Chapter 20 The person who picked up the bargain said he was familiar, but also strange...
The visitor said that he was familiar, but also that he was unfamiliar, as if it was the first time he had seen him.
Because that was the body she was supposed to travel through, but it was snatched away by the book-traveling girl.
That’s right, it was Wan Moxiao, the legitimate daughter of the Wan family’s side branch. She also had another identity: the fiancée of Lei Xiao, the young master of the Lei family, and the ex-sister-in-law of the male protagonist Lei Hong.
Xu Hui carefully looked at the body that she had regretfully missed. She had a beautiful face, a delicate figure, bright eyes and white teeth, and was more beautiful than a flower.
She was dressed in gorgeous clothes that shone brightly. From a distance, she looked like a fairy who had fallen to the earth and was not affected by worldly affairs.
But those clear and curious eyes showed some of the girl's cuteness and liveliness. When she saw interesting food, she smiled and had shallow dimples at the corners of her mouth, which made her look delicate and sweet.
What a sweet little girl!
Xu Hui admired in her heart that it looked much better than her current body.
After losing her dark skin and gaining some flesh, Xu Hui looks pretty good. She is a cute little girl now and will be a beauty when she grows up. But compared with Zhong Xinyue, Zhong Lingyue, and the girl who traveled through the book in front of her, she is inferior.
She is a natural beauty, and those three are the most stunning beauties in the world.
Xu Hui was a little envious. After all, who doesn’t want to look good? But that was all.
So she just took a quick look and then looked away.
The man next to Wan Moxiao was tall and handsome, and he was wearing the unique school uniform of the Lei family. It was a robe painted with thunder patterns. It was purple in color, and the patterns on it were shining and colorful. It was a very good defensive magic weapon.
Following behind him were many disciples of the Lei family, each with extraordinary cultivation. I guess he must be Lei Xiao, the young master of the Lei family.
Although she had never seen Lei Hong, and had waited for Wei Mubai to take him away before going to the Evil Cultivator's Cave, she also knew that it was impossible for him to become a Jindan stage cultivator in such a short time.
Therefore, this is undoubtedly Lei Xiao!
The strange thing is that this is near the Wei family’s residence, so why are they here?
If you want to shop, go to the Wei family store on the main road. They have all kinds of elixirs. There is no need to go to this small Taoist stall where only some low-level monks set up shop.
Xu Hui was quite puzzled. Seeing that others were looking at her curiously, she moved and stood in the corner to observe.
Lei Xiao seemed to be here with Wan Moxiao. He didn't lean over to look at the goods on the stall, but waited patiently for Wan Moxiao to choose.
Seeing that she liked them, I bought them one by one.
With their extraordinary looks and a group of people around them, they were naturally the focus of the crowd, but no one dared to disturb them.
Wan Moxiao walked along the way and finally came to a stall selling formation plates.
She seemed very interested. She squatted down and slowly selected them. As she did so, she asked, "Did you make this? You have good craftsmanship."
The stall owner didn't expect her to appreciate it, so he enthusiastically tried to sell it to her. "Yes, yes, yes, senior, look at this defensive array. Although it can only defend against attacks from cultivators in the Qi Refining Stage, it has a function. It absorbs spiritual energy and continuously supplies it to the array, saving a lot of spiritual stones. And this one has a counterattack array. No matter what kind of magic power is directed at it, half of it will be returned. Of course, it's also low-level."
"What a clever idea," Wan Moxiao smiled. "Do you have a spirit gathering array? I'd like to use it when I practice to increase the concentration of spiritual energy around me."
"Yes, yes, yes. Look at these four, they are all of this type. This one is made of crystal and can increase the concentration of spiritual energy by 50%. Such arrays are rare and can be used in the Foundation Establishment Stage. And these three can increase the spiritual power by a full double, but they can only be used in the Qi Refining Stage." Although the stall owner had a regretful tone, his expression was full of pride.
"Did you make all of these?" Wan Moxiao asked with a smile.
"Of course not," the stall owner said embarrassedly, "they are all handed down from our ancestors."
Wan Moxiao's eyes lit up, "How many spirit stones?"
"The one that can be used in the Foundation Establishment Stage costs 20,000 low-grade spirit stones, and the rest cost 10,000 each. Which one do you want?" the stall owner asked attentively.
Wan Moxiao was circling around the four formation plates, unable to make a decision.
Seeing this, Xu Hui finally understood what she wanted to do.
