Chapter 329: Explaining Some
The Spirit Crystal Card was not a naturally occurring card, but a card made from a crystal and inscribed with a certain inscription designed by the bank itself.
This inscription could not be copied by others, and only the bank was able to create these special Spirit Crystal Cards.
The cards were handy in such a way that when they absorbed the energy of the various spirit coins, the coins themselves would also be absorbed by the card, but instead of being placed alongside the energy, the coins themselves had been sucked into a specific space made solely for these empty coins.
The card owner would then be able to hand in these empty coins when visiting the bank branches, and the bank would pay a certain fee for the absorbed coins to ensure that the cardholders had a certain incentive to send them back.
These cards were extremely useful, and everyone who had the capital to purchase a Spirit Crystal Card would do so, but it was also due to these cards that the Jinqian Bank was the only bank to survive in the entire Wushi Continent.
Bai Rouyun had been listening to Sun Junmeng's description of the Spirit Crystal Card for long enough to understand that it was not something that just any cultivator would be able to possess.
Even many of the native experts in the Wushi Continent would not be able to purchase one of these cards, but Bai Rouyun, who had just arrived on this continent, had already been offered one, and it appeared as if this Sun Junmeng was afraid that she would not accept it.
Bai Rouyun lowered her gaze, and the doubtful emotions within her eyes were hidden by the shadows as she tried to figure out what this man's purpose could be.
She was well aware of the Bai family and their lack of attention to her, so she had no doubt that it was not them who were behind this strange store, so who could have such strange support towards her?
After arriving at the Wushi Continent, the only person that Bai Rouyun had encountered was Zhao Xiaozhou, but he had no reason, nor possibility to help her with these.
The only other option would be Li Moyun, but she had no doubt that if it was him, he would not hide his help, as he would want her to know of his appearance as swiftly as possible, making Bai Rouyun completely uncertain as to who might be behind the sudden favor she was shown.
Sun Junmeng could not currently see the emotions that were swirling within the young woman's eyes, but he was no ordinary cultivator. The conflicting emotions caused Bai Rouyun to frown, and these small details made him clearly aware of her confusion.
"You are a very smart girl, so you should already have many doubts swirling in your mind. I would like to explain the truth, but I am afraid that it is not possible at this point in time. If I do, someone will get very embarrassed and angry, and he will take out his anger on me.
"However, the one behind me is aware of your identity and is also aware of your current situation. He hopes that you can reunite with your husband as soon as possible, and he wishes for you to live a happy life without troubles."
Sun Junmeng could not help but sigh as he hoped that these details would be able to calm Bai Rouyun while still keeping his master's identity a secret.
Bai Rouyun could not help but feel very confused as she raised her head. Since this man knew that she was already married, he had to have some background information of her past, but she was still very new to the Wushi Continent, so he would have had to be following her from the lower realms until now.
"I will accept the card." Bai Rouyun could not help but gently stroke the vine on her wrist as she made up her mind to accept the card sent to her by this Sun Junmeng.
Although she could not understand his reasons or what could motivate him to help her like this, she was painfully well aware that she did not have an identity that could benefit others.
If she was going to be used as a threat against Li Moyun, then this kind of approach was completely unnecessary, as Sun Junmeng was much stronger than her and would be able to capture her without any problems, and no one else seemed to have any reason to work against her.
Since she could not gain a proper understanding of the current situation, it was better to simply not spend too much time worrying about it. She would, eventually, get to know who was behind this man and what their purpose was, so she calmly accepted their token of friendship. She genuinely needed a Spirit Crystal Card for now.
Sun Junmeng did not dare explain much more about his master, but he also handed over another token that could be used to seek help in any store connected to their business group.
It turned out that the bank that owned the Spirit Crystal Card and many other big businesses throughout the entire Wushi Continent all came from the same background, and that all these places would have a special mark somewhere in their store. The mark was equally engraved into the token she had gained, so she would be able to seek help when needed in the future, even if Li Moyun or Yun Mingshen would be slow in locating her.
