I Have a Manor in the Post-apocalyptic Era

It was obvious that it was not the first time the boy called Xiang Tian had caused a furnace to explode.

However, Xiang Tian’s eyes were filled with confidence this time; he had accumulated experience from his past failures and was confident with the pill making this time.

Poof

A faint fragrance came out from the pill furnace and soon permeates the air within every corner of the Smithy, even the metahumans who were passing by the Smithy were attracted by the fragrance.

“Atta Boy, you succeeded?”

The Smiths who were making fun of Xiang Tian earlier were all wearing shocked expressions.

Xiang Tian revealed a delighted face, this was the first Rank 2 pills he had successfully created. Other than completing the work assigned to him every week, Xiang Tian has been using spare time to create Rank 2 pills but he had failed. This was his first success, but this success was closely related to the failures he had in the past.

Xiang Tian slowly opened the furnace, a total of nineteen Rank 2 pills were inside.

Rank 2 Pill, Vitality Pill. Consuming it the first time can permanently boost the Physique of a person by 5%. The second time gives a 3% increase, while a third time increases by 1%, nothing will happen if consumed the fourth time and onwards. This meant that the Vitality Pill is only useful for three times, but this did not reduce the passion that Martialist or Strength-Type metahumans have towards this pill.

“Wonderful! It is a success!”

Seeing the completed Vitality Pills, Xiang Tian’s face got even more excited. The others also spoke in envious tones:

“Xiang Tian will be able to obtain even more food now, and might even be able to enter the City Center.”

“The City Center is directly under the giant rock. It is said that living there can stir the meta-energy within the body and allow a person to promote without requiring energy crystals.”

“Looks like we need to work hard and enter City Center as well.”

Seeing Xiang Tian’s success has motivated the Smiths within the Smithy, the sounds of metal clashing continue to ring within the building.

Yang Tian soon heard about the success shortly after he returned to Sky Halberd Palace.

“Xiang Tian has succeeded in making Vitality Pills?”

Yang Tian was very surprised because it has only been half a month since Xiang Tian had awakened his ability, and the latter was able to create Vitality Pills that are known for having above-average difficult amongst Rank 2 Pills, Yang Tian could not help but feel shocked.

“I have brought the Vitality Pills.”

Of the nineteen Vitality Pills, ten of the best quality was presented to Yang Tian.

“The quality is pretty good.”

Yang Tian tossed a pill into his mouth. The Vitality Pill turned into a streak of pure energy and started revolving within Yang Tian’s body.

Yang Tian was practicing the Vajra Divine Art and has a Physique that was equivalent to a High Rank 4 Martialist. After refining the first Vitality Pill, Yang Tian’s Physique improved by quite a lot from the pill’s boost; he quickly consumed the second and third pill.

Although Yang Tian had received a boost, it was not enough for him to pay much attention as they were only Rank 2 pills. Due to Yang Tian’s High Rank 4 Physique, only the first pill provided a clear improvement, while the combined effect of the remaining two pills was not as good as the first.

“Give the rest to Wang Yu and the others!”

Yang Tian ordered the metahuman to leave after consuming the three pills, as for what rewards to give, Wang Yu and the rest would deal with it; minor matters like this did not require his participation.

Yang Tian has more important matters to deal with now, how to work with the Dark Elf and trigger the effect that he had with Lina.

The Dark Elf was arranged to stay in a building directly opposite of Lina’s accommodations, the Dark Creatures remained at the outskirts of Sky Halberd King Manor, serving as patrol guards.

However, what made Yang Tian feel strange was that the activeness of the Dark Energy was not as great as the Light Energy. 

“Hmm? Why is she back again?”

Yang Tian sensed the energy of thunder slowly approaching, it was from the Thunder Sword Saintess, Ji Tian Luo.

Ji Tian Luo was riding on her flying sword when she appeared outside the Sky Halberd King Manor, her appearance also caused the Dark Giant Komodo to roar loudly. The Dark Creatures had not met Ji Tian Luo before and were treating her as an invader.

Ji Tian Luo was slightly shocked when the Dark Giant Komodo roared at her. It has only been a short time since she last came and Yang Tian had tamed so many powerful creatures?

Ji Tian Luo knew long ago that Yang Tian is a Beast Tamer, and also knew that Yang Tian had eaten the Flame Flame Fruit. There were several Beast Tamers and Devil Fruit Users in C City as well; that was why Ji Tian Luo did not feel strange about his abilities.

Ji Tian Luo detected an approaching energy signature, and Yang Tian came out from Sky Halberd King Manor. He spoke to Ji Tian Luo in a cold tone:

“Are you here to break the agreement?”

“You… can’t you just discuss things properly? When did I offend you?”

Ji Tian Luo instantly felt angry when she heard Yang Tian’s cold voice.

“Okay, tell me why you are here then.”

Ji Tian Luo was still annoyed but said:

“All members that are conferred a military rank are to attend the meeting convened in C City tomorrow.”

“I need to attend meetings? So troublesome?” Yang Tian started to complain.

“There might be some benefits to gain.”

Ji Tian Luo changed her annoyed tone to an alluring one.

“Fine, I will take a look tomorrow.”

Yang Tian confidently replied because he was now a Rank 4 Martialist with an Early Rank 4 Flame Ability.

Ji Tian Luo saw that Yang Tian had no intention to invite her in after she finished speaking, so she gave him a sharp glare and left, scolding Yang Tian for being a douchebag in her heart.

“I am really curious about what schemes you guys are planning.”

After Ji Tian Luo left, Yang Tian mumbled to himself. He returned to Sky Halberd Palace and summoned for Wang Yu trio.

“Tomorrow, Lei Xing and I will pay C City a visit, the two of you watch over Sky Halberd Domain.”

“Okay.”

The main reason Yang Tian brought Lei Xing was that the latter had successfully crafted a Rank 3 Flying-Type Magic Energy Equipment. One of the Rank 3 blueprints that C City offered them was this Flying Equipment.

The next day, Lei Xing was prepared to depart and he was waiting for Yang Tian outside Sky Halberd Palace.

“So excited?”

“Heh heh” Lei Xing chuckled embarrassingly.

Next to Lei Xing were two Mid Rank 3 Flying-Type Dark Slimes that he has prepared.

C City was located Northwest of Sky Halberd Domain, it will take less than half a day to reach there with the Dark Slime’s speed. Departing early in the morning meant that they would reach C City around noon.

“Domain Lord, will we be expecting danger?”

Lei Xing asked with a concerned expression as he did not know how strong C City was. Even though Lei Xing was armed to the teeth now, he was still uncertain.
