Chapter 339: Shadows Under the Moonlight

Ling Wanqing looked around the trading assembly; many people had gathered here.

There were all sorts of peculiar performances, and many Profound Heaven Sect Disciples were patrolling the area to maintain order and ensure the stability of the assembly.

People of all cultivation levels were present, which showed that this assembly had indeed attracted many people.

Su Yu observed the situation; this was even livelier than the ones he had attended before.

This was likely because the Profound Heaven Sect was hosting it this time; the reputation of the Profound Heaven Sect certainly had an influence on this to some extent.

Noisy crowds were everywhere.

Han Ting quickly spoke up, "Let's go in and take a look around; it looks like this time will be quite interesting."

Su Yu and the other followed Han Ting inside.

Many people had laid out their items on the ground and were calling out the things they needed.

Those who possessed such items would generally stop to see if the person calling out had something they could use.

If both parties were satisfied, they could generally make an exchange.

Su Yu looked at the items on the ground; if it were in the past, there might have been things he could use.

But now, there was basically nothing.

The same was true for Ling Wanqing and Han Ting, though the two of them might still encounter some things they could use.

Just then, Han Ting arrived in front of a stall filled with items.

Seeing the three of them, the vendor quickly spoke up, "Take a look and see if you need anything; you can exchange for it with just one Spirit Pill."

A Spirit Pill? This kind of item was one of the rarer Medicinal Pills. He actually had quite a few Spirit Pills stored in his space; he had refined many Medicinal Pills back then just to pile up his proficiency.

He even had some Peerless Grade Medicinal Pills.

Su Yu glanced at the items the person in front of him had available for exchange.

Some actually had decent effects. Su Yu looked at one item—it was a sword scabbard.

This sword scabbard had Heaven Rank quality and some special enhancement effects; it could be said that this effect could bring unexpected bonuses to Han Ting's Sword Drawing Technique.

However, this sword scabbard had obviously been concealed; otherwise, it wouldn't have been placed here on the road to be used for exchange.

Ling Wanqing also discovered the uniqueness of this sword scabbard; one wouldn't be able to tell without looking closely.

Han Ting did not hesitate and pointed at the sword scabbard, asking, "Is this also one Spirit Pill?"

The man quickly looked over. What was that? He had thought it was something good, but it was just an ordinary sword scabbard he had obtained in the Ancient Secret Realm back then.

At the time, he had thought it was something good, but after studying it for a while, he found it was completely useless.

"That's right, also one Spirit Pill."

Fearing that Han Ting might change her mind, the man added, "Don't underestimate this thing; it came from the Ancient Secret Realm that appeared last time, and it is said to have quite extraordinary special effects."

Of course, he was just saying that to bluff the person in front of him.

Han Ting did not hesitate; she tossed down a Spirit Pill and put the sword scabbard away.

The moment Han Ting held the sword scabbard in her hand, she was even more certain of its benefits. She really hadn't misjudged it; she hadn't expected to actually find something good by coming here.

After leaving the area, Han Ting said, "Uncle Yu, I picked up a bargain. That sword scabbard is no ordinary item; with that sword scabbard, my strength might even improve by two levels."

Su Yu feigned surprise, "Is that so?"

Han Ting nodded happily, "Let's look around some more."

Han Ting became even more expectant about the rest of the process.

After the three of them had walked around for a while, Ling Wanqing stopped when she reached a certain spot.

Ling Wanqing felt a strange ripple.

Ling Wanqing arrived at someone's stall.

Su Yu and Han Ting followed over. Han Ting looked at Ling Wanqing, "Big Sister Ling, did you see something you like?"

Ling Wanqing nodded and looked at the items in the stall. Had the ripple disappeared?

Ling Wanqing focused on examining the items in front of her and sensing that ripple.

The vendor looked at the three of them, "No rush, take your time looking. Tell me once you've chosen."

Han Ting felt that there wasn't anything good in this stall.

Seeing Ling Wanqing like this, Su Yu knew that something must have attracted her.

Su Yu activated his Illusory World Eye.

So that was it; it was actually Xuan Water.

This item was of immense help to Ling Wanqing right now; fusing this item with the innate mysterious ice could enhance its effects.

No wonder Ling Wanqing had stopped to sense these things.

Soon, Ling Wanqing locked her gaze onto a stone.

It was just a yellow Spirit Stone, which was also a very rare item, and inside that yellow Spirit Stone was a drop of Xuan Water.

Ling Wanqing looked at this yellow Spirit Stone, "How do I exchange for this?"

Seeing that the woman in front of him had made her choice, the vendor said, "I don't know if Your Excellency has a Cloud Immortal Branch; I need this item."

A Cloud Immortal Branch—she didn't have this item. This was also a relatively rare item, and its growth conditions were extremely harsh.

"I don't have a Cloud Immortal Branch. I wonder if I can exchange for it with something else?"

Ling Wanqing prepared to take out some other items for exchange; she was determined to acquire this Xuan Water.

The vendor looked a bit troubled.

At this moment, Su Yu spoke up, "I have a Cloud Immortal Branch."

Ling Wanqing looked at Su Yu, "Forget it, I have other things I can exchange."

"It's fine. Just give me something else of similar value later; I don't have any use for this item."

Su Yu had a whole bunch of them in his space; sometimes Su Yu even used this stuff to start a fire.

Ling Wanqing thought for a moment, "Alright."

Su Yu then successfully exchanged for the yellow Spirit Stone containing the Xuan Water.

Ling Wanqing also gave Su Yu some items in exchange.

The three of them continued to stroll through the trading assembly, and Su Yu would occasionally exchange for some items as well.

Of course, this was just to put on a show for Ling Wanqing and the others. Just as Su Yu had expected, there was nothing in here that he could use.

Han Ting looked at the two of them, "Is there anything else you need?"

Su Yu and Ling Wanqing shook their heads.

Han Ting then said, "How about we set up a stall and see? We have plenty of things we don't use anyway; it wouldn't be bad to trade them away."

Su Yu nodded.

Su Yu still had experience with setting up stalls, not to mention Su Ling'er, that little expert at setting up stalls. If Ling Wanqing and the other weren't around, Su Yu would have let Su Ling'er come out.

Ling Wanqing felt that it would be fine to experience it as well.

With that said, the three of them set up their stall, which had quite a few items on it.

As time passed, many people came to Su Yu's side to exchange items.

As the assembly came to an end, the three of them left the place.

For Ling Wanqing, this experience was truly something she had never encountered before.

The same was true for Han Ting.

Han Ting said, "That was truly interesting."

The three of them returned to the Profound Heaven Sect. After Han Ting said goodbye to the two of them, she left.

Ling Wanqing and Su Yu then walked on the path home.

The two strolled under the bright moonlight, which stretched their shadows long and thin.

Ling Wanqing looked at Su Yu in front of her, somewhat lost in thought.

Su Yu suddenly noticed that Ling Wanqing had been watching him the whole time. Su Yu touched his face, thinking there might be something on it.

"What is it?"

Ling Wanqing came back to her senses and chuckled lightly, "It's nothing; let's go, let's go home."
