109 Ambushing the Barbarians

One year later…

In Mou City; situated in Fortress-Prefecture Fu of the Da Qi kingdom…

Shi Mu was attired in black clothes. A silver dagger and a black blade were sheathed and hung on his back. His eyes were closed; he sat cross-legged on a branch of a huge tree. He was surrounded by several tree branches.

Two or three years had passed in a blink of an eye since he had left the fishing village. His appearance and stature had undergone major changes during this time.

However, his big eyes and thick eyebrows hadn’t changed. But, his face looked more conspicuous and resolute because of years of hard training. Even his facial features had become more distinct. His tanned complexion had been replaced by a bronze color.

He had grown taller. He had gained broad shoulders and a strong chest. His arms were as strong as cast iron. He had gained several distinct personality traits apart from the innate stubbornness and wildness that he had always possessed.
