The Balak Kingdom is located in the south of the Tiandou Empire and directly borders the Star Luo Empire. The border area between the two countries is always filled with a sense of tension from the contact of weapons. Under this pressure, there are only two main cities in the territory.The more peaceful one is the city of Soto, known as the granary of the kingdom.

While all the main roads were heavily guarded, bold merchants from both countries relied on various transactions to build a prosperous market in the city.

It was just after noon and the sun was still shining brightly. The scorching heat dried out the compacted land, and the excitement continued unabated.

"It's so hot." Xiao Wu raised her hand to block the tireless sunshine, and her fair cheeks were slightly red from the sun.While hanging lazily on Tang San's shoulder, he muttered and complained: "Quickly find a place to rest."

Tang San supported her and said helplessly: "You were tired from wandering around just now, are you acting like a spoiled child now?"

Xiao Wu's eyes wandered, but after a while she finally decided to give in: "My feet are really sore."

"Besides, the exam won't be until tomorrow. I haven't had enough fun with such a big Soto City..."

Tang San was listening to Xiao Wu's words attentively, when suddenly a carriage passed by in front of him. The wind blew through the curtains of the carriage, and Tang San's excellent eyesight allowed him to instantly capture a silhouette in the carriage——

White, short hair, and the dark embroidery on the collar is an elegant swan.

The combination of these characteristics immediately reminded Tang San of the Tiandou royal family whose martial spirit was swan.

How could someone from the royal family appear in Soto City? This place is close to the border of the empire and is considered a dangerous zone.

Tang San subconsciously chased the ordinary carriage with his eyes, and was surprised to find that the carriage stopped at an intersection not far away.

He couldn't help but look at it intently.

The first person to get off the bus was a young man, who looked about fourteen or fifteen years old. He was in the period of masturbation and had a slender waist. The black coat on his body reached to his ankles. The simple dark color made his skin fair and elegant. A delicate sense of vulnerability.

He took the driver's wrist and jumped out of the car nimbly. His finger bones were long and his palm was soft and without calluses.

Compared to the fashionable outfits that are popular offline, the man wore a white shirt under his coat.The buttons are made of red stones and the fabric is visibly soft and expensive.As soon as he got out of the car, the sharp-eyed merchants on the roadside started shouting.

Tang San saw that the man stretched out his hand to wave to the people in the carriage, as if saying goodbye.

The man's fingers were waving in the air.

Tang San stared at that hand for a moment, a faint sense of weirdness always lingering in his eyes, as if there was a sense of stagnation, and the slight lag made him look like he was looking at a hidden weapon with mismatched gears.He instinctively felt that something was wrong, and a faint purple energy gathered in his eyes, quickly climbed up to his pupils, and covered the area around his eyes.

"Tang San!"

Finally being called back to his senses by the call in his ear, Tang San was pulled by the arm and staggered.He stabilized his body and looked back at Xiao Wu blankly.The other person was sullen, with his hands on his hips looking angrily.

"...What's wrong, Xiao Wu?"

"What's the matter with me? I just called you four or five times, and you didn't respond as if you had lost your soul!"

Xiao Wu originally just wanted to take Tang San to visit a roadside store, but noticed that he was looking at a certain place, and followed his gaze to look there, but the direction was slightly shifted, and she saw a person in front of her. The curvy female spirit master was selecting items at the stall.

When he turned around, he saw Tang San staring at the other party again, furious.

Seeing that she was angry, Tang San could only put down the matter of observing that person and explain to Xiao Wu first.After finally explaining the whole story, when I tried to find the carriage again, it had already disappeared.

Tang San lost his target, sighed helplessly, and pointed at a shop on the roadside.

"Let's go hang out there."

Xiao Wu's attention was diverted, and she looked in the direction of Tang San's finger.

I saw a shop not far away, with several symbols engraved on the hanging signboard.

The door is closed, and I don't know what they are selling.

The two of them walked in. The room was very dark, and the oncoming wave of soul power was very steady, which instantly attracted their attention.There are some things hanging on the three walls, and the soul power that fills the entire room emanates from those items.

It seems to be selling soul tools, but these are very old and don't look good.Tang San came to a conclusion.

But in this shabby and cramped shop, besides them, there was another person.

The man was raising his head, holding his arms and randomly selecting soul tools on the wall.

As he moved, the black hair on his forehead swayed, revealing his left eye that was wrapped in a bandage.

As he got closer, Tang San realized that the other party's facial features were exquisite and almost flawless.The man fiddled with the dark stones on the table with great interest, and a corner of the bandage was vaguely visible on his wrist under his sleeve.

It's him.

Tang San blocked the uninterested Xiao Wu behind without leaving a trace, and activated the Purple Demon Eye instantly.

Purple mist filled the air, Tang San restrained his aura, lowered his breathing, being careful not to disturb the person.

Three seconds passed, Tang San frowned.

There was a mist of flowers and moon in the water before my eyes, and I seemed to be able to see something clearly, but I seemed to be unable to see anything at all.

"There are so many customers here today. You can see whatever you want to see. They are all good products."

There was another person in the store, pulling a recliner and sitting behind the counter, making it sway.

