"..."

A bit further back Xiao Ju Hong smiles lightly. She had heard the conversation between Yao Xie Xian and Ye Gui Feng.

"P-Princess?"

"Uh..."

A streak of tears rolls down Xiao Ju Hong's face as she quickly wipes them away before sniffing.

"I'm fine."

Although Xiao Ju Hong says that she feels like it was something that she needed to say in order for her to comfort herself.

(This pain again...)

Xiao Ju Hong frowns as she clutches her chest. Once more the thought of not wanting to part with Ye Gui Feng later on in life comes to her mind.

(Isn't there some way to make it so that he can stay with me forever?)

The tension in the front of the shop made every person there on edge and even the little girl can feel that something is wrong as she fearfully looks on from behind her family's back.

"Yao Xieshen you little bitch..."

Despite facing the full brunt of Yao Xie Xian's wrath Ye Gui Feng continues to stare into the eyes of the powerful immortal without backing down. He doesn't regret any of the things that he had just said.

Just as it would seem like Yao Xie Xian will destroy Ye Gui Feng on the spot the unexpected happens.

"Hmph."

Yao Xie Xian flicks his sleeves and turns the other way. He's angry at Ye Gui Feng but even more angry at himself for the fact that Ye Gui Feng had been right about the things that he had said.

Seeing the tension dropping everyone in the room relaxes while Ye Gui Feng steps outside.

After making a few meters away from the shop Ye Gui Feng places a hand on the wall and abruptly begins to pant for breath.

"Holy shit that was scary!!"

Although Ye Gui Feng didn't regret any of the things that he had said that doesn't mean that he wasn't terrified for his own life when standing in front of Yao Xie Xian.

At this time Ye Gui Feng truly is glad about having such an excellent poker face otherwise he was sure that his fears would have been shown.

"Ah..."

Ye Gui Feng fans himself with his flat hand while leaning his back against a wall while attempting to adjust his erratic pace of breathing.

"Yao Xie Xian ah Yao Xie Xian I might be afraid of you but that doesn't mean that I'm easy to mess with."

After catching his breath and calming his mind Ye Gui Feng returns back to the store with his usual face.

"All done?"

"Yes."

At the front desk is a stack of ten robes with their individual sashes placed to the side.

"How much?"

"4,000 spirit stones."

Hearing this number Yao Xie Xian raises an eyebrow.

"If clan chief Xie thinks it's too ex-"

"I say owner no need to be so cheap. My uncle Xie here is loaded. Asking him for 4,000 spirit stones and he's even making a "that's so cheap" kind of look."

Yao Xie Xian glares at Ye Gui Feng harshly before snorting and flicking a sleeve to make 100,000 spirit stones appear out of thin air.

"Heh."
