Seeing Ji Xuanyue’s expression, Zhu Fei was slightly taken aback, then a bitter smile appeared on his face.
He did not directly answer Ji Xuanyue’s question but took out another piece of beast skin from his own body and pieced it together with the other two pieces.
As expected, after piecing them together, the Beast Skin Treasure Map was now three-quarters complete.
Ji Xuanyue’s beautiful eyes curved into crescents filled with amusent.
"I thought you wouldn’t want to tell the truth, but now it seems you didn’t disappoint after all."
Zhu Fei was speechless, thinking, ’Not disappointing you is sowhat contradictory to what you initially thought, isn’t it?’
Just as Zhu Fei had this thought, Ji Xuanyue suddenly laughed, pushed the three pieces of beast skin towards Zhu Fei, and then stretched her arms wide.
"It’s better for you to keep these. If you ever get the chance to find the last piece of the map, just let know."
"Oh, so you really trust that much? Aren’t you afraid I might not tell you when I find the last piece?"
Zhu Fei said, looking at Ji Xuanyue with a playful expression.
Ji Xuanyue was montarily stunned, then burst into laughter.
Amid her laughter, Ji Xuanyue couldn’t help but give Zhu Fei a white look, then chuckled and shook her head,
"Brother Zhu Fei, look at you, you can’t even joke about lying. If you were that kind of person, why would you have shown that piece of the map earlier?"
Once again, Zhu Fei was left speechless. He suddenly realized it was aningless to discuss such matters with Ji Xuanyue.
So, he simply ignored Ji Xuanyue and refocused on the ongoing auction below.
During the ti he and Ji Xuanyue had been talking, several items had already been auctioned.
At the mont, a top-grade flying True Artifact in the form of a windmill was placed on the auction table in front of the auctioneer.
This piqued Zhu Fei’s interest. Just as he was thinking about bidding on the top-grade flying True Artifact, Ji Xuanyue suddenly said,
"Zhu Fei, if you really want a top-grade flying True Artifact, you don’t need to buy that one. I can just give you one."
Startled by Ji Xuanyue’s words, Zhu Fei was surprised and turned to look at her.
Ji Xuanyue, feeling a bit irked yet embarrassed under Zhu Fei’s gaze, continued, "Don’t forget what I do now. I can easily afford to give you a top-grade flying True Artifact."
With that, Ji Xuanyue did not wait for Zhu Fei’s reaction but flipped her hand, and a beautifully crafted sailing ship appeared in her palm.
Zhu Fei did not take the flying sailing ship but instead looked warily at Ji Xuanyue, jokingly saying,
"Ji Xuanyue, you’ve given Spirit Stone Spirit Veins before, and now you want to give a top-grade flying True Artifact. Tell honestly, what are you really plotting?"
"I’m plotting against you?"
Ji Xuanyue’s eyes widened, nearly infuriated by Zhu Fei’s words, and she threw the flying sailing ship at him, exclaiming angrily,
"Zhu Fei! You jerk! Take it or leave it, I don’t care!"
After saying this, Ji Xuanyue moved to sit on the other side, puffed up her cheeks, and ignored Zhu Fei.
This left Zhu Fei dumbfounded. He had not expected his playful remark to elicit such a big reaction from Ji Xuanyue, leaving him not knowing whether to laugh or cry.
"Hey, Ji Xuanyue, are you serious? Can’t you even take a joke?"
Zhu Fei unapologetically accepted the flying sailing ship, then innocently shrugged his shoulders towards Ji Xuanyue.
"Pfft—"
For so unknown reason, upon seeing Zhu Fei’s sowhat rascally expression, Ji Xuanyue couldn’t help but burst into laughter.
But after laughing, her pretty face turned stern again, and she said irritably, "So what? If you’re not happy, bite ."
Zhu Fei was suddenly at a loss for words, thinking that won truly were the most unreasonable creatures in the world. He decided not to say more and shifted his gaze back to the ongoing auction below.
Damn it!
Seeing Zhu Fei react this way, Ji Xuanyue felt a bit resentful, secretly thinking, would it kill you to say so nice things to ?
Though that was what she thought, Ji Xuanyue didn’t dwell on this issue any longer and, like Zhu Fei, also turned her attention back to the auction.
...
As ti ticked away, the auction soon ca to a complete close.
During that ti, Zhu Fei didn’t bid on anything else, whereas Ji Xuanyue ended up buying a few items she needed.
Overall, despite so ups and downs, the auction concluded to the satisfaction of both Zhu Fei and Ji Xuanyue.
At least most of the items they wanted to purchase were not missed.
...
After leaving the auction venue, Zhu Fei and Ji Xuanyue concealed their presence and didn’t linger around, heading straight back to their respective rooms in the inn.
Upon entering his room, Zhu Fei imdiately set up several Prohibitions. After confirming that no outsiders could disturb him easily, he took out the nine-colored lotus and so other Spiritual dicines from his possession.
Yes, Zhu Fei was prepared to start making the Returning Void Pill.
Now that his cultivation had reached Perfect God Transformation, having the Returning Void Pill would ensure that breaking through to the Returning to Void Realm would no longer be challenging.
Without hesitation, a Pill Furnace appeared in front of Zhu Fei. Soon, he manifested the Divine Blue Netherworld Fire in his hands, swiftly placing the Spiritual dicines into the Pill Furnace.
Leveraging his past life’s alchemy experience and the current mastery of the Creation and Transformation Pill Scripture, it didn’t take long before the auxiliary Spiritual dicines were transford into a "pure" dicine Liquid, floating up and down within the Pill Furnace.
Watching the dicine Liquid bob within the Pill Furnace, Zhu Fei took a deep breath, then scooped up the nine-colored lotus and tossed it directly into the Pill Furnace.
In the Pill Furnace, the nine-colored lotus was quickly turned by the Divine Blue Netherworld Fire into nine drops of differently colored dicine Liquid, each emitting a strange and unique glow.
Zhu Fei suddenly prompted the spell...
In the next mont, those nine differently colored drops of dicine Liquid began rging with the rest of the "pure" dicine Liquid.
Gradually, shadows of nine differently colored pills started to form.
As Zhu Fei cast the final Pill formula, the nine differently colored pill shadows suddenly shook intensely.
The next second, an extrely rich pill fragrance suddenly drifted out from the Pill Furnace in front of Zhu Fei.
And the Pill Furnace’s original nine differently colored pills all turned into a crystal-clear ’milk’ white at that instant.
The Returning Void Pill had been completely refined by Zhu Fei at that mont!
