Mors dodges an attack by moving his feet in an elegant, dance-like fashion. Huan, who miss the attack could not help but click her tongue. With her twin daggers in her hands, she is not fast or sneaky enough to catch Mors off guard. Fen, on the other hand, had trouble catching and overpowering Mors.
Even if they are on the same stage, Mors for some reason is way stronger than he is. This friendly match has turned into a competitive one, as the two disciples try to at least leave a scratch on Mor's skin. While they still haven't learned fully the new skills Mors has given them, this has proven to help them in their understanding.
Zhihui on the other hand is sitting next to Ru, teaching her some of the basics of the cultivator world. Keeping a close eye on Mors, Fen, and Huan battle. She knew Mors will win, after all with their cheat-like abilities. There are very few people in the same stage as them that can prove a challenge.
"Huan! Use the shadows around you as cover! Move your hands in such a way that is unpredictable and also quiet."
"Fen, channel your Qi through your body. Think of forging a sword, hitting steel over and over again. Re-forge the sword over and over again till the steel is tenfold more durable and stronger"
"I know!"
The duo screams at Mors as they get ready to attack once again. Fen channels his Qi through his sword, and with quick feet, he reaches in front of Mors. The tip of the sword was dragged across the ground, picking up some dirt. Fen uses his sword like a shovel and picks up dirt, throwing the dirt at Mor's face to blind him.
Using this moment to aim to attack Mor's left leg. Huan on the other hand finally reaches the blind spot and aims her twin daggers toward his neck. Such an attack will render a normal person unable to move. But the difference in their stats can't be easily ignored. As Mors with quick movements turns sideways, crutching as he does.
This allows him to grab Huan right leg, pushing it and making her lose her sense of balance. Then using his Qi, he channels it through his black color spear. Extending the end of the spear with a white-ish projection. He spins his spear around, hitting Fen on the right side of his abdomen. Knocking out the wind in his lungs.
All of this happening too fast for Fen and Huan to really see or react, as the next second both of them fell down to their knees. Huan hits the ground face first and Fen holds his sides as he breathes in.
"Oh, will you look at that, now that is an improvement"
Mors said while looking at Fen, for he has partially activated the skill [Ten-Fold Steel(Sky)], but sadly it was only in the part that he got hit.
"Damn! I thought I had you!"
"By the Celestial Dragon…"
"hehe~ rematch?"
"Hey, you three! Enough for today, we still got to get ready to go to the sect. Get clean up and pack your stuff. We have a wedding to attend"
It has been one week since the party arrives in this village, this week other than training, the couple has been preparing the ground work to move Mors buffing food project to an industrial scale. As of now they only have a small plot of land with some rice in it, the ground has been fed Qi by the five cultivators. This will be their testing field to see how long Qi last in the ground.
-------In Jian City---------
In Jian City, in the inner part, are countless large mansions. Full of luxury and space for their owners. In one of these many mansions, a woman is sitting on a very conferrable leather sofa. The leader is made from a monster called [Cloud Sheep], and the woman is in a light dress. Her chest is mostly exposed and her long bare legs bathing in the cold air that is in this room.
The woman's hair reaches her butt, with bright red roots and yellow color tips. With white skin and sharp yellow eyes. She is a beautiful woman, but she is no ordinal woman. Her hair is a special feature that is commonly seen in the Sun clan. For she is Sun Yu, owner of the [Flying Byrds Company].
Within the Sun clan, only those with profitable businesses are allowed to call themselves direct descendants of their founding ancestors. The paper Yu is looking at threatens to rob her of that title.
"Fucking hell, if this guy sells that invention my whole company will go under. I could also buy it myself and just reconstruct the whole company…."
The woman started to think about the multiple pathways available to her. The only thing that guides her thought process is how much money can she make. After a few couples of minutes of thinking she sighs as she looks at the paper.
"Monsters are really more profitable. Monsters can be trained and self-reform. Their range is a lot higher than the stone. Heihei, deal with this guy"
"Sorry to disappoint you, but your brother isn't here now"
"Who-"
"I recommend you stay still, I don't think you want to lose your pretty neck"
A female voice echo from behind Yu, while a different figure has a sword pressed against her neck. She saw that the sword is grayish in color. As footsteps echo in this room, a female figure made herself known. Wearing beautiful red clothing, that covers large portions of her body. A red mask hid her face.
The woman sits in front of Yu, on the facing sofa. Her tone was low and cold, the aura around her and the person holding the sword a lot stronger than Yu warrior stage aura.
"Ah…I don't know what I did to piss off inner disciples, but I will let you know that I am a direct descendant of the Sun clan. If you don't want trouble with my clan then release me no-"
"Now now, are you sure you are in any position to demand things from us? Should I report to the clan head the assassinations you have done? Wow, killing a little girl because she treated to sue you isn't a nice look"
"How….what the hell are you!?"
"No need to know, now will you work with us or against us?"
"What…have you done to my brother?"
"We just knock him out, he should still be breathing"
Yu looks around her, sighing as she knew she had no chance to escape.
"What do you want?"
"Your assassination attempt on the Jinshu Zedog would not happen. You will then buy his product and hire him. Allowing for the mass production of his item"
"But that will bankrupt me! The item has only 5 miles of range! That is not good enough for long-term communications"
"Yes, right now, but later it might"
"Bu-"
"Look I know how you Sun people work, if we pay for the cost of this, will you accept the contract?"
"What!? Do you even kno-"
But before she could finish, a heavy bag full of gold coins landed on her lap. Yu eyes almost pop out when she saw how heavy the bag is.
"Wait..this still not enough! It will cost thousands of gold coins!"
"Don't worry, that is nothing for us"
The masked woman said, as five more bags full of gold coins landed on Yu lap. Her eyes soon turn greedy seeing this amount of money. There is no point to think deeply when there is money waiting for her.
"I will accept! I will accept!"
"Good now sign this contract"
The red mask woman said, making a piece of paper appear out of thin air and handing it to Yu. Who in her rush to have this much gold did not read the contract or notice the Qi in it. As the pen finishes its last stroke. Yu felt a foreign Qi enter her body. Like chains, the Qi becomes one with her body.
"What-"
"Congratulations on being our first contractor. Till [Death] tear us apart"
