Inside the Treasure Hall [2]

"Yuan, I found it!"

Yuan heard Mu Li's voice as he was searching for the treasure with his technique.

"Oh! Ok, I am coming!"

Yuan walked toward Mu Li and looked at the things in her hands. There were two jade bracelets that looked old, and useless.

"Hey, what do you need these for anyway? You don't intend to train with these right?" Mu Li asked interested.

"These are for training but not for me," Yuan answered. "But, how do you know about this treasure? You easily found it too. Did you use them before?" He asked as he was suspicious about it. She may have a nickname 'She Knows It All', but it was just a nickname. It would be hard to find it if you haven't seen it.

"Ha! Yes, I used them when I was at the Spirit Body Stage to train my physique. My master gave them to me, that old geezer trained me like crazy. But they were useless when I broke through the Spirit Disciple Stage so I returned it to the Treasure Hall. Though you know, the points that I exchanged were little compared to the time when I bought it, I was scammed there! Hmph! I will take my revenge back someday!"

Mu Li spoke about her experience and how she knew about the treasure.

Yuan believed in her as he also used it himself. He was gonna use it in Huan too.

"Thanks, this it. I owe you one. Now let's leave." Yuan spoke. While he was about to leave his eyes spotted something and he remembered he was still using his technique "Spirit Emperor Eyes", so thought it might have picked it up as a good treasure. Even, he, himself didn't know how this technique would differentiate the treasures but it would always work.

"Huh? What is this?" He got the thing he spotted using his technique, it was one shelf away from the bracelets.

"What a cute hairpin!" Mu Li spoke joyously.

"It has made out of jade too... And it looks ancient..." Yuan looked at the hairpin that was in his hands. Then he noticed Mu Li who was staring intently at the hairpin.

Yuan then thought of something as he looked at the hairpin and Mu Li, he repeated this action a few times as if he was trying to confirm something.

{This way I can use this to...}

"Here, take it. This is for you." Yuan gave the hairpin to Mu Li.

"Huh? You are giving this to me?" Mu Li asked surprised.

"Yeah, a thanks gift from me for your help earlier."

"But I helped you as an apology for earlier..."

"I never took that seriously. You just bumped into me, that was all." Yuan brushed it off.

"But..." Mu Li tried to argue but her eyes never left the hairpin. It was as if she was charmed by it.

"Ok. Then I will do it myself." Yuan spoke. Then he extended his hands slowly and put the jade hairpin on Mu Li's long hair. It suited her perfectly.

"I don't know about this stuff that much but it suited you well." He spoke as he looked at Mu Li.

Suddenly he sensed something was wrong as he noticed Mu Li's cheeks were blushing red. Then he realized what he had done.

{Huh! What did I do?}

His brain stopped functioning for a moment as he had no idea what and how had he done it. Maybe he felt familiar with her, or he just wanted to repay her favor.

"Th-thanks! I will treasure it!" Mu Li smiled brightly.

{Beatiful!} Yuan thought after seeing her smiling. Her smile was really beautiful which made him stunned. He saw many beautiful women in his past life. Even prettier than Mu Li. But, her sincere and bright smile... He saw this smile only on one woman... and she was the most beautiful woman for him in this world... Unfortunately, now or in the future he couldn't see her again...

"...You are welcome..." Yuan answered in a low voice.

Drop...

Slowly a tear formed in Mu Li's eyes and dropped across her face.

"Huh? Why are you crying?" Yuan immediately noticed the tear in Mu Li's eyes. {What? Did I do or say anything wrong? What do I do?}. He panicked in his mind.

"No... I am just happy to receive a gift... Nobody had gifted anything to me before... You are the first... So thank you..." Mu Li spoke while making pauses, she wiped away the teardrops with her delicate fingers.

"Is that so? Hahaha..." Yuan could only scratch his head as his introverted self kicked in. He had never been in this kind of situation before...

The atmosphere became awkward again...

"Let's leave then." Mu Li spoke first as she returned to her usual self.

"Yes, right..."

Inside the Treasure Hall.

The receptionist area.

"We will be taking these. And also the hairpin." Rong Yuan spoke as he gave the bracelets to the appointed treasure hall disciple.

"Yes. I will be checking their prices."

"Here. The Jade Dragon Spirit Bracelets are at the Intermediate Grade Low-Level. Its price is 500 CP (Contribution Points)... And for the hairpin the lady wearing, its name is Ancient Jade Hairpin... Its grade is the same as the bracelets... Its price is 800 CP. Now you only have to pay the price..."

"Ok. Here." Yuan gave his old inner disciple token to the treasure hall disciple.

"Yes. Wait for a bit." The disciple took the token and placed it in a circle that made transactions.

"The payment is done. Here is your token! Thanks for your purchase." The disciple gave the token back to Yuan and acted with respect which surprised Yuan.

"Ok. Then, let's leave." Yuan spoke and started to leave.

"Yes." Mu Li agreed and followed after Yuan.

When the duo left, the disciple who just serviced them had a sigh of relief.

"Thank God, I didn't act rude toward them. Even though the infamous she knows it all was here. But that man had a peculiar aura... And he was... He was rich too! Super rich! He had 121900 CP on his token. What the crazy ***... I doubt he is the secret son of the Sect Master!"

When making the payment he saw the number of points Yuan had and had almost a heart attack. It was high, way too high.

To collect that many points one had to complete hundreds of missions and the missions should be at the B Grade at least.

Yuan was also a fighting maniac when he was free from cultivating so whenever he had the chance he would complete missions. But he rarely used his points so they made a huge amount by now.

He would probably be the richest disciple in the sect if it was before... But he is a master now...
