Chapter 1633: Bodhi Bone
Lillian seemed to sense Selena's anger, but she just smiled lightly and asked, "Selena, how does
Stanley compare to these three treasures for you?"
Selena was Lillian's opponent. How could she be so careless?
To Selena, Stanley was like Robert to Lillian.
These so-called treasures were nothing more than material possessions to Lillian.
What she truly wanted was not these things.
Selena's eyes showed a hint of coldness as she laughed and said, "A regicide executioner... how can
he compare with Stanley?"
Lillian lowered her gaze and remained silent.
Bianca looked at Selena's unpleasant expression and thought that she was afraid. She regained her
confidence and said, "Miss Turner, don't just sit there daydreaming. It's your turn now."
As Selena pondered what could surpass the Bodhi Bone in front of her, someone suddenly burst into
the room carrying a long box. He respectfully placed it on the table in front of Selena and said, "Miss
Turner, my young master has a gift for you."
Winnie saw the box and her heart skipped a beat. She seemed like she wanted to say something but Content is property © NôvelDrama.Org.
ultimately stayed silent in place.
Selena focused on the box before her - it had deep red carvings that gave off an air of solemnity.
She lifted the lid gently with one hand revealing a golden light pouring out from inside - illuminating
everything around them instantly.
Even though they hadn't seen anything yet, everyone who saw the beam of light felt their hearts skip a
beat.
Alisha looked at the light in surprise and suddenly thought of something. She turned to Winnie and
asked, "What is this?"
Winnie clenched her fingers and whispered, "The Poole family is in charge now. Everything is up to my
brother. Besides..."
She glanced at Selena before continuing, "The Central City has been too oppressive. The Poole family
can't just stand by and watch H Country lose face on its own turf."
Alisha's expression was complicated as she ultimately turned away without saying anything.
Bianca had been confident before but now she looked a bit nervous. Could it be that this woman really
had something more valuable than the Bodhi Bone?
Under everyone's gaze, Selena gently opened the box.
Inside the yellow inner box were various scriptures engraved all over it. In the center lay a one-foot-
long stick-shaped object.
It was entirely golden with seven differently colored gems embedded in an exquisite manner along its
edges.
It looked like a weapon but upon closer inspection it wasn't quite so simple.
Everything fell silent as even Lillian who had been carefree until then focused her attention on it slightly.
Even if they didn't recognize what this thing was, just looking at it made them feel an unprecedented
sense of solemnity and sanctity that made them afraid to disrespect it in any way possible.
Selena lifted her hand and took out the object from inside the box causing its radiance to surge greatly
while making Bodhi Bone inside its white box dim down considerably for an instant.
Bianca's face turned pale. "It's impossible... it's just a golden accessory, at best it looks good. How
could it compare to the 'Bodhi Bone'?"
Winnie glanced at her with a hint of disdain in her eyes and said firmly, "The Vajra Staff is the most
precious treasure of Buddhism and can command all monks in the world!"
Selena turned to look at Winnie and lightly tapped the Vajra Staff with her slender white fingers.
A clear and strange sound wave emanated from the staff, causing an instant tremor that seemed to
shake the entire city of the capital.
The "Bodhi Bone" inside the white box seemed to sense some kind of call and its radiance increased
accordingly.
At the same time, all bells and drums in every mountain temple within the capital began ringing on their
own accord.
Countless monks looked up in astonishment towards where Selena was standing outside of town,
excitedly prostrating themselves on their knees.
Selena held onto her shining staff while feeling as if she had grasped something profound that
encompassed heaven and earth within her palm. She turned towards the resonating "Bodhi Bone"
before asking: "Would Miss Lillian be willing to come? The Holy Monk wishes to stay here..."
Lillian lowered her gaze with a hint of emotion before giving a shallow smile. "I have been too attached
to my homeland for far too long; I should have sent him back home sooner."
This meant she agreed.
Selena gently placed down her Vajra Staff as silence filled up every inch around them.
Bianca's face went completely white because she never expected there would be something so
powerful that could completely overshadow these two treasures within the capital.
The hell flower was not the only thing destroyed, but also the Bodhi bone...
Bianca shuddered at Selena's condition. If Selena won, her entire family would pay the price.
Although Bianca's surname was Riddle, she had no relation to the Riddle Group royal family. Her family
was just a small one before climbing up to Lillian.
If her actions caused harm to her entire family, it would be a disaster.
Bianca felt extremely fearful and stood there in confusion until she suddenly heard Lillian's voice say,
"You've seen the first two treasures already. It's time for the third."
Lillian's calm voice jolted Bianca back to reality.
She remembered bringing in a third treasure from Central City and felt joyous at its value compared to
Selena's first two treasures. As long as they won with their third treasure, Selena would still be
considered a loser despite having more items than them.
With this thought in mind, Bianca's expression improved as she looked over at Selena's table with envy
and resentment suppressed within her heart before turning towards the last unopened box.
Lillian kept an eye on that third box while speaking softly,"It seems like Selena is very popular in the
capital..."
These two treasures came from different families which Lillian could tell at first glance. Not to mention
that she had already investigated everything about Selena in the capital and knew that many men were
attracted by this cousin of hers.
Selena's lips curved into a smile. "Why, are you interested in my love life?"
Lillian let out a small sigh. "You've always been liked by everyone since you were young, unlike me -
cold and tough. I just never expected..."
Her gaze became playful. "Selena, have you ever considered Stanley's feelings while being with your
boyfriend?"
Selena's eyes turned cold as she looked over at her. "What exactly are you trying to say?"
Being with Osvaldo, did she consider Stanley's feelings? Shouldn't he be happy for her finding
someone to rely on for life? Selena remembered what happened after Stanley came to the capital city
and furrowed her brows.
Lillian gave her a meaningful look. "No, nothing really. I just suddenly thought that if I were to get
married someday, Robert would also be happy for me."
