Entering the wrong room, he became invincible after conquering the voluptuous aunt.

Just as Luo Yanxing was somewhat surprised and uncertain, the Luo family's butler strode out and announced in a loud voice, "Distinguished guests, Old Master Luo's birthday banquet is about to begin. Please take your seats!"

Upon hearing this, Luo Guangjun temporarily stopped, looking at Ye Feng with a hint of warning: "Consider yourself lucky! The old man's birthday banquet has begun, wishing him a long and healthy life, so you're getting a piece of the action. Next time you dare to spout nonsense, don't blame me for being ruthless!"

Ye Feng, however, remained unconcerned, a slight smile playing on his lips: "Is that so? Perhaps you'll have to beg me to save your life later, and your daughter will throw herself at me! After all, I, Ye Feng, have my eye on the Ice Charm Body! I absolutely cannot let her go!"

Soon, the birthday banquet officially began.

Surrounded by a group of people, Old Master Luo slowly walked into the banquet hall. He was in good spirits, with a ruddy complexion, clearly a man who had lived a life of luxury.

Immediately, prominent figures from the business world and martial arts masters stepped forward to greet him and congratulate Old Master Luo on his long and prosperous life.

Soon, it was time to give gifts.

Next came the gift-giving from the other guests. Some gave calligraphy and paintings by famous artists, while others gave rare antiques; each gift was quite valuable. Even Zhao Wenjie reluctantly gave a golden toad figurine, which had been auctioned at a high price in Southeast Asia, symbolizing wealth and prosperity.

However, almost no one noticed that although Old Master Luo accepted all the gifts with a smile, that smile was merely a superficial politeness. Deep in his eyes, he seemed rather dissatisfied with the gifts, and even carried a hint of barely perceptible disappointment.

Looking at the expensive gifts others had given, and then at the box containing only dried roots in her hand, Xu Wanmei felt her gift was far too meager. She hesitated, tugging at Ye Feng's arm, her voice tinged with anxiety: "Little brother Ye Feng, maybe we shouldn't give anything? Otherwise, we might become the laughingstock of everyone!"

Ye Feng smiled slightly, his tone full of confidence: "Don't be afraid, go ahead and give it away. Sister Xu, anyone who knows their stuff will praise this item I've chosen for you."

"Of course, if the entire Luo family doesn't have anyone with discerning eyes to recognize talent, then there's no need for us to stay for dinner."

"Well... okay then."

Xu Wanmei then mustered her courage, swaying her sexy big buttocks, and slowly walked towards Grandpa Luo.

The further Xu Wanmei walked, the less confident she became, feeling as if everyone around her was waiting to see her make a fool of herself.

"Oh dear, Ye Feng, you little brat, don't get me into trouble!" Xu Wanmei thought to herself.

Soon, Xu Wanmei walked up to Old Master Luo, her heart pounding, and said nervously, "Old Master Luo, I... I've also prepared a gift for you. It's not gold or silver jewelry, but please accept it."

As she spoke, Xu Wanmei carefully opened the gift box.

When the audience saw the dry, dull piece of dead wood in the gift box, they were instantly in an uproar!

"What the hell?? What is this thing?? A piece of dead wood??"

"What does Xu Wanmei mean by that? Does she mean to say that Old Master Luo is nearing his end?"

Luo Guangjun's face instantly contorted with rage. Pointing at Xu Wanmei, he shouted angrily, "Miss Xu! You're incredibly rude!! How could you send my father such a worthless and disgusting thing?? Are you here to cause trouble on purpose??"

Luo Yanxing also looked somewhat dissatisfied, and her eyes held a hint of disappointment as she looked at Xu Wanmei.

Old Master Luo's brows furrowed even more. He coughed and said in a somewhat indifferent tone, "Never mind, it's a token of my appreciation. I accept it. You may go and take a seat."

Although he said he accepted it, everyone could clearly sense Old Master Luo's displeasure.

Xu Wanmei was on the verge of tears, wishing she could disappear into the ground. She returned to Ye Feng, utterly dejected, and glared at him, angrily saying, "Ye Feng! You little rascal! You've really gotten your sister Xu into trouble this time!!"

Not far away, Zhao Wenjie was overjoyed, clutching his severed hand and laughing loudly: "Hahaha!! This idiot actually let Xu Wanmei send such a disgraceful thing! Now that's great! The Luo family will definitely do everything in their power to suppress Xu Wanmei's company! Then, I can acquire her company at a very low price!! Xu Wanmei, just wait to kneel down and lick my shoes!!!"

Xu Wanmei sat down next to Ye Feng, looking lost and dejected, her eyes slightly red.

Ye Feng, however, looked confident and not in a hurry.

Just then, a commotion suddenly broke out at the entrance of the banquet hall.

An elderly man with gray hair but a sprightly spirit walked in, surrounded by a crowd.

Luo Guangjun and Luo Yanxing immediately looked on with awe.

Grandpa Luo was overjoyed. He quickly stepped forward, grasped the old man's hand tightly, and said excitedly, "Old classmate! I am truly honored that you could come to see me!!"

"Haha! We're all old comrades, why bring this up?!"

The old man, Shuang, was none other than Qin Qiankun, a classmate of Old Master Luo.

He was once a leading figure in the medical field, and although he has now retired, he still enjoys immense respect in Jiangcheng.

However, Qin Qiankun's smile had barely faded when he suddenly sniffed and a strange expression appeared on his face.

"This taste!!!"

"Old Qin, what's wrong?" Old Master Luo asked with a curious look.

Qin Qiankun, however, was filled with fanaticism and completely ignored Old Master Luo, searching the banquet hall on his own.

When his gaze fell upon the piece of dead wood carelessly tossed aside next to a dog in the corner of the banquet hall—

Qin Qiankun's expression changed drastically in an instant!

He lunged forward, grabbed the piece of dead wood, his whole being a mixture of surprise and rage, his voice trembling: "Who threw this away?!?! Such a good thing, and you treated it like trash, throwing it next to the dog?!"

Luo Guangjun instinctively replied, "I threw it, so what, Old Qin? It's just a piece of dead wood, what's the big deal?"

"You little rascal!!"

Qin Qiankun trembled violently, enraged beyond measure. Pointing at Luo Guangjun's nose, he cursed, "What a waste!! Absolutely a waste of talent!!!"

"Do you know what this is?! This is a blood elf gen, a rare find even once in a millennium!!"

"When prepared using a special method, consuming this product can not only increase lifespan by at least five years!! It can even cure dozens of rare and difficult-to-treat diseases!! This is a truly priceless treasure, a priceless gem that even spending a fortune might not be enough to buy!!"

Qin Qiankun's voice boomed like thunder in everyone's ears.

The crowd erupted in uproar!

Qin Qiankun took a deep breath, his gaze fixed on the Blood Elf Root in his hand, and roared almost maniacally, "Tell me who sent this treasure! I'll offer ten billion!! I'll buy it!!!"
