Mr. Black was strong; after entering the canoe, he did not pressure the two of them to do anything; he paddled the canoe himself. 

 

However, Li Yan agreed to do that for Mr. Black; his attribute is flame and wind, so he was able to control the water and make the canoe move faster. 

 

"Brilliant, brilliant, you have really mastered your attribute very well. Only those that have mastered water and wind will be able to control the wind like you do. I wonder what sect you belong to." 

 

"None. I'm going to participate in the recruiting ceremony coming up soon, and if I'm lucky enough, I'll be recruited into one of the best sects in the world." 

 

"That's a huge dream; work harder, and you will even have the opportunity to pick from the sects instead of the sects picking you." 

 

"Thank you for your words of encouragement," Mr. Black said. "Your words are really encouraging." Li Yan almost cried; only Mo Shen was the stranger in their conversation. 

 

Mr. Black turned his attention to him and asked what his attribute was, to which he replied, "I don't know yet." As he said, Mr. Black's smile seized but returned immediately; nonetheless, he did not say anything to him. 

 

It was strange for someone his age not to know what their attribute is; it's only possible if someone is still not up to the 3rd level of the Qi disciple realm. 

 

"Sail westward; we will have a good catch if we get to the middle first."

 

Following his instruction, Li Yan propelled the canoe even faster until they got to the place where they were going to fish for the day. 

 

Mr. Black brought out the net from his spatial ring and tossed it inside the river; the net spread in the air and fell into the river, then Li Yan instinctively propelled the canoe forward, causing the net to sink deeper and entrap more fish. 

 

Two hours later, the crew was out of the river, but they were not the first to do so, as there were others who were already out of the river and had started selling their fish. 

 

The moment they brought it out, the crowd was surprised that the net was big and the fish inside were super interesting species. 

 

There was even a special one called the "golden fin" fish; it is a meal for the rich because it is extremely expensive. 

 

Other fishermen looked at Mr. Black with jealousy, while the wealthy guys came to price the fish.

 

"I'm selling the golden fin fish for fifty low-grade crystals. If you are not willing to buy, get lost." Mr. Black Tone transformed immediately, such that even Mo Shen was fearful of him. 

 

Two wealthy ladies dressed in clean purple dresses came to buy from them. The ladies were smitten by Li Yan's handsomeness and tried wooing him. 

 

Mo Shen watched with a fascinated look on his face as the ladies started holding their own auction for the golden fin fish. 

 

"This is what I'm talking about; the two of you coming here is already a blessing to my day." Mr. Black was really excited. 

 

Mo Shen was in charge of selling the other species of fish, and he too had his own charm, which was his eyes that contrasted with each other. 

 

And that helped him win some ladies over who bought everything from him; they did not woo him that much, only calling him handsome, but that was enough; at least no one called him ugly. 

 

They cleared all the fish at once, and Mo Shen even became the first to finish selling his own, which made Li Yan quite jealous. 

 

The ladies here were bickering with each other; all of them just wanted to feel his skin when they took the golden fin fish. 

 

"Gross, they are too mature for me." He lamented. 

 

Then, a young lady walked towards him and immediately moved the price the others were arguing about by 250%. He had no choice but to sell it to her; she smiled at him, and he too smiled at her. 

 

That was when he saw her big brother grinning devilishly at him; the smile on his face disappeared immediately, while Mo Shen could not help but laugh. 

 

The two of them ended up going home with the initial price of the golden fin fish, and the other youth who came to work gave them a scornful look. 

 

It was all because Mr. Black was kind that they got that amount; normally they should have received 20 low-grade crystals as payment, but got an extra 30 on top. 

 

Mr. Black begged the two of them to come back tomorrow so that they can try their luck again. It was his first time catching a golden fin fish, and he felt that it was because of the good luck charm they possessed that he was able to do that. 

 

On his way home, Mo Shen stopped at a cloth store, where he bought a finely designed mask that covered the nose and mouth only. 

 

At least that will be able to conceal his identity; the people who wanted him dead are still celebrating his death, and no one would suspect even in their wildest dreams that he would survive that.

 

They returned home late in the evening without any casualties on their way. After eating and doing his evening exercise routine, he started making plans to get his revenge on the Lui family. That was his main focus for now because the Lui family is weaker. 

 

First, he will use his hidden identity to gather intel about the Lui family, then he will start taking down the

 

His brain was sharp at stuff like that; besides, he was a gamer and received too many quests that were just like this. All he needed was a calculative mind and a little bit of scheming, and he would be able to take down his threat. 

 

The next day, both Mo Shen and Li Yun left for the Backclay River, but on their way back, they met a group of bandits beating young men to collect their money.
