Let there be a circular pool nearby, with a rockery about two point six meters high in the center, and at this moment, Zhong Shenxiu was hugging the rockery, touching and laughing, as if he had gone mad.

Not to mention Gesgale and the others being stunned, even Angelia and the others who had been following Zhong Shenxiu for so long were dumbfounded!

Zhong Shenxiu paid no attention to their gazes. The excitement in his heart at this moment could no longer be described in words. This rockery was none other than the "Xiangyan Stone" he had come seeking this time.

Although its external appearance differed slightly from the "Xiangyan Stone" he had obtained earlier, this was the genuine article!

To think there was such a large piece of "Xiangyan Stone" here; with this, Zhong Shenxiu could finally begin refining the "Medium Pouch"! He hadn't expected that after searching everywhere, he'd find it without any effort!

It seems this truly echoes that saying: when a person is lucky, even immortals cannot stop them!

"Father, who are those people?" the middle-aged man finally couldn't contain his curiosity and asked. He hadn't expected his father to bring back such strangely dressed individuals this time, and what was wrong with that little boy? Had he fallen ill?

"I'll tell you later. Be careful not to speak carelessly!" Gesgale was also puzzled by Zhong Shenxiu's actions, but he first needed to instruct his son properly, otherwise offending Zhong Shenxiu with an inappropriate word would be disastrous!

"Lisa, go play with Manlange first!" Gesgale set down Lisa from his arms, then walked towards Zhong Shenxiu and the others.

"Sirs, if you don't mind, how about staying here for a few days?" Gesgale asked very politely.

To be honest, he was quite reluctant to let Zhong Shenxiu go, as he still had many questions to ask. Moreover, he wanted to introduce Zhong Shenxiu to his old friend, Oggus, who also had many unresolved issues!

"Hey, old man, how about giving me this rockery?" Zhong Shenxiu asked directly.

Oggus was momentarily taken aback. He hadn't expected someone as formidable as Zhong Shenxiu to be interested in such an ordinary rockery. Perhaps the actions of true masters are difficult to fathom!

"If the young friend likes it, please just take it!" Oggus appeared very generous.

However, what left him quite speechless was that as soon as he finished speaking, the rockery had vanished. That speed was simply too fast!

"Hey, old man, do you have a quiet room here?" Zhong Shenxiu suddenly inquired.

He couldn't wait any longer to start refining his "Medium Pouch," and he could also sense that Oggus needed something from him. Coincidentally, he was very curious whether there were any other treasures in this manor, so he decided to do Oggus a favor! Staying at someone's place and still managing to do them a favor. Why had a "mouse" like him never encountered such a good deal?

"Yes, yes!" Oggus replied excitedly, quickly calling servants to prepare several quiet courtyards, his expression suggesting fear that if he were a step slower, Zhong Shenxiu might change his mind!

In this manor, Oggus was the head of the household, and his word was law. Although many people found it strange why Oggus showed such respect to these oddly dressed individuals, they dared not ask any questions.

These servants were clearly well-trained; within moments, five small courtyards were ready, enough for Zhong Shenxiu and his group to stay.

"Go instruct the kitchen to prepare a banquet!" Oggus commanded next, his expression even more eager than Zhong Shenxiu's.

In the room, Zhong Shenxiu brought out all the gathered materials; he was about to start refining the "Medium Pouch." Since he could not be disturbed during the process, after setting up several layers of barriers, Zhong Shenxiu also asked Robin to stand guard outside.

As his hands continuously formed seals, the temperature of the Samadhi True Fire rose continuously. Under the action of the flames, the materials began to melt...

Time passed bit by bit, and before they knew it, it was already evening. Robin stood guard quietly outside, not even going out for lunch!

At this moment, Oggus came again, asking only one question: "Has the young friend finished yet?"

Robin shook his head, and then Oggus left! Time passed again, and then a soft call suddenly came from inside the room: "Robin, come in here for a moment!"

Robin's face lit up, and he immediately went in: "Master!"

Although Zhong Shenxiu showed signs of fatigue, it couldn't hide the excitement and elation on his face.

Hours of effort had not been in vain; he had finally initially completed the "Medium Pouch." The reason it was called "initial" was because there were still some parts requiring adjustment, and the internal modification of the "Medium Pouch's" space needed to continue.

The reason Zhong Shenxiu called Robin in was to transfer the "Tree of Primordial Growth" stored in Robin's "Storage Bracelet" into the "Medium Pouch"!

Robin's "Storage Bracelet" was never suitable for the growth of the "Tree of Primordial Growth"; keeping it there was merely a temporary measure. Now that the "Medium Pouch" was refined, it naturally had to be moved in first, as this would be beneficial for the "Tree of Primordial Growth."

