Chapter 323: Lord Lan Escaped by a Crafty Scheme!
Lord Lan Escaped by a Crafty Scheme! . . .
Contemplating the hidden wound that had not fully healed in Song Jue and the unresolved injury affecting his father, Cha Eun Xiao\'s mind began to churn. He contemplated the treacherous world of martial arts, replete with schemes and deceptions, and the prospect of facing bloodshed and death in the days to come.
This spectacularly wondrous skill was a treasure coveted by all who knew of it. Cha Eun Xiao counted himself lucky to possess it, yet he had nearly made the grave error of casting it aside, allowing the trivial to overshadow its true importance.
With a deep breath, he activated the Yang Eye and directed his gaze towards Bing-Er\'s body. The familiar itchiness settled into his eyes, and before him appeared the exquisite form of a naked woman.
Cha Eun Xiao struggled to suppress a nosebleed, his focus unwavering as he attempted to see beyond the skin. As anticipated, his vision delved deeper, revealing the pulsing network of blood beneath.
Although he yearned to penetrate further into the mysteries of the human body, he couldn\'t see any deeper than that. With another deep breath, he slowly deactivated the Yin Yang Eyes.
He reasoned, "My Yin Yang Eyes are currently at the initial level, so I can only penetrate this deeply. Perhaps, with more time and dedication to my cultivation, I will eventually unlock the ability to see through the entirety of the human body."
Cha Eun Xiao\'s thoughts grew brighter as he considered the possibilities. He envisioned employing the Yang Eye to heal hidden wounds in individuals like Song Jue and his father. In future battles or wars, this skill could provide him with a significant advantage.
As his perspective evolved, he realized that the skill he had initially underestimated was, in fact, a profoundly powerful technique. Cha Eun Xiao found himself in possession of an extraordinary skill that was utterly unique in the world, if not the entire universe.
Unbeknownst to anyone else, he could wield this skill to conquer and seize advantages across vast realms.
These realizations filled Cha Eun Xiao with a sense of exhilaration, prompting uncontrollable laughter.
He couldn\'t contain his laughter, though it bore a somewhat wretched tone. In that moment, a thought flickered across Cha Eun Xiao\'s mind, a thought of someday reuniting with Lian Lian, a thought that was swiftly suppressed with a self-chiding "Ahem... I can\'t think about it further."
He was aware that such thoughts had a tendency to provoke nosebleeds, and it was unbecoming for a man to dwell on such indecent matters constantly.
Meanwhile, Bing-Er observed Cha Eun Xiao\'s peculiar and somewhat flirtatious smile, causing her own cheeks to flush with embarrassment. Her feelings were a mixture of curiosity and intrigue, leaving her unsure about how to react.
Following these musings, Cha Eun Xiao dedicated an entire day to cultivating the Yin Yang Eyes. Having recognized the incredible potential of this skill, he understood the importance of honing it as quickly as possible. The sooner he improved it, the more substantial the benefits it would bring.
Hence, he spent a total of four and a half peaceful days at home, a rarity since his rebirth. However, unbeknownst to him, significant events unfolded during his secluded period.
After acquiring the dan beads from Feng Monarch, Lan Langlang took swift action that very night. Gathering three hundred guards, they disguised themselves and embarked on a journey southward. His intent was to expedite the delivery of the dan beads to his father.
Initially, Lan Langlang had informed everyone that he would set out in three days, yet as night descended, he swiftly assembled a small group of men within his residence and departed, leaving the "three days" promise unfulfilled.
In doing so, he executed a clever stratagem, realizing that the longer he delayed, the more time his adversaries would have to make their own preparations. Lan Langlang understood the importance of swiftness in warfare and opted for immediate action, eschewing any formal preparations.
With this bold move, he aimed to stay ahead of his opponents, even when they believed he had three days until his departure.
Cha Eun Xiao\'s actions had thrown a wrench into Wenren Chuchu\'s plans. She had originally intended to catch up with him and eliminate him on the first day, but her presence with Bing Xinyue had made it improper to conduct official business. She believed that Lan Langlang would need time to gather a reliable group of guards to protect the precious treasures he was entrusted with, and such an important task demanded caution.
However, Lan Langlang defied expectations by acting unexpectedly. When Wenren Chuchu dispatched someone to observe the South General\'s House the next day, he had already traveled three hundred miles away. It was only on the fourth day that Wenren Chuchu\'s agents were certain that he had truly left the South General\'s House. By that time, Lan Langlang had distanced himself by three thousand miles from the capital, rendering Wenren Chuchu\'s efforts futile.
Her fury knew no bounds. She berated her spies for their incompetence, scolding them harshly for taking three days to confirm Lan Langlang\'s departure. Her disdain for them was palpable as she declared them worse than pigs.
The spies, their faces pale, kept their heads lowered, fully aware that they had been unjustly criticized. They had acted based on the information available to them, and in their minds, it was not evident that Lan Langlang had plotted such an elaborate scheme.
The realization that Lan Langlang had successfully executed this plan caught everyone off guard. Wenren Chuchu was left with a bitter taste of admiration for his strategic acumen.
Upon hearing of these developments, Zuo Wuji paused in thought. He acknowledged that Lan Langlang\'s swift and resolute decision-making demonstrated his great potential to achieve significant feats. He had transformed from the foppish young lord of yesteryears into a man capable of remarkable accomplishments.
