Inside the upper room of the Chivalrous Association.
Although it was only a small room, it was exquisitely decorated. Harmless light elves formed a bright light source, and colorful fish swam back and forth in the crystal fish tank next to it, reflecting a gorgeous brilliance.
"Flying Fish Waterfall … Jia Kongming … and Hou Yong …"
Wu Ming sat cross-legged on the antique bed, memories of Jia Kongming's inheritance flashing through his mind.
"This Jia Kongming … is an extraordinary Spirit Controller of his generation. Although his combat power is not obvious, he travels all over the Illusory Spirit World, and his research on Illusory Spirits is rare …"
"Although this inheritance was set up casually by him, it's no small matter. One of the Illusory Spirit Illustrated Handbook, in particular, is all-encompassing and even mentions the theory of race advancement. It's a supreme treasure for spirit controllers …"
Speaking of this, Hou Yong had to be mentioned.
This young man's strength and talent were average, but by chance, he obtained great benefits from Jia Kongming's inheritance. Not only did he quickly advance to the soldier level, but he also contracted a Turquoise Ape.
Although this Turquoise Ape was an ancient Illusory Spirit and was very rare, it was only an elite species after all.
Who knew that in just a few years, Hou Yong's Turquoise Ape would evolve several times, first into an outstanding Power King Kong Ape, then all the way up to the Earth Turning Demon Ape, and then the Sky Turning Divine Monkey! It entered the king level!
Hou Yong himself also called himself the Sky Turning Monkey King! He was the new king of the Flame Land, an influential figure.
Such many race advancements naturally aroused the curiosity of many Spirit Controllers, but Hou Yong attributed it to the uniqueness of the Turquoise Ape Illusory Spirit left behind by Jia Kongming, which led to the craze of exploring Ancient Illusory Spirits.
"But in fact, the Illusory Spirit Guide played the biggest role … It is better to teach a man to fish than to teach him to fish. I still understand this principle …"
Wu Ming walked out of the door and immediately saw Hou Yong, who was waiting on the side, uneasy. "Lord John Doe!"
"Yes, come with me to the nearby market!"
Although he would become the Sky Turning Monkey King in the future, the king of Spirit Controllers, Hou Yong was now just a young man who had not even reached the soldier level, and he was ordered around by Wu Ming.
"Alright!"
Hou Yong's face was filled with joy, and his eyes were filled with curiosity towards Wu Ming as he dutifully brought him to the market of Waterfall City.
"Our Flying Waterfall City's water element phantoms and water element battle techniques are famous throughout the entire Flame Continent …"
He ran back and forth with a cheerful look on his face. Wu Ming, on the other hand, secretly glanced at the spirit controllers around him.
'Hmm … The Spirit Controllers who came for the Flying Fish Waterfall this time aren't very high-leveled, and the main competitors are just a few. What I really have to be careful of are the General-level and Commander-level Spirit Controllers who will rush here after the news of the inheritance spreads …'
In a Spirit Controller family, soldiers were the elites, captains were the backbone, and captains were the absolute upper echelons.
A great level could not be crossed!
Even though Wu Ming wasn't afraid of any Soldier Level Spirit Controller's challenge right now, if it was an Admiral Level Spirit Controller, it would be troublesome.
After all, a normal General-level Spirit Controller would definitely have a General-level Phantom!
'It's not safe to inherit Jia Kongming's inheritance at the soldier level … Unfortunately, although the Iron-Winged Golden Eagle is about to advance, it's not so easy to cross a great level …'
Wu Ming glanced at Hou Yong next to him without a trace.
To inherit the inheritance, strength was important, but luck was equally important!
This person's strength was low, but in the future, he would obtain the inheritance and rise quickly.
If he brought him along, he might be able to borrow some luck.
"There's nothing new. Let's go back! After all, the Flying Fish Waterfall's Fishing Bridge Feast is about to begin … "
Wu Ming suddenly said.
"Oh? Alright! "
Although it was a little strange for this lord to come out for a stroll without buying anything, Hou Yong still obediently agreed.
"Wait!"
At this moment, a soft voice came.
"You …"
Wu Ming frowned and looked at the person in front of him.
She was wearing a blue princess dress with tassels touching the ground, but her face was covered with a thin veil. Her skin was as fair as jade, and her ears were slightly pointed, giving her an exotic charm. The most unforgettable thing was her eyes, which were like stars in the night sky, as if they could see through everything.
"Miss!"
Next to her, there was a stern-looking wet nurse and a big man in armor protecting her. At first glance, one could tell that she was from an extraordinary family.
For some reason, when Wu Ming saw the girl's eyes, he immediately felt a little unhappy.
"What's the matter?"
Especially when he saw that the girl seemed to be quite interested in Hou Yong, and her beautiful eyes kept sizing up the young man, Wu Ming's heart sank.
"What's your name?"
The veiled girl was obviously very interested in Hou Yong, and she asked in a voice as clear as spring water.
"Hou … Hou Yong!"
Hou Yong's face turned red, and he stammered.
"You're from Flying Fish City? I'm going to Flying Fish Waterfall. Can you come with me? "
The girl said softly. Although it was a question, it gave off an unquestionable feeling, as if what she said was the truth.
