Chapter 46: Providence Improved, Skill Leveled Up
As usual, Shen Tian was looking for a fated one in his stall.
He was very famous now, so there was a much longer queue compared to three days ago.
Some people did not believe Shen Tian and queued up again after they had been rejected.
It took Shen Tian a long time to gather 20 fated people.
What was worth mentioning was that there were actually six old customers among them. And these six old customers had given half of their Spirit Stones to Shen Tian before. Thus, a subtle atmosphere gradually formed.
...
The six of them, who had been chosen before, were glad that they had previously made the right choice.
While the other 14 fated ones previously were blaming themselves.
We must have made Master Celestial angry somehow.
It’s our fault that we missed the chance to maintain our fate with Master Celestial!
If they were given a second chance, they would be the first to run up and hug his legs and say, “I missed you so much!”
...
“Okay, we are done for the day. These are the 20 lucky individuals today.”
He led the crowd toward the Sacred Spirit Workshop.
Little Spirit Fairy followed Shen Tian too.
She had changed her clothes and had a little makeup on her. Unexpectedly, no one recognized her.
Shen Tian was very happy about it.
This disguise technique is really not inferior to mine!
...
During the days that Shen Tian had been away, the Sacred Spirit Workshop’s business had flourished a lot more than before. After all, the 36th in the Spiritual Wood List, Seven-Treasure Fairy Calabash Seed, had appeared there before!
Who knew if there were similar excellent Spirit Ores left there?
The Sacred Spirit Workshop had become a tourist attraction in the Myriad Spirit Garden.
There were huge groups of people coming by and asking Shopkeeper Liu about what had happened.
“Shopkeeper Liu, I heard that Fairy Lian’er used 50,000 Spirit Stones and bought the seed?”
“I heard that you knew it contained something good and were just waiting for someone to open it? Shopkeeper Liu, that’s a treasure! Do you not feel bad at all?”
“Sir, I have 100,000 Spirit Stones here. Can you sell me a similar ore too?”
...
“Yes, the seed is sold.”
“I’m very gifted when it comes to Spiritual Wood. I knew the seed was not ordinary indeed.”
“The Spirit Ores are destined to their own masters. I’m just glad its owner showed up already.”
100,000 Spirit Stones? Get lost!
...
Shopkeeper Liu had such similar conversations countless times every day.
His heart felt the pain each time the conversation started.
G.o.d!
Why did I not open the ore for myself!?
If I did, I’d be so successful now!
...
Forget it...
Shopkeeper Liu squeezed out a smile on his face, dealing with the customers’ queries again and again.
Business getting better was something to be happy about, after all.
He felt a little bit heartbroken, but it was fine, as long as that Master Celestial did not show up again.
Shopkeeper Liu looked outside of the store out of boredom. Then, his smile froze on his face.
The man that made him so emotional had appeared!
He felt tears rolling in his eyes again when he saw Shen Tian approaching with a group of his fans and lucky individuals.
“Shopkeeper, why are you crying again?”
Shen Tian walked into the Sacred Spirit Workshop and was stunned by Shopkeeper Liu’s tears.
Shopkeeper Liu wiped his tears and said, “Seeing you, I remembered what happened three days ago.”
Shen Tian felt very touched. “Shopkeeper Liu is so emotional! We should really have met earlier!”
“...”
Shopkeeper Liu looked at the crowd and carefully asked Shen Tian, “Master Celestial, you are here for...?”
Shen Tian smiled and said, “After three days of seclusion, I believe I’ve learned something new. I’m here to try out my skill.”
More tears formed in Shopkeeper Liu’s eyes...
Three days of seclusion, and you learned something new?
Help me, please!
You already got the Seven-Treasure Fairy Calabash Seed before your seclusion.
Now you are here again?
Why me again!?
The Sky Spirit Pavilion is better than mine!
Please go visit them!!
...
Shopkeeper Liu only dared to say those words in his heart. His image of a good and conscientious shopkeeper was too hard to get rid of. Thus, he had to ‘welcome’ Master Celestial again.
Furthermore, there were rows of other people here too.
If he dared to refuse Shen Tian to enter... his shop could be in danger!
“Congratulations, Master Celestial! Please come in!”
Shopkeeper Liu had no choice but to bring Shen Tian into the Sacred Spirit Workshop.
He was like a sheep looking at a wolf entering its sheepfold.
...
“Brother Shen, I want to try to seek ores too.”
Little Spirit Fairy looked at the Spirit Ores and felt excited.
She only knew some tricks here and there before and could not a.s.sess ores properly.
However, she had spent her time in the Celestial Water Immortal Abode for the past three days, studying the Deity Peering Art.
She believed that her ore-a.s.sessing ability had improved.
When looking at all the Spirit Ores in the Sacred Spirit Workshop, Little Spirit Fairy wanted to try out her skills.
Shen Tian smiled after hearing that.
He saw that her halo started to show some image after she said that. It was evidently the image of Little Spirit Fairy successfully obtaining the ore’s goods.
Shen Tian smiled and said, “Go on, you’ll surely find something today.”
Little Spirit Fairy blushed. She did not expect Shen Tian to encourage her so gently.
Although she had been studying the Deity Peering Art for three days, it was the first time she would try it out.
Honestly, she was not confident at all.
Shen Tian’s words had given her a lot of courage.
“Don’t worry, Brother Shen.” Little Spirit Fairy said seriously, “I will definitely not let you down!”
Shen Tian nodded. “If you encounter an ore that makes you hesitate, you can come to me.”
Little Spirit Fairy’s heart skipped a beat, and she quickly ran into the Sacred Spirit Workshop.
Shen Tian smiled, brought the lucky individuals with him, and started searching for ores.
He did not interfere with Little Spirit Fairy’s fortuitous opportunity, as he wanted her to try out her skills and have fun first!
...
It could be that he was stronger now, or it could also be that his providence had improved. Shen Tian felt that the images from the halos were much clearer to him.
When he had encountered the images leading him to the Demon Book of Hyuga and the Celestial Water Grotto-Heaven, it had just been a blurred outline.
In the *Demon Book of Hyuga’*s case, he could only see the book History Of The Great Fire, and it stopped. For the fortuitous opportunity in Celestial Water Grotto-Heaven, he had only managed to see the gate underneath the cliff.
He had not seen the book or the legacies in them—even the outline was kind of blurry.
Now, he could see the images clearly, and the description was more detailed.
He could even clearly see the outcome of each fortuitous opportunity now.
Thus, Shen Tian had a guess—his ability had leveled up!
