Zi Xi raised her slender hand and passed over a Jade Slip.
Inside the Jade Slip
were the terms of the trade her master had proposed.
Li Chang'an took it and read it carefully.
"Heavenly Net Gold, Clear Thunder Stone... They're all Tier 4 Treasures. The price really is a little steep."
Purple Cloud True Lord's meaning was clear: if Li Chang'an could produce any one of them, she would exchange the Spirit Cloud Fruit for it.

"Senior, did I make a mistake in my cultivation?"
"No.
