Chapter 775 - 773, Better to Do Less Than More
The Elixir Sect was located to the northwest of Mingyue City. According to Xu Wendong’s speed, if he went at full throttle, he could reach the Elixir Sect within three hours.
But doing so would be too blatant.
If he did, he might easily attract the attention of the Three Mountains and Nine Fortresses.
Because on the way to the Elixir Sect, he had to pass by a stockade village named Heifeng Stockade.
It was a bandit lair, where several leaders had the power equivalent to the Foundation Establishment Peak. If he really encountered them, Xu Wendong wouldn’t stand a chance.
Therefore, caution was necessary.
Seeing a caravan ahead, getting ready with their supplies, Xu Wendong quickly walked over and politely asked, "Excuse me, where are you heading?"
The caravan was small, only composed of a dozen or so middle-aged men whose skin was dark and rough, evidently from years of exposure and toil outdoors.
One of the middle-aged men replied casually, "We’re delivering herbs to the Elixir Sect, young brother. What’s your business?"
Xu Wendong’s eyes lit up. He didn’t expect these people were actually heading to the Elixir Sect. He hurriedly said, "I’m also going toward the Elixir Sect. I wonder if I could join all of you on the journey?"
