Falling in Love to Escape the Original Book Plot [BL]-Chapter 164: Preparing a Gift
Chapter 164: Preparing a Gift
The four nascent soul realm cultivators couldn’t help but be shocked.
Although cultivators didn’t discriminate against same-sex relationships, it was still rare to encounter a female-female couple.
"What’s the use of two women being Taoist companions?" One of the four said, his eyes filled with disdain.
"Does our relationship have anything to do with you?" Shen Xu sneered and directly pulled Zhen Yuan to walk away from the four.
However, young master Song was unwilling to let them go.
"Let’s go shopping after we have a meal together." He said in a matter-of-fact voice.
Unfortunately, Zhen Yuan and Shen Xu didn’t eat his set. ƒree𝑤ebnσvel.com
"Let’s go." Zhen Yua said, and the two continued walking.
Seeing this, Song Wanzhang gritted his teeth and clenched his hands in anger.
"Young master..." One of the four called in a hesitant voice.
"Follow them. I don’t believe I can’t get what I want." Song Wanzhang said, his eyes narrowed into slits.
Twenty metres ahead, Zhen Yuan and Shen Xu held hands and leisurely walked forward.
[They are following us.] Zhen Yuan said.
[As expected, beauty is the root of all evil.] Shen Xu sighed with a frustrated expression.
[Don’t worry. We can easily lose them.]
[How?]
[Follow me.] Zhen Yuan said, walking towards a random inn.
"Welcome. What kind of room do you want?" The innkeeper asked when he saw them.
"What kinds of rooms do you have?"
"We have four types of rooms. The first type is an ordinary room without a protective formation or other additions. The second type is an advanced room with a level two protective formation. The third has a level two protective formation and a level two qi gathering formation. Finally, the fourth is a courtyard room with a level three protective formation and a level three qi gathering formation. Which room do you want?"
"We want the fourth type. What’s the cost?"
"Ten thousand spirit stones per day. How long will you stay?"
"We will stay for one month." Zhen Yuan said and quickly continued.
"My wife and I want to retreat. Give us the most remote courtyard room." He said and removed three hundred thousand spirit stones from his space ring.
"Good. Good. Good." The innkeeper happily smiled.
After that, he arranged everything for the two and gave them the room key.
"Please enjoy your stay." He said, and Zhen Yuan nodded before he and Shen Xu went to the courtyard room.
After entering the room, Zhen Yuan activated the formations, and a white protective cover enveloped the courtyard.
"What are you planning?" Shen Xu asked.
"Wait and see." Zhen Yuan smiled, and a trace of murderous intent flashed in his eyes.
A moment later, he removed a batch of talismans from his space ring.
"These are..." Shen Xu trailed, and a trace of enlightenment flashed in his eyes.
After the space was upgraded, the Seven-leaf fir grass aged a lot.
As a result, Zhen Yuan could refine level four talisman papers.
Although he didn’t have level four rune liquid, his soul power was enough to compensate when refining level four talismans and inscriptions.
"I support you." Shen Xu suddenly said, nodding in approval.
"Do you know what I want to do?"
"Aren’t you preparing a surprise for those conceited bastards?" The double asked, and Zhen Yuan chuckled.
Soon after, he embedded some rebound and other talismans onto the room’s protective formation.
That way, anyone who tried to forcibly break the formation would encounter a fatal disaster.
"It’s done." Zhen Yuan said, turning to look at Shen Xu.
"Let’s change our appearance and clothes before we leave." He said, and Shen Xu nodded.
Fortunately, their luck was good this time around.
Zhen Yuan turned into an ordinary-looking young man, and Shen Xu became a plump middle-aged uncle.
After ensuring everything was in place, Zhen Yuan activated a teleportation talisman, and the two soon disappeared.
Less than a breath later, they appeared at the edge of Dragon City’s market.
"Shall we look around?" Shen Xu excitedly asked.
"Good." Zhen Yuan agreed.
The two wandered from one area to the next.
After many years of collecting, they had most of the common herbs in the Canglan continent.
However, occasionally, they would still encounter a herb they didn’t have.
When that happened, they bought the herbs, intending to replant them in the space.
In this way, Shen Xu and Zhen Yuan visited the herb market and monster market before they finally arrived at the ore market.
"I don’t know if I can find a good ore." Shen Xu said and began looking around.
However, he was disappointed.
Although there were many ores in the market, most were common and low-level.
[You will need a lot of common ore to practice now that we have the simulation room.] Zhen Yuan reminded, and the double’s eyes immediately lit up.
[You are right.] He said.
After that, Shen Xu and Zhen Yuan went on a shopping bender.
They bought tonnes of common ores regardless of their level.
After all, the space provided an almost endless supply of spirit grasses but the same could not be said for refining ores.
Once the ores were used, they needed to be bought again.
[It’s not a loss.] Shen Xu said, and Zhen Yuan nodded.
Even if Shen Xu refined thousands of weapons, the goods could later be sold in the Tianqi continent.
[It would be good if we could get some mid-grade spirit stones before we reach Tianqi continent.] Shen Xu said with a thoughtful expression.
[We can try to trade with the cultivators from the Tainqi continent.] Zhen Yuan suggested, and Shen Xu nodded, but he wasn’t optimistic.
After all, the Tianqi cultivators had been in the Canglan continent for several months.
Based on the concept of leaving the good things for oneself, wouldn’t they trade using low-grade spirit stones instead of mid-grade spirit stones?
[Don’t worry too much. We will always find a way.] Zhen Yuan smiled, rubbing his wife’s hair.
"You are right." The double said and visibly relaxed.
At the same time, he held Zhen Yuan’s arm, wanting to walk forward.
However, Zhen Yuan didn’t move.
