章節 227: Chapter 227: Hidden Place

As the alliance leaders marveled at the Celestial Haven, their excitement quickly turned to surprise as an old man with a long, white beard emerged from the back of the hidden shop. He wore simple robes, and his eyes sparkled with wisdom and amusement.

The old man looked around, his eyes squinting behind a pair of thin spectacles, as if trying to size up the visitors before him. "Well, well, well, this is a surprise indeed," he said, his voice tinged with humor. "What brings such esteemed cultivators to my humble shop?"

Alix stepped forward, showing the utmost respect to the elderly vendor. "Greetings, sir. We've come seeking to acquire the Celestial Haven that you have in your possession," he said, his tone polite and humble.

The old man raised an eyebrow, a glimmer of amusement in his eyes. "Ah, the Celestial Haven, is it? That's not an ordinary item, you know. It's quite valuable," he said cryptically.
