Chapter 40

Zhou Hu nodded, then signaled the four people behind him to enter the shop.

"I can't believe it, this entire shop is made of colored glass?!"

"I believe Wei Qingzhu and the others now. With so much pure colored glass, it rivals even the palace..."

Upon entering the store, they were nearly blinded by its contents.

"What would you like to purchase, everyone?"

A sweet voice rang out.

Zhou Hu and the others looked towards the source of the voice, taken aback.

A girl with purple hair and eyes stood behind the counter, smiling at them.

The girl appeared to be quite young, possibly around the same age as the young boss.

Could she be... the owner?

Among this group, the most powerful was Zhou Hu, at the Ninth Grade of Good Fortune.

Due to limited visibility, Yao Ziyan's identity went unnoticed.

"Are you the proprietress of the shop?" Zhou Hu asked curiously.

Yao Ziyan's expression stiffened slightly.

Although it was the second time she'd been called the proprietress, Yao Ziyan didn't react too much.

Shaking her head, she smiled, "I'm just a clerk."

Upon hearing this, all five men turned their gaze towards Luo Chuan at the door.

Having such a beautiful girl as a clerk, one couldn't help but wonder what the boss was thinking.

Zhou Hu quickly redirected the conversation, coughing lightly, "We're here to buy spicy strips and cola."

The names "Spicy Strips" and "Cola" had been mentioned by Wei Qingzhu and the others.

Yao Ziyan nodded, pointing inside, "You'll find everything you need there. Oh, and there are new products, instant noodles, in the store. You might want to take a look."

Instant noodles?

The unfamiliar term puzzled Zhou Hu and the others.

They hadn't heard of cola and spicy strips before, and now there was another new item.

Could it be some sort of special pill?

With curiosity piqued, the five approached the shelf and carefully perused the introductions.

After reading, they all gasped, their shock even greater than when they first laid eyes on the colored glaze in the shop.

"Now I understand how Wei Qingzhu and the others managed to defeat that amethyst demon wolf..." Zhou Hu murmured, dazed.

"Captain, should we buy them?"

"A hundred Lingjing for spicy strips, ten for cola, and another ten for instant noodles. It's a bit pricey!"

"Nonsense! With these effects, it's still expensive? How about we give them to you for free?!"

"Don't be mad, don't be mad, I'm just..."

The four chuckled, finally turning to Zhou Hu.

As the leader, Zhou Hu made the final decision.

Looking at his companions, Zhou Hu laughed, "Brothers, is there even a need to ask? Let's buy them!"

"The boss is mighty!"

"Haha, our captain is generous..."

Hearing the cheers, Zhou Hu couldn't help but smile.

Their willingness to share with one another was what strengthened their bond as a team.

"One person will take five bottles of cola, another five barrels of instant noodles, and one person will take a pack of spicy strips."

After a brief discussion, Zhou Hu made the decision.

They unconsciously ignored the Qiongyelu.

Ha, priced at a hundred thousand Lingjing, even if they sold everything, they couldn't afford it!

"Sorry, it's our shop policy. Each person can only purchase each item once per day," Yao Ziyan's sweet voice intervened.

"Huh? There's such a rule?" Zhou Hu was stunned by Yao Ziyan's words, as were the others.

Their expressions mirrored his surprise.

Whoever heard of a shop with such rules? It was unheard of.
