"Ye Tian?"
Lin Xiao frowned as he looked at the person who was speaking.
Sure enough, the protagonist of destiny has a strong sense of smell for treasures. Ye Tian, who had only been separated for half an hour, actually ran into them at this opportunity.
"Boss, shouldn't business be about first come, first served?"
Lin Xiao glanced at the shop owner, and could tell from his troubled expression.
The boss knew who they were and dared not offend either of them.
Seeing that the boss remained silent for a long time, Lin Xiao spoke directly.
"Boss, name your price. If I can afford it, I'll take it."
Ye Tian spoke directly without waiting for the boss to speak.
"Boss, I'll offer ten million spirit stones for this small grade-three spiritual herb. Are you willing?"
The shop owner glanced at Ye Tian with a troubled expression, then shook his head.
“Young Master Ye, although this is a third-grade spiritual herb, it has unique effects. Moreover, my shop never uses spirit stones for purchases; we only barter. So, I wonder what treasures Young Master Ye can offer?”
"A sixth-grade pill, the Lesser Divine Power Pill? Or a seventh-grade pill, the Greater Healing Pill?"
Just as Ye Tian was still hesitating, Lin Xiao spoke up.
"Ten liters of ten-thousand-year-old spiritual essence, would you be willing?"
The shop owner was quite surprised to hear that Lin Xiao was willing to offer so much ten-thousand-year-old spiritual liquid in exchange for this small True Dragon Grass.
He hesitated for a moment as he looked at the spiritual herb in his hand.
He didn't recognize the medicinal herb, but seeing Ye Tian and Lin Xiao fighting over it so fiercely, he felt a pang of regret.
However, if he regrets it now, he will definitely offend both sides.
The Heavenly Evolution Holy Land and the Ye family are forces he cannot afford to offend.
It's better to offend only one than two.
After thinking for a while, the shop owner still felt that it was more worthwhile to exchange this spiritual herb for the Ten Thousand Year Spiritual Liquid, so he handed the True Dragon Grass to Lin Xiao.
“Lin Zhenchuan, it’s settled, ten liters, cash on delivery.”
The shop owner was very enthusiastic. After all, he had known about the effects of the Ten Thousand Year Spirit Elixir for a long time. If he could fully absorb it, he would definitely be able to break through his cultivation level and improve his aptitude.
Lin Xiao quickly completed the transaction, while Ye Tian could only watch helplessly from the sidelines.
"Senior Brother Lin, you have a good eye. This thing is no ordinary item."
After Lin Xiao returned to his original position, Lin Fan walked over and said with an envious look on his face.
"Oh? Junior Brother Lin, you know about this?" Lin Xiao asked curiously.
To be honest, he was curious to know how Lin Fan had sensed that the True Dragon Grass was a treasure.
"I don't understand, but I feel like this is a good thing."
"Senior Brother Lin, you have to trust me. My intuition is always right. I've managed to snag a bargain many times!" Lin Fan said proudly.
Wang Ziyue and Shi Miaoyin, who were standing beside him, also praised him.
"Junior Brother Lin Xiao, don't underestimate Xiao Fan just because his cultivation level isn't high. He has an extremely keen sense for treasures."
Sometimes when we go out, we take Xiaofan with us, so we always manage to find something good to bring back.
"Yes, Senior Brother Lin Xiao, Brother Lin Fan is really amazing."
Hearing their words, Lin Xiao couldn't help but feel a sense of guilt.
Seeing the opportunity that should have belonged to Lin Fan fall into his own hands, he felt incredibly guilty.
"Forget it, I won't think about it anymore. I'll compensate him later if I have something to offer."
Lin Xiao murmured to himself, and then felt the guilt in his heart lessen considerably.
Then he looked at the True Dragon Grass in his hand.
[True Dragon Grass: A third-grade spiritual herb. First, it slightly increases one's Qi and blood, and provides a trace of dragon energy to temper the body. Second, it can resonate with True Dragon Treasure Medicine.]
With just one simple sentence, Lin Xiao understood the effects of the True Dragon Grass, and then put it away.
The opportunities he is currently pursuing are all within the Tiannan Secret Realm; there are no more opportunities for him to seize in Tiannan City.
Even though he saw many people's profiles and encountered many opportunities along the way, he remained unmoved.
After all, those are just chance encounters for ordinary people; they might pick up a spirit stone or obtain a first-grade spiritual medicine.
With his current level of cultivation, these things are no longer of any interest to him.
As Lin Xiao walked away, Ye Tian behind him looked at Lin Xiao with a gloomy expression.
"Once we enter the secret realm, I will make you regret this!"
After Ye Tian finished speaking, feeling the mocking gazes falling on him, he turned and left without hesitation.
... ... ...
Meanwhile, in another location within Tiannan City.
A woman dressed in a red phoenix robe sat in the main seat. Her expression was cold and aloof, and she exuded a chilling aura.
On her shoulder stood a fire phoenix formed from spiritual energy.
This person was none other than Xiao Yanran, who had awakened from a coma several days prior.
No, to be more precise, her current name is Xiao Fenghuang.
Standing beside her was a man, Xiao Yun, the current patriarch of the Xiao family, and also Xiao Yanran's father.
“Yanran… ” Xiao Yun just opened his mouth to speak.
But Xiao Fenghuang's icy expression grew even colder.
"Clan Chief Xiao, Xiao Yanran is not here. Do you understand?"
Upon hearing this, Xiao Yun was filled with rage, but seeing the old ancestors sitting silently around him, he had no choice but to suppress his anger.
"Xiao, Ancestor Xiao!" Xiao Yun used almost all his strength to finish saying this.
