Cultivation System: Stronger with Age Chapter 1409 - 615: The Frightening Man in Black

But how could Miao Wan’er know,

that she and Ma Nanfeng would go to such lengths, even willing to spend their entire family’s fortune to curry favor and get close to "Sima Dongming," who actually follows Lin Xuankong’s every word...

Even the various Rare Jade they want to help Huang Yun’Er collect are merely what Lin Xuankong and Li Changming need!

Of course, even if Miao Wan’er didn’t truly respect Lin Xuankong from the bottom of her heart, she still handled situations with some finesse and didn’t show any sign of belittling Lin Xuankong, a testament to her upbringing as a lady from a prominent family, different from those extremely vulgar, blindly arrogant brats! Moreover, Miao Wan’er’s father indeed showed kindness and loyalty in his care and concern for ’Lin Qiang,’ a down-and-out person, which was truly moving!

Even though Lin Xuankong replaced Lin Qiang’s soul, he had to admit that people with feelings and loyalty like Miao Yun Lake are rare, especially in such chaotic times. The only flaw of Miao Yun Lake is probably being a bit henpecked...

After watching Miao Wan’er leave, Lin Xuankong picked up the pistol on the table, casually fiddled with it, and thought to himself:

If I had this pistol yesterday, it could have provided me some extra safety when going out. Now that I have advanced to the Early Stage of the Second Layer of Transcendence, a stone I throw with full force is close to the power of a pistol bullet! Only the rifle or machine gun bullets in this Absolute Spirit Mini World could exceed the stones I throw with full force over the Second Layer of Transcendence!

However, weapons like sniper rifles, grenades, and cannons still have power far beyond my reach!

Moreover, because the defensive capabilities of the Early Stage of the Second Layer of Transcendence through True Qi arranged on the body surface aren’t strong yet, if a pistol bullet directly hits the head or a vital point, it could still be life-threatening!

Thinking about this, Lin Xuankong casually tucked the pistol into his chest, returned to the bedroom, and continued his cultivation.

...

The next day, around noon,

on a rather wide road near Qingshui River, over twenty poorly dressed men were driving roughly two thousand sheep toward the pavilion where Lin Xuankong and Li Changming were fishing.

Following behind these shepherds are two jeeps, one of which Huang Yun’Er, with a charming appearance and wearing a military uniform, is sitting in the front passenger seat, her gaze falling on the sheep outside, a thoughtful look emerging in her eyes.

The woman driving the vehicle, also wearing a military uniform, spoke while driving: "Miss Huang, it’s just some sheep and shepherds. Just send a few people to watch them and make sure they hand them over to the gentleman from the Seven Cities Construction Hall! It’s just a trivial matter, why do you have to make a personal trip?"

Huang Yun’Er shook her head slightly and raised her long, somewhat spirited eyebrows, "If it was just to send some sheep over, I certainly wouldn’t need to personally follow. But aren’t you curious about the gentleman from the Seven Cities Construction Hall’s request?

That gentleman from the Seven Cities Construction Hall healed the highly esteemed Sima Dongming in our Great Yan Kingdom. With such a great merit, even if it required one thousand taels of gold, it would be well deserved!

Yet, this gentleman from the Seven Cities Construction Hall doesn’t want the gold and silver beloved by everyone, nor the Great Yan Kingdom’s circulating currency, but oddly requests two thousand sheep! It’s too strange, I simply can’t figure out what that gentleman from the Seven Cities Construction Hall wants so many sheep for?"

The woman driving the car paused in her expression upon hearing this, then smiled and said: "Since it’s the gentleman from the Seven Cities Construction Hall whom even Sima Dongming admires, it’s only natural for him to have a unique personality and style that differs from ordinary people! Anyway, just deliver the two thousand sheep to him, what does it matter what he does with them, he can’t possibly eat them all by himself, can he? Haha!"

Huang Yun’Er glared at the female officer beside her,

"Talking nonsense all day, how could one person possibly eat so many sheep,

besides, if the gentleman from the Seven Cities Construction Hall liked mutton, he could simply ask for a reward of a few thousand taels of silver and go buy them in Qingyuan City or elsewhere, so why trouble me to bring exactly two thousand sheep and goats?

This gentleman from the Seven Cities Construction Hall is truly mysterious. I, Huang Yun’Er, pride myself on having some insight into people, yet I can’t understand what that gentleman is planning, the more I think about it, the weirder it seems!"

The female officer driving the car chuckled again upon hearing this, saying: "Miss Huang, I’m actually a bit curious too! But curiosity aside, in half an hour after herding these sheep to the pavilion, the mystery will naturally be revealed!"

"Yes, in half an hour, the mystery will be unveiled!

I want to see what that gentleman from the Seven Cities Construction Hall plans to do with so many sheep!"

At this point, the doubt and anticipation in the eyes of this daughter of the Huang Clan became clearly more apparent! As a daughter of one of the four most powerful families in the Great Yan Kingdom, Huang Yun’Er has been well-informed since childhood, yet she has never met someone with such peculiar requests like ’Lin Xuankong’!

Just then,

the female officer suddenly let out a surprised sound, then looked slightly vigilant and said:

"Miss Huang, there’s a person dressed in black attire and wearing a mask emerging from the forest a hundred meters in front of the sheep!"
