"Hong Yue, let's explore deeper into the forest!" Long Feng take his step as he talks.
"Future Husband, how are you doing with the mission? Please be very careful along with your way." Nan Jing Jing's voice appeared on the Voice Transferring Ring.
"Oh, it's Jing Jing's message." Long Feng smiles as he heard the sweet and soothing voice from the ring.
"Jing Jing, I am doing very well here. I just managed to hunt and kill an Adept Tier beast. Do not worry, I am not injured or anything." Long Feng quickly replied.
Unknown to himself, Long Feng actually felt happy just by hearing Nan Jing Jing's voice from the ring. It sort of giving him a reason to return from the forest, and not being recklessly head deeper and deeper without thoughts.
Thinking about his recklessness, Long Feng finally decided to stop enter deeper into the forest.
"Hong Yue, let us hunt and look for some ingredient here, and return to the camp." Long Feng looked at Hong Yue and talks to the pet through his mind.
The both of them then slay a few beast within that few hour, before they return to the camp.

Within the City, two youngsters are standing in an alleyway behind a manor, seems to be waiting for a person.
"How long should we wait?" asked one of them. This man soon revealed himself from the shade, and known as Liu Tsung, the one Long Feng met before within the Myriad Ingredient Pavilion.
"He say within five minutes, let's wait until the time is up." another person speaks as he reveals himself as well. Known as Tang Jiu, also one of the helpers Long Feng met before in the Myriad Ingredient Pavilion.
"Quiet! Don't you both remember that we are not supposed to talk too much?" a voice could be heard. And from the appearance, this person is a male, but his voice is masked by the mouthpiece he is wearing.
"Don't you dare to lecture me, Liu Ming." Tang Jiu replied as he reveals the other's identity. This person happened to be Liu Ming, the one who teach Long Feng on the refining technique and also handling the Thunder Spirit Pill with the others.
"So, what is the order from the Clan?" Liu Tsung impatience started to get worst, as his tone is getting more and more irritated.
"Silent, Brother! Your Impatience is the thing that always makes us need to change our plan again and again." Liu Ming scolded Liu Tsung, as he quickly shut up after being scolded.
"The Clan request the three of us to place this poison into the water source of the city." Liu Ming takes out a bottle of liquid from his pouch and lets the other two to have a look.
"Seems like the Clan finally can't wait anymore. I wonder how much could we harvest this time, from this city?" Tang Jiu commented.
"Young Master Tang, although your position between the three of us is slightly different, I hope you could follow my arrangement." Liu Ming speaks politely with Tang Jiu.
"Sure, Sure. I am here to take a look at how you guys do your things anyway." Tang Jiu replied.
Soon, the three of them disperse and return to their own pre-arranged lifestyle.
Tang Jiu is placed in a cover, enjoying the life of a wealthy young master that recently moved into the city.

Liu Ming had been sent into the Bronze Pill Hall one year ago and managed to get into the Outer Division.
While for Liu Tsung, he is arranged to be a rogue cultivator, who keep on looking for trouble but hardly met a match.
This way, the three of them slowly plans to obtain the main source of the City's production. From their water source to the path, they used to deliver the edible and usable goods. The location where the main army of the city is kept and trained, the supports given by the three Halls towards the City Lord, and also the Lord' capability and strength.
The three of them belonged to a secretive but strong clan, named as Tang Clan.
The current master of the Clan is actually one of their younger generation, named as Tang Shiwu (fifteen in Chinese).
Tang Shiwu possess a very noble dream, as well very great wishes. One could say its pure greed, but some would say it a human nature.
He created a special kind of weapon, and this weapon is known to need a human as the medium to breed the weapon.
This is also why Tang Shiwu is targeting the Clear Jade City, because of the number of populations.
Tang Shiwu planned to capture at least five cities before he tried to overtake the royal army. And with the help of the other fourteen trusted Tang's family member, his aim, is soon to be realized, if nobody willing to go between his ways.
"Master Tang Yi says that by exposing this bottle of Primordial Lust Bugs larvae into the water, the population will be infected quickly to become the host. And soon after the Infected people reach the maturity to allows the Bugs to hatch from the inner of their body, we will be collecting the matured bugs to be refined into high explosive and deadly weapon."
"I guess that is why this weapon is called as the Primordial Beast Howl." Liu Ming poured the content of the bottle into the water along the waterfall not far from the city, and start the plan of Tang Shiwu.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Master, Xiao Feng has returned." Long Feng greets his master first as he enters the camp.
"Xiao Feng, good thing you are fine. How is the hunting mission goes?" Elder Tang Wen paid some attention to his beloved disciple.
"Everything goes well for now. Xiao Feng just managed to kill an Adept Tier Beast." Long Feng explain what happened to his master, and allows him to have a look on the Adept Tier Soul Pearl dropped by the Adept Tier Beast.
"It is good you are not injured. Xiao Feng, exchange the points and return to the Bronze Pill Hall. This mission is considered finish. By tomorrow morning, we will deliver the scouts into the forest to collect all the remaining disciples within." Elder Tang Wen explained, and return to handle his own important matters.
"Master, Xiao Feng will return to the Hall immediately. Please come back earlier as well, Disciple will wait for you in the Virtue Hall while attending all the plants." Long Feng bowed to his master, and excuse himself from the camp.
"Xiao Feng, Xiao Feng..."
"Master wonder how long will we still have to spend as master and disciple." Elder Tang Wen sighed and stressed within himself.
Long Feng has no other choices but to return, since his master had ordered.

