"Such a beautiful sister probably isn't a scammer." Seeing the Blonde Girl vanish in an instant, Liu Xinghan froze for a moment and muttered uncertainly to himself.

Sigh, why is doing business so difficult?

The medicine was gone, yet he had not received the money. Liu Xinghan was utterly speechless.

The following night.

After Liu Xinghan waited with eager anticipation, the figure he had been hoping to see finally appeared once again.

Looking at the Blonde Girl, who had changed into a different outfit, Liu Xinghan said with a grin, "Sister, I knew beautiful people would never deceive others."

Hearing the praise, the Blonde Girl's lips curved slightly. "Here, take it. This should be enough to buy your three pills, right?"

Having tested the medicine on himself before, Liu Xinghan knew that a person could probably only benefit from the first three Body Refining Pills. Therefore, the bottle he had given the Blonde Girl contained only three Body Refining Pills.

Liu Xinghan took it and looked inside, immediately stunned. "Thirty thousand Gold Soul Coins."

His hand even trembled. It was his first time seeing so much money. He had originally thought that selling one pill for a thousand Gold Soul Coins would already be a lot, but the price had directly multiplied tenfold. Poverty truly limited one's imagination.

Seeing Liu Xinghan's strange expression, the Blonde Girl frowned. "What? Ten thousand per pill still isn't enough?"

Liu Xinghan hurriedly nodded. "It's enough, it's enough."

Only then did the Blonde Girl say, "Then I don't owe you anything anymore." With that, she turned to leave.

Liu Xinghan hurriedly said, "Sister, I have another kind of pill that can increase Mental Power. Do you want it?"

The Blonde Girl paused and turned around. A look of shock appeared on her flawless face as she asked, "You have pills that increase Mental Power too? Were they also given to you by that old grandpa?"

It was no wonder the Blonde Girl was shocked. Pills that increased Mental Power were even rarer and more precious than Body Refining Pills. Even she had never seen one before.

"I do. I'll sell you three as well. Do you want them?" Liu Xinghan asked tentatively.

Just like the Body Refining Pills, the God Transformation Pills that enhanced Mental Power had no effect on him. He still had six left, so he could sell them for money and make another huge profit.

"How much are you planning to sell these for?" the Blonde Girl asked as she accepted the bottle.

With the Body Refining Pills as proof, the Blonde Girl did not doubt him this time.

"Fifteen thousand Gold Soul Coins per pill," Liu Xinghan said boldly.

He naturally knew that pills which enhanced Mental Power were more precious than Body Refining Pills, so he decisively raised the price by fifty percent.

"If they really work, then fifteen thousand Gold Soul Coins isn't expensive," the Blonde Girl said thoughtfully.

"But I didn't bring that much money today. Same time tomorrow, come here, and I'll give you the money," the Blonde Girl said.

Although she was not short on money, she did not carry a huge sum around with her every day.

"Alright, take the pills first. Just give me the money tomorrow," Liu Xinghan generously handed the pills to the Blonde Girl.

The Blonde Girl accepted the pills with a smile and teased, "Aren't you afraid I'll take your pills and run away without paying you?"

Liu Xinghan grinned. "I trust you, Sister."

The next day, the Blonde Girl arrived in a long white dress, like a fairy descending from heaven.

"Sister, you're here!" Liu Xinghan was delighted to see her.

The Blonde Girl handed Liu Xinghan a Gold Soul Card. "There are forty-five thousand Gold Soul Coins on this. Your medicine is very good."

She wore a smile on her face. Liu Xinghan's medicine that could enhance Mental Power had helped her greatly.

Taking the Gold Soul Card, Liu Xinghan now had a net worth of seventy-five thousand Gold Soul Coins, making him far wealthier than even his father. Thinking of this, Liu Xinghan beamed.

With money, he had confidence. He could study Soul Tools without any worries now!

"Sister, I'm in a good mood today. Let me treat you to a meal!" Liu Xinghan invited generously.

The Blonde Girl was momentarily stunned. After hesitating for a moment, she nodded and smiled. "Alright!"

If it had been anyone else, with her temperament, she definitely would not have agreed. However, Liu Xinghan's two transactions had helped her greatly, and she had a favorable impression of him, so she accepted.

The two left Spirit Academy side by side.

"Sister, what's your name?" Liu Xinghan asked curiously along the way.

The Blonde Girl said, "My name is Qian Xue. What about you?"

Liu Xinghan replied, "My name is Liu Xinghan."

Halfway there, Liu Xinghan frowned and looked behind him. That feeling had appeared again. "Sister Qian Xue, do you feel like someone is following us?"

It was not just today. Every time he left the academy, he always had the feeling that someone was following him, yet he could never find them.

If it was not an illusion, then the other party's tracking methods were simply too good.

Qian Xue nodded. "There is indeed a rat following us. You can sense it, so it seems your Mental Power is quite impressive too."

Liu Xinghan frowned. "Then can you find him?"

No one would feel comfortable being followed all the time. He really wanted to drag the person out and see what his purpose was and why he had been following him.

Qian Xue shook her head. "I can only sense him as well. There are too many people on this street, so I don't know who it is."

Liu Xinghan felt somewhat disappointed.

Qian Xue leaned close to Liu Xinghan's ear and whispered, "We can do this..."

The two went to the largest restaurant in Spirit City and ate their fill. Then, they deliberately waited until late at night before leaving the restaurant and heading toward a secluded area.

The silent path was so quiet that a pin drop could be heard.

Suddenly, a black shadow darted out and blocked their path.

Liu Xinghan's gaze shifted, and he thought to himself, As expected, he showed up.

This was Qian Xue's plan: lure the snake from its hole. Since the other party would not come out, they would create an opportunity and lure him out.

Liu Xinghan had considered this plan before, but as a mere One-Ring Spirit Master, without knowing the other party's identity, he had not dared take such a risk.

However, Qian Xue said she was confident, so he agreed despite his doubts.

"You're the one who has been following me, right?" Liu Xinghan asked the man in black.

"That's right." The man stared fixedly at Liu Xinghan.

"Why?" Liu Xinghan asked.

"Because you have a Soul Bone. So you must die."

As soon as the words fell, the man in black moved. Three yellow and one purple spirit rings appeared, and he instantly completed Martial Soul Possession. His First Spirit Ring lit up, and his body merged into the night, vanishing completely.

Liu Xinghan froze at his words. How did he know Liu Xinghan had a Soul Bone? Only he and his father knew this secret. They had not even told his mother.

"Xiao Han, move back!"

Qian Xue stepped forward, stared ahead, and shouted coldly, "Trivial Skill!"

Two Yellow, Two Purple, and one black spirit ring rose into view.

Liu Xinghan was dumbfounded at the sight. This beautiful sister, who looked only a few years older than him, was actually a powerful five-ring Soul King!

His father was nearly thirty years old, yet he was only a Soul Ancestor.

Golden wings of light unfolded behind Qian Xue's back. Her entire body radiated an intense sacred aura, like a goddess descended from the heavens. Then, her fourth spirit ring bloomed with a purple glow.

A mysterious figure of light with wings identical to Qian Xue's stood behind her. Golden radiance erupted, and the surrounding darkness swiftly receded. The vanished man in black was immediately exposed beneath the golden light.

Terror appeared in his eyes. Clearly, he had not expected that this beautiful girl, whom he had previously disregarded and thought he could handle however he pleased, would actually be a Soul King stronger than himself!

Before making his move, he had even thought about thanking Liu Xinghan for bringing him such a stunning beauty. He had planned to enjoy holding her in his arms after dealing with Liu Xinghan, but he had never expected his own life to be in danger in the blink of an eye.
