Ning Qi stood in the air with spiritual power circulating in his eyes. His Celestial Eyes were fully activated as he observed his surroundings.
Through his Celestial Eyes, he could determine where there was enough spiritual energy for him to absorb. After the Sword Appreciation Festival in Jinling City, the spiritual energy had decreased a lot and returned to normal.
There was a Nascent Soul cultivator there, so Ning Qi could not stay for long. He had to change to another place.
"Other than Jinling City, there are three other places with strong spiritual energy. I'm afraid they are Cloud Rising Academy, Blackjade Academy, and the other top forces in the Mountain Sea Region."
There were Nascent Soul cultivators in these places. Ning Qi planned to go there after he advanced to the Nascent Soul realm. Before that, it was better to go to a safer place.
In next to no time, he'd chosen his target and executed the Cloudsoar Technique to tear through the sky over there.
His Cloud Riding Technique was extremely fast. Even an early-stage Nascent Soul cultivator might not be able to catch up, let alone a late-stage Golden Core cultivator.
Occasionally, some cultivators noticed the cloud, but they only dared to look at it from afar. They did not dare to get close. Nascent Soul cultivators were the top figures in the Mountain Sea Region.
"So this is a cultivator's market."
After Ning Qi arrived near his destination, he landed on the ground and slowly walked into the market.
No wonder the spiritual energy here was only slightly weaker than in Jinling City. Not only were there many shops on both sides of the street, but there were also countless people setting up stalls.
However, most of the items on the stalls did not have high spiritual energy values. As Ning Qi walked, there were only a few scattered spiritual energy values in his account.
Not long after Ning Qi entered the market, when the cultivators saw him, they first glanced at him casually, then turned to look at Ning Qi again. When Ning Qi looked at them, they would retract their gaze and still look indifferent.
This made Ning Qi secretly vigilant in his heart.
"You two stinky beggars, get lost. Don't waste my time with this kind of trash."
Not far away, a Qi Refinement cultivator who was setting up a stall kicked two thin figures to the ground. At the same time, he picked up a rough wooden sculpture and smashed it on them.
The two little beggars had disheveled hair and dirty faces, making it impossible to see their true appearances. The cultivator had used quite a bit of strength. Although he didn't kick them to death, he still made them gasp repeatedly on the ground, unable to get up for a long time.
Ning Qi slowly walked in front of the two and squatted down to pick up the wooden carving. His eyes were slightly stunned.
The surging Spiritual Energy Value surged into Ning Qi's body, and the Spiritual Energy Value on the Attribute Panel was also soaring.
Even Ning Qi, who had experienced countless trials and tribulations, was shocked by the amount of Spirit Qi he had gathered from the wooden sculpture.
Spiritual energy value + 1000000, many zeros.
He counted it carefully several times. Yes, it was exactly one million points of spiritual energy.
He had absorbed hundreds of magic weapons in Jin Ling City, and he had only accumulated about 200,000 aura value. This ordinary-looking wooden carving actually brought him a million aura value.
Not to mention the Peak of the Gold Core Realm, even the Early-stage of the Nascent Soul Realm or even the Middle-stage would need enough spiritual energy, right?
"Young Master, this wooden carving is ours. If Young Master is interested, you can buy it for only ten taels of pure gold."
A voice sounded beside Ning Qi.
There was a trace of fear and inferiority in his voice.
Ning Qi looked up and saw that the two little beggars had already climbed up from the ground and were looking at Ning Qi with hope in their eyes.
From Ning Qi's attire, they could tell that he was a child of a rich family.
"I want this wooden carving."
Ning Qi nodded slightly and took out ten taels of pure gold and handed it to the two.
The Energy Refinement Realm cultivator who kicked them saw this and frowned slightly. He said to Ning Qi, "Young Master, this ordinary wooden carving, how can it be worth ten taels of pure gold?
Don't be fooled by these two wild children. "
"It may be worthless to you, but for me, it's worth ten taels of pure gold."
Ning Qi smiled lightly.
Worth more than ten taels of pure gold?
It's worth a million taels of pure gold! "Prodigal …" The Energy Refinement Realm cultivator muttered in a low voice. He ignored Ning Qi and the others and continued to advertise his business.
"Thank you, Young Master, thank you, Young Master!"
The little beggar who spoke pulled the other little beggar and bowed to Ning Qi. He carefully put the ten taels of pure gold into his arms.
Just as they were about to leave, Ning Qi smiled and asked, "What are your names?"
"Young Master, I'm Da Gouzi."
The beggar's eyes flashed, as if he was afraid that Ning Qi would go back on his word and take back the ten taels of pure gold. The other beggar was much more timid than him and didn't dare to make a sound. His eyes were basically staring at the ground.
"You're called … Da Gouzi?"
Ning Qi stared blankly at this little beggar. He suddenly waved his hand and the spiritual energy in his hand instantly washed away the dirt on the beggar's face. A familiar face fell into Ning Qi's eyes.
Da Gouzi was frightened by Ning Qi's actions. When the stall owner saw this, he was secretly shocked. Ning Qi was so young and he was actually a cultivator?
"Young Master, you, you're not going back on your word, are you …" Da Gouzi said timidly.
"No, I've never gone back on my word."
Ning Qi smiled. This was the first time his smile was so bright since he came to the world of the living.
His gaze fell on the other little beggar. "She's your little sister, right?
What's her name? "
Da Gouzi didn't realize that Ning Qi could tell his little sister's gender at a glance. His eyes revealed a hint of vigilance and he cupped his hands towards Ning Qi. "Young Master, we still have matters to attend to. We'll be leaving."
After saying this, he pulled the other little beggar and was about to leave.
Ning Qi stood where he was and didn't stop them. After a few breaths, he slowly opened his mouth. "Little Yue Er?"
The two little beggars' figures instantly stopped. Da Gouzi turned around and looked at Ning Qi with a trace of fear in his eyes. "You, how did you know … how did you know my name?"
The other little beggar looked at Ning Qi with a bright and intelligent gaze. Her eyes were filled with doubt.
Ning Qi slowly walked in front of her and similarly used spiritual energy to wash away the dirt on her face.
Da Gouzi's age was a bit different from his previous life. However, Little Yue Er wasn't much different from when he saw her in his previous life.
"Perhaps we knew each other in our previous lives."
Ning Qi smiled.
After coming to the world of the living for five or six years, he finally found two old friends. The world was vast and perhaps it had its own destiny. Those who were entangled with karma in the world of the dead might have a trace of connection when they came to the world of the living.
In this way, he suddenly had a bit more confidence in finding the others.
"Young Master, what are you saying? We don't understand."
Da Gouzi murmured.
"It's fine if you don't understand. You guys should be homeless, right?
I plan on hiring two attendants. You guys are about the same age as me. I wonder if you're willing? "
Ning Qi smiled.
Da Gouzi was stunned.
The other party wanted to hire them as attendants?
They were refugees and beggars after all.
Just as he was in a daze, the nearby cultivators silently and slowly surrounded the three of them.
