Since the women gave up the mysterious stone, they wanted at least to use the pangolin's scales to order armor.

"All right, you can have the stone. But we are taking the carcass to ourselves, is that fine?"

"Sure."

Although Ken could also use the armor, he wasn't too greedy, and he understood that he had to share the spoils. He'd have a hard time achieving it on his own.

"And if it's something that we can benefit from without taking causing you a loss, please share it with your dear big sisters, okay?"

"Sure."

Ken agreed again without much caring; he could just agree and decide later whether to keep his word or not. 

'I need to do some research, but from the look of it, I should be able to create some useful pills and formations using this stone to empower my soul. Anyway, it will have to wait until I collect more information, most likely when I'm closer to the fifth stage.'

With that note, Ken stored the white stone in his storage ring and the three continued their plans for the rest of their stay in the central zone.

"We've already spent two days here, which means we still have a remaining 12-day duration to stay in the Outer Ring, according to our initial plan. What should we do next?"

Ken asked the two girls while they were having pangolin meat along with the two bodyguards. The value was in the beast's tough scales, so they didn't hold back from eating the meat after skinning it.

"I guess we can continue strolling in the Outer Ring and hope to run into someone we can kill or something we can plunder."

Diana replied with some hesitation. It was the only plan she could think about, but it wasn't a real plan.

"What about you, Henry? Would you like to walk with us and point us toward treasures and other humans?"

Ken waved his hand and 100,000 medium Qi Stones floated to the bald bodyguard. The average price for fifth-grade materials stood at 10,000, but Ken paid ten times that for the stone. 

He didn't know whether Henry knew the real value of the stone they found, so it'd be stupid to deter him from offering his help again in the future only to save some Qi Stones when Ken had plenty of those.

"He said he agrees."

Miles said as he looked at his friend enviously as the latter stored all the money in his storage ring. For the first time, Miles and Diana agreed on something; they were both feeling jealous.

Ken raised an eyebrow since Henry didn't even nod, but decided to trust Miles on the matter and went on to the next thing on the agenda.

"Here are some self-created pills called 'Concealment Pills'. After digesting them, they will suppress your presence significantly as if you were using a top-tier concealing technique. It's based on the Darkness element, so it's most effective at nights and generally in the shadows."

Ken distributed the pills to the girls. When he offered them to Miles and Henry, only the former took them. He revealed them only now on purpose; he wanted to create the impression he was trusting the girls more and more with every passing day.

Even when he truly enjoyed their company, he couldn't hold back his manipulative nature.

"Does it really work? The good concealing pills are all at the fifth grade."

"I guess there's no harm in trying."

With those pills, the five chose to rest until sunset and move during the night. The pill couldn't hide killing intent, but it would hinder most of the other detection techniques if their enemies were at the fourth stage or the low fifth stage.

--------

"Take the pills."

The 5 left the cave that night and traveled together. This time, Henry and Miles were walking close to the other 3 instead of hiding in the distance.

Ken, Henry, and Diana all used their detection techniques and remained cautious as they walked between the tall mountains. It was dark, but with their perception as cultivators, the moonlight was enough for them to see clearly.

"Young Master, Henry said he feels something good southeast from here."

Miles broke the silence as he got news from his partner. Ken barely stopped a smile from creeping on his face.

'I don't know how useful he is in battle but seems like I found myself a treasure detector there.'

The group continued hunting for treasures the whole day. When faced with a fourth-rank beast, the younger ones worked together to take it down. When faced with a low fifth-rank beast, the other two took care of it. As for higher than that, they took a detour and gave up on the treasure.

Ken noticed that the beasts were much stronger than the ones near his sect; their bloodline was purer.

'It's a fifth-rank beast. Let's see how those two bodyguards handle it.'

Ken watched with anticipation as Henry and Miles prepared to attack the beast. It was a low fifth-rank goat, and it was jumping on the rocks elegantly as if it was walking on a sidewalk.

The goat was rather special; instead of only relying on its strong body, it had a strong affinity with Wind Qi, and its speed was abnormal. Even Ken's One Step could only match its speed.

"Don't intervene in their battle, we don't want a fifth-rank beast to aim at us."

Ken warned the 2 girls who nodded in return. It was relatively safe to pass in this beast's territory since it was an herbivore and didn't hunt others for food.

Miles unsheathed his saber while Henry didn't show any particular change in his stance. Evidently, he didn't use weapons.

*Mmmmm*

A humming sound vibrated in the air as Miles charged toward the goat, and Ken's eyes opened in astonishment as he watched Henry brings up one palm to his chest, his fingers just slightly under his chin.
