In the Nangu market, Jiang Yuebai and Lu Nanzhi were holding hands, with Xie Jingshan following beside them. The three of them went against the flow of people and listened to the vendors shouting.
Xie Jingshan looked sick, and muttered: "If I hadn't suddenly fallen ill, I wouldn't be so far behind you. I'm at the ninth level of Qi training..."
Xie Jingshan pressed his chest and took a breath. He felt as if he was really sick and his heart ached.
I wonder if the Grand Elder is short of spirit stones. How many spirit stones are needed to allow her to enlighten me once
He wants to buy it ten times, no, a hundred times!
Jiang Yuebai stuck out her tongue at Xie Jingshan, who pulled his eyelids and made a face in return. Lu Nanzhi looked at these two childish guys and shook his head.
Lu Nanzhi suddenly discovered today that Jiang Yuebai was in a much more relaxed mood. Ever since she came back from Yinshan Mine, she had been tense, smiling but not sincerely.
It's not like now, just like when he threw mud on her, he was so happy and heartless.
"Xie Jingshan, where is your shop?" Jiang Yuebai looked around and asked, "And what do you sell?"
Xie Jingshan pressed his painful eyes and pointed forward.
"That's it, the groceries seller."
Jiang Yuebai and Lu Nanzhi looked over and saw two shops selling everything right next to each other.
A deserted Qiankunfang and a bustling Shanhailou.
Jiang Yuebai stretched his neck to look at Shanhai Tower, then looked at Xie Jingshan and shook his head.
He then looked at Qiankunfang, which had a clearance sale sign hanging at the door, and nodded, thinking that it was consistent with Xie Jingshan's potential to be a spendthrift.
Jiang Yuebai pulled Lu Nanzhi towards Qiankunfang and said, "Xie Jingshan, you really need to save your spirit stones in the future. I will return half of the spirit stones I used to set up the formation during the competition."
"Are you insulting me?"
"Anan, please tell me something about this prodigal son. It's not easy to do business these days. Look, there's not a single customer at his shop, and he's still messing around... Eh? Xie Jingshan, what are you doing at Shanhailou?"
Xie Jingshan stopped at the entrance of Shanhai Tower. "Didn't you say you wanted to go to my shop? This way, let's go."
!!!
Jiang Yuebai looked at Lu Nanzhi, and she also looked shocked.
Jiang Yuebai swallowed his saliva, "Your family... you... you are the young master of Shanhai Tower?"
Xie Jingshan straightened his collar and shook his sleeves, "Yes, Shanhailou is my home, isn't it good?"
"I'm sorry, I spoke too loudly to you before! I hope the young master doesn't mind and give me a discount later!" Jiang Yuebai bowed and shouted.
Lu Nanzhi: …
Xie Jingshan was stunned for a moment, then suddenly said, "Actually, I lied to you. Shanhai Tower is not mine. The Qiankunfang next door is mine."
Lu Nanzhi: …
"Xie Jingshan, you bastard!" Jiang Yuebai raised his foot and kicked him.
"Hey, young master, why are you here?"
When the head manager of Shanhai Tower saw Xie Jingshan, he came towards him with a smile on his face.
Xie Jingshan lowered his head and saw Jiang Yuebai's feet suspended in mid-air, and the head shopkeeper next to him had a look of horror on his face.
Jiang Yuebai's forehead twitched, and he turned his ankle and smiled, "Xie Jingshan, do you think my shoes look good?"
"It doesn't look good!" Xie Jingshan rolled his eyes.
Lu Nanzhi turned stiffly and silently stepped into Shanhai Tower, pretending not to know the two people.
Xie Jingshan ordered his waiter to take Lu Nanzhi and Jiang Yuebai to the No. 1 VIP room, while he took out a piece of reflection jade and handed it to the chief shopkeeper in a mysterious manner.
It contains the part where he used Jiang Yuebai's formation to kill everyone during the small competition.
"Make a hundred copies of this Reflection Jade and give them to my ancestor, and tell him to show off to those old guys. By the way, where is my mother?"
The chief shopkeeper took the jade and said, "Madam appeared in Beihai last month, but I don't know if she is here this month."
Xie Jingshan's eyes darkened, "Then make another 500 copies and put one in every shop, tell them to give it to my mother if they see it, and ask her to leave a few words for me. Forget about my father, he just wants me to inherit the family business, so that he can travel around the world with my mother and fulfill his dream!"
The chief shopkeeper nodded, not knowing whether to laugh or cry.
Pushing open the door to the VIP room, Jiang Yuebai held up the catalog and said, "Xie Jingshan, I've never seen so many good things in Shanhailou before. Do you prepare two lists for your guests?"
Lu Nanzhi nodded, "I can understand that. It would be more profitable to hold an auction for some rare items."
Xie Jingshan sat down and asked, "What do you like?"
