Chapter 38: Task completed!

“This woman hasn’t she the one Zhang Yen is friends with?”

Zhang Qinfeng look towards the young woman and was surprised by the coincidences.

In his memories he recognized this young woman being together with this former 3rd brother.

Not thinking too much he shook his it had nothing to with himself. 

“Hello everyone i would like to thank you before hand for your efforts. And at the sane time i would like to bring a piece of awful news.”

Lu Yuexi took a step in front and start it speaking. 

“As you can see our carriage the one your were sopposed to escort. Was damage so our time was delayed and that’s why you guys brought this empty one with you.”

Lu Yuexi explained making everyone understand.

“But to be honest now we need help ofnsyring cultivators like you to be able to continue. I would like to ask for you guys to help us move the ores from this carriage to the other one.”.

Lu Yuexi said.

“What?!”

“I tought were only sopposed to escort the carriage not work like labor force?”

“Are we gonna get paid more for this?”

There was various complained from a small group of hunters. 

“Btw i would like to make sure we’re on the same page. You guys would not receive additional compensation. It would just be as part of your job, of course anyone of you are free to go. But those who stay and help with the moving this ores to the new carriage. And also state during the escorot would still receive the 25 lower spirit stones.”

Lu Yuexi said making the whole scene silent.

Zhang Qinfeng couldn’t but admired a little her decision.

Not fearing of angering this group of marrow tempering realm. But he also found what she is kind of reasonable.

After they are literally earing 25 lower spirit stones for nothing!

Is not like the Lu Family would get so easily attack.

Having two dantian Realm dultivators as guardian. They were just making numbers as to facilitated certain things. 

And sure enough no one left, they were unwilling to let gobof those 25 lowr grade pirit stones.

They would getting such item by not risking they life. Usually when the hunt the always suffered small loses.

From healing potions, weapon breaking apart etc.

But they just needed to escort a carriage and earn a good reward how could they leave?

Everyone start silently taking down the ores and moving them very organized to the new carriage.

Lu Yuexi just smile calmly while Lu Men and Lu Kao were satisfied with Lu Yuexi way if handling things!

Lu Yuexi blue eyes suddenly narrowed and look at Zhang Qinfeng.

“Is there something?”

Lu men suddenly ask seeing Lu Yuexi face.

“No, nothing.”

Lu Yuexi shook her head but she recognized Zhang Qinfeng!

And what shock was his cultivation base! He was actually higher than her!

“How could this guy Zhang Yen older brother? Wasn’t he a waste a year ago and was exiled?”

Lu Yuexi said tought surprised.

She remember that her friend Zhang Yen brother was abolished. 

“Lu Yuexi you know that gentleman?”

Lu Kao suddenly ask he had keen eyes and saw Lu Yuexi look directly at Zhang Qinfeng.

He also realized in part because he has been paying attention to Zhang Qinfeng after all his mother was a behemoth at the same level of the old patriarch!

“Gentleman? Do you know him?”

Lu Yuexi ask curiously looking at how Lu Kao did not talk with disdain towards Zhang Qinfeng.

She knew the elder character well he a fool for no reason disdaining every one everything except when bump into strong people.

“I’m confused what did I missed?”

Ask Lu Men.

“No I don’t know him, but his mom is not easy to mess with.”

Lu Kao said shaking his head.

He did not want to talk about such strong Qi Gathering cultivator. 

But Lu Yuexi was curious.

…………

“Thank You very much everyone let’s now depart!”.

Lu Yuexi said with a bright smile.

Zhang Qinfeng check his body and breath sigh of relief.

“He what’s wrong with yiu?”

Ja Gu who is usually the mos quiet ask.

“Nothing was robbed.”

Zhang Qinfeng said honestly.

Ja Gu look at him weirdly.

“Junior it seem your more than cautious.”

This time Ni Aix chuckle.

In fact during the ore moving he bump into many people, so feeling the touch he always felt cautious that some pockey picker would act on him.

