NOVEL WEB Chapter 26: I won't tell Anyone!
"Brother, it seems like people don't use pets for travel in your place. Here, we use beasts for transportation. But all these beasts cost hundreds, sometimes even thousands of spirit stones. Even in the Burning Sun Pavilion, the 13 disciples on the main peak have mountain eagles as pets," Fatty explained in detail.
"Oh… then why not take the mountain eagle? I think it would be faster than a chariot. Why are you calling it a scam?" Mo Han asked.
"Brother Han, who would lend a mountain eagle for only 30 spirit stones? And if we take a mountain eagle to the Burning Sun Pavilion, all the disciples will see us as enemies. Only the prime disciples on the main peak are allowed to have flying beasts as pets!" Fatty Lambu said in a hurried tone, trying to drag Mo Han away from the old man.
In the next instant, Mo Han stopped Fatty and asked the old man to show his mountain eagle.
The old man casually whistled, and soon a gust of wind swept over. In the next second, a large mountain eagle, capable of carrying more than ten people on its back, landed before them.
Mo Han eagerly examined the eagle from all angles, his eyes filled with excitement. He was clearly thrilled at the idea of flying through the sky. Meanwhile, Fatty anxiously stared at the eagle with a nervous look.
"Elder, aren't you afraid we might steal your pet?" Mo Han asked, caressing the eagle's head. Brought to you by MV6LEMPY6R.
"From your robes, I can tell you belong to the Burning Sun Peak. Besides, I have my own ways of retrieving my things," the old man said confidently as he extended his hand, gesturing for the spirit stones.
With a smile, Mo Han placed ten small pouches—each containing three spirit stones—into the old man's hand.
After counting the spirit stones, the elder gave a satisfied nod.
As Mo Han prepared to mount, the mountain eagle stretched one of its wings. Mo Han easily walked along the wing and sat on the saddle placed just behind the eagle's neck.
Fatty followed excitedly, ready to experience his first-ever flight. Since childhood, it had been his dream to fly on a beast.
"Boy, don't forget to feed the beast. If it gets hungry, it won't obey your commands," the old man warned, waving his hand.
Mo Han nodded and gave a gentle pat to the eagle's head.
With a powerful breath, the mountain eagle stretched its wings wide. In one mighty flap, it soared straight into the sky. While Fatty clung tightly to the feathers, Mo Han embraced the exhilarating feeling of flying through the heavens.
Thankfully, the old mountain eagle was obedient, following Mo Han's directions as he used a long spear to guide its path.
"Brother Han, let's head between those mountains. We need to go that way," Fatty suggested, pointing toward the distant peaks.
Mo Han raised the spear and directed the eagle toward the mountains.
"Brother Han, in the future, we must buy a spirit beast. It would be so much easier to command a beast with just our thoughts rather than using sticks," Fatty shouted above the wind.
"Oh…" Mo Han exclaimed in surprise, learning for the first time about spirit beasts.
Meanwhile, the servant sent by Ron Lee stood below, staring up at the distant eagle in the sky with his mouth wide open.
"What the…!" the servant exclaimed in shock, never expecting Mo Han to fly away on a mountain eagle.
"How am I supposed to follow them now? At least I need to figure out their direction," he muttered, climbing a tall tree to observe the eagle's path.
Against the blue sky, the mountain eagle looked like a small dot. The servant strained to keep his eyes on it, noting that it was flying in a straight path without any deviation.
"Why are they heading toward the Twin Mountain Pass?" he murmured, struggling to keep the eagle in sight. "Wait… there's only one place in that direction!"
After reaching a conclusion, the servant climbed down and approached the old man who had lent the eagle to Mo Han.
But the old man ignored him completely, not offering a single word.
Frustrated, the servant finally handed over three spirit stones and asked about Mo Han and the eagle. The old man only replied that he had sold the mountain eagle to Mo Han.
Left with no choice, the servant dashed back toward Burning Sun Peak, eager to report everything to Ron Lee.

"Brother Han, from here we just need to follow this pink water stream to reach the Pink Blossom Tree Sect. By the way, I forgot to ask—why are we even going there? Do you like a girl from that sect?" Fatty asked with a sheepish smile.
"Not for a woman… I want to find out my body constitution. To choose a suitable cultivation method, I need to know my constitution first. Jia Kai said the Pink Blossom Tree Sect has a method to test body constitutions up to the King level," Mo Han explained while steering the mountain eagle along the pink stream.
"Brother, no need to lie to me. What's the use of knowing your body constitution when we don't even have a cultivation method to practice? You don't need to hide your desires from me. I won't tell anyone—even if you want to sleep with women from the Pink Blossom Tree Sect," Fatty replied with a naughty grin.
"Stop speaking nonsense… I'm seriously going to learn about my body constitution. If you want, you can come with me to test yours. I'll even find you a suitable cultivation method," Mo Han offered, his tone serious.
But Fatty didn't believe him. He knew too well how rare cultivation methods were.
"Don't drag me into this, Brother Han. Do whatever you want in that sect. Just protect me from those slutty witches," Fatty said with a nervous expression, staring at the distant pearl-white sect building.
Shaking his head, Mo Han guided the eagle toward the beautiful structure.
With a single glance, Mo Han could tell that the pearl-white building nestled among the pink trees was the Pink Blossom Tree Sect. The scene before him captivated his heart—the serene pink trees on the mountain, the pearl-white building at the mountain's base, and the gentle pink stream flowing in front all looked like a painting come to life.
