It was late at night. Ji Ning used a void blink to arrive within the centermost city of the entire world of the Grand Xia.
Within the Heavenly Treasures Mountain of the imperial capital of the Grand Xia. Within a residence. Ning was drinking wine by himself, facing the bright moon.
"Eh?" Ning's ears twitched; he glanced sideways. A white-robed, silver-haired man had just come walking in through the door.
"Senior Skyfox," Ning laughed, then rose to his feet.
"Since you've hurried here so late at night, I'm sure you must have an urgent matter to deal with." The silver-haired man smiled as he spoke. "Ji Ning, if there's anything you need, just tell me. His Imperial Majesty has ordered this long ago; I naturally won't be the slightest bit negligent."
Ning nodded. "I need to buy some precious items."
"Precious? How precious?" The silver-haired man asked.
