The moment William arrived in the hall his eyes began searching for Jaden, the moment he saw his son he rushed forward and hugged him.
"My son, you are alive. You don't know how happy I am to see you again. When I heard about the news of your fall, I was devastated. I searched everywhere for you but I wasn't able to find you."
"It's Ok, father. Don't worry now that I am back, I don't have any plans to leave you again. Hmm can we now go eat something, it's been months since I had any proper meal." Jaden said while rubbing his stomach.
William smiled and said, "Of Course ,son. Let's go, I will tell the kitchen staff to prepare your favourite meal".
After saying that both father and son left for their home. After months of waiting Jaden finally got to eat proper food, he and his father talk all night long.
*******
Few Days Later,
Bam! Bam! Bam!
Amidst constant resounding collisions, Jaden immersed himself in his fistplay.
He pictured himself as the sea, the Profound Qi as the water, and his fist force as great waves dashing against the rocks and constantly gushing.
After a long time, he stopped, wiped sweat off his forehead, and sat down in the yard.
Jaden had made rapid progress in cultivating Titan Overlord Fist. He had already achieved the Great Completion Realm in just two days.
In Titan Overlord Fist , the first fist force was a sign of crossing the threshold, the second fist force was a sign of Minor Completion, and the third fist force was a sign of Great Completion. Now that he had achieved third fist force, he was not far from achieving the fourth fist force, which was a sign of the Completion Realm.
With his strength and physical force nowadays, Jaden was not afraid of martial artists at Foundation Establishment Realm Cultivator at all.
He did not rush to cultivate the scrolls in the storage ring, because it was more urgent to improve his cultivation.
“I have to find a way to increase my Profound Qi and overall body strength ,” Jaden murmured to himself.
He was now performing both Qi Cultivation and Body Refining at the same time. He needed a great amount of Rage Qi for Rage God Body Transformation Technique, but he didn't have any .
The only way to improve his Profound Qi was to devour Qi present in Beast Cores.
In addition to hunting for Beast Cores, he could also buy them with gold from any big shop in Imperial City.
However, they were not cheap. The higher the rank of demonic beast, the pricier its Beast Core was.
As far as Jaden knew, the Beast Core of a demonic beast with Lv 3 or 4 Qi Condensing Realm usually cost over one thousand of silver each.
After pondering for a while, he had an idea and walked to the Master Mansion.
“Haha! Jaden, you came just in time. I have something to ask you.”
In the Master Mansion, William smiled at his son and asked, “Jaden, I am very happy to hear that you can now cultivate. You must maintain this Progress.”
“Yes.” Jaden nodded.
“Haha! Good, you proved yourself to be my son.”
After hearing his son confirm it personally, William was very satisfied. He knew that Jaden might have encountered some miracles, but he did not inquire about them and just said encouragingly, “ Jaden, just keep trying. Even though your bloodline doesn’t have a high rank, you may still reach the Profound Core Realm one day.”
“Yes, Father.”
“Alright. Why are you here?”
“I have a favor to ask. Please help me,” Jaden answered earnestly.
William was a little bit surprised by Jaden’s seriousness and said, “Son, I’m your father, not a stranger. Tell me what you want, and as long as I can do it, I will never decline.”
“Father, I need 100,000 silver coins,” Jaden said.
He looked at his father nervously, for fear of refusal.
Hundred thousand silver coins was not a small sum. Usually, the salary of the entire guard unit of the clan for a whole year was 500,000 silver coins, so 100,000 of silver coins was more than the Jaden's monthly pocket money.
Jaden had asked for such a large quantity of silver coins because he wanted to buy a lot of Beast Cores. As long as he could get enough Beast Cores, his Qi reserves would soar, and along with it, his cultivation speed.
William was surprised. He stared at his son to make sure he was not kidding, but after a while, he nodded and said, “Wait here. I’ll be back in a minute.”
Then, he left.
He did not ask Jaden why he asked for so much because he trusted his son.
Jaden waited in silence, and soon, William returned.
“Here are the gold bank notes for 100,000 of gold. Take them!” William passed Jaden several gold bank notes.
Holding the bank notes, Jaden took a deep breath and said, “Father, I won’t let you down in the clan meeting in 2 months.”
…
Jaden headed toward the marketplace.
After an hour, he stood at the door of a big store. It had a gilded tablet with bold script that read: Heavenly Treasure Pavilion.
Heavenly Treasure Pavilion was a three-storey tower covering over 100 acres. It was the biggest store in the entire city. As long as you had enough money, you could get any cultivation skill, elixir, weapon, or anything else related to cultivation.
It was said that Heavenly Treasure Pavilion had powerful connections, belonged to a major chamber, and had branches in many cities in the empire.
It held so much power in Imperial Capital that even the top clans dared not to get in trouble with it.
“How can I help you?” asked a young and beautiful maid reverently as Jaden entered the pavilion.
“I want to buy some Beast Cores,” Jaden answered.
“You want to buy Beast Cores? Come with me!”
Jaden soon followed her to a counter that specializes in Beast Cores, where there stood an old man in gray. He smiled and asked, “Could you tell me what rank of Beast Cores you want to buy?”
“How much does the Beast Cores of Middle Level 1 cost?” Jaden asked.
A Beast Core of Middle Lv 1 was of Class 4 Lv 1, Class 5 Lv 1, or Class 6 Lv 1.
“Class 4 Lv 1 Beast Cores cost one thousand of silver coins each, Class 5 Lv 1 Beast Cores are two and a half thousand, and Class 6 Lv 1 Beast Cores are five thousand,” the old man answered.
“I’ll take 20 Class 5 Lv 1 Beast Cores,” Jaden said after some quick consideration.
He had devoured a lot of Beast Cores in Magical Beasts Forest, so he knew that Beast Cores of higher rank were more effective.
While the prices of Beast Cores doubled with each one level, his Martial Soul was only at Rank 3, so Class 5 Lv 1 Beast Cores were enough for him.
“What?”
The old man was so astonished, so he checked again:”Are you sure you are taking 20 Class 5 Lv 1 Beast Cores?”
“Yes, is there a problem?” Jaden asked.
“I can’t call the shots for such a grand deal. I need to inform the leader of the Pavilion. Please wait a moment!” the old man answered and rushed into the backyard of Heavenly Treasure Pavilion.
Jaden could do nothing but wait.
Soon, the old man rushed back and told Jaden, “The leader of the Pavilion would like to meet you.”
“Show me the way,” Jaden said.
In the backyard of Heavenly Treasure Pavilion, there was a small house. Jaden followed the old man into a side hall.
He was stunned when he got inside.
There was an extraordinarily stunning woman sitting in the hall.
She looked like she was in her late 20s, with refined facial features on her charming face, and her skin was snow-white. She wore a tight leather skirt that fit her curvy body perfectly.
This was an enchanting beauty with peerless charm!
She was the leader of the Pavilion, Tara Silverfox.
