As the System notification sounded, a flash of surprise flashed across Gu Xi’s eyes, but it was quickly concealed as if nothing had happened.

This was actually another remnant of the Savage Beast Formation Array!

Ever since he had obtained the first remnant from the Song Family’s Treasure Pavilion, he had never truly used this spirit array.

Although the Savage Beast Formation Array in his hand was only earth-grade, this did not make Gu Xi doubt the power of this spirit array.

“Can you go a little lower?” As Gu Xi spoke, he picked up the mystic-grade spirit array in his hand and played with it. His eyes occasionally looked at the Savage Beast Array at the side.

“This is a mystic-grade middle-level spirit array after all. And let me tell you, the power of my spirit array is extraordinary. If I were to use all of its power, it would be comparable to an earth-rank low-grade spirit array.”

The boss looked around, then said in a low voice, “If you really want it, it will be at most 500 spirit stones, no more.”

Gu Xi frowned, he stared at the boss in front of him, and said, “If you can sell a mid-level mystic-grade spirit array at such an expensive price, isn’t the market price usually a few thousand spirit stones? Even if your spirit array is powerful, if it is not as powerful as you say when I buy it, will you give me a refund?”

This series of questions made the boss, who had been here for many years, a little confused. He did not know how to explain it.

As the boss, he knew very well that a mid-level mystic-grade spirit array could not be sold for such a high price. Even if the power of this spirit array was somewhat outstanding, it definitely could not be compared to the earth-grade spirit array that he said.

As for the refund, it was naturally not refundable once sold.

Seeing that the boss was at a loss, Gu Xi grinned and continued, “How about this? 9,000 mid-grade spirit stones. In addition to this mystic-grade spirit array, I’ll take another item from this stall. How about it?”

“Okay, okay, no problem.” Hearing this, the boss nodded without hesitation.

Anyway, the items on this stall were not very valuable. Even if he picked two more items, he would definitely make a profit!

Seeing that the boss nodded in agreement, Gu Xi kept the earth-grade spirit array in his bag. His gaze swept over the stall for a while and finally chose the Savage Beast Array. He then threw a bag of spirit stones at the boss.

“Thank you for your patronage, sir. Come again next time if you need anything!”

The boss counted the spirit stones, and after confirming that there was no mistake, he immediately beamed with joy.

Gu Xi did not respond. He chuckled and turned around to head to the second floor.

Bah, only a fool would patronize it again!

If it was not for this Savage Beast Array, who would have the time to spend nearly 10,000 middle-grade spirit stones to buy a mystic-grade spirit array?!

Very quickly, Gu Xi arrived at the second floor.

Compared to the first floor, there were fewer people on the second floor. After all, the stalls here had been strictly selected by the Ten Thousand Treasures Pavilion. No matter what kind of goods it was, the quality was guaranteed from the second floor onwards.

Similarly, while the quality was guaranteed, the price also increased considerably. Even if it was the same item, the price between the first and second floors could be several multiples in difference.

From the first to the second floor, a thick medicinal fragrance greeted him. Just the smell alone was enough to make people feel refreshed. Gu Xi scanned the surroundings, but did not see Little Nine and the others. However, he thought that with Little Nine around, and this was the territory of the Thousand Treasures Pavilion, nothing would go wrong.

Gu Xi slowly strolled through the various stalls. He wanted to pick up some more scraps while at the same time looking for the spirit herbs needed to refine the Soul-casting Pill.

In less than 15 minutes, he had already found several spirit herbs needed to refine the Soul-casting Pill. This made him sigh with emotion at the fact that the Thousand Treasures Pavilion was the number one Chamber of Commerce in the world.

“I was the one who offered the price first, why did you sell it to him?!”

As he walked, a familiar voice suddenly entered Gu Xi’s ears.

Gu Xi frowned slightly. His gaze followed the direction of the voice and saw a group of people gathered not far away. They seemed to be watching something lively.

Gu Xi hesitated for a moment before turning around and leaving. He did not intend to watch the show. The most important thing right now was to purchase the necessary ingredients to refine the Soul-casting Pill.

“What are you doing?! Let go of me!”

However, before he could take a few steps, the voice sounded once again. This time, it was much clearer than before. His footsteps immediately stopped.

“Song Qingluan!” Gu Xi’s eyes narrowed as he immediately felt that something was amiss.

Without the slightest hesitation, Gu Xi turned around and rushed toward the crowd. After he squeezed through the crowd, he discovered that the person in the middle was, as expected, Song Qingluan. At this moment, there were a few men in front of Song Qingluan, and one of them, who was dressed luxuriously, was tightly clutching her wrist. No matter how Song Qingluan struggled, she was unable to break free.

One had to know that the current Song Qingluan was only at the Qi Refinement stage!

Seeing this, Gu Xi’s anger immediately surged. With a tap of his toes, he appeared beside Song Qingluan like a bolt of lightning. Without saying anything, he raised her hand and grabbed the man’s wrist.

Gu Xi exerted some strength, and the man was in pain. He had no choice but to let go of Song Qingluan.

“Ahhhhhhh–”

“Who the f*ck are you?!”

Looking at Gu Xi who suddenly appeared, the man was clearly a little confused, but he quickly reacted and shouted at Gu Xi.

“What’s going on?” Gu Xi ignored the man’s words and turned to look at Song Qingluan.

Seeing Gu Xi’s appearance, Song Qingluan heaved a sigh of relief and pointed at a spirit herb on the stall beside her. She explained, “I saw this Snake Twining Vine first, and I was the one who negotiated the price with the boss first. However, this person suddenly appeared and claimed to pay double the price for this Snake Twining Vine, and… Most importantly, the boss even agreed!”

“Of course, I wouldn’t agree to it, but this person wanted to take this Snake Twining Vine away by force. What happened after that… You saw it yourself.”

As soon as she finished speaking, Song Qingluan glared at the stall owner.

Hearing this, Gu Xi finally understood the cause and effect of the matter. In short, it was not Song Qingluan’s problem at all!

“In business, you have to pay attention to first come, first served. Boss, I’m afraid you’re not being too kind by doing this, right?”

Gu Xi’s cold gaze fell on the stall owner as well, scaring the latter so much that he could not help but take a few steps back and almost fell to the ground.

“Bah! In business, there’s still a high price to be paid!”

Before the owner could answer, the man in luxurious clothes spoke disdainfully.
