Di Yuan spoke with a smile as servants on either side drove his carriage. When he stepped out, he was holding two small, transparent glass tanks. Inside, one long and one flat shadow—one gold, one cyan—swirled about.

"I've traveled a long way and was in a bit of a rush, so I haven't brought anything too extravagant. The New Year is the day after tomorrow, and my family has many traditions. I expect I'll have to set off for Jiangyin Prefecture by merchant ship very soon."
"I felt an instant connection with Brother Ji, so I made a point to bring two Centennial Spirit Fish. They're a specialty of the East Canghai and are almost never seen here in Anning County."
"One Red Gold Scale and one Cyan Wood Ray. Both are greatly beneficial for the Skin Refining stage. Brother Ji is a youthful genius, having broken the Great Limit of Mercury Blood Silver Marrow, and is now just a step away from Skin Refining."
