Shiwan Mountains, Moon Wolf Valley

Thinking of this, Yang Jian suddenly realized!

It seems I'm also a City Lord!

That statement isn't entirely accurate.

At least, I will definitely be a City Lord in the future... This business... I want to do it too!

Of course, such thoughts could only be entertained at noon.

Because if he really started collecting city gate taxes, he'd be cursed to death sooner or later.

After meeting up with this group of white-furred beings, Mo Xuan handed over an item.

Without the game system's assistance, it was hard to tell what this thing was for!

But it didn't matter; Tian Mu was still strong.

Name: Gale Wolf's Reins (Purple)

Description: A wolf companion raised by the Howling Moon Sky Wolf, it's both a mount and a comrade!

Note: You can ride it, but you can't take it away; it already has an owner...

Seeing Yang Jian staring at the reins, Mo Xuan was afraid he wouldn't know what it was.

Mo Xuan opened his mouth to explain.

"This is our companion, the Gale Wolf!"

With that, Mo Xuan also taught Yang Jian how to summon a mount... Yang Jian watched Mo Xuan lead a Gale Wolf from one of his subordinates, a little curious why he was given reins!

Was it a bribe?

The process of summoning the Gale Wolf wasn't very smooth.

Because the game's auxiliary system had been completely shut down.

Yang Jian used to think that by closing the assisted attack mode early, he had already broken free from the system's shackles when casting spells.

He never expected... System Dad was still loving him in places Yang Jian couldn't see!

Until now... on the mountain path outside Shifang City, a group of more than ten people rode Gale Wolves at lightning speed!

When he first started riding the Gale Wolf, Yang Jian wasn't quite used to it.

But after all, his attributes were powerful, and his strength was formidable!

Although the New World no longer looked at attributes, his strength was still there... For example, while there was no concept of HP, a person would die if they were headshotted.

However, when life energy reached a certain level of abundance, rebirth from a drop of blood was no longer a myth.

Another example: although there was no concept of attack power, battle energy was extremely abundant.

Punching a star into smithereens was no longer an unacceptable feat.

Therefore, Yang Jian's efforts (cheating) did not disappear into thin air, but rather accompanied him in a different way!

After all, he had once fully experienced a gamified world.

Although the gamification had faded.

The impact of datafication continued to this day.

The entire Tian Yao Realm was also a highly datafied world.

Although it wasn't like the Eastern Continent, where they would add panels to even flowers and plants.

At least individual strength still had a display panel!

Just this point made Yang Jian feel that he hadn't strayed too far!

The only thing that made Yang Jian a little conflicted was that after leaving his original world, his skills seemed to have a slight problem!

Without the system's assistance, not only was summoning the Wind Wolf not smooth, Yang Jian seemed unable to even summon Mo Song!

He hadn't reached the territory of the Howling Moon Sky Wolf Clan yet, and Yang Jian didn't dare to rashly attempt to summon Mo Song.

Shifang City was located on the edge of the Ten Thousand Mountains.

The Ten Thousand Mountains was the demon race's main base in the Tian Yao Realm!

To be precise, it was the main base of the Mountain Demon Race.

As for the demon race, that scope was too vast.

Winged, feathered, hairy, scaled, insectoid... Strictly speaking, any animal that embarked on the path of cultivation could be considered a demon race.

"The Tian Yao Realm is not peaceful..."

Walking on the road, since he was idle, Mo Xuan began to explain the current situation to Yang Jian!

"Or rather, any world that has been invaded by the Abyss will forever be far from true peace!"

At this point, Mo Xuan sighed.

If it were truly peaceful, his son would not have been forced to travel to other worlds.

Through Mo Xuan's introduction, Yang Jian gained a new understanding of the Ten Thousand Mountains.

There were three major demon clans residing here!

The Winged Tiger Clan!

The Howling Moon Wolf Clan!

The Iron-Eating Bear Clan!

Among them, the strongest was the Iron-Eating Bear Clan, even though their numbers were the fewest!

However, their Grandfather Giant Bamboo's realm, according to the Tian Yao Realm's classification, belonged to the eleventh-tier Great Demon.

According to the game system's classification, he was a super expert at the peak of a demigod!

