Li Wang was taken aback and he said, “You really plan to prepare one set of all the treasures? That’s rather unbelievable. Which Mystical Core extreme are you going to form? I’m really curious.”

Xu Yang smiled but did not say anything.

“It seems that I have said something I shouldn’t have. Haha.” Li Wang was not bothered, and he laughed. “Everyone would surely have their own secrets.”

“Little Official, you are generous and admirable.” Xu Yang took the chance to compliment him.

Li Wang was in a good mood as he was praised by Xu Yang. He said, “Well. For the Water-Extreme treasure, there’s a lot of Heavy Water in the Thousand-Treasures Pavilion. I can sell it to you. Light and Dark-Extreme treasures are very rare. There is no stock even in the Thousand-Treasures Pavilion. However, I saw a bottle of Nether Liquid at the Ge family’s booth. I can buy it for you.”

Xu Yang did not want to deal with the Ge family. He had offended the Ge family when he was selling the recipes. The Ge family might mark up the price if he were to buy the Nether Liquid from them.

Xu Yang negotiated with Li Wang and bought a small bottle of Heavy Water at the price of four thousand Wolf Coins in the end. As for the Nether Liquid, the price was based on the actual price purchased by Li Wang.

‘I have to go to Instructor Song’s place after I settle the issues here. I promised him that I’ll take care of his only daughter. I must fulfil my promises.’

2The lively Appraisal Conference event lasted for the whole day. Xu Yang had obtained everything he needed. Instead of attending the event in the afternoon, he directly returned home with the treasures such as the Nether Liquid, Feather Snake’s Shedded Skin, Green Prism, Earth Core, Heavy Water and other treasures.

He held wealth that he had never had before. The pieces of Winged-Tiger Coins with the sculpture of a golden tiger etched on them were dazzling indeed. When Xu Yang poured the coins from the money bag onto the table, Xu Yu’s eyes opened wide.

“This is a lot of money, Brother! We are rich now!” Xu Yu skipped about happily.

Xu Yang caressed her head and said, “I still have something to do. You should stay at home.”

“Okay!” Xu Yu nodded several times. She was already racking her brain, thinking about how she was going to spend the money. New financial ideas sprouted in her little brain one by one.

Xu Yang walked out of the gate and went to Instructor Song’s place.

‘Instructor Song’s family should know by now that the Vast-Gate Dojo’s ascetic team had been completely massacred. I don’t know what the Vast-Gate Dojo did to console their family members…’ Xu Yang reached Hundred-Depot Street that Instructor Song lived at.

1It was evening time, smoke could be seen rising from all the houses there as it was almost dinner time. However, the small wooden door in front of Xu Yang was ajar and there was no trace of smoke coming out of the chimney.

‘That’s weird. Isn’t his daughter here?’ Xu Yang walked closer to the door. He suddenly heard a weeping sound, and when he was going to knock on the door, a voice dripping with sarcasm sounded, “Why are you crying? Crying won’t do you any good. You have to pay for your father’s debts as your useless father is dead.”

Xu Yang frowned and went into the house.

The yard was small and there was a girl crying on the floor. There were three men standing beside the girl, and a fat man was standing in front of them.

The fat man did not know that someone had entered the house. He continued on saying, “Look at her face. She looks pretty good. We can gain some money by selling her to the Hundred-Flowers Brothel.”

The Hundred-Flowers Brothel was the largest brothel in Lin Yuan City. There were always a lot of members from huge families who spend their night there.

“Who’s there?” The three men realized that Xu Yang was there, and one of them asked.

“That should be my question to you.” Xu Yang looked calm but he was actually furious. “Who are you people?”

The fat man turned around and walked toward Xu Yang. He glared at him and said, “Us? Pfft! I’m the manager of the Vast-Gate Dojo, Qi Shiliang. Are you scared now?”

Xu Yang frowned looking at the fat man in luxurious attire which did not match his temperament. He said coldly, “The Vast-Gate Dojo’s manager. I remember that this is Instructor Song Ren’s place. How dare you come and try to sell his daughter right after his death?”

“This is the affair of the Vast-Gate Dojo. You shouldn’t be involved!” Qi Shiliang glanced at Xu Yang. He felt a sense of danger coming from this thin teenager. He was not willing to create more problems, so he looked at the three men and said, “Grab hold of her!”

The three men nodded as a yes sounded. However, Xu Yang rushed in front of the little girl and stopped them. He said, “Who gave you the right to forcefully remove her from her house?”

“Hey. How dare you poke your nose into this? It is none of your business.” Qi Shiliang said with an annoyed face. “Okay, I’ll tell you. This little girl’s father, Song Ren, has led the whole ascetic team to their deaths! We have to compensate one thousand four hundred Wolf Coins to the victims’ family members. The daughter should pay his father’s debt. If we don’t go for the girl, where should we get the money from?”

Xu Yang finally understood what the issue was. He was extremely furious.

“Great. It seems that it is the Vast-Gate Dojo’s rule.” Xu Yang was not bothered to argue with those people. “I will protect Instructor Song’s daughter no matter what today.”

