A Substitute

"This is much more than I expected..." Shi Mu said, a little fazed.

Being in Red Flame City gave him the opportunity to take on missions and tasks such as hunting demons, monsters and ores in exchange for Spirit Stones. Even if he was out of luck, he could still earn Spirits Stones by the hundreds at least. But Shi Mu did not expect he could earn as many as 30,000 Spirit Stones in just one mission.

"Brother Yu, there's no need for you to quit. Maybe I should stop asking Brother Yu for help with my personal matters," Shi Mu hurriedly added before Yu Yi could say anything.

"If that's what you desire, it's fine by me," Yu Yi said hesitantly before walking out of the room.

After sending off Yu Yi, Shi Mum went into the room and sat down.

Suddenly he heard a buzzing sound from outside the courtyard, though it was hard to pinpoint where it came from exactly. As Shi Mu looked outside to identify the sound, he spotted a figure. It was not other than Master Gong Xi!
