Chapter 136 Is this a deliberate prank on her?
"Once you've chosen a suitable sect, please inform me through Divine Notice. Do not reveal our relationship on a daily basis.
Also, you must pay close attention to what's happening with the Liuli Sect. If anything happens, please contact me using your magical powers."
After saying that, Gao Huohuo reached out and took Wang Lei's magical weapon. With her slender fingers, she operated it nimbly and handed it back after some operations.
"Alright, from now on, even if this magical power is accidentally stolen, no one else will be able to spy on the confidential information within it."
While handing over the magical powers, Gao Huohuo took out some pills and handed them to Wang Lei.
He said, "Take these and do your work well."
"Thank you for the reward, sir. I'll take my leave now!"
Wang Lei was filled with gratitude. He took the pill and the magical power, bowed and left.
After Wang Lei left, Gao Huohuo planned to go to the nearby Wanbao Tower to find Xie Feng to buy a handy weapon to give to Chen Wan'er for self-defense.
She first used her magical powers to communicate with Xie Feng and asked him some questions, then went straight to the nearest Wanbaolou branch.
After entering the store, Gao Huohuo glanced inside and asked the waiter:
"Excuse me, is your shopkeeper here?"
The shop assistant looked up and saw that she was only at the fifth level of the Golden Core Realm.
He secretly estimated in his heart that such an ordinary monk could not buy any valuable items, so he did not take her words to heart.
He casually replied, "My fellow Taoist, what would you like to buy? I can help you with it, no need to bother the shopkeeper."
Gao Huohuo felt helpless when he saw this, thinking that it didn't matter who provided the service when buying things.
However, Xie Feng had specifically reminded him in his magical powers that when he arrived, he must go directly to the shopkeeper.
Thinking of this, she still said patiently:
"I want to buy a weapon with strong attack power. Do you have any recommendations?"
When the waiter heard this, he hurriedly led her to the second floor and introduced her with a smile:
"My fellow Daoist, the weapons on display on the second floor are all of our store's top-quality weapons. Please take your time to choose."
Gao Huohuo paced along the second floor, inspecting each weapon, but after a round, he didn't find what he liked.
She was unwilling to give up and kept asking, "Are there any other better ones?"
The waiter looked embarrassed and hesitated for a moment before he stammered:
"Yes, there are some on the third floor... However, the collections on the third floor are all specially prepared for high-level cultivators above the Nascent Soul stage. With your level..."
The implication seems to be that she is not qualified to get involved.
Gao Huohuo sneered in his heart. Buying something actually had to be divided into different levels. No wonder Xie Feng specifically asked him to find the shopkeeper.
While I was thinking about it, I suddenly saw a male monk in colorful clothes, walking up the stairs to the third floor surrounded by other people.
Gao Huohuo was sharp-eyed. Seeing that the cultivator was only at the Golden Core level, he couldn't help but blurt out:
"Hey, isn't he only at the first level of Jindan? How can he get up there?"
The monk heard the sound and came over. Standing halfway up the stairs, he turned around and cast a contemptuous look at Gao Huohuo.
The corners of his mouth rose, and he sneered: "Humph, that's because my father is the city lord, so there is no place in this city that I can't go?
Not to mention the third floor of Wanbao Tower, even the head of Wanbao Tower would have to show some courtesy to me when he saw me.”
Gao Huohuo frowned slightly when he heard this, and said sarcastically:
"You are the first person I have ever seen who can speak so righteously about taking advantage of others' power.
From what I see, your father has more than one son, right?"
When the monk heard this, he strode down the stairs, walked up to Gao Huohuo, and looked her up and down.
Then he said, "Why, are you also my father's illegitimate daughter? But you don't look like it!"
When Gao Huohuo heard this, he keenly caught the word "also". His heart moved and he raised his eyebrows sarcastically:
"Oh, after all this time, it turns out you're still a concubine's son. Just based on this status, why are you so arrogant?"
The monk shrugged and said, "I don't care.
"My mother devoted herself to my father and sacrificed so much. If I don't act a little more arrogant, wouldn't I be letting her down?"
