Fang Xiu carefully searched the website for the materials he needed.
But out of the seven materials, he could only find four.
He searched for the remaining three, but they weren’t there.
’I’ll have to find another way.’
’I should ask around first!’
After a moment’s thought, Fang Xiu called Yue Tianrui directly.
RING... RING... RING...
After a few seconds, the call connected.
"Fang Xiu, is there something you need?"
Yue Tianrui sounded busy on the other end.
Fang Xiu could tell. "Principal, I’d like to ask you about a few materials. I was wondering if you have a moment?"
"Yes, I’m a little busy at the moment. How about I finish up and call you back?" Yue Tianrui said.
"Okay!"
Fang Xiu nodded slightly.
Then he hung up the phone.
"Kajimi, I’ve already purchased four of the materials, but I can’t find the last three for sale."
Fang Xiu looked at the Succubus beside him and said, "But don’t worry. As soon as I find out where to get these materials, we’ll set out immediately!"
"Yes, Master!"
A smile appeared on Kajimi’s face.
She wasn’t one to push for Advancing her own strength.
But deep down, who doesn’t truly crave Power?
And now that Fang Xiu was helping her increase her strength, how could Kajimi not be grateful?
"Thank you, Master!"
At this thought, Kajimi immediately knelt on one knee.
"Kajimi, what are you doing? Your strength increasing benefits me too. There’s nothing to be so grateful for."
Fang Xiu shook his head helplessly and helped Kajimi to her feet.
Just then, Fang Xiu felt a flicker of Kajimi’s emotions.
It was a fluctuation completely unrelated to their contract.
This, of course, struck Fang Xiu as a bit strange.
Fang Xiu tended not to dwell on things he couldn’t figure out.
"Yes, Master. Once my strength has increased, I will be sure to kill more Demon Beasts for you!" Kajimi said.
Her heart was changing, and other... emotions were stirring within it.
But her loyalty to Fang Xiu would never change.
This was true of both the contract and Kajimi’s genuine feelings.
"Yes, we’ll hunt Demon Beasts together!"
Fang Xiu smiled and nodded, not saying anything more.
After waiting for about ten minutes, Yue Tianrui finally called back.
"Principal!"
Fang Xiu answered the phone.
"Fang Xiu, what materials do you need? If they’re Refining Materials, I have some here!"
Yue Tianrui got straight to the point.
Fang Xiu said, "Principal, I don’t know if these are actually Refining Materials, but I need them very badly right now!"
Naturally, Fang Xiu couldn’t explain everything clearly.
This matter involved Kajimi.
Fang Xiu didn’t want people to know he had a contracted Succubus.
After all, if word of this got out, it wouldn’t be good for him or for Kajimi.
Unless Fang Xiu’s strength could become even greater.
Otherwise, the appearance of a Succubus might make some high-Level experts uncomfortable.
"Is that so? Then tell me what they are, and I’ll see if I have them."
Yue Tianrui didn’t know what Refining Materials Fang Xiu wanted, so he just told him to list them.
’Fang Xiu probably doesn’t know about this site yet, and he wouldn’t have enough Points anyway. I can just get them for him if needed.’
Of course, this was all just what Yue Tianrui was thinking.
He didn’t know that Fang Xiu had, in fact, already searched the Awakener Website.
"Principal, I need three materials: Wind Nether Jade, Cyan Wave Snake Scale, and Celestial Tiger Demon Fire!"
Fang Xiu told Principal Yue Tianrui the last three materials he needed.
After all, Fang Xiu had no idea where he could possibly find these three items.
"Wind Nether Jade, Cyan Wave Snake Scale, and Celestial Tiger Demon Fire? This... what do you need these three materials for?"
Yue Tianrui truly lived up to his reputation as a Level 60+ expert.
The moment he heard the names of these three materials, it was clear he recognized them.
This was also why Fang Xiu had called Yue Tianrui directly instead of Zhao Yao.
Although Zhao Yao sold such materials.
He might know more than Yue Tianrui, and it was even possible his shop had these three materials in stock.
But Fang Xiu was worried that Zhao Yao knew too much.
After all, this was a merchant who sold materials and other goods, and he even knew about Demon Beasts.
Fang Xiu couldn’t be sure that Zhao Yao wouldn’t be able to piece things together if he heard the names of these three materials.
In that case, he might not be able to keep Kajimi a secret.
Besides, would a man who hated Demon Beasts to the bone really spare a Succubus?
Fang Xiu didn’t know.
So, asking Yue Tianrui was the safest option.
His Level was high, so he was bound to know more.
But guessing something based on just three materials was obviously quite difficult.
Just like now—even though Yue Tianrui was a little surprised, he still had no idea what Fang Xiu wanted these materials for.
"I got a diagram that requires these materials. Principal, do you know where I might buy, or... find them?" Fang Xiu asked directly.
Yue Tianrui was silent for a moment.
Fang Xiu could hear the sound of a keyboard clacking on the other end.
"Ahem. None of these three are here?"
Yue Tianrui searched the Awakener Website but found nothing.
This left Yue Tianrui feeling a bit helpless.
"What isn’t there?"
Listening in, Fang Xiu could already make a rough guess.
’Yue Tianrui is probably searching the Awakener Website.’
But Fang Xiu couldn’t very well tell him that he had already searched the site himself.
"It’s nothing. These three are all extremely rare Refining Materials. They aren’t considered high-grade, but their rarity makes them incredibly expensive—to the point where you can’t find a seller even if you have the money."
At this point, Yue Tianrui could only speak with a tone of resignation.
Hearing this, Fang Xiu asked, "Then Principal, where can I go to find these three materials?"
"Well..."
Yue Tianrui thought for a moment, then said, "I once heard that all three of these Refining Materials have appeared in the Twenty-third Gate World!"
"All three of them?"
Fang Xiu hadn’t expected that all three materials would appear together in a single Gate World.
’If I go looking there, does that mean I won’t have to run to a different Gate World for each one?’
"Yes. However, if you want to go searching in the Twenty-third Gate World, I’m afraid it might be a bit difficult!" Yue Tianrui said helplessly.
Hearing this, Fang Xiu was taken aback. "Why?"
"That place isn’t considered especially perilous, but it’s nothing like the Seventh Gate World. To go there, you need to be at least Level 15 to enter. Have you... reached that yet?" Yue Tianrui asked.
Although he didn’t know what Fang Xiu wanted the Wind Nether Jade, Cyan Wave Snake Scale, and Celestial Tiger Demon Fire for.
But that place was extremely dangerous, and he couldn’t let Fang Xiu take such a risk.
