Chapter 37

Furthermore, Ye Hao also understood that his older brother's achievements were the result of his own hard work. In terms of resources, Ye Feng was inferior to him, and in terms of talent, Ye Feng was still not as good. However, in terms of diligence and dedication, Ye Feng fell short of his older brother, so he mostly admired his older brother.

"Mother, here are the two bottles of medicine. Take one-fifth of the medicine mixed with a bowl of water every day, and it will improve your health! You don't have to work anymore; I can fully support our family!"

After speaking to Ye Hao, Ye Feng turned to Ling Wanrong and said, "Mother, this is twenty thousand taels of silver, what I earned this time!"

Ye Feng did not hand over all the silver to his mother. If he gave her over a hundred thousand taels, it might scare her, and she wouldn't be able to sleep well. Besides, he still had many uses for the remaining silver.

"Good, good, no more work. I'll keep this silver for now; you might need it in the future!" This time, Ling Wanrong did not refuse. Ye Feng being a second-rank warrior far exceeded her expectations, something she had never even dared to imagine. However, she also understood that with a second-rank warrior as her son, their family would not lack money in the future.

...

In the following days, Ye Feng often compressed the spiritual energy in his dantian, practicing the "Breath Concealment Technique" and the "Consecutive Arrow Technique." The "Breath Concealment Technique" was relatively easier to master, and in three days, he had already grasped the essentials. Unless someone was much more advanced in cultivation, they wouldn't be able to see through his level.

Ye Hao, on the other hand, practiced with all his might, unwilling to waste such good resources.

Every mealtime was the most lively and joyful moment for the family. One could say that the laughter in the house never stopped. Seeing his mother always smiling and his younger brother full of motivation, Ye Feng felt greatly comforted.

Especially after Ye Hao took the Qi Condensation Medicine, Ye Feng realized that the potency of the medicine exceeded his expectations. It took Ye Hao two days to fully absorb one bottle, and according to him, the potency of the medicine was far stronger than the Qi Condensation Pill.

With the potency of the medicine confirmed, Ye Feng had a plan in mind.

What he lacked most now were weapons and secret manuals. The weapons in Greenhill Town no longer met his needs, and even if they were available, he was unwilling to buy them. In a place like Greenhill Town, spending tens of thousands of taels of silver to buy something was practically asking for trouble. Although he was not afraid, his mother and younger brother could not handle it.

At the same time, he had another plan: to buy a house in Green Frost City and move his mother and younger brother there.

Living in Green Frost City was relatively safer. There were guards in the city, and combat between warriors was prohibited. Moreover, living in Green Frost City meant they wouldn't have to worry about beast tides.

According to the villagers, their father had died in a beast tide. Ye Feng had asked his mother for confirmation, but she only cried and could not stop whenever he mentioned his father. Therefore, neither he nor his younger brother ever mentioned their father at home.

"Mother, I plan to go to Green Frost City! I might not be back for a while!" One morning after breakfast, Ye Feng said to Ling Wanrong.

"Um... okay, go, but be careful!"

Ling Wanrong nodded. Since Ye Feng joined the Flying Tiger Team, he had spent most of his time outside, so it was normal for him to be away for a while. Besides, Ye Feng was already a warrior, and once someone became a warrior, they rarely stayed at home all the time.

Ye Feng packed his things, took the large sum of silver, and left Horn Village.

Ye Feng had never been to Green Frost City, nor had his previous life's self. Therefore, he had no impression of Green Frost City, but this also made him look forward to it. He wanted to see what the city in this world was like.

When he left Horn Village, Ye Feng suddenly remembered Fangzheng's need to buy medicinal herbs. He couldn't use all the herbs from the dozen acres, so selling them became his choice. Otherwise, if someone else took them, he would have nowhere to cry.

Therefore, Ye Feng thought for a moment and went to Greenhill Town.

This time, Ye Feng did not go to the market. In the past, he went there because he had no money, but now that he had money, he wouldn't go to the market. He wanted to buy weapons, and the weapons in the market were several levels lower in quality than those in the shops.

Moreover, the two-hundred-pound bow he bought last time was the best in the market, but it was not suitable for him. Therefore, he came to these shops, where it was said that bows with seven or eight hundred pounds of pull were common.

