The Silver-Haired Woman slowly turned her face, and a crystal-clear droplet dripped down her neatly arranged bangs, tracing the curve of her delicate brows across her tender face.
Her black eyes coldly glanced around, yet they sparkled like stars, full of life. Her luscious red lips were lightly pursed, hinting at some displeasure.
As the two people by the pond locked eyes for a brief moment, a flurry of pink petals drifted down from somewhere above, swirling gently between them.
Li Xiaonan's eyes widened as he thought, It’s so similar! Isn’t this just Lu Ni Chang all grown up? A devilish figure with an angelic face, truly a perfect woman!
However, he lamented that her proportions were too striking; not even two hands could cover such captivating beauty.
"Are you still staring?" The woman noticed Li Xiaonan's gaze lingering on her and angrily splashed water with a swift motion of her hand.
"Well, isn’t it because the lady is beautiful?" He raised his hand, letting a floral dress fall onto the woman across from him.
He turned away and said, "I am Li Xiaonan. May I ask for your name, fair lady?"
The woman's face flushed red as she slowly lowered her head...
After a long while, there was no response from behind Li Xiaonan. He extended his senses outward.
What the heck! There’s a ghost behind me! There’s no one there!
What happened to that soft girl just now? Did she sneak away? At least she could have left a name or something!
"Sigh..." Li Xiaonan sighed helplessly and flew back toward the city in boredom.
If the Cloud Sky Pavilion is refreshing and elegant, then the Yellow Emperor's lair is truly "luxurious and grand."
The term "brilliantly resplendent" seems too mundane in front of these Celestial Palaces.
Agate, glass, jade—these materials have become the most ordinary building components, stacked in a specific order, presenting a bizarre spectacle under the sunlight.
"Rich people..." Li Xiaonan clicked his tongue, playing with a Purple Jade Piece in his fingers.
He had been bargaining all the way, collecting materials when he saw them, picking up equipment and elixirs, and even snatching Celestial Tea and Spiritual Fruit without hesitation. He didn't even know how much Celestial Stone he had spent.
Li Xiaonan had been shopping for three consecutive days, spending money like a faucet, completely oblivious to the pain of parting with it.
In his own words: After all, it's not my money; using it is just delightful! Saving money for others would be foolish!
He chuckled as he touched the purple jade piece in his hand, having also procured several types of celestial herbs with unique fragrances. His gaze drifted toward another store filled with magical artifacts.
A quick glance revealed an abundance of weapons and jewelry.
Li Xiaonan casually picked up an Armlet from the shelf. The golden rings were neatly arranged, simple yet elegant; by grade, it was a high-quality defensive item.
However, both its appearance and function felt somewhat lacking, leaving Li Xiaonan disappointed.
Just then, a shop assistant chimed in: "This magical artifact is suitable for women, especially those with long and slender arms."
At his words, a figure immediately flashed through Li Xiaonan's mind—Luna.
That girl loved wearing sleeveless dresses, and her two fair arms were indeed enticing. "Moreover," he recommended, "this Armlet has decent defensive capabilities and is currently only one hundred medium-grade Celestial Stones."
Li Xiaonan snapped back to reality and exclaimed loudly, "A hundred middle-grade Celestial Stones? You might as well go steal them! I can easily craft something better than that!"
The attendant's expression soured, and he awkwardly replied, "If you don't have the money or don't like it, just put down the item and leave."
Li Xiaonan shot him a cold glare.
How dare he say I don't have money? A mere Mortal Immortal dares to challenge me! What a death wish!
He took a deep breath and held out the purple jade token in front of the attendant.
The shopkeeper, who had been dozing off, opened his small green bean-like eyes, but his gaze was sharp.
With just a glance, he recognized the origin of the jade token.
This small purple jade piece may seem unremarkable, but it represented a Supreme status.
It was definitely a VIP Card!
Anyone who could produce such a purple jade card was a friend of the Yellow Emperor. No matter what they bought or how much they spent, the final bill would always be charged to the Yellow Emperor.
And what was Gai Huang Star? Wasn't it established by the Yellow Emperor himself?
If he could build good relations with these big shots, wouldn't he be able to walk freely in Gai Huang Star in the future?
The shopkeeper excitedly jumped out from behind the counter, shoving aside the attendant.
With a beaming smile plastered on his shiny face, he said, "This kid doesn't know any better; please forgive him. Feel free to choose anything here. Take whatever you like; we can negotiate on the price!"
"No need, just give me a Meditation Room. I want to refine some things," Li Xiaonan waved his hand.
He truly looked down on these goods.
Following the Shopkeeper, he entered a soundproof room with metal walls on all sides and couldn't help but rub his hands together.
It had been a while since he last refined any equipment, and he was feeling a bit eager. It was also the perfect opportunity to prepare a gift for the Yellow Emperor's wife.
Li Xiaonan took out the Refining Materials he had previously acquired and began to melt them down using Nine Yin True Fire, eliminating impurities.
One had to admit that the materials from the Immortal Realm were far superior to those from the Cultivation Realm; unfortunately, the refining techniques hadn't changed much.
With a flick of his hands, the blue flames instantly turned purple, and various materials danced in his grasp, merging into golden armlets.
