Dual Cultivation System
The 2nd Intermediate Mission

"Do you know where those ghost cultivators are hiding, Tian?" Zhu Yuhe seriously asked Xia Tian.

Xia Tian raised an eyebrow, he felt Zhu Yuhe acting strangely after learning about the ghost cultivators. “Their location is very far from here, Yuhe. They hid in the Ghost Valley in the eastern continent, and that place was beyond the reach of humans.”

Zhu Yuhe's face wrinkled after hearing Xia Tian's words, she knew that the eastern continent was very far from their location. And 50% of the continents are rivers, the rest are valleys, mountains, and swamps.

“Why do you hate that perverted cultivator so much, Yuhe?” Xia Tian asked curiously, even though he was guessing a bit, but he wanted to know the truth.

Zhu Yuhe looked at him doubtfully, then she sighed. “My father was killed by those perverted cultivators, Tian. I am not sure of their identity, but I remember that they summoned a two-horned demon and a ferocious ghost, that is why I firmly forbid the inhabitants of my Kingdom to make contact with heretical cultivators.

"Double-horned devil, huh?" Xia Tian knew about many types of demons, because he himself knew the King and Queen of the Underworld. However, in the Netherworld Realm itself there were also many demons who had ambitions to rule over other realms, it seemed like the words from the Netherworld Queen's soul imprint indicated that there was a rebellion there. “It is best to forget about those perverted cultivators for now, and you should focus on your cultivation first, Yuhe. In these few days, I will make some pills for you, those pills will make your bones, soul, and meridians stronger than before.

"Hmm? do you have pills like that? Zhu Yuhe was actually not surprised, but she was still curious, as Xia Tian always gave her unexpected surprises, even the Yin Enhancer Pill and Yin-Yang Essence Pill provided her with tremendous benefits.

Xia Tian asked him with a smile. "Have I ever lied to you?"

"NO! It's just that all your pills are beyond common sense, Tian. I've never even heard of a pill that can strengthen bones, souls, and meridians.” Zhu Yuhe sighed after saying that, she still felt that everything Xia Tian did was completely unreal. All of his pills, the Ancient Holy Realm, as well as his Dual Cultivation Room were simply too absurd.

“After Murong Feiyan gave me all the materials I requested, perhaps Zhu Kingdom will undergo a great change like Bai.” Kingdom With Liu Ying's help, Xia Tian was confident that Zhu Kingdom would become a center of alchemy and pills.

Zhu Yuhe raised an eyebrow, she did not know how Xia Tian knew about Bai Kingdom. "Do you know anything about Bai Kingdom, Tian?"

“There is someone similar to me in Bai Kingdom, a reincarnated person who has a memory of his past.” Xia Tian replied while thinking about Long Tian's true identity living in Bai Kingdom.

"Are you sure of that?" Xia Tian replied with a nod, Zhu Yuhe fell silent for a moment, then he asked. "Are you able to do the same with them in this kingdom?"

Xia Tian hesitated at her request, not because she couldn't do it, but she had no intention of doing it. Because his focus was only on his cultivation and family, and he did not care about others. However, she understood Zhu Yuhe's feelings as a mortal Queen, she said later. “I will make the design first, and your officials can make everything according to my design later. I'm sure Zhu Kingdom will not lose to Bai Kingdom, it will probably be bigger in the future.”

Zhu Yuhe's eyes sparkled at Xia Tian's decision, she felt sweet in her heart, because she knew that Xia Tian was doing it for her. "yes, I'll wait for you to finish the design."

Afterwards, Xia Tian sent Zhu Yuhe back to the Ancient Holy Realm, as they did not have much time to prepare for Hong Chen's war later. However, suddenly a notification from the system surprised him, because long enough he did not get a new mission.

Xia Tian inside exclaimed in shock. 'Damn it! This system is crazy, giving me a mission, but not giving me any clues.'

[Hmm, it looks like you have to look for a powerful monster, Master.] Said Alice.

Xia Tian agreed with Alice's words, but she was also confused. 'The problem is what monster should I contract with, Alice? And where to find the beast?'

[Hehe, I don't know, master. Perhaps, you should look for beasts in other Kingdoms or Kingdoms, since I did not find any powerful beasts in this Zhu Kingdom.]

'Five days are left for my maturity ceremony, so there won't be enough time for me to go to another Kingdom.' While Xia Tian was contemplating his mission, a great danger came without him noticing.

Xia Tian decided to return to his room to make the design he had promised Zhu Yuhe, he wanted to finish the design as quickly as possible, and by the time he finished everything, it was already afternoon.

After which, Xia Tian spread his senses throughout the Xia family, and he found Chen Xue crying in his room. Xia Tian sighed softly, then he used the Empty Steps to go to his room. He immediately sat down beside her, then pulled her into his arms, and hugged her in silence.

Chen Xue buried her face into Xia Tian's chest, and hugged her very tightly, as she cried even louder. His feelings were completely chaotic at the moment, especially after learning that his own father wanted to sacrifice himself to become Gui Mo's cultivation furnace. Moreover, the punishment Zhu Yuhe gave to his family made him suffer even more, although he was very disappointed with his father and family, but he also could not bear to see them put to death by Zhu Yuhe.

After crying for quite a while, Chen Xue started to calm down, but she still did not say anything, and she continued to hug Xia Tian in silence.

"Do you feel any more relieved now, Xue'er?" Xia Tian asked gently, Chen Xue simply nodded at him. “I know that today's incident was a heavy blow to you, but you must remain strong, Xue'er. And you don't have to regret Yuhe's punishment for them, because people like them don't deserve to live.”

“I know, Tian. But they're still my family.” Chen Xue said slowly.

Xia Tian pushed him slightly back, then he raised his chin, and looked at him seriously. “People like them don't deserve you to consider your family, Xue'er. Me and the others are your real family, and we will definitely make you happy.”

Chen Xue looked at Xia Tian with misty eyes, then she wiped the rest of her tears, and nodded. "yes, you and the others are my true family."

Xia Tian smiled, then he kissed Chen Xue's lips, and he immediately kissed her on the back. Suddenly, Xia Xing opened his mother's room door, he was stunned for a moment to see them kissing. Then he approached them, as he said. “Hehe, I'm so happy to see you like this, Mom.”
