The system notification rang, and Lisa looked at this old man with a young heart and rubbed her chin thoughtfully before agreeing to add him into her friend list.

After that, the two talked for a while and really hit it off, and Tang Wenbo thought that his girl was much better than that brat of his at home. "You're almost the same age as my grandson, so you can call me Grandpa Tang!"

"Grandpa Tang." Lisa obliged with a smile, making the old man chuckle in satisfaction, before asking, "Are you here to look for anything in particular?"

Lisa looked around at the shop's wares, but there wasn't anything that she wanted according to the system appraisal, and after thinking about it for a few moments, she replied, "I'm here to look for ancient pieces of jade, but it's been hard..."

Such a big shop didn't have what she wanted, after all, so the same could probably be said for the other shops and stalls on the street.

"Ancient Jade?" Tang Wenbo looked at the girl in surprise. "That's a hard one, but you might be able to find it if you look for it closely enough. Why don't I come with you, I don't have anything else to do today?"

Lisa agreed, and the duo went around the entire street, but didn't end up finding any pieces of jade. In the end, Lisa only bought two pieces of jade that were cut out on the spot.

"Well that's strange, there should at least be one piece..." Tang Wenbo looked at the time, before looking at Lisa. "How about you go home and come back tomorrow, I believe they're going to restock?"

"Thank you for your help, Grandpa Tang, I'll go do some more window shopping by myself, you go home okay?" Lisa raised her hand to cover her eyes, before putting them down again. She had a strong hunch that there was a piece of ancient jade there, but she only couldn't find it for the time being.

When she raised her hand, the jade bracelet that was on her wrist slid out into view, and Tang Wenbo was suddenly stunned as he looked at it for a long while.

"Grandpa Tang?" Lisa asked curiously. "Is everything alright?"

"...It's nothing." Tang Wenbo retracted his gaze. "Well, I should be making my way home now, goodbye."

Lisa looked at the old man leave before raising her hand again, thinking for a bit before giving up and focusing on her current task-To find that vexing piece of ancient jade.

"System, this piece of ancient jade is too good at hiding, do you have any way to sniff it out?" Lisa rubbed her head, feeling a headache coming on. She had already leveled up to Bone Refinement, and her mental power had grown much stronger too to the point where she could encompass the entire street with much to spare, but it was still impossible for her to find that piece of ancient jade.

Now that she had used up her mental power, it couldn't be used for a while longer.

[Loading...50 points are required to detect the location of the ancient jade!] The system quickly notified.

"Why is it so expensive?" Lisa asked in surprise. She thought that it would've been easy for the system to find the ancient jade just by scanning the street.

Hearing this, the system spirit replied: [Beauty Lisa, this piece of ancient jade is supernatural and has enough spiritual energy on it that it already learned how to disguise itself. The system would need to use up energy to find it, and the more energy it needs, the more points it'll cost!]

"...Fine, I'll bite." Lisa gritted her teeth slightly, before continuing,: "But you must find it!"
