Xiaoyaozi's New Skill
"I heard that a few days ago, little friend Shi presented Senior Liao with a Sixth-Grade Spirit Herb. Is that true?" the Black-robed Old Man asked solemnly.
"It is."
The Black-robed Old Man glanced at the many Core Formation Cultivators in the hall. "Come upstairs. I have something to discuss with you."
Shi Yue frowned slightly. There was a commanding edge to the Black-robed Old Man's tone, and he had a bad feeling about this.
"Boy Shi, this old geezer doesn't look like he came with good intentions!"
"Mm. Senior Xiaoyaozi, if something unexpected happens, you'll have to be ready. I definitely won't shortchange you afterward."
"Hmph, good timing. After the last upgrade to Palm Heaven Space, I gained a new ability that might come in handy. Don't worry. Just have your Spirit Stones ready," Xiaoyaozi said smugly.
Quite a few high-ranking cultivators had visited in the past few days, placing orders for all sorts of Spirit Herbs and spirit plants. Shi Yue had prepared plenty of seeds, but he couldn't meet everyone's needs.
Two early-stage Spirit Transmutation cultivators wanted to order several thousand-year Jade Nether Flowers. Shi Yue had never even heard of them. After asking around, he learned that the two cultivators were from a Cultivation Star under the jurisdiction of the Yellow Sand Star Domain.
Each star domain governed several Cultivation Stars, and the spirit herbs and plants on each one varied greatly. Some were the same herb but went by different names, and he had no way to identify them. He could only turn down the orders that came his way.
Shi Yue followed him to the Second Floor. As soon as he sat down, the Black-robed Old Man asked, "This old man is Nangong Yan. May I ask who your master is?
