As long as they joined the Heaven Ascension Pavilion, Li Xiao would not treat them badly.
Also, the beasts made him a lot of money earlier.
He didn’t want them to be sad.
Li Xiao was a fair man.
He gave rewards for good work and punishments for mistakes.
Without rules, there is no order.
The three beasts ate their pills happily.
They bowed to Li Xiao.
Although they could not talk, they were smart.
They knew Li Xiao was good to them.
Li Xiao said: “Keep working hard.
After every auction, I will give you more rewards.”
The four beasts worked even harder now.
They forgot about eating and sleeping.
They were very confident and happy they followed the right leader.
“Ling Long, Frost, pick a beast to be your mount.
In the future, I will help them level up.
That way, you won’t lose face.”
“Yes, Master!”
These beasts had great potential.
With training, they could become Tier 8 beasts.
Li Xiao looked at the sun.
He liked the warm sunlight.
He had been inside the pavilion for too long.
Today he wanted to breathe fresh air.
To make the place more beautiful, Li Xiao told Niu Meng to dig a stream.
He wanted to bring water from the spring nearby so he could see the water.
Niu Meng was fast.
He punched a big hole in the ground.
Then Frost and the others helped build it.
Soon, a bamboo pavilion by the water was finished.
Green mountains, clear water, and flowers.
Life would be very comfortable.
Li Xiao was satisfied.
Even without the auction house, this life would be great.
…
Misty Cloud Sect.
Yun Yun held the Amethyst Spiritual Crystal.
She really wanted to meet the Pavilion Master again.
“Teacher, you have been sad since you came back from the mountains.
Did something happen?”
Nalan Yanran walked over.
She held her teacher’s arm. This story is hosted at g.com.
“Teacher, I just finished my training.
I missed you so much.”
Yun Yun smiled and rubbed her head.
“Yanran, you are now a 9-star Dou Zhe.
You are almost a Dou Shi.
You are very fast.”
Nalan Yanran smiled: “It’s all because of you, Teacher.”
“By the way, Great Elder Yun Leng said you went to an auction house.
Was it fun?”
“Can I go too?”
Yun Yun smiled and touched Yanran’s nose.
“The mountains are dangerous.
You are not strong enough.
If something happens, I cannot protect you.
Also, you have an engagement.
Do not just play.
Do you understand?”
“Oh,” Yanran pouted.
“I understand.”
Yun Yun shook her head.
She looked at the disciples training outside.
She decided to give the crystal to Pill King Gu He.
She wanted him to make a pill for her.
Gu He knew he needed three things to absorb the Heavenly Flame.
Otherwise, it would burn him.
But finding those three things was hard.
He could only hope for help from the Heaven Ascension Pavilion.
…
A month passed quickly.
Li Xiao became a 7-star Dou Zhe.
Every time he leveled up, he felt strong power in his body.
It was special.
But he didn’t care.
Getting stronger is always good!
“Not bad.
Practicing inside the pavilion is much faster than outside.
No wonder I leveled up so quickly.”
Li Xiao thought the system was great.
“Come on!
The boy might be hiding here.”
“Follow me!”
Many footsteps came from outside.
They were shocked by the view.
They didn’t know the mountains had such a beautiful place.
The leader was a fat man.
He was very heavy, and the ground shook when he walked.
“Commander, this is a great place.
The boy must be here.”
“I think so,” said He Meng, the Third Commander of the Wolf Head Mercenary Group.
“Look around.
Keep your eyes open.
If you see the boy, attack him.”
He Meng looked around.
He thought this would be a great base.
Just then, his man shouted in surprise.
He Meng thought they found Xiao Yan.
He ran over, but he didn’t see their enemy.
He saw two beautiful women in the bamboo pavilion.
He Meng, an 8-star Dou Zhe, was shocked.
He stood still.
He looked at them with greed.
Just by seeing them, he felt very excited.
The others also looked at them with bad thoughts.
They couldn’t believe they found such beauties in the mountains.
They thought they were lucky.
He Meng forgot about everything.
He ran over and licked his lips.
He pushed his wife aside.
“My god, I’m not dreaming, am I?
Two beauties, hehe.
I am He Meng, Third Commander of the Wolf Head Mercenary Group.
I am an 8-star Dou Zhe.
You are…
so beautiful…”
Frost looked at He Meng coldly.
She was disgusted.
If Li Xiao hadn’t told them to let birds and animals in, she would have closed the valley.
Now a piece of trash had arrived.
“Hehe, you look like you would taste good, hehehe.”
Li Xiao said: “You said you are He Meng, Third Commander of the Wolf Head Mercenary Group?”
He Meng frowned and looked mean.
“So what?
You boy, why are you with these beauties?
Do you want to die?
Get out of that chair now!”