The book mentions that the heroine Zhong Xinyue bought a spirit gathering array plate - the Liangyi Array in the market near the Wei family. It not only doubles the speed of cultivation, but can also be refined and upgraded, and its power increases with her level.
This is a big treasure. It’s okay if it’s at a low level, as there is enough spiritual power around.
Once your cultivation level is improved, the concentration of spiritual energy in your body will be twice that of other people every time you practice. Isn't the speed of cultivation faster? It's twice the result with half the effort. No wonder the heroine can ascend to heaven in a thousand years. She really has too many cheats on her.
The Liangyi Formation Plate is the divine weapon that she can use from beginning to end.
Wan Moxiao has read that novel and seems to be envious of the heroine's luck. If he can't get the spiritual field space, he can still snatch the Liangyi Formation.
This array plate was left by the cultivator's ancestors. He didn't know how powerful it was, so he kept it a secret and, when sorting things out, he naturally thought of it as an ordinary spirit-gathering array plate.
There are arrays like this that can absorb spiritual energy to help with cultivation everywhere. They are useful for low-level cultivators, but have little effect on those above the Jindan stage. The Liangyi Array is an exception, and it is also a powerful weapon.
Those who don’t have the opportunity will never get it.
And now, Wan Moxiao has revealed it in advance, as if he wants to snatch away this opportunity.
Just as I thought of this, I turned around and saw two figures appear at the street corner. They were the heroine Zhong Xinyue and the supporting actress Zhong Lingyue, attracting everyone's attention and standing out from the crowd.
Here it comes, the battle for opportunity has begun, who will be the final winner?
Xu Hui was curious, her eyes bright as she waited to watch the show.
However, Wan Moxiao was more decisive than she had imagined. Noticing the approach of the heroine and the female supporting actress, he immediately put all the array plates into his storage bracelet. "Forget it, I can't choose. I'll buy them all. Anyway, the extra ones can be given away. Boss, here are 50,000 low-grade spirit stones."
She also bought the formation plate that can be used in the foundation-building stage, for fear of missing the opportunity. After all, who knows if the plot will be so stubborn that the good things must be left to the heroine.
Lei Xiao had no objection to this. Those formation plates were indeed ingenious, and if they were not needed, they could be given to the younger disciples.
The stall owner was so happy that he couldn't stop smiling. He quickly collected the spirit stones and introduced other formation plates.
Wan Moxiao listened in a disjointed manner, but in fact all his attention was on the female lead Zhong Xinyue and the supporting female role Zhong Lingyue.
At this moment, her heart was beating fast. Although she had clearly secured the opportunity to be the heroine, she still felt it was unreal and kept replaying the plot of the novel in her mind.
There was no way. She had read the book and knew how lucky Zhong Xinyue was and how cruel and ruthless Zhong Lingyue was.
As a girl who traveled through time and space in a book, although she had a good family background, higher than both the heroine and the supporting actress, and had good spiritual roots, with a single water spiritual root, she was still an ordinary person before traveling through time and space, and could not be compared with the smart and lucky heroine like Zhong Xinyue, and the reborn supporting actress like Zhong Lingyue.
The other person's methods and schemes can kill her, not to mention that there is a plot inertia involved.
But the story has changed now, right?
Zhong Xinyue did not die, and Zhong Lingyue did not get the good marriage with the Wei family. They entered the Mu family together and became confidants cultivated by the male protagonist Mu Yuan. No matter how you look at it, the development of the plot will be different in the future.
I don’t know who has such great ability that he can make the butterfly effect fan out such a huge hurricane. Now that the two female protagonists are here, there is bound to be a fierce battle.
She is a supporting female character in a male-oriented novel, so it’s better for her not to get involved.
Thinking of this, she secretly glanced at Lei Xiao and wailed in her heart: Oh, what a good candidate for a fiancée, handsome, capable, with a top family background and status, and he is even considerate and caring towards her, without any bad habit of looking down on others as a favored child of heaven.
Why is it the male supporting role?
Damn this loser's counterattack story. Why does the male protagonist have to be an ordinary character and not a chosen one?
She had met the male protagonist Lei Hong. In terms of appearance, demeanor, ability and character, how could he compare to Lei Xiao?
Hey, God is so blind!
Wan Moxiao felt heartbroken when he thought about Lei Xiao’s untimely death after an accident that destroyed his cultivation. He wondered if the plot could be changed to save him?
As long as Lei Xiao is around, Lei Hong will always be an illegitimate child and will never be able to become the young master of the Lei family.
She can also smoothly become the future head lady of the Lei family, enjoy the support of the entire family's resources, and successfully ascend to become an immortal.
