After finishing all the Grey Wolves, Yun Lintian put his bow down and observed the surroundings briefly before going to the woman's side and handed a healing pill to her. "Take it."

The woman was startled for a second and hurriedly received the healing pill with gratitude. "Thank you, Senior. You've saved our lives."

Yun Lintian said nothing and turned to look at the man who was slowly approaching him. 

The man cupped his fists and said, "Thank you, Senior." There was a trace of vigilance in his eyes while he sent a signal to her sister, indicating she shouldn't eat that pill.

Yun Lintian wasn't angry, as it was understandable. This world was too cruel to trust anyone easily, even though that person was your savior. He asked, "Why are you two out here? Don't you aware of the profound beast tide?"

The man glanced at her sister and replied, "It's because of the profound beast tide that's why we have to come here." Seeing Yun Lintian's puzzled expression, he explained further, "The profound beast tide causes a food shortage problem throughout the entire Spring Wind Nation. We cannot eat the profound beast's meat since it has poison within it. Hence, the only thing we can eat is domestic crops."

"However, with a huge amount of populations, the crops we cultivating are simply not enough to feed everyone. Not to mention the price of those spirit crops is ten times higher than a normal price. The ordinary people could not afford them. As for why we come here, we want to hunt these profound beasts and sell their remains for food."

Listening to this, Yun Lintian immediately understood the general situation. He was puzzled slightly at first. Since the Spring Wind Nation had no snow, it should be easier to plant more crops, but he later understood. With the Profound Beasts rampaging everywhere, the ordinary farmer simply could not protect their own land. As for profound practitioners, only a few of them were willing to become a farmer or protecting someone's land without a reward.

"What's about the royal clan? They never help out at all?" Yun Lintian asked.

The man shook his head. "We never heard any news from them again since last month."

Yun Lintian's brows furrowed as he thought it was strange… Could it be the Poison Valley do something on them?

The man went to the woman's side, checking her wounds, and whispered, "Let's go back."

The woman was confused and did not understand why her big brother was so cautious toward their savior. She looked at the healing pill in her hand and became hesitant.

The man snatched the healing pill away and turned to Yun Lintian. "Senior, we are going back to the town. Do you want to go with us?"

Their actions did not escape Yun Lintian's eyes, but he said nothing about it. He turned to the Grey Wolves' remains and said, "I'll take care of these remains first."

The man nodded his head and offered his help. "Do you want our help?"

Yun Lintian replied. "Sure."

Following that, the three of them were busy extracting valuable parts from the Grey Wolves' remains. It took them an hour before they completed all the works.

Yun Lintian handed Grey Wolf's bones and eyes to the man and said, "I don't want these things. You can have them."

The man hesitated before finally accepted them. It would be a lie if he said he didn't want them. 

Seeing Yun Lintian only picked the Grey Wolf's meat, the man reminded, "Senior, I think you should throw them away. They contain potent poison. If you are careless for a second, your life will be in danger."

Yun Lintian smiled and said, "Don't worry. I know what to do… By the way, is there profound beast's meat on sale over there in the town? I want to buy a lot of them." 

The man was confused. Why would Yun Lintian want these poisoned things? He replied, "There is, but no one willing to buy it… May I ask why would Senior want to buy it?"

Yun Lintian came up with a lie. "I am studying medicine. Right now, I am trying to figure out a cure for this poison. That's why I need a lot of samples."

The man immediately understood, and a trace of admiration was born within his heart. "I wish Senior good luck on your research."

"Let's go." Yun Lintian beckoned and let the siblings lead the way.

Along the way, Yun Lintian learned the siblings' identity. The man was Chu Heng, and the woman was Chu Mi. Both of them was a native of Hazy Breeze Town. Their family was poor, but both were quite talented and were qualified to enter the profound ways. They had become the only hope of the family since then.

Yun Lintian could still see the vigilance from Chu Heng's body language and secretly nodded his head inwardly. With this trait, Chu Heng's survival rate in this cruel world would increase tremendously. 

An hour later, Yun Lintian's group had arrived at the Hazy Breeze Town. It was a relatively large town, similar to the Snow Wind Town in the War Song Nation. When Yun Lintian passed through the giant iron gate, he suddenly felt someone was staring intensively at him. He glanced sideways in that person's direction and saw a bald man with a big belly standing there with his eyes fixated on his group.

Yun Lintian drew closer to Chu Heng and whispered, "Do you have any enemy here?"

Chu Heng was puzzled slightly and coincidentally to see the bald man in the distance. He immediately understood the situation as he replied in a low voice, "That man is Hei Fu, the boss of the biggest food supplier in the town. He's always suppressing everyone by demanding a high price for food."

"So, he is a local tyrant, huh?" Yun Lintian spoke.

Chu Heng nodded his head and quickly brought Yun Lintian away through the narrowed streets.

The bald man, Hei Fu, stared at Yun Lintian's group until they disappeared from his sight before he turned to a stout man on his side. "Send someone to watch that man earlier."
