"The stronger the desire, the stronger the beast, but how strong it will beco... I do not know."
Li Yuan revealed a look of reminiscence upon hearing this, and said: "Sister Yan, do you rember when I ran back from the mountains?
At that ti, I felt my mories slipping away rapidly... so this is it.
This Ashoka Tree is exactly a manifestation of the shop’s characteristics in this regard."
"Hmm, sooner or later, I’ll swallow this shop up." Lady Yan said these imposing words in a calm tone.
Li Yuan held his icy wife.
He himself was like a raging fire, which happened to be quite comfortable.
Suddenly, his expression shifted slightly, and he said, "Could the Lotus Sect’s plan be just this? Absorbing mories on a large scale, creating beasts on a large scale, to fight for them."
Lady Yan shook her head: "I don’t know much about personnel matters, but there are still many problems that need to be resolved."
The couple chatted...
After a while, Li Yuan yawned and slowly fell asleep, while Lady Yan pretended to be asleep.
...
The next day.
Noon.
Lady Yan carefully finished applying the Yin Makeup for Li Yuan.
Li Yuan once again arrived at Shanbao County.
Although he felt sowhat sorry for Yu Chaoyin, he really had no other choice.
And the other party had obviously set a trap around Yu Chaoyin, hoping to lure the target to Yu Chaoyin, so there was little guard around this residence.
After a careful investigation, Li Yuan left the residence easily and strolled leisurely on the street.
Because at this ti the sun was high, everyone’s shadows were cast at their feet, so no one could see each other.
Li Yuan was worried that once he stepped out, everyone else’s shadows would be abnormal, but his would be normal, so he specifically chose this ti.
He headed north, towards the Martial House.
Not long after leaving that house, his [Copper Pendant] stopped heating up, giving an apparent sense of "crisis resolved."
And it seed that this crisis was related to the "trap around Yu Chaoyin."
If he sought rit recklessly and accidentally took a step inside just now, he might have been in a fierce battle by now, throwing out various trump cards like mad.
Along the way, the atmosphere on this street was as bustling as Shanbao County had been before, only the topics of conversation had changed.
Previously, they would at most talk about the Ghost Realm, the Blood Saber Sect, or harvests and deficits, but now it had turned to "shadows."
Li Yuan walked along, listening, while observing the clothing of the people around, so that next ti his wife could make his attire more grounded.
Within a few miles, various broken words, however slight, could be clearly transmitted to his ears.
"Old partner, stop being stubborn, go and accept the washing ceremony of the Lotus Sect. Once you accept it, all taxes can be waived, and you can even receive relief grain every month."
"Foolish! Foolish! Look at you, your shadow has turned into a sheep!"
"I can’t see that, perhaps you were mistaken?"
"Whether I am mistaken or not, let everyone judge.
The Lotus Sect is harmful, why can’t you believe it!"
"I do believe, in fact, I had people look at it, so say they see my shadow as a sheep, so don’t see it, those who can’t see it are like , with a problem with the shadow.
But isn’t there no choice?
And besides, what’s wrong with the shadow turning into a sheep? The Immortal from the Lotus Sect said that this is just the washing cleansing the sins from our hearts, there won’t be any issues."
Li Yuan walked by and heard an old couple quarreling.
He felt slightly relieved in his heart.
It seed this county was still the county, not everyone had been affected, only those who accepted the washing ceremony would be affected.
As for this "washing ceremony," it was very likely the Lotus Sect performing experints.
However, given the style of the Lotus Sect, if they were exposing themselves, this experint was likely at its final stage.
Li Yuan continued north, walking at a normal person’s pace, and arrived near the North Gate after half a day.
Exiting the North Gate, walking half a day’s journey northeast would lead to the Martial House by Silver Creek.
However, the control at the North Gate seed very strict, and Li Yuan did not plan to force his way through.
He was extrely familiar with the geographical environnt of Shanbao County, naturally aware that there was a second route to exit the city.
So, he turned ahead of ti towards the direction of the Little Ink Workshop.
The mountain pass to the northeast of the Little Ink Workshop led outside, it’s a complex terrain, hard to defend against, even if it’s guarded, it holds little significance, this was the path he took when he killed General Qing Xiang before.
