Chapter 140: Hidden Dragons in the Shop
Ying Wuji ignored Xia Yuan's curious thoughts, his focus entirely on Luo Chuan. An inexplicable anxiety lingered in his heart.
"Boss, is there any of that jade nectar available today?" Ying Wuji asked, his voice carrying a rare nervousness.
Luo Chuan nodded calmly. "Yes, the goods arrived just today."
Hearing this, Ying Wuji visibly relaxed. A look of excitement lit up his face. He had prepared enough spirit crystals this time and could finally replenish his vitality!
"What is this jade nectar you're talking about?"
Xia Yuan, who had unknowingly moved closer, suddenly spoke up with a puzzled expression.
As he looked around the store, Xia Yuan realized it raised far too many questions. For one, how could an ordinary shopkeeper command such respect from someone like Ying Wuji?
With Xia Yuan's knowledge of Ying Wuji, this man usually treated everyone with cold indifference. Yet here he was, treating the shopkeeper like a figure of great importance.
And then there were the other customers. The students who had entered earlier were now picking items off the shelves—buckets of strange goods, black potions in glass bottles, and small, neatly packed bags. Everything looked utterly unfamiliar to him.
