"This is destiny..."
Deng Yuanzhi laughed heartily, clearly in a good mood.
In his youth, he had deep enmity with Huang Baizhong. Although it wasn't an irreconcilable feud, it wasn't easily resolved either.
"Shujie, there's sothing I need you to do."
Deng Yuanzhi summoned a master from within his clan and instructed: "Go to the area under General Wei's responsibility and give Lin Zheyu of the Infinite Sect a good lesson."
"Go easy on him, don't take his life. Otherwise, if Huang Baizhong makes a fuss, it could be tricky to handle."
"Just break his limbs, so he'll be bedridden for a few months, missing the Hidden Dragon List challenge."
Deng Yuanzhi said.
Back then, Huang Baizhong hurt many of his descendants, and Deng Yuanzhi wanted Huang Baizhong to taste the feeling of having his most proud disciple crippled.
"Understood."
...
Night fell.
It was spring, and at night, the temperature dropped sharply. However, to a strong person like Lin Zheyu, it made no difference.
The gentle breeze passed by, rustling the trees.
Lin Zheyu sat on a wooden stump, leisurely roasting beast at with his left hand, while holding the cooked at with his right, eating with relish.
"Mr. Lin, haven't you eaten all day? Aren't you full?"
Li Yin looked at Lin Zheyu with a strange expression, unable to resist speaking.
During the day, when she had free ti, she practiced swordsmanship nearby, while Lin Zheyu sat there roasting at, watching her practice all day.
"I'm okay."
"I have a naturally good digestive and absorptive capacity, and I've always had a big appetite. I often didn't have enough to eat at ho when I was a kid." Lin Zheyu bluffed.
Li Yin: "..."
Li Yin opened her mouth but swallowed back what she wanted to say.
This appetite couldn't be described as just big; it was like a bottomless pit, even more voracious than a beast.
However, she wasn't very familiar with Lin Zheyu, so saying such things would seem impolite.
Roar—
From the forest ca the roar of a demon puppet.
Li Yin's expression showed a hint of interest, and she suggested, "The demon puppet is active, Mr. Lin. Would you join ? It would be easier for two people to hunt the demon puppet together."
"I'm used to acting alone, I'm sorry." Lin Zheyu smiled and declined.
"Mr. Lin, you're too polite."
"Then I will go hunt the demon puppet first. See you." Li Yin smiled, turned around, and walked into the darkness, holding her longsword.
Lin Zheyu watched Li Yin disappear from sight, unmoved, and continued to sit where he was, roasting beast at.
He glanced at the half-beast left beside him and murmured, "Once I finish roasting the rest, I'll patrol near the periter."
In the days to co, he planned to spend his ti like this.
Half an hour later.
Lin Zheyu finished eating the remaining roast and slowly stood up.
After a day of eating roast at, it was ti to move around and digest.
He touched his still flat stomach, marveling at his own digestive ability, which was truly extraordinary.
After eating roast at all day, he didn't feel a bit full.
"When I beco stronger, I'll catch a Grandmaster-level beast to roast and taste how Grandmaster-level beast at is."
Lin Zheyu muttered.
The stronger the beast, the more satiating it was, and the more energy it provided.
Unfortunately, this forest was regularly swept by strong individuals from Great Wei, making it rare to see a beast above the Transforming Force level, let alone a Grandmaster-level one.
So far, the strongest Lin Zheyu had encountered was just a Bone Marrow Refining Realm beast.
Ti passed by slowly.
Two days went by in the blink of an eye.
Lin Zheyu didn't have to perform tasks daily; he rotated every two days, allowing two days of rest each ti.
In those two days, he only hunted one demon puppet at the Bone Marrow Refining Realm, and the forces behind the Blood Lotus hadn't shown up, which reassured him.
"Miss Li, see you in two days."
Lin Zheyu smiled as he bade farewell to Li Yin.
"See you in two days."
Li Yin nodded in response.
Watching Lin Zheyu's departing figure, her expression was peculiar.
"Are all peerless geniuses so eccentric in nature?" Li Yin couldn't help but mutter.
In the two days, what she saw most was Lin Zheyu sitting on a stump, grilling the beasts he hunted.
He didn't seem too keen on hunting demon puppets.
Li Yin couldn't understand how soone with such a nature cultivated the Tyrannical True Intent.
"Perhaps this is the biggest difference between peerless geniuses and ordinary people like ." Li Yin shook her head and said with a light smile.
Not just Li Yin had this thought.
Hiding in the dark, Deng Shu Jie, who was watching Lin Zheyu, had the sa thought.
"Damn, how did soone like this cultivate the Tyrannical True Intent and even rank 24th on the Hidden Dragon List?"
Deng Shu Jie watched Lin Zheyu's departing figure, feeling rather speechless.
He had been watching in secret for a while, planning to act when Lin Zheyu hunted demon puppets and moved away from the periter of the city guard, but he hadn't found an opportunity.
This left him quite speechless.
"Never mind, I'll take so risks and choose a more secluded place to act." Deng Shu Jie thought to himself.
His figure vanished in an instant, quietly following him.
Lin Zheyu greeted General Wei but didn't rush back to the Sect.
Splash—
Under the bright moonlight, the river shimred with silver ripples.
Lin Zheyu stood by the river, the cold wind blowing across his face, bringing a slight chill.
"Is that guy still not going to make a move?"
"If he doesn't act soon, I will strike first."
Lin Zheyu glanced sideways behind him, muttering softly.
He ca here intending to lure out the person watching him in the dark.
