Seeing Su Yunchen and the other person not speaking, Su Yunlie then turned to Su Han and smiled, "It's alright if you've used them all up, that just proves you cultivate quickly. However, within my authority, I can only give you a three-year portion, anything more and you'll have to strive for it yourself."
"Mm," Su Han nodded.
"Han'er, this is the situation."
Su Yunming said, "I was just discussing with your uncle about going to the Demon Beast Mountain Range tomorrow with the Guard of the Su Family. It would be a good opportunity for you to gain some experience, how about it?"
"Okay," Su Han said.
"No way!"
Su Yunchen jumped out to oppose again, "Su Han is not yet qualified to join the Guard Team on a trip to the Demon Beast Mountain Range, he would only slow them down!"
"You're just worried Han'er will get a share of the Guard Team's loot, aren't you?" Su Yunming said with a cold laugh.
The Guard of the Su Family would go to the Demon Beast Mountain Range once every month.
The spiritual objects that Su Han had used previously came from these trips.
But there was a rule in the Su Family that young members could follow the Guard Team to the Demon Beast Mountain Range and they would also get a share of the obtained items.
Clearly, Su Yunchen opposed Su Han joining the expedition because of this—after all, if Su Han got a bit more, his own son and others would get less.
As for whether Su Han was strong enough?
That was something Su Yunchen could not care less about—in his mind, he would have been only too happy if Su Han died in the Demon Beast Mountain Range.
"It's not that Su Han can't go, but then Mingxuan and Minghui must also go. They have never had the chance to train with the Guard Team at the Demon Beast Mountain Range before," Su Yunpeng stood up to say.
"Are you sure they are strong enough?" Su Yunlie asked.
"Of course," Su Yunming scoffed.
What a joke, with the Guard of the Su Family present, what did it matter if they weren't strong enough? The Guard Team would naturally protect his sons.
"Then it's settled, Mingxuan and Minghui will also go, let's decide on this," Su Yunlie said.
...
The next morning, at the gate of the Su Family Residence.
Dozens of people gathered there, including Su Han.
Of course, Su Mingxuan and Su Minghui were also among them.
The captain of the Guard Team was a middle-aged man named Pang Qing, a Guest Elder of the Su Family with a cultivation base at the Dragon Blood Realm Late Stage.
There were also two deputy captains, Zhang Hai and Hu Feng, both were Guest Elders of the Su Family with cultivation bases at the Dragon Blood Realm Mid-Stage.
As for the other guards, they were all from the Su Family and at the Dragon Blood Realm Early Stage.
After the Dragon Vein Realm comes the Dragon Blood Realm.
The strength of the Dragon Blood Realm depends on how many Dragon Veins were opened during the time in the Dragon Vein Realm.
The more Dragon Veins opened, the richer the blood and qi in the Dragon Blood Realm would be, and the more potent the Dragon Qi.
"Everyone is here, let's set off," Pang Qing said.
Mounted on a Second Order Unicorn, Pang Qing led the way. This Unicorn had the strength equivalent to a human at the Dragon Blood Realm, a being Pang Qing had subdued with his own power.
Among the demon beasts, the Dragon Clan is the most powerful.
It is said that the first cultivators on the Dragon Martial Continent were those who studied the blood of the Dragon Clan to divide the realms of cultivation, and they even once subdued a Divine Dragon to become Dragon Knights!
For the current Dragon Martial Continent, a Dragon Knight is an existence from legends, capable of annihilating worlds with a mere wave of their hand.
If a real battle were to occur, there would be no need for a Dragon Knight to act; just that Divine Dragon alone could sweep away all foes!
"Hmph, Su Han, just make sure you don't die in the Demon Beast Mountain Range," Su Mingxuan glared at Su Han and then proceeded to follow the Guard Team.
Su Minghui also mocked, "You're supposed to be a genius, the genius of our Su Family. If you were to die in the Demon Beast Mountain Range, you would bring disgrace upon your father's name."
"Early in the morning, have you two eaten shit? Why are your mouths so foul?" Su Han said indifferently, eyes fixed on the path ahead.
The guards overheard Su Han's and Su Mingxuan's conversation and couldn't help but snicker, thinking to themselves that Su Han was not only talented in cultivation, but also sharp with words.
"There's no need to play tough here. If you encounter danger, we won't be able to save you. After all, you chose to come along on your own, right?" Su Mingxuan said with a cold huff.
"Your brain doesn't work well." Su Han spat out a few words.
...
After about half a day's journey, the vast Demon Beast Mountain Range came into everyone's view.
The Demon Beast Mountain Range stretched across the land far and wide, encircling the entire Dongling Kingdom.
Legend had it that the mountain range was transformed from the corpse of a giant dragon, but few believed this tale.
"We're at the edge of the Demon Beast Mountain Range now."
Pang Qing turned around and said to the three young masters, Su Han, Su Mingxuan, and Su Minghui, "There are numerous dangers within the Demon Beast Mountain Range. Although we will protect you, you must also be cautious. Do not stray from the group. Many powerful beings reside within the mountain range, and with our strength, we can only search for spiritual objects along the periphery."
All three nodded in agreement.
"Good. Let's rest briefly, then we'll enter the mountain range," Pang Qing instructed.
Soon, the guard team made their way towards the mountains.
Although it was just the fringe, the dense, towering trees blocked out the sunlight, casting darkness over the area.
The surroundings were even cloaked with bushes over two meters tall, with pairs of green eyes flickering intermittently.
"Those are just civet cats, ordinary wild beasts, no need to pay them any mind," Pang Qing explained.
"Spirit Mist Grass!"
An elated voice suddenly rang out – a guard of the Su Family had discovered some Spirit Mist Grass.
"Haha, what a great start! Finding Spirit Mist Grass here means our harvest this time won't be bad," the deputy captain Hu Feng laughed heartily.
"Be careful. Spiritual objects are generally guarded by demon beasts. This Spirit Mist Grass is just a low-level spiritual object, but for intermediate or higher, there are first order demon beasts guarding them, and high-level spiritual objects are even guarded by second order demon beasts. We can't afford to be careless," Pang Qing warned.
As the guard team delved deeper, more and more spiritual objects were discovered.
Su Han himself had also obtained three spiritual objects. According to the family rules, these discoveries were his to keep, while those found by the guard team, apart from those allocated to Su Han, Su Mingxuan, and Su Minghui, the rest had to be turned over to the family.
"After all this time, I've only got three sprigs of Spirit Mist Grass, not even enough to pick my teeth," Su Han sighed inwardly.
"The crystal cores of demon beasts are indeed full of spiritual energy; it's a pity that up until now, we haven't encountered a single demon beast."
In the blink of an eye, the guard team had penetrated more than ten miles into the Demon Beast Mountain Range.
"Everyone be on alert. We're about to enter the area with intermediate spiritual objects – that's where we'll start seeing demon beasts," Pang Qing suddenly announced.
"Roar!"
No sooner had his words faded away than a fierce roar burst forth.
"Boom!"
Accompanying the roar, the bushes ahead began to tremble violently as a dark figure charged straight towards them.
"Tusked Wild Boar!"
Pang Qing's eyes flashed as he said with a laugh, "Brothers, it's a first order demon beast, the Tusked Wild Boar. Dinner is secured for us tonight!"
"Haha, one Tusked Wild Boar won't be enough for all of us to eat!"
Hu Feng also laughed, his feet lightly tapping the ground as he dashed forward.
A long spear appeared in his hands, and as he closed within five meters of the Tusked Wild Boar, he hurled the long spear with a sudden thrust!
