I Can Extract Everything

"Okay, since I\'ve had enough information about this incident. It\'s time to announce the punishment of you two as violators of the rules."

Li Hai finally decided to close this interrogation session.

"Eh?"

Huang Haoming was startled and quickly said, "What about my problem? I mean, this mark. This thing is disadvantageous to me in many ways..."

Li Hai smiled and said, "Young Master Huang, you can bring it home and report it to your elders in the clan. I believe that they must have a way of dealing with it."

"Ugh,"

Huang Haoming was a bit taken aback, and then he smiled awkwardly.

He\'s right.

He and Li Hai didn\'t have any relationship and they weren\'t even close.

What right did he have to ask Li Hai for help?

It seems like he can only report this incident to the clan elders and ask for their help in dealing with this tricky problem that inadvertently happened to him.

Li Hai took out a scroll of paper from his ring.

He placed it on the stone table and then opened it down.

Then, he wrote something on it while reading it aloud.

"Name: Huang Haoming, Age: 27 years old, Origin: Huang Clan, Cultivation Base: Eight Stage of Qi Condensation Realm. Crime: Provocation. Punishment: 5000 low-grade spirit stones."

"Fuck! 5000 low-grade spirit stones? Why don\'t you just rob me?!"

Huang Haoming was blurted in rage when he heard the number of spirit stones he had to pay for just a slight provocation.

It was too much; he felt like he was being ripped off here.

Li Hai paused for a moment before he said again.

"You\'re right, I should correct it..."

"Oh, Senior Li Hai, pardon my rudeness just now. I was simply too shocked by the number of spirit stones I had to pay. After all, 5000 low-grade spirit stones are not small money for me. Anyway, thanks for Senior Li Hai\'s understanding-"

"Name: Huang Haoming, Age: 27 years old, Origin: Huang Clan, Cultivation Base: Eight Stage of Qi Condensation Realm. Crime: Provocation and broke property of the market. Punishment: 10,000 low-grade spirit stones."

"..."

Young Master Huang is speechless.

"... What property of the market?"

"You broke the stone pillar in the market."

"But it was Mo Xuan\'s attack that bounced me off..."

"But you were the one who destroyed it."

"Fine! But 10,000 low-grade spirit stones, isn\'t that too much?"

"20,000 low-"

"No, wait! I\'ll pay 10,000 low-grade spirit stones! But I don\'t have that much money now, can I go home first and get that money?"

"I will send someone to notify your clan regarding this matter. For now, Young Master Huang can rest for a while at the Resting Demon Palace."

(・_・)

Huang Haoming, "..."

Moments later, he was dragged by two guards to the Resting Demon Palace.

Shortly after that, Qin Yi could faintly hear the sound of his miserable screams from somewhere, and he couldn\'t help but get goosebumps.

Luckily I only broke the sect rules, not the city regulations.

As he was grateful for his fate, Li Hai\'s voice suddenly crept into his ears.

"So, junior brother..."

"Oh, hai1!"

"... I suppose that you are rather proficient at sneaking, right? Otherwise, it would be impossible for you to leave the sect without the knowledge of the gatekeeper."

"Ahaha, no way, senior brother..."

Qin Yi laughed awkwardly as he scratched his head.

Li Hai smiled faintly and asked, "Well, this senior brother isn\'t going to ask you how you did that. I just wanted to ask, can you move without anyone else knowing?"

Qin Yi was surprised to get a question like this.

Can he do that? Yeah, he can.

He had a Hidden Night Cloak that could make him move without others noticing his existence.

He had the Mystic Talent— The Child of Void that could make him go in and out of the void.

With them, it could be said that he was quite an expert at hiding and escaping.

However, in front of Li Hai, he couldn\'t say that he could do that since Li Hai would make him feel even more naked.

"Senior Brother Li, if you are talking about my Hidden Night Cloak, then my answer is "No." Although this Artifact has the ability to hide my presence, it is only helpful in certain situations, such as in dark places and crowded places. However, If I stand in front of other people, they can unmistakably feel and see my existence."

Qin Yi explained it prudently.

He didn\'t want to talk about his Hidden Night Cloak\'s night ability before Li Hai revealed his purpose for asking this.

