Chapter 62 This is clearly the life essence!
"This year, Twin Moon City is more vibrant than last year, and the environment within the city is also much better than last year. At least there are trash cans on the streets now."
On Silvermoon Street in Twinmoon City, Xavier Finch looked at the clean streets and his impression of Twinmoon City improved somewhat.
He is the captain of the Grey Wolf Squad of the Fairy Tale Mercenary Group. He has returned to the Northern Territory after a year to see if his brother is still alive.
Accompanying him was Vivian Blackwood, the leader of the Red Hats squad.
Vivian's outfit was too eye-catching: a bright red leather jacket, black leather pants, and black boots.
She and this bald, one-eyed giant walked down the street, a classic beauty and the beast story.
Pedestrians would avoid him like the plague if they saw this bald, one-eyed, burly man.
"It's far inferior to our Fairy Tale City." Vivian thought the environment of Twin Moon City was just average.
Why did Grace and Aston decide to come back to live here?
What is there here that they would like to remember?
That silver-white twin moon tower?
"This is, after all, the hometown of Aston and Grace, so let's give it more credit."
Vivian, her lips ablaze with fiery red, touched her felt hat and glanced at Xavier. "If Aston were still alive, could you convince him to come back to Fairy Tale City with us?"
"If you can convince Grace to go back to Fairy Tale Town, it'll save me a lot of trouble." The bald, burly Xavier grinned. "Hopefully my brother is still alive. I brought three bottles of the Water of Life this time; hopefully, they'll prolong his life."
"Xavier, you're too flashy. Look, you mentioned the Water of Life, and it caught the attention of that little girl with half-green and half-white hair. Let's see what you do when she tries to buy it from you."
As soon as Vivian finished speaking, she saw the little girl who had just passed them turn around, glance at the two of them, and then run a few steps to stand in front of her and Xavier.
"Hello, my name is Sophia. I overheard you mentioning the 'Water of Life' earlier. May I take a look at it?"
"No, little friend, the water of life on us is for our friends, not for sale. Even if you have money, we can't sell it to you."
"No, no, no, you've misunderstood. I also have the Water of Life. If you want it, I can sell you two bottles."
"???"
Vivian and the bald, one-eyed, muscular man Xavier exchanged a glance and smiled.
The barren North is simply not attractive to the kingdom's major merchant guilds.
The major merchant guilds don't even bother to set up branches in the North, and small caravans won't spend a lot of money to buy the Water of Life to sell in the North.
Besides the fear of losing money, the road to the North is also difficult, requiring vigilance against bandits, mountain thieves, and various magical beasts.
"Little sister, how about this? You show us your water of life first, and then we'll show you our water of life, okay?"
Vivian didn't mock the little girl in front of her; instead, she smiled and teased her.
To her surprise, the little girl named Sophia seemed to take her words seriously.
Sofia did take Vivian's words seriously; she could tell from Vivian's clothes that Vivian was not from the North.
Emily, dressed as a maid, walked up behind Sophia, took out a thumb-sized bottle of life essence tree sap from her spatial ring, and handed it to Sophia.
Sophia took the sap from the Tree of Life and handed it directly to Vivian, saying, "Check it out and see how our 'Water of Life' is."
Vivian scoffed, thinking that this little girl had probably never seen the real Water of Life.
However, she still pretended to be very interested, took the "water of life" from Sophia's hand, and opened the bottle.
The moment she lowered her head, Vivian's smile vanished, her body tensed instantly, and a look of surprise appeared in her fiery red eyes.
A rich life force emanated from the thumb-sized glass bottle, startling her so much that she instinctively covered it with the stopper.
Her right hand, holding the glass bottle, trembled slightly; it really was the "water of life"!
Moreover, the little girl's life essence was extremely pure, far surpassing the "life essence" in their bodies.
"What's wrong?" Xavier, the bald, one-eyed strong man, saw Vivian's expression change drastically and a look of surprise appeared in his pale golden eyes. Could it be that the little girl gave Vivian the real Water of Life?
"It's true."
"?" Bald Xavier was astonished. He took the glass bottle from Vivian's hand, uncorked it, and then tremblingly put the bottle back on.
This...this...this is the Water of Life?!
This is clearly the life essence!
"Now can you show me your water of life?"
"..."
Vivian and Xavier exchanged a glance; it was now even less likely they would show Sophia their "Water of Life."
Because their water of life is true water!
It's simply not presentable.
Emily bypassed Sophia, trying to take the 'Life Essence Tree Sap' back from Xavier's hand, and Xavier instinctively raised the bottle above his head.
Realizing his behavior was extremely rude, he lowered his hand and looked intently at Sophia: "Little girl, will you sell this Water of Life? If so, how much?"
How much are you willing to pay to buy it?
Emily spoke before Sophia could, asking Xavier a question in return.
She was afraid that if her prince spoke, it would frighten the two people in front of her.
"Three thousand gold coins! I'm willing to spend three thousand gold coins to buy this quality of life essence!"
Emily's lips twitched slightly upon hearing the price.
What a waste of money!
His Highness has given away at least 100,000 gold coins in the past few days!
Sophia was stunned. How could such a quality Life Essence Tree Sap sell for three thousand gold coins?
If she were to take out the bottle of pure life essence that Distin gave her, wouldn't one bottle sell for six...six thousand gold coins?!
"But I can't come up with three thousand gold coins right now, I can only come up with one thousand gold coins." Xavier looked ashamed. "Little sister, could you sell me this bottle of life essence for one thousand gold coins?"
I'm not buying this bottle of life essence for myself, but to save my brother and little sister. If you're willing to sell it to me for a thousand gold coins, consider it something I owe you..."
"Can."
"?"
As if afraid that Sophia would change her mind, Xavier quickly counted out a thousand gold coins, handed them to Emily, and then grabbed Vivian and ran away.
"Your Highness, this one thousand gold coins..."
"Give me five hundred...three hundred gold coins, and you can keep the rest as reserve funds for the caravan."
Sophia planned to take the three hundred gold coins to the dragon Diding in Hell that night.
.......
"Xavier? Vivian? What are you two doing in the North?"
As the one-eyed, burly man Xavier dragged Vivian to the front of a dessert shop, they heard a familiar voice.
The two looked in the direction of the sound and saw Aston, Grace, and a man in his thirties, each holding a small cake and eating it.
"Aston, my good brother, I knew you weren't dead!"
Xavier walked into the dessert shop and gave Aston a bear hug; Aston had once saved his life.
Vivian stood at the entrance of the dessert shop, looking at Aston with a mixture of surprise and uncertainty.
If she remembered correctly, when Aston left the Fairy Tale Mercenaries, half of his blond hair had turned white, his skin was loose, and he was hunched over when he stood.
Now, Aston has bright, shiny blond hair, bright, expressive eyes, stands up straight, and has firmer skin.
"Good brother, I spent a thousand gold coins to buy a bottle of extremely pure 'Life Essence' this time. You should drink it quickly and see if it works."
As he spoke, Xavier took a thumb-sized glass bottle out of his pocket and handed it to Aston.
Aston's expression became quite interesting when he saw the glass bottle in Xavier's hand...
He recognized it at a glance—it was the life essence that Princess Sophia was preparing to sell for 'one gold coin'...
