Chapter 110: Delivery

The little cat demon accompanied Mo Hua in practicing his movement technique. Mo Hua could say he had saved its life, and neither owed the other anything.

Mo Hua’s movement technique was now at minor success. He was just preparing to find Bai Zi Sheng for another sparring session when he coincidentally saw several demon hunter masters wearing vine armor on the street, and his heart skipped a beat.

Vine armor?

Mo Hua’s heart went cold.

Finished, I forgot!

The Iron Armor Array he promised to paint for Elder Yu hadn't been finished yet…

Before, he used to spend time every day painting several copies, estimating he could finish within a month. But ever since Zhang Lan taught him the Passing Water Step, his entire focus had been on this movement technique.

First, it was dodging wild fruits falling from trees by himself. Later, he sparred with Bai Zi Sheng and then found a little cat demon to practice with.

Now, over a month had passed. His Passing Water Step had become proficient, but he had only painted over thirty copies of the Iron Armor Array…

Mo Hua hurried back home, took out the vine armor, ground the spiritual ink, and began painting urgently.

In the following days, Mo Hua shut himself in his room, concentrating on painting the Iron Armor Array.

Sunlight shone into the room through the window as Mo Hua leaned over his small desk, painting the Iron Armor Array on the vine armor stroke by stroke.

Mo Hua painted earnestly, but his brush was still fast. With the pause and rise and fall of his wrist, one array pattern after another leaped onto the vine armor, then responded and combined with each other, forming a profound array.

When his spiritual sense was exhausted, Mo Hua would use meditation techniques to restore it.

After his spiritual sense was full, he would continue painting.

Five days later, he finally finished painting all one hundred copies of the Iron Armor Array.

Mo Hua handed all the finished vine armor with the Iron Armor Array painted on them to his father, Mo Shan, asking him to deliver them to Elder Yu.

Mo Hua had no personal relationship with Elder Yu and didn’t know how to find the elder. Moreover, as the only Foundation Establishment cultivator in the demon hunter guild, Elder Yu was always busy, and it wasn't easy to see him.

He had originally estimated to finish the arrays within a month, but now he had spent more than half a month longer. He hoped Elder Yu wouldn't blame him…

Mo Hua silently thought to himself.

Mo Shan went to visit Elder Yu and found Elder Yu discussing matters with someone in his study, so it was inconvenient to disturb him. He then gave the storage bag to Elder Yu's eldest son, asking him to deliver it on his behalf.

Elder Yu's eldest son, named Yu Cheng Yi, was at the ninth level of Qi Refining. He was an outstanding figure among the demon hunter masters of Tong Xian City, and his cultivation was second only to his Foundation Establishment father. He was also quite influential among the demon hunter masters.

But the only person Yu Cheng Yi feared was his father.

Yu Cheng Yi received the storage bag. When he went to find Elder Yu, Elder Yu was still discussing matters with several elderly demon hunter masters, and from the look of it, he was in a very bad mood:

"Why hasn't that old scoundrel of the Qian family been struck dead by lightning? Every day he's gloomy, thinking of ways to scheme against me. If I'm about to die one day, I must perish with him. Even if I die, I want him to be buried with me!"

"Qian Hong, this family master, is just a coward. He doesn't do good things, but his belly is full of bad schemes, exactly like his old man…"

"He's a beast who eats people without spitting out the bones. Every day he thinks of ways to suppress us, deducting spirit stones here, reducing spirit tools there. Go to his grandma's…"

"If this continues, everyone's life won't be easy. I wonder how much better his Qian family will be…"

Elder Yu ranted against the Qian family for a while.

Demon hunter masters relied on hunting demons to make a living. The materials obtained from hunting demons were all sold to the Qian family, who then rose to power and instead suppressed the demon hunter masters, seizing more spirit stone profits.

Elder Yu supported the demon hunter guild, and naturally had many conflicts with the Qian family.

Elder Yu’s temper was originally not good. After experiencing so many years of hardships, his heart was firm and even stubborn. He was often targeted by the Qian family openly and secretly, and some of their methods were very despicable. Elder Yu couldn’t get over his anger, so he often openly cursed the Qian family.

This study room was said to be used for discussing matters, but for more than half of the three hundred and sixty-odd days in a year, it was used to curse the Qian family.

Yu Cheng Yi was not surprised by this.

However, the Qian family was indeed not good.

He didn't have his father's cultivation, nor his father's toughness, otherwise, he would also join in the cursing.

Elder Yu cursed for a long time before finally stopping. He chatted with several old demon hunter masters about some matters, and then everyone dispersed.

