Boom!!
Seeing this scene, Xiao Yuqi and Xu Yuexuan were thunderstruck, their faces showing an unmistakable expression of shock.
He... stood up again!
The battle had just ended twenty minutes ago, and yet he stood up again.
This guy is simply a demon.
They had known each other for a day and had already been tinkering in bed for a day, and even so, they hadn’t exhausted this guy.
It’s truly terrifying!
"No more!"
Held in Yang Cheng’s embrace, Xiao Yuqi shivered all over and imdiately pleaded for rcy, "Yang Cheng, don’t... don’t do this, I can’t continue anymore, my bones are about to fall apart, if this continues, I will be done for, go find my mother, she... she should be fine, too!"
"I can’t hold out anymore either!"
Hearing this, Xu Yuexuan hurriedly waved her hand in fear, although her desires were much stronger than Xiao Yuqi’s, she couldn’t withstand this either.
Today, she had already reached her peak twenty tis.
Even if she was thirsty, she was now completely sated.
Seeing the two won constantly begging for rcy, Yang Cheng showed a satisfied smile on his face, gently patting Xiao Yuqi’s curvy backside, and said, "Alright, I’ll let you off this ti. Once you regain your strength, let’s have a proper fight."
Hearing this, the two won breathed a sigh of relief, imdiately collapsing on the bed,
they were utterly exhausted, even opening their eyes felt strenuous, now all they wanted was a good rest.
Seeing this, Yang Cheng did not continue to disturb them, instead, kindly covering them with a quilt before leaving the bedroom. There were still four hours left until midnight; letting Xu Yuexuan rest well first was important, only then could he take her to buy the Linglong Grass.
Arriving in the living room, he sat cross-legged and quickly entered a state of ditation.
After finicking with Xiao Yuqi and Xu Yuexuan for so long today, he had absorbed only a tiny bit of Primordial Yin Qi, which wasn’t very helpful for his cultivation level anymore. It seed he needed to find new won to enhance his level.
After refining the scarce Primordial Yin Qi, Yang Cheng began to inspect his body again.
After refining the Rat Source Qi, his body had undergone many changes, feeling stronger than before, and his constitution also improved.
It made sense!
Initially, his physical constitution was in tatters; now, after absorbing the Rat Source Qi, he was able to repair so parts of his body, naturally strengthening a lot.
Hmm??
What is this?
Suddenly, Yang Cheng discovered a sphere inside his Dantian, emitting a faint red glow, looking very mysterious.
Upon closer inspection, he realized it was a palm-sized dial.
There were twelve slots on it.
At this mont, one slot had lit up, with a vague silhouette of a rat flickering.
Instantly, Yang Cheng understood everything; if his guess was right, this should be the Zodiac Compass.
Each slot corresponded to a zodiac’s source energy.
Once he absorbed all twelve types of zodiac source energies, his Pure Yang Dragon Physique would reach its true peak state.
"This is just the first one, I must speed up the collection, there isn’t much ti left for !"
Yang Cheng clenched his fist, speaking with a solemn face.
...
Three hours later!
Yang Cheng slowly opened his eyes, seeing that it was already eleven thirty, he didn’t hesitate any longer, and imdiately ran to the bedroom to wake Xu Yuexuan.
"Oh, I’m so tired, let sleep a bit more."
Having only slept for four hours, Xu Yuexuan still felt fatigued all over, unwilling to open her eyes.
Having coaxed for a long ti with gentle calls, Yang Cheng saw she was unwilling to get up. Beside him, his eyes shifted slightly, and he gently infused so True Qi into Xu Yuexuan’s body.
The influx of True Qi made Xu Yuexuan feel as if an electric current flowed through her body, instantly revitalizing her as she leaped up from the bed.
"What did you do to ?"
She looked at Yang Cheng in shock and asked.
"Feeling refreshed now, right?"
Yang Cheng answered with a counter-question.
"Yes, I feel refreshed." Xu Yuexuan nodded blankly.
"Since you’re awake, hurry up and get dressed, the underground market will open soon, and if we’re late, soone else might buy the Linglong Grass, and this waiting period will be in vain." Yang Cheng said seriously.
"Alright, wait for !"
Xu Yuexuan nodded emphatically and imdiately began dressing.
She knew the Linglong Grass was very important to Yang Cheng and couldn’t afford to be careless about it.
Ten minutes later, Xu Yuexuan was dressed and imdiately accompanied Yang Cheng to the underground market.
...
