7 Mini-Mart

Pulling the hood tighter towards her, Xuanmei sighed as she stepped out of the manor filled with guards. Mapping out the layout and dispersion of guards, she took out the scrawled-over piece of paper.

Letting Ming down from her shoulders, he synced his steps with hers as they walked out into the open. Lifting a snow white arm to block the sun's magnificent rays from shining on her slightly transparent hood and showing her face, she pulled the hood further down front, blocking her face.

Entering a mini-mart like structure, Xuanmei couldn't help but admire the handiwork.

Staring at the products, she brought out the cash that was in her pocket. Flipping her hands and counting the pieces of 500 silvers while looking at which items she wanted to buy, she finished her mental calculations and gracefully picked out a leather face mask, a large storage space gem, and a necklace chain.

Surprisingly, despite being made of leather, that mask was actually quite comfortable and normal-looking enough. The large storage space gem, courtesy of Ming's knowledge, was made an amazingly useful item.

Walking towards the corner of the room, Xuanmei tied the necklace chain along with the storage space gem onto the Ming's neck. Storage space gems were usually embedded into swords as to keep loot and carcasses while not making the carriage load heavier as swordsmen were the most likely to slay the beast.

After Ming explained the world's situation to her, Xuanmei finally understood the levels and layers of this world that people like to characterize cultivators as.

The first level of cultivation was called Beginner Cultivation, and it lasted three ranks;

Low ranked, Middle ranked, and Peak ranked cultivators.

The second level, Advanced Cultivation, had five levels;

Bottom leveled Advanced, Low leveled Advanced, Middle leveled Advanced, High leveled Advanced, and Peak level Advanced Cultivation.

The third level was the hardest, with seven levels in the rank.

Bottom leveled Professional, Low leveled Professional, Lower middle leveled Professional, Middle leveled Professional, Upper Middle leveled Professional, High leveled Professional, and Peak leveled Professional Cultivation.

Every gap between the titles of Low, Advanced, and Professional was hard to jump, and cultivators had to spend about a year to jump each level, not to mention a rank!

However, there was the special Elite, Holy, Mythological, and Legendary level, their power respectively ranged from low to high.

Walking up to the counter, Xuanmei pulled out her fist, opened it, and gave 500 silver taels to the cashier.

"This face mask, please."

The cashier nodded, smiling as she accepted the money.

"Ah, Xiao Wei, wait, Give the money back and take the mask first! That little lady, would you mind having a little chat with this young master?"

All the staff in the shop stopped and started, mouths wide open.

Did their shop owner just ask this little customer on an inadvertant date?

How was he so sure that, that... Customer was a female? Her figure and face was completely covered!

Even so, the twelve year old master was talking to a ten year old? When had he become so straightforward and friendly? He normally just locks himself in his room!

The turn of events made everyone in the room shocked, while Xuanmei just focused on sneaking away. Successfully leaving the shop, she turned around.

"Now, speak, mister shopkeeper. What is it that you want?"
