Storage Bag

"You know the boss well?" Long Chen faintly asked after a while.

"Yeah! We are like best friends. I always come to his restaurant, and he is always very happy whenever he sees me." Xiao Wan Wan carelessly replied.

Long Chen didn't say anything more, as he silently ate.

After they all were done eating, they stood up and left the restaurant.

Not paying, of course.

"Where are you going next?" Long Chen was still holding the shopping bags within his hands, as he turned to ask.

"I'm going back to the clan to put my stuff back home." Xiao Wan Wan said.

"The Sect." Murong Xuan replied.

"Are you sure?" Long Chen doubtfully asked as he lifted the bags in his hands, while looking at Xiao Wan Wan's small body.

"Tsk. Of course! Haven't you heard of this before?" Xiao Wan Wan took out a normal looking purse from her pockets, with the only difference being that it shone with a faint radiance

"Isn't that the purse where you took out your money from?" Long Chen pointed towards it and said.

"Yeah. Look at this." Xiao Wan Wan took hold of one of the bags from his hands, and placed it within the purse.

Long Chen was about to laugh about how ridiculous this was, when the next scene stupefied him.

The shopping bag that was many time bigger than the purse, had mysteriously disappeared.

This was not within his range of experience at all.

"What is that?" He curiously asked.

"Tsk. How could you not know such a simple thing? Has nobody told you before? This is a storage bag. Although it looks small on the outside, it has a separate space within that is many times larger than what it seems. "

"This is where cultivators store all our stuff inside, and is also the most valuable thing on a cultivator, because it contains most of their treasures. If not, where do you possibly think we place our various weapons, clothes and money into? Our pockets?" Xiao Wan Wan glanced with Long Chen with a trace of disdain in her large eyes.

Long Chen softly chuckled awkwardly.

His sword, was placed in a sheath tied to his sides, while his Low-Tier Crystals, were lightly juggling in his pockets.

Then he narrowed his eyes as he realized something.

"Since you have a storage bag, why did you make me carry all the bags within my arms for?" Long Chen said with a serious expression.

"Because it was…" Xiao Wan Wan was about to cry out loud, when she saw his usually solemn expression, and she paused in her words.

"Do you know how much effort I had to make?" Long Chen faked out an expression of anger, as he cried out, "Do you know how tired I was, after all that work?"

Xiao Wan Wan didn't know what Long Chen was talking about, or why he had abruptly became like this, but because she could feel the anger radiating out of him, she kept silent, while twiddling her short fingers.

"I'm sorry." She softly mumbled after a while.

"An apology, for all my wasted effort?" Long Chen exploded out his aura.

"What do you want?" Xiao Wan Wan lowered her little head as if she was wronged, and muttered.

"I saw that you have one of those little purse things within your pockets." Long Chen pointed his fingers towards Xiao Wan Wan's pocket.

"Tsk." Xiao Wan Wan face froze, then softly snorted in disdain.

At this point, she knew that it was all an act. What he truly wanted, was his storage purse.

Even if he had asked her for it directly, she would also give it to him.

After all, she had more than enough of such things, She was from a Great Family, after all

However, she still acted out an expression of hesitation, as she begrudgingly took out the storage purse and handed it towards Long Chen,

With her face full of willingness, she softly cried out, "I'm sorry, purse, I'll have to leave you after all these years of companionship with you. Now, I'll hand you over to my Brother Long Chen."

Her eyes were on the brim of tears, and as Long Chen saw this, he immediately panicked as he tried his best to comfort her.

"Wan Wan, don't cry. It is just a storage purse. How about this, I'll…owe you a favour next time?"

Xiao Wan Wan slowly lifted her head to look at Long Chen with her misty eyes, as she asked, "Really?"

"Yeah" Long Chen promptly replied.

"Pinky promise?" Xiao Wan Wan placed her hand and put it in front of Long Chen, and glancing back at his eyes.

After completing it, Xiao Wan Wan excitedly said, "Brother Long Chen, you cannot reign on your promise!"

Staring at the glint in her eyes, Long Chen felt like he had somehow lost out in this deal, like always.

After Xiao Wan Wan packed all the shopping bags into her storage purse, Murong Xuan and Xiao Wan Wan left on their respective venues, while Long Chen stayed on in the city, with the thought of exploring the market.

Just as he was putting his Crystals as well as his sword inside the storage bag, a voice transmission rang into his ears, "Long Chen, you seemed to have forgotten your disguise. Your aura is particular outstanding amongst all the people here."

The voice sounded like the Sect Leader of the Moonlight Sect, Yun Che Liang. He looked around his four directions, but couldn't catch a sight of him. It seemed like he was just passing by and noticed him.

Then thinking back about not having his disguise on, he really felt like slapping himself. How could he forget about such a simple thing?

Although he had purposely hid his aura, but those powerful cultivators many realms above him would be able to sense it.

If there truly was a powerful character who took note of him…and had untoward intentions, then he was in deep trouble.

He hurriedly rushed to a dark corner on the streets, changing his face into the unattractive and plain 30 year old one, and then walked out of the street, towards the direction of the Market.

Unless it was those old monsters with profound cultivation who took a deep long at Chen Long, no one else would be able to notice the fact that he was in disguise.

A Yellow Grade 5 Bone Muscle Alteration Skill that he was rather proficient in wasn't that easy to break, after all.

Meanwhile, in a bright-lighted room, two figures stood side by side, each of them unconsciously exuding an unfathomable aura.

If Long Chen was here, he would notice that they were Yun Che Liang and the mysterious elder of the Pavilion.

"The evil sects have been accumulating their power these past few years. Sooner or later, they will rise up into the light, and stop hiding behind the dark." Yun Che Liang looked out of the window with a deep gaze in his eyes.

"That's not what I'm worried about though. They have been building up their forces, but so do we. But, I heard from my sources that they have recently heralded a new Devil Successor. They call him an exceptional talent that have never been seen in centuries. "Yun Che Liang softly muttered.

"There is no need to worry about that. We already have one that suppresses him. As long as he doesn't die, he would surely rise above us all. I have already secretly given him a disguise skill that is almost impenetrable, so he won't be targeted outside by the evil sects." The mysterious elder said in a deep voice.

"I chanced upon him just previously. He went out forgetting to use it." Yun Che Liang replied.

"…."

"Why can't we just send out people to protect him all day long? He, is after all, our most valuable person within the Sect." Yun Che Liang turned towards the mysterious elder.

"Don't even think about it. He has to know of the cruelty of the cultivation world. Out of all those legends in the world, who isn't bathed in bloodshed, before they could get to their current point? Only through overcoming the obstacles themselves, will they truly be able to shine with a radiance." The mysterious elder profoundly commented, then silently shook his head as he left down a sentence

"Only if he relies on himself, can he truly be called powerful."
