Capítulo 1677: Chapter 136: Trying My Luck
Upon hearing his cries, the fainted official woke up again.
However, upon seeing the fiery red stone in Lin Yifan’s hand, he fainted once more.
Witnessing this scene, the nearby won couldn’t help but suppress their laughter, feeling sorry for the unfortunate official. Not only did he lose his “wife,” he also lost his “soldiers,” suffering a huge loss.
With a bountiful harvest, Lin Yifan was extrely satisfied. He then led this group of holess won away from the outskirts of the small town.
After these soldiers return, they will surely report the incident and send people to arrest them. By then, not only would cultivators from the Superior Immortal Fifth Realm co, but also strong beings from the High Immortal Realm might arrive. Therefore, if not leaving now, then when?
The group of won also realized this point. Offending governnt officials from Linwei Country, staying in Linwei Country would be difficult.
However, in the vast world, where should they go? They inquired, “Hero! What should we do now? Where should we go?”
“You could either hide in the mountains or leave Linwei Country. But I think, wherever you go, there will be such oppressive officials, so I’ll take you to hide in the mountains,” Lin Yifan replied.
“But…”
“Don’t be afraid. I’ll find a place with good mountains and water and set up an array to protect you from bandits with lower realms.”
Lin Yifan understood what these won were worried about. However, he had already devised a comprehensive plan, so he wouldn’t let them relive a life of harm.
“What is an array?”
“An array is a barrier that can protect all of you. When there’s an enemy invasion, they will be blocked outside and cannot enter,” Lin Yifan explained.
“That sounds magical?”
“The world is vast and full of wonders, right?”
“Will this be very hard for you?”
“Don’t worry about ; it’s not a big deal to .”
“Alright, we’ll follow the hero’s arrangents.”
This group of holess won could now only rely on Lin Yifan. They didn’t have any abilities to do anything and could only entrust Lin Yifan with their lives.
…
Soon, a large group of soldiers erged from the small town.
These soldiers were naturally sent to chase and kill Lin Yifan and his group because attacking governnt officials and soldiers, disregarding the law, is a major cri.
Among these pursuing soldiers were High Immortal Realm powerhouses. If Lin Yifan had left a mont too late, he might have been captured.
Lin Yifan took a mountain path instead of the main road, making it difficult for these soldiers to catch them, as long as they hid well.
“Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!”
Shadows continuously flew overhead. The group of won on the road was terrified, worried about being discovered by Linwei Country’s soldiers.
Lin Yifan cald them, then found a secluded place to hide.
With no trace and no breath, the pursuing soldiers aimlessly searched for the young man who had attacked the official and the group of won involved in illegal activities.
Searching within dozens of miles for a long ti, they found nothing, not knowing where the group had gone.
Looking around aimlessly, helplessly, they could only retreat and stop the pursuit.
The man who attacked the official was a cultivator. He might have used his Qinggong to move the won, and several hours had passed since the incident; in several hours, many things could be done. Searching for them in the vast world would be very difficult.
On the other side, avoiding the soldiers’ pursuit from the town, Lin Yifan and the group of won continued their journey.
Days later, they finally found a place with good mountains and water.
Lin Yifan decided to build hos for the group of won and establish a simple settlent here.
With his strong martial arts, building hos would not be much trouble.
A few days later, a simple settlent appeared in this place.
The help Lin Yifan could provide was limited, so after providing basic shelter for the won, he began to set up the defense formation.
Setting up such a large defense formation required a lot of Spiritual Pearls, but fortunately, he had been constantly training in the forest during this ti, collecting plenty of Spiritual Pearls, so he wasn’t worried about running out.
After two days, the gigantic Superior Immortal Fifth Level defense formation took shape.
This was the best large defense formation he could currently create. If a High Immortal Realm powerhouse were to invade, he would be powerless, so he wished this group of won would live peacefully here.
After completing the construction of the dwelling and the array, he went to the city to buy so daily necessities, providing this group of won with a place to live and enjoy their lives.
Arriving at the small town, walking through the bustling area, Lin Yifan bought various items like blankets and tableware.
After finishing the shopping, he went to other streets to purchase more daily necessities.
While walking, he suddenly discovered a very lively place.
The crowd flow here was obviously much higher than in other streets.
Curious about what was being sold on this street, Lin Yifan approached to check it out.
When he discovered that the street was filled with stores for stone gambling, he was astonished.
He hadn’t expected the stone gambling industry to be so booming locally; it seed many wanted to get rich overnight.
With the stone gambling experience from a few days ago, he thought maybe he could try his luck here. So, he stepped into the street and began to gamble.
“Co on! Co on! Passersby, don’t miss out! The thousand-year-old mystical stone is hidden in this shop. Quickly, co and see!”
“Every day there’s talk of thousand-year-old mystical stones. How many have actually been found?”
A pedestrian sneered because they had listened to the shop owner’s lies and suffered great losses, hence they no longer believed in the shopkeeper’s words.
Of course, this showed that these pedestrians were likely locals; otherwise, they wouldn’t have recognized the shop owner’s tricks.
“Guest, you can’t talk like that. In our shop, there have been treasures worth millions, over a hundred pieces. You might doubt there’s a thousand-year-old mystical stone among them, but you can’t deny that there are good items among these stones,” the shop owner retorted.
“Alright, alright! You say there’s a thousand-year-old mystical stone in your shop. Which stone do you think is most likely the mystical stone?” a passerby inquired.
They too wanted to try their luck; otherwise, they wouldn’t have co to this street. With good recomndations, they would naturally stay to watch.
“I think this stone with a bit of red in the soil is pretty good,” the shop owner pointed out a stone.
Lin Yifan examined it closely and noticed the red part of the stone was rely red quartz, not a treasure. If soone was an expert, they generally wouldn’t be fooled.
Indeed, the group of pedestrians quickly saw through it and countered, “Trying to trick us into buying useless stones again? We won’t believe you anymore. Let’s go!”
