When Shi Xuan pushed open the familiar old door, the person in front of him suddenly made him teary-eyed, although he was still the mother back then, but the gray hair on his head made him hard to believe, Shaohua was easy to pass by, and he realized that his relatives were really old.

The mother, who was busy with housework, suddenly stopped what she was doing, turned around and saw Shi Xuan going home, although the young man in front of her had already changed, she still recognized this as her child at a glance.

"Xuan'er, is it you?" The mother couldn't suppress the excitement in her heart at the moment, all these years, the husband and wife have been thinking about this son who left the mainland, although they are not in person, but they have been treating him as their own for more than ten years, and they have long regarded him as their own relatives.

Over the years, every time my father returned from hunting, he would go to the city to ask some mainland businessmen to inquire about Shi Xuan's news, but the world was so big that it was difficult to find out about a person's news, especially when he learned that there was a war on the mainland, he even regretted letting him leave his hometown.

Shi Xuan looked at his relatives with haggard faces in front of him, he could no longer suppress the mood in his heart, "Mother, it's me, I'm back."

"I haven't seen you for a few years, my family's Xuan'er has grown so big, I almost can't recognize it, if the child's father sees you come back, he must be very happy."

"Mother, what about Daddy?" Shi Xuan didn't see Daddy.

"He went up the mountain yesterday, it has been too difficult to hunt in the mountains in the past few years, there are man-eating beasts everywhere, he is old and many times he can't even catch some wild boars, and the life of an Orion is so difficult", the mother thought that his father had not returned yet, and was very worried.

"Mother, don't worry, I'll go to the mountains to find him to pick him up, don't worry about it in the future, I transferred a lot of money outside, and you don't have to hunt for a living in the future", Shi Xuan said.

"Xuan'er has finally grown up and has a future, there are many beasts on the mountain, do you have to be careful?"

"Don't worry, I'm not afraid of beasts now, beasts are afraid of me now," Shi Xuan said.

"Then you go quickly, I'll make you some delicious food at home, and wait for you two to come back," said the mother.

Shi Xuan naturally knew that Daddy would go there, although the back mountain was very large, but the deeper the place, the more high-level spirit beasts there were, and it was impossible for Daddy to go deep now, Shi Xuan knew very well where he hunted back then, and he flew straight to the back mountain to find Daddy.

The mountain behind the stone village has been abundant in recent years, but by then it has been desolate for a long time, and the hot environment here has rarely rained for many years, forming a reddish-brown mountain range, full of stubborn rocks, and trees are rare.

Shi Xuan Feiyue has walked through many mountains and wilderness, he still vividly remembers the areas he followed his father to hunt through, although his father is just an ordinary hunter and has never practiced, but he is experienced, he can be regarded as Shi Xuan's enlightenment teacher, if he hadn't followed his father to lay a solid foundation, his practice would not have been so smooth.

Shi Xuan flew over a lot of mountains, but there was never a figure of his father, he just remembered that there was a cave on the mountain where hunters spent the night on the mountain, once they hunted not well, they could not go home, and directly spend the night in the cave, which could save a lot of time, now it was late, Shi Xuan thought that his father might not be hunting well, and chose to spend the night in the cave, ready to continue the next day.

At this moment, the sun was about to set, and Shi Xuan flew straight to the cave in his memory, where the hunters of Stone Village would rest, and it could be regarded as a base camp for them on the mountain.

Shi Xuan obviously felt the desolation of the back mountain, the ordinary beasts in these places had already been hunted by the hunters, and there was basically no gain, if they went too deep, they would encounter powerful spirit beasts, and the hunters couldn't deal with them at all, which was also the reason why their lives were difficult.

On this side of a mountainside, a hidden cave is there, for many years, the Orion of Stone Village often spend the night here, Shi Xuan came directly, and sure enough, he saw a few familiar figures, they are all Orion of Stone Village, and they returned to this cave together, obviously they have gained little from this trip.

Shi Xuan landed in front of the cave and walked straight over, and the other people suddenly became nervous when they saw the stranger coming.

"Uncle, don't panic, I'm not a bad person, I'm here to find my father", Shi Xuan said to the hunter who raised his bow and crossbow in front of him.

"You are ......" Orion in front of him looked at him a little familiar, but he couldn't remember it.

"I'm Shi Xuan, I'm here to find my father," Shi Xuan said.

"Shi Xuan, is it really you? This kid has grown so big?" Orion said.

"Have you seen my father?" Shi Xuan asked.

"I saw him in the morning, he didn't get anything at the time, he didn't know after the afternoon, and he guess he'll be back later?" said Orion.

"In that direction did you see him in the morning, and I went to look for him?" Shi Xuan asked.

