The next day.

Dong, dong, dong!

Qin Shi had just woken up when he heard a knock on his door. ”Come in.”

The door was pushed open as Hao Shuai walked in with big strides. With a warm smile on his face, he said, ”Junior Brother Qin Shi is really hardworking. Why are you rushing here so early in the morning to train?”

”Isn't it the same for Senior Hao Shuai?”

Qin Shi was quite surprised when he saw Hao Shuai. He replied with a smile.

”Heh heh, I'm not like you. ”Huang Qiuming was punished, but now that you've entered the inner court together with Su Ming and the other two, it's all down to me. It's been so hard on you.” Marshal Hao pretended to look wronged and teased, ”You, you should reward me well.”

”Of course.”

Qin Shi smiled as he agreed. His eyes shifted as he asked, ”Oh right, Senior Brother Hao Shuai, did you just say that Huang Qiuming was punished?”

”That's right. He was severely punished by Elder Cui just because of what happened last time.” Hao Shuai shook his head and replied, ”I heard that it was pretty bad. I think he hates you to death right now. You'd better be careful.”

”Moreover, after two more days, that means the three of you will be participating in the mission for the first time since entering the sect.” After saying that, Hao Shuai became serious and said: ”The mission this time is to go to the mountain at the back of the ancient city and search for the demon core of the bewitching bird.”

”A bewitching bird?”

Qin Shi had seen this bewitching bird in books before. It was a Xuan Class Huang Beast with the ability to bewitch and bewitch people. It was one of the top Xuan class beasts among all the beasts. Thinking of this, Qin Shi was shocked. ”The sect wants the three of us to kill the bewitching bird?”

”What is the difference between this and taking our lives?”

Hao Shuai paused, shook his head regretfully and said, ”Mm, I was curious as to why the elders would give you such a difficult mission when the three of you have just entered the sect. ”Later on, I found out that it was all because of Feng Hai. Your task this time was for him to lead you.”

”Feng Hai? Is it him? ”

With a frown, Qin Shi's eyes turned cold.

”Just be careful. He definitely didn't do anything out of good intentions.”

Hao Shuai patted Qin Shi's shoulder heavily. Then, he suddenly took out a purple marble from his spatial ring and said, ”Senior Brother, there aren't many things that can help you. This is the Destruction Bead, it has a strong explosive power. If you encounter danger, maybe it will be able to save your life. ”

”Senior apprentice-brother …”

”Take it.” Before Qin Shi could finish his words, Hao Shuai put the Destruction Bead into his hand. He paused for a moment and said: ”You don't have to be too passive. As your senior, Feng Hai, he won't be able to explain himself if anything happened to you.”

After he finished speaking, he didn't stay any longer and turned around to leave.

As he waited for Hao Shuai to leave, Qin Shi looked at the destroyed pearl in his hand and felt touched. He thought to himself, ”This Senior Hao Shuai is not bad. If there's a chance in the future, we can get to know him better.”

”But right now, I should first get rid of this' trouble '.” Thinking about this, Qin Shi smiled strangely: ”Feng Hai, oh Feng Hai, you want to use the dire beasts to get rid of me?” You're wrong about that move. ”

As he thought of this, he didn't linger in his room. Instead, he turned around and walked towards Lin Yu's room. As he walked over to Qi Yu, he knocked on the door and entered. He saw that Qi Yu was lying on the bed with a swollen face, as if he had suffered a great grievance.

”Little Yu, what are you doing?”

The corners of Qin Shi's eyes twitched as he looked at Lin Yu, who had obviously gained three rounds of weight.

Seeing Qin Shi come in, Lin Yu hurriedly stood up. With a wronged expression, he grabbed onto Qin Shi's pants and wailed, ”Ah Shitou, Shitou, you have to avenge me … …” ”Zhou Qin, she … she actually dared to treat me like this …”

Hearing the two words Zhou Qin, Qin Shi more or less understood what was going on and couldn't help but laugh.

”Do you have a conscience? It's all your fault. I don't know where you got that witch, but not only did she attack you, she even called me a pretty boy? ”I've lost my self-esteem.” Lin Yu scolded him in a sad and angry manner.

Resisting the urge to laugh, Qin Shi said with disdain, ”Who told you to go and provoke Zhou Qin yourself? Well, let's call it brine with a bit of tofu, one thing down, one thing down. One is willing to fight, the other is willing to take it. ”

”Scram, do you have any business with me?”

”I do have something to do.” Speaking of serious matters, Qin Shi's expression turned serious. Within his spatial ring, he took out the Spirit Sealing Grass that Fu Feng had given him before and handed it over to Qi Yu. ”Help me refine a pill.”

”Spirit Sealing Grass?”

Lin Yu paused. ”You want me to help you refine the Spirit Sealing Pill?”

”Yes, that's right. In another two days, Su Ming, Zhou Qin, and I will have a mission. The leader was Huang Qiuming's brother, Feng Hai. From the looks of it, he was no weaker than Huang Qiuming. Therefore, I think that it'd be best if we could break through to the Spirit Sealing Realm before then, and increase our chances of success. ” Qin Shi said without hiding anything.

After some deliberation, Lin Yu nodded his head, ”Alright, leave it to me.”

After receiving the Spirit Sealing Grass, Lin Yu did not hesitate and directly took out the pill furnace from his spatial ring. The pill concocting furnace was pitch black in color, with four divine dragons carved into it. It had six orifices, and from just the look of it, it was definitely an extraordinary weapon.

Standing to the side and watching Lin Yu's smooth and comfortable movements, he placed the Spirit Sealing Grass into the pill furnace. A flame formed in his hand from his spiritual energy. After that, he skillfully controlled the fire and warmed the pill furnace with his spiritual energy.

The entire set of movements was completed in one go.

Qin Shi, who was standing at the side, couldn't help but exclaim in his heart.

”I can't believe my male god's alchemy skills are so profound!” Xiao Zhong Yu was also astonished as he said: ”This kind of mastery over fire is probably at the level of a tier two alchemist, right?”
