After escaping from the city lord's mansion successfully drake went back to his room and slept peacefully that night. After waking up in the morning the first thing he did was to check the system screen for any new mission.
And there it is... A brand new mission is already waiting for him.

Even though drake did not expect any easy mission from the system he still became angry when he saw the mission information on the system screen.
"Nine Petal Amorous Rose ?"
Who doesn't know about this exotic flower which is especially used by men as a gift for their female Dao partners? This flower when made into powder and taken orally it would greatly stimulate their feeling for each other and also improves their stamina for making love.
Is this system deliberately trying to bring him trouble? How would he be able to escape if he angered the sect master? Getting expelled from the sect should be considered a very light punishment if he got caught by her.
Moreover, Sect leader Lady Han Mingxia is said to have been madly in love with the Iron Palm Sect leader's brother. As per the latest information they would soon be consummating their marriage. They were being praised as a match made in Heaven and after their marriage, both sects are guaranteed to raise in power.
"Anyhow what are these fate points ?" drake pondered about it for some time but couldn't figure out anything.
"Let's leave it for later. This time the punishment seems to be a bit better. But still surviving in the core area of the dark wood forest with my cultivation base would also spell certain death.
Anyway, there are still five days to complete this mission. I should first attend today's cultivation and swordplay classes before coming up with a plan." Drake thought as he got down the bed and started getting ready to attend the daily cultivation classes.
After transmigrating to this place drake never tried cultivating, Also back on earth he was a big fan of Chinese swordplay movies. So after getting ready he headed straight towards the outer sect teaching hall with some excitement in his eyes.
While he was walking drake suddenly felt something as he dodged to the side. A stone has just whizzed past his head while he was barely able to dodge it.
"Hahh brother you missed looser wen, Now you have to keep your promise about the bet" a rather haughty voice sounded.
Drake's eyes traced the direction of the voice as he saw a group of four youths dressed in the outer court disciple dress looking towards him in a derisive manner.
Drake didn't take much time to recognize them from the previous memories of this body. They were the bullies who used to always tease and make things difficult for the previous wen dingxiang.
Wen dingxiang had been stuck in the Qi condensation second stage for over ten years. He was literally the famous trash of this sect and most of the kids who had joined the sect with him have improved their cultivation and entered the inner court while he was left helpless with his trash potential for cultivation.
But what drake admired in wen dingxiang is that despite him being an orphan without any background and also being one with a trash potential, Wen dingxiang had never once given up in trying to put in double effort to change his fate.
"Hey Wen dick-king what are you getting all emotional about quickly get over here and crawl between my legs." the one that was leading the group who is at the mid-Qi condensation fourth stage shouted condescendingly.
As drake heard their comments all the previous humiliating memories of Wen Dingxiang started flashing in his mind as he slowly clenched his fist tight.
"God damn it !! I swear to brother wen's soul that I will make you all pay today for what you people had done to him." Drake swore inwardly as he eyed the youths before him in anger.
"What? Not coming? I guess it has been some time since I had beaten some sense into you" the arrogant youth leading group shouted as he started walking towards drake while cracking his knuckles.
"You want to beat sense into me? Huh... Let me make your senses senseless." drake sneered and said as he willed for the Secret Santa outfit while simultaneously activating the invisibility effect.
The arrogant youth suddenly stopped in his tracks while his eyes almost popped out of their sockets as he saw the youth who is supposed to be famous trash of the whole sect suddenly vanish into thin air.
Drake didn't waste any time as he walked up to him and started raining punches on the handsome face of this leader of the bully gang. Soon screams started to resound as remaining youths became scared when they saw their leader's face started to become a bloody pulp.
Soon the youth couldn't take it anymore and fell down with his teeth in hand. Drake had no intention to spare a single one in this group. And so he started hitting the other three accomplices until they also started crying while calling for their mothers and fathers.
Recollecting the humiliations Wen dingxiang had to swallow all these years he started to remove their clothes one by one. If anyone resisted he would punch them in the nose until they submitted. Once he was done, all the four youths were lying naked on the ground with bloody noses and fractured bones while begging for mercy.
Drake slowly took out the specially made pepper spray bottles one by one from the system storage space and started mercilessly spraying on them until their bloody noses, eyes, and mouth started fuming as they began rolling on the ground and started screaming like pigs which are being slaughtered.
After almost emptying his pepper bottle supply and also nearly reaching the time limit for invisibility effect drake reluctantly put away the Secret Santa outfit and suddenly appeared before the despairing youths scaring them once again.
"You better pray to God that you wouldn't come across me ever again," Drake said as he kicked the leader once again as he turned back to head to the teaching hall.
"Hahh.. that felt good, this is the least I can do for you brother Wen" Drake whispered as he walked.
Once he reached the teaching hall he noticed that only half of the place is filled. He found a corner to sit in and waited for the class to start. Once everyone came, A middle-aged elder slowly entered the room and started giving the lecture.
He explained the various important topics on cultivation like for example the topic called 'The top ten common mistakes in cultivation which you wouldn't want to make' which he explained focused mainly on the common reasons for suffering Qi deviation. As drake listened attentively and got absorbed by the lecture it soon became afternoon.
In the afternoon a female elder explained briefly about the basic sword moves and then allowed students to form pairs and dual with each other with wooden swords while she would correct the students on their mistakes from time to time. As the evening came the class ended for the day as drake returned to his room satisfied.
Once he reached his room he remembered the last-minute appointment he had made with the burly Huang as he quickly took a bath, got dressed nicely, and headed for the bright lady inn. It is the most famous and expensive inn in this city so the moment Huang changpu offered that he would pay for everything, he had decided to freeload.
He also liked brother Huang's carefree character very much. Once he reached the inn drake asked the receptionist about the table which Huang changpu had booked.
As he walked towards the table and saw the familiar figure sitting a warm smile appeared on his face.
"As expected you are not so simple"
The owner of the voice is none other than Huang changpu. He was already surrounded by huge platers of various kinds of exotic food items.
"We meet again brother Huang," drake said while continuing to smile as he took the opposite seat.
"Haha, I knew you would come, brother. Come let's enjoy the wine and talk" burly Huang said as they both clinked their wine jugs as they started chatting and laughing.
As they talked some of the things that puzzled drake about burly Huang got cleared. Apparently, when the burly Huang was not so burly he came across an old cultivator who was severely injured and was getting chased by his enemies.
The old cultivator allegedly claimed that he had created a body cultivation technique specialized for the thief path when he was a youth. He even kept improving it his whole life while stealing from various bigshots and thereby kept accumulating so much wealth.
Gradually many powerful cultivators have set their eyes on him but nobody was able to even see his shadow. But over time he became old and his capabilities started to deteriorate. Just a few days before they met, The old man was ambushed by many powerful cultivators and he barely managed to escape with severe injuries.
The old man knew that he was going to die as he was being chased relentlessly so he intended to pass his inheritance to a fated person. It included both his cultivation techniques and a map for the location of his wealth.
