Lin Zheyu sat on the side, listening to them recount the events, and finally felt relieved.
...
In the blink of an eye, two days passed.
There were many skirmishes among the three major factions, and Jia Yanrong sustained so injuries, but they were only minor.
For two consecutive days, Lin Zheyu did not go out.
In matters of the Feihong Gang, Zhenbin acted as the deputy, so Lin Zheyu rarely needed to show up.
Every day, apart from practicing martial arts and studying the Poison Canon, he would eat voraciously.
With his physical enhancent, his digestion capacity also improved. With frequent and heavy als every day, his Qi Blood power recovered extrely quickly.
In just two days, he had restored about 80% of his Qi Blood strength.
On the third morning.
Lin Zheyu got up early.
After practicing martial arts for half an hour, he took his sword and left the city.
Outside the city was extrely desolate, and the ordinary people living outside the city had mostly fled.
When the rebel army attacked, the most unfortunate were these civilians outside the city walls, without protection.
A large part of the refugees consisted of these people, and less than thirty percent were those inside the city who fled with the masses and those unluckily caught in the calamity.
Lin Zheyu’s predecessor was one of the unlucky ones.
Passing by the Ma Family Manor, Lin Zheyu found that it was also deserted and had beco a ghost village.
On the way, he discovered a military force of about three thousand people moving towards Guanning City.
The army’s killing aura was intense, far surpassing that of Mr. Han’s city guard army.
Entering the mountain forest, Lin Zheyu did not delay much and headed directly toward Lion Valley.
Along the way, he found significantly fewer bandits in the mountain forest, unsure if they fled upon seeing the rebel army about to attack, or for so other reason.
Rustle, rustle, rustle.
A gentle breeze blew, stirring the mist in the mountain forest.
Outside Lion Valley, poisonous miasma fog lingered perennially.
Lin Zheyu stopped outside Lion Valley, looked at the entrance, and noticed nurous figures.
The number of lookouts had increased.
Lion Valley is surrounded by mountains, with few entrances into the valley, all extrely concealed. Lin Zheyu knew only this entrance, discovered during his previous outing with bandits.
"With the lesson from last ti, it’s much harder to sneak in this ti," Lin Zheyu murmured to himself.
He didn’t use knockout powder to sneak in as he did last ti.
There are many lookout posts at the entrance, and using knockout powder would quickly be discovered.
Lin Zheyu lightly touched the tip of his toes, jumped onto the treetop, and guarded the outside, first understanding the frequency and number of shifts the lookouts have.
He did not beco complacent due to his increased strength.
The Nine Nether Sect seems to be allied with the rebel army, and it’s hard to say if there are only those dozen Qi Blood Realm Martial Artists in Lion Valley.
Lin Zheyu only saw seventeen figures in black and red robes, but there might be other powerful warriors in the shrine.
Today’s visit was just for reconnaissance.
He would strike when he finds an opportunity; if not, he would continue to wait patiently to find a chance.
The Nine Nether Sect mbers are like fat sheep, worth spending more effort on.
Last ti, a figure in a black and red robe brought him an inco of several thousand silver.
Besides cultivation techniques and Blood Elixirs, there was also a bottle of unknown elixir, the price presumably hefty.
That bottle of elixir contained a total of four pills, slling richly fragrant.
Lin Zheyu speculated that these pills might be similar to the Blood-Nourishing and Bone-Strengthening Soup, a powerful elixir used for cultivation and enhancing strength.
From the elixir, he slled several familiar dicinal scents, all of which are major restorative herbs.
However, he was rely guessing and dared not use them indiscriminately.
Even if they were really for cultivation and enhancing strength, Lin Zheyu did not plan to use them.
Elixirs that can enhance strength might be more profitable if sold for silver taels rather than directly used.
