Split Claws were common Monster Beasts, not too expensive, but also not difficult to sell.
After some haggling, they sold them for a total of over eighty Spirit Stones.
After deducting the costs for Mo Hua’s Formation Painting and the activation of the Formation, each person split twelve Spirit Stones.
Holding the hefty Spirit Stones in their hands, Da’hu and the others looked stunned.
This was the first time in their lives that the three of them had earned so many Spirit Stones.
Mo Hua was used to this, but seeing the excitement of Da’hu and the others made him very happy.
Da’hu said, “Mo Hua, we owe it to you, whatever you want to eat, it’s on us!”
“That’s right, we’re treating you!” Shuanghu and Xiaohu nodded in agreement.
“No need, I also owe it to your help,” Mo Hua waved his hand, “keep the Spirit Stones for now, let’s head to the mountains together some other time when we’re free.”
Monster Beasts had strong physical bodies and their Blood Qi recovered quickly, and though Mo Hua could use a Formation to blast them into serious injuries, or even near death, it wasn’t assured that it would be fatal.
He wasn’t a Body Cultivator and wasn’t skilled in close combat, so he needed Da’hu and the others to help finish the job.
Although he had learned the Water Passing Step and could entangle with Monster Beasts, there was no need to take that risk.
After all, even good swimmers can drown; overconfidence sooner or later leads to a fall.
After selling the Monster Beast and splitting the Spirit Stones, they looked up to see the bright lights on the streets.
The night streets were getting lively.
Mo Hua had been busy with Formation Painting and practicing Spells, and it had been a long time since he was out.
It was the same for the trio too, ever since they became Monster Hunters, it felt like a heavy stone was pressing on their shoulders, making them somber.
Now that they had hunted a Monster Beast, they all breathed a sigh of relief, feeling much lighter, and strolled down the street to enjoy the novel and bustling scene before parting ways to go home.
On their way, Xiaohu asked, “What should we do with these Spirit Stones?”
After some thought, Shuanghu said, “I want to give them to mom.”
The three fell silent, then pooled their Spirit Stones together, a total of over thirty.
When they got home, it was already a bit late, Auntie Meng was heating up the meal and upon seeing them, couldn’t help but complain:
“All day, I didn’t know where you had run off to, not even bothering to eat, I’ve reheated it several times…”
Da’hu handed her the Storage Bag.
Auntie Meng took it, feeling its surprising weight, and asked in confusion, “What’s this?”
Upon opening it, she found over thirty sparkling Spirit Stones.
Auntie Meng was taken aback.
“Mom, we earned these Spirit Stones from Monster Hunting, please take them,” they said.
It took Auntie Meng a moment to come back to her senses, looking at the three children who had grown up before her eyes, her tears welled up in an instant.
She felt gratified, wanted to smile, but tears still streamed down her face.
She had shed many tears in her life, all salty and bitter, but today’s were tears of joy.
