Ten minutes later, in the private lounge.

Ning Yanlan was dumbfounded. Following Jiang Yuan's instructions, she soaked the entire black bead in her blood, and then a beam of light entered her mind, allowing her to acquire all the information about insight.

"This thing... is amazing!" Ning Yanlan was extremely surprised. Jiang Yuan, who used to be mysterious, became clearer in her eyes.

"It can also be used to appraise some items!" Jiang Yuan reminded him.

However, Ning Yanlan did not take out any treasures for appraisal. Instead, she looked Jiang Yuan up and down before relaxing her brows and saying, "So it really can't see through things!"

Jiang Yuan: "What the hell??"

So you've always thought I could see through you? Do you think I, Jiang Yuan, am that kind of sleazy person?

"You're not envious of me now, are you?" Jiang Yuan quickly changed the subject, unable to stand Ning Yanlan's scrutinizing gaze.

"Who said that? I envy you!" Ning Yanlan chuckled.

"What are you envious of? I'm more envious of your fourth-level cultivation!" Jiang Yuan said speechlessly.

"I envy you for having such an elegant, beautiful, gentle, kind, and intelligent woman..."

"Stop!" Jiang Yuan interrupted Ning Yanlan; he knew she was at it again.

"My girlfriend!" Ning Yanlan insisted on finishing her sentence.

Jiang Yuan smiled warmly, which was a tacit acceptance of their relationship. Even though one of them was engaged and the other had a girlfriend, they were undoubtedly lovers now.

"Let's go find a fourth-tier ice spell. We'll sell everything we own to buy it!" Jiang Yuan didn't dare to be too direct because of Xuan'er, but as the ancients said, if you love her, you'll spend money on her. He understood the essence of that saying.

Since the storage ring was with Ning Yanlan, he wouldn't feel anything even if he spent all the Holy Spirit Stones.

"There's nobody here!"

Ning Yanlan stood up and glanced weakly at Jiang Yuan. Jiang Yuan understood immediately, and the two of them started kissing in a very cooperative manner.

Ten minutes later, Ning Yanlan left the lounge with a shy expression, followed by Jiang Yuan.

This time, browsing the trading area was truly Ning Yanlan's domain. She activated Insight and searched for treasures with great speed, while Jiang Yuan provided finishing blows from the side. Ning Yanlan's mastery of Insight was not yet particularly proficient, and due to the limitations of her cultivation level, she could not appraise treasures of too high a grade, so it was inevitable that she would miss some.

So Jiang Yuan followed silently behind.

No one knows how many treasures they bought. Anyway, when they didn't have enough Holy Spirit Stones, they used Enlightenment Pills and Creation Pills to make up for it. The amount of pills the two of them possessed was beyond the imagination of ordinary people.

Not everyone is like Jiang Yuan, opening unknown series items as easily as eating, and even if they open a pill, it's only one or two bottles at a time.

After all, the other person was doing single draws, while Jiang Yuan did a hundred consecutive draws as soon as he logged in; they were on completely different levels.

"Jiang Yuan, come quick! There really is a fourth-tier ice technique!"

Just as Jiang Yuan was following behind listlessly, Ning Yanlan ran over excitedly, showing no signs of being tired at all.

"Then let's buy it!" Jiang Yuan was now willing to spend more Holy Spirit Stones rather than continue browsing.

Look how long it's been for the two of them! They arrived at the core trading area at 8 a.m., and now it's 2 p.m. They've been walking for a full six hours!

Moreover, I don't know if those people are particularly resilient after being awakened or what, but there are hardly any people eating in the entire core trading area.

But Jiang Yuan was hungry. Although he had eaten a huge amount of Holy Spirit Beast meat, enough to sustain his strength for several days, his stomach was empty; he was habitually hungry.

"But there are two ice magic users, can you come and help me decide?" Ning Yanlan took Jiang Yuan's arm and pulled him to the two stalls.

"Hey, there's a young man here too!"

A woman's voice rang in Jiang Yuan's ears. Jiang Yuan forced himself to stay awake and then saw the owners of the two stalls.

The one on the left is a muscular middle-aged man; his energetic appearance clearly indicates he is a strong person.

As for the young lady on the right? That's impossible. Although she calls him "Brother Jiang Yuan," the stall owner is actually a woman in her mid-thirties.

However, this older woman is quite attractive, the kind that middle-aged men would madly pursue. Her curvaceous figure is enough to make people want to... have all sorts of things!

“Jiang Yuan, the Ice Mage belongs to these two stall owners!” Ning Yanlan pointed to a skill orb on each of the two tables.

The middle-aged man's skill orb depicts a scene of ice, while the older woman's skill orb depicts a scene of falling snow.

Both are ice magic, but the differences between the two are obvious from the surface. The icy scenery has a sharper artistic conception, while the snowfall scenery has a more magnificent momentum.

"Are they all fourth-tier?" Jiang Yuan asked, but he already knew the answer.

"Fourth-tier Ice Shard, Level: Excellent. Comprehending the essence of ice makes this technique even more lethal."

"Fourth-tier Snowfall Veil, Level: Good, Note: Part of the combo skill Snowfield."

"They're both fourth-tier, the one with ice is a bit stronger, but this one with snow feels a little different to me!" Ning Yanlan couldn't quite explain it, so she could only say, "It's...pretty!"

"How many Holy Spirit Stones will this cost? Do we have enough money?" Jiang Yuan asked softly.

"This handsome uncle said he'd give me a discount, only ten fourth-tier Holy Spirit Stones!" Ning Yanlan winked at Jiang Yuan, as if to say, "Aren't I amazing?"

"So cheap?" Jiang Yuan was a little surprised. Although this fourth-tier ice magic could be obtained from second-tier or third-tier cores, the probability was extremely low. It was more likely to be obtained from fourth-tier mithril or radiant gold cores. Therefore, the cost price was several fourth-tier holy spirit stones and a core.

"I complimented this uncle on his good character, great physique, and handsome looks, and after some discussion, he gave me a discount!" Ning Yanlan stuck out her tongue.
