Chapter 121 Su Yao is here
Su Yu tapped it again, a rare gentle smile playing on her lips:
Su Yao is currently hiding her true strength. On the surface, she has the cultivation of the peak of the Nascent Soul stage, but in reality, she has already reached the late stage of the Deity Transformation stage and is capable of fighting against someone in the early stage of the Void Refinement stage.
She only began cultivating when her soul returned to its original body at the age of nineteen.
In the Central Spirit Realm, powerful beings at the Void Refinement stage would not appear in the underground arena competition.
Having made her decision, Su Yu entrusted the matter to Shen Qi. The Ghost Market with the Meteorite Crimson Crystal as the prize was set in Fan Su Ghost Market. From Nan Du Academy, where Su Yao was located, there was a teleportation array connecting Nan Du City and Fan Su City. A round trip would only take half a day, and the remaining time would be enough for Su Yao to compete and win the prize. In case something happened at the academy, she would still have time to rush back.
Meanwhile, Su Yao, who was at Nandu Academy, felt that she had reached her limit in the special training room and came out. Because of the series of events that had happened earlier, she now had enough academy points to squander at will.
After leaving the special training room, she thought about improving her natal magic weapon and refining more pills to prepare for the Journey Competition three months later.
She has now found her parents, but her brother Su Yu is still missing. Even her parents, who have been in the Central Spirit Realm for so many years, have not found anyone who resembles Su Yu.
But she also learned from the Su family that Su Yu had gone on a dangerous mission to find traces of her parents and had disappeared unexpectedly.
If she couldn't find him in the Middle Spirit Realm, she would go to the Upper Spirit Realm to check. In short, if Su Yu here really was her brother, she wouldn't believe he would just die like that!
...We can't just lose both of our brothers from different worlds, can we? That's just cruel of fate.
Su Yao's thoughts were a jumbled mess, but she was determined to get the qualification to go to the Upper Spirit Realm through the competition.
She learned about this from her master. Of course, her master didn't say it explicitly, but gave her a little hint, and she figured it out herself.
She went out and strolled through the commercial streets of Nandu City outside the academy several times to buy materials. She found that she was still missing some rare crystals to upgrade her natal magic weapon, so she put on her mask and wandered to the Ghost Market.
Once inside the ghost market, she didn't search for what she needed at each stall like the other casual shoppers. Instead, she used the jade token in her hand to enter the VIP room.
Su Yao had already used her alchemy skills to gain benefits from the Ghost Market and establish cooperative relationships when she was in the lower spirit world.
So, not long after Su Yao sat down, there was a knock on the door of the VIP room, and a baby-faced young man with freckles entered. He was the waiter who had the most contact with Su Yao in the Ghost Market.
"Good afternoon, Miss Mu. Is there any big business opportunity this time?"
Su Yao, using her false identity as Miss Mu, snorted and said, "Where do you get so many big deals? You've already made quite a bit of money from those improved pill formulas I gave you before, haven't you?"
“What are you saying?” the baby-faced man chuckled, brushing it off. “So, what does Miss Mu want this time?”
Su Yao was prepared and took out her super long list from her storage ring: "It's not much, just these. Name your price."
It's rare for her to go on a big shopping spree. This list includes various crystal materials that Su Yao needs but hasn't found yet for her natal magic weapon, the Huanhai Blade, as well as spiritual plants needed for refining various pills, and some materials that her friends need. Basically, everything is here.
"Make sure you find all the materials needed for refining the weapon. The rest isn't urgent; take your time."
Anyway, it seems that there are also ghost markets in the Upper Spirit Realm, so trading can continue even after leaving the Middle Spirit Realm.
The baby-faced smile froze for a moment, a familiar sense of collapse creeping in: "These... I'll go find a few more people to calculate the prices."
"Okay, you guys go ahead, I'll go take a look around downstairs and be back in an hour." Su Yao calmly stood up, giving the accounting staff plenty of space.
"Okay, please..." After seeing the customer off in despair, the baby-faced man immediately bombarded his colleagues with a communication stone.
Who! Anyone who's free, come over here and settle the score with him!!
Having delegated the task of finding materials to the Ghost Market, Su Yao hummed a little tune as she went downstairs. She was going out to buy some gifts for Xiao Jun and her parents, and she would also like to stroll through the shopping street again. Xiao Jun liked those jewelry pieces that looked simple but were actually quite flashy upon closer inspection.
An hour later, Su Yao returned with a full load of goods. The Ghost Market had also settled the accounts and informed Su Yao of any rare resources that were not currently available in the Ghost Market.
Of course, this information also comes at a price, except for one piece of information about meteorite red crystals.
"The Great Ghost Market in Fansu City is currently holding a tournament, and the first prize is the Meteorite Crimson Crystal. If Miss Mu is interested, you can go and take a look."
Su Yao: Although the academy implemented a curfew after the special training began...
But it's okay, haha, Meteorite Crystal is here!
When she returned to the academy, she asked Xiao Jun to cover for her. These kinds of things are easy to get used to after a few tries.
You Fujun, who had just returned to her dormitory courtyard after finishing her training, was suddenly struck by the devastating news: ...
She calmly raised an objection: "Your aunt and uncle might come to see you."
Su Yao said cheerfully, "Just tell them I'm working hard to improve my skills to prepare for the competition."
Fighting in underground arenas isn't considered a form of real combat, and forging swords with meteorite crystals isn't considered enhancing one's strength.
You Fujun:......
As expected of the main character, his smile is so infectious.
She remained steadfast in her determination and said, "We still have training to do, so you can only go in your spare time and won't get enough rest."
Su Yao replied matter-of-factly, "You've already rested while meditating, so you won't have any problems resting."
You Fujun fell silent.
Seeing this, Su Yao pressed on, swaying You Fujun's arm: "Please, Xiaojun, help me out. If I don't get the Meteorite Crystal this time, I don't know when my Huanhai will be able to upgrade. Look, I also brought you a gift. It's the latest hairpin and shawl from the shopping street. I picked them out specially. See if you like them."
You Fujun took a deep breath and blurted out for the umpteenth time, "This time it's really true, there won't be a next time."
"Yay! I knew Xiao Jun was the best!" Su Yao cheered instantly, and didn't forget to put the hairpin on You Fujun's head.
You Fujun is a wood elementalist. Due to the protagonist's need for extensive cover, she developed a new skill of using vines and branches to create dummies. She even learned some matching illusion magic, making it impossible for most people to see through her dummy disguise.
Su Yao, unaware of what was happening, was waiting for her to be lured here by the Meteorite Crystal.
The time spent waiting was a bit boring, so Su Yu decided to teach Qiu Yin how to cultivate. After all, Qiu Yin had lost his human bloodline and become a demon, so it was better for Su Yu, a pure demon for many years, to teach him than for Shen Qi, a pure human.
At this moment, Qiu Yin had successfully drawn the demon into his body and was diligently cultivating in the meditation room inscribed with the demon-gathering array.
Su Yu, who had just sent the demon inside, turned and left, twirling the spirit-transferring bracelet he had prepared for Qiu Yin in his hand, with Shen Qi following behind him.
"Ghost Lord, what are your plans for this child, Qiu Yin?"
"If you train him well, he might become a leader someday," Su Yu said casually. "You seem quite concerned about him?"
