Chapter 242: Spending Trial Points in Alchemy.

After walking for some minutes, they reached the alchemy store they first visited. Yasenia spotted a group of cultivators at the counter, speaking with the shopkeeper. First and foremost, the dragoness measured their strength. She didn't want to offend someone stronger than herself. However, after looking for a while, she classified them as "not bad," nothing that could threaten her.

The chubby shopkeeper saw Yasenia and her group approaching and smiled. Even if they hadn't seen for two days, the extremely beautiful dragoness had left a deep impression on him. He could still remember the fragrant moment when Yasenia tap kissed him on the cheek.

He stopped speaking with the other group and welcomed them. "I hope you had a good harvest these days, beautiful Immortal. I've been waiting for your return eagerly!"

Yasenia smiled and answered, "Let's speak later. You can finish your business with them first; we aren't in a hurry."

The group was about to protest but closed their mouths when they heard her. They thought that Yasenia would be unreasonable and go before them, but to their surprise, she didn't take their turn.

One man and five women turned and looked at Yasenia to thank her, only to have their breath stolen by the dragoness. Yasenia looked at their expressions and smirked, amused. 'I hope they are reasonable.'

Angel and Kali had learned to take these reactions with humor while thinking. 'As expected, another group that falls to Yasenia's charm.'

The leader, a handsome young man, presented himself with a charming smile to Yasenia. "Hello. I'm Lin Yuan, from the [Azure Dragon Sect]. It is a pleasure to meet you!"

Yasenia's long tail lazily swished as she answered with a smile on her own. Her voice deep and mellow, tingling their senses. "Good afternoon. My name is Katherine, from the Moon Empire."

Lin Yuan nodded and asked, "Are the four ladies alone? I wouldn't mind adding the four of you to our group. I see that the strongest in your group is on the eight-level, so you might have problems with strong cultivators."

Yasenia saw that all six of them were in the Half-step, so she asked, acting weak. "Um... All of you are in the half-step. Wouldn't we be too much of a bother? Moreover, we won't be able to win too many Trial Points if we challenge the same things as you...."

The man thought that she had a point, so he sighed. "What a shame; I really wanted to have you on our team. Even if your cultivation is low, I can feel that you are somewhat strong."

Yasenia acted flattered, "How could it be? All I am is a pretty face; I'm not as good as the other women in your group."

The women that were getting annoyed because they liked this man felt their anger dissipate and looked at Yasenia more warmly. 'At least she knows her place.' Were the collective thoughts of the women.

Yasenia knew that she had to act that way if she didn't want to begin another scene, so she just accepted their gazes with a smile. That smile made some of them have rosy cheeks. 'W-Well, I can admit that she is indeed beautiful.'

Lin Yuan turned toward the shopkeeper and finished his business in another ten minutes. He tried to convince Yasenia again, but Yasenia kept refusing with a humble attitude. At the end of the conversation, even the women sighed with regret. They thought that they could become good friends with someone like Yasenia.

Then, they bid farewell to Yasenia's group and the left.

When they were far away, the shopkeeper laughed, "What a smooth mouth you have. You fooled them easily. How could beautiful Immortal be as weak as she portrays?"

Yasenia smiled, "I'm used to dealing with people like them. Although being beautiful is good, being too beautiful is just a source of problems, especially in our world where people take things they covet by force."

The shopkeeper nodded, "Well, you are right. Anyway, let's go directly to the point. Are you here to ask more questions or buy things?"

Yasenia said, "Both."

The shopkeeper motioned her to go ahead. Yasenia asked, "So this happened...."

Yasenia explained her strange happening with Liu Yi and how she absorbed his Trial Points and asked about it. The shopkeeper became thoughtful, "I haven't heard of anything like that. If you want to hear the answer about battling and similar things, you should go to the Guard Captain. I recommend going to the armory and asking about the captain there, they should know his location, and if you have luck, he may be inside the armory."

The woman bowed slightly and said, "Welcome, honorable guests. What can I help you with?"

Yasenia looked at Angel and said, "Ask away, baby. If we have the Points, we will buy anything you want."

Angel rubbed her chin and asked, "Do you have deep lining formations?"

The woman nodded, "We have; they are on the top floor. Do you want me to guide you?"

Angel shook her head and continued asking questions. The woman tried to answer but was getting a little overwhelmed because the concepts Angel spoke about weren't something she could understand. This woman considered herself very knowledgeable in formation concepts, but it was clear that she was an amateur compared with Angel.

However, since Angel seemed so young, her pride was somewhat hurt, and she didn't call for a superior, trying to answer everything herself. Angel began frowning because she couldn't communicate properly.

Yasenia was about to enter the conversation, but another woman's voice came from the side. "Dear guests, how about I guide you? I can see that this cute girl is a formation expert, and our regular staff may be unable to help you."

The woman with glasses looked at that woman respectfully and with a mix of gratefulness and annoyance. Then, she bowed and excused herself.

When she relaxed, she sighed with frustration, 'I thought they were amateurs, so I looked down on them somewhat. But it felt like speaking with the association headmistress when speaking with that woman. To be so knowledgable at such a young age... Truly terrifying.'

Angel looked at the new arrival and saw that she had black-rimmed glasses. Our baby couldn't help but ask, "Do all the people here use that thing for the eyes?"

The woman put a hand on her mouth and laughed, "Why do you ask, miss?"

Angel looked around and said, "Well, I haven't seen a mortal without those yet, so I'm curious."

The woman nodded, "We use the color of the glasses as identification of our ranks in the workplace. Blue is for beginners, green is for senior employees, and red is for veteran employees."

Yasenia looked at the black-rimmed glasses of the woman and asked, "So this lady here is the owner of this place?"

The woman raised one of her willowy eyebrows and smiled, "You are quite sharp, miss."

Angel smiled proudly as if the compliment was toward herself. After a small talk, Angel realized that this woman could understand her, so she began asking questions again.

The woman answered with ease as she guided them to the fourth floor. Angel praised sincerely, "The town's residents know a lot about professions even though you are just mortals."

Yasenia patted Angel's butt and said, "Be a little more respectful, baby."

The woman said, confusing things slightly because of their current position and pet names. "Don't worry, miss. It is normal for your daughter to have these kinds of thoughts. To answer little miss, we are knowledgeable about professions thanks to the energy around here. Although we can't cultivate, we can advance in profession mastery as if we were cultivating."

Angel blushed being called Yasenia's daughter but didn't correct it. She found it strangely appealing to be called Yasenia's daughter. Yasenia chuckled and also didn't correct her mistake. Yasenia even teased Angel, "You've been asking a lot of questions already. How about you tell mama dragon what you want to buy, baby?"

Angel's blush deepened, the red even spreading to her neck. But she answered with a stutter, "I-I w-want to buy formation books that have t-these lines on them, M-m-m-mommy."

Yasenia laughed happily, being called that way, and bathed Angel in kisses. "How can my baby be so cute!"

Angel "protested" with a sweet voice between kisses, "Yasenia~ *Kiss* Stop~ *Kiss* hahaha, don't tickle me~."

The woman's face became strange, seeing that the kisses were lip-lip, but who was her to judge other families? She just waited patiently with a professional smile and waited for Angel's questions.
