Hitman With A Badass System

Chapter 39 - Guest Of Sunrise Sect

The bright sun rays made him close his eyes as soon as he opened them.

"It's great to be back" He turned his head left and right as his neck made a popping sound. Then he brushed away some dust bits on his shoulder and got up from the bed to leave the room.

Hisss! Grrrr!

Ggggrrr!

"What is that noise?" He heard some weird noises coming from outside as he made his way out to see what's making these weird noises while looking for Gaya.

It didn't take him long to locate the source of the noise and find Gaya. It turned out his couch was occupied by the snake. She was sleeping on the couch like a drunken old man as her one leg was on the couch while the other was on the ground. He could see her knee cups and wide opened mouth, his pillows were drenched in drool. Besides her ungirly posture, there were half licked clean food bowls and cups lying around. He could tell that this snake-filled its belly full of food and drinks before going to sleep on his couch.

"Princess my ass" Looking at the snoring and drooling snake, he sighed.

"Ignitia"

He conjured a tiny bolt of lightning as he sneaked towards her to give her a shock treatment, literally.

Gaya on the other hand had no idea of the incoming attack as she was walking towards her throne in the dream.

Bzzhh!

"AHHH!"

And just when she was about to sit on her throne in the dream, she was pulled back from the dream world by a sharp tingling pain in her leg.

"What?! YOU!" She gritted her teeth and quickly rubbed her feet to make the tingling pain go away as Michael chuckled.

"Did you miss me?" Instead of answering, she threw an empty bowl at him in anger as he flicked the bowl away with a smile.

"What the?! You reached the Body Refining, Level 5? How?!" when she took a closer look at him, her mind froze in shock. He just reached the Body refining stage two days ago but now in two days, he leaped from level 1 to level 5.

"It seems like you had a good time" She saw him glancing at the empty bows and cups lying around her. Yet, she was too stunned to say anything

"Come, we have work to do" he didnt wait for her as he walked towards the door and stopped, "And clean your mess," said Micheal before stepping outside.

"Im a princess, you bastard" she mumbled under her breathe but she reluctantly cleaned the bits of food on the couch while cursing him.

"Brother!"

A fluffy ball collided with him the moment he stepped outside as he looked down to see Cindy hugging his leg and trying to climb up on his body.

"Cindy? What are you doing here?" he lifted the girl up and ruffled her head playfully.

"Brother, everyone is here. That kind sister invited us here"

"Who?" Cindy tried to remember the name closing her eyes as he saw the other kids and Raylene came running to him.

"Brother"

"Young master! You're awake"

In a few seconds, the little kids swarmed him like ants swarm sugar.

"Raylene, what are you guys doing here?"

"Sect leader Claire brought us here and offered us a place here to permemntly settle down, young master"

"She did?" he was genuinely surprised by Raylene's words as the kids nodded their heads.

"Young master, what should we do?" asked Raylene.

"Brother, please can we stay with you?" the little girl looked at him with puppy eyes while Michael thought about this arrangement.

"It's indeed better if they stay here," Michael said to himself and then turned his gaze away from Cindy to Raylene.

"Make yourself home, Raylene"

"Yey!" Cindy and the kids hopped in joy as he gave Cindy back to her mother.

"I'll see you guys later" he then turned towards the house and saw Gaya finally making her appearance.

"Come, let's go meet the Elders" He took Gaya and walked towards the direction of a group of two-story buildings.

"How long was I cultivating?" On their way, he asked Gaya.

"Three days, you freak of nature. Now give me the pills you promised"

"Deal's a deal, here, you greedy snake" he already bought and stored the pills in the system's storage, so he quickly retrieved the pills and gave them to her.

"You're drooling" he made fun of her as she looked at the pills like a starved dog looking at a piece of meat. She grabbed the pills in a flash and swallowed them with a huge grin.

"You're happy?"

"Yes, but don't you have bigger pills?"

"She who is greedy is always in want," he said as he knocked the back of her head.

"Ouch, you bastard, where did you read that, Dumb town?"

"You mean your home town"

"Asshole"

"Bitch"

Two of them fight their way to the Elders' place where Michael saw a fancy carriage standing outside. Surrounding the carriage, there were a couple of men who stood guard in light blue metal armor.

"Who are they?" Obviously, Michael knew that neither the carriage nor the guards belonged to the Sunrise sect because the guards and the carriage looked so distinct compared to the worn out buildings and decayed structures of the sect.

"An alchemist's carriage," Gaya said and pointed at a symbol of two green lives in a silver circle etched onto the carriage's side. The guards gave them an indifferent look when they saw Michael and Gaya as the two of them entered the building to see what's happening inside.

This hall they were in was mainly used to receive distinguished guests. Undoubtedly the one inside was a distinguished guest. As Micheal reached inside, he saw a middle-aged man sitting in the hall and drinking tea leisurely. He seemed wealthy because of the high-quality robes, the big red gem on his finger, and the rich aura he was radiating. His cultivation was

however not very higher as he was just at the Body strengthening stage, level 2.

"Lord Hart"

Micheal was surprised to see the Elders calling him as Lord and sitting on the edge of their chairs while the silver-haired man was sitting before them like he owned the place. The reason for this was very simple. He was a two-star Alchemist and could concoct pills with 15-30% purity. In this world, cultivators were everywhere. But possessing special skills such as alchemical skills and reaching the two-star level was not common.

Even if one's cultivation realm was high, it was no guarantee that one would possess special abilities, but with special abilities, it would serve well the path of cultivation. Also, just possessing this profession would definitely heighten one's status and fame.

"Lord Hart, we need your help to concoct a heart healing pill this time, you don't need to worry regarding the price." Sect Leader Claire walked over with a smile, her attitude was very humble.

The other three elders including Elder Mark and Miles were keeping a small smile on their faces.

Hearing Claire, Hart said to them indifferently: "Heart healing pills are not so easy to concoct, and the cost is not low either. I have several conditions for this, if you don't comply, the deal is off."

"What conditions?" Claire asked: "As long as it is within our power, we will agree"

"Actually, my conditions are very simple. The first condition is to let my students use your herbal garden" he said.

"Umm… ok, no problem." She thought quite hard about it, but considering their herbal garden had almost dried out and only had a few herbs growing there, she agreed to let them use the remaining herbs.

"The second condition, the price of the ingredients for the pills are expensive since you agreed to my first condition, we can continue the negotiation. As for the materials for concocting the pills, my students will buy them but you need to pay for them"

"No problem on that as well, the price of the ingredients is obviously expensive, but I do not know how much you need?"

"Not too much, with my fee, 5000 gold coins is enough" he casually stated an astonishing price.

After they heard it, they were stunned, 5000 gold, this was too expensive!

For a declined sect like theirs, five thousand gold coins were not something they could give just like that.
