Many children, many blessings: Stealing the offspring of powerful figures to cultivate immortality.

The cold wind on Starlink was like a knife, scraping against the gravel and making a sharp hissing sound.

Jiang Yining was surprised that someone would not use the teleportation array to save money, and instead walk after running out of spiritual energy.

I rubbed my sore calves and desperately chased after that fiery red figure ahead.

Mo Xie carried the enormous Divine Mechanism Box on her back, walking steadily and quickly.

"Young master, take a rest? My leg is really going to break."

Jiang Yining wiped her sweat while pitifully tugging at Mo Xie's cloak.

Mo Xie stopped and turned around, his golden pupils reflecting Jiang Yining's pale face.

He didn't speak, but gently patted the Divine Machine Box with his right hand.

A metal support automatically popped out and precisely supported Jiang Yining under her armpit, distributing most of her weight.

"A burden."

"If you can't keep up, you'll fall down to be fed to the Star Beasts. The digestive juices there can turn your bones to dust."

Mo Xie turned around and continued walking, her tone stiff, but her pace noticeably slowed down.

Jiang Yining took a deep breath, but her mind was racing with calculations.

"Young Master, I overheard you mentioning the Pill Tower earlier. Are the pills you want to buy very expensive?"

Jiang Yining asked, seemingly casually.

She needs to understand this powerful figure and also find out more about the common knowledge of the Canglan Realm.

Mo Xie stopped, a shadow of gloom flashing in his golden pupils, followed by a self-deprecating laugh: "Nonsense. That's the Pill Tower, the gathering place for all high-level alchemists in the Canglan Realm."

"To obtain a 'Heavenly-grade Life-Extending Pill,' not only do you need an astronomical price in Star Essence Stones, but you also have to consider the mood of those old guys."

He turned around, stared at Jiang Yining, and said in a harsh tone, "My sister's illness requires one pill every three months. If it weren't for this medicine, would I be reduced to such frugality?"

The fact that the young master of Tiangong City had to resort to scavenging for scraps shows that the price offered by the Pill Tower had reached a point that even a family of weapon-refining families couldn't afford.

"So it can never be cured?" Jiang Yining was about to say a few more words.

Mo Xie interrupted her somewhat irritably: "That's a hidden injury she suffered when she was accidentally injured by a semi-saint realm expert at birth. Apart from the Heavenly-grade Life-Extending Pill from the Pill Tower, no one can suppress it."

Moye turned her head and continued forward.

His shoulders were narrow, yet he carried a huge mechanical box on his back, making him look somewhat comical, yet also stubborn.

Just as the two were about to cross the group of floating islands, a dark shadow flickered in front of them.

Seven or eight burly men riding large vultures rushed out from the shadows of the floating island, their spears gleaming with a malevolent red light.

"Kid, I've got my eye on your weapon!"

The burly man leading the group, his face contorted with menace, said, "Hand over everything, and we'll spare your life?"

His gaze lingered on Jiang Yining, revealing greed: "And this female cultivator, look at her delicate skin, tsk tsk, I haven't had any meat in a long time."

Mo Xie patted the Divine Machine Box on her back without any expression.

"Three seconds," he said.

"What three seconds?" The robber was taken aback.

"If you don't roll within three seconds, you're dead." Mo Xie's voice was cold and devoid of any warmth.

"Hahaha! Kid, who do you think you are?"

The robbers laughed and brandished their long knives: "Brothers, let's go! If we grab that box, we can live a life of pleasure for six months!"

Jiang Yining sighed. These people really died in a very rhythmic way.

Mo Xie didn't even raise his hand, but the Divine Machine Box on his back suddenly vibrated violently, the clicking mechanical sounds like the accompaniment of death.

A dozen or so silver metal spiders, each only the size of a palm, suddenly sprang out from the bottom of the box.

These spiders took root wherever they landed, moving at an astonishing speed, leaving countless afterimages in the sand.

"Ah!! What is this thing?!"

Screams erupted instantly.

Once the metal spider leaps onto the robber, its sharp legs immediately pierce the leather armor and crawl upwards along the spine.

Wherever it was stabbed, a tiny blue aura would burst forth.

Those burly men who were so arrogant just moments before were now rolling around on the ground like they were having a seizure.

"You're not qualified to call me 'master' in front of me."

Mo Xie coldly counted down, "Three, two, one."

boom!

Tiny explosions rang out at each of the robbers' joints, precisely destroying all their joint connections.

A moment later, seven or eight burly men lay sprawled on the beach like dead fish, unable to even move a finger.

Mo Xie walked up to the leader of the robbers, and a mechanical claw emerged from the Divine Machine Box, skillfully beginning to search him.

"Storage ring, confiscated."

"The heart-protecting mirror, even though it's trash, can be melted down and used as waste."

"These pants... the protective material is alright, take them off."

Jiang Yining was dumbfounded.

This red-haired brat looks aloof, but he's even more skilled at robbery than she is?

Even their vulture mount was neatly put into a pet bag by Moxie.

With all the necessary equipment for a robbery, Jiang Yining had reason to suspect that he brought her along to act as "bait."

"What are you looking at? Help me out."

Mo Xie wiped his hands and glanced sideways at Jiang Yining: "Search the others, don't miss anything that can be sold."

Jiang Yining smiled and went to work: "Young Master is awesome. Next time, just tell me what to do, don't get your hands dirty."

Mo Xie scoffed lightly, his gaze falling on Jiang Yining's seemingly delicate yet remarkably steady hands.

"You seem to be adapting quite well."

"I've seen this kind of thing a lot while I'm surviving in the lower realms."

In no time, the robbers who had been so aggressive just moments before were now lying neatly on the ground, with only their brightly colored underwear on.

"Young Master, could you give me a pill to heal my injuries?" Jiang Yining asked, pressing her advantage.

Mo Xie frowned, rummaged through the pile of spoils for a long time, and finally found a grayish pill and threw it over.

"A low-grade recovery pill. It'll only keep you from collapsing on the roadside. Don't think about taking more; I still need to save money to save my sister's life."

Jiang Yining took the pill and casually popped it into her mouth. The effect wasn't very noticeable.

But she felt a sense of relief.

Having just arrived in the Canglan Realm, it was already incredibly lucky to encounter the easily fooled Mo Xie.

"Thank you, young master. Young master, where is our next stop?"

"First, find a market to dispose of this garbage, then see if there's any 'new stock' on the road."

Mo Xie picked up the box again, her figure appearing somewhat frail in the light and shadow, yet exuding a ruthlessness beyond her years.

"We don't even have enough money to buy the medicine."
