Choosing

The Raging Flame Tiger felt a powerful torrent of gravity enveloping its huge body. The sky appears to darken as multiple boxes of black energy appear, each of them topped off with cross-shaped spears, before they multiply and close on the Raging Flame Tiger.

Ye Yun watched amused on how the gigantic beast was now covered in black box. After a couple of seconds, the gigantic black box suddenly disappeared and reveal what happened inside. The Raging Flame Tiger who was standing proudly and arrogantly before was now lying on its own blood. Multiple wounds littered allover its huge body. Those injuries are not ordinary, they are deep and some white bone could be seen.

Ding... Mission: Kill the Rank 7 Raging Flame Tiger(COMPLETED)

Ding... Hose receives 50,000 soul points.

Ye Yun walked over towards the dead beast and noticed just below its neck was a deep cut. But what pique his interest was inside that deep cut, there was a red crystal orb that was emitting a faint red light. With a wave of his hand, the crystal orb moves and fly towards his hands.

'Hmm, from what I know, this must be a magical beast core that can be seen in high ranking beasts. This is where their power came from' Ye Yun inspect the beast core, "System how much soul points can I get if I exchange this?"

Ding... A rank 7 magical beast core is equivalent to 60,000 soul points. Does host wants to exchange the beast core?

Ye Yun was slightly surprised when he saw that he can exchange the core for 60,000 soul points. That's higher than the soul points he get when he killed the beast, "System why does the mission in killing the beast only gives a 50,000 soul points. While exchanging the beast core gives 60,000 soul points?"

Ding... Host the reason is because the beast core contains pure energy. The only time where a beast core can contain a pure energy is if it is defeated in a short amount of time. Host must know that the longer a battle goes on, the purity of the beast core will be directly affected.

'So that's how it is' understanding the system, Ye Yun said, "Then system, I want to exchange this beast core for soul points"

Ding... Exchanging a rank 7 Raging Flame Tiger beast core...

Ding... Host receives 60,000 soul points.

Ye Yun was feeling extremely happy right now. Before entering the forest, he only had 53,000 soul points. After killing some beast, completing the mission, and exchanging the beast core. He has now a total of 169,000 soul points. He was confident to himself that with this amount of system points, he can buy a new soul which will make him even stronger, that is if he luckily buy a strong one.

'It seems I need to return to the village for now' looking at the sky that was turning dark, he decided to return first before buying a soul. Patting the little head of the little fox, Ye Yun disappeared from the forest.

-------------------------------

Meanwhile while Ye Yun is inside the forest a discussion was happening inside the house of the village chief.

"Great elder Hua and young lady Hua Yue, it is my honor to welcome you in this small village. Just say anything and I will do my best to accomplish it" the village chief said with a respectful tone and wearing all smiles in his face.

"As you've said village chief, we need your help for something" elder Hua said with a serious expression.

Noticing the seriousness in the voice of elder Hua, the village chief knew that they most likely encountered problems before arriving here so he asked carefully, "What is it that elder Hua needed this old man for. I will be happy to do it"

Seeing that the other party listens to him, elder Hua said, "It is like this village chief, days ago we encountered an ambush from the people of Blood Hall"

"WHAT!" before elder Hua finished his words, the village chief loudly exclaimed as he instantly stood up. Noticing that he acted rudely in front of the two, the village chief calm himself and sit down and apologize, "Sorry, I just didn't thought that the people of the Blood Hall would have the guts to attack a caravan from one of the great families of the empire"

Elder Hua just nodded and continues, "Even though they attacked, it is a failure as they revealed themselves before taking an action. But what worries me is that base on the hatred they have for the family, they will definitely attack again. They must have already known that we will be stopping here to resupply some of our items. And they must be planning an ambush ahead of us"

"What I want village chief a map which indicates what part of the surrounding area is the best place to set up an ambush. We are not familiar in this are, so we can only rely on someone like you village chief. Don't worry village chief, if we arrive at the capital safely, we will definitely not forget about the help you've given to us" elder Hua take out a map and spread it on the table.

Staring at the map on the table, the village chief knew that it was the map of the area around as he knew everything about it, "Ok, I will tell you the locations which are suitable to wait for an ambush. But elder Hua, knowing the location will not guarantee your caravan's safety. I suggest that you make yourself and everyone in the caravan alert at all times. As you've said, your enemy this time is the Blood Hall. As long as their target is alive, no matter where you are, you will never be safe"

------------------------------

Upon returning to the village, Ye Yun directly find an Inn to stay the night. When he found one, he notices that almost everyone in the Inn was part of the caravan. Because the first floor of the Inn is a dining hall, everyone was there chatting and eating. The men who were drinking was loudly talking and laughing with each other. Some of them who knew him tried to invite him, but Ye Yun just refuse them saying that he was tired and needed to rest.

Entering his room, Ye Yun went to his bed and sat cross-legged, "System I have a total of 169,000 soul points. Show me the souls that I can purchase, I want the amount in between 150,000 soul points to 169,000 soul points"
