Chapter 727: Restocking
On the other side, objects began to appear on the top of the low table around the black token.
Looking at the white jade stone, talismans, formation plates, defensive and offensive artifacts, and more than a dozen jade bottles, Gui Xiaoxu said, "Thank you."
After sending everything over, the disciple replied, "This is what this disciple should do. Young Master Xiaoxu, if anything happens on your journey, please contact me immediately. This disciple wishes you a safe journey. May you find your way back home."
The communication ended, then Gui Xiaoxu looked at Bai Hanyun and said, "Miss Bai, you heard him. Do you still want to go?"
Bai Hanyun nodded. "Yes. I must go back. I need to find Feng Xiyan."
Seeing no hesitation in her eyes, Gui Xiaoxu stood up, holding the black token. "Very well. Then I wish you a safe journey."
"Thank you for your help today, CEO Gui," Bai Hanyun said as she escorted him out.
After Gui Xiaoxu left, Bai Hanyun turned to Hua Yuyu and the others. "Brothers, I’m going to restock supplies. We will depart in the evening."
Hearing this, Hua Yuyu and the others responded in unison. "Yes, Miss Bai."
Bai Hanyun stored the white jade stone, talismans, formation plates, artifacts, and jade bottles into her black spatial ring, then grabbed her car keys and left in a hurry.
After the door closed behind her, Hua Yuyu looked at his brothers. "Let’s go. We also need to restock supplies. Our destination is the black market."
"Yes, Captain."
With that, Hua Yuyu and his team left for Fu Rong City to visit the black market.
Driving her car, Bai Hanyun called Hu Chaoyang. The moment the call connected, she said, "Brother Chaoyang, I need a lot of supplies."
In his office, Hu Chaoyang’s fingers paused on the keyboard.
He picked up his phone, turned off the speaker, and asked, "Hanyun, why do you need so many supplies?"
Bai Hanyun had no intention to make excuses, so she told him the truth. "My boyfriend needs them. He is currently in the middle of a war."
Hu Chaoyang was stunned when he heard what she just said.
Coming back to his senses, he thought in surprise, ’Hanyun already has a boyfriend? Is he a soldier on the frontline? Why did Yinqi never mention this to me?
Though curious, he did not ask further. "I see. Since it’s for the frontline, take as much as you need. I will handle the rest."
"Got it. Thanks a lot, Brother Chaoyang."
Afraid she might do something dangerous, Hu Chaoyang worriedly added, "Hanyun, your safety comes first."
Bai Hanyun paused for a moment, her anxious heart calming slightly. A smile appeared on her lips as she responded, "Mhm, I know. I will talk to you later, Brother Chaoyang."
"Mhm. Be careful."
After ending the call, Bai Hanyun pressed the accelerator and headed straight for the nearest Bai Group warehouses.
While Bai Hanyun and the others were busy restocking supplies, time passed quickly.
In the Feng Army barracks, Feng Xiyan stood before his one hundred thousand troops. Looking up at the sun that hung above his head, he waited in silence as they stood in formation.
A few minutes later, Tan Pengtai arrived and clasped his fists. "Great General, preparations are complete."
Feng Xiyan nodded. He stepped down from the platform, mounted his warhorse, and ordered, "Move out."
At his command, the soldiers parted to let him pass, then followed him in formation.
On their way to the city gate, civilians, traveling merchants, and refugees lined both sides of the wide street from the inner ring area to the outer ring area.
Seeing Feng Xiyan approach with his army, they knelt and kowtowed in unison. "Respectfully send off the Great General. May you return victorious!"
Their voices echoed through Xiqiang City as Feng Xiyan passed through the city gates without looking back. His only goal was to conquer the Yu Empire as quickly as possible.
On the city wall, the sounds of war drums thundered, solemn and powerful, sending off Feng Xiyan and his army to their new battlefield.
Dum~! Dum~! Du~ru~Dum! Dum~! Dum~! Du~ru~Dum!
Meanwhile, in the modern world, Bai Hanyun had filled all her Qiankun Pouches with supplies. Looking into her empty black spatial ring, she clenched her hands before heading to the Bai Group’s warehouses that specialized in storing medicines.
These warehouses had higher security than the others, but thanks to Hu Chaoyang’s help, she managed to take the medicine without any problems.
Leaving the warehouse area, Bai Hanyun looked up and noticed that the sun had already set on the western horizon.
Glancing at the time displayed on her phone, she muttered, "There is not much time left."
Getting into her car, she started the engine and drove toward Fu Cheng Town.
Two hours later, Bai Hanyun parked her car outside a store. She locked it, then walked toward the entrance. When she pushed open the glass door, the sensor detected her, and a mechanical voice echoed through the spacious store.
"Welcome, dear customer."
Hearing this, Shen Yi looked up from his phone. The moment his gaze fell on Bai Hanyun, his drowsy eyes lit up.
"Miss Bai!" Closing his game, Shen Yi put away his phone and walked out from behind the counter with a bright smile.
As he approached her, he said with a hint of grievance, "Miss Bai, I have been waiting for you for weeks, and today you finally came."
Looking at his smiling face, Bai Hanyun smiled back. "I guess Boss Shen must have something new to show me, then?"
Shen Yi gestured for her to follow him and replied, "Miss Bai, you are as intuitive as ever. I do have something good to show you."
After saying that, Shen Yi led Bai Hanyun to the back area and opened a metal door.
Seeing that he had brought her to the secret room, Bai Hanyun’s eyes flickered with curiosity.
