Chapter 848: She’s not human (Part 3)
“That little girl, her aura isn’t that of a human’s.” Huo Ling said in a very certain voice.
Ye Yu Xi’s serious look became deeper.
Buying some herbs for Huo Ling, their group left the pharmacy.
Huo Ling’s discoveries pressed down on Ye Yu Xi’s heart, lingering in there.
She would ask Long Xiao Pang about this matter after getting back.
Moving through a few streets, they came to the underground market.
Compared to the underground market of the Ice Mist Country, Sun Mound City’s was bigger and more expensive. It cost two gold coins just for each person to enter.
Zhi, zhi.
When Huo Ling entered the chaotic space to eat his herbs, Zi Ling poked its head out of Ye Yu Xi’s sleeve.
“Master, this place isn’t bad.” Hei Feng Tian Zong looked around. The entrance was filled with stalls selling weapons.
Some stalls were displaying all kinds of ores and jade, some stalls were selling finished weapons.
Zhi, zhi.
The Purple Spiritual Flashing Lightning Minx sniffed the various metals and became more restless.
Zi Ling didn’t care about herbs, but it truly loved rare metals.
“You want to buy something to eat as well?” Ye Yu Xi looked at the little minx on her shoulder.
Zhi, zhi.
Zi Ling nodded, as its purple tongue licked its lips.
“Master, we’re going to walk around.” Hei Feng Tian Zong laughed as he spoke to Ye Yu Xi.
“Un, go ahead. I’ll be at the tea house behind me in two hours waiting for you.”
“Got it, master.” Hei Feng Tian Zong pulled Hei Sha into the crowd by the hand.
Seeing how close the two of them were, Ye Yu Xi’s heart was moved and she thought of Bai Jin Yi.
She didn’t know what Bai Jin Yi was doing right now.
After going to several stalls, they didn’t find anything Zi Ling wanted to eat.
Those stalls mainly had profound iron or steel, they didn’t even have mithril, so there was no need to mention something like zinc gold.
They came to another stall where the owner was an old man in his fifties. There was a blue cloth spread across the ground and there were unknown pieces of metal scattered on top of it.
Zhi, zhi.
Zi Ling called out at the things on the ground.
Un?
Ye Yu Xi stopped as Zi Ling on her shoulder jumped down, falling on the blue cloth.
The owner opened his eyes. Although he was old, his eyes were clear and astute, they didn’t seem clouded with age at all.
“Oh? Girl, this mix is yours?” The owner looked up at Ye Yu Xi.
Ye Yu Xi nodded as she leaned over to look at the pieces of metal on the ground.
“Spirit beasts that like metals are rarely seen and each one is a treasure. When miss goes out in the future, you should hide these kinds of things, it’s easy to cause trouble.” The owner looked at the snow white minx and a look of surprise appeared in his eyes.
“Thank you for senior’s concern.” Ye Yu Xi politely said.
Zhi, zhi.
Zi Ling looked over the pieces of metal on the ground and didn’t find one it liked. After giving disappointed cries, it went back into Ye Yu Xi’s arm.
“Your little minx should still be in its youth stage.” The owner looked at the little minx and revealed a smile.
“Senior recognizes this spirit beast?” Ye Yu Xi was surprised.
Long Xiao Pang had said that Purple Spiritual Flashing Lightning Minx, especially young ones were things that families fought over.
If a stall owner in the underground market could recognize the little minx this easily, Ye Yu Xi might have to consider keeping the little minx in the space from now on.
The owner looked at Zi Ling for a while before shaking his head, “This old man doesn’t know what specific race it is, but my old bones have been in this market for forty years. In these years, the minx on your shoulder is the seventh spirit beast that I’ve met that is sensitive to metals.”
