His sharp tone immediately irritated Jared.

“Why does it matter how I got it? Just tell me, can it be exchanged for celestial coins or not?” Jared asked coldly.

Jared’s brows furrowed in suspicion, and in an instant, reached out to seize the store owner.

The abrupt activation of the arcane array was a clear sign that trouble was brewing. Yet, in an instant, the store owner’s figure vanished, only to reappear behind Jared and his companions.

Flaxseed and Reidan reacted instinctively, both whirling around to strike at the store owner without hesitation.
