149. The Scheme of Sowing Discord

```

The mountains were dark against the sky, stars sunk in a haze.

In the tranquil night forest, a sense of peace pervaded, only occasionally interrupted by the low roar of some distant beast, revealing its true nature.

Two figures slowly made their way through the darkness, heading towards a nearby village.

"You've just had your Core Formation breakthrough, are you sure you don't need to rest some more?"

Xu Yuan looked at the girl whose cheeks still held a flush, and asked.

"The vengeance for our exterminated clan won't rest until I have taken it with my own hands. My heart will not be at peace otherwise."

Xue Lin shook her head and gazed at the village still adorned with a few lingering lights in the forest, her eyes sharp.

"That's fine."

Xu Yuan didn't try to persuade her further, he simply took her slightly cold hand in his, stood up, and said, "Let's go."

"Are we really just going to waltz in there like this?"

Xue Lin was a bit puzzled.

"Yes."

Xu Yuan nodded.
