Chapter 11: Out of stock

Hearing Bai Qiuran’s question, Tang Wei bit her lip. This was her subconscious action.

“My name is Tang Ruowei, the eldest princess of the Heavenly Profound Country.”

Tang Wei, no, Tang Ruowei replied.

“Ruowei… What a good name.”

Bai Qiuran smiled and cupped his hands.

“Alright, actually, what I want to say is that no matter what your gender is, I, Bai Qiuran, will still treat you as a friend. I wanted to befriend you not because of your gender, identity, or ability, but because of your courage to help. In the future, if you have any difficulties, you can tell me. I will do my best to help.”

After a pause, he said, “For example, if you need anything right now…”

“No need. I’m fine.”

Tang Ruowei hesitated for a moment before saying,

“You’ve already saved my life. I’m not qualified to ask you for more… Moreover, I just need to return to the country to participate in the routine Heaven Worship Ceremony. I’m a princess after all. Now, the evil people don’t dare to do anything to me.”

“Is that so? That’s good.”

Seeing that Tang Ruowei did not take the initiative to ask, Bai Qiuran did not mention this again.

“Is Brother Tang… Is Miss Tang returning to the capital next?”

“I’ll go and inform the civilians near the Rogue Mountain first. After doing this, I’ll return to the capital.”

Tang Ruowei glanced at Bai Qiuran.

“What about you? You’ve already gathered all the herbs. Are you going back?”

“No, no, no. I only found one herb. My lifespan is almost up. I still need to find another herb to extend my life.”

Bai Qiuran smiled and shook his head.

“Next, I’m also prepared to make a trip to the capital of the Heavenly Profound Country. There are a few materials I can buy there. Moreover… I’m also quite interested in the Imperial preceptor of the Green Destiny Sword Sect you mentioned.”

“In that case, it’s my turn to invite you.”

Tang Ruowei smiled.

“Do you want to go with me to the capital of the Profound Heaven Country?”

“Sure.”

Bai Qiuran replied happily, “It would be too boring to travel alone.”

After finding the few medicinal herbs he needed, he spent some time accompanying Tang Ruowei, who was still disguised as a man, and spread the news of the demon being killed near Gang Mountain.

During this process, Bai Qiuran also asked around. Indeed, while he was monitoring the demon, someone was still killed near the Rogue Mountain. A large amount of blood was taken from the deceased, and the entire corpse withered.

However, after he and Tang Ruowei cleaned up the zombie demon, this matter did not happen again.

Bai Qiuran did not tell Tang Ruowei these things. Instead, he prepared to investigate slowly himself. He had a feeling that this matter should be inextricably linked to the capital of the Profound Heaven Country.

Therefore, after dealing with these matters, Bai Qiuran and Tang Ruowei embarked on the journey back to the capital of the Heavenly Profound Country.

Bai Qiuran did not care much about the fact that Tang Ruowei was actually a girl because he did not have any improper thoughts about Tang Ruowei to begin with.

Although as a man who had spent 3,000 years on the Foundation Establishment realm and had also yearned for the kind of immortal couple between fellow disciples, Bai Qiuran’s sexual orientation was still limited to that of a normal male.

To put it simply, he liked women with big chests and voluptuous buttocks. Bai Qiuran was not interested in a girl with breasts that were even flatter than his chest muscles for the time being.

Therefore, in order to avoid arousing suspicion, he was also very cautious along the way and perfectly guaranteed that he would be a gentleman. He did not cause any more trouble with Tang Ruowei.

A week later, the two of them successfully arrived at the capital of the Profound Heaven Country, the largest city in the entire Profound Heaven Country.

In front of the bustling Profound Heaven Country City gate, Bai Qiuran and Tang Ruowei cupped their hands and bade farewell. Tang Ruowei was still dressed as a man.

“Goodbye, Bai Qiuran.”

