She strolled slowly inside, seeing the clear blue sky with its fluffy white clouds, another tiny world within by itself. Before the boundary barrier was broken, although she had been able to see it, but had not been able to cross over, and it now looked a world of difference.
As she looked around in the Spatial Spirit Palace, her mood soared involuntarily, thinking what an amazing find the Spatial Ring really was.
"Look, there is even an Ever Spirit Spring, I have taken a look at it. The Spirit Spring's water had been so well nourished by the high density of spirit energy in the air here that even the water's source is filled with spirit energy."
The little Fire Phoenix was exhilarated as well. When the boundary barrier had been broken earlier, he had enjoyed himself for quite awhile here. In regards to the place he had discovered here, he liked it a lot from the bottom of his heart or he wouldn't have stayed within the space here without complaining, wanting to get out. He knew that if he remained within here to cultivate, then his power would surely swell up at a extremely fast rate.
She laughed aloud, rubbing the little Fire Phoenix on his tiny head and saying: "Then you just be good and stay in here to cultivate. I'll have to go out first. I'll come in to do my cultivation next time and I believe the rate I will progress at will be amazing."
"Alright." The little Fire Phoenix pouted and went over to the Spirit Spring to play with water.
Feng Jiu smiled at the sight and delved into her consciousness once more to bring herself outside.
Immediately upon opening the room door, she saw Guan Xi Lin practising with his sword in the yard. Seeing that he was still rather stiff wielding the sword with his left hand, not entirely nimble with it as yet, her heart cringed slightly and she called out: "Big Brother."
"Little Jiu, you're finally out? You're really something. Why are you practising your cultivation like no tomorrow? You have closed yourself in for three whole days at a stretch."
He kept his sword and walked towards her, saying with a serious face: "Little Jiu, cultivation is not a one time thing. It is impossible to yearn for results in a short period. You have to take it step by step."
Hearing those words, Feng Jiu could not help herself but smile and replied: "Yes yes yes."
Although she had reached the early levels of the mystical Warrior stage, she suppressed her powers to just the second level of a Warrior. The average person would not be able to see what kind of cultivation she had really attained.
Being able to achieve such speed in her advancement within such a short period of time, it was naturally because of her rare mystical spirit body. Moreover, the channels of her mystical spirit meridians had been opened and enlarged by her Master, where the channels were originally just a tiny thin stream, and they were now like a wide torrential and raging river, which made the speed that her cultivation progressed at a completely different level from before.
"Oh right, Big Brother. I need to go purchase a set of silver needles. Accompany me will you?"
"Sure. Let's go right now." He splashed some water on his face to clean it quickly before slinging his sword behind his back and he immediately followed Feng Jiu outside.
When they walked into Precious Treasure Pavilion, Feng Jiu immediately detected that someone had their eye on them.
"Shopkeeper, do you have a full set of silver needles available here?"
"Sure! But what kind of quality would our young Miss like to have? We have three models at this current moment, differentiated by high, medium and low grade. The prices are of course different and the grade and quality are vastly different." The shopkeeper introduced with a smile, bringing out three sets of silver needles and putting them all right before Feng Jiu.
"This one then." She picked the most expensive set as the needles with the different lengths were more complete and they were rather well made.
Her gaze then fell onto a scabbard hanging high up on the wall. Her eyes lit up and she asked: "Is that sword scabbard for sale?"
The shopkeeper followed her gaze and turned to look. With a smile he said: "Our young Miss really has a keen eye. That is a completely unique, one of a kind sword scabbard that our Precious Treasure Pavilion has. You can almost look throughout the entire Sun Glory Country and you will not be able to find one that is similar to it."
The shopkeeper brought the sword scabbard down and continued to say: "The seven different coloured main precious stones are all rare treasures and the hand carved designs on it are exquisitely done, the matching of colours gorgeous and regal. Instead of calling it a sword scabbard, we might as well say this piece is a heartwarming accessory which is highly pleasing to the eye."
