"Is the person I most want to see back?" Lei Fatzi's mind raced, and he slapped his thigh in pleasant surprise, exclaiming, "Min Xuhuai!"
Yue Heng smiled and nodded, contacting Min Xuhuai in front of Lei Fatzi. After a brief exchange, Min Xuhuai quickly said, "Come to my Min family nursery right away, we need to talk in detail!"
Yue Heng took the opportunity to ask, "I'm with Senior Brother Lei Hai from the Craftsmanship Academy, who has long admired you. Can he come along?"
Min Xuhuai immediately asked, "You know Lei Hai? That's even better. Come with him, I'll have Xiao Bai pick you up!"
Lei Fatzi himself was puzzled. After Yue Heng closed the transmission, he asked, "Min Coldface actually knows my name? I know why now, it must be because of the Huichun Wenpan!"
Yue Heng also figured it out. Min Xuhuai contacting him right after returning indicated how important this matter was.
The two of them took a single-person mobile vehicle to the third floor. With Yue Heng's pass stone leading the way, Lei Fatzi was fortunate enough to reach the third floor, feeling quite emotional. He had been at the academy for four or five years, and this was only his second time on the third floor. Compared to Yue Heng, it was truly a case of "comparing people makes one die of envy."
Yue Heng was already a familiar face at the Spirit Master passage. The rule that one must be accompanied by a Spirit Master became less strict after Yue Heng contributed several hundred contribution points, but this time he was also bringing Lei Fatzi, so he couldn't push it too far.
The two guards smiled and greeted Yue Heng. Lei Fatzi went over to chat, but suddenly a lightning-fast light flashed past him, scaring him into retreating. Turning around, he saw a snow-white, big-tailed little creature snuggling up to Yue Heng's shoulder, rubbing against him affectionately.
Yue Heng gently moved the big tail away from his face. The "Spring" character charm in his divine palace activated, channeling a massive amount of vitality into Xiao Bai, who purred and chirped continuously, clinging tightly to Yue Heng's neck, unwilling to let go.
The two guards, seeing this, asked curiously, "Isn't this the Min family's treasure?"
"Hey? I only heard that Xiao Bai is close to the Min family. Why is he so close to you, Young Master Yue?"
Yue Heng chuckled, "Maybe it's because of my honest face, which is more appealing to small animals! Seniors, this is a document Xiao Bai brought."
He handed over the document Xiao Bai had brought. The two guards carefully inspected it, their expressions turning a bit sour, but they still said, "For the sake of Master Min, we won't say anything else. Young Master Yue, you can go in. We two brothers saw nothing just now!"
Yue Heng smiled and walked toward the transmission array, giving Lei Fatzi a meaningful look. Lei Fatzi understood and followed Yue Heng, passing by the guards. A small stone token shot out, containing two hundred contribution points. The guard blinked and finally smiled.
Lei Fatzi was seeing the mountain belly of Qimang Mountain for the first time, feeling quite curious about this forbidden area of the Qijun Prefecture Government.
In the Misty Valley, Yue Heng moved skillfully, and Lei Fatzi followed closely. They quickly passed through the maze array and saw the unique landscape of the Min family nursery.
"Xiao Bai! You ungrateful little thing..."
As soon as they entered, a young girl's voice scolded. Xiao Bai, who was tightly gripping Yue Heng's shoulder, suddenly opened her small eyes, rolling them around. Although she was reluctant, she didn't dare to disobey Min Ruogu's order. She took a deep sniff of Yue Heng's neck and then flew to Min Ruogu's hand, still looking back at Yue Heng with a pitiful, longing expression.
Lei Fatzi almost burst out laughing, and Yue Heng also smiled. Led by the pouting Min Ruogu, they met Min Xuhuai, who was inspecting the spirit herbs in the nursery.
"Brother Min, it's been a while! Congratulations on becoming a third-level Spirit Master!" Yue Heng extended his hand, genuinely happy to see Min Xuhuai again.
Min Xuhuai took off his work clothes and hugged Yue Heng with a smile, "It's only been a few days, but you look even better, and your reputation has grown even more!"
The two exchanged pleasantries, and Yue Heng introduced Lei Fatzi to Min Ruogu. The four of them returned to the thatched cottage, clearly to discuss important matters.
Min Xuhuai looked at Lei Fatzi and asked, "So the Huichun Wenpan that was released was a joint effort between Brother Lei and Young Brother Yue?"
Lei Fatzi didn't take credit. He remembered that Min Xuhuai always had a cold attitude and never showed favor, earning him the nickname "Min Coldface." However, today, Min Xuhuai was so familiar and warm with Yue Heng, and with his intelligence, he guessed that their relationship was very close.
"Senior Brother Min, all of this was done by Young Brother Yue. I just have some business acumen and helped him promote it to maximize the benefits," Lei Fatzi said respectfully.
Min Xuhuai then asked Yue Heng, "Young Brother Yue, the Huichun Wenpan that Brother Lei released seems slightly different from the one you gave to my sister?"
Yue Heng nodded and briefly explained the principle of the Huichun Wenpan.
Upon hearing that the original version could directly steal the energy from the government's array, Min Xuhuai's expression became even more serious.
Min Xuhuai then asked about Yue Heng's achievements in array formation and their plans for the Spring Hunt. After much thought, he suddenly said, "Brother Yue, I have a request, and I hope you will agree."
Yue Heng quickly replied, "Brother Min, please go ahead. As long as I can do it, I won't refuse."
Min Xuhuai smiled, "It's not a big deal, also related to the Spring Hunt. Brother Lei, as a third-level craftsman, is well-prepared to participate in the Spring Hunt. You two should have no problem. I want my sister to join your team to gain some experience. What do you think?"
"Miss Min joining us?"
Yue Heng and Lei Fatzi were stunned, and even Min Ruogu was surprised, looking at Min Xuhuai in confusion.
"Senior Brother Min, the academy doesn't have a rule that Spirit Masters must participate in the Spring Hunt. I've never heard of Spirit Masters joining in previous years," Lei Fatzi, who was familiar with the Spring Hunt rules, couldn't help but ask.
Min Xuhuai explained, "We Spirit Masters return to Spirit Vulture Mountain to continue our cultivation after reaching the third level, so I won't be participating in this Spring Hunt. However, my sister is only a second-level Spirit Doctor, and I hope she can join to gain some experience."
Min Ruogu pouted, "Brother, I just became a second-level Spirit Doctor. I don't like going to battlefields; I hate it!"
Min Xuhuai lovingly patted Min Ruogu's head and sighed, "As a Spirit Master, you must be prepared to go to battle. All our brothers and sisters in the Min family have come from the battlefield. This is for your own good. The Spring Hunt is the safest and least challenging real battlefield. The earlier you experience it, the better it will be for your future development."
Min Ruogu was still upset and pouted, "But if I leave, who will take care of the nursery?"

PS: Happy Children's Day, comforting the launch, cough... I once had great ambitions, but now I return with an empty bag... I'll take a break tomorrow and the day after to spend time with my son. I'll update twice a day in June.
