The morning sun illuminated the entire room.
Ye Cangtian slowly opened his eyes, stretched his limbs, and then walked out of the room.
In the hall, Jian Wusheng was already having breakfast and had prepared a portion for Ye Cangtian.
Ye Cangtian didn't stand on ceremony and sat down to eat.
"Senior..."
After a few bites of breakfast, Ye Cangtian felt he should explain last night's events to Jian Wusheng.
But as soon as he spoke, Jian Wusheng interrupted him with a hand gesture: "It's alright, I know about last night's events, you don't need to say anything."
"Senior, you..."
"No need to ask, I knew when you went out yesterday, and I followed you all the way, witnessing everything..."
As Ye Cangtian was about to speak again, he was interrupted by Jian Wusheng.
This time, Ye Cangtian was speechless. No matter how slow he was, he understood the reason.
It must have been that he had been babbling yesterday, and the other party had seen it, which was why Jian Wusheng didn't want him to speak.
Damn it, he was embarrassed after all.
It seemed he couldn't be so casual in the future.
Muttering to himself, Ye Cangtian glanced at Jian Wusheng and said at the fastest speed:
"Senior, I'm not that kind of person, you must believe me. You know me better than others, don't you?"
"I understand, I understand."
Jian Wusheng kept gesturing to stop him. Although he said so, his expression seemed to say, "I don't understand you at all!"
"..."
Seeing this, Ye Cangtian felt like crying but had no tears.
He finally gave up explaining and ate his meal quietly.
After the meal.
The two of them tidied up their belongings briefly and then set off in a carriage.
Ye Cangtian thought they were going out of the city this time, but before leaving the city, Jian Wusheng pulled him to the hidden group's guesthouse in Changyang City.
"Senior, why are we coming here?" Ye Cangtian asked, puzzled.
Jian Wusheng glanced at Ye Cangtian and snorted lightly, "Last night you eliminated quite a few people from the Black Wind Sect..."
The Black Wind Sect was notorious for its evil deeds and was deeply detested, so there were many bounty missions related to them.
Although Ye Cangtian did not eliminate the Hall Master Cui Fengxi last night, he had cleared out many members of the Black Wind Sect and destroyed their strongholds.
This was considered a contribution to removing a tumor from Changyang City, and he could also receive rewards from some bounty missions...
What! There's such a good thing?
Upon hearing this, Ye Cangtian was delighted. Free benefits were not to be refused.
Thus.
Ye Cangtian quickly found the person in charge here, identified himself, and then explained the situation.
In response, the person in charge immediately sent someone to verify.
In about an hour, the person in charge found Ye Cangtian again.
For his actions last night, Ye Cangtian had a total contribution value of 1000 points. Coupled with the previous exploration mission, his total contribution value reached 1200 points.
In addition, there were some mission rewards, totaling 50 medium-sized spirit stones.
Seeing this, Ye Cangtian was stunned.
What was the concept of 50 medium-sized spirit stones?
Even clearing a small ruin might not yield so much.
He had only killed some minor figures and received so many spirit stones and contribution points, which showed how much the major powers hated the Black Wind Sect.
Thinking this, Ye Cangtian smiled. It seemed he should do more good deeds in the future.
Earning spirit stones and contribution points was no worse than exploration missions!
The only drawback was that he needed to submit missions. Even if he could remain anonymous, those with intentions could still find out.
At that time, trouble might come his way.
After a simple rest, Ye Cangtian and Jian Wusheng embarked on their journey again, heading towards Dragon City.
...
After four to five days of continuous travel, the journey was smooth and uneventful, everything was relatively quiet.
Soon, Ye Cangtian and Jian Wusheng arrived at Tingfeng City.
As soon as they reached the gate, the carriage stopped.
Two neat rows of people were already standing there, and a middle-aged man was waiting at the gate, as if expecting someone.
"They still put on such a show here?"
Seeing this scene, Ye Cangtian turned to Jian Wusheng.
In his opinion, the ruins were full of dangers, and it was good enough to survive. Such empty courtesies were completely unnecessary.
"This kind of thing happens everywhere."
Jian Wusheng snorted lightly. It could be heard that he was not very fond of such flattering scenes.
But he was helpless.
Most people fell for this. You couldn't change anything.
Ding! Ding! Ding!
At this moment, the carriage door was knocked, and a servant with a fawning smile bowed to them.
"May I ask if you are Lord Jian Wusheng?"
Ye Cangtian was stunned for a moment, and then a smile appeared on his face.
Just now, Jian Wusheng had been very disdainful of such things, and now someone was using this tactic against him.
"Who are you?"
Jian Wusheng felt slapped in the face. His smile immediately vanished, and his expression became very cold.
"I am a servant of the Hu family in Tingfeng City."
"Our eldest young master knows that Lord Jian Wusheng must be tired from his journey and wants to invite you to rest at his manor. What do you say!"
The servant said obsequiously.
He also specifically indicated that the person standing at the city gate was the eldest young master of the Hu family.
Jian Wusheng glanced in that direction from afar. It was indeed a young master. He was wearing a gray robe and a hair crown, looking very polite.
The eldest young master on the other side seemed to feel his gaze and gave a slight bow towards them.
"I have never met your eldest young master. Perhaps it's best not to."
Jian Wusheng frowned. Not only did he not know the eldest young master, but he had never even heard of the Hu family in Tingfeng City.
"My lord, of course, doesn't know the eldest young master."
"But the eldest young master has always admired your greatness. Hearing that you are passing by, he has specially made preparations."
"We hope you can grace us with your presence."
Upon hearing this, the servant quickly replied.
"Didn't you hear me say no?"
Jian Wusheng's brows furrowed at the servant's incessant chatter, and a faint killing intent flickered in his eyes.
He didn't know the other party and disliked such fanfare, so he naturally didn't want to associate with such people.
The other party, however, was oblivious, which made him very annoyed.
Perhaps seeing Jian Wusheng's anger, the servant quickly bowed and then retreated, likely not wanting to ruin his master's business.
After a while, the young master at the city gate walked over.
"I am Hu Baicang. Greetings, Lord Jian Wusheng."
"The servant was ignorant just now. If I have offended you, please forgive me."
As soon as they met, the man apologized to Jian Wusheng repeatedly.
Jian Wusheng snorted and said, "I don't need to bother with them. Speak, what is it you want from me?"
"To be honest, I do have something to discuss with you..."
Hu Baicang saw that Jian Wusheng's expression was still gloomy, so he quickly told the truth, but before he could finish, he was interrupted by Jian Wusheng's cold snort.
"Hmph! Not interested!"
"Senior, why don't you hear what it is!"
"And our horses need to be changed!"
Ye Cangtian pondered for a moment and advised.
The other party kept pestering him, and seeing that the other party seemed to be in difficulty, it wouldn't hurt to help.
"Yes, yes, the Hu family has horses to change, and also superior fodder."
"Please, both of you, come to my manor to rest for a while!"
Hu Baicang looked at Ye Cangtian gratefully and quickly replied.
Humph!
Jian Wusheng glared at Ye Cangtian and then closed his eyes, no longer bothering with the matter.
