“Cough, cough, cough…”

Ye Xiao climbed out of the mountain awkwardly.

Of course, his body was fine, but there was a little dust on his body.

Just like when he advanced to Xiantian seventh grade, after advancing to Xiantian eighth grade, Ye Xiao’s cultivation increased by too much. It was so much that if he did not practice for a period of time, it would be hard for him to control it.

After using the Divine Intent technique, his speed was so fast that even he did not dare to imagine it.

Just a moment ago, he was still in the Zhong province and Chu province’s Hundred Thousand Mountains. In just a few seconds, he had returned to Jianghai city in the blink of an eye.

Ye Xiao estimated that with his current strength if he were to face a Xiantian seventh grade like himself, he would be able to crush the Xiantian seventh-grade martial artists with one hand.

Too strong!

If a Xiantian eighth grade was already so strong, he wondered how terrifying the Xiantian ninth grade would be?

What about the king and emperor realms after that?

How strong would they be?

Just thinking about it made Ye Xiao’s heart beat faster, and he could not help but yearn for it.

In the past, he was more nonchalant, but now, he had changed his mindset.

After obtaining the sweetness of power, he would yearn for even more.

Ye Xiao remembered that in his previous life, he had heard an elder say that.

When a person did not earn money, it was very difficult for him to work hard, because he could not feel the pleasure and charm brought by money.

However, when he earned money, through spending, he stimulated his most primitive ambitions, and his entire person would work very hard to earn money.

That was probably the situation he was in now.

He did not expect to be so strong. Although a grandmaster was already very impressive, the abilities of a grandmaster were limited after all. Now, Ye Xiao felt that he could shake the might of the heavens.

The difference between these two was really different.

The hearts of people would really change.

Recalling his domineering aura that split apart the tribulation clouds in an instant, Ye Xiao would probably never get used to submitting to anyone in that lifetime.

Perhaps, the pride of a strong person was created because of that?

At that moment, there were already quite a number of people gathering by the river. With a tap of Ye Xiao’s feet, his body quickly disappeared from where he was.

That time, he did not use the Divine Intent technique again, and his speed became much slower.

Even so, Ye Xiao felt that his speed was so fast that it made one’s hair stand on end.

It looked like he had to learn more in the next few days about how to perfectly control the power of a Xiantian eighth-grade supreme grandmaster.

When Ye Xiao returned home, it was already almost dawn.

However, when he opened the door, he could not help but be stunned on the spot.

On the sofa, there was a young and beautiful girl lying down.

She had a pair of cat ears and a well-proportioned figure. She was already on par with Qin Yuyan and Yang Xi.

She did not lose to them at all!

Her face was especially fair and her skin was crystal clear. It was many times better than the skin of many women.

Her pair of long legs were like chopsticks. They were thin and long. Under the cover of the black stockings, they appeared even more slender.

“Hehehe… Eat chicken wings, master. I want to eat chicken wings. Spicy chicken wings…”

At that moment, ravings came from the other party’s mouth. Ye Xiao could guess that the fellow was Huan Liuli.

Furthermore, she had already advanced to Xiantian fifth grade.

As expected of his star pet. The speed at which her strength increased was really fast.

The power of a dragon-class bloodline could be seen the further one progressed.

Ordinary star beasts would find it harder to advance due to the lack of bloodline power.

In fact, they might even be unable to advance.

As for Huan Liuli, she did not have to worry about that.

There was another point. Although the Phantom Cat bloodline was mainly focused on cultivating spiritual energy, after devouring the bloodlines or star cores of other powerful dragon-class star beasts, she had a certain chance, she would be able to obtain the power of other bloodlines.

If she could find a suitable bloodline for her, allowing her to have the power to fight with spiritual energy and develop in a balanced way, her potential would be even more immeasurable.

At that time, there were many things that she did not need to do and could arrange for Huan Liuli to do.

Perfect!

However, at that moment, Huan Liuli turned around. Originally, she was sleeping on her stomach, but now, she was sleeping on her back.

“…”

Was… was that the price he had to pay for keeping a powerful star pet?

Ye Xiao complained a little helplessly in his heart. Then, he covered her with the blanket.

It seemed like he could not let Huan Liu Li continue sleeping on the sofa in the future. After all, the child had already grown up and was very filial. Logically speaking, he should reward her.

He should give her a small room of her own tomorrow.

…

The next day soon arrived. On the way to work, Ye Xiao finished his breakfast and passed by Boss Xu’s shop. He saw Boss Xu carrying a suitcase and standing at the door, exhorting his daughter.

Now that he had advanced to Xiantian eighth grade, even if he did not need to use the Big Dipper’s Grand Mystery, he could easily hear voices from afar.

…

“Remember, don’t sell the item at the wrong price. If you don’t know the price, give me a call immediately.”

“I got it.”

“Don’t buy any weapons while I’m gone. Some little brats might use inferior items to fool you when they see that I’m not around.”

“Okay.”

“Also, that Ye Xiao, he may be good-looking but he’s got a bad heart. Don’t have too many interactions with him. Do you understand?”

“Alright!”

After giving these few instructions, Boss Xu turned around and prepared to get into the car. The moment he turned around, his gaze happened to sweep across Ye Xiao.

He was first stunned, then he snorted softly and turned around to leave.

Ye Xiao was not angry either. After all, he was the one who had turned Boss Xu into that state.

Previously, in order to prevent Boss Xu from being searched by others and finding out about the throwing knives that he had refined, Ye Xiao changed it to Boss Xu losing over a million dollars to him.

From then on, Boss Xu no longer liked him.

Anyway, as long as he did not have that memory, he would not be searched by others. As long as he was a master weaponsmith, it would be fine.

After Boss Xu got into the car and left, Ye Xiao came to the entrance of the shop and asked Xu Damao curiously,

“Damao, your father is so weird. What happened?”

“My father doesn’t want me to talk to you.”

Ye Xiao handed over two steamed buns.

“Here, bean buns. They’re still warm.”

Xu Damao hesitated for a moment and took the steamed buns.

“I’m telling you, don’t tell my father.”

“I know.”

Xu Damao looked in the direction of his father’s departure. After making sure that he would not come back, she took a bite of the steamed bun with a satisfied look and continued,

“My father has gone to Jiang province. There’s going to be an armament-refining convention in Jiang province’s Hu city. I heard that there will be a sumptuous prize.”

“What prize?”

“There seem to be several prizes. There’s a special metal used to refine weapons, a 1,000-year-old meteorite, 1,000-year-old golden sand, and materials for the supreme sect star beast. Oh right, there’s also a spatial amethyst.”

Ye Xiao’s eyes suddenly moved.

Spatial amethyst!

Good stuff!

That was a type of spatial material. Its grade was much stronger than obsidian, and the spatial energy that could be stored within was many times stronger.

His spatial ring was made of obsidian, and he was worried that he could not inject more spatial energy into it.

He did not expect to receive news of a spatial amethyst.

It seemed that he had to think of a way to obtain this spatial amethyst.

“Oh right, when did Old Xu learn how to refine artifacts?”

“My dad doesn’t know how to refine artifacts, he’s just taking the opportunity to buy a batch of weapons. There are many refiners participating in the competition, and they will definitely be able to create many good weapons. My dad isn’t participating in the competition.”

“I see, goodbye then, I’m going to be late for work.”

“You mustn’t tell my dad that I spoke to you. Otherwise, he’ll scold me again.”

Xu Damao could not help but remind him again.

“Don’t worry.”

Ye Xiao turned around and left. He was secretly calculating in his heart.

Speaking of which, Ji Feng had already left for a long time. She should have already found other divine-level star beasts by now, right?

She also had to find Ji Feng and seize the opportunity to catch a few star beasts back.

When the time came, he would raise them all like pets. Hmm, when the time came, when he wanted to eat meat, he would directly chop off half a beast, eat half a beast, and use the other half to revive it. He would save it for later, and it would last forever.

The meat of a divine-level star beast was not only food that had a texture that far exceeded that of ordinary food. At the same time, it also possessed a huge amount of blood essence, and it could bring many benefits, especially in terms of cultivation.

He might as well take a few days off.

In any case, the seven stars alignment had already ended, so there would not be much danger for the time being.

Moreover, director Ouyang had not retired yet. He still had Yang Xi to take care of his own area, so it would not be much trouble for him to take a few days off.

…

Half an hour later.

“You said… You want to take a leave?”

In the director’s office, Ouyang Yunzhong looked at Ye Xiao’s leave request and pushed up her glasses.

“This is really rare. You usually don’t take leave, and you even come over to read on Saturdays and Sundays. The time you spend in the library is even longer than the time you spend at home.

“You actually want to take leave now.”

Ye Xiao nodded.

“I recently talked to an online friend and made an appointment to meet them.”

“Oh, you’re finally starting to think about life’s important matters? Then I’ll have to approve this leave for you. Otherwise, I’ll be committing a huge sin.”

Ouyang Yunzhong immediately approved the leave request slip for Ye Xiao.

“I’m afraid seven days isn’t enough. I’ll approve ten days for you. In any case, the library isn’t very busy during this period of time. Yang Xi will take care of it for you. You can rest assured and go.”

“Thank you, Director.”

Ye Xiao took the slip and left.

As for Director Ouyang, she looked at Ye Xiao’s departing figure with some worry.

“This child is too naive. Every day, it’s two o’clock and one line. Other than work, he only goes home. Could he be deceived by others? I heard that right now, many of the people who are rushing about are old ladies.”

She paused and shook her head again.

“Forget it. It shouldn’t be a big deal. After all, even if there is an old lady, Ye Xiao won’t be at a disadvantage. After all, he is a man. Besides, he has learned from his mistakes.. I’ll treat it as a form of tempering.”
