When they returned ho, Lu Jun spoke to his sister with disdain: "In the future, for those shady relatives, you don't need to consider my feelings. If you don't like them, just act.
"After all, I'm not close to them. If they die, it's none of my business."
He complained, "As expected, the magic capital (Shanghai) has all kinds of monsters and freaks."
In fact, Bo City wasn't much better. It was just that Lu i, being a mid-tier mage, had managed to suppress the greed of many.
His sister nodded with a soft smile, her tone gentle, "You shouldn't act so impulsively, casting magic in public. It's fortunate your psychic and curse fluctuations were subtle. If any experts were around, you'd surely end up in detention for fifteen days."
"Ha! Against soone like that old scoundrel Lu Dong, you have to act on the spot, make him feel scared so he doesn't dare appear again."
Lu Jun sneered but didn't ntion Lu Nian's demonic magic. He only reminded her: "Be careful yourself. I think Lu Dong's intentions aren't so simple."
"I know, I'm not dumb."
"Oh, by the way," Lu Jun then asked, "Have you bought your spirit seed?"
"Of course!" Lu i took out a magical energy box from her arms. When she opened it, a golden yellow light illuminated the room, and a heavy, earthy aura spread through their apartnt, filling it with dust.
She seed quite satisfied and said, "The spirit seed is nad [Mountain], with a 2.5x multiplier. It has a special effect—gravity. My Earth Wave and Rock Barrier spells will be harder for monsters to break through."
"This spirit seed cost 22 million, which is still acceptable."
"Oh? Not bad." Lu Jun was surprised. "But aren't you going to buy a Wind Elent spirit seed?"
Lu i sighed helplessly: "I had my eye on one born from the Qinling Demon Wind, but the seller didn't want cash. They wanted an equivalent quality spirit seed for trade, and we're short on funds."
That was true. The siblings, though they had 40 million, had already spent a lot—renting an apartnt, hiring a Starcloud Magic Tool, and buying the spirit seed—leaving them with only 15 million. They still had to cover daily expenses.
"But it doesn't matter."
Lu i smiled brightly and said, "I found a way to make money—joining the magic capital's 'Urban Managent,' which is essentially the City Hunter Team."
"Don't underestimate this job. I've looked into it; it's very different from Bo City. The magic capital is a huge tropolitan area with countless strange creatures lurking. Commander-level monsters often appear, making it extrely dangerous. As a result, bounties often start at a million."
"The City Hunter Team in the magic capital is incredibly powerful and ranks among the top in the country. Their entry requirents are strict—at least an advanced Hunter Certificate, which almost always requires a mid-tier mage to obtain."
Hearing this, Lu Jun thought of sothing. Mo Fan had complained to him over the phone about how absurd the magic capital's City Hunter Team was when he first arrived.
However, they were different. With two and a half years of experience as Hunters during their high school years, getting an advanced certificate was a piece of cake. Joining the magic capital's "Urban Managent" team wouldn't be a problem.
The Hunter System was a massive organization, no less influential than the Magic Association. The higher rank of [Hunter Master], widely respected in society, required at least high-tier cultivation to achieve.
Masters were further divided into [Seven Stars]. Those with high-star titles were often of super-tier cultivation, and the highest rank, [Hunter King], was extrely difficult to attain. Across the Greater China Region, only one was selected every ten years.
Of course, cultivation was just one aspect. Comprehensive skills as a Hunter were equally important.
According to Lu Jun, the Clear Sky Hunter Agency in the magic capital was one of the most famous Hunter organizations in the country and had produced Hunter Kings.
What's more, while others might not know, Lu Jun was aware that the old man in the Clear Sky Hunter Agency was secretly a Forbidden Mage. Joining this agency would provide his sister with a strong backing, significantly improving her safety.
"Joining a Hunter Agency? Wouldn't that impose restrictions?"
Lu i hesitated. Such organizations were like upgraded versions of the City Hunter Team, with many internal rules such as commissions and mandatory team actions.
She particularly disliked the City Hunter Team due to the dirty, vile people inside. With her condition, she would likely be harassed to the point of frustration.
"Don't worry. I know a Hunter Agency with almost no rules, and they're currently recruiting."
Lu Jun said mysteriously. The Clear Sky Hunter Agency was similar to the Akatsuki Organization in Naruto, with mbers operating in pairs, maintaining a high degree of independence and mystery.
The siblings didn't act imdiately. They stayed ho, waiting for Lu i to refine her Earth Elent spirit seed [Mountain], which significantly boosted her strength.
Three days later, at a skyscraper in Lujiazui, within the Hunter Hall, a beautiful, mature assistant smiled at Lu Jun and his sister, handing over their certificates: "You've been officially employed. As per your request, your working hours are scheduled for weekends and night shifts."
Lu Jun glanced at the planned area, which was close to the Pearl District. For now, it was just the two of them. After all, his sister's cultivation was high enough to guard it alone.
Afterward, he asked the assistant for the Clear Sky Hunter Agency's address and took his sister there.
Passing Jing'an Temple, they walked down a flower-filled avenue with lush branches and leaves, eventually reaching an old street with a charming, Republican-era style.
At the end of the street, they saw a swaying signboard at the alley entrance, creaking in the wind—Clear Sky Hunter Agency!
When Lu Jun and Lu i stepped inside, they noticed a cute little girl with long twin tails sitting on a stool, holding a dossier. Her delicate face was frowning, and her bright eyes, which should have been lively, were red and swollen.
This must be Lingling, the high-IQ genius and One-Star Hunter Master.
"Hello." Lu i took the initiative to greet her with a radiant and kind smile, "Little sister, are the adults ho? We're here for an interview."
The little girl didn't move, completely ignoring her. After Lu i called out a few more tis, the girl finally raised her head coldly and sneered: "So eager to hunt monsters? In such a rush to die?"
Hearing this, Lu Jun was stunned. Sothing wasn't right. In his mory, Lingling, though sharp-tongued and straightforward, wasn't this aggressive or rude.
Even Lu i, known for her good temper, showed a slight change in expression.
Soon, an old man, seemingly aware of the commotion outside, hurried out and apologized, "Ah, my apologies. This child recently experienced a family tragedy. Her closest relative died during a hunt. She's in a terrible mood."
Lu i glanced at the little girl. Judging by her appearance, she was only in the sixth grade, so she decided to forgive her reluctantly.
anwhile, Lu Jun pondered for a mont and then suddenly realized. If he rembered correctly, Cold Hunter King had recently passed away, a story that had been all over the newspapers and the internet.
As his daughter, Lingling must be in a state of grief and rage, likely trying to find the culprit who frad her father and bring them to justice.
Thus, Lu Jun chose not to offer any advice. After all, unless one has walked the sa path, they shouldn't urge others to move on. Moreover, with Lingling's intelligence, she would likely recover quickly.
