Chapter 416

"Of course."

The manager nodded hastily.

"Fine, then help me repair it."

Meng Zhangqing took out a broken jade hairpin from his storage ring.

It was precisely the one that had broken when Kong Linxue protected his breakthrough in the Mystic Clarity Realm.

Meng Zhangqing had promised to repair and make up for it, so naturally he would not forget.

"Alright."

The manager took it.

Yet he was extremely puzzled.

Because this jade hairpin was truly ordinary; it was just a common jade hairpin.

With his own craftsmanship, he could repair it in minutes.

He had thought it was some precious object.

But he did not say anything.

After all, everyone's definition of precious is different.

"Please wait, guest; it will be repaired for you immediately."

The manager still greeted him with a smile: "Um, our shop also has many famous jade hairpins containing arrays with remarkable effects. Would the guest like to take a look?"

"Sure."

Meng Zhangqing nodded.

To tell the truth, since the martial tournament, he had not seen Senior Sister Kong again.

Perhaps it was because he had been in seclusion continuously, or perhaps because his strength and status had risen too quickly, causing the gap between them to grow ever larger.

Before, he lived on Spirit Peak.

Senior Sister Kong could come to find him freely.

Now, however, it was somewhat difficult.

To see the Young Sect Master, not just anyone could; nor would a mere true disciple be allowed to disturb the Young Sect Master's cultivation lightly.

"Senior Sister Kong."

Meng Zhangqing's gaze shifted slightly.

When he first entered the Runei Sect, Senior Sister Kong had helped him greatly.

She had specially gone to her master to obtain a Rank Three elixir, the 'Jin Linzi Blood Elixir', to aid his cultivation, and had also informed him in advance of the detailed situation in the Mystic Clarity Realm.

After that, there were even more such things.

Truly hard to forget.

Meng Zhangqing actually understood Kong Linxue's feelings toward him, and he was not averse in his heart.

After all, in the Runei Sect, Kong Linxue was the most beautiful female disciple of Medicine King Peak, and even of the entire Zhenggezong Sect.

It was just that cultivation was his priority at the time.

He thought to let things take their natural course.

Yet as they let things take their natural course, they grew ever farther apart from each other.

"Guest, please look at this one; this is our shop's treasure—the Blue-and-White Jade Hairpin."

The manager's words brought Meng Zhangqing's mind back.

He looked ahead.

He saw that the jade hairpin was entirely emerald-green, with many blue-and-white patterns carved on its surface, emitting a lustrous glow.

Moreover, many mysterious lights flickered.

Clearly.

This was no longer an ordinary ornament.

It was a rather rare secret artifact!

Secret artifacts are not weapons; they are basically inclined toward auxiliary effects.

"This jade hairpin contains ten high-grade arrays inside; it can clear the spirit, brighten the eyes, and calm the heart..."

The manager began to speak eloquently.

He introduced it with all his might.

"I'll take it."

Meng Zhangqing did not listen much; he simply thought the appearance of this jade hairpin was quite nice.

Worn on Kong Linxue's head.

It should be very beautiful.

As for the effects, those were merely incidental.

"Alright, I'll pack it for you right away."

The manager was stunned, then surprise appeared in his eyes.

Indeed, he had not misjudged; this was a big customer!

The world-weary heart wrote a letter of regret, sighing at the 00.
