Granted that the Cave Wolves Mercenary Corps wouldn’t drink or eat during their mission, they would still need at least six or seven years to earn that

amount.

When they were expecting nothing in return but the other side had willingly gave something in return, their hearts would began to feel a little bit of

grat.i.tude towards them. This was the case for a lot of people.

At the bottom of their hearts, the six wolves didn’t feel any more reluctance toward Shen Yanxiao.

They were very thankful for everything Shen Yanxiao had done.

After Du Lang drank the Master potions, his face gradually turned good. Demon Wolf called a doctor to check Du Lang and according to what the doctor

said, Du Lang wasn’t in any critical situation anymore and just need to rest for a while, and that he would probably wake up the day after tomorrow.

Shen Yanxiao didn’t leave Black City. This time, she had some responsibilities for the current plight of Cave Wolves Mercenary Corps. So she decided to

wait for Du Lang to wake up before she leave.

Besides, she was also very concern about the location of the Skeleton Flower.

She didn’t have much time left before the start of the tournament. Without it, she couldn’t improve her abilities to the next level. Every time, she would

feel that her ability was only one step away from the next one yet no matter what she did, she couldn’t take the last step to reach it.

All of this was because of the seal.

The only way she could unlock the seal before the compet.i.tion was to nd

the Skeleton Flower!

After leaving the Cave Wolves Mercenary Corps, Shen Yanxiao went to the hotel where Vermillion Bird was checked in. Before leaving, Shen Yanxiao gave

the address of the hotel to Vicious Wolf so he could inform her when Du Lang woke up.

However, while Shen Yanxiao was walking to the main street where the hotel was, she saw a black smoke oating

out of the hotel’s door.

Shen Yanxiao’s heart was immediately ooded

by an ominous foreboding.

Through the smoke, Shen Yanxiao entered the hotel and saw a huge mess in the rst

oor;

red ames

were burning the hotel shop. The owner was

desperately leading a group of men to get waters and extinguish the re.

After seeing Shen Yanxiao’s gure,

the owner who was busy extinguis.h.i.+ng the re

immediately pounced on her like a tiger.

“Guest! Please do me a favor and let your friend live in another place! My small business can’t aord

this. I won’t charge you anymore for staying in!” The

owner was miserably clinging on Shen Yanxiao’s sleeve with tears and snot on his face. It wasn’t any dierent

from lamenting to the heavens and

knocking one’s head on the ground.

Shen Yanxiao mouth was twitching, she had a hunch that those two were involved in the re

in the rst

oor.

After appeasing the tragic look of the owner, Shen Yanxiao walked towards the room on the second oor.

Kicking the door open, Shen Yanxiao narrowed her eyes and searched for the two individuals in the small room.

Vermillion Bird was suspended in the air, his hands pinching the body of the silly Phoenix and his face had a dumbfounded expression when he saw

Shen Yanxiao.

The silly small Phoenix struggled to utter

in the air with its two small wings, but the moment Shen Yanxiao appeared, all movements had stopped; his

uttering

wings froze sti

mid air.

Shen Yanxiao’s eyebrow raised, her expression was twitching as she looked at this tiny ball that was still barely one year old. Slowly, her feet went inside

the room, and then a sound of the door locking came after.

Trailing behind Shen Yanxiao was the owner who looked confusedly at the closed door, in the next second he suddenly heard a voice of a young kid

wailing like a ghost and howling like a wolf.

“You… let me explain … Hey! Let me explain! Do not … Stop pulling my ears! -You put… Ah! Ah!”

When the owner heard these sounds of wailing, fear had formed and spread in his heart. He quickly swallowed his saliva and went back downstairs to

continue extinguis.h.i.+ng the fire.
