A task that spiraled out of control with playing slaves.

After entering, the battle was settled in just a few minutes.

The autumn wind brings some uncontrollable factors, and many Lords need mercenaries.

Powerful mercenaries are hotly sought after by Lords.

Yi Tian has now fought his way back onto the B-level Mercenary Golden List, ranking over six thousand.

Although his rank isn’t high, no Lord doubts the strength of Second Under Heaven.

In the B-level Mercenary zone, the sense of security Second Under Heaven gives Lords far surpasses even the one ranked first on the B-level Mercenary Golden List.

Second Under Heaven has already proven in the arena that he is the symbol of invincibility in the B-level domain.

With a single autumn breeze, countless Lords’ houses collapsed.

Forget wooden cabins—even the original stone houses, stone walls, couldn’t withstand the autumn wind.

After verification, only city walls built with Level 3 Building Platforms can survive the autumn wind.

Two-story buildings, small courtyards, three-story wooden houses—these constructions once made Lords feel cozy, but now they can’t escape disaster.

The Ordinary Region was afflicted the worst.

Often, in a single region, 60% of buildings are destroyed by the autumn wind.

Countless Lords are left homeless, shivering in the autumn wind, on the verge of a breakdown.

The autumn wind blows not just buildings, but also living creatures—the wind reaches wherever the members of the territory go.

The lucky ones hide in sturdier workshops or warehouses, with at least a shelter.

Thankfully, at five in the afternoon, the autumn wind ceased. Lords of the Ordinary Region felt as if they had seen the dawn before the daylight.

From the "news" section of the Special Auction House, Lords learned that the autumn wind rises every day at nine and falls at five in the afternoon.

Except for houses and walls built on Level 3 Building Platforms, the autumn wind destroys everything.

Since maxing their three-dimensional stat, Ordinary Region Lords all have some savings.

They spent 500,000 Celestial Dao Coins to upgrade to Level 3 Building Platforms.

Bought design blueprints for small villas and reinforced concrete houses, to rebuild their homes.

Along with all kinds of building design blueprints shooting up in price at the auction house, mid-grade stone sees a significant price rise.

From three Dao Coins per piece, it rose to five Dao Coins.

Buildings and city walls from Level 3 Building Platforms all require mid-grade stone.

When the day ended and night approached, Yi Tian had completed 152 tasks in total.

Earned 30.4 million Celestial Dao Coins.

Plus the one time Fatty did that top-tier S-level task, making 153 tasks completed today.

In total, 924 tasks done, with a success rate of 100%.

Celestial Dao Coin balance: 6,997,500,000.

Yi Tian thought, "This isn’t bad. I can earn quite a bit and increase my mercenary count."

With A-level getting closer and closer, chances like this won’t come often.

After returning to the villa, Yi Tian collapsed tiredly onto the sofa, not even bothering to remove his armor.

In one day, used two Ten-color Chrysanthemums.

"Lord! All the Enlightenment Tea is ready!"

Liyue took the Enlightenment Tea jar and set it before Yi Tian.

In the past few days, all the Enlightenment Tea was processed, using a total of twenty-two S-level Beast Cores, seven Fire Element Cores.

Whenever Yi Tian wasn’t around, Liyue would take care of things for him.

Now, the Enlightenment Tea is entering a new cycle of reincarnation—it will take thirty thousand months before they sprout, bud, and form tea leaves.

If possible, Yi Tian will definitely make Enlightenment Tea’s growth his priority.

"Liyue, has anything happened in the territory today?" Yi Tian asked Liyue.

"Some newly planted saplings were destroyed, nothing else! The whole territory is covered in yellow sand right now, and the captives are already sweeping it up!" Liyue answered Yi Tian, then came over and gently helped him remove his armor.

"Alright, I know now."

Who knows where Autumn Beasts got all this sand; if it were just wind, Lords wouldn’t be scared.

Strong winds plus fine sand target the most vulnerable part: the eyes.

Today, Yi Tian was able to rampage in the Shimmering Gold territory and defeat District 789456321 largely thanks to the sand from the Autumn Beasts.

"Where are the Kiddos!"

With his combat armor off, Yi Tian felt way more comfortable.

"They went to eat at the restaurant. They don’t eat our cooking anymore." Liyue sounded a little sad—her cooking skills are limited and pretty basic.

Maybe the Lord doesn’t like my sister’s and my food either.

"I think it’s fine! Tonight, you two cook, and I’ll join you. I’ll buy a cookbook soon. With your natural talent and grace, you’ll learn to cook the world’s best food in no time." Yi Tian comforted Liyue with the first part, and truly meant the latter half.

Liyue and Qixin are both smart; even though they don’t understand Huaxia Language, the fact that they can follow what the Little Kiddos say says it all.

As long as they learn systematically, they’ll be kitchen gods for sure.

Books like that are plenty at the auction house, and dirt cheap.

"Lord, I’ll go cook right away!"

Liyue was happy. Ever since they had Hundred Flowers Spirit Honey, the Lord rarely ate dinner.

She barely cared about the second half.

"Go on!"

Yi Tian smiled gently.

After a short rest, he went over to the Ice Celestial Silkworms and it was obvious they’d grown bigger.

Better to build some rapport now so they don’t ignore me once they’re grown. 𝘧𝑟𝑒𝑒𝘸𝘦𝘣𝑛𝑜𝘷𝑒𝓁.𝘤𝘰𝓂

These Ice Celestial Silkworms stopped munching on mulberry leaves as soon as they saw Yi Tian.

They remembered Yi Tian was always poking them with a stick.

This time, though, he didn’t have that kind of intention, just wanted to take a look!

Once the Ice Celestial Silkworms sensed Yi Tian wasn’t "dangerous," they continued eating Cyan Jade Mulberry Leaves.

Had dinner with Liyue and Qixin, then Yi Tian started working on his strength.

Gold Source Stone—spirit stones born in the Land of the Golden Source.

Contains Mystical Power; depending on your physique, absorbing it lets you master at least a Level 3 Power of Mystery.

Blade Stone—left behind by the Sword God when he mastered the sword.

Bringing Blade Stone helps you comprehend Sword Mastery; Sword Mastery contains Sword Blade Power, increasing each level’s might by 15%.

This Blade Stone was like adding wings to a tiger for Yi Tian. Just in time, Yi Tian wanted to master Sword Mastery.
