Chapter 160: Ghost in the Magic World - Beginning (6)

It was because of this anomaly that Xiang Kui was called to this world.

But her soul was not compatible with Shang Xiyue and others, so her only option was to replace Shang Kui in this world.

Xiang Kui reviewed the information that came up in her mind slowly but surely.

Due to memory suppression, the information that she could receive was very limited, which made Xiang Kui somewhat dissatisfied. Then again, even if she knew something, she had no intention of coming to find Bing Hong Xiang nor Shang Xiyue.

Shang Kui avoided the two of them for a reason.

It was because she could see what Bing Hong Xiang and Shang Xiyue hid deep inside their bodies.

Their secrets were extremely transparent in Shang Kui’s eyes and she didn’t dare to speak to anyone about this matter. Otherwise, the enemies she had to face would be the Duan Family and the Sheng Family together.

Shang Kui was afraid.

And Xiang Kui felt that it would be better for her not to approach them and destroy Shang Kui’s personality.

"Without Bing Hong Xiang, Duan Rong Yu would have been the first one." Jun Lin clicked his tongue with dissatisfaction.

He didn’t know why but he disliked Bing Hong Xiang more than anyone else. It was as if this Bing Hong Xiang was a plague that Jun Lin had to avoid at all cost.

Just mentioning him alone was more than enough to make him feel annoyed.

"Um." Xiang Kui could only nod.

"Anyway, thanks for the medicine and let’s try our cooperation tomorrow during the practice class."

There were still a few more days before the graduation exam and every students would still go to school for class.

Shang Kui and Jun Lin were clearly not exception.

One didn’t have any reason not to go to class and the other one had to study and learn so that he could change his fate.

"Okay." Xiang Kui agreed quickly.

The two of them went their separate ways and Xiang Kui slowly made her way back to the Sheng Family. She was actually thinking about using the large amount of money that Shang Kui had in her hand to prepare for the future.

No matter what, Shang Kui still knew what would happen in the future.

And the most important one was to prepare enough medicine, food, and drink because they would become rare when the anomaly happened.

Xiang Kui’s eyes flickered slightly.

She swiftly changed her footsteps and then went to the market where she bought a large number of food.

"It’s rare to see you buy so much supplies." The store owner was surprised when he saw Shang Kui came and bought a lot of things.

"Uhm... for exams," Xiang Kui made excuse.

Thinking that the exams for the newly graduated magic students would involve both theoretical and practical exams, the store owner nodded in understanding. "In that case, you can buy more. Who knows if you would need it?"

Though, the survival exam shouldn’t be that difficult.

But the store owner didn’t know that much.

Xiang Kui nodded and then went to buy more medicine and food from other stores. She made sure that her purchase was still within the ’reasonable’ range for every store so that they would not be too suspicious.

Some medicines were more expensive, but they were nothing for Shang Kui.

She has a lot of money in her hand that couldn’t be used.

Seeing that there were still a lot of money, Xiang Kui decided that she would buy some magic tools. Magic tools were more expensive and she would be able to use up most of her money by then.

In this way, Xiang Kui spent the entire noon spending more than half of Shang Kui’s saving and the rest were kept for the next purchase. She bought a lot of flying knives too that suited Shang Kui the most.

In a month or so, the price of everything would skyrocketed.

So Xiang Kui used this chance to stock up supplies that were necessary for her survival and life.

Not only for her own sake but also her teammates.

When she went back, Xiang Kui was stunned when she saw Shang Family Head was waiting in front of the door.

Shang Kui indeed didn’t go out of the Shang Family much, but it was not like she stayed holed up in the Shang Family for her entire life. There were still times when she went out and all.

Because of that, it was still rare for Shang Kui to see Shang Family Head.

"F...Father," Xiang Kui called out, feeling somewhat nauseated in her heart. To be honest, she felt that the Shang Family Head was not qualified to be called as father. He never truly cared for his daughter and instead cared for the Shang Family more than annoying.

While it was not wrong when one thought about his profession as the Shang Family Head, but for his family members, it was disappointing.

Not to mention, Shang Kui’s mother had passed away a long time ago and it was basically impossible for Shang Kui to share what she thoughts to others.

Her father is more like a stranger to her.

So the relationship between Shang Family Head and Shang Kui was truly estranged.

"Where did you go?" Shang Family Head asked.

Magic A City might be relatively safe, but for a useless young miss yet having a powerful family background like Xiang Kui, it was still dangerous. There might be some people with bad intention out there who wanted to kidnap Shang Kui and made trouble for the Shang Family.

When the Shang Family Head thought about it, he couldn’t help but frown.

"I bought supplies and found a teammate," Xiang Kui said slowly, half stammering when she spoke.

"Who?" Shang Family Head asked.

"Jun Lin."

Jun Lin.

It was truly a familiar name, but the Shang Family Head never expected that his daughter would end up teaming up with that young man.
