In the wee hours, Royal Hotel, presidential suite, Zhu Fei's room.
Zhu Fei was holding a jade pendant and inscribed the last defensive rune into it.
In an instant, the jade pendant emitted a halo of light, which flickered on its surface for a while before ultimately vanishing into the pendant.
This was a defensive talisman, made from the Human Blood cinnabar that Zhu Fei had acquired not long ago from the Treasure Pavilion.
Previously, he and Qiu Ruoxue had only acquired two items from the Treasure Pavilion.
One was the Human Blood cinnabar, which he now used to create talismans, and the other was a piece of Artifact Refining material known as Star Sand.
Although Elder Hua had said earlier that he would give Zhu Fei anything they fancied, Zhu Fei didn't take more. On one hand, he didn't want to do so; on the other, the more important reason was that most of the items in the Treasure Pavilion weren't of much use to him and Qiu Ruoxue at the moment.