He then moves to the rewards counter and talked to the senior once again.
"Senior, can this junior exchange his points?" Long Feng speaks to the man behind the counter.
"Oh, It is you again, hand me the Participating Tablet then." the senior extend his hand and accept the piece of tablet.
"Hmm... Not bad, only a few more days, and yet you again managed to obtain a total of 160 points. Here, take this 1600 Spirit Bronze Coin as your rewards."
"Too bad the other two halls decided to follow their own way, if not, based on your results, you could try to obtain a few treasures from them."
"Remember to quickly look for a better treasure pouch for yourself. This senior can see you have yet to consider about your body wearing equipment." the senior being nice, and explain a few preparations Long Feng should prepare for himself.
"This senior, Long Feng is grateful for a few advice. Junior will properly consider senior's words and quickly prepare himself with few important treasures." Long Feng replied. As he already gotten his money, Long Feng excuse himself and leave the Mission Camp and return to the hall as soon as he could.
"This junior manage to obtain a good result in this mission. If my guesses are not wrong, he will be unable to control his anticipation to explore further. If he really did go out without preparing himself like I advised, he will not be able to live too long." the senior looked at the direction Long Feng left, and hope the youngster will listen to his words.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The next morning, Long Feng wakes up from his rest and went over to Nan Jing Jing's room.
"Jing Jing, are you still inside the room?" Long Feng knocked the door twice.
Nan Jing Jing opened the door after a while and smiles as she looked at Long Feng appearing outside of her room.
"Beloved Husband, what brings you here to outside my room today?" Nan Jing Jing asked.
"Jing Jing, can I get back the Blood Cleansing Pitcher Plant and the Atlas Worm?" Long Feng politely asked.
"Of course, my husband." Nan Jing Jing walked into the room with the door opened, and Long Feng looked at how soft and gentle is Nan Jing Jing while she is walking over to the coffee table to take the Pot of Pitcher Plant with Atlas Worm.
Long Feng continue looking at the inner part of his wife's room.
The window is opened, with two beautiful pieces of Silk Curtains. The table and on top of her bed also have a piece of beautiful red silk on top, while a set of Jade made Tea set is nicely arranged on the table.
Long Feng looked at the side of her bed and found out that there is a pet basket.
"Jing Jing, do you have a pet in your room?" Long Feng asked.
"Oh, husband did you noticed?" Nan Jing Jing smiles as she replies.
"Let me call her back." Nan Jing Jing took out a bell and ring it twice.
Looking at the sky for a few minutes, a flying beast appeared in their sight.
As the Beast landed on the balcony, it walks close to Nan Jing Jing and starts to rub its head on its owner's leg.
"Beloved Husband, this is your wife's pet, her name is Xiao Cai." Nan Jing Jing held the pet in her arms.
The pet is a flying Dragon Lord Beast, strong is Metal and Water type.
"A young Metal Snow Dragon Lord." Long Feng is slightly shocked in his mind. In his expression and the books he read before, a Dragon Lord is only heard in legend, and rarely seen by anyone. Not even the Lord of the City possess a Dragon Beast as its Slave Pet.
"Husband, what do you think about my young Whelps?" Nan Jing Jing asked.
"It is amazing. I heard that Dragons is rare in the world we are living, and yet you have a Dragon pet within your room. I am slightly shocked, to be honest." Long Feng answered.
"It is all thanks to my father." Nan Jing Jing replied.
The two of them continue to catch up with some matters, regarding the mission Long Feng attended, the Bronze Pill Halls updated news, and also some other gossips regarding the city.
And from Nan Jing Jing's mouth, Long Feng get to know the news regarding an upcoming auction for precious treasures that will be held within the Thunderburst Jade City's most well-known auction house, the Houses of Miraculous Jade.
"So, from what you say, the House of Miraculous Jade is going to open their auction for this year at the end of next month?" Long Feng asked.
"Yes, husband. Your wife is planning to bid for one of the treasures rumored to be available in the auction, so I will be attending it for sure!" Nan Jing Jing answers.
"So, is there any requirement at the entrance?" Long Feng checked for the preparations. After all, he is still a poor lad that barely have money at all.
"Of course there will be an entrance fee!"
"But it's not too expensive. Just 2000 Spirit Bronze Coins." Nan Jing Jing revealed the price of a single entrance ticket.
As he heard the cost of a single ticket, Long Feng immediately understand the differences between him and a normal cultivator.
"So the piece of treasure you says you wanted to bid... What is its opening bid amount?" Long Feng continued asking.
"Oh, it's just roughly 10 000 Spirit Bronze Coins. But I hope I can buy it within 30 000 Spirit Bronze Coins." Nan Jing Jing continued to spout out an enormous amount of money required.
Long Feng getting more and more disappointed, as he heard about the cost of a single treasure within the Auction House.
"Husband, why not you concoct some pills to sell? If you managed to make your name well known around the town, it would help in auctioning your own products within the auction as well." Nan Jing Jing let Long Feng knows about the opportunity, as he is a Pill Master at the first place.
"Are you sure about this?" Long Feng still lack confidence in his own pill refining abilities.
"Husband, don't forget that you still have the Sky Elemental compatibility within you. This way, your refined pills will have a better purity compared to others. As long you can maintain your quality of the pills, I'm sure you could do it." Nan Jing Jing motivates him.