"That is indeed a little tricky..."

Li Hai pinched his chin, and then he smiled.

"However, if what you said was true, Then I think that the ability you use to sneak out of the sect is not this artifact\'s ability. Isn\'t that right, Junior Brother Qin?"

Qin Yi sweated a little, and he coughed.

He felt that he had just given the wrong answer. 

However, he had a feeling that even if he answered with a different answer, this person would still be able to make him feel the same way.

"What do you want, Senior Brother Li. If senior brother needs my help, I will gladly do it."

"Then, I will thank my junior brother in advance."

Li Hai smiled graciously at Qin Yi.

"... No problem."

Qin Yi also replied with a smile, but his heart was bleeding. 

Fudge, this senior brother is really good at pitting people!

He felt dejected.

What\'s even worse is that he couldn\'t get his revenge by extracting this person.

Suddenly he watched Li Hai stand up and say to him.

"Let\'s go!"

"Go? Go where?"

Qin Yi tilted his head in confusion.

Li Hai smiled and replied, "We will track down that seller."

Qin Yi hesitated and said, "But he\'s been gone a long time, who knows where he went..."

"Fret not, junior brother, this senior brother would never say anything baseless. Since I said we\'ll track down that seller, I certainly know where we had to go."

After saying that, he gripped his golden sword on his waist.

"Jin Shen, transform!"

As the command fell, a dazzling golden light suddenly broke out from the golden sword in Li Hai\'s hand. In the next moment, the light gradually extinguished and revealed something shocking.

It was a gigantic creature with a gold head and was characterized by a short face with long and smooth metallic horns that swept back from its nose and brow. Four pairs of long, flexible muscular spines that resemble whiskers or barbels descended from the mouth and nostrils.

It had broad sail-like wings, golden scales, and extremely long tails, and it kept closed upright over its back.

These features contributed to give this creature a look of grace and sagacity.

Qin Yi was struck in stupefaction upon seeing the emergence of this creature.

That is because this creature is a Golden Dragon!

If other people witnessed this scene, they would also be no less shocked than Qin Yi.

After all, it was an infrequent opportunity to witness Dragon in person.

"... Dragons..."

Qi Yi was still in shock as he was mumbling.

A few moments later, he finally came to his senses and unbelievably turned to Li Hai.

"Senior brother, is this a real Dragon?"

Li Hai looked at Qin Yi amusedly, "What if it\'s a real Dragon?"

I want to take a picture and flaunt it on social media!

Of course, he couldn\'t say that to Li Hai\'s face.

However, dragons are scarce creatures in this world. Let alone the Golden Dragon, the appearance of an ordinary Dragon is already very rare.

And now Qin Yi saw the Golden Dragon right before his eyes. This makes him have the urge to show off to his friends.

Unfortunately, he only had a few friends in the sect, and they had no way of meeting him for a while.

"Ahem, I just didn\'t expect that I would be able to witness the legendary Golden Dragon here. It\'s hard to believe that this is real."

Qin Yi laughed as he scratched his cheek.

"Well, this isn\'t a real Golden Dragon but just the spirit of my sword artifact. Moreover, this Dragon form is only created from a spiritual body not a real physical body."

As he explained Qin Yi\'s doubts, he climbed onto his Golden Dragon\'s back.

"And I call him by the name of Jin Shen. Go up!"

"Me?"

Qin Yi pointed his finger at his own face as he thought he had heard it wrong.

"Hmm, is it possible that junior brother has the ability to fly faster than my sword?"

"Senior Brother Li jest. I can\'t even move faster than a four-legged beast, how can I fly faster than a Dragon."

With that, Qin Yi no longer hesitated to ride this Golden Dragon and sat behind Li Hai.

"Senior brother, your sword spirit won\'t get angry and throw me in the middle of the road, right?"

"Fret not, junior brother, my Jin Shen likes children the most. Alright, let\'s go, Jin Shen!"

Jin Shen immediately flapped its wings and caused a wave of wind around the area.

Qin Yi, who just finished processing Li Hai\'s words, couldn\'t help but twitch his mouth.

Excuse me?

Children?

"Hai" is the Japanese word for "Yes".
