As if sensing something, the gloomy blonde youth raised his head, his gaze meeting a pair of eyes full of playful mockery.
"!"
A look of surprise appeared on Dai Huabin's face.
Why wasn't An Zhen dead?
"The little cat is very moist."
An Zhen said something that sounded a bit strange to others, a smile playing on his lips.
Bastard!
Dai Huabin's bandaged hand clenched into a fist, the unhealed wound split open, blood flowed out, and his gloomy eyes stared fixedly at An Zhen.
In the splendid hall, the gloomy youth, holding back his anger, slunk off to another area.
It seems his mind isn't completely broken yet.
An Zhen mused thoughtfully.
It's fine, I'll give you a hand.
"What's wrong?"
The gentle beauty slowly walked over.
"Nothing, just deriving some pleasure from other people's suffering." An Zhen had never been a magnanimous person when it came to those who harbored ill intentions towards him.
Zhang Lexuan knew a bit about the conflict between An Zhen and Dai Huabin.
"Little cat? Who are you talking about?"
Wang Dong'er looked at An Zhen suspiciously, "Zhu Lu?"
"No."
An Zhen's gaze fell on Wang Dong'er's pink and blue dreamlike hair, "I'm not interested in other people's little cats; it would be nice if I had a little cat of my own."
"Then keep dreaming."
Wanting her to pretend to be a little cat, what a dream.
Making a playful face, the girl jogged forward and walked side by side with Huo Yutong.
The blonde young lady beside them seemed thoughtful.
"Mr. An, Ms. Huo, you two have been upgraded to our Treasure Gathering Pavilion's top-tier VIPs. Any consumption in our store will receive a 40% discount, and you can receive one free item from our Treasure Appreciation Event each year." The adorable girl looked at them with fervent eyes, handing over two crimson warm jade cards.
"The Treasure Gathering Pavilion is an academy property, and all related matters, including your membership levels, are determined by the academy," Zhang Lexuan explained from the side.
Aside from An Zhen and Huo Yutong, and Gu Yuena who hadn't received a card, the others all had purple cards.
Zhang Lexuan and An Zhen were in one group. After their qualification levels were verified, the girls each headed to the areas they were interested in, to see if there were any treasures suitable for them at this Treasure Appreciation Event.
An Zhen directly used his quota to exchange for a Golden Radiance Left Arm Bone worth over nine million gold coins, then bought a thousand-year Whale Gel Flower that looked to be of poor quality for six thousand gold coins. A red cloth with gold trim covered the Spirit Bone that was on display, indicating it had been purchased, and the item was handed over to An Zhen in a private transaction room.
With Zhang Lexuan by his side, he wasn't worried about being robbed in Shrek City.
"For Wang Dong?" Zhang Lexuan asked softly. Besides An Zhen absorbing it himself, Wang Dong, whose Spirit had light attributes, was the most suitable for this Spirit Bone.
"Mm."
An Zhen nodded lightly.
There were many good things at the Treasure Appreciation Event, but for An Zhen now, they were somewhat redundant. Immortal Herbs? There was the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well in the Virtual World. Spirit Bones? The best quality one was that Golden Radiance. Besides external Spirit Bones, An Zhen's minimum requirement for other Spirit Bones was at least a hundred thousand years. spirit tool blueprints? The third young master of Mingde Hall was here.
"Xiao Xiao~"
An Zhen hugged his girlfriend from behind.
"What are you looking at?"
His chin resting on Xiao Xiao's shoulder, the girl's body fragrance wafted to An Zhen's nose. An Zhen looked at the Spirit Bone in front of him, which was the treasure Xiao Xiao was looking at.
A fifty-thousand-year Soft Bones Rabbit Right Leg Bone. An extremely rare Soft Bones Rabbit with a cultivation of sixty thousand years. The Spirit Bone's Spirit Ability was Teleportation, allowing instant movement within a certain range.
"Not bad."
It was very useful for both combat and self-preservation.
