At first, when the two cultivators stood in front of Ji Yang’s stall, no one beside them paid any attention.
The male cultivator frowned, while the female cultivator was full of anticipation.
Ji Yang himself was restless, opening his mouth several tis, wanting to call out to that mysterious senior whose whereabouts were unknown.
Unbeknownst to him, Chen Xu was right beside him watching.
The female cultivator, full of interest, opened the first Celestial Secret Box, and imdiately saw a pile of miscellaneous small items tumble out.
Fire Talismans, Rain Avoidance Talismans, magical artifact fragnts, roughly refined ore, and so on.
A chaotic ss, not entirely worthless, but mostly insignificant items.
The only sowhat useful thing inside was a bottle of six Grain Avoidance Pills, but this bottle of Grain Avoidance Pills was valued at most at twenty copper coins, far from worth one Qi Radiance Pill.
The female cultivator was imdiately disappointed, and the male cultivator, whose face was already unhappy, instantly beca furious:
"What Celestial Secret Box, just a pile of filthy rubbish, swindler, compensate quickly!"
As he spoke, he glared and reached out to grab Ji Yang’s collar.
This male cultivator had a cultivation level of Foundation Establishnt Perfection, just one step away from reaching the Qi Refining realm.
He wasn’t a top expert, but among his peers, he could be considered an elite.
To deal with soone like Ji Yang, who was at most a Little Cultivator of the Qi Refining Fifth Layer, was easy, a simple capture.
He naturally dared not cause any major trouble in the Hundred Battles Ruins, but at the mont, he wasn’t planning to cause trouble; he just wanted to confront the swindler.
Weighing the pros and cons, the male cultivator struck swiftly as lightning.
Ji Yang’s eyes widened, finding no way to dodge.
Suddenly, an inexplicable chill swept over, like a wind from a gap in the world, or as if a deadly predestined threat from above.
It swiftly passed through the male cultivator’s outstretched palm, stabbing directly into his Heart Soul!
The male cultivator was shocked.
Before his brain could react, his hand quickly retracted.
At that mont, he undeniably felt as if he had rolled through an ice-cold cave filled with deadly traps.
He even suspected he had lost his life and Heart Soul in a split second.
The sense of near-death was too vividly intense.
When he ca to his senses, his palm was burning with pain.
The male cultivator was drenched in cold sweat, his heart pounding in shock, imdiately spreading open his palm to inspect it. Yet all he saw was smooth skin, with not a single mark of injury.
He... he wasn’t dead?
Indeed, he truly wasn’t dead!
Surviving a calamity, filled with horror, confusion, disbelief... various emotions intertwined, leaving the male cultivator standing there, clutching his palm, as if dumbfounded.
No one knew the emotional upheaval he experienced at that mont, except for the female cultivator beside him who pushed him and scolded:
"What are you doing? We’ve already said the contents of these boxes are placed at random, and our selection is entirely by chance, so so boxes have good things, and so don’t.
How can you open just one box and then curse the stall owner?"
The male cultivator remained silent, still sowhat dazed, not fully out of his recent near-death tornt.
The female cultivator’s attention was entirely on the box and didn’t notice his current odd state. Seeing him not respond, she assud he had listened to her advice.
Thus, the female cultivator began to open another box.
As she opened it, she spoke to Ji Yang: "Little brother, while your box is interesting, if each one contains only such trivial items, I won’t stand for it.
I may not destroy your stall, but I will surely inform all my acquaintances to avoid shopping here.
You should be honest!"
She spoke with a slightly playful smile, and her charming and fresh deanor was indeed refreshing and pleasant.
Ji Yang watched her about to open the second box, fearing she would once again uncover a heap of junk—
Truth be told, Ji Yang was nearly dragged by the male cultivator earlier, his hand quickly retracted, but the tension and urgency from that mont remained in Ji Yang’s mind.
His emotions hadn’t entirely cald.
Most importantly, when the male cultivator’s hand withdrew earlier, Ji Yang also felt a sharp presence sweeping by his side.
He imdiately realized that this must have been the mysterious senior aiding him.
Ji Yang’s heart raced with a mix of surprise and delight, even feeling his nose tingle.
Having wandered for over a decade, he now had soone to rely on!
Ji Yang couldn’t describe his feelings at that mont; he was simply too emotional.
He couldn’t ruin the senior’s matters; he must carefully follow the senior’s teachings.
Presently, seeing the female cultivator opening the second box, Ji Yang feared she wouldn’t find desirable items, leading to his Celestial Secret Box business failing right as it started, so he quickly said:
"Fellow Daoist, if you don’t find anything to your liking in this second box, I can offer you another Celestial Secret Box.
Consider it a token of gratitude for your tolerance and trust, for being the first to purchase a Celestial Secret Box from ."
As he spoke, his expression was sincere, and his words were genuinely earnest.
Without hesitation, he handed another box to the female cultivator, maintaining a simple smile.
The boxes on his stall were mostly disordered, and Ji Yang himself wasn’t sure what was inside them all.
But he had deliberately kept aside a few boxes containing Spiritual Food, which he now intended to use.
The female cultivator was satisfied with Ji Yang’s attitude; her previous disappointnt at not finding good items had disappeared, and she continued to speak:
