“Do you think he is dead?” Huno heard someone say. The voice was sweet and meticulous. At the same time something poked his face. “Hmm,” Huno growled. “No he isn’t dead,” the voice replied. “Hey! Just leave him there. We’ll be late,” Huno opened his eyes slowly. The bright light forced him to raised his hand over his face. “Oh he is waking up,” After closing and opening his eyes a few times, Huno managed to open his eyes properly. He found two people, a young man and a young lady. “Are you alright?” the young lady asked. “I’m fine thank you,” “You don’t have to thank me I haven’t done anything,” “I was being polite. Where am I?” Huno asked. “Hmm, you are in the Tang forest, on the outskirt of the Azure feather territory,” “Thank you,” “Where are you from?” “”Em, (Huno frowned) I don’t remember,” “How did you end up here?” “I don’t know. I don’t even know who I am,” “Liar,” Cleo laughed. “Hmm, do you…” “Excuse us,” the young man s
“That’s our shop over there,” Mi Hi said. “Okay. Bow to them,” Huno said and faced the chaise. “We thank the esteemed ones. May your power grow beyond imaginations,” The chaise stopped. “You are one interesting fella. What’s your name?” “This one is Huno. May I ask the esteemed one what his name is?” “You dare,” one of the guards yelled. “Relax. I am Ye Qang of the Ye family,” the person replied. And spoke to Huno with his divine sense. “Do you mind becoming one of my people?” “The Ye family is one of the big families?” Huno whispered to Mi Hi and she nodded. “Sorry, but I don’t want to get involved with the big families. A simple life is what I seek,” Huno replied. “That won’t be possible. The big families will seek you. I doubt you will have a simple life,” “Hmm, then allow me to think about it. I would like to give it more thoughts,” “I’ll send someone to you in three days,” “Oke-dokey,” “Oke-dokey?” “Means okay,” “Let’s go,” Ye Qang ordered. “L
“This…” “I want to know why those two reacted like that and called me grandmaster,” Huno interrupted Mi Ghong. “And please get up,” One by one, they stood up. Mi Hi and Mi Bong helped Mi Ghong to get up. “Alchemist are rare here. And everyone available are precious and taken by the big families,” Mi Ghong explained. “The price I told you is the market price, at auction houses the price doubles or triples that amount,” Huno smiled wholeheartedly. “So how much is the market price for a king grade pill?”“King grade pill are between twenty million to forty million depending on where you buy it,” Mi Hi replied. Huno eyes had sparkles in them and his smile got bigger. “Where is the nearest auction house? And when are they holding an auction?” “Two days from now sir,” Mi Hi answered. “There’s a big auction going on because of the festival. All the big families will be there, and other important guests will be there,”“Good, you’ll take me there,” “Sir! We thank you very mu
After having a lovely time, Huno took Elta to another part of Hacel. “These are king crystals. And the king Qi here is high. Husband, why didn’t you bring me here since?” “Sorry, so tell me about king Qi,” “When an expert achieves the first petal, he or she will continue cultivating with king Qi. You can’t get another petal without it,” “That’s it?” “That’s it. Anyway, husband I want to seclude myself here. Is it okay?” “Sure, there are several caves in the mountain, pick one and cultivate. I’ll pull the king Qi to you,” Huno said and placed his hands together. “Please when you feel like breaking through let me know first,” “Why?” “Because, I would bring you out first. It may cause serious shock to my body,” “Oh okay. You said there was a part with nature essence, right?” “Yeah, the nature essence is abundant. Don’t worry I’ll take your disciples there,” “Thank you. I’ll see you when I break through,” Elta kissed him and then flew to the mountain. Hu
Huno stared at him, expecting him to continue but he didn’t. “What’s a Meling?” “Sir, Meling are a kind of race that look human but aren’t human. They have long pointed ears, blessed with physical body strength that rival that of king, (Huno frowned) and are blessed with a better cultivation physique when compared to humans. And their females are more attractive than humans,” Mi Ghong explained. “Isn’t this race just a combination of elves and dwarves?” Huno thought. “So why is he a slave?” he asked. “Melings were blessed but also cursed. They can’t leave their homeland without a master. If they do they die. And if they betray their master they die,” “For real?” Huno eyes widened. “Yeah. The Azure family were the first to realize it and they took it to their advantage,” Mi Ghong replied. “That’s why they are the biggest family here?” “Yeah, partially. If they wanted they could mobilize every cultivator there,” Mi Ghong replied. “Sir, I want to apologize for wh
. . . . . After about forty minutes Jae Cha back. “Forgive me for the delay sir,” “It’s alright,” “Here is what you asked for,” she said and gave him a storage ring. “Forgive for not being able to walk you out. I have to attend to another client. But I have someone ready to walk you out,” “Okay, Jiu let’s go. It was nice doing business with you. Hope we can continue to do more,” “Yes of course sir,” Huno and Jiu left the office and the lady who had brought them here received them and showed them the way out. . . . “Where to next sir?” “Your home land,” “That would not be possible sir. My homeland is outside the city and considering the crowd trying to get into the city, I would not be able to meet up with the time my master gave,” “Tell your master I would give him one platinum pill to have you for the full day,” Jiu nodded and brought the cube out again. After a while he nodded at Huno. “Master agrees,” “Let’s go then,” The chariot sta
“How good is a Merling physique for cultivation,” “When compared to the average human you can say it is about three to six times better. It depends on the Meling,” “Okay. So if they have enough resources their cultivation will be fast,” “Yeah, here is something most buyers don’t know. Melings require a little more energy than humans for cultivation. Though it isn’t of much difference but it can make ones money and resources go dry,” “Haha, with the resources I have, it would be hard for it to go dry,” Huno thought and laughed. “So what amount of resources did your master spend to get you to your current realm,” “Em, if I remember correctly my master spent close to, if not more than, two hundred million king crystals, for me to reach the second petal,” Huno eyes widened and his mouth drop opened. “For real?” “I’m kidding sir. I was bought at the second petal,” “Ah, haha,” Huno held his chest and laughed. “Don’t do that again. I almost had a heart attack,” Huno
“Queen?” Hiroshi asked. “If I can find the queen and bring her of your body, the others will follow. But the issue is finding the queen,” Huno thought. “Where in your body did you feel your energy being eaten the most?” “My core,” “Thought as much. Stand up,” Huno said. “Steel yourself, a battle might break out,” They both stood up and Huno noticed the crowd around him. Many of the Melings were watching from a distance. “You guys should stepped out of the circle. Having you on it consumes a lot of energy,” Huno said. “Some of you are absorbing it unknowingly,” “Oh, we are sorry,” everyone stepped back. Huno turned to Hiroshi and placed his hands on Hiroshi’s abdomen. He urged his energy and poured it into Hiroshi’s body. Hiroshi’s entire body turned white just like Huno’s. Hiroshi watched as the energy covered his entire body and as the insects fed on it. He followed Huno’s divine sense to his core region. Right there were five big insects and several smaller ones,