Xiao Xiao glanced at the price below and gave up.
Four million five hundred thousand gold coins.
If it were an ordinary ten-thousand-year Soft Bones Rabbit Spirit Bone, this price would naturally be expensive, but with the Teleportation Spirit Ability, it was very reasonable.
"The Soft Bones Rabbit Spirit Bone isn't suitable for me." With a sweet smile on her cute face, Xiao Xiao took An Zhen's hand to go in another direction, "Let's go look at other things."
"How can a Tool Spirit Master pick Spirit Bones based on the Spirit Beast species?"
An Zhen gently tapped the girl's forehead.
He had bought a Spirit Bone for Wang Dong, and now seeing one suitable for Xiao Xiao, he naturally wouldn't favor one over the other.
"Wait a moment."
An Zhen, who had originally intended to sell some ten-thousand-year Immortal Herbs to raise money or find Ning Tian, suddenly remembered something.
An Zhen found Gu Yuena, who was eating desserts from the Treasure Appreciation Event.
"Do you have Spirit Bones?"
His Soul Voice rang out.
"Spirit Bones? Yes, Di Tian said that after coming to the human World, I could exchange those things for money. I took some from Red King." Gu Yuena responded with her mental force. As for selling the bones of her own kind for money… these weren't true dragons, nor were they fierce beasts. Who were her kind? Food couldn't speak.
Red King? Dogs do like bones.
An Zhen remembered that Red King's true form was a Three-Headed Red Demonic Hound.
"Get some."
Gu Yuena looked at An Zhen with her purple starry eyes, swallowed the small cake in her hand in three bites, and then, with a swipe of her finger on the storage spirit tool on her wrist, released the mental imprint and directly handed the spirit tool to An Zhen.
"Take it."
An Zhen held the storage spirit tool, which still carried the girl's body warmth. His mental force probed inside, finding a pile of clothes, a pile of snacks, a few savings cards. In a corner of the spirit tool's space, An Zhen found three Spirit Bones emitting extraordinary spiritual light.
Unfortunately, there was no Right Leg Bone.
With a 40% discount on his status, An Zhen used Gu Yuena's card to buy the Soft Bones Rabbit Spirit Bone for 2.6 million. He hadn't expected his little dragon girl to be a rich woman; Gu Yuena said it was all tribute from Di Tian.
Gu Yuena, noticing that most of her savings had disappeared, glared at An Zhen with a fierce, kitten-like expression.
"I'll compensate you tonight."
The energy of the Ice-Fire Yin-Yang Ball.
"Alright."
Gu Yuena happily picked up another dessert.
The Treasure Appreciation Event ended.
"Oh, I just saw a Golden Radiance Spirit Bone, but then it was sold," Wang Dong said regretfully.
Besides Ning Tian, who picked up a few small bargains using the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda's treasure appraisal ability, no one else bought much. Huo Yutong did want to buy some spirit tool design blueprints, but they were too advanced for him to use yet.
An Zhen didn't speak.
He was busy with something.
Revenge.
In the Virtual World.
After hearing An Zhen's plan, even the Dead Spirit Saint God felt his disciple was a bit extreme.
For men with a bit of a patriarchal mindset, this truly was a terrifying torment.
"Death is a final release, but every second of living is torment."
An Zhen put down the book on male and female anatomy he was holding.
How to get revenge? Break all his bones? Kill him? Imprison his consciousness?
A certain God King's actions in the original novel gave An Zhen a new idea.
"Alright."
An Zhen looked at the fellow in front of him, who bore some resemblance to the White Tiger Duke's wife.
First Spirit Ability: Reflection.
...
"Ah!"
In the night, Dai Huabin, who was walking along the road, suddenly let out a scream. He felt a piece of flesh fall into his pants, and an extremely painful sensation continuously came from his body, as if many of his organs were being cut and reformed.
...
"It seems the theory is feasible."
Now the White Tiger Duke's wife had both a son and a daughter.
