"And he told you all that without saying a single word?"

Jane asked with a dubious tone. Miles just nodded proudly and confirmed.

"Yes, we understand each other without words."

He just told Ken and the girls most of Henry's story aside from a few obvious facts like the fake techniques that were donated to the sect. He didn't know this information either, which was why he told Ken that Henry lacked suitable techniques when he introduced the latter.

Ken approached Henry and placed his hand on the latter's arm. He activated Luck Sense and checked his luck.

'Wow. This could be a good replacement for Annie's luck.'

The monk's luck was a fervently burning green flame. Ken estimated it as 700 LU (A/N – Luck Units), which meant he could improve his own luck nearly by three times if he took it. 

With his current 125 LU he already got many opportunities – Maria as a subordinate, a powerful bodyguard, and many of his plans worked smoothly.

'Unfortunately, I need his permission to share his luck with me without incurring the heavens' wrath.'

On another note, Ken realized that the monk has killed humans before, but he couldn't sense his bloodlust simply because Henry's doctrine made him see killing 'bad humans' as the same as killing beasts, and the monk probably defined every enemy as a 'bad human'.

The group kept hunting, and to everyone's surprise, Ken kept purchasing all the fifth-grade materials as if he had an unending source of money. He also made sure to store all the beasts they found in his storage ring.

"Guys, I think that we should change our treasure-hunting tactic. Rather than go find beasts one by one, it'd be better to pull other disciples who have already done that for us and rob them."

After seeing the monk's power first-handed, he felt safer going with the robbing plan. He was worried a fifth-stage cultivator from the top 5 sects would be able to easily defeat his guards and bully them, but now he was sure that the monk wasn't inferior to those guys.

'Well, as a professional robber, I was embarrassed about collecting resources the normal way. It was like a chef eating instant noodles.'

"What did you have in mind, Little Brother?"

Diana asked curiously. She was sure she saw a glimmer in Ken's red eyes. 

"We can wear back our masks and rob others. We can use the three corpses we took earlier, put storage rings on their fingers, and make sure to attract other disciples of the Four Seasons Sect."

"What if other Divine Sword Sect disciples come and find the corpses? Wouldn't they be angry that we use their friends' corpses as bait?"

Diana still found a problem with Ken's plan; if their allies will want to retrieve the corpses, they wouldn't be allowed to kill them. They already agreed not to kill anyone from the Divine Sword Sect to avoid getting killed by the sect.

"I'm sure some of them will find the corpses, but I doubt they will approach it. They'd fear it's a trap, and their rewards from taking the corpses' belongings wouldn't be worth getting killed over. In contrast, the guys from the Four Seasons Sect will want the merit points and will be less worried that it's a trap."

"Why?"

This time it was Miles who tried to understand Ken's logic.

"How would you feel about using the corpses of your fellow disciples from our Phoenix Feather Sect?"

"That's despicable! I wouldn't ever do that."

Miles answered without hesitation. It was heartless to use your friends' corpses just to earn some resources.

"Exactly, but we aren't true Divine Sword Sect disciples, so we don't need to feel that way about our tactic. The elders of the sect might frown if they find out about our actions, but they will not do anything either as long as we produce results."

·ƈθm "Oh, I see. How are we going to stage it, and what are we going to do if we face a group of intermediate fifth-rank cultivators or even stronger enemies?"

Jane asked about the glaring problem of the plan, but Ken just shook his head.

"It won't be a problem, just follow me. Diana, Henry, try to find us a cave."

Ken gave them instructions and the two worked on the assignment. They walked close to the mountainside until Henry found one first.

"Henry found one over there. He says there's a mother wolf and 5 pups inside."

Miles reported Henry's information again. Even Ken couldn't figure out how Miles and Henry communicated silently.

The group of five climbed the mountain agilely and soon stood in front of a growling white wolf with 5 pups behind it, protecting them with its body. The wolf was only a peak fourth-rank beast, and Miles killed it quickly before it could howl and call for the rest of the pack.

"Oww, the pups are so cute. We can't kill them!"

Diana protested to Ken who already unsheathed his sword to make a quick work out of them. He also thought they were cute, but he still didn't have any qualms about killing them.

"Can you breastfeed them then?"

"Wh- what? No, I can't breastfeed anything, and I wouldn't breastfeed a wolf pup!"

"So are you planning on letting them die from hunger?"

"Aren't you an alchemist? You can make food for them."

Diana answered quickly while standing in Ken's way. Ken only raised an eyebrow and tried to go around her, but she persisted.

"Stop trying to save them. I also think they're cute, but we will leave this place in a week or two, and it makes no sense to keep them alive for one week just to leave them to die afterward. I hope you don't think of traveling in the central zone with 5 pups following us."

Ken denied her request and prepared to kill them. If Diana wanted to keep them alive, she had to be capable of providing them with everything they needed.

"You don't know how old they are, maybe they will be able to eat meat in a week from now!"

"Will you provide them with meat?"

"Yes, why not?"

"Wolf parents bring meat in their stomachs and regurgitate it for their pups after those lick their mouths."

"What does that mean?"

"They pretty much vomit the ingested food for the pups to make it easier for them to eat it."
