Forsaken Immortals Chapter 38

"She is mute, deaf, and dumb?" Xue Jingyu was shocked, but then he began laughing out loud. "Right, that suits her!"
The branch leader was confused. Did Xue Jingyu know this woman, or was he talking randomly?
The next sentence made it clear that he knew her.
"If this Bai Rouyun appears in the Thousand Treasure Pavilion, give her the same kind of attention as you would the woman who has just left. Bai Rouyun can pick any treasure she wants and never pay for it. At the same time, she is my honored guest, understand?"
"Understood, understood," the branch leader bowed deeply and could not help but wonder what was going on with his master. Why was it that he was unaware when fools had become such highly demanded goods?
Even so, he dared not go against his master's words, and thus he promised him.
Bai Rouyun was strolling around the first floor of the Thousand Treasure Pavilion. The first floor held herbs and pills, the second floor held armaments, and the third floor contained inscriptions and formation goods.
The back of the pavilion had a courtyard where one could purchase spirit beasts that had been tamed and could be taken home.
So far, Bai Rouyun had only been on the first floor of the pavilion, but she was tempted to get her hands on a sword.
In her previous life, she had been using a sword to carve her way through countless dangers, leaving behind her a trail of blood and death.
Her sword in the past life was one that had gone through countless life and death situations with her, and she missed it insanely. It was a sword that had grown by her side; she had nurtured it with her Qi, and allowed it to grow from an ordinary weapon into a spiritual weapon.

Unfortunately, it had not joined her in rebirth, and thus she needed a new sword.
The floor manager appeared with a beautiful jade box, and Bai Rouyun instantly recognized it. It was similar to the one she had gotten last time she bought a slice of the blood ginseng. Hence, she accepted it unceremoniously and stored it in the Primal Chaos Dimension, allowing for Xiao Jin to eat it right away.
"I want to look for a sword," she said to the floor manager, who felt like banging his head against the wall.
They were earning money based on a base salary, but also from commission. However, this woman could take anything for free, so they gained nothing tending to her.
"Please follow me," the floor manager did not allow for his emotions to be shown on his face and led her to the stairs. When she reached the second floor, he quickly located the floor manager on that floor and handed her over to him.
"This miss, what can I do for you?" the second-floor manager asked gently. He had already recognized the woman as everyone had been told that she was the most important of essential guests within the Thousand Treasure Pavilion.
"I am looking for a sword," she said casually as she glanced at the many armaments that were placed everywhere in the shop.
"Which kind of sword are you looking for?" the second-floor manager asked again, and Bai Rouyun paused for a moment while contemplating. "I would like a thin but long one."
Nodding his head, the floor manager brought her to the wall where one could see long and thin swords, and one of them caught her attention.
It was white and silvery, the handguard was a lotus, and the handle was perfect for her hand. The length of the sword was also perfect for her. Although it was not a spiritual weapon, it was forged with excellent quality materials.

"I'd like this sword," she said happily, her eyes having turned into crescent moons from smiling so much. She liked the sword.
Hearing this, the manager was slightly complaining in his heart. This was one of the best swords within the store, if he sold it, he would have gotten a high commission, but now he wouldn't be able to earn even a cent.
However, he knew that this woman had connections to Xue Jingyu, so he dared not go against her; neither would he ever leave a wrong impression on her, so just as he was about to wrap it up, an arrogant voice sounded in the room.
"Halt!" The floor manager did stop what he was doing and looked at the woman who had appeared.
She was wearing beautiful clothes, and her body was covered with jewelry. She had a haughty and arrogant atmosphere around her, and she was filled with hostility when looking at Bai Rouyun.
"I want that sword!" she said with her chin held high, her eyes filled with ridicule and mockery as she looked at Bai Rouyun.
Bai Rouyun was, however, just smiling slightly. Her arms were crossed over her chest, and she was leaning against a table, seemingly lazy.
The second-floor manager was suddenly caught in a bad position. He wanted to sell it to the woman who had just appeared, but he dared not.
He looked at Bai Rouyun and gathered his courage to say, "why don't you let this woman get it?"
But Bai Rouyun shook her head, "I took a fancy to this sword, why would I let others get my things?"
"You have not paid for it yet, so it is not yours!" the woman answered haughtily, but her words caused Bai Rouyun to laugh out loud.
"I do not have to pay for anything within this Thousand Treasure Pavilion. Anything I want will be mine!"
