Xuanyuan could hear the sound of water flowing onto stones. He could gradually see a green bamboo field growing next to a few small ponds. Koi fish were swimming inside these small ponds and birds were singing in the trees. It was a Shangri-la. Clearly, ordinary customers wouldn’t be able to enter this place.
They walked up to a wooden house. Inside, you could smell the fragrance of incense. Xuanyuan inhaled deeply and the scent cleared his mind.
“Lady Bai, what is this place?”
She smiled and showed her dimples once again, “This is where I live.”
Xuanyuan was astounded, “Aren’t we going to buy talismans? Why are we here?”
“To give you talismans, of course.” Bai chuckled and took out an ice-blue talisman from her fighting ring.
“This is the Talisman of Ice. When you activate it with your Qi, it can instantly freeze a top king realm fighter to death. Even if they have powerful instruments, they still wouldn’t have the power to defend themselves.” She said.
She put the Talisman of Ice into Xuanyuan’s hand. She then took out a grey coloured talisman, “This is the Talisman of Wind. You will be able to fly along the wind with it. Not even king fighters will be able to keep up with you.”
She then continued to take out a dainty, golden talisman, “This is the Talisman of Protection. It can act as a shield. Unless its power is used up, you will be protected from even the grandmaster realm fighters. All three talismans are grandmaster class items. Keep them. They are my gifts to you. I’ll get very angry if you bring up money this time.”
Talismans, like everything else in the martial arts world, were ranked in different classes. The lowest being spiritual, then they went to wild, king, grandmaster and imperial. All of them were very expensive. Grandmaster class talismans were worth at least 100,000 king coins each.
Xuanyuan knew better than to argue with her, so he took the talismans and smiled. “Great, I won’t say anything more then. Since everything is settled, I should take my leave and head to the Sect. Brother Fung Lie must have been waiting for me. I really shouldn’t delay him.”
