.

Hundreds of cultivators were gathered on the deck of Xue Cheng’s ship.

They talked to each other in high spirits.

“The hunting season is over! I miss the spring flowers!”

“I’ve finally killed enough wolf demons to avenge my dead brother’s death! Hahahahahaha!!!”

“This young master has killed 108 demon beasts! With immediate effect, the might of my Extreme Star Divine Sword Sect will resound throughout the Lizhou Prefecture!!!”

“My sword, the tomb of the demons! I have already killed 300 demons, the rise of the human race can be expected!”

“I’ll be rich next time!!!”

***

“Quiet!”

Xue Yuanshan’s loud voice reached everyone’s ears.

After everyone hushed up and quieted down.

Xue Yuanshan worded some words to sum up the speech for this hunting season.

“This season has been the best one I have ever seen for you all.”

“You have experienced the ferocity and cunning of demon beasts.”

“You have understood the importance of unity against the demons.”

“You have learnt the truth that money and wealth are external to you, but fame and fortune are spent in the mirror.”

“Hunting demonic beasts is supposed to be a matter of both opportunity and risk.”

“Some people gain and some lose, no more than that.”

“But no matter what, by killing demonic beasts, you are all contributing to Xue City, the Southern Realm, Lizhou, and even the entire Kyushu Continent!”

Finished a long speech.

“Alright, this hunting season, it’s officially over, let’s all disperse, we’re ready to take off.”

“Oh wait, before we return to Xue City, this City Lord has one more person to reward heavily!”

Xue Yuanshan turned his head and looked at Ling Aotian with a smile.

Ling Aotian nodded his head in agreement.

He stepped out with his head held high and stood level with Xue Yuanshan, facing the hundreds of cultivators directly.

Although among these hundreds of cultivators, there were many cultivation levels higher than his.

However, Ling Aotian was not at all timid. Instead, he even looked slightly arrogant.

When Xue Yuanshan saw this, he secretly nodded his head: this son seemed to be more confident after five days of hunting, not bad.

Then to the group of cultivators, he said.

“As I said before, there is a demon army stronghold hidden inside the Demon Beast Mountain Range with unknown intentions, if any of you can uncover it, the City Lord’s Palace will have a heavy reward.”

He glanced at Ling Aotian and said appreciatively.

“And this Young Master Ling Aotian, he managed to uncover the stronghold of the Shahe Demon Army with just his own strength!

“At the Gathering Spirit realm, he didn’t just kill several Enlightening Realms demons”.

“He even dared to face the Transformation Realm’s Sha Wuwen head-on, undaunted by life and death, such a feat by Young Master Ling deserves the admiration of us all!”

“He, is the pride of our Xue City!”

Oooowww…!

After Xue Yuanshan finished speaking, everyone erupted.

Their gazes were like magnetic iron, instantly sucked onto Ling Aotian’s body.

“This child has actually found out the stronghold of the Shahe Demon Army?!”

“That’s something that even the people from the Dark Night Tower failed to uncover!!!”

“At the Gathering Spirit realm, he actually killed several Enlightened Realm sand bugs?!”

“He even dared to face a Demon Cultivator of the Transformation Realm straight on!!!”

“So powerful!!!”

“So strong!!!”

“I want to marry him!!!”

“I want his child!!!”

“I will marry him even if I don’t change my sex!!!”

Listening to the crowd of cultivators’ astonished admiration.

The corners of Ling Aotian’s mouth turned up, revealing a delightful evil smile.

He couldn’t help but look back at Xue Menghan, wanting to share his pleasure with her.

However, Xue Menghan did not even spare him a glance. Instead, her arms were tracing through the air.

Also pouting in her little mouth, she muttered.

“That bastard Jiang Mu, why hasn’t he updated yet, is he sleeping, hmph.”

The expression looked as if it was dissatisfied.

Was it because someone said they wanted to marry me, so Menghan felt dissatisfied?

Ling Aotian shook his head and laughed.

He didn’t think that this was very likely. After all, it was still early for the two of them to get into a relationship.

More likely, it was because the hunting season was over and she hadn’t had enough fun yet, so she was feeling discontent.

After all, she was so delicate and innocent, lively and playful.

“Since it was Young Master Ling Aotian who found the demon stronghold, then, this City Lord will keep his promise and give a heavy reward to Young Master Ling!”

Xue Yuanshan took out a token from his Space ring.

The front side of the token was white, engraved with the design of a box.

The reverse side was black, with the design of an ancient building engraved on it.

Someone recognized this token and exclaimed out of breath.

“It’s the Dark Night Building’s Order of the ‘Sound of the Day and Sun’!”

“The Sound of Day and Sun token?”

“What kind of token is that?”

“—.”

There was a lot of chatter among the crowd.

Xue Yuanshan coughed lightly and explained. “The Order of the Sound of Day and Sun is a special token made by the Dark Night House.”

“Those who hold the token will not only enjoy all kinds of preferential treatment from the Dark Night House.”

“Most importantly, they can also participate in the ruins exploration held by the Dark Night House!”

Xue Yuanshan smiled as he handed the token to Ling Aotian.

“Young Master Ling, congratulations, you have gained the qualification to enter the Voice of the Day Sun in three days’ time.”

“Thank you, Lord City Master!”

Ling Aotian gladly accepted the token.

He had heard about it from Juan’er before.

The Voice of the Day Sun was a ruin.

The teleportation door of this ruin could only be opened by the Dark Night House.

The treasures inside the ruins were innumerable.

As long as you find it, it belongs to you!

Ling Aotian was delighted. I never thought that participating in such a hunting season would be worthwhile.

Apart from helping his master recover some strength, taking a small revenge for the destruction of his village, being regarded and invested in by Han Yuqing, touching the threshold of the Qi Sea realm… And so on.

Surprisingly, he had also obtained the qualification to participate in the ruins!

Leaving aside the treasures inside the ruins, he definitely had the confidence to break through to the Qi Sea realm in the ruins!

Because of his excellent performance, the Dark Night House Master, one of the three beauties of Xue City, Lu Chorou may even favor him.

The more Ling Aotian thought about it, the happier he became, and his eyes seemed to glow.

He would share this happiness with Xue Menghan!

“Menghan! Today I’m high…”

“Finallyyy!”

Xue Menghan suddenly shouted with joy.

She saw that the diary had finally being updated.

Ling Aotian, however, thought that Xue Menghan was overjoyed with his achievements.

So he couldn’t help but laugh out loud:.

“Hahahahaha!”

He handed the token to Xue Menghan and proudly said.

“Look, Menghan! This is…”

“I’m going back to my room first!”

Xue Menghan did not want to read the diary in front of so many people.

So she hurriedly dropped the sentence.

She ran back to her room like a gust of wind.

This caused Ling Aotian’s hand holding the token to freeze in the wind.

His face was half proud and half embarrassed.

Bang!

After Xue Menghan closed the door.

Sitting right in front of the table, she read the diary.

[March 12, sunny and cloudy.]

[Not normal, not normal.]

[Ding Nanrong is acting very strange. I accidentally fell asleep in her bed and slept all day and night.]

[She didn’t throw me out?, I remember once in the past, I accidentally fell asleep in her bed, only to wake up and find myself falling off a cliff.]

“Pfft! Falling off a cliff ahahahahahahaha! Serves you right.”

Xue Menghan couldn’t help but laugh out loud.

(TL: Bruh, she’s already fallen, just doesn’t know)
