The Legend of the Demon Hunter

After dealing with the Xinyi Gang, Xiao Zhu also decided to leave Baifan Town.

Early that morning, Xiao Zhu went to Le Tian Shang Cheng's residence to say goodbye. He knocked on the door, and Le Tian Shang Cheng opened the door and saw that it was Xiao Zhu. A happy smile spread across his face, and he said, "My dear nephew, please come in!"

Xiao Zhu stopped at the door and waved his hand, saying, "Uncle, that's not necessary. I'm here to say goodbye. I've been bothering you a lot these days, and I plan to leave for Haining City today."

Hearing that Xiao Zhu was leaving, Le Tian Shang Cheng showed a disappointed look on his face and said, "Nephew, are you leaving now? Why don't you stay a few more days? What's the point of bothering me? If it weren't for nephew who saved us from danger many times, how could my family be where we are today?"

"Uncle, I still have things to deal with in Haining City, so I won't stay any longer." Xiao Zhu declined.

"Okay, okay! Since my dear nephew still has things to do, there is no reason for me to force you to stay. But if you have time in the future, I hope you can come back to visit my family more often." Letian Shangcheng said sincerely.

"No problem, uncle. I'll leave first then." Xiao Zhu bowed and prepared to leave.

But just as Xiao Zhu turned around, Le Tian Shang Cheng suddenly said, "My dear nephew, I have something else to ask you. Rou'er told me a few days ago that you must go to her place before you leave."

Hearing this, Xiao Zhu was stunned. Letianrou grew up in a large family and has always been introverted. Why did she want to meet him alone? What was the reason?

Although Xiao Zhu was confused, he still nodded and said, "Okay, uncle, I'll go find Rou'er right away. I almost forgot that I should tell her something else."

Xiao Zhu walked straight to Letianrou's room. Just as he was about to knock on the door, he heard the door creak open.

Le Tianrou's outfit today was very delicate, and coupled with her soft face, Xiao Zhu's eyes lit up, but Xiao Zhu immediately retracted his gaze and asked, "Rou'er, I plan to leave today. Do you have anything to talk to me about?"

Le Tianrou nodded gently. She did not answer directly, but said, "Brother Xiao, come in and talk!"

Xiao Zhu hesitated for a moment, but finally walked into Le Tianrou's boudoir. Her room was decorated in a simple and elegant style, which was very consistent with her personality.

"Brother Xiao, you rescued Rouer from the hands of those evil Xinyi Gang thugs. Rouer really doesn't know how to repay you." Letianrou looked at Xiao Zhu, and Xiao Zhu could feel the burning affection in his eyes.

Xiao Zhu avoided the gaze and said, "Rou'er, it's nothing. I believe that anyone with a sense of justice would do the same."

"Brother Xiao, since you have come to Baifan Town, why don't you stay a little longer? I heard that the fishing port in Baifan Town is very prosperous, and there are many precious seafoods there. Rouer also wants to ask Brother Xiao to accompany her for a walk there." Letianrou lowered her head and asked shyly.

Xiao Zhu knew what Letianrou was really thinking, but at this moment, he had no intention of getting involved in a romantic relationship. He shook his head decisively and said, "No, Rou'er, I have important things to deal with in Haining City. Let Uncle Letian go with you!"

Le Tianrou was thoughtful and understood Xiao Zhu's idea. A hint of disappointment flashed in her eyes. Then she took out an item from the table behind her and handed it to Xiao Zhu. She said, "Brother Xiao, you have profound cultivation, but it's a pity that Rou'er is just an ordinary person. But Rou'er has an item here that may be useful to you."

Xiao Zhu saw that Letianrou was holding a white jade bracelet in her jade hand. It looked like a storage bracelet, but its color and texture were very different from those of ordinary storage bracelets.

"What is this?" Xiao Zhu asked puzzledly.

"The Letian family makes a living by refining storage jade bracelets. This is a piece of luminous amber that the previous clan leader accidentally discovered when mining jade. It is extremely rare, and the storage jade bracelet made with it not only has a storage space ten times larger than an ordinary one, but more peculiarly, it has the miraculous effect of calming the soul and soothing the mind, so it can store living things, and even the souls of living people can be stored in it. After dad succeeded as the clan leader of the family, he gave this luminous amber bracelet to Rou'er, but Rou'er is just an ordinary person, and she can't do anything with it, so I'll give it to Brother Xiao today!" Letian said gently.

