Li Banfeng arrived at Ink Fragrance Shop's most famous library, Yan Sha Study, wearing a black suit, black shirt, and black top hat.
The wind and snow were fierce today. As he entered, Li Banfeng removed his hat and shook off the snow.
The woman at the front desk wore a blue-green robe, a deep violet scarf, and two braided pigtails. She said to Li Banfeng, "Wind and snow cannot bar your longing for the study. Is this a thirst for knowledge, or a dependence on the fragrance of ink?"
Li Banfeng considered for a moment, then lightly patted the front desk.
A millipede drilled out from the desk and crawled all the way onto the woman.
The woman screamed, "Are you here to lodge, or to read?"
When Li Banfeng first came to Ink Fragrance Shop, Lu Yuanxin had scared this woman half to death with a millipede. Li Banfeng clearly remembered what that millipede had looked like, but even after doing his utmost, he could only recreate about thirty percent of it.
His All Wishes Fulfilled Skill still lacked considerable refinement.
In the blink of an eye, the millipede vanished. Li Banfeng handed the invitation to the woman.
After reading the invitation, the woman straightened her appearance. Not daring to say another word, she led Li Banfeng up to the second floor of the grand library.
The second floor of the grand library was rarely opened to the public. This was Li Banfeng's first time here as well.
There were three large book pavilions and six smaller ones on the second floor. The woman led Li Banfeng to one of the large pavilions, called Cloud Platform Xuanji Pavilion.
When the doors opened, eight rosewood bookshelves shaped like moon gates ringed the center. The books were wrapped in silkworm