The uncle pointed him in the direction, and then said: "Child, it's getting dark, don't run around alone, there are man-eating beasts everywhere, you don't even have a bow and arrows, or don't go?"

"Uncle, it's okay, now I have the means to deal with those beasts, you guys rest first, I'll pick him up", Shi Xuan suddenly flew out towards the front after speaking.

Seeing this scene directly stunned everyone, "Shi Xuan, this kid finally has a chance, he will fly", several Orions said enviously.

"That baby in my family, I've been practicing for several years, and I haven't come out of Tianhaiyuan yet, so I don't seem to have this talent?" said an uncle.

"Who says it's not? My child is clamoring for me to send him to the academy every day, but what is the material for his cultivation? Where can I afford the meager income I earn from hunting for him to practice?" said another uncle.

"Hey, your idea is wrong, let the child enter the academy, and at least be a mercenary in a few years, the Lu family and the Cai family are recruiting?

Several hunters in Stone Village argued fiercely, they saw hope in Shi Xuan, and many people also figured it out, even if they smashed pots and sold iron, they had to let their children go to the academy to practice, and they could be mercenaries at worst in the future, at least much better than them being ordinary hunters.

Shi Xuan flew over the mountains in the direction guided by the big tree, and he also saw a lot of spirit beasts along the way, but most of them were second- and third-order spirit beasts, and they were no threat to him, but it was not easy for Orion to hunt them.

Shi Xuan soon came to the area where his father had haunted, where the uncle had seen him for the last time, and Shi Xuan began to look for him from here.

He even saw the ambush trap set by his father, which was specially used to deal with wild boars, Shi Xuan searched all the way along the traces, and he found a large pool of blood by a tree, after his inspection, this was left by the demonic leopard, which made Shi Xuan nervous, the demonic leopard is a ferocious and sensitive spirit beast among the low-level spirit beasts, and it is very difficult for the hunter to encounter it, and the father must want to pay attention to it.

Shi Xuan searched for blood stains everywhere, and saw some scenes of trees being broken by wild beasts, he checked and found some shedding fur, "This is the hair of the saber-toothed tiger?" Shi Xuan realized that his father might have encountered an even more terrifying saber-toothed tiger.

He didn't dare to stay any longer, and flew directly into the air and skimmed through the sparsely wooded woodland, and came to a towering cliff, where below was a tributary of the Jia River, and the waves below the cliff were so turbulent that it would be absolutely impossible to survive if he fell.

Shi Xuan was suddenly nervous, could it be that his father was chased by the saber-toothed tiger and finally fell off the cliff?

He did find the footprints of the saber-toothed tiger and the human race on the cliff, which worried him, and he also saw that the blood of the demonic leopard had also been left here, but the saber-toothed tiger was gone.

"Daddy, Daddy..."Shi Xuan shouted loudly from the top of the cliff, he was about to go crazy at this moment, if he got such a result, it would be difficult for him to accept.

However, he searched all the cliffs and found no trace of his father, and he stared blankly at the river rushing under his feet, and his heart sank to the valley at this moment.

"No, absolutely not, Daddy will be fine", Shi Xuan's heart was in turmoil at the moment, and he decided to leap over the cliff to explore.

He jumped from the top of the cliff and flew above the river, but just as he was about to search down the river, he suddenly spotted a large tree on the face of the cliff, which seemed to have a human figure.

He didn't hesitate, flew over directly, and sure enough, he saw his father fall unconscious on top of the big tree.

Shi Xuan flew to the tree and picked up the unconscious father, flew straight to the top of the cliff, and put him on the ground, at this moment Shi Xuan used all his strength to help him heal, when his aura entered the body, the father finally reacted, fell from a high altitude, this time he broke at least several ribs, and the pain was so painful that he fell directly on the spot.

After a while, Shi Xuan's aura finally had an effect, and Dad slowly opened his eyes, his whole body was in pain, and he felt uncomfortable to die, "Am I dead?" Dad said unconsciously.

"Dad, you're not dead, see who I am?" Shi Xuan said.

"Shi Xuan... , is it really you?" Daddy looked at the boy in front of him in disbelief, although it was very different from the skinny child back then, but the basic outline was immediately recognized.

"It's me, I'm here to save you," Shi Xuan said.

"I can't be dreaming, am I?" said the father wanted to reach out and touch the child's face, but couldn't.

"Dad, don't move, you fell from a high altitude, and your ribs were broken, if it wasn't for that big tree that stopped you, I probably wouldn't have seen you", Shi Xuan tried to help him treat.

"Child, I am already satisfied to see you before I die, I am afraid that I will not survive at this moment?" Daddy can feel the injuries all over his body, and ordinary people can hardly live.