Through his recent efforts, Zhong Shenxiu had made the necessary preparations; now he only needed to tell Robin some precautions.

Just like when it was first taken in, releasing the "Tree of Primordial Growth" was no simple task, and transferring it directly from the "Storage Bracelet" into the "Medium Pouch" increased the difficulty significantly!

But there was no need to worry; things that were impossible in the eyes of outsiders became much simpler when it came to Zhong Shenxiu!

After several more hours, the complicated transfer process was finally completed smoothly. By this time, beads of sweat were trickling down the foreheads of both Zhong Shenxiu and Robin, illustrating how difficult the task had been!

"Done, it's been successfully completed!" Zhong Shenxiu gave Robin a knowing smile.

Robin smiled back. Being able to help Zhong Shenxiu was what brought her the greatest joy!

By this time, the night sky was completely dark. Perhaps due to cloud cover today, it felt somewhat cool outside.

Both Zhong Shenxiu and Robin hadn't eaten for nearly a day. Now that everything had gone smoothly, they certainly couldn't continue on an empty stomach. At the very least, they had to reward Robin, the big eater!

Thus, the two transformed into two dark shadows, heading out under the cover of night.

The streets of "Ivorbury" were brightly lit. Because the "Magic Exchange Conference" was about to be held, major shops remained bustling even late into the night!

The two small figures of Zhong Shenxiu and Robin walked down the street, searching for a suitably appealing restaurant.

They walked on, crossing several blocks, still unable to find a restaurant that caught their eye. Just then, a conversation between passersby attracted Zhong Shenxiu's attention.

"Have you heard? Wu Feiyan will be appearing again today at the 'Wind and Snow Pavilion'! The competition to catch a glimpse of her beauty and hear that mysterious zither music is fierce!"

"If only I had the money, I'd definitely go to the 'Wind and Snow Pavilion' to see it!"

"I advise you to stop dreaming. That place is not something people like us can afford. Do you know, many people are willing to offer up to a million diamond coins just to listen to one piece by Wu Feiyan?"

"Alas, comparing people really makes one despair."

The voices of the two faded away, but Zhong Shenxiu kept repeating three words in his mind: "Wind and Snow Pavilion"? What kind of place was that? It sounded like it would be quite lively!

Curiosity piqued, he asked the pedestrians for directions and then headed toward the so-called "Wind and Snow Pavilion" with Robin!

Zhong Shenxiu went with the intention of seeing the excitement, while Robin was simply focused on finding food. The two thus arrived at the "Wind and Snow Pavilion"!

This place truly lived up to its reputation as a den of extravagance. As they neared the pavilion, the fragrance of perfume wafted over them. Looking up, they saw the exquisitely elegant pavilion adorned with colorful lanterns. Many people were gathered outside, though most appeared to be of noble attire, only a select few possessed the right to enter.

The entrance fee alone cost hundreds of thousands of diamond coins; the luxury inside was beyond imagining!

The moment Zhong Shenxiu and Robin reached the entrance, they immediately drew everyone's attention:

"Hey, look, such little kids actually coming here. Do they even know what musical rhythm is?"

"I think they're just here to join the fun, hehe. We can't even get in, they don't stand a chance!"

"Heh heh, you have the nerve to say that. If you were willing to fork out a few million diamond coins at once, no one would stop you," someone nearby laughed and cursed.

Amidst the crowd's murmuring, Zhong Shenxiu and Robin were stopped by two burly men.

Perhaps due to professional conduct, they didn't show the same disdain as the other nobles toward Zhong Shenxiu and Robin, but instead asked according to the standard procedure: "If you wish to enter, you must first pay three million diamond coins, otherwise, queue up like everyone else."

At this, some of the nobles started laughing again.

"Ha! This is hilarious, asking two kids for three million diamond coins. I bet neither of them even knows what a diamond coin looks like!"

"Little ones, hurry back, this isn't a place for you two! Haha!"

"If even children could enter as generously as the few gentlemen before us, I'd definitely bring my son next time too!"

Zhong Shenxiu ignored these taunts, merely asking the two burly men blocking the way faintly: "Is there food inside?"

One of the big men nodded expressionlessly. Then he added: "There are superior banquets inside, the best in 'Ivorbury'!"

That was enough. Zhong Shenxiu didn't need to know anything more, as long as he knew there was fine cuisine here!

Robin, having received a subtle signal from Zhong Shenxiu, stepped forward lightly and took out the savings card that only the highest nobility possessed.

In that instant, the surrounding laughter ceased immediately. Everyone stared with disbelief at the small, fair hand Robin extended, their eyes wide...
