Cang City was located to the south of the House of Ares. It was one of the six main cities in the prefecture. It managed twenty big cities and a hundred small cities in the south. To the south was the vast Savage Mountain Range that separated the House of Ares from the Barbarian God Mansion.
The Savage Mountain Range was winding and boundless. It was full of thorns and demons. It could be said to be a dangerous place. It was said that in the depths of the mountain range, there were holy beasts that were comparable to Battle Sages. It was a forbidden zone for life. It was comparable to the Dark Mountain Range, the second most dangerous place in the continent.
Although it was dangerous, the Savage Mountain Range was not like the Dark Mountain Range, where humans would definitely die. As long as warriors did not enter the depths of the mountain range, they still had a chance of survival if they encountered powerful demons.
Hence, the outer region of the Savage Mountain Range became the best paradise for adventurers in the House of Ares. It also became the best training ground for warriors.
The small city near the mountain range, Barbarian City, gradually became prosperous because of the influx of adventurers. Barbarian City was originally one of the hundred small cities in the south. Due to its unique location, it developed into a scale comparable to the twenty big cities.
Dark Moon Hotel!
It was a famous hotel next to the south gate of Barbarian City. The hotel had three floors. The first floor was the restaurant, the second and third floors were the guest rooms.
At this moment, a young man in green was sitting by the window on the first floor. The young man looked delicate and weak. He frowned as he looked at the people on the street. No one knew what he was thinking.
This person was Ye Qinghan, who came from Cang City a few hundred miles away. After saying goodbye to his sister that day, he followed a caravan alone. After half a month, he finally arrived at the southernmost Barbarian City of the House of Ares.
Barbarian City was indeed a paradise for adventurers. There were as many adventurers here as there were hairs on a cow. Every day, many adventurers would go to the mountain range to train and kill demons. Every time adventurers returned, they would bring back many demon beast furs and magic crystals. As a result, the magic crystals here were very cheap.
Ye Qinghan was very excited when he first arrived. After all, it was his first time traveling far. Also, coming here was the right choice. He bought a lot of magic crystals at a very low price.
Today was the 13th day that he had stayed in the Barbarian City. He had bought a large number of magic crystals for his daily expenses, and he did not have much money left. On the other hand, his beast, Xiao Hei, was still the same as usual. After eating, it would sleep, and after sleeping, it would eat. It did not look like it was going to pass through its weak period. The only change was that it seemed to have grown a little. When it was first summoned, it was only the size of a fist, but now it was the size of a palm. Therefore, he felt a headache coming on. He decided not to meditate in his room when he had nothing to do. Instead, he went down to the dining room and ordered a cup of cheap wine to drink alone.
"It's been almost a month. I wonder how Qingyu is doing at home? Xiao Hei, Xiao Hei … How many magic crystals do you need to eat to get through this period of weakness? " Looking at the people coming and going outside the window, Ye Qinghan's mind was filled with a myriad of thoughts, and his eyes gradually blurred. It was as if he could see the quiet courtyard of his house, and the frail figure of his sister was standing in the courtyard, looking in the direction of the Barbarian City.
Sigh!
He then thought of his current situation, and his eyes couldn't help but become even more confused. Talent, talent! His talent was really too poor. In the past twenty days, he had not stopped cultivating.
During the half a month on the road, he had been cultivating non-stop in the horse carriage. When he reached the Barbarian City, other than going out to buy magic crystals, he had been cultivating in his room.
When a warrior cultivated, the first step was to strengthen their body and enter the Martial Husband Realm. The children of the Ye Family had been practicing martial arts since young, and they would usually reach the Martial Husband Realm at around the age of six. After the age of six, they would start to absorb the spiritual energy of heaven and earth into their body, turning it into a small amount of Battle Aura. This was the most common Soldier Realm. He had only used a little more than a month to reach this realm. His father was a genius, but he had also used a month to reach this realm. This meant that his comprehension was not bad, and his talent in martial arts could be considered to be above average.
Following that, the Elite Realm needed to use the small amount of Battle Aura in the body to open up and expand the body's Yang Meridian, Yin Meridian, Chong Meridian, Artery, Left Minor Foot Meridian, Right Minor Foot Meridian, Left Breathing Meridian, Right Breathing Meridian, and the Nine Heavenly Meridian. The Nine Meridians of the Heavens were the nine small meridians in the body. If all of them were opened, one could enter the Commander Realm.
