BXBX NOVEL Chapter 122: A little shopping!
The Ling elders were curious to know about his cultivation stage, but thinking that it would be rude to ask, they stayed silent on that topic.
Zhao Tian took another sip of the tea and Ling Meiying turned her eyes to him "Senior Tian, you said that you came to meet our Sect Master, is there any reason for that or just a simple visit?"
Ling Xin raised her eyebrows curiously and Zhao Tian nodded his head "Yeah, I came to see Ling Xin because I need help from her."
Hearing this, a smile appeared on Ling Xin's face and she asked in excitement "Mr.Tian, tell me what help you need, I will surely do that!"
"I could not repay the favor for saving me, so this would be a great opportunity to pay you back!"
With a faint smile, Zhao Tian spoke, "I want a herb called Phoenix blood Astragalus flower for refining a pill."
Hearing the name, Ling Xin frowned and Ling Chen muttered "I... haven't heard a herb like that. What about you Sister Ying?"
Ling Meiying shook her head "No, Sister... I haven't heard that name either. Sister Huang?"
Ling Huang rolled her eyes "No!"
Zhao Tian looked at them calling each other as Sister, seems like in front of the disciples they call each other 'Elder', and in private they call each other Sister.
Ling Xin spoke with a slight frown "Maybe we can ask in the Shun Company main branch, near the Royal Palace. They might have it there."
The others also nodded upon hearing this and at this time, Ling Huang giggled "First we have to buy some robes for Little Brother, this dress looks weird on him."
Ling Xin chuckled "Well, Mr.Tian is from outside of our Zhenzhu." Ling Huang nodded her head "Then, how about this Little brother? we can go shopping and buy some clothes for you."
Zhao Tian didn't mind that and gave a nod "Sure!"
"Ok, let me go and wear my veil!" Ling Huang excitedly jumped up from her seat and quickly made her way to her room. Ling Xin shook her head helplessly seeing the enthusiastic Ling Huang.
*woosh* A long blue sword appeared in Zhao Tian's hand and everyone was instantly captivated by the strong aura emanating from the sword/
Ling Xin's eyes quivered seeing the sword "This... why does it seem more powerful than a Heaven Grade weapon." she wondered, her confusion deepening.
Zhao Tian spoke "That's because this is an Epic Grade weapon."
H-Huh? This bewildered everyone in the room "T-There is a grade above Heaven grade?"
"We never heard about it!"
They were all puzzled but they didn't doubt Zhao Tian's words because they could clearly see the sharp and powerful aura from that sword.
"Oh, there are grades above Heaven grade..." he muttered and tossed the sword at Ling Chen. "Here!"
"Huh?" Ling Chen was slightly startled and caught the sword. She raised her gaze looking at Zhao Tian rather confused.
Zhao Tian spoke "Since I broke your sword, you can keep that..."
"Oh!" Ling Chen looked at the sword in her hand. "Is it really ok? It is a grade above Heaven grade." A calm tone enveloped her words, yet her eyebrows furrowed slightly.
Zhao Tian gave a nod "It's okay and the sword is actually suitable for cultivators who use ice."
Hm? Ling Chen responded with a soft hum, running her finger delicately along the icy blue blade and sensing the coldness radiating from it. "Yes, it's good for me," she murmured her face remaining indifferent.
Ling Meiying's curiosity got the better of her as she extended her hand to feel the cold, sharp blade of the sword "It's cold, it should be suitable for her." she remarked, a faint smile playing on her lips.
Ling Chen slightly bowed her head "Thank you for this, Senior Tian. I'll gratefully accept this."
Ling Xin smiled seeing this and turned to Ling Chao remembering something "Chao'er what about the ingredient Huang asked to refine the pill?"
"U-Uh?" Ling Chao stuttered and looked around searching for the Golden Sunflower. Eh? Only then did she realize that she must have accidentally dropped it while climbing the stairs with Zhao Tian constantly trying to pull him.
"I-I lost it." she uttered and then a sigh left her lips. Ling Chen squinted her eyes "You were with Senior Tian when he came to the Sect right?"
Ling Chao smiled wryly and took a quick glance at Zhao Tian before explaining the situation that happened.
"Haha!" Ling Xin laughed hearing how Ling Chao got fooled by Zhao Tian in the pillshop. Zhao Tian smiled "I can give you the Golden Sunflower."
"Really?" Ling Chao's eyes lit up in happiness and Zhao Tian nodded his head "Yeah!"
"Thank you, Senior!"
At this time, Ling Huang came wearing a veil on her face "Little brother, shall we go?" Zhao Tian stood up and turned to Ling Xin "Ling Xin, we can go to the Shun company after I return."
Ling Xin nodded her head with a smile "Sure!"
As both Zhao Tian and Ling Huang left a deep sigh escaped Ling Chao's lips and she couldn't help but utter "How can Senior Tian be so powerful and have high-grade weapons when he looks the same age as me?"
Ling Chen narrowed her eyes "I am also wondering about that!" she admitted, her tone laced with intrigue.