After the meeting dispersed, Elder Yu’s remaining anger hadn't dissipated. He poured himself a cup of tea and slowly drank it.

Yu Cheng Yi quietly walked in, "Dad."

Elder Yu raised an eyebrow, "What is it?"

"Brother Mo Shan just came over. He asked me to give you this storage bag."

Yu Cheng Yi said, handing over the storage bag.

"Mo Shan?"

Elder Yu frowned and thought for a while, then his eyebrows relaxed and he said: "Let me see."

Elder Yu's expression showed a slight expectation. He opened the storage bag and found that it was indeed a complete set of vine armor, and array patterns were painted on the vine armor.

Elder Yu couldn't help but be overjoyed.

Yu Cheng Yi looked surprised. Although his father's emotions were displayed on his face, most of them were anger, or just a serious expression. He had truly not seen this kind of joyful expression many times.

"Dad, what's in this storage bag?"

Yu Cheng Yi couldn't help but ask.

"Vine armor." Elder Yu said casually.

"Vine armor?"

"Yes, vine armor with the Iron Armor Array painted on it."

"Is it for A Da and A Er?" Yu Cheng Yi asked.

A Da and A Er were both his sons. As the saying goes, generations are close. Elder Yu was strict with him but doted on these two grandsons.

"It is, but not only." Elder Yu sighed, "You bunch of demon hunter masters are all cunning old-timers and thick-skinned. Getting bitten by demon beasts a few times is no big deal…"

Getting bitten by demon beasts a few times is still a big deal…

Yu Cheng Yi silently thought to himself. As long as they were cultivators, none of them could withstand being bitten by demon beasts. But he didn't dare to retort, only listened silently.

"…But those newly promoted demon hunter masters are different. Although they have all learned Dao techniques, they are still children after all. If something happens to them, my heart will ache. The future of the demon hunter guild still needs to rely on them…" Elder Yu said.

Yu Cheng Yi nodded and couldn't help but ask: "Then Dad, which array master did you ask to paint these arrays?"

"He's still young, I don't know if he can be considered an array master."

Elder Yu thought of Mo Hua's well-behaved and cute appearance, and his mood became more joyful, "It's Mo Shan's son, named Mo Hua."

"Mo Hua…" Yu Cheng Yi nodded. He had also learned from familiar demon hunter masters that Mo Shan had a son who was quite talented in arrays.

However, he still had one question:

"How many spirit stones did you give him per copy?"

Elder Yu had experienced vicissitudes, but at this moment, he couldn't help but blush slightly, "Cough… only three pieces…"

Yu Cheng Yi said weakly: "Dad, doing this is not too appropriate…"

Elder Yu immediately pulled a long face, "How is it not appropriate? Low-level scattered cultivators should support each other. I think Mo Hua is a good child, his awareness is higher than yours."

Yu Cheng Yi remained silent.

Elder Yu thought for a while, sighed, "You're also right. No matter what, I can indeed be said to have taken advantage. Later, if his family has any matters, I'll help them out."

Yu Cheng Yi was secretly surprised. To be able to make his thick-skinned father owe a favor, he hadn't seen many since he was young.

"The Iron Armor Array is not simple, can Mo Hua paint it?" Yu Cheng Yi thought for a moment and asked again.

"Why can't he paint it? Isn't this it?"

Elder Yu patted the vine armor in his hand. The set of pale gold array patterns on the vine armor was rigorous and elegant, the array patterns were complex and graceful, with a faint profound aura flowing within.

Yu Cheng Yi also couldn't help but brighten his eyes, "Dad, you have to admit, this array is really well painted!"

"That's natural! I found it myself!" Elder Yu said proudly.

"How many copies did you ask him to paint?"

"One hundred copies."

"One hundred copies?" Yu Cheng Yi was shocked, "So many! Are they all finished?"

"How is that possible? He's a child, how can he paint so fast?"

Elder Yu didn't think of asking Mo Hua to finish painting all at once. If he could paint seventy or eighty percent, that would be good enough. After all, Mo Hua was still young, his cultivation was low, and his spiritual sense was probably not enough to paint so many arrays.

Having seventy or eighty copies would be temporarily enough to use.

"There are only…"

Elder Yu's expression was leisurely. He swept his spiritual sense and roughly counted: "Thirty… fifty… eighty…"

There's more?

Elder Yu’s expression just stiffened. He couldn't help but count again, "Forty… seventy… ninety… one hundred!"

One hundred?!

Elder Yu silently took a deep breath and said with disbelief: "Finished?!"