The Commander Realm needed to open and expand the three main meridians in the body, the Ren Meridian, the Governing Meridian, and the Extraordinary Meridian, as well as condensing the Dantian. When all three major meridians were opened and condensing the Dantian, one would reach the General Realm.
The training of the Elite Commander Realm and the Elite Commander Realm focused a lot on the individual's body and talent. Many people in the House of Ares were stuck in these two realms for their entire lives. Ye Qinghan was one of these people. There were a lot of blockages in the twelve meridians in his body, almost eighty percent of them were blocked.
Therefore, after ten years of cultivation, Ye Qinghan had only opened the Yang and Yin meridians. Now, he was focusing on opening the Chong Meridian with all his might.
In these twenty days, Ye Qinghan had bitterly cultivated his Battle Aura and tried his best to open the Chong Meridian, but the results were not very good. He had only opened two to three percent, which was too low.
As for the Beast Xiao Hei, it had been eating and sleeping every day for more than twenty days. It did not look like it had passed through its weak period. He remembered the words of Elder Tian Xing in the Warbeast Academy: The higher the level of the beast, the longer its weak period. It seemed that it was unrealistic to let Xiao Hei pass through its weak period in a short period of time.
He had made a mistake in his thinking. Originally, he thought that with his savings, he could come to the Barbarian City and buy a large amount of Level 1 magic crystals to let the Beast pass through its weak period and merge with him. Then, he could openly return to the family and become a core disciple.
He did not expect … Eh! He could only take the risk and enter the mountain.
Ye Qinghan touched the bag in his arms and made a decision in his heart. The bag was filled with the miscellaneous items he had bought at the shop the day before yesterday, as well as some tools to enter the mountain. The money he had on him was almost depleted. If he wanted to continue obtaining magic crystals, he could only rely on himself to enter the Barbarian Mountain Range to hunt.
… …
Just as Ye Qinghan was deep in thought.
A tall and mighty man with a giant sword on his shoulder walked into the inn. As soon as the man entered the door, he sat down on a chair and shouted, "Dear Little Yue Yue, quickly give me a pot of Blue Enchantress. I haven't drunk the wine you brewed in a long time. I miss it so much."
The restaurant was attracted by the man's loud voice. A skinny warrior with long hair and a shawl stood up and said, "Ha, I was wondering who it was. So it's our Big Brother Raptors. Raptors, I don't think you're thinking about the Dark Moon's wine, but our beautiful Lady Boss Dark Moon, haha … "
"Hehe! Go to hell, Zhao Tie, you brat, you even dare to take liberties with me. Be careful that I don't suck you dry tonight. "A beautiful young woman behind the counter walked over leisurely with a wine jar in her hand.
This beautiful woman looked to be about 22 or 23 years old. She had a voluptuous figure, a face like a peach blossom, and a pair of phoenix eyes that were full of charm. She was very attractive. The beautiful young woman rolled her eyes at the skinny middle-aged man and placed the wine on the Raptors' table. A snow-white arm leaned on the Raptors' shoulder and said with a charming smile, "Raptors, you brat, do you have a new lover? You don't miss me anymore? You only came here after half a month? "
"Hehe!" The Raptors stretched out a dark palm and was about to touch Dark Moon's perky butt. Dark Moon seemed to have already known this. She swung her hand and sent the Raptors' hand flying. She rolled her eyes and walked away while twisting her butt.
The Raptors laughed lewdly and said, "Xiao Yue Yue, you always say that you want to do this and that with me. Why don't you let me touch you once?"
"That's right, my beautiful Lady Boss Dark Moon. You always say that you want to suck me dry. Why don't you do it? You make me wash up early every day and wait for you in the room. But every night, I'm alone in my room. I'm as lonely as the snow … "The skinny middle-aged man named Zhao Tie swept his hair and looked extremely coquettish.
When the Raptors saw that the limelight had been stolen by Zhao Tie, he laughed and scolded, "You're alone in your room my ass. Xiao Yue Yue, I'm reporting Zhao Tie. He went to the Ten Thousand Flower House some time ago. His private life is very messy. He's so thin, I'm afraid he's already in the late stages of being poisoned. "
When Zhao Tie heard this, he slammed the table and scolded, "Raptors, you're bullsh * tting! Don't think that you always practice mutual combat in front of Dark Moon's portrait at night. Do you think I don't know that your Second Master's … "
Seeing that the two of them were about to fight, Dark Moon's face turned cold. She glared at them and said angrily, "Alright, you two, even if you're familiar with each other, you'll still have to compensate me double if you break the table … You both want to f * ck me, right? Fine! No problem, when you can beat me, I'll wash up and send myself to you. "
"…"
The two of them immediately shrank back. Just now, they were as powerful as tigers, but now, they were like mice that had encountered a cat. This beautiful young woman, Dark Moon, had unfathomable skills. Don't be fooled by her usual debauchery, she was merciless when she attacked.
