The next day, Xiao Tian woke up very early and went straight to the clan's market.
There were three major factions in Wu Tan City, and the Xiao clan was one of them. They naturally had quite a number of markets.
Due to the agreement that Xiao Tian had negotiated with Yao Lao last night, he would provide the medicinal herbs to Yao Lao so that the latter could refine some pills to verify his words.
However, Yao Lao said that he had been asleep in the ring for too long and his soul power was insufficient. Hence, he needed Xiao Tian's Dou Qi to support him. Xiao Tian agreed after careful consideration.
"It is unexpected that there is still a fellow that exists in the form of a soul in this world…" Xiao Tian walked on the street, thinking about the secret that Yao Lao mentioned last night. He could not help but feel surprised.
In fact, during the negotiations last night, Xiao Tian had learned a lot about Yao Lao. For example, how he was able to reside in the black ring, and some restrictions on his existence in the form of a soul.
These matters, or rather, secrets, were not something that Yao Lao had directly said. In this world, there was probably no one who would reveal their background on their first meeting. In fact, these secrets were all asked by Xiao Tian in a 'tactful' way. It was not the former's own willingness...
"However, that fellow is indeed quite pitiful. He actually stayed in the ring for such a long time…" Xiao Tian recalled Yao Lao's words last night and could not help but feel touched. However, these thoughts were quickly expelled from his mind.
To him, there weren't many people in this world that he could trust. The disciples of the same clan didn't even have the chance to meet him, much less Yao Lao, whom he had only met once. Therefore, he quickly forgot about Yao Lao's encounter and only cared about his own matters.
This might be a cold-blooded and selfish approach, but Xiao Tian did not think there was anything wrong with it.
"If I had absolute strength, I might be able to save many people. However, the current me doesn't have the qualifications!”Sighing in his heart, Xiao Tian shook his head and shook off the tangled thoughts in his mind. He walked into a market.
At this moment, he was standing in a medium-sized market of the Xiao clan. People came and went in the market, and it was very lively.
Xiao Tian had never seen such a lively scene since he came to this world. His face was filled with shock.
He was usually quiet and eccentric, so he rarely hung out with many people. The last time he fought Desolate Ning was probably the most crowded occasion he had ever seen. At that time, he had shocked the entire clan, and the disciples of the Xiao clan had a lot of respect for him.
In this world, on the Dou Qi continent, the strong were respected. A strong person would definitely attract the respect of the surrounding people.
However, Xiao Tian was not used to this kind of respect that existed everywhere. Moreover, he did not interact much with people in the first place, so he was even more annoyed by the situation of many people gathering together.
At this moment, facing the busy market, he frowned and stood at the door of the shop, hesitating whether to enter.
Just as he was hesitating, a manager in the pharmacy in the market saw his existence and hurriedly came out to welcome him.
"Young Master Xiao Tian, you actually have the time to patrol our place today! This truly makes us feel incomparably honored!”
A wave of flattery that made one's skin tingle rang out, directly causing Xiao Tian to be stunned. He looked at the manager in front of him with a flattering smile.
"Uh, actually, I came here…" Xiao Tian scratched his head and smiled. Just as he was about to say his request, a crisp voice suddenly sounded from behind him.
"Tian gege!"
Hearing this crisp voice, Xiao Tian stopped what he was about to say and turned his head in surprise.
Sure enough, Xun Er's graceful figure appeared outside the crowd behind. The light and agile aura emitted by the owner of this figure was particularly eye-catching in this bustling market, and it also calmed Xiao Tian's somewhat nervous mood.
"Why are you here?" When Xiao Tian saw the stunned gazes around Xun Er, he involuntarily frowned and said in a deep voice,"The outside world is different from the clan. It's best not to go out alone.”
At this moment, Xun Er had already walked over. When she heard Xiao Tian's words, she could not help but lower her head with a slightly red face. However, there was a different expression in her bright eyes on her red face. His eyes seemed to be secretly happy…
However, Xiao Tian did not notice her secretly happy expression. He nodded and turned around, preparing to walk into the medicine shop to find the materials he needed.
The steward in front of him was also surprised when he saw Xun Er. The expression on his face became even more respectful.
At the back, Xun Er followed Xiao Tian to the medicine shop. However, before she could take two steps, she was stopped by someone.
"Hey, miss, my young master invites you to drink tea!”An evil voice suddenly sounded.
Xun Er raised her head in puzzlement when she heard these words. She looked at the fellow with pockmarks all over his face in front of her. After which, she passed that person and looked into the distance behind him.
He saw a handsome young man standing elegantly. He smiled as he looked over at Xun Er.
"Tell him I'm not interested!" Xun Er frowned slightly and said in disgust.
"Humph! My young master is not an ordinary person. It's your honor to be able to invite you!”The pockmarked man was furious when he heard this." You really don't know what's good for you. You refuse a toast only to drink a forfeit!"”
After saying that, he did not care how unwilling Xun Er was, nor did he care about the gazes of the surrounding people. He directly stretched out his hand and grabbed Xun Er.
At this moment, Xiao Tian also felt that there seemed to be some emptiness around him. He could not help but turn his head and see the scene behind him.