"Hahahaha!" Ling Xin suddenly burst into laughter upon hearing their remarks, causing the three others to be confused and surprised by their Sect master's weird behavior.
"Uh, Sect master?"
"Haha... um haha..." Ling Xin slowly controlled her laugh and spoke chuckling "Chao'er, you should not even call him Senior, he is way younger than you. He is just 21 years old."
"WHAT!" Ling Chao shouted in shock and Ling Chen and Ling Meiying were also utterly shocked hearing Ling Xin's words.
Ling Chen, who had been completely indifferent up until this point, could not contain her surprise and blurted out "There is no way that's possible... He is above Heaven Astral Stage and he is just... 21 years old?"
If Zhao Tian was here he would have surely laughed seeing the kind of face she was making.
Ling Meiying snapped out of her shock "Sect master, is this... true?"
Ling Xin shrugged "Why do I have to lie to you? I looked at his bone age myself and he is really 21 years old."
"And he killed all those Wyrns in a single attack which we struggled to even escape."
While she was talking about his attacks, she remembered something else "By the way, he actually has control over four elements."
"WHAT THE ACTUAL-"
...
Ling Huan was constantly smiling as she spoke "Yeah, since I have fire elemental I would refine pills for the disciples. Don't underestimate me, my pills have 95 percent purity and I can refine them up to Low tier heaven grade!" she spoke puffing up her chest with a proud smirk.
As he observed her playful antics, Zhao Tian couldn't help but chuckle, thoroughly entertained by her playful antics. With a smile on his face, he walked alongside her, enjoying their time together as they made their way to the shop.
Standing in front of a clothes shop Ling Huang spoke "This is one of the biggest shops in the Royal Capital, come on Little Brother!"
As they entered, the woman at the reception showed a professional smile "Welcome!" and as her eyes fell on Zhao Tian, a glint of surprise flashed across her face.
In a rush, she swiftly came from the receptionist area and warmly welcomed them, beckoning them to enter "Please come in." Ling Huang spoke, "I want to buy some robes for my little brother here."
"Sure, please follow me." Both of them followed in and the woman looked at the saleswoman who was in charge "Xin'er, this customer needs a robe for him."
The saleswoman turned her eyes and as she saw Zhao Tian, she flared up with enthusiasm "Customer, are you the one who needs the robes?"
"Um, yeah!" Zhao Tian nodded his head.
A wide smile appeared on the saleswoman's face and she ran inside at full speed and came outside, with a pristine white robe with some blue accents in them.
She approached Zhao Tian beaming with excitement "Esteemed customer, can you please wear this once?"
Ling Huang also glanced at the robe "Little brother try it once!"
Zhao Tian took the robe from her hands and nodded "Okay!' he said entering the dressing room.
After a while, he came out draped in white robes and seeing him, the saleswoman's eyes widened in surprise "This,.. is it. This is it! I have been safeguarding this robe for a perfect customer and Mister you are the one! I AM SO HAPPYYYY!!!"
"M-Mister please, wait... I'll bring more. I am sure those will look good on you!"
Zhao Tian nodded his head "Okay!"
"Thank you, Thank you so much! Please wait for a minute, I'll be back!"
Ling Huang walked near Zhao Tian, "You look even more handsome, Little brother. That old clothes didn't suit you well." she quipped, playfully teasing him.
Zhao Tian just smiled hearing her compliment and the saleswoman also came with different kinds of robes for Zhao Tian to wear.
"THIS IS GREAT!!"
"THIS TOO!!"
"AWESOME!"
"YOU LOOK DASHING IN EVERYTHING!"
"HAHAHA!!!"
"MY EYES ARE BLESSED!"
"YOU ARE THE HANDSOMENST MAN I'VE EVER SEEN!"
Zhao Tian selected many robes and asked the saleswoman "I also need to buy robes for women!"
"Surely, we can!"
Ling Huang got curious hearing this "Little brother, you have a partner?"
Zhao Tian nodded his head "I have some lovely women!"
"Hm." Ling Huang was not that surprised as handsome and powerful men tend to have many women.
"Come on, I'll buy a robe for you!" Hearing his words, Ling Huang didn't reject the offer and nodded her head "Okay!"
...
Zhao Tian paid for all the robes he purchased and stored them in the storage ring. Seeing the storage ring, the staff's attitude became more respectful. The saleswoman bowed and said "Please visit us again and I will have even more good robes for you!"
Stepping out of the shop, Ling Huang gazed at the violet robe on her hands with a sweet smile on her face. "Do you like it?"
Ling Huang nodded her head "Very much. here, can you keep it in your storage ring... I will buy it from you after reaching reaching the sect."
Zhao Tian took it and stored in his storage ring. Ling Huang muttered "How convenient to have a storage ring? *sigh* I wish I had one."
"Ling Chen had one, right?" Zhao Tian asked and Ling Huang nodded her head "Yeah, she got it as a present from Her Majesty for getting fifth place in the previous competition."
