C388 A Glimmer of Hope in Disappointment

On a busy street in the Viridescent City, the figures of a man and a woman could be seen walking about. The scene was rather quiet and many people looked at them with shock and respect.    

    

Some were even trying to avoid him, as if they didn't want to get too close to him.    

    

To be able to cause such a commotion, generally speaking, only existences with extremely high statuses and statuses would be able to do so. And these two people, one was Ling Yun Fan, who had been cultivating for many days without being able to relax, and the other one was Xuanyuan Li Xi, who had been pestering him to such an extent.    

    

Normally speaking, the unknown Lingyun would not cause this kind of situation. However, because of the increase in her relationship, this street area was being watched by countless people with strange looks.    

    

"I shouldn't have brought her out if I knew. I didn't expect this to happen." He discovered that a small portion of the people walking back and forth around him were using various kinds of gazes to stare at him and Xuanyuan Li Xi. Ling Yunfan also somewhat regretfully muttered to himself.    

    

Although his voice was very soft and could almost be said to be covered by the sound of the gentle breeze, Xuanyuan Li Xi still heard it a little. However, due to their vague relationship, she curiously asked, "Young Master, what are you muttering about?"    

    

"No, nothing, not far ahead is the Thousand Treasures Assembling Merchant Guild, let's hurry up and go." Seeing that she almost heard what he had just said, Ling Yunfan gave a guilty reply and immediately headed towards the front.    

    

His speed was extremely fast. Even though it looked like he was walking, he didn't look like he was walking at all. As for Xuanyuan Lixi, she bit her lips in dissatisfaction before quickly catching up to him.    

    

"Who is this guy? To actually be able to be treated so intimately by the famed young miss, he is not simple at all."    

    

"Yeah, I've been here for a few years, but I've never seen anything like this. How unbelievable."    

    

"A guy that can make Miss Li Xi stick to his side must have a very respected status. Even if they're not related by blood or anything like that, I'm afraid they must be the direct disciples of some powerful force in the Ancestral Land or the young masters of some big sect."    

    

"I hope I don't see that fellow, Glieno, or else I'll probably have to put on an exciting love fight."    

    

Not long after the two of them walked forward, there was a wave of discussion coming from the crowd behind them. Some were guessing Lingyun's identity, and some guessed the relationship between the two, as all sorts of topics were being discussed.    

    

However, from their conversation, it could be concluded that Xuanyuan Li Xi had some sort of relationship with that Gulian Ao guy. However, they didn't know who he was.    

    

…    

    

After a while, Ling Yunfan and Xuanyuan Li Xi finally arrived at their destination.    

    

"I really don't know what good stuff is inside this time. I wonder how many crystals that Yin Yang Mystical Ginseng that Xi Er is talking about will be enough to buy. It really makes people look forward to and worry." Looking at the Thousand Treasures Assembling Merchant Guild's door in front of him, Ling Yunfan could only mutter to himself helplessly before following Xuanyuan Li Xi in.    

    

After entering, he found that it was still the same as before, there wasn't much of a change, and only the treasures on the side had been changed quite a bit. Seeing Xuanyuan Zhengzhi sitting behind the counter, the little girl quickly ran over and greeted him with a smile, "Uncle Zhuang Zhi, long time no see!"    

    

"Yo, it's Xi'er. What a rare guest." Seeing her rushing over excitedly, Xuanyuan Zhengzhi slightly smiled and said.    

    

Immediately after, when he saw Ling Yunfan behind him, he first felt a sense of unfamiliarity, but he quickly remembered that it was him who bought the Blazing Flame Vermillion Bird Furnace from him.    

    

"Uncle Zheng Zhi, the Yin Yang Profound Ginseng that I wanted you to save two days ago?" Seeing the amiable look on the other party's face, Xuanyuan Lixi bluntly revealed her purpose for coming here.    

    

"This... Xi Er, I'm very sorry. " After hearing her words, a somewhat awkward expression appeared on Xuanyuan Zhengzhi's amiable face. After an apologetic look appeared in his eyes, he slowly shook his head and said, "That Yin Yang Profound Ginseng has already been bought by someone else. At that time, because I was no longer watching, I was unable to leave it behind for you."    

    

Hearing his words, regardless of whether they were Ling Yun Fan or Xuanyuan Li Xi who had been standing behind him, neither of them said a word. Their expressions were as if they had been petrified and couldn't react for a long time.    

    

Ah!    

    

After about ten minutes, Xuanyuan Li Xi, who had been petrified, seemed to have heard some extremely bad news and started screaming like a ghost.    

    

Perhaps it was because the promise he made to his master could not be fulfilled, but the cry was exceptionally loud. The entire company was so noisy that if they did not have something important to buy, they might have already been scared away.    

    

"What's wrong? It's just a Yin Yang Mystical Ginseng. That thing isn't very useful to you. You don't need to exaggerate, right?" Without waiting for her reply, he added: "Although Yin Yang Profound Ginseng is very precious, it is still in the Thousand Monster Mountain. If it is really important to you, you can go back and call people to look for it."    

    

"But..."    

    

"Xi Er, there's no need to pursue the matter any further. Since the date of the marriage of my two friends has not arrived yet, since I know the location of the Yin Yang Profound Ginseng, I might as well personally go over there and look for it. If I still can't get my hands on it by then, there's still another way."    

    

Just as she was about to say something, she heard Ling Yunfan's sound transmission.    

    

It was precisely because of this spiritual energy sound transmission that Xuanyuan Lixi swallowed her words back.    

    

"If there aren't any, then let's go back." Then, Ling Yunfan walked over, said something to him, and turned around to leave.    

    

"Uncle Zheng Zhi, we'll meet again next time."    

    

Seeing that, Xuanyuan Li Xi also bid farewell to Xuanyuan Zheng Zhi and immediately followed.    

    

"These two little guys are actually quite like siblings." Watching the two leave, Xuanyuan Zheng muttered to himself and no longer paid any attention to them.    

    

"..."    

    

"I'm sorry, little master. I don't know why this happened either." Xuanyuan Li Xi didn't walk far before she opened her mouth to apologize, her small hands tightly gripped her sleeves.    

    

"Silly girl, from the start, I have never blamed you. No matter what, I am your master, so how could I possibly be angry because of such a small matter?" Seeing this, in order to not let the opponent feel too much guilt, Lingyun Fan revealed a smile on his face. As he rubbed the back of her head that was covered with her silky black hair, he comforted her.
