Chapter 9 - Chapter 9 : Trying the spicy strips

Bu Shiyi stopped talking and walked into the store, with Bu Lige quickly following her.

As Luo Chuan had anticipated, after seeing the store's decor, Bu Shiyi's reaction mirrored Bu Lige's initial surprise. Her eyes widened in awe at the sight of the shelves.

"Such pure colored glaze used only as shelves. This shop isn't as simple as it seems."

"Everything is on the shelves; help yourself," Luo Chuan said, yawning on the recliner and pointing around the store. Then he added, "By the way, our store has newly added spicy strips. You might want to check them out."

"Spicy strips?"

Bu Lige was slightly startled. His eyes swept across the store and soon landed on several red-packaged bags on one of the shelves.

"Sister, let's go and have a look!" Bu Lige couldn't hide the excitement in his eyes and walked over with Bu Shiyi.

Considering Coke had such a significant effect, what could these so-called spicy strips do?

Feeling a bit helpless, Bu Shiyi maintained her calm demeanor and followed Bu Lige to the container with the spicy strips.

"Spicy strips: After consumption, they can increase the energy of the body by a small level for a short time, stacking up to five times, and cannot exceed the major level. Duration: 1 minute. Price: 100 Lingjing."

Bu Shiyi's red lips parted slightly as she read out the introduction.

The two exchanged glances and were silent for a moment, but the shock in their eyes was evident.

Bu Shiyi quickly composed herself, picked up a bag of spicy strips, and asked Luo Chuan, "Boss, does this spicy strip truly have the effects mentioned in the introduction? Are there any side effects?"

According to Bu Shiyi's experience, anything that could increase energy levels in such a short time would typically have significant side effects.

Contrary to her expectations, Luo Chuan shook his head indifferently. "The effects are exactly as described. If there's any discrepancy, you're welcome to complain. As for side effects... there are none."

None?

Typically, methods that stimulate one's potential—whether through pills or techniques—have some side effects. Yet the owner of this small shop claimed that these spicy strips had none, piquing Bu Shiyi's interest.

"Li Ge, how many spirit crystals did you bring?" Bu Shiyi turned to Bu Lige.

Bu Lige was taken aback for a moment, then replied, "Exactly one hundred spirit crystals."

"Very good." Bu Shiyi nodded, a smile appearing on her face.

With a wave of her hand, a silver-white ring appeared in her palm.

Bu Lige stared at it for a moment, then quickly looked at his own palm, feeling a bit like crying without tears. "Sister, that's my spatial ring..."

The Space Ring is a rare item in Tianlan Continent, with an internal space for storing items. The larger the space, the rarer it is, and of course, the more expensive it becomes.

As far as Luo Chuan knew, the value of a space ring with about one cubic meter of space was at least a few thousand spirit crystals. They were often priceless when available.

From this, it was clear that Bu Lige and Bu Shiyi's identities were far from ordinary.

However, Luo Chuan was only mildly curious and didn't place much importance on their identities.

"One hundred Lingjing, for one pack of spicy strips and one bottle of Coke."

Bu Shiyi took a pack of spicy strips and a bottle of Coke from the shelf, then walked to Luo Chuan, handing over a small pile of Lingjing from the space ring.

Luo Chuan nodded and took the spirit crystals that Bu Shiyi offered.

"Sister, aren't you going to try it?" Bu Lige asked.
