As they ascended into the sky, the bustling noise from the marketplace faded away, leaving only the calm winds of the sky to accompany the two of them.
Elder Xiang Mei looked at Shen Yuan with a curious smile on her face, "You know how big of a stir you caused when the sect decided to give you one of the 10 positions for the Mystique Realm, yet you didn't leave your seclusion when the time came to join it."
Shen Yuan sat down on the flying artifact and calmly spoke, "I know, but that's all the more reason for me not to leave my seclusion so I can be better prepared for what is to come inside the Mystique Realm."
"Is that why you emptied out half of the market to buy supplies for the Mystique Realm?" She teased him in a light tone.
"I have a good idea for what to do with them, heh. I won't suffer a loss with this deal that I made." Shen Yuan spoke with a confident smirk on his face.
