Chapter 81 – 81. Clothing Store
"Those who have a lot of mana stones will easily develop their power by absorbing the mana from the stones," Xue Ning explained again when she saw the frown on Fu Xie Lan's forehead.
Different from the transaction tools that humans often use, such as gold and silver coins, those who use Mana as a source of power tend to use Mana stones as their transaction tool.
If you have a lot of Mana Stones, then it's the same if you live in a place that contains a lot of Mana.
Fu Xie Lan quickly understood after hearing Xue Ning's explanation.
"Thank you," said Fu Xie Lan to Huang Bao.
They then continued the journey that had stopped.
Fu Xie Lan glanced in the direction Xue Ning was in. The moon tiger's bite wound on the girl had healed because she looked fine.
Walking further, the traders peddling their wares on the roadside began to decrease, replaced by buildings that stood not so high.
Fu Xie Lan's steps stopped when she saw a shop selling pieces of clothing.
"You guys, is it okay if I stay for a bit?" Huang Bao suddenly turned around, and it turned out that at that very moment Fu Xie Lan and the others were already a few meters behind him.
The old man immediately approached.
"Why stop?"
"Would you like to buy something?" asked Huang Bao again.
"I want to buy some clothes, Teacher. May I?" asked Fu Xie Lan.
"Oh sure, of course, you can. That's why I gave you some mana stone so you can buy whatever you want," explained the old man.
"Okay, thanks again, Master," she said again and then started walking to the clothing store that had caught her attention.
"W-wait," hesitatingly, Huang Bao made a sound and made everyone following Fu Xie Lan turn their heads towards him.
"Erm, I want to visit someone for a while, is it okay if I leave? You guys just go for a walk. We'll meet again at Noelle, and buy herbs together," said Huang Bao.
To be honest, the old man had been wrestling with his thoughts for a long time. He wanted to meet someone but hesitated if he had to leave Fu Xie Lan. He was afraid that something would happen later. nor could he take them with him, for the person he was about to meet would probably recognize one of them. He didn't want to cause a stir in a crowded place like this. But in the end, he decided. With the presence of the ruler among them, it would probably be fine.
"Xue Ning, do you know where Noelle is?" asked Fu Xie Lan after hearing Huang Bao's words.
Xue Ning nodded firmly. Yes, even though this girl has always lived a nomadic life, don't forget that her village used to be very close to Kanca City. She often visited Kanca city, when at that time everything was still fine.
"Okay, Teacher, we'll meet at Noelle," said Fu Xie Lan, although she didn't know what Noelle was, it didn't seem dangerous.
"Then we separate here, don't take off your robes and don't lose the jade," warned the elder to Fu Xie Lan and Xue Ning, then left the four people.
Without waiting for Huang Bao to disappear into the crowd, Fu Xie Lan immediately walked over to the clothing store. Xue Ning, Wan Lie just followed her from behind. Meanwhile, Gu Yi stayed beside her.
Entering the shop, a fat and short man immediately greeted them.
"Wow, it's been a long time since the wizard hasn't visited my shop."
"How can I help you ladies and gentlemen?" said the fat man approaching the group in blue robes.
"Let us have a look first," Xue Ning said.
"Of course, wait a moment."
"Luo Xie, Luo Xie came here," the fat man shouted later. After a few seconds, a tall and thin man ran in a hurry.
"Yes sir," he said to the fat man with a half-bent body.
"Serve these distinguished guests," he said then smiled at Xue Ning. His eyes occasionally scanned the three people wearing hoods and masks. It seemed he was a little curious about the three of them.
"Miss, this is Luo Xie, who will serve you, don't hesitate," he added.
"Thank you," Xue Ning said to the shop owner.
Meanwhile, Fu Xie Lan just remained silent.
"Come with me," said Luo Xie.
Fu Xie Lan and the three people followed Luo Xie deeper into the shop.
It turns out to be very spacious, even though if you look at it from the outside, it is very small in size. There were only a few customers who were busy choosing clothes.
Various types of dresses and men's clothing hung on the walls, each one showing its elegance and splendor.
"Ladies and gentlemen, can you tell me what kind of clothes you want?" asked Luo Xie.
"If I may recommend, the clothes over here are usually the most preferred by wizards," he added, immediately moving towards the clothes he meant.
"I want the one over there," said Fu Xie Lan, pointing to one of the clothes hanging on the shop wall.
Reflex everyone saw the clothes that Fu Xie Lan was referring to.
"Xie-Xie Lan, it's a men's cloth," Xue Ning said hesitantly when she saw Fu Xue Lan's choice. The suit looks simple and very ordinary.
"Wan Lie, what do you think?" She asked turning to Wan Lie.
"If you like it, so do I," Wan Lie replied with a slight sigh. He knew a time like this would happen. He still remembers how when his mother asked for some of his clothes to wear, while all the dresses provided in the closet of her room disappeared somewhere as if the dresses were her greatest enemy.
"Okay, I want that one," she said again looking at Luo Xie.
"Okay, wait a minute, Miss."
"Aren't you going to ask me?" A whisper that sounded very melodious in her ears suddenly sounded, of course, Fu Xie Lan was shocked, and immediately turned her head.
Her breath hitched, Gu Yi's face was so close to her, even her warm breath caressed the skin on her neck, making her heart race again.
Even though the man was still wearing his hood, being at this close distance made Fu Xie Lan a little nervous.
"Is there a similar suit? I want a few pieces," said Fu Xie Lan again, immediately normalizing her expression and slightly moved away from Gu Yi.
While on the other hand, Xue Ning was almost laughing at herself, because she thought the suit Fu Xie Lan was referring to was for the girl herself. Her guess was wrong, the clothes Fu Xie Lan was referring to turned out to be for Wan Lie.
Gu Yi who was ignored by Fu Xie Lan was furious again.
Why did it seem like there was only that man in Fu Xie Lan's mind? Just watch, if there is a chance, he will beat Wan Lie. How dare the young man appears in his wife's mind.
