“The Unwavering Merchant.” “I have heard of the name and his notable actions,” Yuan Cai declared, addressing his men as well as the young man who was still beyond the eastern wall.Speaking in front of his subordinates’ anxious gazes, Yuan Cai did not let his voice falter.

Their eyes were sharp, their stances poised with vigilance, ready to strike Li Wuji at the slightest provocation.‘It’s only natural that they show such hostility to a stranger such as myself.’ Li Wuji understood the thoughts of the two men that were observing him with attentive gazes. ‘A shame their cultivation levels are still substandard, it won’t be a challenge breaking free from this encirclement….”Li Wuji felt a mix of conical humor and relief as he stood under the watchful eyes of the guards.

The following morning, as the gentle rays of dawn illuminated the surroundings, Li Wuji remained quietly nestled in his tent. The events of the previous night lingered in his thoughts, mingling with the expectation of what lay ahead. He needed this moment of solitude to gather his strength and prepare for the challenges that awaited him.‘My wounds are healing up nicely.’ Li Wuji casually felt the clean bandages that were wrapped around his wounds with a light smile on his face. However, the tranquility of the morning was abruptly shattered by a piercing scream that tore through the air. It was a sound that sent shivers down Li Wuji's spine, a scream he recognized all too well. The familiar sound was of a warrior that was in a great deal of discomfort. ‘Anything that can cause a grown man to scream out in such a way, cannot mean the journey will be as smooth as I previously thought.’ Li Wuji could only sigh at the thought of his plans being derailed once again. Li Wuji's eyelids sl

After the disturbances in the camp subsided, Li Wuji was sitting quietly outside his tent, savoring some recently received warm broth. He was thinking about his goals for the future and a variety of other things."It's inappropriate that the beast has eluded my grasp thus far; however, I still have the opportunity to obtain the beast core that's still inside the body of that beast." With a simple expression on his face, Li Wuji submerged himself in the warm, juicy chunks of beef that bobbed in the soup. It was difficult to imagine what was going through his mind from the outside.Li Wuji had only been out of the Black Temple for a few days, having humiliatingly defeated Master Wei, the prison's overseer. To his dismay, he was unable to collect his reward, even though he was able to kill the white wolf with the beast core inside during that time."Brother Yang."
