Chapter 87: Meeting Liu Mei again
Fatty Fu then stood up as he quickly gulped down the rest of the wine in his jar before saying
''Great! I also wanted to see my Jinjing.''
Shun Long looked at him questioningly when fatty suddenly cleared his throat and said
Cough
''What I meant was that it's better for me to accompany you and help you get a discount on the things that you want to purchase brother. This is what brothers are for, right?''
Shun Long snorted, before also cracking a smile seeing fatty's antics and said
''Okay then, let's go together. Also, who is that Jinjing of yours?''
As they walked towards the 'Treasure Pavilion' fatty Fu puffed out his chest as he heard Shun Long's question and responded proudly
''It's my beautiful fiance. You have also seen her before, back in the 'Alchemist's Guild'.''
Shun Long tried to think for a while, and as he recalled the time when he had visited the 'Alchemist's Guild', a crazy idea swept through his mind as he looked at fatty Fy and asked in a voice filled with disbelief
''Fatty.. you... don't tell me that your fiance is Lan Jinjing from the 'Treasure Pavilion'.''
Fatty Fu started laughing proudly as he said
''Of course, who do you think this young master is? Her Lan and my Fu family have had a great relationship for many years.
Actually, there are 5 main families that have the most power in the 'floating cloud sect'. My Fu family and the Lan family are among those 5. The other 3 are the Lu family which Lu Wen comes from, the Meng family, and lastly the most powerful one is the family of the sect master, the Liu family. Every family has many powerful experts and most of them are high-rank Elders inside the sect.''
Just as fatty Fu finished speaking, they had already arrived outside of the 'Treasure Pavilion'.
As soon as they entered, the staff of the pavilion greeted fatty Fu respectfully as 'auctioneer Fu'.
Fu Li happily accepted everyone's greetings as he nodded while he took Shun Long deeper inside the 'Treasure Pavilion'.
After arriving on the second floor, fatty didn't stop as he continued straight towards the third.
The third floor of the 'Treasure Pavilion' was exclusive only for people with high status inside the sect. Of course, as the heir to the Fu family, fatty Fu had no problem going upstairs and bringing people with him. Shun Long could also enter by himself using the VIP card that he had received from Yin Xing, but since he wasn't wearing his black robes he simply followed fatty Fu.
Entering the third floor, Shun Long noticed that the items on display here were much better than the previous 2 floors.
There were even parts of rank 3 magic beasts that were for sale. Shun Long even saw the beast core of a rank 3 'red-scaled python' being sold for 37.000 sect points.
Fatty Fu looked at Shun Long and said
''The best things of the 'Treasure Pavilion' are always in this floor. There are even some things that you may not find in the auctions here.''
Fatty Fu followed Shun Long as he looked for medicinal herbs.
Stopping in front of a certain counter, Shun Long was slightly taken aback as he looked at the price of a certain rank 3 medicinal herb
''Ohh, a rank 3 'purple fragrant grass'? I will take this stalk''
Shun Long said to the young man behind the counter whose eyes lit up as he heard him. Although the 'purple fragrant grass was a rank 3 medicinal herb, the truth was that nobody wanted to purchase it. Hence, even though it was a rank 3 medicinal ingredient, the 'Treasure Pavilion' had priced it at only 1000 sect points.
The reason that nobody purchased the 'purple fragrant grass' was because it was practically useless for alchemy. It couldn't be used as the main ingredient to concoct pills, and it could only be used as a side ingredient to improve the pill's fragrance, hence why no one had bothered to buy it. Shun Long however, had some special plans for it as soon as he saw the grass.
Looking around the third floor, Shun Long also found some more medicinal ingredients that interested him, and after 2 hours, he had spent almost 15.000 sect points.
As Shun Long and fatty Fu were looking around the third floor, the door of one of the private rooms opened, and a pair of beautiful women attracted everyone's attention as they walked side by side.
Both women were around the same height as Shun Long and they seemed to be wearing the green robes of an inner sect disciple. Behind the 2 women was a handsome young man in green clothes around 19 years old, who seemed to be fawning over one of the 2 women.
Shun Long too had turned his attention towards them as well and surprisingly, both women were also looking towards him and fatty Fu.
Fatty Fu smiled brightly as he exclaimed happily
''Jinjing!''
These 2 were the most beautiful women in the 'floating cloud city', Lan Jinjing and Liu Mei.
Lan Jinjing was a bit annoyed as she looked at fatty Fu, but when she thought that he could take care of the guy pestering her senior sister, her eyes lit up as she told him
''Fu Li, come here.''
Fatty Fu smiled brightly as he hurriedly grabbed Shun Long's and brought him along to introduce him.
''Brother, this is my fiance, Jinjing. Jinjing, this is my brother Shun. You and sister Liu have also briefly met him before at the 'Alchemist's Guild'. ''
Lan Jinjing and Liu Mei were astonished to see fatty Fu bringing someone with him. As the young master of the Fu family, Fu Li didn't have that many people that he called friends and even fewer that he called brothers. Given his frank character, bringing someone along with him, and especially one that he called brother meant that he must have a really good relationship with this person.
Lan Jinjing and Liu Mei both scrutinized Shun Long with their gazes trying to see when they had met this handsome man before. Shun Long's and Liu Mei's gazes met and he was once again mesmerized by her beautiful black eyes and peerlessly beautiful face.
Liu Mei was also stunned for a second as her gaze was attracted by Shun Long's deep eyes when a sudden voice came from the young man behind her drawing everyone's attention as he said
''Fu Li stop spouting nonsense. How could just any stray dog know sister Mei.''
