In the competition for food, she couldn't compete with a woman of striking beauty.
After finishing his meal and refining the spiritual energy, the immortal was completely satisfied.
The spiritual energy from this meal is equivalent to three or four days of her cultivation.
"If only I could eat like this every day, every meal," Shenxian'er said, rubbing her belly.
“25 spirit stones per meal, even if you eat three meals a day, that’s 2250 spirit stones a month. Even Foundation Establishment cultivators wouldn’t dare to eat like that!” Xu Ni said.
"Nizi, you're really good at math."
"...Is that the point? I'm saying you're greedy!"
"Alright, if only I had a spirit stone mine." Shen Xian'er had no choice but to lower her standards.
"Hahahaha!" Jiang Xiaoyue laughed loudly.
Xu Ni found it both funny and infuriating, so she blew her bangs back.
The three chatted for a while. They usually stayed in the underwater cave, some refining pills and others cultivating. It was a rare opportunity to come out, and they all wanted to relax.
Xu Ni even recited a poem while looking out at Wangyue Lake, which won a round of applause. She was so proud that she clasped her hands in a fist and bowed repeatedly, saying, "Please excuse my poor performance."
Seeing that it was almost time, the three of them left the restaurant.
As soon as they got downstairs, they saw the restaurant owner stop them at the entrance.
In the crowd, Leng Ningting, who had previously bought the gold net and taken Xu Ni's undergarment, was stopped by a waiter while accompanied by a servant.
"Young Master Leng," the waiter said with a humble smile.
"What, can't I go in?" Leng Ningting said coldly.
"Young Master Leng, please don't make things difficult for me. I have no other choice," the waiter said.
Leng Ningting suddenly erupted in fury: "My father just died!"
The waiter hesitated and said, "Young Master Leng, please forgive my bluntness, but even if someone has just died, they are still dead."
"You!" Leng Ningting's eyes were bloodshot.
The three of them didn't go out until the waiter had dismissed Leng Ningting.
"What's going on?" Xu Ni slipped a spirit crystal to the waiter.
"Thank you, sir!" the waiter said, clasping his hands in thanks.
Then he explained in a low voice: "The Leng family patriarch died a few days ago. Now the Leng family is being watched by various families, and no one dares to take their spirit stones. Although these spirit stones are still in the hands of the Leng family, they are actually the assets of other Foundation Establishment families."
As the three left the shop, they couldn't help but sigh deeply.
When Shenxian thought of Leng Ningting's high-spirited appearance a month ago, she felt a little scared.
To the Leng family, wasn't the Leng family patriarch just like a deity to her?
If one day, the deity departs, will I and the Three Sisters Market also fall into such a state?
Her whole body tensed up, as if the protective array around her robes had failed and shrunk.
The three of them went to the herbal medicine shop.
I bought materials for 50 Qi Gathering Pills, 9 spirit stones for 10 portions, totaling 45 spirit stones; I also bought materials for 20 Qi Nourishing Pills, 11 spirit stones for 10 portions, totaling 22 spirit stones.
Then he went to the medicine shop and bought six bottles of Qi Nourishing Pills (60, no discount), six bottles of Spirit Recovery Pills (60, discounted to 55), and six bottles of Life-Generating Pills (60, discounted to 55), totaling 170 spirit stones.
Jiang Xiaoyue bought two bottles of Rejuvenation Pills, Xu Ni bought three bottles of Demon Pills, and Shen Xian'er bought six bottles of Qi Nourishing Pills.
At the Spirit Healer's Clinic, I bought thirty sticks of top-grade Mind-Concentrating Incense, which cost thirty spirit stones.
Shenxian'er bought ten more sticks of calming incense.
They went to the spirit food shop again and bought spirit rice, spirit vegetables, spirit tea, spirit fruit, and monster meat, totaling 60 spirit stones. Each person's monthly quota is 20 spirit stones.
Shenxian'er also bought several books, totaling 10 spirit stones.
Xu Ni also secretly bought a few copies.
"I'll lend it to you after I've finished reading it," Xu Ni said generously.
"Go away!" Jiang Xiaoyue said irritably.
I'm a little embarrassed, but I'm also looking forward to it.
Finally, there's the religious artifact shop.
"What kind of magical artifacts would you like, gentlemen?" the shopkeeper asked as he approached.
"Fishing." Xu Ni was in charge of all the business negotiations.
"Oh, what a coincidence, I just acquired one not long ago." The shopkeeper took out a gold net. "The materials from Shuijinfang are excellent, and the array is more than enough to attract fish."
Xu Ni realized, "This isn't Leng Ningting..."
She stopped mid-sentence.
The shopkeeper glanced at her and smiled, "That's right, this is exactly what Young Master Leng sold to me. But please rest assured, when I bought this item, the Leng family patriarch was still alive. That's why I had no choice but to accept Leng Ningting's offer of 120 spirit stones."
When Leng Ningting forcibly bought the Golden Net, he used 100 spirit stones, and then, relying on his status as a Foundation Establishment child, he forcibly sold it for another 120 spirit stones.
It can be said that our current predicament is a natural consequence of karma.
“120 yuan? We can’t afford that.” Xu Ni shook her head.
"No need, no need, this gold net isn't worth 120 yuan, you can take it for 100 yuan!" the shopkeeper said generously.
Xu Ni laughed: "Shopkeeper, are you worried about losing money or even having it bought up by other Foundation Establishment families?"
The shopkeeper wasn't embarrassed. He clasped his hands in greeting and said, "So you know your stuff. Alright, if the three of you buy another magic artifact, the Golden Net will only cost 95 spirit stones. How about that?"
80.
"That depends on what magical artifacts the three of you buy."
Xu Ni turned to look at Shen Xian'er: "Xian'er, didn't you say you wanted to buy a magical artifact?"
The fairy nodded.
"Xian'er, what a beautiful name!" Beneath her beautiful face, the shopkeeper's smile became a little more sincere. "Fellow Daoist Xian'er, have you decided what kind of magical artifact you want to buy?"
"Is there anything that works against vengeful ghosts?" the fairy asked.
“A vengeful ghost…” the shopkeeper pondered, then suddenly clasped his hands together. “There is one!”
She—the female shopkeeper—made a hand seal, and with a sharp whistle, a streak of light flew out from inside the magic item shop.
The shopkeeper, as if plucking stars, would catch the fleeting light, open his hand, and find a peach pit.
