He Zhao didn’t pay any attention to Hong Zhen’s words. He simply walked around him and left.
“Not bad, kid,” Lu Xuan, standing in He Zhao’s pocket, nudged him with his wooden arm. “Such an obvious threat, and yet you chose not to beat him up.”
“Private fighting and crime are forbidden in the city. Everyone must abide by this rule,” He Zhao took a deep breath. “Hong Zhen wouldn’t dare break the rules here. I guess he’s deliberately provoking me to strike first. His uncle is the local magistrate here. If I fell for it and gave him leverage, it could endanger my mother.”
Since his father’s death, He Zhao had been through a lot. He was more sensible and mature than his peers.
“You should think about what to do next,” Ru Shou said. “That Hong Feng is in your team, and once outside the city, he’s likely to be hostile towards you.”
“What’s there to be afraid of?” Lu Xuan laughed. “We have Senior Ru Shou covering us outside the city. A little projection of his spirit is enough to suppress the entire Dream Ruins.”
“It’s good that you understand,” Ru Shou spoke leisurely. “Remember, you two are still under assessment. Once outside the city, follow my instructions, and I’ll ensure your safety.”
“Of course, no problem,” Lu Xuan readily agreed, curious to observe this Ru Shou.
He Zhao’s team’s highest cultivation level was the yellow-faced man, the captain at the early Orifice Solidification Stage, named Zhang Wanjun. The second-highest was a middle-aged woman at mid-Daoist Foundation Stage, named Li Rui, followed by Hong Feng at the peak of the Conviction Stage.
Among the thirteen members, four, including He Zhao, had not crossed the threshold of the Conviction Stage.
Hong Feng noticed He Zhao at the back of the crowd, greed flashing in his eyes.
He had already conspired with his brother to cripple He Zhao once outside the city, then pressure He Zhao’s mother for the Dream Stone, with Hong Feng taking possession of it.
Hong Feng wouldn’t kill He Zhao; a burden was more useful than a dead man. He Zhao would be a strain on his mother, forcing her to succumb. If He Zhao died, his mother would lose her weakness, which would not be beneficial to their plan.
He Zhao was unaware of Hong Feng’s current thoughts but was wary of him.
“We’ll split into groups, each picking team members. If we encounter
Nightmare Demons or Evil Spirits, we can form arrays to fight,” Zhang Wanjun suggested.
Li Rui and Hong Feng nodded in agreement. Excluding themselves, there were ten people. Zhang Wanjun, being of higher cultivation, took responsibility for four members. Li Rui and Hong Feng each chose three.
As expected, after picking two members, Hong Feng pointed at He Zhao: “You come to my group.”
He Zhao’s expression darkened, but he said nothing and followed Hong Feng.
The city gates slowly opened, revealing the thick darkness outside, boundless and limitless..