Instead of flattering the male protagonist with a bunch of women.
It should be...okay, right? Wan Moxiao encouraged himself in his heart. Since the plot of the female-oriented novel can be changed, the male-oriented novel can also be changed!
Lei Xiao noticed the look his fiancée was giving him, and he lowered his head and smiled slightly, "What's wrong? Don't you have enough spirit stones?"
He took out a storage bag and handed it over, which was full of spirit stones.
Ah, this... Wan Moxiao's heart was pounding. He was good-looking, generous with money, and most importantly, very patient. She had been hesitating here for a long time, but he didn't get impatient at all.
The best, the best. Is she going to miss this best husband and settle for a loser stud?
no!
She secretly swore in her heart that she would never let anything happen to this perfect fiancé.
Is there any way to prevent my fiancé from getting hurt, and to ensure he survives if he gets hurt?
Needless to say, it is of course the opportunity for the protagonists!
Wan Moxiao was thinking rapidly in her mind about which opportunities could be snatched away by her or Lei Xiao. The Yin-Yang Formation was one of them, but it could not guarantee Lei Xiao's safety.
Ah, I got it. Lei Hong obtained a substitute puppet in the early stage, which protected him from a great disaster. If he could get it, Lei Xiao might be able to survive the fatal disaster.
Thinking of this, she couldn't wait to stand up and try to trick Lei Xiao into accompanying her to get the Quinine Cave outside the Immortal City.
That was the game work of Venerable Quinine. He refined and arranged various puppets, which were specially used to train disciples in the Qi training stage.
After completing the trial, you can get various rewards.
This is a gift of teaching from a senior who ascended to become an immortal to the younger generation. The ten major families have no intention of taking it for themselves, so no matter whether they are from a noble family or a casual cultivator, they can enter to take the trial.
Later, it was discovered that the disciples who came out of it had much higher combat effectiveness, and it was considered a very good training ground. Various resources needed for the Qi Refining period were regularly invested into it, including magic tools, elixirs, talismans, etc.
They are all low-level items, and you can only get one reward each time you enter. No one uses this as a supply point, so it has been preserved.
Who could have thought that Venerable Quinin actually placed a priceless substitute puppet inside. No matter how great the damage was, the puppet could take its place once, which was equivalent to having an extra life.
For thousands of years, countless people have entered the Quining Cave for trials, but no one has obtained this opportunity.
Fortunately, Lei Hong was lucky enough to get this great opportunity directly, which gave him the confidence to face any danger he encountered in the future.
Such a good thing is just right to help Lei Xiao survive the disaster!
Wan Moxiao's eyes moved rapidly as he considered how to trick Lei Xiao into accompanying him to the Quining Cave Residence, and how to get the only substitute puppet.
Just as she was daydreaming, Zhong Xinyue and Zhong Lingyue walked past her, paused for a moment, continued walking forward, and stopped in front of a stall.
There were all kinds of things on the stall, including spiritual plants, magic tools, talismans, and everything else, but they were all low-level and low-grade. Logically speaking, Zhong Xinyue was already an inner disciple of the Mu family, and the reward points and spirit stones alone were a huge sum, so she would not look down on these rubbish at all.
However, Zhong Xinyue picked up a formation plate and looked at it carefully.
Wan Mo Xiaoxin suddenly became nervous because the style of the array plate was similar to the one she had just bought, and was basically the same as the Yin-Yang array described in the book.
Could it be that the three she just bought were all fake, and were really still waiting for the heroine Zhong Xinyue to buy them?
But... the book clearly describes that at a stall full of formation plates, the stall owner has been making formation plates since his ancestors. He has ingenuity, but his qualifications are not high and his cultivation level cannot reach high enough, so he can only make low-level formation plates.
When she was doing the transaction just now, she asked the stall owner, and it was exactly the same as what was said in the book.
Then why did the heroine still want to buy that inconspicuous formation plate?
Wan Moxiao felt dizzy. If her method of snatching the opportunity really didn't work, and it belonged to the heroine, and no one could take it away from her, could Lei Xiao still save her?
Lei Xiao saw her face suddenly turn pale and her whole body was shaky, so he quickly supported her and asked, "What's wrong?"
Wan Moxiao's head was buzzing and he shook his head in confusion.
Xu Hui was also confused. She looked at the heroine Zhong Xinyue who was holding the formation plate with a happy face and preparing to pay, and then looked at the girl who traveled through the book, Wan Moxiao. So, who was in control of the Liangyi Formation?