She picked up the sword scabbard to take a look at it and said: "Bill it."
Hearing her say that, the shopkeeper was all smiles as he led Feng Jiu to the cashier counter and said with a laugh: "Miss, the Seven Star sword scabbard is one million and two hundred and the silver needle set is thirty five thousand. I'll make it one million, two hundred and thirty thousand just for you. The remaining five thousand I'll give the young Miss a discount hoping you will come back here again."
Feng Jiu paid up, quickly slipping the scabbard and the silver needles into the Cosmos Sack before leaving the place together with Guan Xi Lin.
Seeing her use a Cosmos Sack, the shopkeeper eyes flashed with astonishment. [A Cosmos Sack? Looks like the young Miss' is from quite a family background! It's got to be, or why would she purchase the Seven Star scabbard that cost more a million without even bargaining so readily! ?]
The two of them purchased quite a lot of things outside and they shopped throughout the entire day before they went back. The person who had been tailing them followed them all the way until he saw them enter a little house with a yard in a out of the way part of town before he went back to report his findings.
In one of the inns, a middle aged man was practicing his cultivation with his legs crossed as he sat. When he heard a low voice call out from outside, he said: "Come in."
A man walked in quickly and greeted respectfully before he said: "Second Old Master. Your subordinate has followed the two of them for a whole day and I saw them finally enter a little house in a out of the way part of town. I asked around in the surrounding area and found out that they had just moved in three days ago and they claimed themselves to be siblings. And in the Precious Treasures Pavilion today, the lady in red took out a Cosmos Sack that had belonged to the Young Master."
The middle aged man filled up with a murderous rage as he said in a deep voice: "A pair of siblings? Describe to me in detail their outward appearances."
"Yes." He described the characteristics of their bodies and appearances of the two people and he said at the end: "But the girl dressed in red had a veil over her face and I had not been able to see her face clearly."
The middle aged man's eyes darkened as one of his arms hung down at his side. The other arm tensed up tightly as his hand clenched into a fist till the veins showed visibly, his knuckles crackling.
"Have a portrait of the girl in red drawn up and send it to the black market mercenaries' mission bulletin board. Reveal to the people in the black market of their address and tell them I want to see the girl's head by tomorrow morning!"
"Yes!" The man answered in reverence and quickly retreated out of the room.
It was already night and the skies were exceptionally dark, like one big mass of dark clouds had completely blocked out the sky, where not a single star could be seen.
Dressed in full red, Feng Jiu was lying atop the roof, a hand beneath her head, the other hand holding up the Cosmos Sack as she stared at it and said to herself: "So it's because you had been marked with a spirit marker. No wonder even after I have changed into such feminine clothes from the torn and tattered beggar clothes, I could still be recognized."
Keeping the Cosmos Sack away, she stared at the pitch black night sky and said with a satisfied sigh: "This feels….. really just so great tonight! Such a dark and windy night, what a perfect night to kill!"
That voice filled with indifference was tinged with a slight languid tone, and also an almost undetectable sense that was almost like….. anticipation.
The night grew deep and Feng Jiu yawned as she waited on the roof, almost groggy with sleepiness.
Until, the second half of the night, when the pale moon barely peeked out from behind the dark clouds like a shy maiden, to throw its pale light to shine upon the land brightly…..
Four black figures holding long swords approached quickly as they ran, chilling murder emanating from them. They came speedily to the doors outside the yard and they summoned their Qi as they leapt up. Just as they were landing inside the yard, they were shocked to hear a voice.
"I have been waiting here the whole night for all of you."
The languid voice was tinged with sleepiness as it reached their ears and all four of the black robed men instinctively looked in the direction of the source of the voice.
They saw atop the roof, a girl in red flipping herself up to sit up there lazily, her red clothes billowing in the wind, her long black hair fanned out behind, bathed within the pale moonlight, wild and flamboyant, devilishly alluring and highly indolent…..