"Don't worry, these injuries are not difficult for me, but I can't help you heal here, I will give you some elixir first, which can delay your injuries and help you relieve pain", Shi Xuan took out some elixir and let him take it, and it really had a great effect.

Shi Xuan suddenly released the purple-winged mad lion from the spirit, and the old man almost fainted with fright, "Child, what kind of spirit beast is this, more terrifying than that saber-toothed tiger?"

"Don't be afraid, Dad, this is my tame spirit beast, I will let him carry you on his back and send us home", Shi Xuan patted the Purple Winged Wild Lion and said.

The Purple Winged Wild Lion nodded gently, and Dad felt that Shi Xuan was no longer the weak and helpless child he was back then. Shi Xuan picked up his father and flew on the back of the purple-winged mad lion, the purple-winged mad lion spread its wings and flew, flew over the mountains and crossed the river, and in an instant, the stone village was at his feet.

"It's a pity, our demonic leopard, if it weren't for it, you wouldn't have seen me today," Daddy said sadly.

"Could it be that the blood of the demonic leopard I saw was left by the cub we obtained back then?"

"Yes, it has grown up all these years and has been hunting with me, and today I accidentally met the saber-toothed tiger, and it was it that faithfully helped me buy time, otherwise I would not have had a chance to come to the edge of the cliff, and it was killed by the saber-toothed tiger in order to save me," said the father.

Shi Xuan also nodded, he didn't expect that raising this demonic leopard back then would actually kill his father, which surprised him.

"Dad, it's good that people are alive, you don't have to take such risks in the future, I have transferred enough money outside, even if I buy you a mansion in Jiahe City, it will be no problem, and you will not be allowed to go up the mountain to hunt in the future", Shi Xuan said.

"I'm a poor common man at the foot of the mountain, and I'm used to living in a mansion in the city, as long as I can see you, we can persist in any hardship," Dad said.

Dad returned home with injuries all over his body, Shi Xuan and his mother were almost frightened to death by the scene in front of her, but fortunately, Shi Xuan comforted her, "Mother, don't worry, with me, I will heal him."

This night, Shi Xuan came to Jiahe City overnight, came to a medical hall and spent a lot of money, and invited the best doctor in Jiahe City for him, the doctor finally helped him continue the broken bone after a night of busyness, and with the help of Shi Xuan's elixir, Dad quickly got a lot better.

"Dad, you should recuperate well during this time, after the injury is healed, you will no longer be allowed to enter the mountain, in the days to come, I will help you buy a house in Jiahe City, and you will retire in the city, right?" Shi Xuan persuaded.

"Where am I used to living in the city?" said Daddy.

"You'll just listen to Xuan'er, right? Now that Xuan'er has a future, your body is not good, don't go into the mountain in the future?"

The next day, Shi Xuan came to Jiahe City again early in the morning, this time he came to buy a house for his parents, he no longer wanted to see them running around for food, clothing, housing and transportation, as long as there was enough money in the city, life was very convenient.

After searching everywhere, Shi Xuan finally looked at a house in a lot by the Jiahe River, which is backed by Jiahe City, and the Jiahe River is next to the residence, with beautiful scenery and convenient travel, and it can be regarded as a good location in the city.

Shi Xuan inquired and learned that this was the Lu family's property, and after many comparisons, he finally decided to choose this place as the residence of the second elder.

"This son, this house belongs to the property of our family master, if you like it, you can go to the Lu family office to buy it," said the person in charge of the house.

"I don't know how much you charge for this residence?" Shi Xuan asked.

"Childe's eyes are like torches, at first glance he is a knowledgeable person, the scenery here is beautiful, the scenery is pleasant, it is an excellent location in the city, the price is naturally more expensive?" said the caretaker.

"Tell me about it?"

"100,000 gold coins," the man said.

"100,000? This is ridiculously expensive?" Shi Xuan was also frightened by this price, although he was not short of this money now, but he would not be wronged.

"Childe, Jiahe City is no longer as good as it was back then, if it was five years ago, it would be five thousand gold coins at most. Jiahe City's current status is absolutely second to none in the entire Hongyan Ridge, even when many wealthy businessmen from other towns come, they are also very satisfied with the location here, and the house prices have risen year by year over the years, and after this year, it will not be 100,000 gold coins", the man explained.

"Your Lu family is really going to make money, has the house price increased twenty times in five years?" Shi Xuan couldn't believe it.

"Childe, now you have seen the changes in Jiahe City, the city has expanded by nearly half, but the houses are still not enough to live in, and many of the wealthy merchants who come and go here have bought shops here and taken root here, and the house prices are speculated by them", the man explained.

Shi Xuan was also speechless after listening to his explanation, although the number of foreign businessmen had indeed increased a lot, but he did not expect that the house price could be compared with Danyang Imperial City, you must know that Danyang City is the premier metropolis in the southwest continent, such a residence is only worth 100,000 gold, and the house price of the small Jiahe City can also be compared with Danyang, which is indeed difficult for Shi Xuan to accept.