An Zhen truly was a good person.
If he were to open a plastic surgery hospital, tsk, it felt like tens of millions of gold coins wouldn't be hard to achieve.
In reality, half of An Zhen's spirit power instantly disappeared.
Arrived home.
Gu Yuena took the sweet treats she had "borrowed" and returned to her bedroom to await the night.
"Dong'er, this is yours."
An Zhen took out the Spirit Bone.
"Golden Radiance?!"
Wang Dong was surprised, "So it was you who bought it."
A surprised look also flashed in the eyes of the other girls.
"Here."
"It's too precious."
An Zhen reached out and gently pinched the girl's soft cheek, his tone sincere with a hint of doting, "We're family now, and nothing is more precious than Dong'er. And if we're talking about preciousness, Immortal Herbs are much more valuable than this."
That's true.
Ning Tian and the other girls remembered the treasures they had received from An Zhen, such priceless treasures given directly to them.
The pink and blue dreamlike girl lowered her head, as if having made some decision. Her two fair hands clasped together in front of her chest, her blushing cheeks playfully parted to reveal her small fangs, "Meow~"
An Zhen was hard-controlled.
Wang Dong'er threw herself into An Zhen's arms, leaving a mark on the youth's lips, then, taking the Spirit Bone, she fled back to her bedroom as if escaping.
So cute...
"Xiao Xiao, this is yours."
An Zhen took out the Soft Bones Rabbit Spirit Bone.
"Huh?"
Xiao Xiao was a bit bewildered.
"Next time you want something, tell me, Xiao Xiao. We are family, you can rely on me as much as you want." An Zhen tucked the pink glowing Spirit Bone into Xiao Xiao's arms.
A complex spiritual light flashed in Xiao Xiao's bright eyes. The sudden surprise and happiness enveloped the girl. She proactively offered her fragrant kiss, "When that night comes, Xiao Xiao, I…"
The thin-skinned girl was too embarrassed to continue speaking in front of her other sisters. She hugged the Spirit Bone and scurried back to her room.
The girl with the forest-green ponytail sat cross-legged on her bed, wearing white socks, her cheeks flushed red.
Family, rely on An Zhen?
In the living room, An Zhen took out a section of black crystal.
"Whale Gel?"
Ning Tian looked at the very poor-quality Whale Gel and said with some confusion.
"Mm, but it's actually ten thousand years old, but the Treasure Gathering Pavilion treated it as a thousand-year one. I saw it at teacher's place before." He casually made up an excuse, then, reflecting Wu Feng's Spirit, a ball of violent dragon flames melted the black crystal.
"Who wants to eat?"
Zhang Lexuan gently shook her head, "It's no longer useful to me."
Ning Tian: "I've eaten thousand-year ones before; I have resistance to these kinds of things now."
"Then Wu Feng, Yu Tong, you two share it."
An Zhen looked at Ning Tian and Zhang Lexuan, "Your gifts will have to wait until later."
The blonde young lady gently shook her head, her blue eyes gazing at the youth with affection. She linked her arm through An Zhen's, "An Zhen has already given me the best thing."
"Mm."
The black-haired long-haired senior sister nodded in agreement.
Night.
The senior sister, dressed in black gauze, entered An Zhen's bedroom.
"Wu Feng is absorbing the Whale Gel; we switched times."
A pair of black-stockinged jade feet stepped onto the bed. The passionate beauty skillfully threw herself into her lover's arms and began to "demand."
Lights out.
The window of An Zhen's bedroom was pried open again at the same time.
Gu Yuena climbed through the window into the room.
"Hm?"
Something seemed off.
The woman on the bed's consciousness did not enter An Zhen's World as the others had before; instead, she was doing with An Zhen what they had done on previous nights.
Kneeling on the bed, Zhang Lexuan, whose consciousness had not entered the Virtual World, looked at the silver-haired girl.
Their eyes met.
"Together?"
Draft! Draft! Draft!
