May 30th.
5:59 AM.
At the break of dawn, the first light of day was just beginning to bloom.
A cool morning breeze swept through the oak forest surrounding the manor, rustling the branches and shaking loose a few drops of undried night dew.
In a bedroom in the east wing of the third floor, the first ray of sunlight pierced through a gap in the brown curtains, slanting into the dim room.
Refracted by the carved glass, the light shattered into a mottled pattern of diamonds.
Inside the room.
Hu Qi clenched his fist.
A ball of black energy in his hand instantly exploded.
At the same time, wisps of golden flame dissipated.
"DING! You have killed one Basic Level Yin Beast! Reward: 100 royalty points!"
Modification Points +7 (51%)
A mechanical voice sounded in his ear.
It appeared almost simultaneously with the crimson notification that his Modification Points had been credited.
Hu Qi's expression was calm.
For a being of his life form, sleep was largely meaningless.
