Chapter 316: 305

After resting for a night at the Witch’s place, Xia Yue and the others took the remaining money they had and went to the shop where Xia Xi and Wen Ziyin had previously bought Cinnabar Talisman Papers.

As Xia Xi and Wen Ziyin were discussing with the shopkeeper about how much and what quality of cinnabar talisman papers they wanted, Xia Yue and Yan Mo were looking around the shop.

"This ink slab is nice; grandpa will surely like it." Xia Yue, roaming around, spotted an ink slab, her eyes lit up. She picked it up to inspect it, then called to the shopkeeper, "Boss, how much for this ink slab?"

"Thirty thousand silver yuan," the shopkeeper casually replied after a glance.

Upon hearing this, Xia Yue hesitated. Their money was limited, she didn’t know whether there would be enough left after Xia Xi and Wen Ziyin made their purchases.

Seeing her hesitation, Yan Mo whispered, "Do you want it? If you do, buy it. If we run out of money, we still have the gold bars, right? We can use those to exchange. We won’t be here for too long; we don’t have to worry about exposure."

Xia Yue, joy in her eyes upon hearing his words, still asked, "Really? I can do that?"

"Yes, you can." Yan Mo nodded, seeming reluctant to see her unhappy.

"Thank you. Can I choose two more items? To pick something for my grandma and brother?" Xia Yue looked at him expectantly.

"Sure, go ahead." Yan Mo nodded.

Xia Yue happily continued to browse in the shop, finally picking out an old-fashioned wooden bracelet with mysterious patterns on it, suitable for elders, and a pixiu stone sculpture piece.

Added to Xia Xi and Wen Ziyin’s purchases, the total came to two hundred and fifty-thousand silver yuan.

The total amount of money Xia Yue and the others had was only fifty-thousand. Finally, they took out the gold bars from the system bag to pay the shopkeeper.

With these items, Yan Mo and the rest did not linger, heading straight back to the mansion of the Witch.

After saying goodbye to the Witch, the holy woman of the Witch Clan, they entered the Space-Time Portal and were teleported back to Blue Star.

Blue Star, Xia Long Kingdom’s Four Seasons Resort.

Xia Yue and the others were dumped by the Space-Time Portal on the beach.

"Congratulations on your return, host." The system, appearing in the form of a lion cat, greeted them with a smile.

"Why does it always have to drop us off from mid-air? Can’t it be a bit gentler?" complained Xia Yue, disgruntled.

"The Space-Time Portal can only approximate the location." The system explained.

"So where are we now?" Xia Yue asked.

"On the beach," answered the system.

"Are you all okay? If you’re all good, let’s head back," said Yan Mo, looking over at them.

"Let’s go home. I want to eat something delicious," Xia Yue happily proposed.

"If the other juniors knew about the stuff that we brought back, they’d be green with envy," Wen Ziyin, thinking about the things he purchased, laughed and said to Xia Xi.

"If they do well, we can share some with them," Xia Xi answered, stroking the Mo Si wrapped around her wrist, with a small smile on her face.

The group bumped into some others halfway and were immediately surrounded with questions asked in concerns.

When they returned to the mansion, word had already spread that they were back.

After returning and resting for a while, Yan Mo gathered everyone for another meeting to report back to his superiors.

Xia Yue let Xuanxuan out of the different space to play with the system while she called Grandpa Xia, Grandma, and Xia Yu to assure them of her safety.

After chatting with them, she packed the gifts that she bought into boxes and brought them to Xia Xi.

She planned to have them transported back when she left.

When Xia Yue arrived at Xia Xi’s courtyard, she found her and Wen Ziyin also on the phone with someone.
