Chapter 1065 - 23: Want to See You

Tianmiao was completely unaware that someone had followed her as she eagerly descended to the mortal world. She had long heard sister and sister Ting Lan chat about the mortal world’s food being extremely delicious, and for a while, she’d been wanting to try it but had never had the opportunity. Finally, she had the chance!

Training needs to be done, but eating delicious food also needs to be done.

Regarding the order, of course, food comes first.

The figure following behind Tianmiao watched as she headed straight for the mortal market without looking back, and a smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.

His Miaomiao, she hadn’t changed.

Tianmiao remembered the notes her sister had written, so before landing, she pinched a hand technique, transforming into a very ordinary-looking man, which would save her a lot of trouble.

Walking through the market, Tianmiao felt that she couldn’t see enough and everything was very novel. Waves of aromas wafted by, guiding Tianmiao toward it. She saw a variety of street food stalls lined up by the roadside.

In the mortal world, it seems you need silver to eat. Tianmiao touched her sachet, which contained two silver melon seeds given by her sister. She wondered how much she could buy with them.

Tianmiao didn’t immediately buy anything to eat; instead, she stood aside and observed how much others paid. Once she had a rough idea, she sat down herself and ordered two bowls of small wontons.

When paying, the boss looked at the silver melon seed Tianmiao handed over and was somewhat at a loss.

"Well, customer, this silver melon seed is more valuable than silver of this weight, but I don’t know how much more valuable, and I can’t give you change," said the honest boss, revealing the truth rather than taking advantage of Tianmiao.

"It’s fine, just treat it as regular silver," Tianmiao smiled.

"Wait!" At that moment, a little hand reached over, grabbed the silver melon seed from the boss, and handed over ten copper coins, "My sister forgot to bring money, so I brought it for her."

"That’s much better." The boss happily accepted the copper coins.

Tianmiao looked at the child who paid for her, slightly stunned.

"Follow me." The child handed back the silver melon seed to Tianmiao and pulled her away.

"Thank you, Little Crab," Tianmiao smiled gratefully.

"You’re welcome, White Radish." After reaching a secluded spot, the child put his hands on his hips, "I am the Water God of West Lake, don’t call me Little Crab."

"Didn’t you call me White Radish first?" Tianmiao looked at the proud face of the little child and felt an urge to pinch his cheeks for some reason.

"Weren’t you the first to call me? I’m Tianmiao, what’s your name?" Tianmiao asked.

"Meeting you randomly, there’s no need to care about names. This is for you; you can pawn it for silver taels, likely around three hundred taels," the little boy took out a round pearl and handed it to Tianmiao.

"Then this is for you," Tianmiao also took out a white strand and handed it to the little boy, "If you get injured or sick, you can eat this."

"Thank you very much." The little boy immediately understood that this was a strand from Tianmiao the Radish, full of spiritual energy, which would be of great benefit to him if consumed. Exchange a pearl for such a precious item—he actually made a profit.

"I’m heading back now; come to the edge of West Lake if you need anything," the little boy waved to Tianmiao.

"Okay, see you." Tianmiao waved back.

...

The little boy held the radish strand and watched it while walking, and the next moment, his previously clear vision was engulfed by a shadow. He slowly looked up and saw a handsome man in a black robe looking at him coldly. A powerful and terrifying aura instantly enveloped him, and the little boy felt all his hairs stand on end.