The night had deepened, and the industrial area was eerily silent, with only a few scattered streetlights flickering dimly.
Finally, the car stopped in front of the entrance of a massive abandoned underground parking garage.
The entrance was half-obscured by rusty tal sheets and tattered billboards, exuding a cold and damp aura.
"Here we are, follow , watch your step."
Xu Yuexuan lowered her voice and was the first to slip inside.
Yang Cheng first observed his surroundings, noting their utter quietness and the absence of any human figure. He followed closely behind and squeezed in.
Entering the passage, a mixture of strong mildew, oil, and blood stench hit them squarely.
The concrete floor beneath was uneven, pooling with murky water.
Massive load-bearing pillars stood like silent giants in the darkness, their surfaces covered with mottled graffiti and aged stains.
Overhead, thick ventilation pipes and wires crisscrossed.
In several spots, condensation water was still dripping, the "drip, drip" sounds echoed clearly in the expansive environnt.
After rely two minutes, the two had reached the first basent level!
The underground black market consists of two levels.
The first basent is filled with stalls selling all sorts of items, from firearms to illegal substances, attracting various petty gangsters from society who have so bad habits and seek thrills with a bit of cash.
Yet, none of these were what Yang Cheng desired.
"Let’s head to the second basent!"
He glanced around and said to Xu Yuexuan.
Xu Yuexuan nodded lightly and led Yang Cheng to the second basent; it was clear she was familiar with the route, hinting that she frequented this place.
Soon, they entered a narrow corridor!
Passing through the corridor, a grand iron door ca into view.
At the door stood two n in suits, their faces hidden by large sunglasses, giving no hint of expression while exuding a strong aura of nace, a presence only those with hands stained in blood could possess.
Upon seeing Yang Cheng and Xu Yuexuan approaching, the two n beca more alert, though they did not move forward, only waiting for them to arrive.
"What are they doing?"
Yang Cheng lowered his voice to inquire.
"Do you think anyone can enter the second basent of the underground black market?"
Xu Yuexuan replied softly, "The owner of the underground black market in Peach Blossom County is a mysterious person from Zhonghai City. You can only enter the second basent with an access pass. Average people cannot get in; these two are responsible for checking the passes."
Yang Cheng asked, "Do you have a pass?"
Upon hearing this, Xu Yuexuan shot Yang Cheng a glance and said, "Of course I have one; otherwise, how could I bring you here to buy Linglong Grass? Any local of Peach Blossom County with assets over five hundred million has been gifted a pass by the mysterious owner."
Five hundred million??
Yang Cheng inhaled sharply, surprise flashing in his eyes. Wow, you need assets exceeding five hundred million to qualify for entry.
Clearly, this was not a place just anyone could access!
However, Yang Cheng felt even more curious; surely such a high-tier underground market must have many good items?
"Pass!"
As they approached, one of the n stepped forward, speaking coldly.
"Hello, this is my pass." Xu Yuexuan promptly retrieved a black card from her pocket and handed it to the man.
The man took it, carefully inspected it, then returned it to Xu Yuexuan’s hand, saying, "You may enter."
"Alright, thank you!"
After expressing gratitude, Xu Yuexuan tugged Yang Cheng into the second basent.
This floor was distinctly different from the first basent; it lacked stalls and consisted solely of one storefront after another, and the custors noticeably dwindled in number as well; across the vast floor, only a sparse few custors lingered, but judging by their deanor and attire, they were anything but ordinary.
With Xu Yuexuan leading, Yang Cheng made a circuit of the second basent.
The expansive second basent housed a total of forty storefronts, selling everything from herbs to insider information, offering assassin rentals, and even selling ’people,’ and so on...
The items sold here were truly bizarre!
These items held no interest for Yang Cheng.
"This is it!"
Soon, Xu Yuexuan halted, pointing to a storefront nad ’Carefree Grocery Store’ and said, "Xiaochen, the Linglong Grass you’re looking for is in this store. Let’s hope it’s still available."
"Co, let’s go inside and see!"
Yang Cheng nodded gently, tugging Xu Yuexuan into Carefree Grocery Store. He glanced around, noting the store’s modest size, barely fifty square ters, with two cabinets displaying various unnad goods.
He called out, "Boss, are you here? We want to buy sothing!"
"What do you want to buy?"
Soon, a woman’s voice sounded from behind one of the cabinets.
The voice was sweet and especially gentle, indicating the woman was rather young.
The next mont, a woman dressed in black slowly erged from behind the cabinet...
