Coincidentally, just as Qin Yi was about to close his eyes to enter the system storage, Li Hai suddenly appeared not far in front of him.

"Senior Brother..."

He immediately stood up and greeted Li Hai.

"Mmn, sorry for disturbing you."

"Nothing, senior brother."

Qin Yi smiled awkwardly. In fact, he was doing nothing and he was about to enter the system storage.

When Li Hai came to the Willow Tree, it suddenly shook its branches madly; it appeared wary and scared of his sudden appearance.

"Don't worry, I won't hurt you."

After Li Hai said that softly, Willow Tree finally calmed down for a little, but still remained vigilant.

He looked at Qin Yi and said.

"I'm here to tell you what kind of punishment you will receive for your violation in sneaking out of the sect of the sect's permission."

"As expected... Do I still have to be punished by you, senior brother?"

Qin Yi looked at his senior brother with puppy eyes.

"Should I report it to the sect that you have violated the sect's rule?"

"Oh, don't, please!"

What kind of ghost would the sect do if they find out about this. Perhaps he will receive a severe punishment.

Getting a punishment from Li Hai would probably be better than getting punishment from the sect.

Even offenders like Mo Xuan and Huang Haoming were only sentenced to a few days in prison and paid a certain amount of fines.

"Senior brother, I was just went to shopping without permission... Could you lighten my punishment?"

Qin Yi said to Li Hai in fidgeted.

"Don't worry, junior brother! Your punishment is not severe, in fact it should be very easy for you."

Li Hai laughed kindly as he calmed his junior brother's worries.

"Oh, that relief." Qin Yi immediately felt delighted as he heard that.

"Please, say, senior brother! I will gladly accepted it."

Li Hai patted his junior brother's shoulder with a smile as he reveal the sentence.

"Your punishment is very simple, you only need to stay here to accompany my subordinate, Wu Kun for a month. Also, within that month you should make full effort to find information regarding the Rituals performed by the village in this nameless mountain."

"However, you don't need to burden yourself with this task. Regardless of whether you managed to get that information or not, you can regain your freedom after a month has passed."

After hearing his sentence, Qin Yi stared blankly at Li Hai.

A simple punishment?

Simple your sister!

You just literally want to turn me into a spy!

As expected he shouldn't have bargained with his senior brother.

This is what happens when he bargains with Devil.

But suddenly, he remembered something as a sly idea generated in his mind.

"Senior brother, it's not that I don't want to accept this punishment. It's just that I still have an important task to attend Elder Hua's garden from evening to morning..."

Qin Yi carefully looked at Li Hai.

"Elder Hua? Do you mean you attend the Hundred Flowers Garden?"

Li Hai looked at Qin Yi in surprise.

Elder Hua was a well-known figure in the Inner Sect, and everyone knew that she is obsessed with flowers.

She likes to collect various kinds of beautiful and charming flowers, and Hundred Flowers Garden is a testament to her collection.

She would always personally attend her lovely garden, and even her disciple is not allowed to do it.

That was why Li Hai was surprised to learn that this junior brother of his was in charge of attending Elder Hua's Hundred Flowers Garden.

"Have you met Elder Hua?" Li Hai asked curiously.

Qin Yi shook his head as he answered truthfully.

"No, I only met Elder Hua's disciple named Lan Qianhua."

"Oh, that girl... Then, why are you the one looking after the garden instead of her?"

"It's like this..."

Qin Yi began to narrate how he took on this mission and recounted what Lan Qianhua had said a month ago before handing over the task to Qin Yi and the rest.

Five minutes later, Li Hai more or less understood his junior brother's situation.

No wonder Elder Hua was willing to let others into her beloved garden.

It seemed the rumors were true.

He heard from his master that Elder Hua was preparing herself to break through to the Golden Core Realm.

It is a hazardous process and requires meticulous preparation. Therefore, Elder Hua could not possibly spare her thought to take care of her beloved garden.

The only person who could replace her was her disciple, Lan Qianhua.

Meanwhile, Lan Qianhua was also forced to be busy with training.

After all, the Inner Sect Tournament is about to start this year.

As a disciple of the renowned Elder Hua, she couldn't relax and embarrass her master's name in that tournament.

Maybe that's why she decided to set up a mission to attend the Hundred Flowers Garden in the Mission Hall.

As he finished thinking about this possibility, then he said casually.

"In short, you only need to attend the Hundred Flowers Garden from evening till morning, right? Then, it would be best if you found a way to come to this nameless mountain from morning to evening."

Qin Yi twitched his face violently.

Does this senior brother realize how far the distance of the sect is from this nameless mountain?

If it weren't for Li Hai's sword, he could only have arrived at this village in half a day on foot.

That was fuck*n half a day!

Doesn't that mean he came just to go back again?

That's so absurd!

Li Hai, of course, was aware of his junior brother's concern as he enlightened him.

"You don't have to walk here. There is a service that specializes in shuttle services in Ancient Dragon City. As long as you have the money, they are willing to take you anywhere and pick you up if you make an appointment beforehand."

"Shuttle service?"

Qin Yi was shocked as he felt that he just heard something incredible.

He's not ignorant about service work like this; after all, he came from Earth, the shuttle service is generally almost everywhere.

There are many great companies on Earth that run this kind of business. Qin Yi did not expect that people in this world would come up with this kind of idea.

"Yes, basically, you just have to pay them a certain amount of money depending on the distance you want to travel. The farther the distance, the more expensive it will be."

"I estimate the cost from Ancient Dragon City to this nameless mountain to be around 100 low-grade spirit stones to go back and forth. For someone who casually shopped at the market and was even able to pull out a Rank 2 Purple Smoke Talisman, that much should be okay for you, isn't that so, junior brother?"

Li Hai smiled as he explained things to his junior brother.

Qin Yi was speechless as he didn't know what else to say to this person.

What Li Hai suggested was utterly ripping him off.

The 100 low-grade spirit stones were indeed a small amount, but they were only valid for one day. What if it's for thirty days?

Doesn't he have to spend 3000 low-grade spirit stones in a month?

If it were someone else, they would definitely rather chose to be imprisoned instead of spending that much money. After all, those 3000 low-grade spirit stones were enough to buy them various necessities for their cultivation.

Qin Yi couldn't help but sigh in resignation. In this case, he lost not only his freedom but also his money.

However, he also had to admit that 3000 low-grade spirit stones were nothing to him.

He didn't precisely know how many spirit stones he had in the storage system. However, he estimated that there should be more than 500,000 low-grade spirit stones.

Aside from spirit stones, he also had many other treasures that were worth a lot of money.

He was so rich that he was secretly the wealthiest person in the outer sect.

In the end, he could only helplessly accept Li Hai's punishment.

Li Hai was satisfied with Qin Yi's response as he immediately took out a book from his ring and said.

"Since you agreed to take on this task, I won't employ you for nothing. Here, a cultivation technique that might be of use to you."

He handed the book into the hands of his junior brother.

As Qin Yi accepted it, his eyes widened as he read the words written on the cover.

It was written very clearly with words— Turtle Breathing Technique.
