five this time because of the tight schedule. Next time, I’ll find more high-quality jade and make you 365 pieces!”

“Whatever designs you like, I’ll have them carved! Imagine wearing a different one every single day of the year!”

This was why Fu Lang was so popular with women. He knew how to sweet-talk, wasn’t stingy with his money, and didn’t have any particularly bad habits.

Even though he always chose women as carefree as himself, after spending some time together, they would part ways amicably. But still, some women couldn’t help but fall for him—because emotions are hard to control!

The problem was, this charm had absolutely no effect on Su Bao.

Before Fu Lang could even finish his grand speech, Su Bao had already picked up one of the jade pendants and popped it into her mouth.

What the—!!!

Fu Lang was completely dumbfounded.

Why does this little great aunt put everything into her mouth?!

“Xiao Bao, this isn’t gold! You can’t tell if it’s real by biting it!” Fu Lang groaned, feeling like he was going to have a heart attack.

*Crunch!*

*Crunch!*

*Crunch!*

The crisp sound of chewing echoed through the car, like someone biting into a carrot. Every crunch sent shivers down Fu Lang’s spine.

Was she seriously chewing up the jade pendant he just gave her?!

Su Bao kept crunching away, and within moments, she had completely crushed one pendant and swallowed it.

Fu Lang stared, dumbfounded.

Wasn’t she worried about breaking her teeth?

How could she be this ruthless?

Did she even look at the intricate designs carved on the pendant?

His heart ached. He had put so much thought into those pendants, and now she had just crunched them up and swallowed them like candy!

One by one, Su Bao devoured all five jade pendants, her expression still unsatisfied. She even licked her cherry-pink lips with her little tongue, as if savoring the taste.

As an Asura Ghost, Su Bao could have chosen a dark path of cultivation, requiring her to devour ghosts and kill to advance her power.

However, creating an Asura Ghost required a virtuous body.

This meant that in her past ten lifetimes, she had been a person of great virtue, accumulating good deeds to earn her current body of purity.

This gave her an alternative path compared to other vengeful ghosts:

She could thrive on incense offerings, absorb spiritual energy, and walk the path of righteousness.

Su Bao had spent nine years trapped in a massive glass jar, yet she hadn’t fully transformed into an Asura Ghost and had no karmic debts on her hands. This was her greatest fortune.

Otherwise, she would have been doomed to a dark, destructive path with no return.

After consuming the five jade pendants and absorbing their spiritual energy, Su Bao’s entire demeanor subtly changed…

It wasn’t her appearance that shifted, but her aura.

The corners of her eyes and brows seemed to shimmer with a faint glow of spiritual energy, making her seem lighter, more radiant. She gave off an almost enchanting allure, like a budding flower that had just begun to bloom, exuding a captivating fragrance.

Su Bao carefully opened her palm, holding her breath as she focused intently on her fingertips.

It seemed as though she was guiding the energy toward her fingers…

Suddenly, a small wisp of black mist began to form at her fingertips.

The mist slowly condensed, transforming into a tiny black flower.

And then…
