Chapter 163: 163. Surprise"Dear daughter... you mean... space?"
Hua Chengtian was so overwhelmed by the surprise that he couldn’t even speak coherently.
No wonder... no wonder Mother always made him bleed, it turns out this was the reason.
Looking at the jade artifacts on the table, his eyes instantly burned with excitement, especially the last one, wishing his daughter would bleed a bit more.
Seeing that her father understood, Hua Jing nodded, then watched as her father earnestly tried to sense it, and in no time his face turned crimson from the effort.
"Daughter, I don’t feel anything, maybe the blood isn’t enough, quickly, a few more pricks," Hua Chengtian urged, extending his finger.
Looking at the ring that absorbed his blood, not just a few pricks, even using a knife to slice, he wouldn’t blink an eye at this point.
Hua Jing also considered it, her father taking the initiative was right in line with her intentions, unhesitatingly pricking his fingers twice in succession, squeezing out two large drops to cover the ring’s surface, watched as the blood was absorbed bit by bit by several pairs of eyes, until the ring glowed brilliantly but still showed no reaction.
"Daughter, keep going," Hua Chengtian’s eyes stayed fixed on the ring with burning intensity.
Hua Jing: "..."
This little thing really absorbs a lot, it seems you can’t fully trust novels, where a drop of blood grants ownership.
Thinking this, Hua Jing pricked her father’s hand again, this time feeling a twinge of reluctance, as none of her father’s ten fingers were unscathed.
At the same time, there was eagerness building, curious about what the ring would turn into after her father sacrificed so much blood.
Then, with a few more drops of blood, as they were absorbed bit by bit, the green hue on the ring’s surface seemed to become increasingly apparent, shimmering with a lustrous glow.
As Hua Chengtian continued to offer blood, suddenly, as the last trace of blood was absorbed, the ring was enveloped in a glow, immediately followed by Hua Chengtian’s surprised and joyful shout, awakening the surprised mother and daughter.
"I felt it!"
"Really, Dad?" Hua Jing couldn’t help but shout with excitement.
"What is it, what do you feel?" Grandma Hua followed in a tense rush, asking eagerly.
"I sensed an independent space."
"Really?" Grandma Hua was so happy she couldn’t close her mouth, her first reaction was that the ancestral item really contained something of the Immortal, could this imply their ancestors had something to do with the Immortals.
No wonder their dear granddaughter had fateful connections with magic, perhaps it was inherent in the Hua family’s bloodline, Grandma Hua convinced herself perfectly.
Hua Chengtian nodded excitedly.
"Dad, how big?" This was Hua Jing’s main concern.
"About... half again as big as our three main rooms." Hua Chengtian gestured with his hands.
Hearing this, Hua Jing was pleased.
... Oh wow, it’s really not small, much bigger than expected.
For such a small ring, Hua Jing had thought if it was big enough for a room of twenty or thirty square meters, it would be great.
But half bigger than their three main rooms, their house was already quite large, at least over a hundred square meters, it was simply fantastic.
The more Hua Jing thought about it, the happier she got, with her mouth open just like Grandma Hua, truly the spitting image of grandparent and grandchild, clearly related.
"Is it that big?" Grandma Hua looked at her son in surprise.
"Dad, wait..." Leaving just this sentence, she ran out with a sprint straight towards the kitchen.
At this hour there was sure to be hot water in the kitchen.
Picking up the water ladle directly from the table, she filled it with water, "Dad, try to put it into the space, think about storing it..."
Although Hua Chengtian didn’t understand his daughter’s intention behind this, believing his daughter’s guidance couldn’t be wrong.
Following her instructions, he didn’t expect the hot water to vanish, causing Hua Chengtian to grin from ear to ear as he looked at his equally excited mother.
"Mom, did you see it’s gone?" Hua Chengtian excitedly grabbed his mother’s hand, reminiscent of when he was a child,
"Yes, yes, I saw," Grandma Hua replied excitedly, "Try something else, see if it works."
Then Hua Chengtian continued joyfully repeating the process of storing and retrieving items, till Father Hua, not seeing his son for long, came
