Chapter 165: Night Encounter

After listening to Manager Tian’s words, Han Li finally gained some understanding of the Talisman Treasure and couldn’t help but take another careful look at the talisman inside the brocade box.

“This Golden Light Brick Talisman Treasure was acquired at great cost from a small family by our pavilion. It’s a brand-new talisman, never used even once. Exchanging it for your millennial spirit medicine, Brother Li, is more than fair!” Manager Tian said repeatedly, his tone filled with regret as if he had suffered a huge loss.

Han Li chuckled quietly to himself, not believing the other party’s words about suffering a loss. At most, it was a matter of mutual benefit. In the eyes of the pavilion, his spirit medicine was definitely worth more than this talisman.

“So, Brother Li, which item are you planning to exchange for?” Manager Tian finally asked with a smile.

Han Li hesitated for a moment, unable to make up his mind. He had wanted to visit a few more shops to see if there were better magical artifacts, but these items in front of him were indeed excellent and suited his taste perfectly. Giving up any of them was difficult. Especially the Golden Light Brick Talisman Treasure, which would greatly help him in the future; he definitely wanted to take it.

“I like all of these items, so I plan to take them all!” After some thought, Han Li made his decision.

He felt that buying everything here at the Myriad Treasures Pavilion might not be a bad thing. At the very least, it would reduce others’ attention to him, keeping the influence of the millennial spirit medicine limited to this pavilion alone.

“Take them all? Brother Li, are you joking?” Manager Tian’s expression darkened when he heard Han Li’s words. He had thought Han Li was making an unreasonable demand, trying to use just one spirit medicine to exchange for all the treasures in the brocade box.

Seeing this, Han Li smiled slightly but did not respond. Instead, he took out an identical box from his storage pouch and placed it on the table.

“I’ll give you two millennial spirit medicines in exchange for all the treasures inside your brocade box!” Han Li said slowly, with an air of certainty that he would get what he wanted.

Manager Tian was both shocked and delighted. He hurriedly checked the newly appeared spirit medicine without responding to Han Li’s offer. After confirming that the new spirit medicine was indeed the same kind of millennial spirit medicine as the first, he looked at Han Li with a strange expression. After all, someone who could suddenly produce two rare spirit medicines was definitely worthy of his pavilion’s attention.

Han Li was wearing a cloak, so Manager Tian couldn’t see his expression clearly, which made him think Han Li even more mysterious. After hesitating for a moment, he decisively said:

“Alright, since Brother Li insists, I can concede a bit and agree. But I have a small request: if Brother Li obtains any spirit medicines or similar items in the future, I hope you will still consider Myriad Treasures Pavilion first. I assure you, my offers will satisfy you.”

Han Li let out a dry laugh, nodding slightly without giving a clear answer. But inwardly, he sighed, knowing the other party was still suspicious. He realized that trading spirit medicines for treasures like this was best done sparingly in the future; otherwise, it might bring deadly trouble.

Manager Tian had no idea what Han Li was thinking. Seeing him nod in agreement, he was very happy. If this Brother Li could truly bring him millennial spirit medicines in the future, then the small loss he made today and this concession were completely worth it!

So, Manager Tian and Han Li exchanged their items. After storing their respective goods, both parties were very satisfied.

Han Li, having said his goodbyes, left the Myriad Treasures Pavilion and didn’t dare to linger in the marketplace for a moment longer. He quickly flew out of its restricted flying area and immediately left the place.