She smiled and said,

“Although I felt very impatient when you invited me to drink at that time, you’re right. Making friends is a very happy thing. I’m very happy to have you as a friend on this trip.

“Goodbye, Miss Tang.”

Bai Qiuran also bade her farewell.

“Please take care. We’ll meet again if fate allows.”

“You too.”

The two of them bade farewell to each other casually. Then, Bai Qiuran watched as Tang Ruowei walked in front of the soldiers of the Profound Heaven Country and showed them her token. Then, she left under the protection of a group of soldiers.

A gentleman’s friendship was as bland as water, and the friendship of cultivators was even more so. Life, cultivation, and various setbacks on the cultivation path usually filled the lives of cultivators with variables. A cultivator would have to say a lot of farewells for various reasons.

Cultivators had to learn to pick it up and put it down.

In the past 3,000 years, he had traveled several times. Bai Qiuran was long used to this kind of separation. He ignored strength, identity, and lifespan and had only made friends with Tang Ruowei based on his mood and naturally treated Tang Ruowei as his friend.

In the limited time Tang Ruowei was alive, Bai Qiuran would treat Tang Ruowei like a good friend. After Tang Ruowei left this world, if Bai Qiuran was still alive a few hundred years later and was in the mood, he would bring a pot of good wine and visit the grave of an old friend.

This was his current way of life.

After bidding farewell to an interesting girl like Tang Ruowei, Bai Qiuran also began to deal with his own business. Just as he had said previously, other than the Foundation Establishment Pill, he also had to refine a furnace of Longevity Pills to extend his life.

At the same time, he actually still lacked a few supplementary herbs in the Foundation Establishment Pill. He also planned to obtain them in the capital of the Profound Heaven Country.

In the capital, there was actually a small market specially provided for cultivators to trade. Although the people who came here were not high level cultivators and the materials they traded were not precious, these simple materials were exactly what Bai Qiuran needed.

Moreover, occasionally, the top experts of the cultivation world would also appear in this cultivator market and use precious materials to exchange for special items. For example, Bai Qiuran knew that Jue Yunzi and those elders often secretly came here to use the natural treasures they found when traveling to exchange for treasures that were especially precious to them to satisfy their quirks.

Sometimes, Bai Qiuran had to admit that what Tang Ruowei said made sense. Cultivators, especially high level cultivators, were really sanctimonious fellows.

Relying on his memories from hundreds of years ago, Bai Qiuran successfully found the entrance to this market. With the most basic illusion-breaking technique, he passed through the wall of a dead end in the capital of the Heavenly Profound Country and entered a space inside.

As the wall dissipated like a cloud, a wide street appeared in front of Bai Qiuran. On both sides of the street, there were many stalls set up by cultivators. Within these stalls were the natural treasures they had found from various places or the Dharma treasures and flying swords that had been refined. In the buildings on both sides of the street, there were shops run by some small and medium-sized cultivation sects in the Gu Continent. They were specially opened for cultivators at the Foundation Establishment realm.

Ignoring the enthusiastic greetings from both sides of the street, Bai Qiuran passed by and directly arrived at a pill refinement shop opened by a small pill refinement sect.

He handed the list he had long prepared to the very enthusiastic late-stage Foundation Establishment manager. In the end, the other party received it and shook his head.

“What? You’re all out of stock?”

Bai Qiuran asked in surprise,

“What I want are all common but not very useful materials.”

“I’m sorry, someone came to buy a large batch recently. We’re already out of stock.”

The boss replied apologetically.

Bai Qiuran thought for a moment and used his magic power to write some other materials on the list before handing it to the shop owner.

“Boss, take a look. Are these materials also out of stock?”

The shop owner took it and nodded.

“That’s indeed the case. This batch was bought out with the batch you wanted… Speaking of which, how did you know that I’m out of stock?”

“Oh, that’s probably because the person who bought it is most likely my fellow disciple.”

Bai Qiuran replied perfunctorily and put away the list. He apologized and directly walked out of the pill shop.
