After hearing that the owner shared the sa feelings as him, the clerk bowed to acknowledge his understanding. Once he returned to complete so paperwork and inford his family that the house had just been sold, the owner shook hands and dismissed the young clerk.
"If he weren’t the Great Marshall of the Beast Army, I would’ve kicked him out long ago." The man muttered to himself while organizing docunts, "If he weren’t that, everyone would despise him, and it poses a significant threat to our world." He continued mumbling as he grabbed the papers, left the room, and headed toward the mansion while flipping through the sales docunts.

Yan Xiaobao and Deng Wu returned to the Rong twins’ ho. Just as Yan Xiaobao stepped through the doorway, he noticed Cai Jie waiting for him, his face brightened with a radiant smile. Cai Jie seed restless; it was obvious he was eager to show Yan Xiaobao sothing. But as soon as he saw Deng Wu, he instantly cald down. This revealed to Yan Xiaobao that Cai Jie wasn’t interested in sharing the information he had obtained with anyone else.
Yan Xiaobao wasn’t the only one who noticed. Deng Wu did as well, softly placing a hand on Yan Xiaobao’s shoulder and smiling at him, "I need to do so refining. I’m far from strong enough to support you." He smiled gently. Before Yan Xiaobao could say anything, the elder man climbed the stairs.
"Follow ," Cai Jie said, heading up the stairs toward the small library he and Yan Xiaobao frequently used. Yan Xiaobao hurried after him, curious about what the other man had been up to and what he might have brought back.
"I’ve got so intriguing information," Cai Jie said as he sat down on a chair in the library. Yan Xiaobao slipped into the chair opposite him, shrugging, signaling he had no idea what Cai Jie had discovered.
"I planned to go to the Black Lion Team to gather information about the Crusaders. I thought they might have sothing for sale, but on the way, I actually ran into so Crusaders!" Cai Jie exclaid. His eyes sparkled with excitent, his words flowing rapidly—a level of energy that fully captured Yan Xiaobao’s attention.
"I followed them. There were only two, low-ranking individuals. When I saw them around the marketplace, I wasn’t sure where they’d co from, but I tracked their path to the castle. I suspect one of An He’s n is stationed in the castle." He said excitedly. "He only lends his Crusaders to soone he can use. n like General Frozen. If there’s a more prominent mber stationed in the capital, we should take this opportunity to eliminate them. It might not impact An He directly, but it would undoubtedly inconvenience him and likely force him to appear in person. I haven’t seen him in a long ti, and I can’t gauge how strong he is now. Fighting soone without knowing their power is challenging. Training is great, but training requires a target." Cai Jie spoke more than ever before, and Yan Xiaobao finally realized just how deeply Cai Jie hated An He and how desperate he was to get rid of him. "Tomorrow, we should go to the Black Lion faction. Perhaps they have so information about An He. Surely, there’s sothing about the Crusaders," Yan Xiaobao suggested, attempting to shift the conversation. His words brought a glimr of hope to the seemingly younger man, softening his expression.
"Alright, tell what you’ve been up to today," Cai Jie sighed as he leaned back in his chair, his gaze now curiously fixed on the grinning Yan Xiaobao. Yan Xiaobao pulled out his mory Stone from his storage stone and tossed it to Cai Jie, who effortlessly caught it. Placing the stone to his forehead, gentle hues of silver and blue light shimred throughout the library, and the mansion’s details poured into the blond man’s mind. When he removed the stone and handed it back to Yan Xiaobao, he said, "You have enough money to purchase such a perfect mansion? Not bad, not bad at all." He praised the young man before him.
Cai Jie and Yan Xiaobao each headed to their respective rooms, sitting down to focus on their training. Hours passed, and the house fell into complete silence. The Rong twins were still at the Royal Academy. While no longer students, they were dedicating themselves to developing Martial Arts and crafting spiritual art in their laboratory. Their innovations were later taught to students and experts in the Royal Army. It brought back mories for Yan Xiaobao of his old life when he used to work in the lab, assisting Li Fen with various experints. Though the twins had long since graduated, their continuous creativity never ceased.
While the twins remained preoccupied at the academy, Wang Julong was busy at the infirmary. All her spare ti was devoted to improving her dicinal skills. She vowed never to witness another friend die before her eyes again. She was determined never to be too weak to act. Her training revolved around enhancing her healing abilities, mastering techniques involving flowers and herbal dicine, which eventually evolved into a talent for poisons.
While waiting for Wang Julong to return, Yan Xiaobao was imrsed in training. Deng Wu already knew about their new ho, but Yan Xiaobao wanted it to be a surprise for Wang Julong. He hoped it would comfort her, knowing that he was fiercely driven by his commitnt to avenge her family.
As Wang Julong focused on bolstering her own power, Deng Wu dedicated all his ti to self-improvent. He purchased every soul shadow he encountered and ticulously crafted inscriptions while refining his inner energy. He followed Little Dragon’s training plan with great results. Although he had managed to reach King-level strength, he still felt inadequate when it ca to supporting Yan Xiaobao. As a result, he spent all his free ti in his room, focusing solely on training.