He had already touched the threshold of ascending to the God Realm.

In a world where great power belonged to oneself, having more people served no purpose other than to be cannon fodder!

The third-ranked was the Winged Tiger Clan!

Their strongest expert was on par with Mo Xuan's father, the Old Wolf King Mo Ren.

Both were at the peak of Hero level!

When the strongest experts' strengths were similar, it was time to compare numbers... Although the Winged Tiger Clan was powerful, their numbers were too scarce.

Even if each of them occupied a mountain, they would only occupy dozens of ordinary mountains!

So sometimes, whether numbers are important also depends on the situation... Understanding the distribution of surrounding forces also helped Yang Jian's activities in the area.

After all... "How long did you say it would take to advance? Five days?"

Yang Jian pulled on the reins, a little reluctant to go... Actually, whether or not he made up for the missing professions and attributes didn't seem very important, huh!

Mo Xuan didn't understand why he was so surprised.

A mere five days... was that long?

Actually, it wasn't particularly long, but the time for leveling up was precious!

The length of this time was... truly a case of being tasteless to eat, yet a pity to discard.

Mo Xuan saw through his concerns.

"Don't worry, Brother Tian Mu... Mo Song can gain such great benefits by following you, so the clan has prepared a sufficient gift of gratitude for you! We definitely won't let you waste your time here for nothing!"

Do you know my losses, to be so certain?

"Whether it's a gift or not is irrelevant; the main thing is that my world is still waiting for me to save it!"

Alas, not only did he get on a pirate ship, but it had already sailed a distance from the port.

Trying to jump ship now would only get him wet all over.

Might as well go to the Howling Moon Sky Wolf's territory first to see what's going on.

It wasn't that Yang Jian trusted Mo Xuan to have truly prepared many good things for him.

He mainly thought that Tian Mu also agreed with him making this trip...

After half a day, the group finally arrived at Mo Xuan's clan territory.

Upon arrival, Yang Jian planned to summon Mo Song.

After all, time was tight and the task was heavy.

Since he had already come, saying he wouldn't do it now wouldn't allow him to leave!

Hmm... Sure enough, when he arrived at the place and intended to cast the Beast Summoning spell, he found that the Beast Summoning, which had been as easy as moving his arm in the Eastern Continent, no longer worked!

He felt his own talent, and even the effect of 'seeing flowers through a fog' was gone.

The skill, which had seemed to be engraved in his soul, could no longer be used!

Having completely lost the system's assistance, Yang Jian could only rely on himself to regain his identity as a hunter.

This was Mo Xuan's first time interacting with a first-generation player since he was born... Seeing Yang Jian's questioning gaze, he didn't know how to respond!

"Young friend, there's no need to rush. It's perfectly normal for skills to be unusable without the game system's assistance!"

As Yang Jian and Mo Xuan were looking at each other, at a loss.

A clear male voice came from outside the door.

"Father? Why have you come?"

"A friend has come from afar, so of course I must welcome him!"

Outside the door, a figure who looked much younger than Mo Xuan walked in.

He was Mo Xuan's father, Mo Ren!

Name: Howling Moon Sky Wolf, Mo Ren

Description: A Wolf King with peak Hero-level strength, he was one of the first-generation players in the Tian Yao Realm. With a purple talent, he barely managed to reach Hero-level strength, which was his limit!

Note: A Wolf King who has lived for over 1800 years, he still has many, many years before growing old...

An 1800-year-old Old Wolf?

Yang Jian looked at Mo Ren, who seemed younger than himself, and was a little at a loss for words!

He could only say... it's good to have strength!

I also want to live long and see far.

"Hello, Mr. Mo!"

"Hello, you must be the master Xiao Song mentioned in his letter, right? Then we're family! Coming to Moon Wolf Valley is like coming home, don't be reserved!"

Yang Jian had no mind to waste words with this person.

He hadn't seen any benefits yet.

Instead, his entire skill system had some problems.

Mo Song's advancement would take another five days, and he really didn't have the patience to wait here!

Mo Ren probably also saw through Yang Jian's thoughts and stopped with the pleasantries.

"I know you're in a hurry, but don't rush yet!"

Mo Ren invited Yang Jian to sit down and discuss in detail...
