This time, however, Zhang Deming didn't intend to meet face-to-face. After stashing the Spirit Nurturing Bead in a designated spot, his consciousness entered the Spirit Nurturing Space.
He casually beckoned for Qu Qizhong's light dot, and a small card materialized in his hand.
West District, Upper East Street, Liuling Lane, No. 153, base of the large tree by the left courtyard wall. Pick it up quickly.
A line of text rapidly appeared on the card. Zhang Deming tossed the message over.
He then hurried away, making his way to a teahouse across the lane.
He chose a good spot and sat in the teahouse, quietly sipping his tea.
A short while later, Qu Qizhong arrived. He found the hidden Spirit Nurturing Bead at the location Zhang Deming had provided and left immediately.
As for the Spirit Stones from the sale, he had already deposited them at the Spirit Manor.
Zhang Deming sat in the teahouse drinking his tea like an uninvolved stranger, pretending not to have seen a thing.
