Wolf Head Mercenary Group's Third Commander He Meng—Please Collect and Recommend

As long as they joined Ascending Heaven Pavilion, Li Xiao, as their Pavilion Master, naturally would not treat them poorly. Besides, during the recent looting, the magical beasts had brought him a considerable income. He certainly could not let them feel disappointed.

Li Xiao was upright and fair, clearly distinguishing rewards from punishments. Those who rendered merit would naturally be rewarded, while those who made mistakes would likewise have to accept the appropriate punishment.

Without rules, nothing could be accomplished.

The three Tier 5 Magical Beasts happily swallowed the pills and repeatedly kowtowed to Lord Li Xiao in gratitude. Though they could not speak, the intelligence they had developed was no less than that of humans. Naturally, they understood the Pavilion Master's generosity toward them.

Li Xiao nodded. "Keep working hard. After every Auction in the future, this Pavilion Master will give you the same rewards."

Upon hearing this, the four magical beasts worked even harder, practically forgetting to eat and sleep. Their Pavilion Master's words gave them tremendous confidence, making them even more certain that they had followed the right person.

"Linglong, Bing Shuang, each of you choose a magical beast as a mount. When the opportunity arises, I'll raise their grades. That way, you won't lose face."

"Yes, Pavilion Master!"

These magical beasts all possessed great potential. With further cultivation, they would surely become peak-level magical beasts in the future. Even advancing to Tier 8 would not be a problem.

Li Xiao gazed at the slowly rising sun and enjoyed the warmth of its rays. For the past few days, he had spent most of his time in Ascending Heaven Pavilion and rarely came out to stretch his limbs. Now that he finally had nothing to do, he could breathe some fresh air.

To make the scenery even more beautiful, Li Xiao had Niu Meng dig a small stream here and divert spring water from nearby, allowing him to enjoy the sight of flowing water.

Niu Meng worked swiftly. In order to let the Pavilion Master see it as soon as possible, he directly smashed a huge pit into the ground with one punch. Then Bing Shuang and the others constructed it, and before long, Huai River Bamboo Pavilion was complete.

Green mountains, clear waters, peach blossoms—perhaps the days ahead would be even more comfortable.

Li Xiao was quite satisfied. If there were no Auction House, living like this forever would not be so bad. How pleasant.

Misty Cloud Sect.

Yun Yun held the Amethyst Spirit Crystal in her hand, feeling the impulse to meet the Lord of Ascending Heaven Pavilion.

"Teacher, ever since you returned from the Beast Mountain Range, you've been unhappy. Did something happen?"

Nalan Yanran, the young sect leader of the Misty Cloud Sect, strode over and naturally wrapped her arm around her teacher's, pressing her chest against her. "Hehe, Teacher, your disciple just came out of seclusion. I missed you so much."

Yun Yun came back to her senses and lovingly rubbed her head. "Yan Ran, your strength has broken through to the Nine Star Dou Zhe realm. You're only one step away from becoming a Dou Shi. Your progress has been remarkably fast."

Nalan Yanran smiled. "Isn't it all thanks to you? If not for Teacher, your disciple would never have had the chance to advance to Nine Star Dou Zhe."

"By the way, Teacher, Great Elder Yun Leng said you went to the Auction House in the Beast Mountain Range. How was it? Was it fun?"

"Can your disciple go too?"

Yun Yun smiled and used her slender jade finger to tap Nalan Yanran's delicate nose.

"The Beast Mountain Range is extremely dangerous. With your strength, it's best not to go. If anything happens, Teacher won't be able to protect you. Besides, you still have a marriage engagement. You must not be so playful, understand?"

"Oh..." Nalan Yanran pouted. "Your disciple understands."

Yun Yun shook her head, then turned to look at the disciples diligently training outside the great hall. She decided to first send this Amethyst Spirit Crystal to Pill King Gu He and have him refine a pill for her.

Gu He himself understood perfectly well that although he had obtained a Heavenly Flame, without those three items, attempting to absorb it would be no different from playing with fire.

Yet gathering all three of those things was easier said than done. He could only place his hopes on the Ascending Heaven Pavilion Auction House.

A month passed quickly.

Li Xiao's strength had also broken through to Seven Star Dou Zhe. Every time he advanced by one star, he could feel that surging Dou Qi continuously battering against his Eight Extraordinary Meridians. It was extremely peculiar.

However, he did not care.

As long as his strength could increase, it was a good thing. "Not bad. Cultivating inside Ascending Heaven Pavilion is dozens of times faster than outside. No wonder I've advanced so quickly."

Li Xiao sighed. The system really was incredible.

"Come on, come on! That kid might be hiding here."

"Keep up!"

A jumble of footsteps sounded from outside the valley. Before long, more than a dozen mercenaries wearing matching clothes and looking thoroughly vicious hurried inside.

Seeing the scenery around them, expressions of shock could not help appearing on their faces. They had not expected such a wondrous sight to exist within the Beast Mountain Range. How had they never discovered it before?

At the front was a tall, fat man with a bloated face and large ears. His body was covered in flesh, and he appeared to weigh over three hundred jin. Every step he took made the ground tremble.

"Third Commander, this is truly a good place. I think that kid must be hiding here."

"That makes sense." He Meng, the Wolf Head Mercenary Group's third commander, nodded. "Search for him yourselves. Keep your eyes open. The moment that kid makes a move, act immediately."

He Meng shrugged and looked around at the beautiful scenery. If they used this place as a base, it would definitely be excellent.

Just then, a subordinate beside him cried out in alarm. He Meng thought they had found Xiao Yan and hurried over, only to discover not the Wolf Head Mercenary Group's enemy, but two peerlessly beautiful women inside Huai River Bamboo Pavilion in the distance.

At that moment, He Meng, an Eight Star Dou Zhe, felt his entire body tremble. He froze in place, his eyes filled with greed.

Merely seeing their exquisite faces was enough to make him lose control and spill himself.

The others also revealed lewd, greedy expressions. They had not expected to encounter such beauties in this godforsaken place. My god... did we step in dog shit and get lucky? He Meng no longer cared about what was happening to his body. He hurried over, licking his lips, and directly shoved Madam Lan beside him away.

"My god, I... I'm not... dreaming, am I? Two beauties, hehe, I'm He Meng, the Wolf Head Mercenary Group's third commander, an Eight Star Dou Zhe. You... you're so beautiful..."

Bing Shuang coldly glanced at the greedy-eyed He Meng, a trace of disgust appearing in her expression. If the Pavilion Master had not wanted the birds and beasts around them to be able to enter, she would have set up a restriction in the valley long ago.

She had not expected such scum to come.

"Hehe, you two look very delicious, heheh."

Li Xiao said, "I heard you say just now that you're He Meng, the Wolf Head Mercenary Group's third commander?"

He Meng frowned, his face savage. "So what if I am? You little bastard, you're actually together with these two beauties. Do you have a death wish? Get the hell down from there right now!"
