Reborn As A Dragon Girl With A System

Chapter 770: Incident Part 1

When Lord Yong heard Angelica’s warning, he realized why she was punishing the two brutes. A show of strength to make everyone in the sect understand that her family was not to be touched. This show of strength was definitely enough to keep those who like to play tricks at bay. Lord Yong also knew it would be best to let the sect master know everything Lord Yong said was true.

“Angelica, how long will you be here for? Do you want to come and see if there is anything you need in the treasure pavilion? Mama will buy it for you.” Kana asked as she pulled Angelica over to everyone else. 

Angelica, of course, would not reject her Mama’s request to go shopping and quickly nodded her head. “I do not know if I will need anything, but I will go in with you all.” 

“Great!” Kana was happy, her tail wagging back and forth. Since Angelica said she would go, Kana turned to Lord Yong and gave him her thanks. “Thank you again for your help.  I will head in now and see if I can find the things I need.” 

“Take care. If you need anything, just use those talismans. Either myself, Elder Ning, or the sect master will come to your aid.” Lord Yong made sure his words were loud and clear for all the onlookers.  He did not want another incident like this to happen again. 

Kana gave her thanks once more before walking into the Treasure Pavilion with her family in tow. The large doors at the entrance slowly opened up without her needing to even touch them. The inside was adorned with large red pillars with engraved dragons wrapping around them. There were bookshelf type cases that had small barrier arrays securing all the items on their shelves lined up against the walls and a few waist high display cases in the center of the room. Off to the far back wall was a counter that had an old woman standing behind it. The old woman’s eyes locked on to Kana and her family as soon as they entered. 

A middle aged man walked over from the side and bowed toward Kana. “What can I help you find?”

“Umm, I need the items to make a low level spiritual qi gathering array and some cultivation techniques that my family here can use.” Kana answered, not knowing that the others in the treasure pavilion were all looking at her strangely. 

This was mainly because of the things that happened outside and also because she was being treated like a VIP. Normally when a disciple entered the treasure pavilion, they had to search for everything themselves. There was a catalog they could use to find the item they wanted and to get one of the helpers to open the barrier to retrieve the item. For special items, they would need to ask the old lady behind the counter. But here, Kana was getting someone to lead her around to all the items she would need. He was even explaining everything to Kana to the smallest detail. 

“This should do it for your array, as for the cultivation methods….” The middle aged man looked up at the old lady, who gave him a slight nod. The man clapped his hands together and said: “We should head to the third floor. You may find what you need there.”

*Clatter*

The sound of something dropping and breaking could be heard. Everyone turned to see a young male disciple with his hands out in front of him, looking down at his feet where a porcelain bootle was now lying shattered in many pieces, the pills that were inside were now rolling around on the floor. Not even a second later, a hand made of spiritual qi shot out and wrapped around the young man and yanked him towards the old lady. The young man was frightened. He had not meant to break the item! And what was worse was that he should not have been able to even open the barrier to the item in the first place. 

“How did you open the barrier?”  The old lady’s cold voice asked as she stared at the young man.

“I…” The young man began to sweat as he slowly pulled out a talisman and handed it over. He did not dare go against the old lady of the treasure pavilion. It was said she was even stronger than the sect master himself.

“Who gave you this?” The old lady looked at the talisman and frowned. She had never seen this kind of talisman before. If it was strong enough to break the barriers in the treasure pavilion, it would not be good. Especially since it did not cause the master array that controls them to react.

“I…. I am not su…. Ahhh!” It was not known when Angelica suddenly appeared next to the young man and ripped his soul out of his body, causing the young man to scream out in pain.

The old woman was about to say something but stopped when she saw the young man’s soul’s eyes light up and project an image on the counter. 

“This?” The old lady frowned, seeing the person in the image. 

“Is this enough?” Angelica asked.

“Yes, thank you.” The old lady gave Angelica a smile and nodded her head. She knew Angelica was very powerful, which is why she showed Angelica the respect she deserved. 

“Then I will return his soul.” Angelica waved her hand, and the soul that was in it was casually thrown back into the young man’s body, causing him to yell out in pain once more.

“I thank you for your help. Because of you, I have stumbled upon a very serious matter.” The old lady gave her thanks once more. She then pulled out a white piece of paper that was used to send messages and spoke into it before sending it off. The matter that she just saw could very well shake the foundation of Moon Crest Academy. 

But who would have thought as the small crane was about to fly out of the treasure pavilion’s doors, someone would walk in and grab it out of the air and crush it. “Old woman, you best not stick your nose in where it does not belong.”
