Chapter 20

The old man hurriedly opened the outer packaging of those toys, pulled out the battery gasket, and took out the battery from them.

He put several batteries on a small tray, shook his hand over the top of his head, and carefully placed it on the counter.

He shrinked behind the counter, and peeped at the horrible existence.

From his point of view, he could only see the white, long and slender fingers, carefully opening the back cover of the night light, and replacing the battery as if treating some kind of treasure.

After the battery was replaced, the lamp was lit.

Everyone hiding in the dark and peeking at him sighed in relief.

There came a loud sound, and a breeze blew.

After a moment, Old Hu carefully raised his head. The man standing in front of the counter was gone. A glass jar was opened on the counter, and there seemed to be a bag of candy missing.

On that empty tray, there was a magic green gleaming.

A sixth-order magic crystal!

Old Hu’s hand shook as he reached out and picked up the jade-like green magical crystal, glanced at the sun, and quickly hid it in his arms.

If all the things in the whole store were added up, it would not be worth the expensive high-level magic crystal.

The Yellow Sand Emperor paid such a high price for a few batteries and a pack of candy. Old Hu could hardly believe his eyes.

He was ecstatically rubbing the magic crystal in his arms through his clothes. He picked up the rag and wiped the glass jar with candy in front of the counter. He praised his cleverness. He put this conspicuous jar outside, otherwise there were so many grocery stores in town. Or how could such a lucky good thing have fallen in his hands?

People hiding in the dark surrounded him, “My God, the sixth order magic crystal.”

“This man is really generous. He gave it to Old Hu.”

“Didn’t I tell you last time that this man appeared in our town, took the food from my stall, and also rewarded me with a high-level crystal?”

“If we look at it this way, I hope he can come a few more times, and take things from my shop.”

“Don’t be stupid, you don’t want to think about what will happen if we did not serve him well and made him mad, our entire town would be in danger.”

“What danger? How is this world today? Isn’t it dangerous? Spring City looks bustling. A ninth-order demon appeared recently. That’s a ninth-order demon! The city owner took the city’s saints out of the city to fight for days. I don’t know how many people have died. Isn’t that dangerous?”

Ye Peitian accompanied by the yellow sand, slowly walked on the vast Gobi beach outside the town. The gravel ground rustled with his footsteps.

He opened the bag of candies in his hands. The candies were beautifully packed and brightly colored. Each candy was printed with a beautiful pattern and sprinkled with a layer of white frosting. It looked high-end and delicate, very delicious and attractive.

It looked much better than the dark yellow crystal candy that he ate last time.

Ye Peitian put one slowly in his mouth but felt that the taste in his mouth was not right. No matter how he ate it, there was no such thrilling sweetness.

As the most powerful person on the planet, his hearing sensitivity was different from ordinary people. When he left, the words of the town residents’ talks came into his ears.

Near the Spring City, high-level demons, most of the saints in the city were dispatched…

Ye Peitian’s footsteps turned a corner and moved in direction to the Spring City from where he had just returned.