Tianbao Pavilion was the largest merchant house in Greenhill Town, with three floors, intricate carvings, and golden splendor, making it incredibly luxurious in a place like Greenhill Town. The luxurious decoration alone was enough to make some low-rank warriors hesitate.

Not only here, but there was also a Tianbao Pavilion in Green Frost City, and it was the largest merchant house there. Some warriors said that Tianbao Pavilion had branches all over the country and was the largest merchant house in the entire Tianlan Kingdom.

Tianbao Pavilion not only sold items but also bought them. As long as you thought something was valuable, they would buy it. As long as you wanted to buy something, they had it. Although the prices were a bit higher, many people chose it for convenience.

Ye Feng chose Tianbao Pavilion. With his powerful physical strength, he needed to buy high-rank weapons, and the only place to find a suitable bow was here.

This was Ye Feng's first visit to Tianbao Pavilion. The first floor was a spacious hall with several tables and chairs in the middle, and various materials, many types of pills, and even several secret manuals around the edges. However, when he saw the prices of the secret manuals, he couldn't help but be amazed. The cheapest secret manual cost ten thousand taels of silver, and there were even ones that cost a hundred thousand or a million taels.

It was said that there were top-tier secret manuals here, but they could not be bought with money; only by exchanging them with corresponding treasures.

"Sir, please come in. May I ask what you are here for..." Ye Feng had just walked around when a young clerk in his twenties approached, showing no disdain for Ye Feng's coarse clothes or young age, and greeted him warmly.

"I want to buy a weapon!"

When the clerk heard this, he had a good impression of Tianbao Pavilion. A single glance at the clerk's quality gave him a good idea of the store's standards.

"Buy a weapon? Please follow me!" The clerk led Ye Feng to a corner of the hall.

"Sir, this is our weapons section. We have all kinds of weapons, but since we sell only high-quality items, the prices may be slightly higher than elsewhere!" The clerk explained after leading Ye Feng there.

This was their rule: mention the price first. If you accept it, you can buy; if not, it's no problem.

Ye Feng nodded and began to look around.

It was a large counter with over a hundred various weapons, each gleaming with a cold light, clearly not ordinary.

"These are weapons made by Tianbao Pavilion, all cast from black iron and of excellent quality. On the other side are various weapons we have collected, some good and some bad, but all have been appraised by our experts and are clearly priced!"

The clerk saw Ye Feng looking at the weapons and quickly introduced them.

Ye Feng first went to the counter with the collected weapons. The items here were indeed of varying quality, with the poorer ones costing a few hundred taels and the better ones a few thousand, but none of them met his needs.

He then went to the counter with the weapons made by Tianbao Pavilion. The weapons here cost around ten thousand taels, but the price was worth it. Each weapon gleamed with a faint light, clearly of high quality.

Ye Feng casually picked up the handle of a spear, lifted it slightly, and the spear was instantly held in the air, motionless.

He lightly shook his hand, and the spear trembled violently, making a buzzing sound.

"Such great strength!" The clerk was surprised when he saw this.

He had seen many people come to buy weapons, and most were third-rank warriors or higher, but none could do what Ye Feng did.

At first, he thought Ye Feng was at most a first-rank warrior or a quasi-warrior based on his clothes and age, so he didn't take him seriously. If not for the store's rules, he would have ignored Ye Feng. But when Ye Feng showed his strength, he was shocked and realized that despite his young age, Ye Feng was definitely a second-rank expert.

Would a second-rank warrior at this age be poor? His smile became more sincere.

"A bit light, but it will do!" Ye Feng ignored the clerk, put down the spear, and sighed to himself.

"Uh... a bit light?"

When he heard Ye Feng's words, the clerk couldn't help but shout in his heart.

Most second-rank warriors who came here found this spear too heavy. To be honest, these spears were made for third or fourth-rank warriors.

But no matter what, he couldn't see through Ye Feng. Especially with his slender build, how could he say the spear was light? Was Ye Feng a third-rank warrior? But even a third-rank warrior would find this spear suitable! Could he be a fourth-rank? Impossible! He had never seen a third-rank warrior at fifteen or sixteen.
