"Matriarch, we wish to depart to train ourselves, we would like to ask your permission." The twin brothers, Mo Duan and Mo Tian spoke full of determination.
Shang Ting smiled at the two: "Then, I would like it if you two take care of yourselves, you are now the elders of the Mo Family, your two are part of the family from the start and whatever you do, the Mo Family has your back."
The twins nodded, Mo Tian then spoke: "Matriarch, we will come back in eight months to see the young master/young miss' birth."
"You should get some preparation before you start your travel." Shang Ting spoke.
The twins smiled and spoke: "Matriarch, we've already made all of the preparation we can."
"Oh, then where will you be heading for your journey?" Shang Ting asked.
The twins looked at each other and smiled: "Matriarch, we will go to the Beast Kin's territory."
Shang Ting smiled as she nods her head: "Take care, both of you."
The twins clasped their hands and respectfully spoke: "Until we come back again Matriarch."
Shang Ting smiled as she nods and waved her hand.
The twins depart, meanwhile, Shang Ting looked at the south, her hands clenched into a fist.
Shang Mingzi made her way and spoke: "Sister, please, you're not an individual, you're also carrying my nephew/niece, you should calm yourself, even until your husband returns."
Shang Ting smiled: "I know."
Still, the rage in her eyes can be seen before she made her way back to her room.
Shang Mingzi looked at her sister completely worried; "Brother-in-law saved us, I'll do my best to keep her in check until he comes home."
She blamed herself, she couldn't even restrain herself or lie about the event, she should've viewed things better, yet, she just had to say it at a day where Shang Ting should take care of herself better.
"I… I shouldn't have told her that our clan and everyone that has with connection with him was all killed, I should've told brother-in-law first…" She couldn't help but cry as she slumps on the ground.
Back to the Alchemy a.s.sociation.
Unknowingly to the disaster that's happening within the southern part of the Fallen Leaf Continent and the burning rage within Shang Ting's heart, Mo Xie continued with his plans.
What Mo Xie needs are resources, basically, spirit stones, herbs, and other materials that could help him building the Mo Family for the better progress, the bigger the greater.
And right now, instead of selling the pill recipes he couldn't refine due to cultivation gap, he'd decided to pa.s.s all beneficial and marketable pills to Yan Meng, he could earn more with that than selling the recipe.
He'd decided to ma.s.s-produce pills and sell it with the help of the Alchemy a.s.sociation's trade networks.
Mo Xie strode again to the Auction Hall, but immediately at the entrance, he was blocked by the guards.
"You again? You are already b" The guard couldn't even finish his words and noticed the token Mo Xie's been tossing.
The surrounding people noticed the shout and started to look at the guard's direction.
"Eh, what was that? Ba? Banned?"
Somebody also nods his head: "Yes, usually, the guards would merely prevent any suspicious individual, but if someone is banned, they would immediately take action, and look, that person is also posted within the board of unwanted people."
Some of the observers with keener sight looked at the thing that Mo Xie's tossing up and down: "Isn't that a guest elder token? Why is a guest elder being banned from the auction house?"
Everyone shrugged their shoulders, who will they ask?
He couldn't help but s-s-s-stutter: "T-t-t-, Esteemed guest elder token!"
"Oh, this? Bei Ming gifted it to me." Mo Xie stopped tossing it and placed it on his palm and checked: "Is this something great? He casually gave it to me though."
"Oh, an esteemed guest elder is banned at the auction house? That's new." An observer spoke.
A commotion started within the observer as they tried to guess what's happening.
Guest elder token is equal to the elders of the Alchemy a.s.sociation in status, but the esteemed guest elder token is bigger, it's comparable to the status of a palace master, what can a normal guard like him do?
The guard felt terrified, even the disciple token has higher status than them, what right does he have to block an esteemed guest elder's path then?
He didn't even need to think of which order to follow as he removed Mo Xie's photo from the bulletin board bowed: "Esteemed guest elder, I was merely looking at you with awe, please enter."
Mo Xie chuckles, he didn't even respond and continued his way, flicking the token from his hand.
The observers looked at Mo Xie's vanis.h.i.+ng figure and made another commotion.
"It seemed some sort of trouble happened within the auction hall."
Another one nodded: "Yes, maybe some sort of internal affair."
People started to make some conjecture, but mostly, created a new rumor.
Lee Fei Mang found it funny how Mo Xie conducted himself, but right now, she's feeling the greatest moment within her life, she could even toss the pinnacle grade pill right now if she can trade it to a moment where the time together with Yan Meng would stop.
