"I said your store is too stingy, huh? One hundred spirit crystals for hot water?" Gu Yunxi said jokingly and kindly.
She felt like the store was trying to pull a fast one on them.
Yao Ziyan was already familiar with this reaction and didn't seem phased at all.
She chuckled softly, "After you've used the hot water, you'll realize this lark crystal is worth every bit. If it feels worthless at that time, you won't owe a cent."
Yao Ziyan had made her point, and the two couldn't refuse anymore.
Jiang Wanshang nodded, "Fair point."
Then, following Yao Ziyan's instructions, they operated the hot water machine.
Watching the hot water gushing out, accompanied by wisps of steam, the two girls were fixated on the flow.
"Vitality spring water?! It's actually vitality spring water!"
Finally, the two exclaimed.
"Of course," Yao Ziyan nodded matter-of-factly, "I've said it before, it's worth the price."
Gu Yunxi and Jiang Wanshang exchanged looks, both noticing the slight twitch at the corners of each other's eyes.
Is it worth the price? It's more than worth it!
And probably worth much more!
Vitality spring water is quite rare. Every time it appears in auctions, it fetches a high price.
Even with their status, it's impossible to indulge in such a luxury.
"How are you feeling now?" Yao Ziyan asked with a smile, "Does the price of one hundred spirit crystals seem reasonable?"
The two nodded eagerly.
More than reasonable, now it seems like Bai Lingjing is practically giving away vitality springs!
"Now that the hot water is added, just wait five minutes," Yao Ziyan said.
Gu Yunxi and Jiang Wanshang set aside the instant noodles and approached the shelf.
If the instant noodles in this store have such a remarkable effect, then the other products must be just as incredible, right?
The two carefully examined the product descriptions.
Soon, the sound of gasping filled the air.
"Instant recovery from injuries, improvement in realm, and even vitality enhancement?!"
Gu Yunxi and Jiang Wanshang were astounded.
These items, if sold elsewhere, could easily fetch high prices at auctions.
But here, the cheapest item was only selling for ten spirit crystals.
As for items that could even bring someone back to life, those were unheard of.
They realized that this store was full of surprises.
"Hey, it's a shame there's a rule that you can only purchase each item once a day," Jiang Wanshang lamented.
As a member of the wealthy Jiang family, Jiang Wanshang was loaded with tens of thousands of spirit crystals at least.
If there were no rules, she would have bought out the entire store's stock.
Unfortunately, the store owner was a stickler for rules.
Gu Yunxi had almost the same thought in her mind.
The two turned their gaze to Luo Chuan, who was immersed in the Tower of Trial, with a hint of resentment in their eyes.
In the Tower of Trial, Luo Chuan, shielded from the outside world, shuddered involuntarily, feeling a sense of unease.
But he quickly shook it off and refocused on the monster in front of him.
"I want to get a pack of spicy strips and a bottle of Coke!" Gu Yunxi said.
"Me too!" Jiang Wanshang chimed in.
Simultaneously, the two cast longing glances towards Qiongjianglu's position.
The price of 100,000 Lingjing was indeed steep, and they couldn't afford it with their current resources.
But if they pooled their spirit crystals together, perhaps they could borrow from their fellow students who likely had plenty to spare!