"Haha …"
Seeing the two of them acting coquettishly, everyone in the restaurant laughed. Ye Qinghan couldn't help but smile when he heard this. This pair of clowns was really interesting. However, he also admired the extremely coquettish Lady Boss. Her way of doing business was simply at an extremely high level. Most of the men in this room were here for her.
Moreover, this Dark Moon's figure was really not for show. She was perky in all the places that should be perky. Just looking at her was a feast for the eyes. She was a beauty on the same level as the Little Witch Ye Qingwu in the family, but the Lady Boss was more mature. She was invincible.
"Hehe, you always stare at me. Do you also have some thoughts?" Ye Qinghan's gaze attracted the Lady Boss's attention. Dark Moon held a glass of red wine and giggled. She walked over and sat opposite him. This little boy was sitting alone in front of the window. He was obviously young, but he exuded a sense of vicissitudes, which inadvertently attracted her attention. At this moment, seeing Ye Qinghan looking at her, she took this opportunity to get some information out of him.
"Hehe, sister, you're so charming. Any man would have some thoughts." Ye Qinghan indifferently glanced at Dark Moon's bulging chest. This mature sister's methods were indeed extraordinary. She immediately turned everyone's attention to him.
"Hehe, can you even be considered a man? I'm afraid you haven't even tasted the taste of a woman. "Dark Moon deliberately shook her chest. Her face was seductive, which caused everyone in the room to burst into laughter.
"Hehe, whether I'm a man or not, you'll know after you try. How about we go and practice now? "Ye Qinghan leisurely picked up the wine glass on the table and took a sip. He said with a somewhat evil tone.
The 15 years of oppressive life in the Ye Family had made his heart feel a little depressed.
Today, they arrived at the Barbarian City, more than 400 miles away from the Ye Family. He couldn't help but feel a little relaxed. It was like a carp leaping over the dragon's gate. The vast sea and sky were free for birds to fly. Moreover, as a person who had lived two lives, he didn't have any stage fright in front of this kind of romantic battle. Therefore, contrary to his usual behavior, he actually counterattacked.
"Urk …" Dark Moon was speechless. She always teased others, and today, she was finally teased by someone else.
"Haha, yes! Yue Yue, go and try. Suck him dry if you can! "
"Dark Moon finally met her match. This young man has a bright future. He's incomparably flirtatious!"
Everyone in the restaurant saw Dark Moon being defeated for the first time. They all laughed and followed suit.
After all, Dark Moon was a veteran in the romantic arena. She rolled her eyes and had an idea. She giggled and said, "Not bad, you have character. How about this, I'm currently a second-level general. I'll use half of my strength to fight you. If you beat me, I'll accompany you for a night. What do you think? "
"Tsk … Dark Moon, you're cheating. This young man's battle aura is obviously only at the first-level elite. You're a second-level general, two levels higher than him. Moreover, he doesn't have enough battle experience. How can he fight you?"
"Yes, Dark Moon is bullying. You have to suppress at least two-thirds of your battle aura."
The people at the side were unhappy. Even if a second-level general used half of his strength, it was obvious that an elite martial artist couldn't defeat him. Everyone wanted to make the show more exciting and started to jeer again.
"Alright, I agree."
Ye Qinghan thought for a while and smiled evilly. He suddenly said, "However, can this battle be postponed for three months? Three Moon Queen, I'll fight you. If I lose, I'll do odd jobs for you for three months. If I win, you have to accompany me for a night. What do you think? "
"Three months?" Dark Moon looked at Ye Qinghan's evil smile and felt goosebumps.
The people at the side were unhappy and shouted, "Don't worry, Dark Moon.
"The Dark Moon is not afraid. Three months of chores in exchange for a night of fun. This is a good bet. I support you."
"Dark Moon, promise him. Don't go back on your words. How far can an elite martial artist reach in three months?"
"Yes, Lady Boss, if you go back on your words, we won't come here anymore."
