Chapter 16 - Pills

Hua Heng's eyes twinkled like stars when she saw them. Hua Heng is overjoyed because she has finally found an interesting book, so she pulls it up. As she picks up the book, she notices a glint in the corner of her eye.

Hua Heng stretches her hands and takes the shining thing inside because she is fascinated. The gleaming object was a golden box.

The box is decorated with strange carvings and gems. The box was simply stunning and mystifying.

Rou Hua Heng became intrigued and opened the box. In the box are two little vials containing pills that sparkle like jewels inside.

"T-this is..." Hua Heng doesn't know what to say and looks at the old man

The old man grins widely and said," It's a Dan pill"

Jackpot!

Hua Heng praises all the Gods she knows to the tenth level as her eyes sparkle and she smiles widely, brightening her surroundings and that make others fall in love with her.

The old man was a little taken aback, but he smiled and sighed.

~HEH! This girl was so charming and beautiful that it's no surprise she got chosen fufu.~

"Miss, those pills are pricey; do you want it?" he inquires.

Of course, Hua Heng nodded and placed all of the items she want to purchase on the counter for the old man to count.

"In total, you must pay 2 gold ingots."

"Aiyo! so expensive!" she says and pays her bills after paying she stuffs the items on her dimensional ring.

"Now, kind miss, please allow me to guide you," the old guy said with a smile.

"Huh?"

Rou Hua Heng felt dizzy and her vision blurred.

It's spinning once again?

What the heck is going on?!

She blinks, and then she hears noises.

In a haze, she found herself back in the busy capital. She looks around, but the antique shop is nowhere to be found as if it has vanished from the face of the earth. Rou Hua Heng frowns as she considers how the shop appears in front of her magically and recalls the items she purchased.

"What about the pills?" she panics

She checks her ring and discovers that the items are present, sighing.

"That shop was so weird," she mused as she continued to walk towards the inn where she is presently staying to retrieve her horse and drive away.

After all, she got what she wanted, so she can't afford to waste any more time.

She is eager to cultivate right now!

Hua Heng left the bustling city after retrieving her horse, but she became aware that someone was watching her. Her location was open, and the road to her camp was nearly deserted, as no one dared to venture due to the possibility of a beast lurking at any time.

Her instinct was very sensitive, and she felt that person was not even near to her, but the eyes that were looking at her were quite intense as if that person would attack her at any moment. Hua Heng intends to pursue that individual in order to speak with him or her about gazing at other individuals or to inquire about his or her problem but she decides not to. Hua Heng ignored the intense stare as if that person is air and continue her destination to go back to her camp.

Keeping an eye on the person who is galloping towards the forest on a horse. The electric blue eyes turned away, and just as quickly as they had appeared, the man who had been standing on top of the tallest structure vanished.
