Chapter 60

After finishing a big pile of hard-earned spirit stones, a group of people happily prepared to go shopping.

However, just before leaving, Xie Fuzhi suddenly said, "Wait a minute, since we’re going out, it’s better to change into some nice clothes."

After working hard for so many days, it is finally time to go out and have fun, so of course, we should dress up nicely.

To be alone with Yun Chuyou, he changed his words and said, "You all can go play first, no need to wait for me."

He looked at Yun Chuyou, his gaze full of affection, "Chuyou, please stay and help me choose which outfit is suitable."

Yun Chuyou immediately agreed, "Okay."

In matters like this, Yun Chuyou would never refuse Xie Fuzhi.

Zhong Wei said, "Senior martial sister, I will also go change clothes."

It wouldn’t make sense for Yun Chuyou to go out by herself; the others didn’t matter, she definitely wanted to stay with senior martial sister.

Meng He looked down at his clothes; he wasn’t too particular, wearing the same outfit for several days. If it got dirty, he just used a Cleaning Spell, "Then I will also go change."

Xie Fuzhi couldn’t help but roll his eyes; these apprentices were really annoying, each one clever, yet they had no sense at all.

A few people went to change their clothes, and Xie Fuzhi was the quickest. He picked several outfits, and with each new set he tried on, he would ask Yun Chuyou, "Chuyou, which one do you think looks good on me?"

"You look good in any of them." She wasn’t just being polite; mainly, Xie Fuzhi was very handsome, tall with long legs, a perfect model. With such a body and face, even ugly clothes could look good on him.

But seeing Xie Fuzhi really struggling, Yun Chuyou added, "Wear the bright red outfit."

While Xie Fuzhi went to change his clothes, Yun Chuyou also entered her own room in the cabin.

She didn’t hesitate; when she came out, she had changed from her usual plain dress into a bright red outfit. The white top and red long skirt had a pattern of dancing dragons and flying snow, making her look very striking and elegant.

"Chuyou looks really good in red; we are such a perfect match."

No wonder Chuyou said the red outfit suited her better; it was for this reason. Xie Fuzhi stared at Yun Chuyou, feeling delighted inside, as sweet as if he had eaten honey.

He tied the storage bag he had just received around his waist, showing off the side with the phoenix design to impress others.

"Big senior sister!"

A little girl in a red dress ran out, happily linking her arm with Yun Chuyou’s, "You look really nice today!"

Yun Chuyou smiled and replied, "You do too."

She didn’t care much about her appearance; the clothes she chose were all things she liked. To her, today was no different from usual.

The little girl chattered excitedly, her eyes turning into crescent moons, "Big senior sister looks amazing in red! We both chose red today. We really are in sync!"

"What do you mean in sync? Chuyou chose red clothes just for herself."

A certain phoenix suddenly found Zhong Wei very annoying. Grinding his teeth, he thought that the few apprentices he took in really did clash with him.

However, on this rare happy day, those amber eyes twinkled, and he ultimately chose not to spoil the mood.

A group of people flew down on swords from the spirit boat. Hu Xiao Bai transformed from a white fluffy ball into a human, and a beautiful merperson leaped out from the pool, her dream-like fish tail turning into legs.

None of the people in this group are unattractive; even the guests who have never been on the spiritual boat can’t help but stare.

A few days ago, Yun Chuyou was busy earning spirit stones and didn’t have a chance to relax. Compared to the first day she arrived, it was clearly much livelier now.

When going out to shop, food and drinks are a must, "Let’s go to the Five Palates Sect’s stall first and see if there are any available seats."

As the largest Food Cultivator sect, the Five Palates Sect always has great business; their available spots are rarely empty. However, they can take a number and wait until it’s their turn to order.

Zhong Wei was very surprised, "Big senior martial sister, there’s an empty table right here; we are so lucky!"

She thought she was unlucky before, but after arriving at the Qingxu Sect, her luck started to change. With the big senior martial sister, everything goes smoothly.

With plenty of spirit stones, Yun Chuyou generously ordered a table full of spiritual food, including wine, meat, and vegetables.

The atmosphere at the food stall is often the best, and this time was no exception; the cultivators at the table were happily enjoying their meal.

But when it came time to pay, Yun Chuyou and Xie Fuzhi’s seats had turned into two little paper figures.

Zhong Wei suddenly panicked, "What is happening?"

"Could it be that the master wants to run away?" said the merperson who had worked hard these days.

But as soon as the words were spoken, Hu Xiao Bai slapped him with a paw, "The master is very generous; he just gave you so many spirit stones, how dare you slander him!"

The male merperson rolled his eyes beautifully, "Having money and being generous are not the same."

He had previously been a merchant himself and had seen many wealthy yet stingy businesspeople. Besides, Yun Chuyou is indeed generous, but Xie Fuzhi is different.

"The two of them probably left not long ago and replaced themselves with paper figures."

Yu Jiu grabbed the paper figure, "This has the master’s spiritual power on it."

Thinking about the way Xie Fuzhi looked at Yun Chuyou lately, he sighed, "There are more and more people in the sect; the master must want to be alone with the senior martial sister."

