Muscle is Strength - Chapter23

Time passed quickly. Before he knew it, it was already past one o 'clock in the afternoon.

The plane landed next to Black Mountain, which was five to six kilometers away from Black Mountain Village.

Xu Yan, who was sitting in his seat, opened his eyes. After a few hours of cultivation, his inner force and spiritual opportunity had not increased at all. It seemed that his cultivation talent was not very good …

Fortunately, after such a long period of cultivation, Xu Yan was already very proficient in the use of inner force and spiritual opportunity. Xu Yan should be able to advance to the Immortal Realm as soon as tomorrow night!

By then, he would really be extraordinary!

Even if he faced the strongest unsolvable freak, Xu Yan would be able to keep his life. He would really not have to worry about his own safety.

"What do we need to prepare now?" After getting off the plane, Xu Yan turned to look at Zhao Gongming.

"This freak will only appear at night. There is nothing there during the day. We can take advantage of the day to install some small signal towers there to prevent us from getting lost when the freak appears.

"Then, we will install three high-power signal towers one thousand meters, two thousand meters, and three thousand meters away from the village. If there is an accident, we can run out according to the signals of the signal towers.

"Then, I will bring two drones to help us check if there is any danger around us …"

Hearing Zhao Gongming's words, Xu Yan was speechless. "Stop, stop, stop. Are you saying that all your preparations are for escape?"

"Yes!

The rule of the special department is to never fight a battle without preparation, especially when confronting powerful freaks. We must be prepared to escape in advance! "Zhao Gongming said matter-of-factly.

Xu Yan was also speechless. There was too much preparation. It was too troublesome!

"Forget it. You prepare first. I will go to the ruins of the village first and see if I can find anything."

Xu Yan turned to Zhao Gongming and waved his hand. "Don't worry about me. Even if it appears in advance, I am confident that I can survive."

After saying that, Xu Yan turned the plane into a bicycle and rode to the ruins of Black Mountain Village.

Looking at Xu Yan's carelessness, Zhao Gongming was speechless. This was going against a City-destroying freak!

And it was a freak that was more powerful than an ordinary City-destroying freak!

How could he be so casual?

Shaking his head, Zhao Gongming began to look for a location to set up a signal tower.

He firmly believed that his preparations were all useful!

Xu Yan didn't ride very fast, at a speed of less than 60 km/h. This speed was just right for him to survey his surroundings while riding.

This Black Earth Mountain lived up to its name. It was a black earth mountain.

There were some small trees and weeds growing here and there, giving people a feeling of desolation and lack of vitality.

As they continued forward, a dilapidated village appeared in front of Xu Yan.

At a glance, this village had been abandoned for many years. Most of the houses had collapsed, and only a small portion was still tenaciously holding on. However, they were all on the verge of collapse, as if a gust of wind would cause them to collapse.

Lowering the speed, Xu Yan leisurely rode into the village.

The main road in the middle of the village was paved with a layer of bricks, so there weren't many weeds growing, and it wasn't strenuous to ride.

Both sides of the road were covered with weeds that were taller than a person. When the wind blew, there would be a rustling sound, as if something was hidden inside.

After riding along the main road in the village, Xu Yan didn't find anything strange. He could only wait until nighttime to come again.

Turning his head, Xu Yan went back the way he came. When he reached the entrance of the village, he stopped and turned the bicycle into a pavilion. Sitting inside, he continued to cultivate.

Time passed quickly during cultivation. In the blink of an eye, a few hours had passed.

At four o 'clock in the afternoon, Zhao Gongming finished installing the signal tower outside the village and came to the entrance of the village. He immediately saw Xu Yan, who was cultivating, and sighed.

No wonder he reached the Heaven-rank at such a young age. He was really diligent in his cultivation!

Zhao Gongming didn't disturb Xu Yan. He gently placed his backpack beside the pavilion and walked into the village with the remaining signal towers.

Xu Yan opened his eyes and glanced at Zhao Gongming's figure entering the village. Then, he closed his eyes and continued to cultivate.

In the blink of an eye, two hours had passed. It was six o 'clock in the evening.

Xu Yan opened his eyes and looked at the sun that was about to set. It was less than half an hour before the sun completely set.

However, Zhao Gongming, who had entered the village, hadn't come out yet!

Something wasn't right.

Xu Yan stood up and looked at the dilapidated village. Under the setting sun, the village seemed to be covered with a thin layer of golden gauze. It looked like an old photo from the last century.

According to the agreement between Xu Yan and Zhao Gongming, the two of them were to gather 500 meters outside the village at six o 'clock and wait for the arrival of the freaks. Then, they would enter the village together.

However, Zhao Gongming had been in the village for two hours, and there was no movement at all.

Something must have happened to Zhao Gongming!

Xu Yan took out his phone, found Zhao Gongming's number, and dialed it.

"Xu Yan!

Why are you looking for me? "

The call actually went through!

Looking at Zhao Gongming's backpack next to the pavilion, Xu Yan was a little surprised.

Originally, he thought that something had happened to Zhao Gongming since he hadn't come out for such a long time. He didn't expect Zhao Gongming to still be able to pick up the phone. Moreover, he sounded very happy.

"Didn't we agree to gather outside the village at six o 'clock?

Why are you still in the village? "Xu Yan asked curiously.

"Aiya!

I forgot about it. It was mainly because I was too happy to see my parents and fellow villagers!

I was too excited and my brain went haywire! "Zhao Gongming slapped his forehead and remembered the agreement with Xu Yan. He apologized profusely.

"Parents?

Fellow villagers?

You saw the people in the village? "Xu Yan asked curiously.

"Yes!

I haven't seen my parents for a long time. I was too excited and forgot about the agreement, "Zhao Gongming said awkwardly." Why don't you come to the village to look for me?

My house is next to the statue in the middle of the village. You can see me when you come. "

"Let me ask you something. Do you remember why we are here this time?" Xu Yan asked Zhao Gongming suddenly.

"Of course we are here to kill the freak!" Zhao Gongming was a little puzzled but still answered.

"Then do you remember why we are here to kill this freak?" Xu Yan continued to ask.

"I understand what you are worried about. I am fine!"

Zhao Gongming continued. "Actually, I made a mistake. The villagers had already escaped when the freak came. They were not killed by the freak!"

"So that's the case!

Alright, I will go and look for you now, "Xu Yan said and hung up the phone.

Xu Yan hung up the phone and looked at the phone on the disconnected page. He muttered to himself, "What a freak. Even I was almost fooled!"

After saying that, Xu Yan looked at Zhao Gongming's phone, which was charging in his backpack outside the pavilion.

"Since you dare to put your hands on my head, let's fight!"

Xu Yan put away the pavilion and strode toward the village.

He knew that there was a tiger in the mountain, but he still walked toward it!
