Although this plan was originally proposed by Chen Xu himself.
But after Chen Xu finally purchased that copy of the "Sects Manual," he told Ji Yang to stop.
In the end, the Qi Radiance Pills he had, plus those from the beginning, still amounted to two hundred thirty-two.
Ji Yang himself had thirty-seven Qi Radiance Pills.
Chen Xu asked Ji Yang, "Do you have a target sect? If so, I can buy you a recruitnt note."
At that ti, Ji Yang dared not openly answer anything to Chen Xu, but his face turned pale in an instant.
The "Sects Manual" in his hand was gripped tightly, almost creasing the pages.
Fortunately, Ji Yang quickly ca to his senses. He hurriedly released his grip and carefully stored the book in his own Storage Pouch, saying, "No, no, this won’t do."
Nobody knew what his "won’t do" ant, except Chen Xu.
A quarter of an hour later, Ji Yang left the Free Boat with all the materials he purchased, carrying that bulging Storage Pouch.
Before disembarking from the flying boat, Lady ng, with an expression of reluctance, asked him:
"Young Master Ji, you already have eight Celestial Secret Boxes. Are you really not going to save up ten to try your luck once?"
Ji Yang couldn’t decide, so he replied honestly, "Fairy ng, I have already bought enough."
Lady ng sighed and reminded him, "Then make sure you keep your Hundred Treasures Token safe. Next ti you gather ten Celestial Secret Boxes, we can test your fortune as well."
The Hundred Treasures Token was sothing the Golden Abacus temporarily made to mark the number of Celestial Secret Boxes.
The speed at which the Golden Abacus operated was truly amazing.
You should know, just before Ji Yang left the flying boat, baskets of Celestial Secret Boxes were being pushed into the bustling hall.
The steward of the Celestial Boat Comrce was loudly announcing, "Fellow cultivators, our comrce today launches an item called the Celestial Secret Box..."
The concept of the Celestial Secret Box had caused a small-scale sensation on the street where Ji Yang set up his stall at the ti.
Although it spread fast, it wasn’t yet widely known.
Most cultivators on the Free Boat were still unaware.
As they heard the novel concept of the Celestial Secret Box, they couldn’t help but be intrigued.
This one said, "Interesting, what a Heavenly Inquiry, I must try it!"
That one said, "Give ten! One Qi Radiance Pill each? Such a bargain, what good can co from it? Ha, aren’t they swindling an old man like ..."
The hall was bustling with excitent.
It was at this mont that Ji Yang said his farewells.
Of course, he couldn’t resist asking, "Fairy ng, are the Celestial Secret Boxes really just one Qi Radiance Pill each?
One Qi Radiance Pill each, can it really guarantee a rare Spiritual Object in ten consecutive draws?"
Lady ng laughed, "The Celestial Secret Box is one Qi Radiance Pill each, but the Thousand Treasures Box is ten Qi Radiance Pills each.
And the Hundred Treasures Box, one hundred Qi Radiance Pills each.
Only the Hundred Treasures Box can guarantee a rare Spiritual Object in ten consecutive draws."
She laughed so heartily, looking at Ji Yang with a gaze that seed to say, "Do you think we’re foolish?"
This made Ji Yang’s face turn red, and he finally left the flying boat, confused but accepted the communication Paper Crane she gifted him.
Lady ng, in her flowing scarf, looked like a cloud as she leisurely flew back to the Free Boat.
Ji Yang watched from below, srized and longing, "To fly so freely, I wonder when I can reach such a realm?"
Ha, this silly boy!
Ji Yang didn’t know, although he left the Free Boat, his actions were all observed from afar by the Golden Abacus and Lady ng.
The Golden Abacus chuckled, asking Lady ng, "Lady ng, what do you think of this boy?"
Lady ng, with a curious expression, said, "He is neither greedy for wealth nor lust, although he seems sowhat foolish in so matters, but thinking deeper, could it be great wisdom appearing as folly?"
"Great wisdom appearing as folly?" The Golden Abacus laughed heartily, "Oh Lady ng, you think too highly of him."
Lady ng, feeling puzzled, said, "Chief Shopkeeper, if you don’t think highly of him, why treat him with such courtesy?"
The Golden Abacus leisurely said, "Do I treat him with courtesy? Haha, I’m treating the person behind him with courtesy..."
"The person behind?" Lady ng frowned, "Chief Shopkeeper, since you don’t allow to track or investigate him, how can I find out about the person behind him?
Chief Shopkeeper, is the person behind, truly worth it?"
But the Golden Abacus did not explain further.
As a businessman, he had always been skilled at gaining much from little, never missing an investnt opportunity.
Yet so things didn’t need to be too clearly spoken to others.
Because if it’s an investnt, there’s always the possibility of failure.
And the Golden Abacus would never want to reveal the possibility of his own failure in front of anyone.
Even though he thought highly of Lady ng, to the point of considering her as a successor.
The Golden Abacus had a hunch that this particular investnt might be his most accurate one in recent years!
Ji Yang, carrying his wealth of materials, took one last stroll through the stalls.
But this ti, he shopped for himself.
He bought a few defensive Talismans for himself, as well as so Spirit Rice and Grain Avoidance Pills.
He also followed Chen Xu’s instructions to buy a few miscellaneous items from before.
Things like Disconnected Healing Ointnt, and Five Flavors Qi Circulation Pills.
These things were absurdly cheap, often costing just a few qingfu coins each.
Ji Yang didn’t understand why the mysterious senior wanted to buy these trivial items, but he didn’t ask questions and just did as told.
After half an hour, Ji Yang, in the bustling crowd, approached the Light Gate to leave the Hundred Battles Ruins.
He didn’t provoke anyone, queued up orderly, and quietly exited the Hundred Battles Ruins.
As he crossed the Light Gate, a peculiar feeling suddenly arose in Ji Yang’s heart.
He felt that he wasn’t alone—
No, he certainly was a person!
What he ant was, he seed to... not leave alone.
Was the senior following him?
Could he perceive the senior’s presence now?
Ji Yang stepped forward, transitioning through space and ti.
He staggered upon landing, filled with joy and apprehension.
But as he looked around, all he saw were people coming and going, none of whom seed to be that mysterious senior.
Until a surprised voice erged from the crowd: "Brother Ji, is that you!"
(Taking a pause, please refresh after ten minutes to see the update, thank you!)
