Distinguished Guest (Myriad Heaven City) (8)

Even though the shopkeeper was in a state of disbelief, at the same time she was also filled with awe.

After all, the thing that she has just witnessed isn’t a thing that you can see every day.

The chance to happen was definitely one in a million and with just this alone, it shows how much talented Shu Haoyu is.

“To be able to wield a spirit weapon, he must be a heaven-gifted talented genius. Even the Core Disciple from the top sect can’t subdue a weapon spirit easily yet he managed to do it with just his first try not to mention the spirit weapon was the cursed sword that is known for devouring people’s soul.” The shopkeeper thought.

While she was too absorbed with her speculations, something accidentally crossed her mind. “Ehh wait, I haven’t asked for his name yet, didn’t I? Oh my…” She mumbled.

“U-uhm, forgive me for my ignorance earlier, but how should I address you sir?” She suddenly asked.

“Ahh, don’t worry that’s fine. I go by Shu Haoyu and these two are Yao Yin and Mei Qi.” Haoyu instantly replied with one of his fingers pointed out at those two girls.

“Ohh, so it’s Sir Haoyu, Madam Yao Yin and Madam Mei Qi. Pardon for my rudeness earlier.” The shopkeeper said in an apologetic way.

“My name is Xia Ling Long, You can just call me Miss Xia.” She added before bowing towards Shu Haoyu.

Shu Haoyu chuckled a bit after seeing Xia Ling Long’s behavior.

“Pfft, I’m not really used to this kind of formality. Besides, I think I’m too young to be called Sir, you know.” Haoyu said before letting out a small laugh.

“You’re being too modest. After being able to subdue a spirit weapon, there’s no way that you will be an ordinary cultivator in the future. So it should be natural for me to highly regard you.” Xia Ling Long said with a serious expression.

Even though what she said on the surface made some sense, that’s not her actual motive. Her real motive was just to get on the good side of Haoyu.

"In this kind of world, connection is really important. From her perspective, by getting on Haoyu’s good side, she would gain another strong connection to him and thus gain a benefit that would benefit her in the future.

“The relationship between us must definitely be well secured. If he really grows up to be one of the top bigshots in the future, then that means I would gain a strong backing,” she said inwardly.

With such thoughts, she has made up her mind that she will try every possible way to get on Haoyu’s good side. “I must get on his good side! Securing a good relationship with him is just like gaining two benefits from one action!” she thought.

Upon hearing Xia Ling Long’s response, he let out a small sigh.

“Sigh, at the end it’s still up to you. I’ll just let you do as you wish for now. How about you two? Are you willing to be called madam despite being fifteen this year?” Shu Haoyu said while looking at Mei Qi and Yao Yin.

“If you don’t really care about it, why does it matter to me?” Yao Yin replied.

“If the young master is fine with that, then I have nothing to complain about,” Mei Qi spoke.

The two spoke to Haoyu with smiles on their faces.

“Haa~, you heard that right? Since the two of them have spoken the same thing, there shouldn’t be any problem,” Haoyu said.

"Anyway, I think we’ve taken too much time here. I’m planning to have Yao Yin show me and Mei Qi around the city. If we take any more time here, then I wouldn’t have enough time to spend on taking a stroll around the city.

“This is my first time visiting this city, so I’m feeling a little bit excited. I hope you understand,” he added.

Xia Ling Long turned confused upon hearing what Haoyu said.

“First time? Does this mean that you’ve really never visited the city before? Are you not from here?” Xia Ling Long asked out of her curiosity.

“Ahh, that’s not it. How about you escort us to the front door and while we’re on our way, I’ll answer every question you had in your mind?” Haoyu replied as he silently removed the illusion array that he had set up to cover his surroundings before.

“Well, it seems like a good idea. I’ll go with that,” Xia Ling Long said.

The four of them then, without any further ado, made their way to the front door.

As the sword section was a little bit far from the front door, Xia Ling Long got a chance to ask a few questions to Shu Haoyu.

As they were too indulged in chatting, they didn’t notice that they had arrived at the front door.

“Hey Haoyu, it looks like this is the time to bid our farewell for today to Miss Xia,” Yao Yin suddenly spoke.

“Ah, seems like it. So I guess this is the end of our meeting today. Thank you for your help, Miss Xia!” Shu Haoyu said after extending his hand for a handshake in a respectful manner.

Xia Ling Long then took out a golden token from her pocket and gave it to Shu Haoyu.

“Here, take this, Myriad Golden Token. From now on, you’re a distinguished guest of Myriad Forging Store and this token is the proof of it. Take it as a gift from me,” she said after handing out the token to Shu Haoyu.

“Oh, if you say so then I won’t be polite. Thank you!” Shu Haoyu thanked her before making his way out from the store followed by the two girls.
