170 Purchasing The Elemental Daggers
“Oh?” Shen Fei squinted his eyes and carefully examined the daggers. His eyes gradually lit up.

The stall owner took out a dagger and passed it to Shen Fei, “If you like it, you can pick two.”

Shen Fei nodded. He picked up one of the daggers and tried it out. In an instant, he felt the blood-flow in his body speed up significantly. At the same time, a warm current spread throughout his body, starting from the dagger, nourishing his body and increasing his strength.

Shen Fei thought to himself, ‘As expected of a treasure.”

“Sir, if you want a fire-attribute dagger, you can ask the lady boss behind me.” The stall owner pointed at a beautiful woman in a cheongsam behind him. She was gorgeous and had a lithe figure. Shen Fei turned around and saw her sizing him up with interest.

!!
The woman was about 1.78 meters tall and looked professional. Her long and slender legs were fair and soft, and her delicate facial features were alluring. She had an ample bosom and a small waist. Her long hair spilled down to just below her slender waist, almost touching her porcelain legs. She wore a pair of crystal sandals, and her entire person was full of charm, which would make anyone’s heart race.

“Hello, I would like to purchase a fire-attribute dagger from you.” Shen Fei smiled at the beautiful lady.

“Oh? You actually want a fire-attribute dagger?” the beautiful lady said, surprised. She could see that Shen Fei was not from a rich family, so she was rather suspicious of him.

Shen Fei nodded and said, “Yes, I’d like a fire-attribute dagger, or a dark-attribute dagger. Both are fine.”

When the woman heard this, she immediately took out two brocade boxes from under the counter and pushed them in front of Shen Fei, saying, “Sir, there are two daggers in here. One with the fire attribute, and one with the dark attribute.

Shen Fei received the brocade box and opened it. What his eyes landed on was a flaming red dagger. The surface of the dagger was round, and the blade glowed with a faint flame. The surrounding temperature rose instantly, almost roasting the very air, and even breathing felt hotter. The dagger gave off an unusually domineering feeling.

On the other hand, the surface of the dark-attribute dagger was pitch-black, as viscous as ink, and it exuded a sinister chill, as if it was a demon from hell.

“How much are the daggers?” Shen Fei asked.

That beautiful lady was a little taken aback. She never thought that Shen Fei would actually ask about the price. However, the woman quickly reacted and said with a smile, “These daggers are made from the condensation of volcanic lava, so they’re quite valuable. The dark-attribute dagger is forged from darksteel. Although it’s not as good as the other dagger, it’s not much worse.

“The price of this dagger is 20,000 low-grade spirit stones,” the woman said after a pause.

After listening, Shen Fei nodded his head. This price was really not bad. Moreover, the dagger also had a fire-attribute special effect, which would be of great help to him.

He took out 30,000 spirit stones from his coin pouch and handed them to the beautiful woman. “Many thanks, miss.”

Shen Fei was about to leave after that when suddenly, he stopped and turned back around to the beautiful lady,

“Miss, is there a refiner’s guild nearby?”

The beautiful woman was a little surprised when she heard this, but then she smiled and replied, “There is.” As she spoke, she stretched out her hand and pointed, “In the second pavilion over there is a refiner’s guild that is currently running an auction. Here, we only accept spirit stones and nothing else.”

Shen Fei nodded. He did not think too much about it and just walked to where the woman pointed.

The refiner’s guild was located in the north side of the city square. It was a five-story pavilion, and there were a few guards standing outside the door. When Shen Fei arrived, he went straight into the pavilion.

After entering the guild, Shen Fei discovered that the decorations here were quite elegant and abundant. There were all kinds of equipment and weapons on display.

The refiner’s guild was divided into five levels. The higher one went, the more elegant and comfortable the environment was, and the more expensive and rare the products were. On top of that, the refinement masters would use the materials themselves for weapon refinement. The materials were so difficult to obtain that they would rather not hire outsiders to do the refinement for them.

In addition to weapons and refining materials, there were also many cultivation manuals, martial technique books, array drawings, pills, and other such things for sale. These were all put on display for patrons to browse.

“The weapons and equipment in this guild are indeed above average. But the quality of these pills and martial arts manuals are clearly not as good as the secret manuals I have.” Shen Fei muttered to himself.

At this moment, a voice suddenly sounded beside Shen Fei. “Young sir, this must be your first time here. I’m Qin Yuwei, nice to meet you.”

Shen Fei turned his head to look. What met his eyes was a beautiful and charming face. This was a beautiful woman in her twenties, wearing a form-fitting cheongsam that outlined her graceful curves. With a voluptuous figure and a curvaceous body, her entire figure was filled with an alluring charm, the kind of mature charm that easily attracted men’s eyes.

“My name is Shen Fei.” Shen Fei nodded.

He stared at Qin Yuwei, and thought of the shop owner’s appearance from earlier. The shop owner’s beauty was not inferior to Qin Yuwei’s.

Qin Yuwei caught Shen Fei staring at her, and a smile appeared on her face. Shen Fei awkwardly coughed and immediately shifted his gaze.

Qin Yuwei chuckled and said, “What kind of refining room would you like?”

Shen Fei pondered for a moment and said, “The best one.”

“The best refining room?” Qin Yuwei was somewhat surprised. She did not expect this young man to be so rich that he would ask for the best refining room. She took a better look at Shen Fei, then led him to the top level of the refiner’s guild.

The top level of the guild had a total of nine floors. The hall on the first floor was filled with all kinds of crafting facilities, including crafting furnaces and crafting materials. There were also dozens of craftsmen gathered here. Most of them were focused on their own work and were busy with their own affairs. Occasionally, a few craftsmen would chat with each other.

After Shen Fei and Qin Yuwei reached the top level, they walked to the stairs that led to the sixth floor. The sixth floor of the refiner’s guild was very spacious and bright. There was a wide variety of items here that were dazzling to see, and shocking to the beholder. However, the items on this floor were extremely expensive.

For example, a low spirit-tier armor would cost 100,000 low-grade spirit stones. Another example was a medium spirit-tier dagger, which cost 150,000 low-grade spirit stones!

Shen Fei roughly estimated that the items on the sixth floor were more than double the price of the items on the fourth floor.

After pondering for a moment, Shen Fei bought three more daggers. They granted fire-attribute attacks, which suited him most.

“Young sir, may I ask again which refining room quality will you require?” Qin Yuwei asked with a smile.

“The best one,” Shen Fei replied.
