Chapter 23 The War

Bai Han immediately knew something was up.

He finally remembered that Shen Yi and Gu Shishi were enemies!

If he took Shen Yi in as his disciple, the two of them wouldn’t be fighting every day, right?

However, Bai Han still didn’t want to miss out on a disciple with exceptional talent.

“You’re both in the entertainment industry, so you should know each other.” Bai Han laughed awkwardly and separated the two.

He didn’t want them to start to have an argument.

“We’ve worked together a few times. Mr. Bai, grandpa said he would pay for anything you like here,” Gu Shishi glared at Shen Yi, held Bai Han’s arm, and said affectionately.

The men in the room looked at them with jealousy in their eyes.

These two actresses were both fond of Bai Han, so they all wished they had been Bad Han.

However, after hearing Gu Shishi’s words, these people were a little shocked.

Did Bai Han know Sir. Gu?

If that was the case, Bai Han was definitely not just a nobody!

The Gu family was a distinguished family, and Bai Han could make the rock of this family, Sir. Gu, take him seriously.

Although the Gu family wasn’t at the top of society, Sir. Gu had made his family climb up to this position by himself.

That was why those in the upper-class society respected Sir. Gu a lot.

Moreover, everyone looked at Gu Shishi with strange expressions.

Bai Han had just spent a few billion on some red emeralds, and she had just said that her family would pay for him…

“No need,” Bai Han refused.

The Gu family had already spent a lot of money on him. If he asked the Gu family to pay 3.9 billion, that would not be nice.

“Alright.” Gu Shishi looked a little disappointed.

“By the way, Shishi, “Bai Han reminded her, “I just bought some red emeralds. I’ll go to a warehouse with a sales manager to check the goods later.”

Gu Shishi smiled. “I will come with you.”

“Alright,” he said. Bai Han did not refuse her this time.

Now that Gu Shishi also needed to cultivate, these magic crystals would be useful to her in the future. It would be good for her to know more about them.

“Mr. Bai.” Shen Yi suddenly said, “the owner of Cynthia Jewelry is an old man from a French noble family, and he only speaks French. Mr. Bai, you need an interpreter.”

Bai Han was startled, for he had never thought of this matter.

He could speak English, but he knew nothing about French.

“Don’t worry, Mr. Bai. There will be an interpreter there,” the sales manager quickly said.

Bai Han did not agree.

If the interpreter worked for Cynthia Jewelry, Bai Han wouldn’t know if they tricked him. Shen Yi knew Bai Han’s concern and smiled even brighter. “I lived in France for two years before, and I can speak a bit of French. I can be your interpreter, Mr. Bai. I also want to see these red emeralds.”

Shen Yi blinked her eyes in embarrassment, “red emeralds are really rare, not to mention this amount.”

“No need.” Gu Shishi pursed her lips and stared at Shen Yi with hostility. “I’ll ask my grandfather to find an interpreter. My family can afford this, so we don’t need your help, Shen Yi.”

“The fair is about to end, and I’m afraid we’ll have to wait for a while to find an interpreter.”

“Don’t worry, I will…” Gu Shishi said coldly. “Shishi,” Bai Han interrupted Gu Shishi. “Ms. Shen, I am sorry. Maybe I will need you to come with me,” Bai Han immediately agreed.

Shen Yi raised her eyebrow and looked at Gu Shishi, looking provoking.

Shen Yi then turned to Bai Han and smiled brightly. “Mr. Bai, don’t worry. It’s my pleasure. Thank you for giving me the opportunity to see so many red emeralds.”

Gu Shishi’s face was slightly pale as she pursed her lips.

“Shishi.” Bai Han tugged at Gu Shishi’s arm gently and whispered into her ear, “I have something to tell her.”

Bai Han’s warm breath came to Gu Shishi’s ear as he spoke.

Gu Shishi’s ears turned red almost instantly, and she forgot her anger right away.

“Oh.”

About ten minutes later, the fair ended. Bai Han, Gu Shishi, and Shen Yi followed the sales manager into a car.

“After being polished, these red emeralds are placed in my boss’ castle.”

A castle?

Bai Han knitted his eyebrows.

It seemed like the owner of Cynthia Jewelry was not an ordinary noble.

The car drove all the way and finally stopped in front of a beautiful castle in the suburbs. The castle was a typical French castle with some traces of time, but it should have been maintained often. It didn’t look old but had a charm. “Mr. Bai.”

The owner of Cynthia Jewelry was a tall and thin old French noble. “Lin just told me that you bought all of my red emeralds,” When he saw Bai Han, he greeted him warmly. As soon as the owner appeared and spoke, Shen Yi moved next o Bai Han and interpreted everything in Chinese.

“Thank you.” Bai Han nodded.

“Please follow me,” the owner said with a friendly tone.

He immediately opened a bottle of red wine and served Bai Han.

After some small talk, Bai Han held the wine glass and cut to the point, “Sir, may I check the red emeralds first? I am afraid I can’t stay in France for long.”

After Shen Yi interpreted his sentence, the owner patted his head in frustration. “Oh! I am sorry! Please follow me, Mr. Bai.” Bai Han put down his wine glass and followed the owner through a few corridors before entering a room.

As soon as he walked in, Bai Han was stunned.

There were a few shelves in the room, and all of them were filled with emeralds. Moreover, they were not ordinary emeralds.

The most average emeralds here were even the top-level ice-type emeralds, and all of them cost a fortune.

The ice-type emeralds that could be placed here were all rare in color.

Most of them were glass-type emeralds, which were bright in color.

The owner brought Bai Han to the last shelf.

This shelf was full of red emeralds, which were similar to the one displayed at the fair.

Bai Han’s eyes lit up, and his breathing became rapid.

They were all high-grade mana crystals!

There were fifty-four high-grade magical crystals!

There were less than fifty high-level magic crystals in Glacier Academy.

Not only did high-grade mana crystals contain more magic power, but they were also purer.

Nothing contained purer magic power than high-grade magical crystal.

The purer the magic power, the more helpful it was for a mage’s advancement, especially when it was a major leap in rank.

With the magic power of high-grade magical crystals, he would be able to level up twice as fast!

These high-grade magic crystals came to him at the right time!

Bai Han was now an advanced mage. After cultivating, he was only one bottleneck away from becoming an elementary grand mage.