But then, deep inside, she knew that something like this is superficial, Yan Meng is a man, and a man has its needs, they also have the responsibility of not letting their line end else it will end with Yan Meng being the greatest disgrace of their family.
And there will be a time where she'd need to let go: "If that were to happen, I am willing to give way." Lee Fei Mang spoke lightly.
Yan Meng looked at Fei Mang: "What was that? You said something?"
Lee Fei Mang smiled as she shook her head: "Nothing."
As she finished speaking, she placed her head on his shoulder, holding his arms tighter.
Mo Xie strode not fast nor slow, he got bored tossing the token and pinned it on the upper right part of his robe.
He made his way towards the location where he had appraised his recipes before.
A few breathes it took, Mo Xie arrived where he was before.
The appraiser this time is different, after all, the one appraiser earlier was dispatched to take care of Mo Xie.
"Oh, esteemed guest, what can I do to be of service?" This time, the elder seemed to have a better personality compared to the other one from before.
Mo Xie hid the token slightly with only 1/10th of it showing, clearly, he wants to smack some face.
"I'm here to auction some pills, I would like to get it appraised." Mo Xie's tone calms as he measures this guy's personality.
The appraiser nods his head: "Then, esteemed guest, I will be the one to appraise your things first, my name is Fu Tong."
Mo Xie nods his head and handed three pieces of pills.
Fu Tong smiled as he accepted the pills, but then, although his sense of smell for pills isn't on par with the Palace Master's sensitive pill smelling nose, as soon as he got the pills closer to him, he immediately smelled the thick heavenly aroma.
"This…" Fu Tong's hand shook, a person didn't need to be an appraiser to know that this pill is a great treasure, any random person that has knowledge about pills will immediately know.
Mo Xie smiled and spoke: "Well?"
Fu Tong has sweat all over his face before he smiled and replied: "Esteemed guest, I'm not qualified to rate this treasure, I need to call someone with higher expertise."
Mo Xie smiled, this is what he's waiting for, he nods his head: "Do as you will."
Fu Tong nods his head: "Then, please wait for this lowly one."
It only took a few seconds as rushed footsteps started to echo throughout the appraisal hall.
Mo Xie smiled, these steps became familiar to him, after all…
As soon as the elder appraiser came out of the room, he saw Mo Xie standing in front of the table with the three pieces of pills on top of it.
The elder appraiser smirked, the mere scent of it drove him extremely crazy, unlike the other experts of master level, he couldn't control himself and made his way to the table s.n.a.t.c.hing the three pills and sliding it on his robe's pocket.
"To think that you've come to give me these treasures." The elder appraiser spoke in a very righteous tone, his greed overtook his reason as he added: "I, Xue Fang Shan rarely owns anyone a favor, but you, you earned it, now tell me what you want in return for this pills."
Xue Fang Shan made it sound like Mo Xie came here to gift these pills in exchange for favor with such a dignified tone.
Fu Tong, the appraiser felt shaken; "Elder Fang Shan, that's not how we conduct within the Auction Hall, please return the pills now."
Fang Shan frowns: "Get out of my Auction hall, if you're disrespecting my rules, then, you are not needed here further!"
Fu Tong felt shaken, as one of the top elders of the auction hall, Xue Fang Shan really has the authority to expel him, a normal elder.
Fu Tong grits his teeth, this is daylight robbery in front of him, but he couldn't do anything at all.
Mo Xie seeing the display couldn't help but chuckle: "To think that you have the guts to steal from me.
Fu Tong nods his head since he's already expelled, he didn't have to hold himself: "A bandit within the organization, you should go to the mountains and do that trade instead, you'll definitely be amongst the well-renowned thief in whatever region you'll go to!"

Xue Fang Shan: "Haha, you think you have the right to speak? You're merel-"
Fang Shan couldn't even finish his words as a mighty force descended and slammed his face.
Pang!
Fang Shan flew and slammed on the door, the door is made out of a Lion's Pride Tree, it boasts toughness comparable to adamantium ore, but right now, Fang Shang broke it with his own body.
The sound of cracking bones was heard as he got slammed into it.
He groaned in pain as he staggeringly stood up: "W-who dares be audacious within my Auction Hall!"
A silhouette appeared from the shadow, her eyes fierce as she looked at Fang Shan.
Fang Shan trembled: "Hall M-master!"
"Your? Your auction hall?" Lee Fei Shan smirks, but her eyes clearly think otherwise, after all, killing intent filled the room immediately: "Since when had my auction hall became yours?"
Lee Fei Mang's thundering roar sounded sending Xue Fang Shan's trembling all over.
