Thinking about it carefully, this is the normal situation. If you could obtain precious materials by simply hunting a monster, wouldn't pills and magical artifacts be commonplace by now?
If materials for alchemy and weapon crafting are not scarce, would elixirs and magical artifacts still be so precious?
However, killing so many Kazekage and Blue Wolves last night did have its benefits.
The caravan obtained a large amount of Wind Shadow Green Wolf meat, and Lin Baishan and his guards were sitting around the campfire, enjoying their meal.
The guards ate with their mouths glistening with oil, exclaiming how delicious it was.
"If only we had a few shots of strong liquor right now, that would be wonderful," one of the guards remarked.
"No alcohol is allowed during the mission," Lin Baishan said sternly.
"I was just saying. Besides, there's no alcohol in the convoy. Even if I wanted to drink, I wouldn't have any," the guard laughed.
Lin Baishan handed the large piece of roasted wolf meat to the guard.
"Go and give this piece of wolf meat to Ye Feng," Lin Baishan said.
"Give it to him? Why should he!" The guard stood up and said, clearly displeased.
The other guards also showed displeasure.
"Yes, Captain, we fought the wolves to the death last night, but that kid hid in the car the whole time and didn't come down to help. We've already been very lenient by not holding him accountable, and now you want to send him wolf meat? I don't agree! I won't accept it!"
"That's right, I disagree too!"
"That guy is an ingrate. He's lucky to have a pancake to eat; he won't get any wolf meat!"
Lin Baishan glared at the guards and said in a more serious tone, "It's just a little wolf meat. What difference would it make if we gave it to him? We loaded a whole cart with wolf meat. We can't possibly finish it all on the road. It'll go bad in a few days."
"I won't give it to him even if it stinks!" the guard said again.
"This is an order!" Lin Baishan roared.
The guard looked unwilling, but he eventually nodded and accepted Lin Baishan's order to deliver the wolf meat to Ye Feng.
"You got off easy, kid."
The guard tossed the wolf meat into Ye Feng's hand, glanced at him disdainfully, and strode away.
Night Breeze chuckled, shook his head, and then took a bite of roasted wolf meat.
Hmm, those guards are pretty good at grilling meat... Night Wind thought to himself.
The convoy set off again, heading towards Lingluo City.
Li Mingzhu visited Yefeng once, and the maid named Xiao Lü also frequently came to Yefeng's place.
Before I knew it, it was afternoon.
Ye Feng glanced at Xiao Lü, the maid who was sitting in the carriage with her knees drawn up to her chest, and asked with a smile, "Why aren't you keeping your mistress company?"
"Master and Miss are together, so I don't get a chance to speak in front of Master. It's so boring," Xiao Lü said cheerfully.
"How talkative you are!" Ye Feng laughed.
"Let me tell you, I am..."
Little Green kept talking nonstop, making Night Breeze's head ache.
"We encountered some trouble this time when we went to Baiyue City to buy goods!" Xiao Lü said.
"Encountering trouble?" Ye Feng became somewhat curious.
Xiao Lü nodded and said, "There is a small sect in Baiyue City called the Heavenly Fire Sect."
"The Heavenly Fire Sect has about a hundred members in total. The sect leader is named Chen Yiran, a martial arts master at the ninth level of the Separation and Union Realm. Chen Yiran's beloved son is named Chen Jiacheng, a martial arts master at the early stage of the Separation and Union Realm."
"My young lady took me shopping for rouge in Baiyue City, and before we knew it, we ran into Chen Jiacheng, the young master of the Tianhuo Sect. I never expected that Chen Jiacheng would take a fancy to my young lady and want her to marry him."
Little Green rambled on and on, looking resentful.
"Did your young lady agree?" Ye Feng asked with a smile.
"Of course not, because that Chen Jiacheng is really ugly, and he's both ugly and fat! Most importantly, he's a bad person. Relying on his father being the leader of the Tianhuo Sect, he acts like a tyrant in Baiyue City, and he's done a lot of things like forcibly taking women from the streets," Xiao Lü said indignantly.
"Then how did you escape?" Ye Feng asked again.
Xiao Lü chuckled and said, "I'm the clever one! I told Chen Jiacheng that my young lady was willing to marry him, but she had to go back and discuss it with the master, and Chen Jiacheng agreed."
"Just as the master had acquired enough goods, after the young lady and I returned to the caravan, he immediately took us away from Baiyue City. Chen Jiacheng must be furious right now, but even if he's angry, it's no use!"
After saying that, Xiao Lü put her hands on her hips with a proud expression on her face.
However, at that moment, a large bird burning with crimson flames flew down from the sky and hovered in the air in front of the convoy.
A middle-aged man and an ugly, fat young man were standing on the fiery bird.
Who else could it be but Chen Yiran, the leader of the Tianhuo Sect in Baiyue City, and his beloved son Chen Jiacheng!
"Li Mingzhu, how dare you lie to me!"
Chen Jiacheng roared, his face full of hatred.
Xiao Lü was immediately terrified and turned pale, while Lin Baishan and the other guards were all on high alert.
Inside the first carriage, Li Chang'an and Li Mingzhu's expressions changed drastically.
"This is really bad," Li Chang'an said in a panic.
Chen Yiran is at the ninth level of the Separation and Union Realm, while Chen Jiacheng is at the initial stage of the Separation and Union Realm.
The strongest martial artist in the caravan, the captain of the guards, Lin Baishan, was only at the early stage of the Kaiyuan Realm.
There's no way to fight this!
Even if all the guards rushed at him, they couldn't defeat Chen Yiran with just one hand!
"Grandpa, it's my fault. I've dragged our caravan down with me," Li Mingzhu said with a bitter expression.
"This is not your fault, don't blame yourself."
Li Chang'an took a deep breath, got off the carriage, and strode towards the giant firebird.
"Master, it's dangerous!" Lin Baishan quickly warned.
Li Chang'an said with a wry smile, "Captain Lin, if Sect Leader Chen and Young Master Chen are determined to kill us, we have no power to resist. Even if I hide in the carriage, I will not be safe."
Hearing Li Chang'an's words, Lin Baishan sighed and nodded helplessly.
Meanwhile, Chen Yiran on the Flaming Bird laughed loudly: "I didn't expect you, Li Chang'an, to have such self-awareness! Since you know you can't fight me, why did you still run away with your granddaughter? Did your granddaughter suffer by marrying my son?!"
"Sect Leader Chen, my granddaughter truly has no feelings for Young Master Chen. As the saying goes, a forced relationship is never sweet..."
Before Li Chang'an could finish speaking, Chen Yiran raised his hand and unleashed a fireball.
The fireball shot over, but it didn't hit Li Chang'an; instead, it struck the ground in front of him.
Bang!
The fireball exploded, sending up a large amount of dirt.
As a result, Li Chang'an was covered in dirt and looked extremely disheveled.
It was obvious that Chen Yiran did not intend to injure Li Chang'an; he was simply giving Li Chang'an a warning, or rather, a humiliation.