When Gao Huohuo heard this, he felt that his twisted logic was quite irrefutable.
"Waiter," the flamboyant Young Master Tang raised his chin slightly and glanced at Gao Huohuo.
He said loudly to the waiter, "This female cultivator is my half-sister. I want to take her to the third floor for a stroll. Is that okay with you?"
The guy's face was instantly filled with a flattering smile, and he nodded and bowed hurriedly:
"Master Tang, since you've already asked, I'm absolutely willing to do it. There's no problem at all."
"Let's go," Young Master Tang turned to look at Gao Huohuo with a faint smile on his face.
"Don't you want to go to the third floor? I'll take you up there."
Gao Huohuo was full of suspicion. How could this guy, who looked down on her with disdain just a moment ago, change his temperament so drastically in the blink of an eye?
However, how could Gao Huohuo be afraid of a mere son of a city lord?
She originally wanted to put this Young Master Tang on the list, but she didn't know that he had no intention of killing her at all.
Since we are here, we might as well make the best of it. Gao Huohuo followed him up to the third floor.
As soon as he entered, his eyes scanned among the various weapons like torches, trying to find one that suits him.
Swords? Too common, found everywhere.
Whip? No, they can't both use the same one.
Hey, those two big hammers placed in the corner are quite eye-catching!
Coincidentally, she also practiced the art of body training, so controlling such a heavy weapon was no problem for her.
Gao Huohuo walked forward, reached out to grasp the hammer handle, tried to weigh it a few times, and found that the weight was just right.
What's even more interesting is that I heard that once these two big hammers recognize the owner and sign the contract, they can automatically fly back to the hand after being thrown out, which is really convenient.
However, she did not express her intention to buy it on the spot, after all, there were so many eyes watching her.
So she pretended to be interested and picked up a few weapons to practice with.
He would make sounds of praise from time to time, as if he was carefully selecting.
After being asked about the price, Gao Huohuo frowned slightly, looked embarrassed, and acted as if he was short of money and unable to pay.
He shook his head and sighed as he put the weapon down: "Alas, it's too expensive. I really can't afford it."
"If you like these," Young Master Tang came closer with a playful look on his face, "I can buy them for you."
Gao Huohuo became alert instantly when he heard this.
What is this about?
It would be fine if he just brought her up, but now he wants to buy weapons for her. Could it be that he has taken a fancy to her?
Thinking of this, Gao Huohuo felt a chill in his heart and secretly complained:
This beast, she is only fourteen years old now, and he, an old man in his seventies, can actually eat her?
Although the world of immortal cultivation does not discriminate based on age, Gao Huohuo does not like his type.
"No need," Gao Huohuo said stiffly, not appreciating it at all. "I buy my own things myself."
"Waiter," Master Tang shouted to the waiter as if he hadn't heard anything, "Pack up all the things she just tried."
Seeing this, Gao Huohuo thought to herself: Oh no! She had been planning to let Chen Wan'er seize the opportunity and come to buy it herself.
Now that’s great, even the two hammers that Chen Wan’er loved will be packed up and taken away. What will she use then?
Is this Young Master Tang deliberately acting like a domineering CEO in front of her?
"I said, you don't have to buy it." Gao Huohuo emphasized his tone, his eyes full of displeasure.
Young Master Tang, however, looked very pleased with himself, with a sly smile on his face: "Don't worry, I didn't buy it for you! I bought it myself and took it home to play with."
When Gao Huohuo heard this, he was so angry that he almost stomped his feet. Without saying a word, he turned around and left.
Okay, you dare to play this trick on her. Since soft tactics don’t work, she’ll use hard tactics!
Wait until it gets dark and then just rob them.
After leaving the shop, Gao Huohuo turned the corner and while no one was paying attention, he quickly took out an invisibility talisman from his storage bag and gently stuck it on his body.
She hid in the dark, staring at the gate of Wanbao Tower, waiting for Young Master Tang to come out.
Who knew that after waiting for a long time, Young Master Tang walked out empty-handed, without taking anything.
Seeing this, Gao Huohuo couldn't help but widen her eyes, full of suspicion: Is he deliberately playing a trick on her?
