I Don’t Want It Anymore
Dong Xi calculated in her heart. Six spirit stones for a bottle of pills was indeed not expensive. This bottle could last for more than half a month. In fact, it was reasonable. In that case, she would not have to go to the cafeteria for 20 days and could just concentrate on her cultivation.
Dong Xi said indifferently, “Can I take a look?”
The Senior Brother who set up the stall was not stingy. In any case, these were all refined by him, so they were not very valuable to him. She just wanted to take a look, and he would not lose anything. He immediately took out a bottle of Fasting Pills and handed it to Dong Xi.
“Feel free to take a look. I made them myself. I guarantee there won’t be any problems.”
Dong Xi took the pill and opened the bottle to smell it. She was stunned for a moment. This smell was very familiar. Then, she thought of something and a smile appeared on her face. He closed the bottle and returned it to the stall owner.
“Thank you, Senior Brother.”
With that, Dong Xi turned around to leave. The stall owner and Ke Xin were both stunned. She had been looking like she wanted to buy it just a moment ago, but why did she give up after smelling it? What was going on?
Ke Xin quickly pulled Dong Xi back and asked, “Is there a problem? Why are you not buying them?”
Dong Xi naturally would not say it out loud. Moreover, there was nothing wrong with the stall owner’s pills. However, Dong Xi did not need to buy them anymore. She would go back and buy a jade slip so that she could read the rumors in the Immortal world when she had nothing to do.
“I don’t think there’s a need for it at the moment. I’d better go buy a jade slip.”
Ke Xin was speechless. She should have just bought the jade slip, but now they had to walk back. Ke Xin looked at the Fasting Pills and thought that she should have bought a bottle. After all, Dong Xi had asked so many questions, and she felt a little guilty.
“Then I’ll buy a bottle.”
Ke Xin was about to take the spirit stones when she suddenly thought of how Dong Xi had haggled with the waiter when they were buying the jade slip. Then, could they discuss the matter of buying the Fasting Pill?
Ke Xin said subconsciously, “Can you make it a little cheaper? We’re the new disciples of the alchemy sect. We don’t know how to refine pills yet.”
When the stall owner heard this, he was stunned for a moment. Then, he came back to his senses. He was once also a newcomer. Although the sect gave him some benefits, it was not much. He would help if he could, so the stall owner said with a smile, “No problem, five spirit stones will do.”
Ke Xin immediately paid the spirit stones happily and took the Fasting Pills. At the same time, she asked her Senior Brother to leave his spirit breath on the communication jade slip she had just bought. Next time she needed to buy something, she could just look for this Senior Brother directly. Ke Xin wanted to give a few of the fasting pills to Dong Xi, but Dong Xi shook her head and said, “No, I don’t need it for the time being.”
Ke Xin did not know what Dong Xi was thinking. She kept changing her mind. At this moment, after walking a few steps, Dong Xi saw a dusty iron sword on another stall. The patterns on the sword were very familiar to Dong Xi.
She thought about how she had learned some basic sword techniques, but she did not have a suitable weapon. She should buy a suitable one. Even if she did not have to fight, it would be good even if she used it to practice basic sword techniques.
“How much is this iron sword?”
The stall owner was a middle-aged man. When he saw that it was a little girl who asked the question, he immediately lost interest. Most of these little girls were from the Alchemy Sect and did not know any sword techniques at all. She was probably just asking for fun.
The stall owner said casually, “I found this sword in the Secret Realm. I won’t sell it for less than 50 lower spiritual stones.”
Dong Xi immediately frowned. Such a price was not something she could afford. The price was simply too high. Just as Dong Xi was about to stand up and leave, a cold male voice suddenly sounded in her mind.
‘Buy it.’
Dong Xi was speechless. Dong Xi also wanted to buy a lot of things, but how could she buy them? With the few spirit stones she had left? Even if the stall owner agreed to sell it, Dong Xi would not even be able to afford the teleportation array to return to the sect after buying it.
Dong Xi was also in a state of despair. She picked up the iron sword and injected some spiritual energy into it, but there was no reaction at all. It was like a stone sinking into the sea.
After Dong Xi tried it, she looked at the stall owner and said, “Six spirit stones. Are you selling?”
The stall owner completely ignored her. The asking price was 50 spirit stones, but this little girl said six spirit stones. Even if she was haggling, it was too excessive, right?
Dong Xi saw that the stall owner did not say anything, so she gritted her teeth and immediately bet all her assets. “Eight spirit stones, okay?”
The stall owner immediately became a little dissatisfied. Although this iron sword was not a divine weapon, it was still something that he had worked hard to find. The price that the little girl in front of him said was too low. It was simply ridiculous.
The stall owner said with his eyes wide open, “You little girl, don’t cause trouble here. Go play somewhere else.”
