Mo Ying walked forward and took out two porcelain bottles, passing them over to Xuan Chen: "Xuan Chen, it's all thanks to you risking your life to kill the Goldbiter earlier. These are two bottles of Middle Grade Qi Meridian Pill, the extra bottle can be considered as a bit of gratitude and compensation."

Xuan Chen only took one bottle and said: "Miss Mo, I've already said before, I take the money to do business, there's no need for you to thank me.

As he spoke, he waved the large bundle in his hand.

Zhong Wuliang curled his lips and wanted to say something, but he did not, and could only turn and look elsewhere.

Mo Ying looked at Xuan Chen's casual look, but his eyes were firm. He could only take back the bottle, and revealed a smile: "Since that's the case, then I won't force you."

"Alright, Miss Mo, Young Master Chu, we will take our leave now that things are done." Xuan Chen kept the porcelain bottles in his bosom and said while cupping his hands.

"See you later." Mo Ying and Chu Feng cupped their hands and replied.

Xuan Chen carried his backpack and quickly left with Zhong Wuliang. Mo Ying and the others still had to collect Herba Artemisiae s, so they might not be able to leave in a short while.

As he easily exited the man-eating vine forest, Zhong Wuliang said: "Xuan Chen, that Middle Grade Qi Meridian Pill, Mo Ying will give it to you. You can take it, why be polite with them.

"Our harvest is already pretty good. Why do we need to give others an impression of insatiable greed? It would be better to leave a favor and use it in the future."

said with a faint smile. Without mentioning Chu Feng, Mo Ying was someone who she could befriend, after getting along with for a while, it had given him a deep impression.

"Hehe, you can't have fallen for her, right? I support you, and the moment I saw that Chu Feng, I knew he was not a good guy. Zhong Wuliang laughed, winking his eyes, looking extremely wretched.

Xuan Chen rolled his eyes, and said: "A woman like Mo Ying, your actions are extremely rational, and are not something that ordinary people can move. I will not waste my time thinking about it, you think too much."

Xuan Chen said while stepping on the Spring Thunder Step, his speed was extremely fast.

However, Zhong Wuliang did not give up. He chased after him and continued, "A good girl should be afraid of being harassed by idiots. It's not like you have no chance, you just have to …"

The two kept their heads down as they travelled, rested for two nights on the way, and only when they left the Profound Origin Mountain on the afternoon of the third day did they enter the Black Mountain City two hours later.

Because the Black Mountain City was one of the biggest cities on the island, it produced a large number of carbide and was even more prosperous than the Tianfeng City.

After entering the Black Mountain City, Xuan Chen and Zhong Wuliang went straight to the shop that sold the materials made from fierce beasts, selling the Goldbiter's skin and claws.

The Goldbiter Rat King's fur and fangs sold for fifty thousand silver, and the other forty-three Level One Goldbiter sold for a total of seventy thousand silver. In total, it was sold for one hundred and twenty thousand silver.

On the other hand, Zhong Wuliang did not have that many Goldbiter, because all of them were level one Goldbiter.

After exiting the shop, Zhong Wuliang said: "Xuan Chen, I won't be going with you. I still have some other things."

Xuan Chen nodded and cupped his hands: "Then we will part ways here. If you have time, remember to find me at Iron Stone Town."

"Naturally, we will meet again in the future." Zhong Wuliang cupped his hands, turned and left, and quickly disappeared into the crowd.

Looking at Zhong Wuliang's disappearing figure, Xuan Chen shook his head and turned to leave. He found a weapon store and made another sword sheath for the fish scale sword.

Not long after exiting the weapon shop, Xuan Chen saw an inn called 'Hundred Families Inn' and walked in with large strides.

"Young master, would you like to eat or sleep?" The waiter quickly came up to welcome him.

"Give me a room. Prepare some hot water and some food. Also, help me buy a change of clothes and take them to my room."

Xuan Chen said, as he took out a 5 tael silver note and handed it over to the waiter: "The rest is your tip."

The waitress took the banknotes and excitedly said, "Young Master, this way please. I'll take you to your room first. There is hot water ready and it will be delivered to your room soon."

...

After taking a comfortable hot bath and changing into a new set of clothes, Xuan Chen felt his whole body was refreshed, as if he had lost three kilograms of weight.

Dinner is ready, fried purple feather chicken wings, steamed silver scale bass, honey fire pig's feet, stewed golden turtle, as well as stir-fried sweet bamboo shoots, spicy and sour wild fennel. There were meat and vegetables in the fried stew, although the taste was not as good as Zhong Wuliang's grilled meat, it was still a rare delicacy.

After eating barbecue for three months, Xuan Chen had long grown tired of it. These meals finally gave him a sense of familiarity of returning back to human society.

After eating a hearty meal, Xuan Chen shut his room door and laid on the bed as he slept soundly.

Having stayed in the mountains for nearly three months, it was hard to sleep well at night.

Because the mountain forest at night was even more dangerous, one needed to be extremely vigilant. Furthermore, fighting against ferocious beasts from the front and back, being chased and killed etc., Xuan Chen had already reached his limits.

It was only at noon on the second day that Xuan Chen slowly woke up.

He looked inside and was pleasantly surprised to find that when he woke up, his cultivation had actually broken through to the middle of the third level of the Qi Meridian Realm. Boundless true energy was surging within the elemental pulse.

To Xuan Chen, this result could be said to be unexpected, and was in the process of being cleaned up.

Firstly, he had been constantly battling, which had given him a very strong test and training. Secondly, he did not lack Qi Meridian Pills. With the help of the Low Grade Qi Meridian Pill, his cultivation speed was naturally much faster.

Otherwise, if he were to train step by step, he would need at least a year or two to break through to the middle of the third level.

Xuan Chen poured the items on the bed and rearranged them. A total of 150,000 silver taels were left of the Low Grade Qi Meridian Pill and 15 were left of the Low Grade Qi Meridian Pill. On the other hand, there were 24 of the Middle Grade Qi Meridian Pill and 4 of them were from Huang Yangqiu.

In addition, there were five medicinal jade s and seven Jade Star Flowers. These two were stored in separate wooden boxes, as well as a manual on the Long River Saber Technique.

As for the rest, they were just some random items like Golden Sore Medicine. They weren't worth much money, but their survival in the wild was of great use.

Xuan Chen picked up the blade manual, this was a martial skill of the Huang Family, he could neither cultivate nor sell it, in case anyone found out about it.

"If I knew earlier, I would have given this blade manual to Zhong Wuliang. Perhaps, I might even be able to get some good stuff from him."

Xuan Chen felt that it was a bit of a pity. He held the silver and muttered to himself, "With this money, it's enough to pay off my debt."

After finishing his lunch at the inn, he bought a handsome horse, left Black Mountain City, and followed the official road back to Iron Stone Town.

When passing by the Tianfeng City, Xuan Chen heard that the Huang Family had already withdrawn from the Redstone Mountains, so he re-entered the Redstone Mountains and prepared to retrieve the items that he had previously hidden away. After all, those were items that were worth over a hundred thousand silver taels.

Fortunately, maybe because he had hidden it well enough, or maybe because the time was still short, the items from the two places were still there. If someone found out that it was taken away, then Xuan Chen would really be depressed to death.

A day later, Xuan Chen returned to the Tianfeng City, tied the things on his horse, and then spurred his horse to leave.

Looking at the tall, dark city walls of the Iron Stone Town, Xuan Chen stopped for a moment, then dismounted and walked with his horse.
