Rebirth of the Arch-nemesis

Chapter 58: Xiandao Night Market

Views:

In order to avoid attracting attention and causing trouble, Qi Wan'er left the palace with Yao Feng without her entourage. The guards of Biyou Palace were Nanzhu's trusted forces. When they heard that Yao Feng wanted to visit the night market, they politely gave way and ordered the boat to send the two out of the guardian formation. With Jun Muzhi's reminder, the two went to Xianshe Island without a doubt.

The terrain of Fairy Snake Island is as long and narrow as a snake. It is not as big as the main island, but the night market is not small. It is as prosperous as the capital city on earth. However, the structure here is more complicated. There are toys and fresh seafood snacks for sale for mortals, as well as items for the cultivation world, most of which are ships, cold jade, high-grade pearls and spiritual shells.

The street lights are as bright as day, and everywhere you look there are crowds of people. All kinds of sounds are intertwined, making it more lively than during the day.

The two walked side by side on the street. Qi Wan'er wore a silver hair crown inlaid with blue crystals and a white cape over her sleeves. She looked like a child from an ordinary aristocratic family. Yao Feng wore a black short-sleeved shirt with two black rubber bands as thick as fingers wrapped around his waist. His hair was tied up with an ebony hairpin. This outfit was very inconspicuous.

Qi Wan'er didn't like crowded streets. She paced and said, "The so-called fairy island has become a vulgar place now."

Yao Feng remained silent.

She had originally wanted to use him as a cover, but Qi Wan'er was still thinking about the sword fight, so she made small talk: "The place outside the mountain must be quiet."

Yao Feng remained silent.

Qi Wan'er looked at the sword on his back from the side and praised: "What a great sword!"

Yao Feng finally spoke: "Thank you."

Qi Wan'er was born into a wealthy family and had a keen eye. She took a quick glance during the day and determined that this was a rare ancient sword. Upon hearing this, she smiled and said, "It's of good quality. This sword must have some history."

He praised the other party's favorite sword highly. Logically, the other party should have introduced it politely. However, Yao Feng just said "hmm" and said nothing more.

Qi Wan'er was choked with anger. It was not easy for a proud boy like him to flatter others actively, so how could he continue to make himself embarrassed? She just held her head high and walked away.

There are many Lingbei shops ahead. High-level Lingbei are spirit storage materials, which contain a large amount of spiritual energy. In addition to being used for refining items, they can also store a small amount of true energy for cultivators to use at critical moments when their true energy is exhausted. Although the storage capacity is small, it is enough to activate spell scrolls or sword pages to escape. When cultivators of the same level fight, the amount of true energy is the key to victory. Therefore, accessories made of Lingbei are very popular, suitable for both male and female cultivators.

Qi Wan'er had spent most of her time in seclusion since she was old enough to understand, and she rarely went out. How could she not be tempted when she first saw this overseas scene? At first, he still acted like a young master of a noble family, with his hands behind his back, pretending to walk straight ahead through two streets, but in the end, he couldn't help it and followed the crowd into a Lingbei store.

This Lingbei store has an extraordinary layout, high prices and correspondingly better quality than those sold outside. Most of the items sold inside are Lingbei accessories, including women's bracelets, necklaces, hairpins and flower ornaments, as well as men's sword ornaments, hair ornaments and pendants, as well as flower baskets, pen holders, screens and other items made of Lingbei, in different colors and with novel and unique styles.

Qi Wan'er took a bracelet and played with it.

The waiter could read people's faces and said hurriedly, "Young Master, you have good taste. This kind of bracelet is most popular among ladies and ladies. It originally cost one thousand feather coins, but now there is only this one left. I'll give you eight hundred to save."

Eight hundred feather coins are also very expensive, but the amount of true energy stored in this bracelet is not low, so it is worth the price.

"Eight hundred is eight hundred," Qi Wan'er said generously, pointing at a red shell sword ornament, "This one, that one, pack them all for me."

The Qi family has never lacked soul-storing ornaments, and the quality is not bad, but those are all exquisite things that have been carefully polished and refined, unlike this one which is naturally interesting. It would be a good gift for mother.

The clerk happily packed the things in a box and handed it to him: "A total of two thousand three hundred."

Qi Wan'er had never purchased anything before. Whatever he wanted, he just gave the order and someone would buy it for him. Now he felt the joy of it for the first time and was very satisfied. He stretched out his hand to take money from the Qiankun bag on his waist, but found nothing. Then he remembered that he had changed his clothes and belt before, and probably left the Qiankun bag in the room.

Just when it was awkward, a familiar figure appeared beside him. It turned out that Yao Feng followed in without saying a word.

Qi Wan'er secretly breathed a sigh of relief, pulled Yao Feng over and asked in a low voice: "Do you have money? Lend me some."

Yao Feng took out fifty feather coins and gave them to him without saying a word.

"What's the use of this little bit?" Qi Wan'er was speechless and said unhappily, "Give me more."

Yao Feng took out another fifty feather coins.

Qi Wan'er's face darkened: "You are such a petty person..." When he said this, he suddenly remembered that the Yao family outside the mountain was as famous as the Qi family, so he swallowed the rest of his words and said impatiently, "Give them all, and I'll return them to you when I get back!"

Yao Feng said "Oh" and really took out a bag of gold and silver from his arms and handed it to him.

"Sun and Moon Capsule?" Qi Wan'er was stunned.

Among the storage bags in the world of cultivation, the Qiankun Bag is of the highest quality and has the largest storage capacity, and is usually only owned by large families. As for the Sun and Moon Bag, it is even rarer. Although its storage capacity is smaller than that of the Qiankun Bag, it can store living things, which is far beyond the reach of other storage bags. It is more troublesome to refine it, so it is naturally extremely valuable.