"Okay, you keep the house first, and then I'll go around somewhere else?" Shi Xuan said.

"I think Childe's accent is also a local, so he probably hasn't been back to Jiahe City for several years, right?" the man said.

"So what?" Shi Xuan looked at the man.

"Seeing that your bearing is extraordinary, you must be a spirit master who has made a name for herself on the mainland, my Lu family is now recruiting highly skilled mercenaries, and there is a big deal to do, as long as the son is strong enough to complete this transaction for us, this house can give you a half-price discount?" The man suddenly said to Shi Xuan.

"What kind of task can actually be discounted by 50,000 gold at once?" Shi Xuan asked with sudden interest.

"Our Lu family has a mine with a lot of output in the back mountain, but it is occupied by the power of the bandits, and the head of my family has long intended to recruit warriors to eliminate the power of the bandits in one fell swoop, so he has been recruiting powerful mercenaries for the past few days.

"I see, okay, you keep the house first, I think I'll go to the Lu family later?" Shi Xuan said.

"Then you have to decide quickly, the housing here is a hot commodity, can someone buy it tomorrow?" said the man.

Shi Xuan was also shocked by the Lu family's methods, he couldn't imagine that now half of Jiahe City was under their control, the entire Jiahe City was under the monopoly of the two of them, and the price was completely monopolized by them, no wonder they were developing so rapidly.

Although Shi Xuan likes this residence, but he doesn't want to pay a penny, he decided to let the thieves pay for him, they have been bullying the people everywhere all these years, looting the people's fat and ointment, making the people's livelihood miserable, Shi Xuan's other purpose of coming back is to purge their forces, and return the peace of Jiahe City, this account will naturally be counted on their heads.

The Lu family and the Cai family have a long history, how could they tolerate the bandit forces to run rampant again, this time the Lu family and the Cai family are recruiting mercenaries, they are ready to take action against the bandits, and Shi Xuan can also use their power to help him achieve his wish.

Shi Xuan came to the entrance of the Lu family's office, where many mercenaries would come here every day to hand over the task, and Shi Xuan also happened to come to him to listen to the news.

There are already a lot of mercenaries gathered at the entrance of the hall, these people are all low-level spirit masters of Hongyan Ridge, most of them are monks from the Ning Yuan Realm and below, there are almost few masters of the Tianmai Realm, and most of the spirit masters of the Tianmai Realm have chosen to walk on the mainland, and there are indeed very few who stay here.

Shi Xuan really saw the news of the Lu family's recruitment of mercenaries, and it was clearly said that the bandit forces occupied their Lu family's mine, and indicated that they would recruit mercenaries to recapture the mine, and the commission they paid was also quite considerable, and the commission was determined according to the contribution, and the highest could give away a house in a good location in Jiahe City, which was indeed very attractive.

The Lu family's recruitment did attract a lot of ruthless people to come, people died for money, birds died for food, and high-reward tasks must also have the strength to obtain, for this reason, the lowest strength of the mercenaries recruited this time must be people from the Ning Yuan Realm, and the mercenaries of the Xuan Mai Realm do not want them.

After all, these bandits are some ruthless people in exile, and if they don't have any strength, they will only take their lives in vain, and the Lu family has paid a high price in order to deal with the bandits this time, just recruiting mercenaries will cost millions of commissions, and the general forces are indeed unbearable.

The Lu family has an important person in charge here, and he is specifically responsible for the recruitment of mercenaries this time, and at this moment, in front of Shi Xuan, many mercenaries are accepting this mission.

"I said a long time ago that the mercenaries of the Xuanmai Realm can't take this mission, and if they go, they will be sent to death in vain, go away, don't stop the others?" said the steward of the Lu family to a mercenary.

"Steward Lu, I have been working for the Lu family for many years, please give me this opportunity, right?" said the mercenary.

"It's not that the old man doesn't talk about human feelings, the bandits are powerful, and the mercenaries of the Xuanmai Realm are also sent to death, I am thinking about your safety, don't you embarrass the old man?" said Steward Lu.

This mercenary has average talent, he has only reached the ninth order of the Xuanmai Realm in his thirties, and the commission for this mission is extremely high, he very much wants to accept this mission, but his strength is not good, so he can only walk away stupidly, full of helplessness.

This time, many mercenaries did not meet the standard, although they had been working for the Lu family for many years, but this time they were rejected.

Shi Xuan was mixed in with the mercenaries at a young age, and he suddenly attracted a lot of attention, "Really, when did the young man be so bold and rush to die?" Several old mercenaries looked at Shi Xuan and said.