“Hey let him be okay, is his first time on a task right?”

Clum Se took side.

“By the way i hear a houtian realm that is friend with the red chamber of commerce appeared in auction on they name?”

Ni Aix said with envy

“What? A houtian realm? It seen they are very well connected”

Shen Jia said in shock.

She had admiration in those eyes and yearning.

Who would not want to? A houtian realm is a person that live for 200 years!

“Hey I have a question is it true they can fly in the sky?”

Zhang Qinfeng ask.

“They do! I actually saw two of them once.”

Ja Gu out of character said a little excited

“You did?”

Ni Aix ask curiously.

“Yes when I went to visit my sister at the Wind City, saw to elders from where she is at they literally fly.”

Ja Gu said with envy and helplessness.

“Wind city? How is over there?”

Zhang Qinfeng couldn’t help but ask.

“Well place like the Wind city has many more thing available to get on they Markey for us cultivators. But the strong over there are more much. Even Qi Gathering cultivators you can see them everywhere unlike in Mapple Leaf town”

Ja Gu said.

“Yeah I remember grandma once brought to a city on the taleyas. And it was amazing, you feel the strong everywhere.”

Shen Jia said.

“I hear unlike towns cities have a head at the realm above the houtian realm.”

Ni Aix said.

Due to the all the power lost many years ago and human fear towards being annihilated.

Not everyone were keen to made forces that dominate regions or larg areas.

But the wouldbbe strong people that still wanted to live with other humans.

So they made cities and towns, but thebtows just is a place for people to also be safer from monsters.

Even though in this that is no feasible your literally has a higher risk from kill by another human than a monster.

Or that’s what Zhang have read on the Zhishi tower but he did not doubt it.

He has even the cruel death of Nin Nang and Nin Nun they did not deserve it.

The work honestly and reach such a high cultivation by themselves but at the end they were eliminated as a fly and nobody care.

So the life is pretty clear the law of the jungle! The strongest fist have the truth and nothing else matters!

“Yeah unlike mapple leaf town the cities always had alchemists! Even the alchemist forces are in there!”

Shen Jian said.

“Hear they can make Qi Gathering pills if you take them it can increase your cultivation base fast than consuming spirit stones.”

Clum Se added.

“Yea but they are also no easy to make, my sister told me the requiere very valuable materials and to growths are difficult. Also that taking to much unlike the spirit stone could have resistant effect.”

Ja Gu told them about her sister knowledge.

“If mom could get those could she do a couple of breakthroughs. But sadly it also depend of quality if has too many impurity it might do more harm than good “

Zhang Qingfeng tought he knew about pills thanks to zhishi tower.

……….

For the next hours the journey was smooth, and after arriving at Mapple Leaf Town they even passed by the Zhang Family mansion complex.

But Zhang Qinfeng did not bat an eye on it, he was more into the conversation between him and Shen Jia.

………

2 hours later….

“Here’s is your paid thank for you hard work.”

Zhang Qinfeng received the 25 spirit stones and got his first ever task done!

“Hey about we eat together?”

Shen Jia suddenly said.

“Yeah why not? What do you think junior?”

Clum Se said.

They invited Zhang Qinfeng but he hesitated.

“What? Don’t tell your gonna be cautious of food too? Don’t tell your paranoia reach such frightening level?”

Shen Jia joke.

“Okay let’s go eat.”

Zhang Qinfeng had black lines on his forhead and said.

He was just hesitating because he did not know if his mom has cook. But he decided to apart from eating he would buy some for his mom in excuse. 

“Perhap she has been practicing and hadn’t have time to cook.”

Zhang Qinfeng tought.

………

After eating in another restaurant that was not Xia and Xui, Zhang Qinfeng ordered food for him and to take away.

While eating he socialize with the rest of the group, after all that’s was once the reason they have invited him.

It seem his social skill from back on earth here have some uses.