Only then did Qi Wan'er carefully look at the person in front of her.

The black cloth shirt is very ordinary, but if you look closely, the corner inside is... Caiyun silk! This silk has extremely strong defense, and it requires the joint efforts of three inner alchemy masters to refine it! The pattern of the black rubber band on the waist is also a bit special, it looks like... a thousand-year-old dragon tendon? And the hairpin...

Even though Qi Wan'er was from the Qi family, she was still shocked.

As expected of the Yao family, everything they use is a rare treasure!

Seeing him hand over the Sun Moon Capsule so readily, Qi Wan'er felt a little embarrassed. She took the Sun Moon Capsule and said with a smile, "Thank you, Brother Yao..."

Before he could finish his words, his smile froze.

After a while.

Qi Wan'er stretched out her other hand expressionlessly, lifted the bottom of the Sun and Moon Bag with her index finger and thumb, and poured it out directly.

More than two hundred feather coins floated down, followed by some scattered materials and a small box.

Qi Wan'er's eyebrows jumped: "You brought a lot of money."

Yao Feng said: "Not bad."

Not bad? This little money is not enough for a day's pocket money! Qi Wan'er endured it again and again: "Master, do you want me to lend you some?"

Yao Feng said: "Outside the mountain, feather coins are not used."

It turned out that he had earned these two hundred feather coins. Qi Wan'er was speechless. She threw the Sun and Moon Bag on the counter and turned to leave.

"Your stuff." Yao Feng picked up the box on the counter and called him.

Surrounded by so many gazes, Qi Wan'er took a deep breath, turned around and glared at him, gritted her teeth and said, "I'm not buying it!"

Yao Feng was silent for a moment, then said to the waiter, "We don't have enough money, how about we use the Sun and Moon Bags to pay for it?"

Sun and Moon Capsules? The guy was confused.

"What?" Qi Wan'er's face turned pale. She quickly snatched the Sun and Moon Bag from the waiter and threw it back to him. "If you don't want to buy it, then don't buy it. Let's go!" After saying that, she strode away on her own.

Yao Feng looked at his back, said nothing, waved his sleeves to pick up the things on the ground, said "sorry" to the waiter, and then walked out the door, only to find Qi Wan'er standing not far away in a daze.

Yao Feng walked over: "What's going on?"

"I just saw someone, like..." Qi Wan'er looked at the street intersection ahead, a little uncertain.

"Go and have a look?"

"Forget it," Qi Wan'er came back to her senses and waved her hand uninterestedly, "Let's go back."

Several guards from Biyou Palace were waiting at the dock with Nanzhu's handprints. Upon seeing the two return, a guard immediately used his handprint to open the entrance to the guardian formation and welcomed the two into the palace.

The seven Qi clan monks were relieved to see Qi Wan'er return safely. Qi Wan'er went into the room without saying anything. Yao Feng nodded to everyone and went back to his room to rest. Everyone didn't know what happened and dispersed with doubts.

Not long after, Qi Wan'er came out of the room again. He stood in front of the steps, hesitated for a while, and went over to knock on Yao Feng's door.

The door opened, and Yao Feng was surprised to see him.

"Just now in the store..." Qi Wan'er coughed softly, turning her head to avoid his sight, looking a little uncomfortable, "I didn't mean to look down on you."

Yao Feng looked at him for a moment: "Yeah."

Qi Wan'er was brought up in an aristocratic family since childhood and never judged people by their wealth. However, he, a child of an aristocratic family who was doted on by his elders, had never worried about spending. The first time he was embarrassed in public was on Penglai Island, so he couldn't help but be angry. When he calmed down and thought about what happened, he realized that he had lost his status as a child of an aristocratic family and would probably be despised by Yao Feng. The more he thought about it, the more regretful he became. He tossed and turned, unable to sleep, and could not help but run over to explain. As he said these words of apology, his handsome face had already turned red.

Seeing this, Yao Feng said something rare: "I don't blame you."

"Oh... Brother Yao has a broad mind, which is admirable," Qi Wan'er breathed a sigh of relief and handed over a box with three top-grade feather coins in both hands. "This is a small gift as an apology, please accept it, Brother Yao."

One high-quality feather coin can be exchanged for one thousand medium-quality feather coins, and one medium-quality feather coin is equivalent to one thousand ordinary feather coins. The compensation of three high-quality feather coins can be said to be very valuable.

Yao Feng was stunned for a moment and frowned: "No need."

"I think Brother Yao doesn't need anything," Qi Wan'er pretended to be relaxed and said, "These are just worldly things on me. They are just a small token of my appreciation. There is no need to refuse them, Brother Yao." He really meant well. In the world of cultivation, feather coins are the most practical.

"No need." Yao Feng still refused.

"This..." Qi Wan'er quickly stopped talking when she noticed the movement behind her. She looked sideways and saw Duan Qingming returning from the night. Qi Wan'er forgot to continue talking for a moment and stared at Duan Qingming with a complicated expression.

Duan Qingming smiled when he saw the two of them and stopped at the steps: "Brother Yao, are you still awake?"

Yao Feng nodded and said, "Go to bed early," then closed the door.

Duan Qingming looked at the box in Wan'er's hand and asked, "Hey, what did cousin Wan'er hold?"

"It has nothing to do with you." Qi Wan'er put away the box, walked back to her room and closed the door heavily.

Duan Qingming walked up the stairs but did not return to his room. He stood alone on the stairs for a moment, his eyes flickering slightly. He reached out and pushed open the door of Gu Pinglin's room next to him and walked in.

In the darkness, a golden seal fell down on his head.

Duan Qingming reacted quickly and dodged: "You are here?"

"Of course," Gu Pinglin's sneer and palm wind came at the same time, "Do you think I will wait for you in your room?"

"Oh, I guessed wrong."
