Bai Xiaofan stepped out of the tavern, aimlessly wandering the streets, oblivious to the rain that had begun to fall as if he’d lost his soul. Without realizing it, he found himself at the small pub deep in the alley where he and the white tiger had first come. “Uncle Tang, two jugs of wine...” “Worried about something? A drink might do you good!” After bringing the wine, Uncle Tang also made a few side dishes for Bai Xiaofan. Since there were no other customers, he sat down beside him. “It’s nothing much, just some matters of the heart between a man and a woman,” Bai Xiaofan said with a bitter smile as he took the towel from Uncle Tang and wiped the rain off his face and hair. “Quite normal for a young man. Drink up, and if it’s not enough, just call me. I can’t boast about anything else, but when it comes to wine, as much as you need is as much as I have!” Uncle Tang said in a knowing tone, patting Bai Xiaofan’s shoulder before leaving. Bai Xiaofan couldn’t understand why Murong Yue didn’t want to be with him. Why was she so exhausted every day? For what purpose? He truly could give her any life she wanted, wasn’t it just a life of luxury? He could give her that as well... After drinking several jugs of wine, Bai Xiaofan decided on one thing: to earn money, a lot of it... Stumbling back to the villa, drunk, he went on his own into the room and began to classify and refine the remaining herbs. By the time Jiang Feifei and Chen Xiner returned from school, Bai Xiaofan had already refined more than a dozen pills, each more potent than those he had made previously. At that moment, as the effects of alcohol wore off, Bai Xiaofan took out the Fish Intestine Sword and carefully examined it with his Divine Sense. After pondering for a moment, Bai Xiaofan sliced open his wrist with the Fish Intestine Sword, enduring the excruciating pain as blood dripped onto the blade. Simultaneously, in his heart, Bai Xiaofan silently recited the artifact-refining incantation... Suddenly, a dazzling blood-red light burst forth, filling the room. “Why is there a red light coming from Brother Xiaofan’s room?” Chen Xiner asked curiously. “Don’t know, who knows what he’s up to? He took Murong Wan out this morning, hmph!” Jiang Feifei pouted unhappily, taking big bites of the ice cream in her arms. “Feifei, are you jealous?” “I’m not jealous, I’m eating ice cream!” Shortly after, Bai Xiaofan walked out of the room, looking as if he had been bathed in blood, startling Chen Xiner and Jiang Feifei on the sofa to almost scream. “Get dressed, I’m taking you out for dinner!” Bai Xiaofan said to the frightened girls before diving into the bathroom. While showering, Bai Xiaofan couldn’t help but feel excited inside. The Fish Intestine Sword was indeed a Divine Artifact, no wonder it incited that “King” organization to chase after him relentlessly. With his current level of Qi Cultivation in the latter stages, if he were to fully activate the Fish Intestine Sword, his combat power would at least triple compared to before. “Brother Xiaofan, what happened to you just now? Why are you all covered in blood?” Chen Xiner rushed into Bai Xiaofan’s embrace with concern after he had dressed and come out. “It’s nothing, just a small mishap during cultivation. Are you dressed? Once you’re ready, I’ll take you out for a big meal!” Bai Xiaofan said, patting Chen Xiner with a smile. “I’m ready, just waiting for you!” On their way to dinner, Bai Xiaofan thought about the recent blood oath with the Fish Intestine Sword and shivered. Damn, if he hadn’t slammed his Xian Yuan into it at the last moment, his body’s blood might have been completely drained by the Fish Intestine Sword. Instead of a successful bond, he could have turned into a dried-up corpse. This Fish Intestine Sword, Bai Xiaofan wondered what was wrong with it; just to accept a master, damn it, it had absorbed so much blood. He even doubted whether it was a bottomless pit. Looking at the small sword imprint that appeared on his left wrist, Bai Xiaofan closed his eyes in satisfaction, leaning back slightly to rest for a while. “Feifei, how would you describe our relationship?” While eating, Bai Xiaofan placed some food on Jiang Feifei’s plate with a fawning smile. “What do you want? What’s your purpose? Are you coveting my beauty?” Jiang Feifei held her hands protectively in front of her, warily eyeing Bai Xiaofan. “How could that be?” “Here’s the thing, do you know of any underground auctions or something similar in our South River City? I have some nice items I’d like to sell!” Bai Xiaofan leaned in close to Jiang Feifei with a sly smile, revealing his intentions. “Selling something? What are you selling? If you’re selling yourself, I might consider buying you!” Jiang Feifei said, eating the food Bai Xiaofan had served her and turning to look at him. “I’ve refined some pills myself. Some treat men’s ailments, some for women’s; some for external injuries, and some for internal ones. There are even magical artifacts that can be used for attacks!” Bai Xiaofan didn’t hide anything from Jiang Feifei and told her truthfully. “Are those items expensive? I think my old man would be interested!” “Quite expensive. By my estimate, they might sell for fifty million, because that magical artifact I have can kill experts like your father or Zhen Wei!” “Wait a moment for me, I’ll call my father and ask!” Jiang Feifei didn’t expect the artifact Bai Xiaofan mentioned to be so powerful and said after a moment’s thought. Jiang Feifei called Jiang Qianhe right in front of Bai Xiaofan. When she mentioned the artifact, even Bai Xiaofan could hear Jiang Qianhe’s excited voice over the phone. “My father said if you have time, you can come over now. He’s actually at Master Gu’s place looking to buy artifacts; he could take this chance to introduce Master Gu to you!” After hanging up the phone, Jiang Feifei conveyed Jiang Qianhe’s wishes to Bai Xiaofan. The three of them headed straight for Master Gu’s residence. As they made their way, from Jiang Feifei’s brief description, Bai Xiaofan surmised that this Master Gu was likely a cultivator proficient in Formations. Reportedly, Master Gu always has some peculiar items, either for offensive use or self-defense.
