BXBX NOVEL Chapter 26: Long road ahead
--"Miss Xie, I really didn't expect you to give me something as important as this, is it really okay for me to, have it?" he asked, referring to the Elder Token she gave him. On top of that, she gave it to him on their first meeting what was she planning? He thought, though he already had an idea.
Xie Meiyu nodded to him as she shrugged her shoulders with a beautiful smile.
--"I don't need it for now and I owe you favors; it's better you have it. Besides, you'll need it." She said with a smile, and Tang Yin looked at her with some doubt.
--"Will I need it?" he asked, and she nodded.
--"Those materials seem to be important to you. I'll tell you where to get them." She said, and Tang Yin then became more interested.
--"You must go to the northern region, to the extreme north. Before you get there, you will pass through the Northeast Desert Cities, where you might find some materials. After that you will go to the North Main City, there you will find others easily, you will also find information to find the most difficult ones. To get that information you will need this token, so use it for now.
Next time we meet, you can give it back to me if you want." She said, and Tang Yin made a mental note of everything she said.
She didn't know how important it was for him that she would give him that information in such a detailed way. If she chose to tell him everything without going into detail, he would have to find out more information because he had no idea about this place, and that could be problematic.
The system map disappeared, and he has not seen it anymore it is possible that it only appears in missions like that, and of those missions, he will not be able to find them every day, besides it is a map limited to the environment, so it is not so detailed.
He can't look for information about this place on such a map, so this detailed information was very important to Tang Yin.
--"Thank you very much, Miss Xie, I hope to see you soon." He replied, and she nodded.
--"By the way, there is an Alchemical Fire nearby, don't you want it?" she asked before Tang Yin could say goodbye, and Tang Yin looked at her.
--"Oh? What Grade?" he asked with interest.
--"Common, it has the probability of ascending to Earth Grade." She said with a smile, but her answer made Tang Yin lose interest, contrary to her expectations.
--"It's no use, Miss Xie. In this region there is no Alchemical Fire capable of ascending unless it eats another, so don't waste your time." Tang Yin said helplessly.
'I already have an Earthly Alchemical Fire in my inventory, waiting for you to become part of my harem, why don't you do it now so I give it to you?' That's what he thought, but obviously, he didn't say it.
His answer surprised Xie Meiyu.
--"Are you sure?" she asked as she moved a little closer to him, and he nodded.
He was more than sure.
He had bought some information a few days ago when he was buying what he needed, and this information told him that this place is very desolate in every way.
Also, what Earthly fire can come out in the presence of the 19-Level Abyss?
Those guys are running away from this place.
But that's information Xie Meiyu doesn't know, but still, Tang Yin's answer left her thoughtful, but after a moment, she sighed.
--"Young Master, since you plan to travel, do you have enough money or do you need me to buy more Bamboo for you?" she asked with a smile, and Tang Yin looked at her doubtfully.
--"Are you sure you want to buy more?" He asked, and she then pulled out several money cards.
--"At the same price, I can buy 500, how about that? Don't you think it's tempting? The materials you are looking for are expensive, you won't get them at low prices." She said, and Tang Yin looked at the cards in her hand. He was surprised to see her take out the cards so casually.
'It looks like she already had them ready, is she trying to help me and thus gain my favor? Looks like she talked to that old man hiding near her.' Tang Yin thought realizing her intentions, so he smiled and nodded.
--"You're right about that, but can you buy 100 from Miss Huang? Due to a special circumstance, she needs to raise some money. The bamboo she has are of the same quality as mine." He said, and Huang Feifei looked up to see him, surprised, though she didn't say anything because she knew she did need them.
Xie Meiyu raised her eyebrows slightly upon hearing this and looked at Huang Feifei, and after a moment's thought, she shrugged her shoulders.
--"Alright, Miss Huang, since you are Young Master Tang's friend, I will buy them from you at the same price. 50 spiritual gold coins for each 1-meter piece, does that please you?" She asked with a smile as she looked at her, and Huang Feifei looked at her, stunned.
--"So much?" She asked, and Xie Meiyu nodded, then passed her a card with 5,000 Coins inside and then the other cards she gave to Tang Yin, and he then gave her the 500 pieces of bamboo.
A clean and quick trade, disadvantageous for Xie Meiyu, but she didn't mind.
After that, Tang Yin decided to say goodbye. It was no good if the other guys hesitated for a moment, and caught up with them.
--"Miss Xie, thank you very much for your help this time and for the token. I will use it properly, don't worry about it. I hope to see you soon." Tang Yin said, and Xie Meiyu nodded to him.
--"I hope to see you soon, Young Master Tang. Take care of yourself." She said taking her leave.
But before he turned around, Tang Yin looked at her and smiled a little.
--"By the way, Miss Xie. For you, an alchemical cultivator of the Spiritual King Realm, having your Spiritual Bones with Spiritual Orange Grade Attitudes is too pitiful. At the very least try to have them at Spiritual Green Grade.
This will give you a good boost in your pill-making ability." Tang Yin said with a smile and then turned around to start walking, Xie Meiyu was a bit surprised to hear this and looked at him, but when she was about to speak, she realized that this one was already walking a bit far and sighed.
'Fuck, what do you mean Orange Grade is low for a Spirit King? I'm a genius among my peers, even that is seen as pitiful?' She thought in annoyance, but could only sigh, then looked at Huang Feifei who had fallen behind.
--"Thank you very much, Miss Xie." Huang Feifei then said she did not know how she should thank this person for what she had done for her both a while ago and at this moment by buying the bamboo from her at such a high price. With this, she had already completed one of the requirements, and all thanks to her, so she bowed to Xie Meiyu.
Then Xie Meiyu stroked her head a little.
--"Little one, good luck in your adventures. I hope when I see you again you will be more beautiful and stronger. Remember, if you seek revenge, only come back when you can cover the sky of this empire with one hand. Also, take care of Young Master Tang, he will surely give you great benefits." Xie Meiyu said, and after seeing Huang Feifei nod, she turned around and left back to the city.
Huang Feifei then began to follow Tang Yin, always thinking about what Xie Meiyu had just told her.
--"Young Master, what did she mean by covering the empire's sky with one hand?" she asked unable to hold back her doubt any longer.
Tang Yin smiled a little as he heard this.
--"Did you see the Young Man who scolded Lord Huang, the father of your enemy?" he asked, and then Huang Feifei noticed that this was strange and nodded.
Seeing her nod, Tang Yin continued.
--"The Huang Family is big and powerful, not only in this city but also in the capital. If I'm not mistaken, he should be the Young Master of the Huangs in the capital. According to Miss Xie, those in the capital have at least one person in the Spirit King Realm.
So, if you want to take revenge for your best friend, you can only get enough strength to crush them in one go." Tang Yin said, and Huang Feifei was surprised.
--"Are they really that powerful?" She asked in amazement.
She always thought that the most powerful of the Huang Family was Lord Huang.
She thought it wasn't that far away, but now...
'Spirit King Realm? How far is that from me? I'm barely in the first realm...' She thought regretfully, and her mood visibly declined.
'Yurou... Looks like it's going to be difficult...' She thought as she remembered her best friend.
Tang Yin noticed that her mood had visibly declined and smiled at her while patting her head.
--"Although they say revenge is not good, if it is revenge that helps you find the determination to improve yourself, then you should take advantage of it. The Spiritual King Realm is not far from you, you'll see." Tang Yin told her, and she looked at him but only nodded several times and replied with a 'Thank you, young master'.
After that, they both continued walking down that road for a long while until they took a detour, according to the directions Xie Meiyu had given Tang Yin.
There was a long road ahead of them.
