In the Fog Forest, there were also Fire Lizards in other areas, but they were far away.

Even if they rushed over now, there was no time.

Fire crystals could also be collected from caves, but it required luck.

Collecting fire crystals now was like looking for a needle in a haystack.

With this delay, the EXP buff time would have long passed.

Even if he handed in the mission, he would not be able to enjoy four times the experience.

“By the way, isn’t there a trading area? Post a request for purchase. Maybe someone happens to have a fire crystal.”

Han Qinxue suddenly reminded him.

“Well, I’ll try!”

Zhou Han nodded and felt that it was feasible.

He clicked on the [Trading Area] and posted a post asking to buy fire crystals.

He waited, but nothing happened.

Zhou Han opened the [Chat Area] again. He typed a sentence and clicked send.

“Those with fire crystals can talk to me privately. The price is negotiable.”

After sending it out, Zhou Han regretted it immediately.

He was still too anxious!

If he put it that way, wouldn’t he get ripped off?

However, on second thought, it was worth it to pay more resources for a mission with four times the experience.

Seeing Zhou Han’s message, the chat area instantly became lively.

“Wow! Big Boss Zhou Han, I want to have children with you!”

“Get lost. Zhou Han is mine!”

“You’re all daydreaming. What are fire crystals?”

“I’ve never heard of any of them! The big shot is playing a different game. This thing is obviously not simple.”

“What a pity. I don’t have any fire crystals and missed the opportunity to interact with the big shot!”

“Yes. I’m going to look for it now. I don’t know if I’ll make it in time.”

…

Zhou Han looked at it for a while and was a little disappointed.

It was all nonsense. No one had ever seen anything like it.

“Yes? There’s a private message?”

Just as Zhou Han was about to give up and leave the interface to think of another way…

A private message appeared on the panel.

Zhou Han took a closer look. The other party’s name was Mei Aoxue. She should be a woman.

“It’s not harassment, right?”

After all, many women had harassed Zhou Han before and were blocked by him.

With a slight hesitation, he opened the dialog box.

“I have a fire crystal. Picture attached.”

After Zhou Han opened it, this sentence appeared in the dialog box.

He clicked on the picture and the description was displayed.

[Fire Crystal]: Contains a rich amount of fire elements. It has a wide range of uses and can increase the proficiency of fire skills.

After reading it, Zhou Han was delighted. It was indeed a fire crystal.

He immediately replied, “I need two fire crystals. I wonder if you have enough!”

In a cave, a beautiful figure killed all the Red Jade Scorpions in front of her.

She wore a long dress and her long hair fell to her shoulders. She had the aura of beauty, as if she were in a painting, perfect and flawless.

However, the only flaw was that her entire body emitted a cold aura. Her beautiful face was expressionless and arrogant.

Mei Aoxue was like a plum blossom in the snow, blooming with his own brilliance.

After receiving Zhou Han’s message, she slowly opened the interface and began to talk.

“Yes, I do. Two is no problem.”

With her current strength, she could not defeat the Bronze-grade Fire Lizard at all.

However, she was lucky and happened to collect a few fire crystals along the way.

After seeing Zhou Han’s request, she took the initiative to initiate a private chat.

“What conditions are required?”

“That depends on what you’re offering. Just so we’re clear, I’m not short of gold.”

Still expressionless, Mei Aoxue continued typing.

She had already guessed that Zhou Han must have something urgent.

Otherwise, he wouldn’t have shouted on the public chat after posting in the trading area.

The other party was ranked first on the rankings. Now that he had something to ask of her, she would definitely extort him.

Seeing Mei Aoxue’s message, Zhou Han frowned. As expected, the other party was asking for more.

Her attitude was clear. She did not want gold coins.

Unless he gave something rare, she wouldn’t trade with him.

Although Zhou Han was unhappy, he endured it for the experience buff.

“What do you think of this? The Heart Protecting Lotus.”

Zhou Han only had equipment and spiritual fruits on him now.

It was definitely impossible to trade his equipment. In any case, there were still four Heart Protecting Lotuses that were useless to him.

Therefore, he directly sent the attributes of the Heart Protecting Lotus over.

“This won’t do. It only adds 100 HP. It’s too disadvantageous for me to exchange two fire crystals.”

Actually, Mei Aoxue was a little tempted, but she still had to test Zhou Han’s bottom line.

She believed that Zhou Han, who was ranked first, definitely had something better.

This was the competition of their mental fortitude.

‘Hmm? Not to your liking?’

This was a greedy woman!

She wanted to eat him alive.

According to the normal price, a Heart Protecting Lotus could be exchanged for five fire crystals.

Fire crystals had a low drop rate, but they could still be dropped by killing monsters.

As for the Heart Protecting Lotus, it was considered a spiritual fruit that could only be chanced upon by luck. It was not something that one could obtain just because one wanted to.

However, the other party did not like it now and wanted greater benefits.

Zhou Han spent 2 enhancement points and sent the enhanced Heart Protecting Lotus over.

“It’s the best thing I have. If you don’t like it, forget it.”

‘What?’

‘Increase 800 HP?’

Mei Aoxue’s beautiful eyes were filled with surprise. With the bonus of 800 HP, she would level up even faster.

As expected of the first-ranked Zhou Han, he actually had such a powerful spiritual fruit.

This was only 800. How would she feel if she knew that it could increase her HP by 1,500?

“Sure, let’s trade now!”

A smile bloomed on Mei Aoxue’s face as if the ice had melted and the sun was shining. It was a beautiful sight.

She raised her eyebrows. ‘So what if it’s the number one on the list?’

She had him dancing in her palms.

Soon, Zhou Han requested a deal and successfully completed it.

After obtaining the Heart Protecting Lotus, Mei Aoxue was filled with excitement and sent a message.

“Zhou Han, happy cooperation. Let’s work together again next time!”

[Message failed. You have been blacklisted!]

‘What?’

‘Blacklisted me?’

Mei Aoxue was in disbelief. How many men could not wait to get closer to her?

Zhou Han actually blacklisted her.

‘He certainly never saw my face.’

Mei Aoxue knew her own charms. Few men could resist it.

‘Good. We’ll meet again one day.’

‘When the time comes, hehe…’

Mei Aoxue immediately looked forward to meeting Zhou Han.

This guy, who had obtained the Fire Crystal Stone, rushed towards Lynn.

There was still half an hour of buff time left. He had to race against time.

As for why he had blacklisted Mei Aoxue, it was mainly because this woman was too cunning.

She knew that he was in urgent need of fire crystals so she extorted him like this.

He was very unhappy that she had profited from the situation.
