Mr. Wenruo produced a small boat. The four of them stepped onto it, soared into the sky, and vanished into the horizon in the blink of an eye.

"Junior Brother Yan, quite a trick you have there!" Jiu Jiansheng suddenly leaped down from a tree.

With everyone else gone, Jiu Jiansheng could finally catch up with Yan Chuan.

"Many thanks, Jiu Jiansheng. As for the matter of being 'Junior Brother,' let's hold off until we reach the Great River Sect," Yan Chuan said with a smile.

"Ah, very well!" Jiu Jiansheng nodded, unbothered.

"Regarding the events within the Feng Shui formation, I thank you again for your righteous protection of my soldiers," Yan Chuan said solemnly.

"Haha, I gained a share of dragon aura from that as well. Besides, your father once did me a kindness; how could I stand by and watch?" Jiu Jiansheng laughed.

"Understood. I will remember this," Yan Chuan nodded.

"Shall I apply to come and collect you when you turn eighteen?" Jiu Jiansheng asked with a grin.

"That would be perfect. However, I will no longer be here by then; you can find me in Yanjing," Yan Chuan replied.

"Agreed! Is there anything else you need my help with?" Jiu Jiansheng nodded.

"As a matter of fact, there is one thing I must trouble you with."

"Hahahaha, I knew it!" Jiu Jiansheng roared with laughter.

"Huo Guang, bring the chest from under my bed," Yan Chuan commanded.

"Understood!" Huo Guang responded.

Soon, Huo Guang arrived before Yan Chuan, carrying a large chest. Yan Chuan flipped it open, revealing three hundred crystals wreathed in mist.

"High-grade spirit stones? That can't be right—your father didn't leave you anything. Where did you get these?" Jiu Jiansheng asked in astonishment.

"Must everything I possess come from my father?" Yan Chuan smiled.

"Haha, my apologies for the assumption. Yan Chuan, what do you intend to do with these?"

"I have yet to enter the world of cultivation, so I must trouble you to use these three hundred high-grade spirit stones to procure some items for me," Yan Chuan said.

"Oh?"

"Three thousand Heaven-Shaking Bows, one hundred thousand Sun-Shooting Arrows, and three thousand Heaven-Breaking Spears," Yan Chuan listed.

"What? So many?" Jiu Jiansheng exclaimed.

While the Heaven-Shaking Bows, Sun-Shooting Arrows, and Heaven-Breaking Spears were renowned, they were considered merely basic armaments in the cultivation world. Of course, in the mortal realm, they were divine weapons.

"What is the matter? Are the stones insufficient?" Yan Chuan asked.

"They are enough, but this is a massive undertaking. Three thousand? One hundred thousand? Most shops won't have such stock on hand," Jiu Jiansheng said with a wry smile.

"That is precisely why I must trouble you," Yan Chuan laughed.

"Fine, fine. I suppose I shall have to make a few extra trips," Jiu Jiansheng nodded.

"My thanks," Yan Chuan said earnestly.

"No matter, it's not my money I'm spending!" Jiu Jiansheng said bluntly.

"Spend as much as you need," Yan Chuan replied.

"In that case, I shall delay no longer. Farewell!" Jiu Jiansheng hoisted the chest of spirit stones and took his leave.

"Indeed," Yan Chuan nodded.

After seeing Jiu Jiansheng off, Yan Chuan turned to Huo Guang and Liu Jin.

"Did you hear my instructions just now?" Yan Chuan asked the two.

"Yes, my lord. The soldiers will be overjoyed when they hear this!" Huo Guang said with a grin.

Heaven-Shaking Bows, Sun-Shooting Arrows, and Heaven-Breaking Spears—these were clearly magical artifacts for cultivators. Three thousand, one hundred thousand, and three thousand? It was clearly equipment for the First Legion.

"A few days ago, each of you consumed a strand of dragon aura. Digest it well and use it to achieve another breakthrough," Yan Chuan said sternly.

"Rest assured, my lord. Those lads have been sitting in meditation and practicing the moment they returned. They are sharp; no urging is required," Huo Guang laughed.

"That is good," Yan Chuan nodded.