His mind was filled with Luna's smiling face, and thinking of her made the corners of his mouth lift. He lightly called out, "Congeal!"
The top of the golden armlet widened by an inch, sprouting a pair of silver wings above.
Between the wings was embedded a pink mist crystal, shimmering brilliantly in the firelight.
Li Xiaonan nodded in satisfaction and threaded these golden rings together with a silver chain.
With a toss of his hands, he drew several formations in the air, imprinting them onto the armlets to create unique patterns.
As soft light descended, Li Xiaonan infused it with a strand of Golden Yuan Power. The nine golden rings instantly expanded before him. Li Xiaonan nodded and smiled, "Versatile for both offense and defense; most importantly, it's beautiful!"
Suddenly, a thought flashed through his mind: this treasure could already be considered an exquisite artifact, but it was missing one crucial element—a spirit.
He quickly turned his eyes and took out a Demon Infant, inserting it into the piece of jewelry, using Mental Power to catalyze the thoughts and body of the Demon Infant.
A wisp of gray-black smoke surrounded the Armlet, floating up and down, emitting a low humming sound.
Li Xiaonan chuckled as he tucked the Armlet into his pocket, muttering to himself, "Absorb the Celestial Aura well; the day you meet your master will be your awakening!"
With one hand propping up his chin, Li Xiaonan pondered what gift to prepare for Li Baobao and Fei Ji.
The thought of Baobao made his gaze soften even more.
That girl exuded an endearing natural aura; just thinking about her bare feet stepping on the fields made Li Xiaonan drool.
He chuckled lightly, continuously forming hand seals. As time passed, a silver anklet appeared in his hands.
Each red agate sparkled like the flowers on a ginseng baby’s head, vibrant and beautiful.
Li Xiaonan cultivated a Spirit Tool for her in the same manner. Although still asleep, these two pieces of jewelry were undoubtedly at the level of Celestial Artifacts.
He let out a deep breath and checked his Dantian with his spiritual sense; to his surprise, liquid Golden Yuan Power had been depleted by three-quarters!
Li Xiaonan quickly swallowed a Sixth-Rank Elixir. Although he managed to recover and condense some Golden Yuan Power, it was still far from his peak condition.
It seemed that liquid Golden Yuan Power was just like money—easy to spend but hard to save!
He shook his head helplessly and took out some materials...
As time ticked away, two more items appeared in his hands.
One was a headband adorned with red devil horns, naturally prepared by Li Xiaonan for Fei Ji.
After much contemplation, he had come up with such a ridiculous little prop. As for the functions of this headband...
It couldn't be used for offense, nor could it provide defense.
However, it had two rather "powerful" effects: one was to gather spirit energy, and the other was to keep the wearer’s mind clear.
Well, in truth, these two functions were quite useless, yet this seemingly silly artifact had drained all of Li Xiaonan's Golden Yuan Power.
Now, he regretted it and lamented, "What was I thinking... Truly, if you don't court death, you won't die... Why did I waste my Magic Essence on crafting this... sigh..."
At this point, Li Xiaonan finally recognized the true nature of Golden Yuan Power: Celestial Energy plus Mental Power plus Ghost Energy plus Magic Essence.
Just two weeks ago, he had made a bold attempt to convert Golden Yuan Power into other True Essences, and the experimental results were very satisfactory.
The golden liquid in his Dantian transformed from white to green to black and then to blue...
In his excitement, he had whimsically crafted this Magic Artifact.
Now that the Magic Artifact was completed, he himself had endured quite a bit of hardship.
The second item was an elegantly designed Crystal Bottle filled with golden liquid. The faceted bottle was particularly enticing as it caught the light.
Li Xiaonan gathered all his belongings, patted his backside, and stepped out of the Meditation Room.
Outside, it was dark and oppressive. He looked up at the sky, which was filled with layers of gray-black clouds piled together, occasionally illuminated by flashes of white lightning.
Li Xiaonan couldn't help but pause, muttering to himself, "Oh! It's going to rain. I should hurry home to bring in the laundry!"
"Xiao Nan, it's really you!"
Li Xiaonan turned toward the voice and was surprised to see a familiar face.
"Big Brother, what brings you here?" He smiled widely at the Azure Emperor and gave him a bear hug.
The Azure Emperor replied with annoyance, "How can you even ask? What have you been up to? How did you attract the Heavenly Tribulation?"
"Huh? Heavenly Tribulation? Does the Immortal Realm have Heavenly Tribulation too?"
"Of course! If it weren't for the Shopkeeper here saying that you're a friend of the Yellow Emperor, I would have kicked down the door of the Meditation Room myself. What exactly have you been doing in there?"
Li Xiaonan looked innocent as he replied, "I was just refining some tools... I didn't do anything else! How was I supposed to know what this Heavenly Tribulation was about? Besides, it might not even be aimed at me..."
"Boom!" Just as Li Xiaonan finished speaking, a bolt of Tribulation Lightning struck him on the head.
The Azure Emperor held his forehead, watching Li Xiaonan's twitching figure with a wry smile. "It’s definitely aimed at you. What more can you say to defend yourself?"