He looked about fifty years old, not too old but looked really lazy. He refused to move from the recliner when the guests came. He just raised his eyelids and made some breathy noises from his nose to greet them, and then He lay back in the chair and shook his fan slowly.

However, he has a very distinctive appearance, with protruding cheekbones, a bit of a gutter nose, concave cheeks, and prominent brow bones. He also wears a pair of black-rimmed glasses, which looks strange together with his facial features.

Tang San glanced at him, but unexpectedly saw a yellow crystal with many impurities beside the counter.

The crystal was hanging alone on the wall, looking inconspicuous and almost covered with several layers of dust. It had not been sold for a while.

Tang San's eyes lit up, and he pointed at the crystal and asked, regardless of the other person's background.

"Boss, how do you sell this?"

Xiao Wu had no interest in that rotten crystal, so she pulled Tang San's sleeve and whispered to him not to buy it.

Tang San patted her and signaled to wait a moment.

"No more, no less, a hundred gold soul coins." A lazy, hoarse voice sounded.

Xiao Wu's eyes widened in disbelief: "How dare you sell this piece of broken stone for a hundred gold soul coins!?"

"Are you here to rob? It's not like we've only had a guest for 80 years, and we just want the lion to open his mouth, right? We're not stupid, only fools would buy it!"

The middle-aged man drank some wine, and he was feeling drunk. His tongue was paralyzed by the alcohol, and his speech was a little slurred. He raised one eye and looked at the three young people in the store, tapping with his index finger. Tang Yi's armrest looked indifferent.

“It’s okay if you don’t buy it.”

"Business is all about mutual consent. It's not good for a little girl to hurt others with her words."

The middle-aged man yawned, but still did not leave his recliner, pointing to the side.

"If you buy it, buy it. If you don't buy it, leave it."

Xiao Wu was aroused by his indifferent but annoying attitude and was about to rush forward to argue.

"I bought it."

A voice sounded.There was a slight rise in the clear voice, which sounded like a child's indistinguishable gender, a very special voice.It didn't match his slim and fair appearance.

Tang San felt his ears were scratched and a little itchy, so he subconsciously looked at that person.

The other party smiled and nodded at him politely, then took out a purple gold coin and shook it.

The "栝" ones were placed on the counter.

He said: "I think this is worth a hundred gold soul coins. Can the boss accept it?"

Flanders blew his beard, and when he saw the purple gold coin, his turbid eyes suddenly brightened up. He had sobered up a lot. He glanced at Tang San who was standing aside, and had no time to stir up trouble.

"I think that guy really wants to buy it. A gentleman doesn't take what others like..."

He chuckled: "The one with the highest price will get it. Even if you lose, you will be convinced."

Anyone with a discerning eye can see that the boss did it on purpose, just because he took a fancy to the competing spirit between the two.One is well-dressed and the other has a calm temperament. Both young men are soul masters and have the arrogance of soul masters. If they really get into a fight, he will definitely benefit in the end.

It was rare for Tang San to come across this top-quality crystal, so he naturally didn't want to miss it. Fortunately, in the past few years, he had been working on his own, and going to the Spirit Hall to receive subsidies every month, and he had gradually accumulated some savings.

Although spending a few hundred more gold soul coins to buy it is a loss-making business, you can't miss the opportunity and work hard within the insurance coverage to support Xiaowu without worrying about food and clothing.

"150 gold soul coins."

One purple gold coin is equivalent to one hundred gold soul coins. When Tang San quoted the price, Xiao Wu narrowed her eyes in distress.

"栝." Another purple gold coin.

Tang San: "...250."

Xiao Wu took a deep breath, covered her cold forehead, and almost fainted on the spot.

"栝, 枝." Two purple gold coins.

Tang San gritted his teeth: "...550..."

Xiao Wu made a quick decision and grabbed Tang San's hand and rushed towards the door of the store, sobbing and saying:

"I don't want to live a life of eating chaffy vegetables. I want beautiful clothes and hairpins!"

"Brother, brother, I still need to live on you!"

"Stop it, brother!"

It was as if he was trying to save his relatives who were confused and stuck in the quagmire.

Tang San bit the corner of his mouth, weighing reason and impulse, and finally gave up.

Xiao Wu escaped from the devil's cave, saw the sun in daylight again, and exhaled in emotion.

"...Impulse is the devil!"

Across the door, Flanders stood up slowly, holding on to the handrail, smelling of alcohol.

Smiling, he reached for the shiny, round purple gold coins on the counter, but his hands were empty.

"...young man?"

Yuan Yi held a few beautiful purple-gold coins and turned them over on his fingers. His white fingers perfectly matched the purple-gold light and rolled them dexterously. Under the eager eyes of the people opposite him, he put them back in his neck. In the soul guidance device, he finally pulled the collar and covered the soul guidance device tightly.

Flanders: "...What do you mean?"

Yuan Yi tilted his head, blinked, and smiled playfully: "Of course I don't want it, uncle."

"..."

Yuan Yi earnestly taught: "People, just can't be too greedy, you can't have your cake and eat it too."

As he spoke, he pointed back.

"Do you want me to call him back, uncle?"
