Dragon Ice City, the Monster Hunter's Association.
Over the past month, Xu Wuji had been lying in bed recovering. With Yue Ruxin taking care of him, his heavy injuries finally made a full recovery at the end of the month.
After recovering from his injuries, Xu Wuji and Yue Ruxin went to the Daemon Hunter's Association together. They planned to check how many Daemon Hunter points they had left after failing the previous Daemon Hunter mission. They needed to exchange them for some healing pills in case they needed them.
Moreover, they had pretty much used up all the money they had to treat Xu Wuji's injuries over the past month.
"Sigh, what a pity. We really shouldn't have provoked that Heart-Freezing Fang," Xu Wuji sighed.
At that moment, he also thought of Xi Yuying and Jiang Liuxue, who had trained with him a few times in the past. It was rather a pity.
Although he already had Yue Ruxin, when he saw a beautiful woman, he still felt some fondness from the bottom of his heart. It was just a pity that Xi Yuying and Jiang Liuxue had actually died at the hands of the Heart-Chilling Bone Tooth. It was truly a pity.
"What? Do you really think it's a pity?"
Yue Ruxin snorted softly. "If they were still here, would something have happened between you and them?"
"How could that be?
Nothing like that. "
Xu Wuji explained in a hurry, "Didn't Wei Binghai fancy the two of them?
In the end, he didn't even turn around to save them. That person sure is cowardly. He was clearly the one who brought them on the Monster Hunter mission, yet he ended up causing the deaths of others and running back himself. "
He quickly changed the topic to Wei Binghai.
"So what?"
Yue Ruxin snorted. "Isn't Wei Binghai still having a good time in Dragon Ice City, eating, drinking, and having fun? He's everywhere.
Beauties are even lining up at his residence. It's said that he's about to break through and reach the eighth layer of the Divine Martial realm. I just don't know if he's broken through yet. "
"Even if he has, let's not go on the Monster Hunter mission with him. He's too much of a scammer."
Xu Wuji finally understood Wei Binghai's character after being heavily injured this time. He no longer wanted to be associated with him.
"We've arrived at the Monster Hunter Association. Let's go in and have a look first."
Xu Wuji raised his head and saw the gate of the Demon Hunters Association. He lifted his foot and wanted to walk in.
However, at this moment, Yue Ruxin tugged at his arm before glancing to the side. She pouted her lips in some surprise. "Look, aren't those two … Xi Yuying and Jiang Liuxue?"
"What?"
Xu Wuji's expression changed slightly. He hurriedly glanced in the direction that Yue Ruxin was pointing at, and sure enough, he saw the two women walking hand in hand towards the main entrance of the Monster Hunters Association!
"It's really them. How is it possible that the Heart Chilling Teeth didn't kill them?"
Yue Ruxin was shocked. She had mentally prepared herself a long time ago, believing that these two women had already died to the hands of Heartless and Bony. In fact, when she returned from the Dragon Ice Canyon that day, she believed that these two women were definitely dead.
But now, the two women appeared in front of her unscathed.
More importantly, the two women were talking and laughing. Their relationship was not bad. Most importantly, they were talking and laughing. Didn't that mean they were in a good mood?
If they were in a good mood, then nothing could have happened to Kang Shin-mu.
If it were not for the fact that the two women were in a good mood, Yue Ruxin definitely would have thought that Kang Shin-mu had risked his life to save the two women from the Heart Chilling Teeth before sacrificing himself. This would have made her think slightly more highly of Kang Shin-mu.
But now, Yue Ruxin truly had no idea what was going on.
Could the Heart Chilling Teeth be so kind as to spare them?
"No, that's impossible. Why would a daemonic beast spare a dragon cultivator?
Someone else definitely passed by at the time, which was why they were able to be saved. As for where Kang Shin-mu is right now, it's not difficult to guess. He probably hasn't recovered from his injuries from withstanding the Heart Chilling Teeth's attack earlier. "
Yue Ruxin could not help but whisper to Xu Wuji.
Xu Wuji was already heavily injured, unconscious, and unconscious at the time, so he did not know the exact situation. However, from what Yue Ruxin said, he felt that this was probably what she guessed. After all, Yue Ruxin would never lie to him.
Xi Yuying and Jiang Liuxue, who were approaching them, naturally saw Yue Ruxin and Xu Wuji.
However, the two women no longer had any thoughts about this couple. After all, Yue Ruxin had fled immediately and did not care about them at all. They were the only ones who had stayed behind to fight alongside Kang Shin-mu.
Fortunately, Kang Shin-mu was powerful. Otherwise, they would have died at the hands of the Heart Chilling Teeth.
In reality, if Wei Binghai had not acted on his own and even tried to harm Kang Shin-mu, Kang Shin-mu really would not have minded bringing them to hunt three ninth Firmament daemons so that they could complete the Monster Hunter mission.
Unfortunately, Wei Binghai had run away too quickly. Since that was the case, there was no need to be nice to them.
Xi Yuying and Jiang Liuxue ignored Yue Ruxin and Xu Wuji. They walked straight into the Monster Hunter Guild.
"Let's go. Follow them."
Yue Ruxin and Xu Wuji hurriedly followed them.
They had come to inquire about Monster Hunter points, but they wondered why Xi Yuying and Jiang Liuxue had come to the Monster Hunter Guild.
Could it be that they had been doing Monster Hunter missions recently and had come to submit their missions?
Very soon, Yue Ruxin and Xu Wuji stepped into the Monster Hunter Guild. They followed the two women and headed towards the inner region of the Monster Hunter Guild.
"What are they doing in there?"
Yue Ruxin knew that the two women definitely did not like her at the moment, but she still wanted to know why the two women had come to the Monster Hunter Guild.
"If we go any further in, we'll only reach the counter for submitting ice cores. Could it be that they're here to submit ice cores in exchange for Monster Hunter points?"
Xu Wuji frowned slightly as he guessed.
"It's possible, but what kind of Heavenly Demon can they kill? At most, they can obtain a fourth-grade ice core. Even a fifth-grade ice core is very difficult to obtain, so there aren't many Monster Hunter points that can be exchanged for fourth-grade ice cores," Yue Ruxin said casually.
Yue Ruxin replied casually.
Previously, she had followed Wei Binghai with Xu Wuji and mainly dealt with fifth to eighth layer Heavenly Demons. Their main objective was to collect fifth-grade ice cores. Right now, she felt that it would be very difficult for Xi Yuying and Jiang Liuxue to deal with these demonic beasts even if they seemed to have broken through a layer.
As a result, she felt that the two women had come to submit fourth-grade ice cores.
However, very soon, Yue Ruxin's mouth fell open. She was so shocked that she could not speak at all — this was because she saw Xi Yuying take out a large pile of ice cores from her bosom. These ice cores were filled with energy, and she could tell with a single glance that they were definitely not fourth-grade ice cores, nor were they fifth-grade ice cores.
Instead, they were … sixth-grade ice cores!
"There are so many sixth-grade ice cores. How is this possible?"
Yue Ruxin was so shocked that she suspected that her eyes were deceiving her. She rubbed her eyes in a hurry and opened them again. She discovered that the powerful members of the Monster Hunter Guild were currently counting the number of sixth-grade ice cores for them.
"They really are sixth-grade ice cores!"
Yue Ruxin's heart shuddered. She was practically in disbelief. She could not understand how these two women could possess twenty to thirty sixth-grade ice cores when Wei Binghai and the rest of them could not even kill a ninth layer Heavenly Demon, Heart-Freezing Bone.
