Chapter 203: Parting Ways
Yun Qianrou followed Su Lingxi out of the Heaven Wind Chamber of Commerce. Su Lingxi did not avoid her when she spoke to President Chu.
She listened in a fog.
But it was certain that Su Lingxi was definitely not just a simple Snowfall Sect disciple.
Su Lingxi felt that there was no need to avoid Yun Qianrou, because they were from two different worlds.
Even if she knew something, she couldn’t intervene.
Su Lingxi sorted out her thoughts. Now she should be waiting for the Heaven Wind auction to open.
She had already found out the time of the auction, which was in three days.
She and Yun Qianrou walked on the street. Yun Qianrou did not dare to speak and disturb Su Lingxi’s thoughts.
Su Lingxi actually already had a clue about obtaining the seventh-grade Yin-Yang Harmony Pill.
At that time, she would try to buy it with money first. If she couldn’t outbid those people from the Black Dragon Sect, she would think of a way to snatch it.
As long as the pill was in hand, she would find a place to hide.
After absorbing the pill and then the Demonic Origin Pearl, her strength would be restored, and running away would definitely not be a problem.
A mere Black Dragon Sect’s search efforts would definitely not be as great as the Canglan imperial family’s.
She could escape from the Canglan imperial family, so there was no need to be afraid of the Black Dragon Sect.
But she had overlooked the most important point.
That was, these actions were based on the premise that she had no worries. But the problem was that Yun Qianrou was following her now.
She had to consider Yun Qianrou in her actions.
The pill had to be obtained, but what about Yun Qianrou?
Should she let her go first?
Su Lingxi walked in front of Yun Qianrou and suddenly stopped.
She turned to look at Yun Qianrou. “I have something to tell you.”
Yun Qianrou was absent-minded and bumped into Su Lingxi. She looked up blankly. “Ah? What does Senior want to say?”
“I’m going to do something dangerous here. It will be troublesome for you to follow me.”
“So, for your safety, I suggest you leave the Eastern Region of Heaven Wind first and go to the Vermilion Bird Divine Nation by yourself.”
“Of course, I definitely won’t be at ease if you go alone. I will try to hire an expert to escort you there.”
Su Lingxi spoke euphemistically. In this way, she would have no worries and could show her skills.
“Is Senior going to leave me behind?”
Yun Qianrou’s eyes were slightly red, and her voice was choked with tears. “I know I’m an ordinary person and can’t help much, but I don’t want to leave Senior. I can be obedient and not drag Senior down.”
Hiss…
Su Lingxi rubbed her forehead. Wasn’t this latching onto her?
Yun Qianrou was pitiful, a girl without strength going to another country to adventure alone.
But did she really have an obligation to take care of her?
To be honest, taking care of her until now was already benevolent and righteous. She didn’t get anything from her.
“Then give me a reason to keep you.”
“I don’t want your things, and I will also find a way to send you to the Vermilion Bird Divine Nation. You just need to stop following me for now.”
“Besides, it’s not that I won’t let you follow me, but I’m going to do something dangerous.”
“If you insist on following me, it will only make us more dangerous.”
Su Lingxi spread her hands. Her words were already very clear.
If Yun Qianrou still didn’t understand, it would be unreasonable.
Yun Qianrou was silent. She had already understood the reasoning.
She clenched her fists tightly, then took a deep breath and let go. “I understand. I’ll leave Senior’s side now.”
“As for the protection of an expert, I don’t need it either.”
“Thank you, Senior, for taking care of me during this time.”
Yun Qianrou looked up at Su Lingxi, her voice trembling slightly.
“It’s okay. Anyway, I’ll be disliked wherever I go…”
In Su Lingxi’s eyes, Yun Qianrou’s gaze was so helpless.
She didn’t understand what Yun Qianrou meant.
Yun Qianrou turned and left, without even looking back.
Su Lingxi looked at her back and sighed faintly.
Her mood was extremely complicated. But what was she doing in this world?
It was to regain her own power and find a way to return to the main world.
Her ability was limited, and she couldn’t help everyone.
Living in this world, sometimes it was better to be selfish.
And until now, Yun Qianrou hadn’t told her what she was going to do.
What did she take her for?
A free bodyguard?
Let’s complete my mission first, and then try to find her.
This was already Su Lingxi’s biggest concession.
Su Lingxi did not stay and continued to walk towards the inn.
Yun Qianrou did not return until night.
That’s right. She was the one who drove her away.
How could she come back?
Su Lingxi tossed and turned, unable to sleep, feeling extremely annoyed.
But she couldn’t go find her now.
She must.
She must wait until she got the pill.
And so, Su Lingxi arrived three days later with a hint of guilt and anxiety.
In these three days, Yun Qianrou seemed to have disappeared from her life.
She never appeared again.
She might have already left the Heaven Wind Nation.
Su Lingxi did not detect that spiritual energy mark either.
Finally, it was time for the Heaven Wind Chamber of Commerce to open. Su Lingxi got up early and changed into a more luxurious outfit.
At the same time, she put on a veil, which could save a lot of trouble.
She went down to the inn and stopped a rickshaw.
“To the Heaven Wind Chamber of Commerce.”
After a while, Su Lingxi arrived at the entrance of the Heaven Wind Chamber of Commerce as scheduled.
There were already many people preparing to enter.
Judging from their clothes and aura, those who could enter the Heaven Wind Chamber of Commerce were at least at the Nascent Soul realm.
It was estimated that most of the upper-middle class people in the Eastern Region of the Heaven Wind Nation were gathered here.
This time, everyone was here to hunt for treasures, and everyone had a lot of spiritual crystals on them.
To keep a low profile, Su Lingxi silently stood behind this group of people and queued up. Yesterday, she had specially asked President Chu for an invitation.
This group of people’s gazes lingered on Su Lingxi for a few seconds before they were busy thinking about other things.
Successfully passing through the entrance, Su Lingxi followed the crowd into the interior of the Heaven Wind Chamber of Commerce.
As soon as Su Lingxi entered, she was shocked by the luxurious scene. The huge dome was inlaid with night-luminescent pearls, and the light was soft and bright.
Many rare treasures were displayed in the hall, attracting everyone to stop.
But fortunately, Su Lingxi had been to the Canglan Imperial Palace. No matter how luxurious a chamber of commerce was, it could not compare to the imperial palace of a country.
She found a remote corner and sat down. There was a button beside her.
This should be for injecting spiritual energy to bid for the items on the stage.
There was also a list of items beside her.
Su Lingxi opened it and flipped through it briefly. She was shocked.
There were indeed many good things on it.
There were even Earth-grade spiritual artifacts, but the starting price of these spiritual artifacts alone was close to a thousand high-grade spiritual crystals.
A thousand high-grade spiritual crystals for an Earth-grade spiritual artifact was not expensive.
Her gaze stopped on the seventh-grade Yin-Yang Harmony Pill. The starting price was three hundred high-grade spiritual crystals.
This price was already close to Su Lingxi’s stock, and this was just the starting price.
