Hearing Xu Qing's words, Han Yu felt a pang of disappointment.
"I see… but isn't that boring?" Han Yu asked, suddenly doubting his grand dream of becoming a wealthy cultivator. 'What's the point of wealth if I can't enjoy food?'
"There's spirit food, but that's not cheap," Xu Qing added nonchalantly.
"Oh yeah! Spirit beast meat and spirit herbs!" Han Yu's excitement returned in full force. 'Alright, there's still hope for a life of gourmet luxury!'
GRUMBLE.
His stomach, however, reminded him that his grand aspirations meant nothing in the face of immediate hunger.
"…I'll be back in a while," Han Yu sighed, rising to his feet. Food first, dreams later.
Just as he was about to step out, Xu Qing spoke.
"Don't go too far. I don't want to have to come find you if you get into trouble," she warned.
"Okay," Han Yu replied, stretching. "I'm too tired to wander far anyway."
