Although he didn’t know how Yang Jing enhanced his strength, Lin Yuan didn’t overly pry into the matter.
Everyone has their own secrets. Being overly curious about other people’s secrets can damage friendships.
Lin Yuan habitually ate a pot of dog at at Yang Jing’s stall and had a chat with him.
Then he returned to the Wushan Villa District.
This place was still the sa, but it was where Lin Yuan’s dream began.
Wen Yingying and Day Traveler could no longer keep up with Lin Yuan’s pace. They usually stayed here, hoping Lin Yuan would return for so ti.
Seeing Lin Yuan co back, Wen Yingying and Day Traveler were overjoyed and helped him empty the fish roe lucky bag overnight.

Each leading their team, ng Zhang, Jian Bing, Zhi Ming, and Ling Guang arrived within the borders of Ah San Country.
Before the mysterious invasion, Ah San Country was also a populous nation.
Now, it’s a barren wasteland.
In this desolate wilderness, Gourmands could occasionally be seen wandering.
As for humans and those demon fiends, they were basically unseen, seemingly devoured by the Gourmands.
Even if occasionally there’s soone lucky enough to survive until now, they would definitely be hiding in so obscure corner, not revealing themselves.
Indeed, even those demon fiends invading from the Mysterious World must avoid the Gourmands’ edge.
ng Zhang’s team was responsible for the east of Ah San Country.
Jian Bing’s team was responsible for the west.
Ling Guang’s team was responsible for the south.
Zhi Ming’s team was responsible for the north.
Their route was planned according to ti and distance.
All mbers of the four teams must simultaneously withdraw from the territory of Ah San Country.
Because once the plague liquid in the boxes is arranged, it will emit a special scent that attracts Gourmands.
If any team fails to withdraw according to schedule from within Ah San Country, they will be involuntarily drawn into this trap plan.
Enveloped by countless Gourmands, the consequences are obvious.
Undoubtedly, they would be devoured with nothing remaining.
On the eastern side of Ah San Country, Jian Bing led the team, tentatively nad the White Tiger Squad.
Each team’s briefcase contained a total of seven plague liquids. Jian Bing’s White Tiger Squad had already placed three at designated spots.
Now, it’s ti for the fourth.
Upon reaching the approximate location to place the fourth plague liquid, Jian Bing warned, "Everyone, be careful, sothing’s off here."
Seeing Jian Bing so serious, a Life Pattern Master in the team asked, "Captain, why so cautious?"
"We’ve co all the way without encountering any dangers, haven’t we?"
Upon hearing this, Jian Bing solemnly reminded again, "It’s precisely because we’ve co all this way without encountering any dangers that I’m telling you to be cautious."
"It’s too quiet here, unnaturally so."
"Think about it. When we went to the previous three locations, we bypassed many Gourmands, but this ti we haven’t t a single one."
"What does that imply?"
Just as Jian Bing finished speaking, the Life Pattern Master tentatively responded, "There’s a more powerful Gourmand here?"
"Correct!" Jian Bing nodded, replying, "Only in a tiger’s territory will no other animals exist."
"The sa goes for Gourmands. They devour each other too."
"The fact that we haven’t encountered other Gourmands here can only an one thing: they’ve been devoured by a stronger Gourmand."
Having said this, everyone understood his point.
Thus, everyone grew more cautious.
"Boom!"
At that mont, a sound of sothing tearing through the air ca, resembling a thick whip, sweeping towards Jian Bing.
The attacker from the shadows was clever; he knew Jian Bing was the backbone of the group. Defeat him, and the others would be no threat.
Thus, he chose to ambush Jian Bing.
But Jian Bing, as the dean’s disciple, under ticulous guidance, was a Tier Four Peak.
A Tier Four Peak like Jian Bing was not easily conquered.
As the thick whip swept in, Jian Bing bent backward to dodge the attack, and a White Tiger Battle Saber appeared in her hand.
Dodging the attack, Jian Bing countered with a slash towards the thick whip.
"Dang!"
The White Tiger Battle Saber struck the thick whip, revealing its true form.
It turned out to be an elephant trunk.
When the elephant trunk was struck by Jian Bing’s saber, it made a sound like clashing tal.
The trunk, apparently hurt, swiftly retracted.
Jian Bing promptly led the team mbers to prepare for battle, eyes scanning the surroundings, ready for combat at any mont.
Their mission could only succeed, never fail.
Even if every mber perished, they had to place the seven plague liquids from the briefcase in their designated spots.
Thus, Jian Bing and the team couldn’t retreat; they must defeat whoever ambushed them.
"Who?"
"Show yourself!" Jian Bing shouted to the surroundings.
With Jian Bing’s words, the White Tiger Squad mbers saw clearly what had ambushed them.
It was a creature about three ters tall with a human body and an elephant head.
Its elephant head was white, but it had blood-red tusks and scarlet eyes.
A Gourmand!
Unquestionably, it was another Gourmand.
Gourmands didn’t have a unified form.
Humans, demons, ghosts, and monsters—everything, once infected by the Gourmand plague, gained the ability to devour everything and enhance their strength, known as Gourmands.
The Gourmands retained their original forms.
Thus, it was apparent this Gourmand was originally an Elephant Demon?
Tier Four Peak.
The aura emanating from this Elephant Demon Gourmand was undoubtedly Tier Four Peak.
The elephant demon’s scarlet eyes stared at the White Tiger Squad mbers, seemingly eager to swallow them alive.
"It’s been so long since I’ve had such good food!"
"I’m starving; finally, there’s food!" the Elephant Demon Gourmand rumbled.
However, as his scarlet gaze moved over the crowd, he was suddenly drawn to Jian Bing’s briefcase.
Unable to see through the case, he didn’t know what it contained.
Since the appointed ti hadn’t arrived, the plague liquid hadn’t begun emitting a scent that attracts Gourmands.
Yet, the Elephant Demon Gourmand sensed it regardless, realizing sothing important was inside.
