"Then we'll be leaving first." After the meal was over, Fan Mu and the others bade Qin Ruyun farewell. As they left, Qin Yin did not forget to remind them to be extra careful.

Walking out of the Dragon Flame Tower, the noise from the outside world immediately entered his ears. Even though the sun had set, the Dragon Flame Market was still bustling with people.

He passed through the throng of people and arrived at Huo Shuang's house. The bright moon was in the sky, shining down on him like a hundred days had passed.

The second time, after he pushed the door open, Huo Shuang was already standing at the door with the previous restaurant manager to welcome them. Seeing them return, Huo Shuang opened his folding fan skillfully, "My friends, why did you come back so late? The shopkeeper and I thought something had happened, so we wanted to go out and look for them.

Then, Huo Shuang bent down and handed over his hand. However, he didn't expect that his invitation would be rejected.

"Brother, you're being considerate," Lingyun said as he shook his head. His gaze swept across Fan Mu and Susu's faces, then he shook his head and replied, "We've already eaten outside, so let's just forget about it."

"Oh? Since that's the case, then I won't force it. It's already late, and there's still the competition tomorrow. You guys should rest well. I still have some things to take care of, so I won't be keeping anything. "Huo Shuang folded his fan and said his goodbyes.

"Is this person suspicious?" Seeing Huo Shuang's calm expression, Ling Yun asked suspiciously.

"Alright, let's not talk about this and go study tomorrow's artifacts for a while. Do you think it's too eye-catching for us to create such a thing? Haha!" Before Qin Yin left, he told him not to continue discussing such nonsense in his mansion. He then changed the topic and sought the two's suggestions regarding the Dragon Flame competition.

"How about we make the Flame Light Armor? We've made it before, so it's easy to make it with our experience," Lingyun suggested.

"Brother Yun is really a scarier in my heart, you can say whatever I want to say." Susu stuck out her tongue mischievously. Hearing that, Fan Mu nodded. It seemed the three of them had the same idea.

"Come, let's familiarize ourselves with the process again. Tomorrow, we won't be able to proceed with 'Heaven's Transformation'." The three of them immediately became spirited. They entered the room with the fragrant chrysanthemum, closed the door, and began their research.

On the other side, Huo Shuang's room was brightly lit. Two men in black could clearly be seen kneeling on the ground, waiting for the man behind Yu Ping to speak.

A sly smile flashed on his face. The man behind the jade screen opened his mouth and asked in an aged voice, "How are your preparations going?"

"Lord, please be at ease. Everything is ready and it is definitely fake," One of the men in black replied.

"Alright, I'll listen to your words. This operation will be the time for you to atone for your deeds. Don't make any mistakes for me.

"Yes, my lord!"

"One thing to remember, when the time comes, the cooking should be more normal. Don't let the competition team become suspicious."

"Understood!" Both of them answered in unison as if they had been trained.

"Okay, you can all go down. I still have things to do," The mysterious man raised the corner of his mouth and revealed his resplendent golden teeth.

"Yes sir!" After receiving their orders, the two of them tactfully left the room, leaving the man's laughter echoing in the room.

"Heaven's Source Stone, the legendary creator of elemental energy. How could it be so easily obtained? Hahaha, what a bunch of ignorant fellows. Leaving such a treasure for you all is simply a waste of a heavenly treasure, and only when it enters my hands can it truly show its worth, "the man wildly laughed, slowly following the rotation of his chair as he sank into the ground.

In the forest, facing the moonlight, the two of them sat on the ground, drinking wine, seemingly having a pleasant conversation.

"From the looks of it, everything is ready. Little San, after we finish this, let's escape this abyss," Huo Shuang said truthfully after drinking. He seemed to be tired of living like a thief and wanted to disappear.

"It's easy for me to break away from the organization, but the problem is you. A person like you will be hard to find in a lifetime. Do you think he will let you go so easily?" Xiao San laughed and hit Huo Shuang in the heart.

"So, I don't intend to tell him that we have secretly escaped." Huo Shuang smiled bitterly as he looked at the distant Haoyue, falling into loneliness.

"Are you speaking the truth?" Xiao San did not dare to believe his ears, and suddenly exclaimed in surprise. His voice was no longer the voice of the market, it had regained its former boldness.

Huo Shuang nodded, but didn't say anything.

"I've been waiting for this day for three years, Duo'er." Having received confirmation, Xiao San's eyes suddenly became hazy with tears.

"Blame me! Come, drink, tomorrow is the last two days of work I will be doing for these Sky Dragon People! " Huo Shuang raised his glass.

"Alright!" Xiao San boldly clinked his cup and drank the wine. He closed his eyes and happened to look at the starry night. Suddenly, his memory became blurry as if he had thought of something.

"Little San?" Huo Shuang could not help but call out in his ear in surprise when he saw the strong man's expression suddenly change.

"There's something weighing down on my mind, but I can't recall it." Little Three pounded his chest, a little upset. He could feel that this matter was quite important.

"If you can't remember, then don't think about it. Come, let's drink," Huo Shuang laughed.

Huo Shuang's words made Little Three feel a lot more comfortable. As he turned his mind around, he actually remembered it. Joy also quickly appeared on his face.

"Duo, I'll tell you!"

"Hmm?"

"Didn't you arrange for me to disguise as the stall owner at the market this morning? You even brought out a few ancient techniques and some strange scriptures. You really have to spend money to buy them!" Little San said excitedly as he took a sip of his wine.

"Oh? After earning a few coins, you're already so happy, unlike your personality, "Huo Shuang laughed out loud, not taking Little Three's words seriously.

"No, it's mainly because the book that he bought surprised me. No one has ever asked about that book, < Two Elements of Destiny >. It is the book that the people of the dragon race have been looking for."

Up until now, it had always been an important mission, never ending. However, the rarity of the two methods could be imagined, and after using so many methods and manpower, he was still unable to find anyone. For a while, he could only put it aside as a secret mission.

"Is that true?"

"Absolutely!"

"I'll go and report the situation now. We've accomplished a great deed on this matter. Even if we leave now, the number of people chasing after us will probably be reduced by a lot," Huo Shuang muttered to himself as he got up and left.
