Master of Fangcun

It was just past midnight on the fourteenth day of the second month.

"Brother, why did you suddenly stop?"

Li Qing reined in his horse, looking at Li Shun in puzzlement after seeing him come to a halt.

Li Shun did not answer. Instead, he silently calculated in his heart.

'Once I absorb the Xuanhuang Qi of Heaven and Earth, it will inevitably trigger heavenly punishment. There is no escaping it. My only option is to activate Threefold Self-Reflection.'

'Based on last time's experience, the moment the reset is complete, Great Qian's Directorate of Celestial Observation will notice the missing Xuanhuang Qi of Heaven and Earth. There is even a chance the Great Siming will personally come to investigate.'

'Appearing at the scene of the crime twice in a row would make me far too suspicious. I need to get as far away as possible...'

'Judging by Moonlit White's speed, we should arrive around the eleventh hour tonight.'

'With two commanderies separating us, that should be enough to avoid suspicion.'