"This fire-controlling 'Fire Separation Art' is very useful for my fire alchemy method. And... this special magic weapon, the faceless mask, is much better than my half-baked disguise technique. It can simulate the aura of other people and even monsters. It's very useful, but it's really too expensive, five thousand medium-grade spirit stones."
The head shopkeeper came in and delivered the order. After Xie Jingshan took it, he said to Jiang Yuebai, "How about you give me the "Fire Separation Art", the Wuxiang Mask and a talisman in exchange for the sword pill in your hand?"
Jiang Yuebai blinked, "It's just a sword pill, you don't have to spend so much money to exchange it with me, right?"
Lu Nanzhi explained, "Sword pills are the same as talismans. When a Jindan cultivator dies, they will use secret methods to melt their life magic weapons or life magic swords into the golden talisman, leaving a part of the power for future generations to use and comprehend."
"Talisman treasures can be activated by foundation-building cultivators or even Qi training cultivators. They contain at least 10% of the power of Jindan cultivators, which is extremely powerful in the foundation-building stage. Talisman treasures are difficult to refine, and nine out of ten will fail. There are not many in the world. Sword pills are even rarer, because the number of sword cultivators in the cultivation world is not as many as that of Taoist cultivators."
Xie Jingshan continued, "Yes, and sword cultivation starts from the first level of Qi training, which is to use the sword to transform spiritual energy into sword energy for cultivation, which is different from the Taoist cultivation system. Although Shanhai Tower has many channels for collecting natural treasures, it is still difficult to find a sword pill that I want and is suitable for me."
"Although I have the Fire Spirit Root, the red mole on my palm carries the Gale Sword Intent. The Supreme Elder said that it was a mark from my previous life. Zhuo Qingfeng's Gale Sword Intent is powerful, and my Gale Sword Intent is lightning fast, but these two are actually branches of the Chasing Wind Sword Intent. I want to try to comprehend the Chasing Wind Sword Intent in your sword pill."
Jiang Yuebai took out the sword pill and said, "I came here today to sell it. I really can't use it. Since you need it, I'll give it to you. But I can't take advantage of you. Ask someone to calculate its value. If it's not enough to exchange for these two things, I'll make up for it."
Lu Nanzhi nodded, "Yes, even friends need to settle accounts clearly."
Xie Jingshan scratched his head, "Okay, I'll ask the head shopkeeper to personally identify it. You can take a look at the list of talismans first. This sword pill can be exchanged for at least two talismans."
"Wait," Jiang Yuebai stood up, "I just saw that your Shanhai Tower even has the skills of the demon clan. Can you help me ask if there are any skills of the Xianzhi clan?"
Xie Jingshan didn't understand, so he didn't ask any more questions and went out with the sword pill.
Not long after, Xie Jingshan came back and said, "Wait a moment. By the way, I just saw a medical practitioner buying something outside and I remembered, Jiang Yuebai, when is your birthday?"
"Why are you asking this?" Jiang Yuebai was still looking through the list of talismans.
Xie Jingshan said casually: "It's not me who asked, it's Shen Huaixi who has always been curious about whether you are older or younger than him. He said that you look young, but you are old at heart!"
The second half of the sentence was added by Xie Jingshan himself. He thought Jiang Yuebai would be angry, but unexpectedly she turned pale suddenly.
Lu Nanzhi was startled, "Xiaobai, what's wrong with you?"
Jiang Yuebai grabbed the hand that Lu Nanzhi extended to him, and his mind flashed with flashes of light, as he recalled the scenes related to the Xiaobi match with Shen Huaixi.
In the tree hole, he once healed his wounds and came into contact with his own blood.
During the battle with Zhuo Qingfeng, her hair was cut off several times, but Zhuo Qingfeng's sword energy was very strong, so her hair should not be able to be saved.
But... Shen Huaixi appeared again at that time and blocked Zhuo Qingfeng's big move for her.
"Xie Jingshan, tell me the truth, what did you tell Shen Huaixi about me?"
Jiang Yuebai's eyes suddenly became scary, and Xie Jingshan's heart tightened, "No... didn't say anything?"
"Really?" Jiang Yuebai asked.
Xie Jingshan said seriously, "Do I look like an unreliable person? Besides, Lu Nanzhi has told me many times that I should not tell others about things that everyone knows, and I should never tell others about things that only I know. So when Shen Huaixi asked me about you, I said I didn't know and let him ask you himself."
Jiang Yuebai felt relieved a little. Only her grandfather knew her birthday, no one else knew.
"Xiaobai, is there any problem with Shen Huaixi?" Lu Nanzhi asked.
"Xie Jingshan, is it safe here?"
Xie Jingshan stood up and triggered a mechanism, then nodded seriously to Jiang Yuebai.
Jiang Yuebai took a breath and told them both about Shen Huaixi.
Bang!
After hearing this, Xie Jingshan slammed the table and stood up.
"Impossible! Shen Huaixi and I have lived in the same courtyard since we were six years old. We eat and sleep together, go in and out together. Although we separated later, we have always kept in touch. If he is colluding with evil ways, how could I not know?!"