"Okay … Wait a minute!"
Hou Yong almost agreed, but he suddenly bit his tongue. "But … I've already agreed to this lord!"
"Oh?"
The girl's sparkling eyes turned to look at Wu Ming. Her eyes seemed to contain starlight that could see through everything, and there was a hint of disdain in them.
"Hmph!"
Wu Ming snorted coldly. He felt the detection of a mysterious power, and he used the ability of the Observing Eye.
"Ah!"
The girl cried out in surprise and took a few steps back. It was obvious that she had suffered a small loss.
"What are you doing?"
Behind her, the big man who had been silent all this time suddenly roared like an enraged lion. His armor covered his whole body like flowing water, turning into two cross-shaped swords in his hands, and he stood in front of the girl.
A powerful aura spread out, and it immediately caused a commotion.
"It's a Soldier-level Spirit Controller!"
"A Spirit Controller is fighting!"
"That's … an elite cross-shaped armor! An Elemental Phantom! "
…
"Oh? Soldier-level? "
Wu Ming chuckled. With a flick of his finger, a stream of light flew out and turned into a small and exquisite Evil Wolf. It climbed onto his shoulder, and its blood-red eyes were eager to try. It also had a shocking evil aura.
"Evil Wolf … Be careful of its soul fire!"
The girl cried out softly. "Ah Li, step back!"
"Yes!"
The big man took a step back, but he still stood in front of the girl. His eyes were full of solemnity. "Who are you?"
"Shouldn't I be the one saying that?"
Wu Ming crossed his arms. "You came here rashly, wanted to snatch the person I hired, and even used a skill to detect me. Hehe … Hehe … The last person who was so bold had already turned into ashes …"
Even though it seemed like a threat, when the pocket-sized Evil Wolf roared, it meant that it was possible.
"I'm sorry …"
Even through the veil, he could see that the girl's face had turned slightly red. "I didn't know before …"
She walked forward, and there was sincerity in her eyes that could speak. "Mister … May I know if you can give me the right to hire him? I'm willing to pay three times the price, no! Five times the price! "
"Hmm?"
Wu Ming looked into her eyes, but he slowly shook his head. "No!"
"First, you seized it by force in public! Second, you rashly probed others! Third, when you realized that you had kicked an iron plate, you pretended to be arrogant and used benefits to tempt me!
"In short, you are harboring evil intentions!"
Wu Ming's gaze seemed to see through everything, and there was a mocking smile in his eyes. "If you had begged me nicely before, I might have agreed, but now, I will absolutely not allow it!"
In truth, all of this was just an excuse!
Hou Yong's matter was related to Jia Kongming's inheritance, so how could he give it to someone else?
This girl was rude and unreasonable, and she bullied the weak and feared the strong. Even if she had tried to persuade him in the beginning, Wu Ming would definitely not have agreed.
Sure enough, when he pointed out all of this, Hou Yong was not a fool. His expression changed slightly, and he hid behind Wu Ming.
Seeing this, the girl's face finally became completely gloomy.
"Let's go!"
Wu Ming could not be bothered with her, and he directly pulled Hou Yong and quickly disappeared at the corner of the street.
"Miss …"
The servant and the big man came forward, and slightly bowed.
"This person … is very strange …"
The girl's eyes seemed to be filled with confusion. "My 'Star Eyes' just told me that this trip to Flying Fish Waterfall will have an amazing harvest, and the key is that young man … Unfortunately, 'Star Eyes' has not been completely upgraded, and can only occasionally have a flash of inspiration, so it cannot tell me the details …"
She took the handkerchief from the servant, and gently wiped it under the thin veil. A light breeze passed by, and one could vaguely see her delicate skin and cherry-like red lips.
"Ah …"
The servant took the handkerchief and exclaimed, looking at the dark red on it. "Miss, you're injured!"
"It's just a small injury …"
The girl looked in the direction in which Wu Ming had left, and her expression became extremely grave. "That spirit controller just now seems to be even more important than that young man … At first glance, I actually thought that he was an ordinary person, but only after the backlash did I realize that he is unfathomable! He is definitely not as simple as an ordinary soldier-level spirit controller … "
"Then won't there be many variables in this operation?"
The big man's expression changed, and he seemed to be very confident in the girl's unique ability. He gestured, "Do you want me to follow them?"
"Don't do anything for now …"
The girl's eyes narrowed slightly, and traces of starlight seemed to penetrate the netherworld …
…
"That girl and the servant just now don't seem to be from the Flame Continent …"
After returning to the Righteous Chivalry Association, Wu Ming suddenly smiled. "I'm afraid … they are from the Star Moon Empire of the Wind Continent? The Star Spirit Divination of this empire is very famous, but after the great chaos, they were destroyed in the first wave … "
"Someone actually came at this time? Did they predict something?"
He had a pensive look on his face.
At this moment, Lu Mei and Hou Yong suddenly came in together, their faces wild with joy. "My lord … the fishing season! The great fishing season is coming … "
"Oh?"
When Wu Ming walked out of the room, he could see that the entire Righteous Chivalry Association was bustling with people.
