After going out of the inn Yue Yang began walking to the ancient oak tree.

While Yue Yang was going to the meeting point, Princess Qian Qian has already arrived at the mercenary group room.

She didn't even knock as she immediately entered the room like it was in her house. On the other side seeing the door open the mercenaries thought that it was Yue Yang who returned but seeing the face in front of them they became scared. Especially the leader and the girl who opened the door to Yue Yang.

After entering she didn't even greet anyone and began speaking,

"Where is the wisdom fruit? Give it to me immediately. This will be the payment for the wisdom fruit you promised me"

Hearing her the leader Feng Rui began trembling and then looked at the girl near him. She too was looking at him telling him with her eyes to speak but he too was telling her the same thing. They were having a battle with only their eyes.

Seeing how they were acting Princess Qian Qian became pissed and then looked at the girl and said,

"So are going to bring it to me or should I take it myself?"

The girl still scared began speaking.

"S-sorry sister Qian Qian we had just traded it with someone else. He was here a couple of minutes ago. If you came a little sooner you would have seen him. You might have seen him at inn exit" As she was speaking she was looking at her searching any sign of anger on her face. When she saw the frown on her face she immediately went to hide behind captain Feng Rui.

Hearing her words Princess Qian Qian couldn't help but think about the guy who smiled and greeted her with a bow at the exit. Thinking about it she frowned.

She then looked at Feng Rui and asked,

"Was it the guy who has two crescent blades?"

Feng Rui replied nervously.

"Yes, it's him, sister in law "

Seeing that it was really that guy she could now understand why she felt tricked when he greeted her. It also seemed like that guy knew that she was coming here.

She looked at Feng Rui again and asked,

"Do you know what guy name? And what type of beast did he give that made you forget about your promise to me?'

Captain Feng Rui scratched his head and answered while smiling wryly.

"Hm, we don't know his name. As for the beas-"

Before he could finish speaking he heard Qian Qian shouting at him.

"WHAT? Did you make a trade with someone without even knowing his name? Are you all idiots?"

This time it was the girl who spoke.

"B-but sister the offer was so great that we didn't think about little things like that." After saying that she immediately returned behind Feng Rui.

Princess Qian Qian gazed at her for a little before asking,

"So what beast did he trade for the items you gave him?"

"It was a baby hydra not older than 3 months." Said Feng Rui happily.

When she heard that Princess Qian Qian was surprised. Now, she even became more curious about that guy.

......

Yue Yang after arriving at the meeting point and not seeing anyone jumped on the tree and began meditating.

As he was meditating the ancient oak tree began emitting nature energy began pouring into him.

This was the reward for the mission he accepted which was to kill a nine-headed monster. Since he killed many of them the energy he was receiving was very large.

The natural energy that was poured in him was so pure that he felt like he was one with nature. His comprehension of nature only increase by time and the energy that he was receiving was increasing as his comprehension increased.

While still in meditation Yue Yang suddenly felt his mind begin to enter a strange yet wonderful state. It was as if his heart had opened up and expanded limitlessly, stretching to the furthest ends of heaven and earth. His body slowly disappeared, leaving his soul to fly freely around in the sky. Yet it felt like his soul was still continuously expanding as if he was a giant looking at the myriad of rivers and valleys on the earth. He was like a powerful creator, looking down at all the living beings on the earth, looking at the swaying of the plants, the birds flying around, and the vast variety of living beings which formed a circle of life that was wonderful without compare. It was a perfect, endless cycle.

He finally understood the heart of nature. He was really excited as this was another step for him to become stronger. After celebrating quietly he began meditating again waiting for Yue Bing and the others.

He was forced to wait for another hour before they finally arrived. They were all tired and converted with dirt or injuries all over their bodies but they were still fine.

He looked at them and asked,

"Have you all finished your quests? And why did it took you so long?"

They nodded their heads and then looked at him in disbelief and answered by asking a question to him.

"How long have you been waiting for and what about your mission ?"

"I am here for already two hours. As for the mission, it wasn't difficult at all."

When they heard that they were surprised as they knew how difficult the missions were. Even though they were in three or two they didn't complete their missions so quickly as someone who went alone. It was really embarrassing for them so they didn't ask anything else.

Fortunately, they didn't ask about the mission he took. If they were to know the mission he took they will all have a heart attack. The thought of him completing an ordinary quest so quickly already stunned them. What will happen if they knew that he completed an almost impossible quest so quickly? And he even has the guts to say that it wasn't difficult.

After recovering from their shock they all went near the tree to register their quest mission and receive their reward.

Their rewards were more useful to plant type beasts so they all gave them to Yue Bing to help her upgrade her beasts power. As for Yue Yang, he didn't give her the items yet as he wanted her to achieve a certain level in her cultivation by herself before gifting them to her.

After all of them finished they began walking toward the exit and unlike when they were doing the mission they were able to move faster and in half an hour they arrived at the exit.

After leaving the forest they barely made a hundred steps before a city guard came near them.
