Chapter Sixty-Two: Not Asking

Han Jie ignored her remark and merely instructed with indifference: "We are running low on flame-leaf five-spirit脂. Go to the forest behind the apothecary, gather a thousand catties of it, and deliver it to the storeroom."

With that, he turned and left.

Xu Ning'an wanted to catch up, but she was too slow, so she had no choice but to head to the apothecary herself and ask a disciple what flame-leaf five-spirit脂 was and what it looked like.

"Senior Brother Han asked An'an to help out, you see," she emphasized particularly, flashing a sweet smile.

Previously, Xu Ning'an...

Lately, the number of powerful figures in the Fire God Palace had been steadily growing—some originally belonging to the Nine Domains, others hailing from the Fire Origin Continent. At present, unless the eleven major factions joined forces and dispatched all their subordinate forces to attack the royal city simultaneously, it would be absolutely impossible to shake even a fraction of the Fire God Palace. However, that scenario was completely out of the question.

"How should I put it? He’s a low-key person who minds his own business, yet he fears no trouble when trouble arises. The guild leader is Dusk, the top-ranked assassin of the Black Tortoise City Assassins' Alliance, and his hidden class is the Nether Ghost Assassin," said King Xuanling.

Now, with this method, one could leverage external force to fight back. After all, the power of the stars was vast, boundless, and inexhaustible; as long as one's own cultivation could withstand such violent force, it would suffice.

The sky frowned deeply as he stared at the motionless golden figure. What play was Duo'er acting out by leaving behind this golden figure? Could it be that the dragon pendant contained such energy capable of condensing into a solid form? Even if this were the secret of the dragon and phoenix necklace, how was the scene before him achieved, and what purpose did it serve?

"Haha, what are you still doing here, Daoist? Why don't you hurry and leave? Immortal Yunya does not welcome you, so do not stay here and make a laughingstock of yourself." The young man from earlier walked over drunkenly, carrying a flask of wine, and patted Li Xiuyuan's shoulder with a hearty laugh.

Hearing this, a look of astonishment appeared on Li Xiuyuan's face, which then turned solemn, followed by a hesitant expression before he immediately lapsed into silence.

Having lived so long, Sparrow understood all the nuances of human relations and worldly affairs. Patting Sparrow on the shoulder, Kailuo smiled; indeed, he had no intention of lingering on the deck—having Sparrow outside was quite enough.

In other words, a cultivator with formidable strength was essentially a walking lie detector. Ordinary people or low-tier practitioners need not even think about concealing anything.

"What?" The captain and the others could hardly believe that this adventurer would choose to leave, and instantly, disappointment turned into a surge of anger.

One must realize that for any other Qi-condensation realm cultivator, it would likely take at least several years, if not a decade or more, to break through to the Yuan-fusion realm and become a powerhouse in their own right.

The impending achievement of Yuan-fusion was an unexpected pleasant surprise from the previous night, though he wondered if this matter had been foreseen by the Eldest Senior Sister in her calculations.

After all, being a municipal committee leader, the office conditions were quite good. It was a suite comprising an office, a reception room, and a bedroom.

The high density he had just mentioned was no exaggeration; the location where Fang Bai found himself was one of the core areas where deities had fallen, and the density of this rainfall was extraordinary.

At the front of this iron hammer was an extremely sharp arrow, wreathed in a bizarre and eerie force, as if anything standing in its way would be instantly cleaved and disintegrated.

His original superior was Inspector Nakamori of Investigation Division Two, who had dedicated many years to capturing Kaitou Kid, but happened to fall ill and take a leave of absence precisely today. The person substituting for him in the surveillance room, overseeing the big picture and commanding this showdown against Kid, was none other than the male voice coming through the earphones.

Upon exiting the secret realm channel, he attempted to open the trading zone and private messages, only to find that both options were dimmed and completely empty.

The ground was not flat at all; it resembled a mountain range blazing with fire, featuring undulating ridges and scorched earth.

Fang Bogen's forging craftsmanship was the finest in the entire village, and ordinarily, he only accepted custom forging commissions.

Kaiming, having turned back upon hearing the words of the figure in white, rubbed the rear end that had just been kicked, grinned from ear to ear, and promptly stepped into the white-robed one's treasure room.
