"Phew, looks like everything should be alright now,"
Atop the mountain, Lu Changsheng opened his eyes, exhaling lightly as the two middle-grade spirit stones in his hand turned to powder.
He had stayed on this mountain for over half a month.
Besides a few wild beasts coming to offer themselves as meals, no one had searched for him at all.
So Lu Changsheng was also preparing to return.
After all, if they really had the means, half a month was more than enough time to find him.
The fact that no one came for so long also indicated that there was no trouble.
Stepping out of the cave, Lu Changsheng released the Iron Feather Eagle, ready to take off, when he saw flames reaching towards the sky from a small mountain village at the base of the mountain.
"Hmm, what's happened there, bandits?"
Lu Changsheng's brows furrowed slightly as he looked carefully and faintly heard cries and screams.
