Chapter 718: Rematch

“What do you want to do with this?” Xiao Hua lifted the storage pouch Feng Yuxiang gave her.

“Oh, there’s nothing but spirit stones inside. You can help — the Young Master buy dicine for his body temperant.” Feng Yuxiang replied.

“You want to go shopping with you…?” Xiao Hua mumbled.

Feng Yuxiang pondered for a mont before speaking, “How about this? Let’s have a rematch. I lost the previous one because you technically cheated by going to the upper heavens. This ti, whoever purchases the most treasures will win.”

“That’s not fair.” Xiao Hua imdiately frowned. “You have already spent 3 days buying many treasures.”

“Don’t worry, I won’t count those. I will also start from scratch, and I will limit my budget to your budget as well. How does that sound? That’s fair, right?”

“I guess…”

“But let be really clear this ti! You are not allowed to go to the upper heavens to purchase treasures! And the treasures purchased must be for body tempering!”

“I won’t.”

“Good! Then I will et you at the House of Riches in four days, when the Flood Dragon’s scale is going to be auctioned off. May the best shopper win!”

After that, Feng Yuxiang and Xiao Hua went their separate ways, but they both had the sa objective— to acquire as many treasures as possible.

anwhile, back at the hotel, Chu Liuxiang ca out of her room after a week of studying her techniques.

“How’s your progress?” Yuan asked her.

“I managed to learn one of the techniques, but the other one might take a little bit longer. Despite both being Heaven-rank techniques, the Glacial Ice Dragon is much more complex. However, even if I learn both skills, I won’t be able to use either of them at my cultivation. I simply don’t have enough Qi.”

“I should really start cultivating properly. I am already behind as it is.” Chu Liuxiang sighed.

“Once Feng Feng finishes selling the treasures, I will be able to buy resources to boost your cultivation level.” Yuan said.

“As much as I like the feeling of being spoiled by you, I don’t like the feeling of taking advantage of you. Is there anything you want in return?”

“Not really. I don’t need any compensation for helping you, or it won’t feel like I am helping you.”

“It’s not a compensation. If you do a favor, it’s only natural that I return the favor. It’s called expressing one’s gratitude, and that is being polite.”

“Even if I say that, there’s nothing that I want— at least I can’t think of anything right now.” Yuan shook his head.

“That’s okay. You can let know once you think of sothing. Until then, I will be indebted to you.” Chu Liuxiang smiled.

“By the way, how’s your situation with your family? It’s almost the end of the month, you know?” Yuan suddenly asked.

A bittersweet smile appeared on her face as she spoke, “Their calls are becoming more frequent, and of course, my family is getting angrier.”

“It’s alright though. I will visit them at the end of this week to let them know my feelings,” she added.

“Okay.” Yuan nodded.

Soti later, Yuan placed the level 3 array symbol manual down and asked Chu Liuxiang, “Do you want to get so food? I have watched thousands of people enter and leave this restaurant that’s directly across from us.”

“Sure. I need so fresh air, anyway.”

“What about you, Yingying?”

Lan Yingying transford back to her human form and nodded, “Yes.”

“Let ask Min as well.”

Yuan went to her room and knocked on her door.

“Min, we’re going to get so food. Would you like to co with us?”

Min Li’s voice responded a mont later, “Thank you for the invitation, but I am very close to a breakthrough.”

“Oh, sorry if I bothered you. And good luck with your breakthrough.”

Yuan left the hotel with Chu Liuxiang and Lan Yingying shortly after.

After walking a few steps, they arrived at the restaurant that was across from their hotel.

“Welco to our humble restaurant. How many guests today?”

“Just the three of us.”

“Very well. Please, follow to your table.”

Once they sat down, the waitress gave them a nu.

However, without even accepting the nu, Yuan said, “Just give us one of everything on the nu.”

“Eh? Are you sure?” The waitress looked at him with a baffled face.

“Yes.”

“I-I understand. Please wait a mont.”

The waitress went away and returned a couple of minutes later.

“This will be total. Are you okay with it?”

Yuan glanced at the bill and nodded, “Here, I will pay upfront. You can keep the change as well.”

“T-Thank you very much! The food will be here shortly!” The waitress quickly accepted Yuan’s gold coins without hesitation.

Once the waitress left, Chu Liuxiang smiled, “You sure are spending lavishly now that you’re rich.”

Yuan chuckled, “That’s not it. The higher my cultivation, the higher my appetite seems. If I don’t eat that much, I won’t feel satisfied.”

“Really? How co my appetite doesn’t increase?” Chu Liuxiang raised her eyebrows.

“Perhaps it has sothing to do with your physique.” Lan Yingying said.

“My physique also increases my appetite as my cultivation increases,” she added.

“That makes more sense. By the way, are you okay with not eating? I haven’t seen you consu magical beasts in a while.” Yuan asked.

She nodded, “Yes, I am fine. It’s not like I feel hunger if I don’t eat, and I don’t consu magical beasts to satisfy my hunger. It’s only to increase my cultivation. Also, I can not eat for months and remain perfectly fine. My increased appetite simply ans that I can eat more if I decide to eat. Furthermore, I have already feasted enough when I traveled with Feng Yuxiang and Xiao Hua.”

“That’s good to hear. If you ever feel like eating, just let know and I will go hunt so magical beasts with you.” Yuan said.

“Thank you.”

The food appeared shortly after, and they began eating.

While they ate, Yuan overheard the conversation of a few custors regarding an upcoming and unprecedented auction for a priceless treasure, which piqued his interest.
