Lu Yun and Xiao Chen each picked up an old, yellowing book and flipped through.
In Lu Yun’s hands was a martial arts manual on saber techniques, named Black Tiger Saber Technique, a top-tier technique.
The one in Xiao Chen’s hands was a sword technique, named Blinking Sword Technique, also a top-tier martial art.
As Lu Yun used sabers and Xiao Chen practiced swords, these techniques were tailor-made for them.
“How should we deal with these two chests of silver and gold jewelry?” After putting away the Black Tiger Saber Technique, Lu Yun asked, somewhat troubled.
Each chest weighed at least a hundred pounds, so would they carry one each, swaggering all the way back?
That, of course, was impossible.
“This is simple.”
As soon as the words fell, Xiao Chen summoned a small, yellow cloth bag that seemed to have a self-contained space. In a flash, he stored the two large chests on the ground inside it.
Lu Yun naturally knew that the small cloth bag was a Sumi Bag, though he hadn’t used one himself.
A Sumi Bag, although only the size of a palm, contained a cubic meter of space within.
The space, though small, was practical. The price was also high, costing at least tens of thousands of taels of silver for one.
Lu Yun had seen one at the Martial Academy when he was exchanging for weapons, but the three hundred Contribution Points required had made him give up the idea of getting one.
The Weapon Tower in the Martial Academy’s Internal Affairs Hall had not only Sumi Bags but also Sumi Rings.
The space inside a Sumi Bag was always the same, only one cubic meter.
Sumi Rings were different; the sizes of their spaces varied, but even the smallest Sumi Ring had ten cubic meters of space.
The rings in the Internal Affairs Hall Weapons Tower came in three sizes, with spaces of ten, fifty, and a hundred cubic meters.
Since even a Sumi Bag was out of his league, Lu Yun didn’t bother to ask about the price of the rings.
“A Sumi Bag is quite useful; it’s worth having one. After all, when we go out, we can’t carry everything ourselves,” Xiao Chen said casually as he tied the Sumi Bag to his waist.
“The Sumi Bag is too small and inconvenient. 1 was just considering when I should get a larger Sumi Ring.”
Xiao Chen gave Lu Yun a strange look and continued, “After we deal with this and return to the Martial Academy, we’ll divide it up then.”
“Alright.”
Soon, the two left the secret chamber.
As they went outside, they saw Captain Wang, who was just returning.
Captain Wang had a thin layer of sweat on his forehead, and his breathing was a bit hurried. After taking a deep breath, he slowly said, “That guy was too fast and knew the terrain of Black Tiger Village very well. I couldn’t catch up to him.”
Xiao Chen didn’t mind, but Lu Yun casually asked, “Who was the one who got away?”
“Wu Sheng, the military advisor of Black Tiger Village. He was ranked No. 2, right behind the Village Chief,” Captain Wang replied.
“Wu Sheng? It’s a shame it wasn’t Wu Yong.”
Lu Yun’s comment left Captain Wang feeling puzzled, but he didn’t explain. Instead, he lit a torch and threw it into the house.
Soon, flames burst out from the house and spread to the nearby buildings.
Watching as the fire grew larger and engulfed Black Tiger Village in a blaze, Lu Yun said indifferently, “From now on, Black Tiger Village is reduced to ashes. Next stop, Black Wolf Gang!”
On the way, Captain Wang briefed Lu Yun and Xiao Chen on the situation and details of the Black Wolf Gang.
The reason why the Black Wolf Gang was named as such was because its leader possessed a Black Wolf Demon Beast with a Second Rank peak-level cultivation.
Also, because of this Demon Beast, the Black Wolf Gang was able to survive the cleanup of Green Cloud County and settle in the Green Cloud Mountain Range.
With a Second Rank peak-level Demon Beast as its leader, the Black Wolf Gang’s stronghold was deeper into the Green Cloud Mountain Range compared to Black Tiger Village.
As the three of them continued advancing, Lu Yun became more and more uneasy.
This was because they were getting closer and closer to the inner circle of the Green Cloud Mountain Range, where the possibility of encountering Demon Beasts would become greater and greater.
However, what was strange was that they had not encountered any Demon Beasts on their way, nor had they seen any small animals like hares.
All these abnormalities made the trio even more cautious. Lu Yun even took off the Tiger-Head Broadsaber from his back and held it in his hand.
As long as danger appeared, he would immediately activate his aggressive aura, infusing it into the blade, and slash out with the legendary blade aura.
Not to mention, this Tiger-Head Broadsaber had a pretty good grade. It could easily withstand all of Lu Yun’s aggressive aura, and with the support of the aggressive aura, it could even slash out flying blade auras.
“Huh?” Suddenly, Lu Yun’s eyes focused on some bloodstains on the weeds not far away and the bushes nearby, which were very messy.
“These must be traces left behind by Demon Beasts and other large animals when they were hunting. However, we are not far from the Black Wolf Gang’s base, so there shouldn’t be any activities of other Demon Beasts or large animals here.” Captain Wang said, puzzled.
His words also cast a shadow over Lu Yun and Xiao Chen’s hearts.
The trio continued moving forward, and along the way, they saw many bloodstains and even some fragments of small animals’ limbs, which were shocking to see.
“Are those… footprints?” Xiao Chen’s eyes were suddenly drawn to some marks beside a dead deer.
Lu Yun also turned his gaze to the footprints. The gigantic size of the footprints sent shivers down his spine.
The prints were half a foot deep and two feet wide. If they were indeed footprints, they were terrifying.
What kind of beast could leave such massive prints, and how large and powerful must it be?
“Could it be that a Demon Beast from deep within the Green Cloud Mountain Range has come out?”
Captain Wang’s face paled at the sight of the enormous footprints.
“If it was really a beast that has come out from the inside, there might be danger if we continue.”/p>
Xiao Chen said indifferently, “Captain Wang, if you’re afraid, you can go back first. Junior Brother Lu and 1 will continue.”<>
“Haha, that’s not necessary. Besides, we’re almost there. The chances of us encountering a Demon Beast should be slim.”
Just then, Lu Yun suddenly pointed ahead and said, “Captain Wang, look over there. There are quite a few buildings. Is that the Black Wolf Gang’s base?”
Captain Wang hurriedly looked in the direction Lu Yun was pointing and soon broke into a smile.
“Yes, that’s the Black Wolf Gang’s base.”
With Captain Wang’s confirmation, both Lu Yun and Xiao Chen smiled and sighed with relief.
Going deeper into the Green Cloud Mountain Range would also be dangerous for them.
Half an hour later, they finally arrived at a large gate. Inside were clusters of wooden buildings, which, judging by the size, could accommodate at least two to three hundred people.
However, to their surprise, there was no defence around the entire base, and it was incredibly quiet.
So quiet that it sent chills down their spines.
“Such a strong smell of blood!” Xiao Chen frowned.
As the breeze blew, Lu Yun also detected the strong, pungent smell of blood that Xiao Chen had mentioned.
“Roar!”
At that moment, a beastly roar came from behind the gate, causing the somewhat dilapidated door to creak and the surrounding trees to tremble noisily..