The little girl behind him had stopped crying. She opened her swollen eyes and stared at the thin figure in front of her.

“Bastard. You’re looking for death!” Qi Shiliang’s forehead was sweating. He waved his hand and said, “Beat him! Beat him up badly!”

The three men answered and started to attack. Their cultivations were at the Advanced Mystical Learner stage. As for Qi Shiliang, he was only a Primary Mystical Warrior with a weak foundation which made it hard for him to advance any higher. Xu Yang was confident that he would be able to fight with them.

He would never give up even if Qi Shiliang and others were so powerful that Xu Yang would not be able to fight against them. He would merely change his strategy, like reaching a trade agreement with Li Wang or Li Yurong. He was willing to sacrifice something as he could not bear to watch Instructor Song’s daughter being sold to such a place.

It was not in relation to whether he was kind or not, but the fact that Xu Yang wanted to keep his promises.

1The three men groaned at the same time and punched Xu Yang, as crackling sounds came out from their bones when they launched their fists. It was not bad for them to be able to punch with a strength of about twenty juns.

However, it was too weak in the eyes of Xu Yang.

A rock grey layer appeared on Xu Yang’s right hand. He swayed his arm and hit the three men in a single heavy punch.

Clack! Clack! Clack!

There were screams one after another. The three men howled in pain as they held onto their deformed wrists.

Xu Yang’s physical strength had reached more than fifty juns. After launching Rock Body, his body became as hard as a large bluestone. The three men were knocked down by a single attack.

“You… who the hell are you? How can you have this kind of strength to defeat the three Mystical Learners in an instant at such a young age. Are you already a Mystical Warrior?” Qi Shiliang stared at Xu Yang with his eyes wide open.

Xu Yang shook his head slowly. “Aren’t you leaving?”

Qi Shiliang suddenly realized something when he was about to leave. He turned around and said fiercely, “I know you are not a Mystical Warrior. You only have strong physical strength!” He realized that there was no mist of Mystical Power around Xu Yang’s body.

“It’s enough to fight with you.” Xu Yang said peacefully. “Since you refuse to leave on your own two feet, I’ll help you out.”

“Pfft! Stop bullsh*tting. I, Qi Shiliang, am a real Mystical Warrior! There is a huge difference between a Mystical Learner and a Mystical Warrior. You’re going to die today!”

“Phantom-Hundred Attack!”

Qi Shiliang could not wait to launch one of the strongest Mystical Techniques he had mastered. He was a Wind-Extreme Mystical Warrior. The Mystical Technique could punch hundreds of times instantly. Although the strength of each punch was weaker, the overall power was not that bad.

Xu Yang sneered and launched Rock Body. He stood still as if he was a huge bluestone.

Although Qi Shiliang was a Mystical Warrior, his physical strength was only thirty or forty juns. The Phantom-Hundred Attack seemed terrifying but the strength was much too weak.

“Haha. You’re still pretending to be tough. Your bones should be broken and your organs fractured by now.” Qi Shiliang was breathing heavily as he retracted his extended fist.

Xu Yang moved his head around and a clicking sound came out. He dusted the dirt on his body and said, “You’re done attacking?”

“You!” Qi Shiliang was horrified and he stepped backward.

“You hit me one hundred and thirty-two times just now. I’ll only return those punches with one single punch. Doesn’t that sound great?” Xu Yang’s voice was chilling as he walked toward Qi Shiliang.

Boom!

A blast was created by Xu Yang’s fist as a grey layer appeared on his fist.

The punch knocked the fat Qi Shiliang into the air. Xu Yang could hear the sound of his chest bone cracking. Qi Shiliang coughed up a mouthful of blood and he fainted in mid-air.

“Who, who are you?” A timid voice sounded behind him.

Xu Yang got rid of the cold expression on his face and looked at the little girl. She was Song Ren’s daughter. “My name is Xu Yang. What about you?”

“I… I’m Song Tinglan.” The little girl stood up timidly. “You are not a bad person, are you?”

Xu Yang smiled, “Me? I think I’m not a bad person. Come with me. I promised your father that I’ll take care of you before he died. I’m here to fulfill my promise.”

Song Tinglan could not control herself upon hearing about her dead father, and two big drops of tears rolled down her face.

“Now, now, stop crying.” Xu Yang was somehow in a panic seeing the little girl cry. “I’ll bring you to my house. You will meet an elder sister there. You will definitely get along with her.”

“You will not sell me, will you?” Song Tinglan stopped crying and stared at Xu Yang.

“I will definitely not sell you.” Xu Yang promised her.

Xu Yang held onto Song TInglan’s dirty little hand and wanted to leave. However, the little girl pulled his hand hard and said, “Wait a minute…”

Looking at the puzzled Xu Yang, Song Tinglan said quickly, “My father told me that we have an heirloom hidden on the beam. You are a good person. I’m going to give the heirloom to you.”

Xu Yang finally realized that he had forgotten about the reward that Song Ren had mentioned before.
