At their age, Lucilla and Tate had already possessed a strength that many spirit manipulators dreamed of and spent their whole time working for. It was because their powerful families had enough financial resources and material resources to collect rare treasures. They used the wealth of their families to obtain the rarest of treasures, and with these treasures, they rapidly increased their strength.
Therefore, if one was to put aside the first two treasures and look at the third treasure alone, which was a middle-grade Dark Heaven Egg, it was still grand enough to attract the attention of almost everyone in the hall.
In sharp contrast to what everyone was feeling, Lucilla beheld the gifts with distaste, and the fact that Tate had gifted her with a middle-grade Dark Heaven Egg gave her a bad feeling. She believed that the Qi Clan must be up to something. Otherwise, they wouldn't be so generous as to give her a middle-grade Dark Heaven Egg, which could be seen as the most precious gift among all the gifts.
Lucilla immediately looked sideways at Lucas, but when she saw him shake his head in disapproval, she immediately replied with a smile, "These three treasures are too expensive. I am afraid that I can't accept them."
"Please take them, Chief Lucilla. The Qi Clan has many treasures like these. The Cao Clan is the largest clan in the Timber Deity Empire, so I was actually worried that you wouldn't take these unimportant treasures seriously," Alexander replied with a smarmy smile. His words painted him as a rich fellow, and it was obvious that he was doing this not to be generous, but to show off in front of the other guests. Although he said they were unimportant treasures, the three treasures he was giving were invaluable, especially for spirit manipulators.
"I believe in the saying that nothing is gained without merits. Even though they are unimportant treasures to you, they are more precious than the gifts sent by the others. If I take them, I'm afraid I can't live with it," Lucilla steadfastly refused.
Alexander's face darkened with malice, as he winked at Tate secretly.
"Lucilla, I am giving these three treasures to you from my own pocket. These have nothing to do with the Qi Clan," Tate said as he looked at Lucilla affectionately, but inwardly, he had seen his father's signal and knew that it was time to do as they planned.
"In that case, I can't take them! If I accept them, people will think that I am intimate with you," Lucilla responded with a serious look in her beautiful face.
"Actually, Lucilla, I came here today to announce something," Tate said as he suddenly looked at Lucilla sincerely.
"If it's a personal matter, please come another day." Lucilla's bad feeling immediately swelled into gigantic proportions, and her heart thudded anxiously when she heard what Tate had said.
"I have to announce it now," Tate insisted firmly, which made her even more anxious.
She was worried that the Qi Clan had come to play some dirty tricks to deal with the Cao Clan. If only she could ask the people to drag Tate out in front of everyone, but alas, she could do nothing.
"Why are you doing this, Tate? Today is my chief's birthday, and so many elders have come to pay their respects. Your reckless behavior is not good for you and the Qi Clan!" Lucas cut in. He also felt that the Qi Clan had attended the party for a sinister purpose.