Dark Moon looked at the people who were like bulls in heat and felt a little regretful. However, on second thought, this young man was only at the first-level elite martial artist after cultivating for so long. At most, he would reach the second-level in three months. She could easily defeat him with only half of her battle aura. Helpless, she nodded and said, "Alright, I'll bet with you today. If I lose, won't I have to accompany you for a night? I'll make a profit. I'll bet! "
"Hehe, everyone, be my witness. I'll be back in three months." Ye Qinghan drank the wine in his cup in one gulp and walked toward the door.
"Little brother, I have high hopes for you." The tall man, Meng Long, laughed heartily. This brat had given them face after all. However, when he saw Ye Qinghan picking up his bag and walking towards the door, he couldn't help but ask curiously, "Eh … Where are you going now?"
"I'm going to the Savage Mountains to practice combat experience. I'll be back on time in three months."
A voice came from afar. Everyone in the restaurant was speechless. This kid was really strong. What did it mean to sharpen one's spear at the last minute? This was called sharpening one's spear at the last minute …
Everyone in the hotel was speechless. This kid actually dared to bet with Dark Moon without any combat experience. One had to know that to be able to open a hotel in the Savage City, where all sorts of people lived, one had to have a certain level of ability.
There were also some people who had a different attitude. This kid looked very calm. Maybe he was hiding some tricks. However, most of them hoped that this kid could win. Dark Moon, this tough woman, opened the Dark Moon Hotel here three years ago. Every day, she would flirt with the customers as if it was easy to get the hang of it. However, in the past three years, no one had been able to touch her. Let alone touch her, it was difficult. These people had been holed up here all year round, but they didn't even get to touch her. Of course, they hated this kid and hoped that he could represent them to take her down.
"Oh no! Don't tell me this kid really has no combat experience. He will lose his life if he enters the mountain so recklessly. " The majestic Raptors suddenly shouted. He walked to the door and looked around. However, there were people coming and going outside, and there was no sign of Ye Qinghan.
Ugh! Everyone thought for a while, and their eyes revealed a trace of worry. The Savage Mountains were not ordinary mountains. People would die if they ventured deep into the mountains. Moreover, the most dangerous thing in the mountains was not the magical beasts, but … the hunters.
"I hope that this little brother doesn't encounter a hunter …" The coquettish Boss Dark Moon also felt a trace of regret and sincerely prayed for him.
…
At this time, Ye Qinghan had already left the Savage City and was walking on the main road in the mountains.
The Savage City was located at the edge of the mountains. Once he left the city, he would enter the Savage Mountains. Many years ago, there was a legend that magical beasts would often run into the city and cause tragedies. However, after so many years of hunting by adventurers, there were very few magical beasts at the edge of the Savage City.
Ye Qinghan took out a small bag from his bosom. Inside were some necessary items for entering the mountains. He had already prepared these items. Inside was a small dagger, some dry rations, some fresh water, and some miscellaneous items.
Actually, he had wanted to enter the mountains to hunt magical beasts for a long time. In theory, with his elite combat power, it was not a problem for him to deal with Level 1 and Level 2 magical beasts. As long as he did not go deep into the mountains and did not encounter a group of Level 1 and Level 2 magical beasts, his life would still be guaranteed. However, his own beast, Xiao Hei, needed a large amount of magic crystals to survive its weak period. Since he was poor, he had no choice but to hunt by himself.
As for why he only entered the mountains today, it was because Ye Qinghan had never entered the Savage Mountains and had no combat experience. Therefore, for the past two days, Ye Qinghan had been collecting and inquiring about this knowledge. Today, he had made a bet with the Lady Boss Dark Moon, and finally made up his mind to directly enter the mountains.
"Sha, sha!"
Holding the dagger in his hand, he activated his Battle Qi and quickly walked on the mountain path. According to his understanding, there were basically no magical beasts in the surrounding 20 li of the Savage Mountains. It was already afternoon, so he had to travel 20 li before the sky turned dark. He had to enter the periphery of the Level 1 magical beasts' territory and find a safe place to spend the night. Then, he would start hunting Level 1 magical beasts the next morning.
The Savage Mountains were densely packed with magical beasts, but the areas where the magical beasts lived were very orderly. Generally, the outermost area was filled with Level 1 magical beasts, with a small number of Level 2 magical beasts mixed in. Further in was the area where Level 2 magical beasts lived, with a small number of Level 3 magical beasts mixed in, and so on. Of course, there was also the possibility of high-level magical beasts roaming around in the depths of the mountains. If adventurers encountered high-level magical beasts roaming around, then they could only blame themselves for being unlucky.
