"What, you just let him go?"

Mu Xin roared angrily, while Xun Yi drank tea leisurely.

"Don't you know this is letting the tiger go back to the mountain? If he turns into a weirdo, how many people will die at his hands?"

With that said, Mu Xin was about to leave, probably hoping to kill Gu Xing while he wasn't far away.

But Xun Yi stopped him.

"Don't worry, even if it becomes completely strange, it will take time."

"He only builds a foundation, how long can he hold on?"

"One month? Or two months?"

"I gave him a jade pendant. Even if his strength has not improved, with that jade pendant, he can persist for at least half a year."

"Jade pendant? That useless jade pendant that was passed down from your ancestors?" Mu Xin looked at him strangely.

"What do you mean it's useless? At least if you wear it on your body, you can sleep soundly every day." Xun Yi was dissatisfied.

At this time, Mu Xin's expression became even more strange. He looked at Xun Yi carefully several times from top to bottom, and only after seeing Xun Yi couldn't help but put down the tea cup in his hand, he said.

"Is he your illegitimate son?"

"Pfft!" A mouthful of tea spurted out.

A barrier appeared in front of Mu Xin, blocking the tea. Then he touched his chin and analyzed it.

"No wonder you protect him so much and even gave him the ancestral jade pendant that you have worn for hundreds of years. He doesn't look like your disciple, so he can only be your illegitimate son."

"Tsk, tsk, you don't want so many women who admired you when you were young, but you are disrespectful when you are old..."

"Get lost!" Xun Yi said with a dark face.

……

Mu Xin still didn't go looking for Gu Xing after all.

Gu Xing, on the other hand, was sitting in the carriage, running all the way out of the city.

At this time, he was wearing a Taoist robe, which covered the black lines on his shoulders.

But if you look carefully, you can still see his mysterious identity through the black lines in his eyes.

In addition, he also used one of the concealment charms given by the old man.

The degree of strangeness on his body is still very weak, and there is very little strange aura. If Mu Xin were not too strong, ordinary people would not be able to detect it.

And by using the concealment talisman, unless Mu Xin came to him, it would be difficult to detect the strange aura on his body.

This was something the old man specifically told him.

At this time, the city was under martial law and there were swaying vines everywhere. Otherwise, I might have been discovered by Mu Xin as soon as I left the house.

In the city, after a thorough sweep, not much was left, so Gu Xing went smoothly without much obstruction.

The only ones who have some trouble are the people who drive away evil spirits.

Although there are not many of them left, they still perform their duties.

When he saw a carriage speeding through the empty city, he naturally stopped him.

Fortunately, after several days of night patrol missions, most of the people who drove away the ghosts had some impressions of Gu Xing.

So, he made up some random lies and they didn't stop him.

Gu Xing was about to leave, but at this moment, he suddenly thought of Lao Hu and asked.

"Brother Hu, are you okay?"

The person in front of him suddenly fell silent, so Gu Xing also knew the answer, and felt a sense of sadness in his heart.

After saying goodbye, we headed south.

After exiting the south gate, Gu Xing looked around and saw that the situation in the outer city was not bad.

Neither Xinyue nor Yu Ruyun seemed to pay much attention to the outer city.

After all, the outer city is vast and sparsely populated. Apart from fields and forests, there are not many people visible along the way. There are only a few farmers who are not aware of the situation and are working in the fields.

Others who saw the city wall being destroyed were so frightened that they hid in their houses.

Weiwei didn't even have time to run to the outer city before Mu Xin eliminated them one by one.

There may be fish that slip through the net, but the outer city is too big to cause too many killings at one time.

But, with so many people dying in the inner city now, what will happen to these people in the future?

After all, although they can obtain food through work, other items require food in exchange.

But now that everyone is gone, who can provide them with other survival supplies?

Gu Xing didn't know and didn't bother to think about it. He just headed south.

According to the old man, the Hanging Valley is in the south. As long as he keeps going south and leaves Dazhou, one day he will be able to see a valley suspended in the air during the day.

The Hanging Valley will float in the sky during the day and fall to the ground at sunset.

Gu Xing was naturally curious about such a magical place.

Unfortunately, the road was far away, so Gu Xing could only walk slowly.

Sitting in the carriage, Gu Xing ate food.

These foods have been prepared in storage bags for a long time. They are not much, but they can be used in emergencies.

As the food entered his stomach, it was immediately digested, and then turned into wisps of true energy during the operation of the technique to make up for his dry body.

He doesn't know what the old man did to him, but his physical condition is much better now than before.

Although there are still injuries, they are not serious and are slowly improving.

Only the true energy is still dry.

Except for some precious elixirs, this stuff is difficult to replenish.

You can only rely on taking food or cultivation resources to slowly absorb and transform it.

After all, the path of spiritual practice in this world is to seek within. There is no true energy in the air, so it cannot be breathed in or absorbed.

This is quite troublesome.

Gu Xing had prepared corresponding elixirs before, but unfortunately, they had been used up while fighting against the erosion of the beholder.

The old man seemed to have stayed in the Taoist temple for a long time and had no corresponding needs, so the elixirs given to Gu Xing did not have similar items, but were more medicines for injuries.

In fact, Gu Xing can also quickly replenish his energy through the secret book.

But now in the secret book, there is only the gray mist obtained after killing the carnivorous sheep.

But the meat-eating sheep are evil-level, and with Gu Xing's body now full of scars, if he absorbs it, he might burst again.

Therefore, he slowly recovered his energy by eating.

In addition to these, Gu Xing also made other discoveries, which were his foundation objects.

Due to the special main material of the foundation building object, he also successfully obtained an ability.

This ability seems to come from the human-faced locust, named Gluttony.

After some experience, Gu Xing discovered that this ability allowed him to swallow everything and absorb energy from it to strengthen himself.

This ability may sound ordinary, but if you think about it carefully, you will find out how powerful this ability is.

Because this ability seems to have no upper limit, as long as you keep eating, you can continue to strengthen your body.

Moreover, the fact that it devours all things is exaggerated enough.

Unfortunately, the speed of strengthening through devouring seems to be a bit slow.

Gu Xing tried several kinds of food, but he only felt a weak strengthening.

But he was not in a hurry, nor did he deliberately devour all things.

After all, the taste of eating dirt is not pleasant.

He doesn't have much to enjoy now, but when it comes to eating, he really doesn't want to wrong himself.

As he continued to recover and feel his condition, the carriage gradually arrived at the South City Gate.

There are still guards guarding the city gate.

They probably also received the news, but unfortunately they had to guard the city gate and could not leave. They just looked in the direction of the inner city from time to time, with worry in their eyes.

Their families are still in town.

There were not many tests required to leave the city. After verifying his identity, Gu Xing was allowed to leave.

In the process of leaving, the morning bell on the top of the city gate did not respond.

After successfully stepping onto the official road, Gu Xing looked back and took a distant look.

It has only been two months since I came to Yucheng, and now I have to leave again.

After sighing with emotion, he looked away.

And the carriage slowly drove into the wilderness.
