Zi Xuan Grass, a fifth-grade medicinal material.

It was the main ingredient for making the fifth-grade Po Ling Pill and Dou Ling Pill.

Like the Dou Ling Pill, the Po Ling Pill was also a Peak Fifth-Grade Pill.

The only difference was that the two pills had different effects.

The Dou Ling Pill could raise a Dou Wang expert's cultivation by one star directly, with no side effects.

The Po Ling Pill, on the other hand, increased the chance of a Dou Ling breaking through to become a Dou Wang.

Whether it was the Dou Ling Pill or the Po Ling Pill, both were pills that Dongfang Chen urgently needed at the moment.

But he hadn't obtained Zi Xuan Grass, the main ingredient for both pills, through any of his previous sign-in rewards.

So Dongfang Chen planned to try his luck in the Full-Time Magician World.

Although the sign-in rewards had been upgraded and he might now be able to get Zi Xuan Grass from the Sign-in Spot, there was still too much uncertainty.

Since Qingtian Hunter Club had sent him good news, Dongfang Chen had no reason not to go and take a look.

Of course, whether it really was Zi Xuan Grass remained to be seen.

After all, he had only described its appearance and habitat to them.

The Full-Time Magician World and the Dou Qi Continent were very different.

It was possible that a medicinal plant with the same appearance had completely different medicinal properties.

Qingtian Hunter Club wasn't far from the place Dongfang Chen had just bought.

It was only two streets away.

It would take just ten minutes to walk there at a leisurely pace.

After he crossed two streets, the style of the roads and buildings around him changed abruptly.

The street where Dongfang Chen's villa stood was thoroughly urban and modern.

This street, however, was an old one with a strong sense of history.

At the end of the street, the sign for Qingtian Hunter Club creaked softly in the wind.

Dongfang Chen walked over.

At the shop entrance, a little girl with twin tails was sitting on a stool, playing with a laptop.

Because she was so short, her little legs dangled in the air, swinging back and forth.

"Are you here to hire us? Our starting price is three hundred thousand. The price varies according to the difficulty of the commission, and it only goes up."

Her voice rang as clearly as a silver bell. She was adorable.

"I'm the client. I sent your Hunter Station a commission online earlier."

"An online commission?" Lingling, who had been playing with her laptop, suddenly looked up.

Qingtian Hunter Club did accept commissions online, but most were from old clients or members.

After all, there were too many scammers these days.

As an established Hunter Station, Qingtian Hunter Club didn't offer its online services to just anyone.

A new client they'd never met wanted to place a commission? Sure, they could come in person or get an introduction from someone the Hunter Station knew.

Lingling looked Dongfang Chen up and down as if she thought he was a scammer.

"Our Hunter Station's online commissions are only for old clients or members. You look unfamiliar to me."

The moment he saw the little girl, the system began bombarding him with notifications.

[Beep! The host has encountered Zi Yan. The Zi Yan acquaintance quest has now been issued!]

[Beep! The system has detected...]

Zi Yan?

Dongfang Chen looked at her.

He knew the name of this twin-tailed girl.

The girl was called Leng Lingling. She was Leng Qing's younger sister and the granddaughter of Old Man Bao, the founder of Qingtian Hunter Club.

But since the system said she was Zi Yan... he'd just treat her as Zi Yan for now.

"My name is Dongfang Chen. I did send your Hunter Station a commission online. Leng Qing recommended you to me."

After thinking it over, Dongfang Chen took out the Qingtian Hunter Club membership card that Leng Qing had given him in Bocheng.

Back in Bocheng, Dongfang Chen and Leng Qing had exchanged names. Unfortunately, Leng Qing didn't seem to be the Original Work's female lead recognized by the system, so he hadn't triggered any quests.

But he hadn't expected the system to identify Leng Qing's younger sister, Leng Lingling, as Zi Yan.

Dongfang Chen was just about to exchange names with Lingling.

Lingling took the card with a doubtful look and examined it.

It really was a Qingtian Hunter Club Membership Card.

Only a handful of people at the Hunter Station had one, including her grandfather and sister.

"All right, it looks like my sister really did recommend you."

Lingling jumped down from the stool. Her little feet made a sharp slap as they hit the ground.

"We've only accepted one commission online recently. Are you the client who asked us to find Mo Yu Grass?"

Mo Yu Grass? Zi Xuan Grass?

Dongfang Chen understood at once.

They called it something different. He had used the name Zi Xuan Grass from the Dou Qi Continent.

Lingling was using the local name.

"Yes. Have you found any Zi... Mo Yu Grass?"

"It's not that simple."

Lingling pursed her lips.

"Never mind. Come inside and we'll discuss it."

Then Lingling called into the house, "Grandpa, that Fat Sheep from the online commission is here!"

F-Fat Sheep?

Dongfang Chen's mouth twitched.

He had indeed offered Qingtian Hunter Club a high price to find Zi Xuan Grass. After all, he wasn't short on money, and a high price might motivate them.

But was it really appropriate to call him a Fat Sheep to his face?

"Heh-heh, Lingling, don't put it that way. He was recommended by your sister, after all."

A somewhat weathered but still booming voice came from inside.

"Come on in, young man."

Dongfang Chen followed Lingling into the shop and met Old Man Bao, the founder of Qingtian Hunter Club.

At first glance, he looked no different from an ordinary old man, except that he was in better shape and had a stronger voice.

But Dongfang Chen knew that Old Man Bao's real name was Song Qiming. Like Dean Xiao of Mingzhu Academy, he was an out-and-out Forbidden Curse Mage.

In all the time since crossing into this world, Dongfang Chen had never seen a Forbidden Curse Mage in action.

He had no idea whether Dou Kings and Dou Emperors were stronger or weaker than Forbidden Curse Mages.

But even Forbidden Curse Mages varied in strength.

Powerful Forbidden Curse Mages like Dean Xiao and Old Man Bao, who could use multiple elements, were definitely much stronger than Dou Kings and Dou Emperors.

Weaker Forbidden Curse Mages might not even be able to cast a complete Forbidden Curse.

"You're Dongfang Chen, the one Leng Qing mentioned, right? It's the first time I've seen Leng Qing think so highly of a young man."

Old Man Bao looked at Dongfang Chen with clouded eyes.

Dongfang Chen paused.

He and Leng Qing hadn't interacted much, really. He'd only given her a few healing pills. Was that enough for her to think so highly of him?

"Is Chief Judge Leng Qing here? Is she not at the shop?"

"My sister had a mission from the Judgment Department and went out of town. I'm handling your commission." Lingling's voice came from beside them.

Dongfang Chen looked at Lingling.

Lingling thought he didn't trust her because she was young, so she gave a cold snort.

"Hmph! Don't doubt my abilities. I may be young, but I'm already a Hunter Master!"

Lingling pulled a Hunter Master Emblem from the Hunter Union out of her pocket.

Dongfang Chen gave an awkward laugh. "I never doubted your abilities. Qingtian Hunter Club is one of the best Hunter Stations in the country, after all. You wouldn't do anything to ruin your own reputation."

After Dongfang Chen affirmed her, Lingling gave an arrogant little snort.

"Hmph! At least you know what you're talking about!"

"Anyway, let's talk about my commission. Have you found any Zi... Mo Yu Grass?"
