Chapter 129: No need, I’m just looking

When Oliver Chen saw the introduction of the items before him, a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes.

“Bodhi Fruit, can accelerate the body tempering progress of Body Tempering Realm warriors, priced at 300 Jade Coins.”

“Purple Ganoderma, can enhance the Qi and Blood of Blood Condensation Realm warriors, priced at 1300 Jade Coins.”

“Arisaema heterophyllum, can increase the Qi and Blood of Innate Realm warriors, priced at 5000 Jade Coins.”

…

Everything he saw was a rare treasure that could help warriors improve their realms. If the clan could obtain these items, the warriors’ progress would undoubtedly speed up significantly.

When Oliver saw the item placed in the topmost compartment, his eyes showed a trace of longing.

“Wind Fairy Flower, a specialty of the Zhou Family in Cloud Dream City. Innate Realm warriors who consume it have a chance to comprehend a trace of Inner Qi! The higher the realm, the greater the chance of comprehension. Each warrior can use it only once.”

However, upon seeing the price of twenty thousand Jade Coins, Oliver quickly calmed down.

Forget about the Wind Fairy Flower, he couldn’t even afford the 300 Jade Coins for the Bodhi Fruit.

No, it wasn’t just him; even the clan couldn’t afford it.

“Sir, these items are unique to Yong’an City. Would you like to buy some? For instance, the Bodhi Fruit can accelerate the body tempering progress of Body Tempering Realm warriors by twenty percent. If you take a few more, you could see improvement in less than half a month!”

“And the Arisaema heterophyllum, its effects are also excellent. You can try it and see for yourself.”

The young attendant in green continued to introduce the items enthusiastically, but Oliver waved his hand slightly and said:

“No need, I’m just looking.”

With that, Oliver turned and left the Stone Warm Pavilion.

Recalling the attendant’s introduction, it was clear that the Bodhi Fruit was much more effective than the clan’s Blood Rice for body tempering.

Even if the clan members consumed Blood Rice daily, it would take several months to see any improvement. However, such items were likely scarce even in this shop.

The clan’s Blood Rice should have the advantage in quantity.

After memorizing the information, Oliver walked towards the city outskirts.

He had seen too many things he had never seen before on this trip and witnessed much prosperity. He needed to inform the clan of these findings as soon as possible to aid in its future development.

Reflecting on the journey, Oliver felt a sense of urgency.

He didn’t want the clan to remain a vassal to other families for long, but after witnessing the Zhou Family’s strength firsthand, he understood the gap between the two families—a gap that couldn’t be closed in a short time.

Thinking back to the Clan Chief’s helpless sigh at that time, Oliver felt a deep sense of empathy.

Shortly after Oliver left, in the Stone Warm Pavilion, the young attendant in green was reporting the recent situation to a burly man in luxurious clothes, who also bore the Stone Clan’s emblem.

“Oh? An unfamiliar Innate Realm warrior?”

“Yes, Elder. This person is indeed unfamiliar, not from the other three major families, and not recorded in our clan’s records. Elder, should we follow and investigate?”

After hearing the report, the burly man shook his head slightly:

“Forget it. This person was asking about basic knowledge like combat skills, probably just someone who luckily advanced to the Innate Realm. Even if he has a clan behind him, it’s likely an unknown small clan, not worth much attention.”

“The clan’s focus should still be on the Xie Family. If Xie Yanmo truly advances to the Internal Qi Realm, there might be some changes in Yong’an City.”

After leaving the city, Oliver circulated his Qi and Blood to quicken his pace. Only when he felt no one was following did he relax his brows.

He had just entered the city for a look and didn’t expect to be noticed.

Innate Realm warriors were rare in Yong’an City, making him somewhat of a rarity.

Moreover, he was an unfamiliar Innate Realm warrior, so it wasn’t surprising to attract attention.

Based on the attendant’s description and his own investigations, Yong’an City was indeed deep and complex.

But it was also the closest city to the clan, and he wondered if the clan could secure a foothold there.

Oliver stopped thinking about it and, determining the direction of the clan, continued towards Disordered Burial Mountain.

He had been hungry for several days. Even though Innate Realm warriors could withstand hunger better, prolonged hunger would still cause a decline in Qi and Blood.

…

“It looks like Oliver will be back in the clan in two days.”

In the Ancestral Hall, Ethan Chen and others watched the light screen with joy.

Over the past month, the clan had planted another batch of Blood Rice, and with the rising temperatures of Disordered Burial Mountain, the natural Blood Spring was gradually reviving. This time, they had two more acres of fertile fields for planting Blood Rice.

Additionally, the road the clan was developing was progressing smoothly. They had already cleared a twenty-mile path, though it wasn’t entirely flat yet.

But as more people traveled it, the road would gradually take shape.

According to the clan elders’ judgment, it would take a few more months to develop a complete road to the outside world.

The clan wasn’t in a hurry.

Although they had half as much Blood Rice, the clan’s supply was still sufficient to meet the needs of the people. Over the past month, two more Body Tempering Realm warriors had emerged in the clan.

Despite the presence of the Zhou Family, the clan was still progressing along the expected path.

Two days later, Oliver, seeing the familiar Disordered Burial Mountain in the distance, felt a sense of relief on his tired face and quickened his pace.

Even though he was an Innate Realm warrior, traveling for so long had left him somewhat fatigued.

Fortunately, he was about to return to the clan. He wondered how the clan had fared over the past month, how his father was doing, and what had happened in the clan.

Oliver hurried and soon arrived outside the clan.

To his surprise, Ethan and several clan elders were standing at the entrance, seemingly aware of his return.

When they saw Oliver’s figure, they smiled.

“Clan Chief, I’m back.”

“Good to have you back. Have something to eat first; we can talk about other things later.”

“Alright.”

Oliver nodded silently, feeling a warm current in his heart.

No matter where he was, the clan would always be his final refuge.

“Oliver, what was it like outside? Tell me all about it.”

“Oliver, is Cloud Dream City really that big? Is it as big as Disordered Burial Mountain?”

“Oliver, what was that place called where they danced? Do they really not wear clothes?”

…

Upon hearing of Oliver’s return, many clan members came to greet him.

Among them, the most active were the young boys like Lucas Chen, who were around ten years old. They didn’t know that the Ancestral Hall could watch the scenes, and their hearts were filled with curiosity about the outside world, eagerly asking their questions.

Oliver patiently shared everything he had seen with them.
