Chapter 4917 I Should Have Asked For More
The staff's eyes widened in surprise. “Where did you get this token from?”
His sharp tone immediately irritated Jared.
“Why does it matter how I got it? Just tell me, can it be exchanged for celestial coins or not?” Jared asked coldly.
“Give me a second!” The staff handed the token to Jared and then rushed off toward the back.
Before long, a middle-aged man in a gray robe appeared, his face breaking into a wide smile. “I'm the owner here. Please, come in.”
Upon seeing that the store owner was rather polite, Jared and his two companions decided to follow him inside.
However, no sooner had Jared entered the room than he noticed the arcane array around the room spring to life.
Jared's brows furrowed in suspicion, and in an instant, he reached out to seize the store owner.
The abrupt activation of the arcane array was a clear sign that trouble was brewing.
Yet, in an instant, the store owner's figure vanished, only to reappear behind Jared and his companions.
Flaxseed and Reidan reacted instinctively, both whirling around to strike at the store owner without hesitation.
The store owner pressed his palm down, and an overwhelming aura engulfed the entire room.
Jared and Flaxseed felt as though the weight of a thousand mountains had suddenly descended upon them, rendering them completely immobile.
“What are you trying to do?” Jared demanded, his gaze locked onto the store owner.
“Answer me, where did this token come from?”
The store owner's tone had lost all traces of its previous politeness.
“It was a gift!”
“Who gave it to you?”
“Rainah. She's supposed to be the princess of Rhino City.”
At that moment, a wave of regret washed over Jared, but he knew there was no turning back now.
“Ten days,” the store owner stated. “If the item isn't redeemed by then, it will officially belong to the Heavenly Treasure Pavilion.”
“Understood,” Jared replied with a nod before leaving with Flaxseed and Reidan.
As the trio walked away, their faces lit up with joy, prompting the store owner to smirk slightly.
“Sir, I doubt these guys will ever come back to reclaim the token, right?” the staff asked.
“They had no clue about its true value. If they had, they wouldn't have pawned it so easily. A newcomer, guided by the heaven and earth laws, has unexpectedly ended up with the princess' token... Things are about to get interesting.”
The store owner's eyes narrowed slightly before he retrieved an intricately crafted wooden box and placed the token inside.
He then forced out a drop of blood essence, allowing it to fall onto the box. Instantly, an eerie red glow enveloped it.
Meanwhile, as Jared and his companions exited the Heavenly Treasure Pavilion, Biggo was still waiting outside. Seeing Jared emerge, Biggo eagerly asked, “Did you manage to get any celestial coins?”