Hearing this, Meng He felt his worried heart relax; he snorted coldly, "I also want to be alone with the senior martial sister; he really knows how to use his power for personal gain. How old is he, and still using such tricks?"

Hu Xiao Bai came out to speak for his family master, "The master truly deserves to have their own private space, and if the master does not agree, the master’s teacher will not force them."

Although that was said, thinking about how the master and disciple had left them without a word made Meng He very unhappy. He asked Hu Xiao Bai, "Aren’t you the contract demon beast of the elder martial sister? Quickly sense where the elder martial sister is!"

As if it had already guessed this situation, the little paper person belonging to Xie Fuzhi jumped once and directly landed on Meng He’s head, turning its hands into paperboard and giving the disobedient disciple a hard knock on the head.

The little paper person belonging to Yun Chuyou slowly opened a small piece of paper, "How fun, let’s meet at the spirit boat in two hours."

The merperson gently said, "Playing together is better than playing apart. Everyone should visit a few more places; this way, we can be more efficient."

He did not want to see Xie Fuzhi, one was a merperson in the sea and the other was a phoenix in the sky. Birds eat fish, and not to mention that Xie Fuzhi was a big bird that could breathe fire; he did not want to become roasted fish.

This thought reminded Meng He, and his eyes brightened, "You’re right, we should split up. This way, we can find the elder martial sister and the others more efficiently."

He grabbed Hu Xiao Bai by the collar, "We will split into pairs, Hu Xiao Bai comes with me."

Spirit pets can sense their master’s location. In front of the other brothers, he worried that they would report him, so he planned to be alone with Hu Xiao Bai and not fear any threats not coming from their elder martial sister.

"Let’s settle the bill first."

Yu Jiu clearly agreed with Meng He’s idea. There were not many dishes left on the table, but no one planned to add more food.

"Someone at your table has already paid in advance."

Zhong Wei asked, "Is it the one in the red clothes?"

The cultivator in charge of the bill recalled, "It was a friend wearing a white top and a red skirt."

The person who paid was the senior martial sister. It seemed she really knew what was happening, and the few people who were worried felt completely at ease.

Although Zhong Wei really wanted to find the senior martial sister, she decided in her heart that if she found her, she would quietly follow and not disturb her.

At the other end of the street, among the crowd, Yun Chuyou and Xie Fuzhi were both wearing masks; one was a rabbit mask, and the other was a kitty mask.

The masks didn’t have any special powers; they were simply cute in design, and it was easy to tell they were a pair.

At first, the two of them walked side by side, but the crowd was tight. As they walked, Xie Fuzhi quietly drew closer and, using the wide sleeve to hide, gently took Yun Chuyou’s hand.

Yun Chuyou did not resist; instead, she held his hand tighter. Then she glanced at the person beside her wearing a cat mask, whose ears had turned bright red, looking very cute.

The corners of her lips lifted: the teacher was still as innocent as ever.

That complicated dish was best eaten freshly made at the Five Palates Sect stall, but during their days on the spirit boat, they used wooden puppets to go buy things with spirit stones. Today, they didn’t really feel the need to get that dish.

However, shopping is not fun just for looking; as they walked, the hand that wasn’t holding onto anything began to carry many things.

Sweet, crispy roasted chestnuts and tangy, sweet candied haws were easy-to-make snacks that seemed to be sold in every lively market.

Of course, besides food, there were drinks too; fruity drinks were served in glass bottles, made from spirit fruits, with ice cubes produced by Ice Spiritual Root cultivators, refreshing and cool, perfect for the heat.

When Yun Chuyou looked at him, Xie Fuzhi felt his cheeks heat up, and he gulped down a big cup of iced drink in one go.

The fruit drink also had tea added; it was slightly bitter. However, looking at their intertwined hands, he couldn’t taste any bitterness at all. The fruit drink stall wasn’t far away, "Chuyou, this drink is quite nice. Shall we go buy another cup?"

Yun Chuyou nodded, "Then let’s buy another cup."

She had only taken two sips; there was very little Spirit Qi inside. It was actually expensive, but since her master liked it, they would buy it.

A young couple held hands and lined up at the fruit drink stand. The girl selling the drinks was round-faced and as cute as a red apple.

Hearing that only one cup was allowed, the round-faced girl smiled, "There’s a special deal today! The second cup for couples is 20% off."

She mentioned they were a couple, and Xie Fuzhi immediately took out his money, "Let’s get two more cups… no, make it two hundred cups!"

Yun Chuyou couldn’t help but laugh, "Fuzhi, you can’t drink that much. Even in the storage ring, it will spoil quickly."

Although this fruit tea with Spirit Qi is good for health, a single cup only contains Spirit Qi worth 1/10 of a lower grade spirit stone, so there’s no need to pour a whole lot into oneself.

She looked at the stand, "Let’s get twenty more cups from the shop."

Since Xie Fuzhi rarely said he liked something, they decided to buy a little more. The rest would be taken back to the younger martial brothers and sisters as an apology for canceling on them. Whatever couldn’t be finished would go to the merperson, as he needed a lot of water anyway.

A male merperson, sitting on a stand where goldfish are sold, rubbed his slightly itchy nose and couldn’t help but sneeze. He had no idea that, later today, he would become the first merperson in the deep sea to taste like fruit tea.
