Chapter 67: The Largest Hunter Trading Center

The spirit didn’t want to let her soul just fade away without leaving anything, so she gathered all her magical energy and released her soul into the wind. It was as if a miracle... her soul did not just fade in the air; instead, it transformed into a butterfly.

Its wings were the color of emerald, looking crystal-clear as it fluttered gently in the wind at the same time. That was the world’s first Wind Spirit Butterfly.

It had inherited the soul of that first spirit, also holding the desire to soar freely through the sky. Shen Qingyi had once heard legends that say that when thousands of these Wind Spirit Butterflies gather together, they could even control the winds of the world, creating an invisible path to some unknown place.

The spirits call that path... The Path of the Wind.

"I can’t believe that Tianyu could summon a Wind Spirit Butterfly... Shouldn’t they only exist in the legends?" Shen Qingyi stared at the large creature in front of her, her eyes lighting up in astonishment. "It’s so beautiful..."

"I never thought that I could successfully form a contract with it either. I summoned it from the summoning space a few days ago, but didn’t really have time to tell you all," Chen Tianyu explained.

Then he leaped onto the back of the butterfly and looked toward them with a bright smile on his face. "Come on, everyone! Get on! I’ll bring you all to the auction," he said cheerfully.

After he said so, the Wind Spirit Butterfly also lowered its wings, making it easier for them to climb up. Mo Shiyan was the first one to walk, and he held onto Jiang Zihan’s wrist (who was still surprised) and brought him over.

When Jiang Zihan and Mo Shiyan jumped onto the butterfly’s back, Jiang Zihan turned his head and called Shen Qingyi’s name, allowing her to come back to her senses and quickly take his hand to get onto it.

Seeing that everyone was ready, Chen Tianyu patted gently on the Wind Spirit Butterfly’s back and said, "Xiao Ling, let’s get going."

"Tiiiing~~~"

The butterfly, Xiao Ling, responded before flying. On the way, Jiang Zihan felt a bit hesitant as he looked toward Chen Tianyu. Maybe it was because his gaze was too intense; Chen Tianyu finally turned his head and asked curiously, "What is it, Zihan? Have something that you want to ask me about?"

Jiang Zihan gently nodded his head before speaking. "You’re flying around the city like this... Is that really allowed?"

Chen Tianyu was stunned for a moment before he scratched his head. "So that’s what you’re thinking about... Do I really look like someone who’s not reliable at all?"

"I already got my Hunter’s license in the Hunter Association, and because my Hunter ability is related to summoning, I am allowed to travel with summoning creatures around the city, although they are not allowed to release any powerful abilities," he explained.

Hearing this, Jiang Zihan and Shen Qingyi exchanged a glance, both letting out a long breath. They did not want to get into any trouble for such reasons.

Not long later, they reached their destination—the Hunter Trading Center. It is located in the center of the city’s busiest district, appearing as a massive white building that stood out among its surroundings. Right next to the Hunter Trading Center stood another building that was around the same size, which is where the Hunter Association is located.

For professional Hunters, almost anything that is related to becoming a Hunter could be accomplished in the Hunter Association, which includes awakening their Hunter abilities, registering as a Hunter, accepting missions, purchasing equipment, etc.

On the other hand, the Hunter Trading Center was the largest trading center for Hunters in Lanhai City. From standard weapons to high-ranking equipment, anything that had been certified by the Hunter Association could be traded over here.

As long as you have enough Hunter points (which can be gained by completing missions) or money, there’s nothing that you could not trade. Most of the time, Hunter points would have much greater purchasing power than Star Dusts.

The sudden appearance of a Wind Spirit Butterfly immediately attracted everyone’s attention; there were some people who even took out their phone and began taking pictures.

They ignored those curious gazes around them and jumped off the Wind Spirit Butterfly one by one. "Thank you for bringing us here," Chen Tianyu said as he rubbed Xiao Ling’s head before he sent it back into his summoning space.

"There are so many people..." Jiang Zihan murmured.

"I have heard my brother tell me that there was a pretty high barrier to entering this auction house. You either have to spend a large amount of money to purchase a membership, be a high-ranked professional Hunter yourself, or have a high-ranked Hunter personally recommend you," Shen Qingyi explained.

"Even I was only able to attend once because my brother brought me in, and that’s because my grandfather is a well-known A-Rank Hunter," she continued.

Hearing this, Jiang Zihan lowered his eyes and stared at the invitation in his hand thoughtfully. From what Qingyi said, it seems like Mengyao isn’t as simple as she looks.

"The auction should be starting soon. Let’s not stand by the door!" Chen Tianyu said. His voice quickly brought Jiang Zihan out of his thoughts, which caused him to instinctively hold tighter onto the invitation before stepping inside the building.

"Zihan, is there anything that you want to buy?" Mo Shiyan asked.

Jiang Zihan shook his head and replied, "I guess I’m just here to see what it looks like."

Although he looked calm on the outside, in Mo Shiyan’s mind, the little "Jiang Zihan" had already taken out his wallet from his pocket and shook it upside down. After shaking it for a while, there was only one Star Dust that fell to the floor.

The little "Jiang Zihan" in his mind seemed to have lost its color immediately.
