_______________________________________________________
Shion landed near Kiron’s house at the Burning Phoenix Sect, “Then, I’ll see you some time in the future.” Robin waved his hand as he walked away.
Kiron already had enough gold to buy a true heavy sword! “Finally I get to buy myself a true heavy sword!” Kiron felt incredibly satisfied at the moment. He had been using bad weapons so far, but now… Now he was finally going to get himself a decent weapon!
Of course, the sect would’ve given him a true heavy weapon for free if he asked for it, but he wanted to achieve his goals using his own efforts!
“Finally! I’ve been waiting so many years for this day!” Kiron had a satisfied expression on his face as he spoke.
Shion couldn’t speak in human tongue, so he could only speak through their soul, “Tonight is worthy of celebration! Lots of food!” Shion had a hint of excitement in his voice as he spoke.
Kiron started laughing, “Haha, you just want to eat some good food! But you’re right, tonight we will celebrate! I’ll buy tons of food and wine!” Shion wasn’t the only one who wanted to eat something good today!
“Then, I’ll fly us to Chemil!” Shion was happy upon hearing Kiron agree to his request! He would often be stuck with some profound beasts that they hunted in the Mountain of Rostradus, but whenever they went to the City of Chemil, Kiron would always buy something delicious for him to eat!
Kiron smiled unconsciously, “Hey Shion, let’s go visit mother when the tournament ends!” Kiron hadn’t seen his mother in 10 years, so he really wanted to visit her! As for Shion, he also liked Charlotte! She’s the mother of the only man he respects, so he will naturally be kind to his mother as well!
“Yes, let’s go visit your mother once you’re done with that tournament!” Shion had a hint of happiness in his voice as he spoke. He couldn’t remember much about Charlotte except for the face that she had taken care of him during his stay in Taruck!
… Shion and Kiron arrived at the City of Chemil

The city was crowded with people! It was a city that had everything, medicines, gambling, weapons, profound skills, slaves… If you need something, then this would be a good place to check!
Kiron and Shion were walking through the streets, ignoring all the stares that were directed towards them. Their first goal was to find the city’s weaponry!
They had been walking around for a couple of minutes before finally arriving at the weaponry. The weaponry was a gigantic shop, the same size as a small mansion!
Kiron entered the weaponry, with Shion staying outside to wait.
“Welcome, young cultivator!” The shopkeeper said as he looked at Kiron. He instantly recognized the Burning Phoenix Sect uniform that Kiron was wearing, so it was obvious that he must have some money on him!
Kiron looked at the shopkeeper, “Hey, are you currently selling any True Heavy Swords here? No matter what the weight or cost, I will buy it!” Kiron spoke with a decisive voice.
The shopkeeper looked at Kiron with a surprised look in his eyes, “A True Heavy Swords? We do have one!” The shopkeeper continued, “Just follow me into the weaponry and I will show you!”
He started walking towards a large, secure door as he spoke. Kiron followed.
The shopkeeper opened the door and they arrived at a huge room containing all sorts of weapons, armors and scrolls.
Kiron turned his head around, looking at all the stuff that was located within the room, “Hey, are these scrolls Profound Skills?” Kiron was still at the Profound Practitioner Realm, so he couldn’t use Spiritual Sense to check.
The shopkeeper turned his head around, “These scrolls? Yes, they are all Profound Skills! Are you interested in buy any of these?”
Kiron shook his head, “No, I was just curious.”
“There it is!” The shopkeeper who was at the 10th rank of the Profound Practitioner Realm picked a Crimson Blade up with both his hands, struggling just to keep it from falling into the ground.
He ended up putting it back in place, “This Crimson Blade is too heavy for me to carry,” The shopkeeper continued, “It was made from some Red Iron that was found at the borders near the Chaotic Lands! This sword is practically unbreakable!”

Kiron went over to the Crimson Blade and picked it up, shocking the shopkeeper, “You… How are you able to pick it up so easily?” The shopkeeper was at the same rank as Kiron, yet he had been unable to hold the Crimson Blade for more than 10 seconds. Kiron on the other hand, he picked it up with both his hands, and he didn’t struggle!
“How much money do you want for this Crimson Blade?” Kiron was quite satisfied with this Crimson Blade. It was just what he had wished for!
The shopkeeper broke out of his trance upon hearing Kiron speak, “Ah yes… The Crimson Blade will cost you 65,000 gold coins!”
Kiron looked at the shopkeeper with a shocked expression on his face. 65,000 gold? He currently had 80,000… It didn’t cost that much money the last time he was here.
If Kiron had failed to kill Naro, then he wouldn’t have had enough to buy this Crimson Blade. It wasn’t that he didn’t want to spend money on the Crimson Blade, it was just that he was surprised.
Kiron took the money out of his interspatial rings and handed them over to the shopkeeper as he put the Crimson Blade into his interspatial ring. “Thank you.” Kiron said as he started walking towards the exit of the weaponry.
“Hey, can I ask you something? Just how are you able to lift that Crimson Blade so easily? I even have a soul beast, but I can’t lift it properly!” The shopkeeper looked at Kiron with a hint of curiosity in his eyes
Kiron turned around and smiled at the shopkeeper, “Some things are best kept secret.” Kiron said before he started walking away towards Shion.
Shion saw Kiron coming towards him, and before he could say a single word, Kiron had already taken out the Crimson Blade!
“Incredible! What’s the name of the sword?” Shion had a hint of amazement in his voice as he spoke. Even if he wasn’t in need of any weapons, he could still recognize a good one if he saw it!
Kiron looked at the Crimson Blade, “A name? Hmm… Crimson Devourer!” Kiron nodded in agreement to his own words. He liked that name!
Shion on the other hand, he was happy that Kiron had finally bought a weapon! Because now it was time to buy some delicious food and celebrate!
They went over to the marketplace and bough some good meat, paying more than 100 gold coins for one large meal!
“Hey Shion, let’s go make a camp fire outside the city, we can eat the food there!” Kiron said as he put the food into his interspatial ring and climbed up on Shion’s back.
Shion nodded in agreement, he then took off.
… They arrived near the forests.
Kiron brought some wood out of his interspatial ring and put them on the ground. Shion then blew some fire at the wood.
They were sitting around the camp fire, eating delicious food and enjoying the scenery. The moon was shining down upon them.
“This might be one of our last peaceful moments! Once the tournament is over and we finish visiting my mother, we’ll start our adventure!” Kiron said as he laid on the ground, staring at the stars in the sky.
Shion was looking forward to the start of their adventure, “Yea! And when we are strong enough, we can go into the Chaotic Lands!” Shion knew that most dragons were located within the Chaotic Lands, so he really wanted to go there and meet some of his kind!
The night continued with Shion and Kiron talking about their future adventures. This was just the beginning of their lives!
Kiron pointed towards the sky, “And our adventures won’t end just here! If the higher realms truly does exist, then we will one day end up there!” Kiron thought back to Baroona as he spoke. There was a lot of rumors regarding Baroona. Some says he is dead, while some says he ascended to the higher realms!
Shion was about to speak, but he was interrupted by someone. “Could you spare me some food?” An old, mysterious man appeared behind Kiron and Shion. Kiron was stunned upon hearing the voice of an old man behind him, he hadn’t noticed his presence at all!
