Chapter 2385: Chapter 2390: News of High-Rank Demon Beasts

"Hmm, this will do. You should go rest now and get up early tomorrow, there’s work to do in the group."

"Mm! I’ll follow the leader’s instructions."

Lan Lianxue didn’t have any reservations.

In Demon Hunter City, because there exists such a formidable being.

The things that demons should do almost never happen here.

If Xia Liu dares to do anything improper to her.

As long as she gets a chance to escape.

Then Xia Liu is definitely doomed.

No matter how powerful he is, he can’t compare to such a strong presence.

Xia Liu glanced at Lan Lianxue’s identity information before putting away the scroll.

This thing is hardly credible.

Let’s see how this chick acts in the future.

If she’s not a good fit, then it’s just money wasted.

Early the next morning, Lan Lianxue got up early.

But she wasn’t earlier than Xia Liu.

In the backyard, Xia Liu handed her a small shovel.

"Leader, is this for planting?"

Lan Lianxue had noticed the large fields in the backyard yesterday.

But she didn’t expect that she would ever have a day where she picks up a shovel to till the land!

To think that she, a dignified Demon Infant Early-Stage cultivator!

How could there be such a day?

"Yes, planting can calm the mind and aid in cultivation."

"Is that so? For planting, wouldn’t a little magic deal with it easily?"

"Lianxue, are you really only thirty-something years old?"

Xia Liu suddenly asked.

"Yes? What’s wrong, leader?"

"Ahem, since it’s cultivation, naturally it should be done personally. If everything relied on spells and divine skills, then what is the purpose of our cultivation?"

...

Lan Lianxue listened, utterly confused.

How could she possibly comprehend Xia Liu’s way?

"I understand, leader! I will certainly complete the task."

"Mm, just plant according to my instructions next."

Xia Liu started teaching Lan Lianxue hands-on.

This medicine garden is planted to earn a little extra and provide some convenience for the members soon after.

In one morning, the vacant space in the backyard was fully planted.

After that, Xia Liu taught Lan Lianxue how to nurture and manage the newly sprouted seedlings.

Ten days passed with interactions like this.

During these ten days, Xia Liu and Lan Lianxue were in the garden every day.

Lan Lianxue was originally a very shy girl.

But after many days buried in the medicine garden, she felt like a fish out of water.

Feeling detached from the worldly affairs.

Her mind began to waver.

If Xia Liu doesn’t issue or teach her to do something meaningful soon.

She might return the demon crystals to Xia Liu and then leave the Mercenary Corps.

"Leader, it’s been fifteen days, are we just going to work with these herbs every day?"

Lan Lianxue was on the verge of tears.

She was beginning to doubt how Xia Liu’s Mercenary Corps was established.

Could it be his ancestors founded it and passed it down to him?

But that’s not right, without strength verification, even inheriting a family legacy, the Mercenary Corps couldn’t continue to operate ...

"Uh uh, Lianxue, what meaningful thing do you want to do?"

Xia Liu smiled knowingly, almost scaring Lan Lianxue.

"Leader, I want to hunt demons in the Nether Land or above the Nether River under your leadership!"

After calming down, Lan Lianxue boldly said to Xia Liu.

"Oh? So obsessed with hunting demons, did you leave home just for this?"

"Yes! I learned a truth from a senior: without the baptism of blood and battle, no progress can be made throughout a lifetime of cultivation."

"Yo, young lady, you have good insight!"

"Naturally! I have the best talent and insight among the demon cultivators in my village!"

Lan Lianxue said with a hint of pride.

"Great! It indeed was a grievance for you lately."

"Leader! I didn’t mean it like that. Please assign a task or discuss the next actions. Lianxue will surely cooperate!"

"Alright, then from now on, every noon you go to Demon Hunter City."

Lan Lianxue, excited, discarded the water scoop in her hand.

Finally! Xia Liu was finally letting her go to Demon Hunter City!

"Leader! What will I do in Demon Hunter City? Accept missions?"

"Yes and no."

Xia Liu thought for a moment and said, "You go to Demon Hunter City to gather information for our group."

"Uh uh, what information?"

"Try to listen, find out where above the Nether Land or Nether River there’s likely to be high-rank demons appearing."

Crack!

Lan Lianxue’s jaw nearly dropped to the ground.

She was very aware, she hadn’t heard wrong!

Xia Liu was asking her to go to Demon Hunter City and pay attention to matters related to high-rank demon beasts!

Demon beasts with strength above Demon Lord!

That’s simply a terrifying existence!

In her current state, even encountering one equal to Demon Infant cultivators, Lan Lianxue didn’t dare to face it.

Demon beasts are inherently stronger than demon cultivators, especially their physical bodies.

Even if her cultivation level is slightly higher.

Without a sharp demon weapon in hand, she can’t break their defenses.

"Leader, did I hear you wrong? Paying attention to terrifying existences with Demon Lord level strength, does it make sense for our group?"

After snapping back, Lan Lianxue asked in distress.

"Haha! Listen to me, noticing where Demon Lord strength demon beasts might appear is for planning the next steps."

"What next step plan?"

"You might not have studied thoroughly, strong demon beasts have specific activity ranges. If we know their locations, we can perfectly avoid them when going to the Nether Land or Nether River to hunt demons, eliminating potential threats."

Xia Liu confidently bamboozled.

He didn’t want to explain too much.

Lan Lianxue able to talk to him like a friend and live together in this courtyard.

It’s because she didn’t understand his background.

Once she knows he has Demon Lord level fourth-stage cultivation.

Her attitude might change.

Because Xia Liu wants to cherish this feeling, he has not yet revealed.

"Haha! Leader is indeed wise! Lianxue knows what to do!"

Lan Lianxue fully understood!

Xia Liu is thoroughly steady type.

Even these details are considered.

When the information is gathered, following into the secret realm to hunt demons, safety will certainly be ensured!

In the following days, Lan Lianxue cared for the medicine garden in the morning.

From noon till afternoon, she was walking back and forth in the crowded halls of Demon Hunter City.

Those halls were either places to trade resources.

Or places to issue tasks and bounties.

In these settings.

They were nearly always full of people.

Some returned from the secret realm, storage bags bulging, making Lan Lianxue envious.

And there were some demon cultivators, with the same purpose as Lan Lianxue.

Seeking information.

The Nether Land and Nether River are crisis-ridden places.

They must be well-informed.

Otherwise, going there is a death sentence!

On the fortieth day of Lan Lianxue joining the Mercenary Corps.

In the evening, she hurriedly rushed back from Demon Hunter City.

"Leader! Good news, good news! I’ve finally gathered information on where high-rank demon beasts have been spotted!"
