Lu Zheng sat in a cautious position, ready to escape and run away. At the same time, he was scrutinizing the beautiful girl.The beautiful girl possessed an unnatural beauty, enough to rage every man with her lust. He would not be surprised if the elder in front of her was her relative.If not… he would not be surprised she would still be a virgin.However, the way her aura exuded, she was definitely the epitome of purity, innocence, and also…“Stop staring at me with those eyes, you peasant!”Arrogance.Nevertheless, Lu Zheng was not able to retort her words. Her dress seemed to already convey it could not be found at any parts of the White Tiger Territory.Hell, it might only be found in the Central Plain.After all, Lu Zheng noticed that her dress, revealing some part of her skin aside from her limbs, was not tainted by the soil even when it rested on the ground.It was untouchable, like her…Lu Zheng narrowed his eyes. He said in his mind, “Ravyn, they might come from the Central

“I-I…” Lu Zheng was lost for words.Xia was now standing in front of him and, without hesitation, she raised her fist. Lu Zheng blocked his face with his arms, raising it, but when Xia’s fist collided with his arms, it was instantly broken.Lu Zheng spat out blood. He was deeply startled by Xia’s violent punch. However, Xia’s punch did not stop there.After breaking Lu Zheng’s arms, her fist pushed through, punching his jaws, breaking it.Lu Zheng instantly felt unconscious.Before he lost consciousness, Ravyn’s voice echoed inside his head.“There it is. She begins this early, huh?”…Xia cooled down after a minute of staring at Lu Zheng’s lifeless body. She breathed heavily.After all, her emotion clouded her mind—she was completely enraged.Elder Ming’s voice echoed behind her.“If you don’t heal him now, he might die at any second.”Xia was surprised. She stared at Lu Zheng and grinned.She mumbled. “Yeah, killing him early might be too merciful of me. He has to suffer more than

However, Lu Zheng could not complain. Simply because he was also minding his own business—thinking how to survive for the next three months.He grabbed the chance to communicate with Ravyn.“Ravyn, do you think killing beasts will grant me rewards from the system?”Ravyn immediately replied, “Of course, doofus. Why won’t you think that way? Can't the beasts in this world be as powerful as cultivators? As long as they have qi and the system can absorb their soul to assimilate their physical prowess and enhance yours, then it’ll be possible.”“Absorb their soul?” Lu Zheng was taken aback.Ravyn chuckled. “It’s still a theory yet, but the most logical one. Why else would the system only grant you power after killing them without you noticing how? Hence, I speculated they consumed souls. Hopefully, only a part of it, leaving the enemies’ main soul to reincarnate.”“Hopefully not,” said Lu Zheng in his mind in a dead serious tone.“...”Ravyn did not say anything and Lu Zheng continued, “T

“Damn it! At this point, it won’t be long before the wild rabbit crushes the mountain. By then, it will be my turn!” Lu Zheng complained in his mind.He could hear Ravyn laughing to his heart’s content, frustrating him more.Thankfully, his internal technique, Ocean’s Heart Qi technique, helped him calm down and analyzed his situation rationally.The mountain forest was massive, before it even reached the foot, it was connected to another mountain. It appeared he was in a mountain range.“Wait, does that mean I’m near the Stoneroot Hold?”However, the wild rabbit did not give him time to ponder. After all, a rather heavy shake and loud noise echoed behind him. He took a peek and his heart almost leapt out of his chest.The wild rabbit finally utilized its common skill. Jumping!Seeing such a massive creature jumping, Lu Zheng even rubbed his eyes, almost seeing the wild rabbit reach the moon. As much as he wanted to admire the view in the sky, the wild rabbit covered the moon above

Lu Zheng ran for a quarter to an hour, leaving him only a quarter left before dawn finally rose. He was able to increase his agility and speed attributes points for another five points, in total, increasing his chances of survival.Even then, the wild rabbit became desperate. It has also become cunning, narrowing his escape path. If it was not for Lu Zheng adjusting rapidly, using his wit and skills, he would not have been able to survive this long.Throughout the span of time, Ravyn remained quiet. Lu Zheng was able to focus, as a result.Suddenly, as soon as Lu Zheng escaped from its attack once again, it roared at the top of its lungs. Lu Zheng did not bother turning around, knowing it would repeat its attack pattern once again.That was until he noticed something strange.It was eerily quiet behind him. The wind became less intense, it became even colder, and the ground would not tremble for more than a second anymore.A chill ran down his spine as he turned around. The wild ra