"No, Rou'er, this is too expensive." Xiao Zhu refused instinctively.

Le Tianrou looked at Xiao Zhu, and two lines of tears flowed from the corners of her eyes. She choked and said, "Rou'er knows that I am not from the same world as Brother Xiao, but this is the only thing Rou'er can do for Brother Xiao. Just think of it as a thought. Will Brother Xiao refuse it?"

Seeing Letianrou in tears, Xiao Zhu was at a loss. He stammered, "No, no, Rouer, I..."

Le Tianrou handed the shimmering amber bracelet to Xiao Zhu, who took it woodenly and said, "Rou'er, don't cry. I'll take it."

Seeing Xiao Zhu accept the item, Le Tianrou stopped crying and said, "Brother Xiao, let me put it on for you!"

Xiao Zhu nodded. Letianrou stretched out her jade hand and held Xiao Zhu's arm. She gently put the luminous amber bracelet on Xiao Zhu's left wrist. It looked quite beautiful after she put it on.

"Rou'er, thank you." Xiao Zhu said sincerely.

"Brother Xiao, please come back here often when you have time." Letianrou knew in her heart that she could not keep Xiao Zhu, so she said.

"Yeah." Xiao Zhu nodded and then left the room. He did not choose to fly, but walked towards the Baifan Town Pier.

Letian Shangcheng stood at the gate of the courtyard, watching Xiao Zhu's disappearing back. How could he not know what his daughter was thinking? He sighed softly, then closed the gate.

……

Half an hour later.

Xiao Zhu came to the Baifan Town Pier. In fact, he could have chosen to fly directly to Haining City, but he heard that there was a direct ship to Haining City, and he had never been out to sea by boat, so he decided to experience it.

"We sincerely invite demon hunters to join the ship. We require beginner demon hunters or above. The price is fifty silver coins. The price will be doubled for water demon hunters."

"We sincerely invite demon hunters to join the ship. We require intermediate demon hunters or above. The price is 100 silver coins. The price will be doubled for water demon hunters."

"We sincerely invite demon hunters to come with us. We only accept high-level demon hunters. The price is 200 silver coins. The price for water demon hunters will be doubled."

As soon as he arrived at the dock, Xiao Zhu saw a wide variety of advertisements. He looked at them for a while before he realized that there were magical beasts on the sea. If ordinary fishermen went out to sea directly, their lives would be in danger if they encountered magical beasts. Therefore, they could only invite magical hunters to accompany them for protection. These magical hunters were called shipboard magical hunters, and the captain was responsible for paying the shipboard magical hunters, and the fees paid were quite high. It can be seen that the benefits of going out to sea are also huge.

Xiao Zhu observed for a long time and gradually discovered a pattern. Generally speaking, the larger the ship, the farther its route is from the coast, and the higher the requirements for the accompanying demon hunter. Small boats generally sail along the coastline, so the required demon hunters are of a lower level.

It seems that the distribution of magical beasts in the sea also shows an obvious pattern. The deeper the magical beast is in the sea, the higher its level is.

However, there were no demon hunters at the Soul Hunter level invited here. Xiao Zhu thought about it and understood that demon hunters above the Soul Hunter level had the ability to fly and would not take the boat to suffer this hardship. Besides, the Soul Hunter would not take a few hundred silver coins seriously, and the captain could not afford more silver coins.

It was Xiao Zhu's first time to go out to sea, and he also wanted to go to the deep sea to see what was going on, so he found a large ship called the Conch. He asked a crew member on the shore, "Excuse me, are they still recruiting demon hunters here?"

The crew member saw that Xiao Zhu was very young and asked, "We only recruit high-level demon hunters here. Do you see clearly?"

Xiao Zhu nodded and said, "Yes, I am a high-level demon hunter."

The crew member looked at Xiao Zhu in disbelief, but since the other party said so, he definitely didn't dare to offend a high-level demon hunter, so he asked: "Then what is your bloodline attribute?"

Xiao Zhu didn't want to attract too much attention, so he answered, "Fire."

After hearing Xiao Zhu's answer, the crew said, "Come aboard with me!"
