"Do you know the location of East Rising Sect?" Ye Xiao asked.
Qian Li nodded, "If you want, I can bring you there. I'm also a core disciple of East Rising Sect."
Ye Xiao raised his brows and nodded his head in agreement. If Qina Li brings him there, it will be easy for him to enter the sect without any trouble. At that time, all he'll need to do is meet the higher-ups of the sect, if possible, the sect leader, and then ask them to permit him to use the teleportation circle.
"Ok then, it is decided. You'll bring me to the East Rising Sect!"
"Rest today, I'll bring you there tomorrow!"
After that, he brought Ye Xiao to a room and let him rest there.
The next day, Qian Li brought Ye Xiao to meet his father. Qian Li's father was not only the City Lord of the East Rising City, but he was also a Minor Saint Realm expert. Not only that, he was also an elder of the East Rising Sect.
The East Rising Sect has sent him here to oversee the East Rising City.
East Rising City was divided into two districts; the Inner District and the Outer District. City Lord Mansion and the powerful families all reside in the Inner District while the Outer District is for weaker families and warriors.
Qian Li's father was a middle-aged man. A profound aura could be felt emitting from his body. His eyes seemed to be crystal clear, capable of seeing through one's heart.

Ye Xiao wanted to shake his head and refuse but he suddenly stopped. It is because he suddenly thought that the Myriad Star Heart Fruit will only work on Peak Chaos Spirit Realm warrior. Although he was a Late Stage Chaos Spirit Realm warrior, he has yet to truly reach the peak.
In the end, he decided to ask for something that could help him in his cultivation.
But then again, when he thought he could easily reach the Peak of Chaos Spirit Realm by simply devouring the Heavenly Demons' corpses that have been kept inside his spatial ring, he decided against his previous decision. There was no need to ask for anything.
Ye Xiao replied, "There is no need, City Lord. I did not save Brother Qian in order to receive some reward in return. Even if it was someone else, I would have still saved them. There is no need to give me any reward!"
City Lord deeply looked at Ye Xiao and nodded his head. Ye Xiao's impression of him improved by many times.
Although Ye Xiao did not ask anything, he still decided to give Ye Xiao something.
He waved his hand and a glass bottle appeared in his hand. A single drop of blood could be seen inside that bottle.
City Lord introduced, "This is a drop of blood essence of a Spirit Essence Bird, a mysterious bird that is neither a Chaos Beast nor a Demonic Creature. It is said that the Spirit Essence Beast is a creature born in the darkness of the void. Everything about this beast is violent and berserk, except for its blood essence."
"Its blood essence could help a martial warrior step into the First Stage of Spirit Fusion immediately and even complete it. As long as you use this drop of blood essence, in just a short month, you'll be able to become a warrior at the Second Stage of Spirit Fusion."
Ye Xiao already had Million Star Heart Fruit and does not need this drop of blood essence, but he still took it and thanked City Lord.
He could simply gift this drop of precious blood essence to someone else.
His most important gain was the information about the Spirit Essence Bird. Although this bird is a beast, it is not a Chaos Beast.
After a short conversation, Ye Xiao left the City Lord Mansion with Qian Li, their destination this time was the East Rising Sect.
"I have been away from the sect for almost two months now. Normally, only after accepting a mission could we go out of the sect. But this time, I was able to go out of the sect and return to my family because of a mysterious situation taking place in the Outer District of the East Rising City."
"It started three months ago. People from the Outer District suddenly started disappearing. At first, we did not pay any attention to this matter, however, everything changed when a young lady from a second-rate family disappeared and her corpse was found three days later. After a thorough investigation, it turned out that she was raped and murdered."
"This is where things really started going dark. Every day, many girls started disappearing. But unlike the first girl, none of them was found, not even their corpses. It was as if they suddenly disappeared from the surface of Morning Stars. In the end, as the City Lord, my father had to take action."
"He requested the East Rising Sect and post a mission. At the same time, he asked me to come back to help him investigate this case."
"Because this was happening in the East Rising City and City Lord is my father, the sect did not object and sent me here. After dozens of days of continuous investigation, we found that the disappearance of those girls was related to the Black Wolf Gang. However, there was no evidence so we could not do anything legally."
"However, the longer we stall in order to find evidence, the more harm those bastards continued to do in secret. In the end, I decided to destroy them completely first. As for the reason, I just made up an excuse, telling that the Black Wolf Gang dared to lay their hands on my servant. How dare they?"
Qian Li took a deep breath, looked at Ye Xiao, and then spoke again, "Yesterday, from the clues we obtained in the base of Black Wolf Gang, we found that these bastards were cooperating with a group of bandits living on the Black Iron Mountain that is located a hundred miles away from the city. They seem to be working on something. I don't know what it is, but we found something very unusual."
"Ahm... Actually, we found a diary. The Black Wolf Gang wrote every transaction they did with the group of bandits in that diary. The details of every disappeared girl were present in that diary. After a nighttime of reading, we found two things in common. First of all, every disappeared girl was less than eighteen years old and a virgin, and second, they were used as 'objects' for transactions with the bandits on a codeword called 'Worms'."
Now this was when Ye Xiao's face stiffened and he was attracted. He almost forgot about the Worms as soon as he came out of the relic. He did not even think about them.
Now that he heard about them again, he suddenly realized that those Worms are hidden dangers that might even swallow the Land of Morning Stars one day.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmMost importantly, he had already promised the Morning Stars that he'll help by getting rid of those Worms, and in exchange, it will bless him.
Ye Xiao took a deep breath and stopped which confused Qian Li.
Ye Xiao thought for a while and asked, "Did you get rid of those bandits?"
Shaking his head, Qian Li spoke, "We found that they are the true culprits just yesterday. We have yet to take action against them. They are not easy to deal with. After all, their leader is also a Minor Saint, and in fact, there are many Minor Saints among those bandits which is really surprising."
Ye Xiao nodded and thought for a while, then he spoke, "Let's go to the Black Fog Mountain first!"
"What?" Qian Li was shocked. He hurriedly shook his head and said, "Didn't you hear what I just told you? There are many Minor Saints among those bandits. They are shockingly powerful."
"I heard it clearly!"
There was no smile on Ye Xiao's face, only seriousness. He turned to look into Qian Li's eyes and said, "We will go to the East Rising Sect tomorrow. Meet me outside the city tomorrow morning."
With that, his figure flashed and he suddenly disappeared. He did not explain anything at all.
Qian Li's mouth was wide open. He did not know what to say. He wanted to refuse and did not want to risk his life by going to the Black Fog Mountain. After all, his cultivation base was only at the early stage of Chaos Spirit Realm. There is nothing he alone could do to those bandits.
Because there are many Minor Saints among them, his father was prepared to request the East Rising Sect for help. This is also the reason why he was going to the East Rising Sect today. And since he was already going, he thought of bringing Ye Xiao alone.
But now, Ye Xiao was saying to meet him outside the city tomorrow morning.
What the hell does he even mean?
