Xue Yao looked in the direction of Xiao Lin'er's finger, and was surprised by what she saw.

"Cloud, sea, strange, fate?"

"It's actually a strange fate in the sea of clouds?"

Everyone was stunned by this scene.

Yunhai Qiyuan is a large shopping place, which has been upgraded to become an information center.

It was designed by Xueyao alone and created with her companions.

They came to the heaven and started to create Yunhai Qiyuan from the south. Later, they built Yunhai Qiyuan in the most prosperous central areas of the west, north and east respectively.

Xueyao's heart skipped a beat; she knew the meaning behind these four words. Yunhai Qiyuan was more than just a name; it carried the dreams and pursuits shared by her and her companions, the fruit of their collective labor.

She wanted to open a Yunhai Qiyuan in the center of the heaven, and not only that, she wanted to open one each to the east, south, west, and north of the center of the heaven.

Unexpectedly, I saw its traces as soon as I arrived here.

"How is this possible?" Xue Yao muttered to herself, her heart filled with confusion and curiosity. She turned to look at her companions, each of whom had a look of surprise and confusion on their faces.

"Let's go and take a look." Xue Yao said decisively. She knew there must be an unknown secret hidden behind this.

The group walked quickly in the direction Xiao Lin'er pointed. As the distance got closer, they found that the appearance and layout were really on the scale of Yunhai Qiyuan.

However, what is fake cannot be real. There are still subtle differences in similar styles.

On the signboard, the four characters "Yunhai Qiyuan" were written in golden font, but the font was similar in form but not in spirit. Xueyao and her group looked at each other in bewilderment. They had never expected that someone could imitate Yunhai Qiyuan.

"Who is this? How bold! He actually dares to imitate our Yunhai Qiyuan." Xiao Lin'er muttered in dissatisfaction.

Xueyao fell into deep thought, knowing there might be a deeper reason behind this, so she decided to go into the store to find out.

The interior of the store is decorated very delicately. Although it imitates the style of Yunhai Qiyuan, it also has its own unique design.

Xueyao noticed that although the items sold in the store were similar to those of Yunhai Qiyu, their quality and craftsmanship were obviously inferior.

"Everyone, welcome to Yunhai Qiyuan!" A middle-aged man came forward enthusiastically.

Xue Yao responded politely, then asked directly, "Excuse me, why is your shop named 'Cloud Sea Romance'?"

The man was slightly stunned, as if he didn't expect Xue Yao to ask this.

He was silent for a moment, then slowly began, "To be honest, I'm from the south and used to be a craftsman at Yunhai Qiyuan. I left for some reason, but I've always had a deep respect for Yunhai Qiyuan's craftsmanship and philosophy. So, I opened this shop, hoping to carry on the spirit of Yunhai Qiyuan."

Inherit the spirit of Yunhai Qiyuan?

Listen, listen...

What they said is so good.

Xue Yao felt mixed emotions after hearing this. "You're imitating like this, aren't you afraid that the real boss will come looking for you?"

"Fairy, you're joking. What do you mean by imitation? We are a branch of Yunhai Qiyuan. The main store is in the south, a million miles away from here."

"Branch?"

"correct."

"Authorized by the head office?"

"of course."

The middle-aged man's confident look made Xueyao's companions twitch their lips. Humph, this skill of lying with open eyes is really amazing.

However, they would not act rashly before Xueyao had an attack.

"Do you know the owner of Yunhai Qiyu?" Xue Yao asked calmly after a moment.

"Of course." The middle-aged man continued to court death.

Xueyao nodded. "What treasures do you have? Can you introduce them to me?"

In fact, after Xiao Lin'er discovered it and watched from afar, Xue Yao released her spiritual sense and took a clear look inside and out.

Most of the items sold there are fake, but they are better than those sold at street stalls or ordinary shops.

Otherwise, she wouldn't have asked the middle-aged man who came to greet her as soon as she entered the door.

Seeing that Xueyao seemed interested in the store's merchandise, the man began to introduce them enthusiastically.

He took out one exquisite piece of handicraft after another from the counter and said, "Please look, everyone, each one here reveals ingenious design and exquisite craftsmanship."

Why would Xueyao need to observe carefully? However, although these products are imitating the style of Yunhai Qiyuan, there are also some innovations and unique features.

"Did you design these handicrafts yourself?" Xue Yao asked with a smile.

The middle-aged man nodded, a hint of pride in his eyes. "Yes, although I have left Yunhai Qiyuan, I have always been committed to passing on the spirit and craftsmanship there. I hope that through my efforts, more people will understand and appreciate the beauty of Yunhai Qiyuan."

"Really? Isn't it to gain more profits?" Xue Yao asked casually while showing great interest in these products.

A strange look flashed across the middle-aged man's eyes, but he quickly returned to normal.

However, it did not escape Xueyao's eyes.

"What if the real owner of Yunhai Qiyuan comes? How are you going to explain it?" Browsing through the various items, Xue Yao continued to ask, with a serious tone that left no room for doubt.

She knew that imitating the name of Yunhai Qiyuan would not only infringe on their rights, but might also affect Yunhai Qiyuan's reputation.

The middle-aged man seemed to feel a little nervous. He stammered, "I... I will of course explain. Everything I did was out of respect for Yunhai Qiyuan, and I had absolutely no ill intentions."

Xue Yao smiled slightly. She knew the other party's answer was not entirely sincere, but she did not press the issue. She turned to her companions and said, "Let's take a look around and get to know the goods here."

No one had any objection.

After reaching the fifth floor, Xue Yao said to the middle-aged man, "If you have any fine magical instruments, please take them out and let me see them."

Hearing this, a hint of pride appeared on the man's face. He turned around and took out an item from the back of the store and placed it carefully on the counter.

It was an ancient long sword, with a faint cold light shining from the blade and several crystal clear gems inlaid on the hilt.

"This sword is called 'Cold Light' and is our shop's most valuable treasure," the man said. "It's not only incredibly sharp, but also imbued with powerful magical powers. It's a treasure that practitioners dream of."

Xue Yao carefully observed the sword. She could sense the spiritual power within it, but she also detected an unusual aura. She wondered to herself if this sword was as simple as the man had claimed.

"I'm actually quite interested in this sword." Xue Yao said calmly. She wanted to further test the man's reaction.

The man's eyes flashed with surprise when he heard this. He thought Xue Yao was really interested in the sword. He quickly said, "If the fairy is interested, our store can give you a special discount."

Xue Yao smiled faintly. She knew the man had something to hide, but she wasn't in a hurry to expose him. She turned around and winked at her companions, signaling them to remain vigilant.

"Okay, then I'll buy this sword." Xue Yao said casually, taking out a bag of fairy coins from her arms and placing it on the counter.

Seeing this, the man's smile widened. He reached out to take the immortal coin, but as he touched it, he suddenly felt a powerful surge of spiritual energy. Startled, he quickly withdrew his hand, a look of uncertainty on his face.
