Chapter 453: Chapter 301 I’m Not Your Wallet

...

"Why did you suddenly show up after all this time?" His voice clearly showed resentment, as he felt somewhat betrayed.

"I told you, I can’t help you inside these underground cities," Lan Feng reminded him, smiling as if flattered by Xu Yue’s nostalgia for him.

"Well, you don’t need to help, but don’t just pop up when I make purchases! I’m not your wallet!" Yan Xiaobao still thought it was wrong for Phoenix to only appear when wanting something, but he knew talking to the bird was like talking to a wall. He would never understand anything from his own perspective, he was very stubborn.

"Alright, fine, just hurry up and tell me how to use this stone," the white-haired boy changed the subject, taking out the stone he bought at the market. If Lan Feng hadn’t told him to buy it, he would never have thought it could aid his training in any way, but when the bird said it, he didn’t doubt Lan Feng.

"Before I go back to training, I’ll tell you about it," Lan Feng said with a self-satisfied smile on his face, ’when you’re cultivating, hold it in your hand and see what happens.’

That being said, the bird did exactly as he said, sitting within the Dantian Cave, once again fully immersed in his cultivation of Wu Wei and spiritual energy.

Seeing the bird return to sleep, Yan Xiaobao sighed and looked around. He had already purchased some items, he didn’t know where the library was, and rather than looking around himself, he quickly decided to return to the Mercenary Guild to spend time checking out the transportation he acquired.

....

Walking past the entrance, the guards immediately remembered the white-haired young man, just like the one who came here earlier with Xu Biao, and bowed to him at once, allowing him to enter the Mercenary Guild.

Walking through the main building of the guild and behind it, he could hear the low murmurs inside the building where Sha Yun and others currently resided. Hearing the sounds, his pale lips sighed, as the young man knew what had happened, he rushed toward the building, ready to apologize for the problems and pay for the repairs.

Yan Xiaobao disappeared alone and didn’t tell anyone about his trip leading to Sha Yun, who liked to keep Yan Xiaobao anxious in her sight.

When Yan Xiaobao arrived at the upper floor, what he expected happened, he could only swear at his forgetfulness for not telling his friends about his little trip to the market.

The entire first floor no longer looked as nice as before; in fact, all the doors were broken. All his friends gathered in one room, their expressions serious as they spoke in low voices, too low for Yan Xiaobao to hear.

Walking past the door, Sha Yun was the first to see him. She hugged herself, tears streaming down her eyes. An apologetic nod was all Yan Xiaobao gave them before they surrounded him, curious to hear what had happened.

"I’m sorry, okay?" Yan Xiaobao said, his arm around Sha Yun’s shoulder, his face truly apologetic. "I took an early bath and decided to check out the market, sorry I didn’t leave a note."

That was all there was to it. Clearly, everyone was on edge, they knew Zhou Long was cunning. Adding to that the fact that this white-haired boy had disappeared was enough to send all his friends into a panic. The young man knew this, which led him to display a bashful smile, unsure of how to make it up to everyone.

Just as he was about to offer to pay for the damages, Xie Lan stood up and activated her wood element, using her spiritual energy to restore everything to its previous state. It was a power only certain people could cultivate, something Yan Xiaobao had used before thoroughly smashing a courtyard at the academy.

Realizing Xie Lan was specializing in item restoration caught the entire team off guard, as they had thought her expertise was in healing.

"Don’t say that," Xu Biao laughed, looking at the group of wide-eyed, confused expressions. "Xie Lan isn’t good at fighting," he continued, "but when it comes to restoration or healing, she’s the best specialist."

"Restoration and healing are almost the same," Xie Lan’s melodious voice drifted in the air, her eyes on Wang Julong, evidently ready to begin explaining some deep secrets of her craft to the young girl. Their relationship had certainly improved significantly since they first met.

Seeing Xie Lan ready to teach her, Wang Julong quickly bowed to Xu Biao and nodded to her friends, then followed her departing teacher.

Watching Wang Julong’s eagerness closely, Yan Xiaobao couldn’t help but smile, as he realized her eagerness to learn from herself and her focus on improving her understanding. It was a trait he had acknowledged during their days at the academy many years ago.

Even now, Yan Xiaobao felt oddly drawn to the girl in front of him. The girl who continuously strived to better herself.

Without noticing, as he gazed at the woman who had just disappeared, his thoughts revolving around her and the memories they shared, a smile adorned the young man’s lips.

Allowing someone to invade his thoughts in this way was something Yan Xiaobao had never attempted before. Whether he wanted to consider her or not, Wang Julong was part of his life, having become a part of his daily thoughts. In a way different from Deng Wu and Sha Yun.
