Immortality Begins with Breathing Exercises

Chapter 152: Chapter 84: Sweeping Away All Opposition (Part 3)

”Mr. Lin, why don’t you leave with us when the time comes?”

Xu Qin Yi looked at Lin Zheyu and said.

Taking all the members of the Feihong Gang away was impossible.

The members of the Feihong Gang almost all had families and relatives in Songyi City. Convincing them to leave wasn’t an easy task.

For ordinary people, having Songyi City fall didn’t completely mean there was no way out. Relocating the entire family might not necessarily be a better option than staying in the city.

Only these wealthy and influential families needed to worry about losing their wealth and land.

The Xu Family was planning to move the whole family, but they could only try to take those skilled individuals willing to go with them.

”Can I think about it for a few days?”

Lin Zheyu pondered for a moment and said, ”I need to ask Mr. Han and see what he plans to do. If Mr. Han needs manpower, I might have to go and lend him a hand.”

Lin Zheyu was closer to Han Mo since he was his senior brother.

Besides, Mr. Han had just risen to prominence, and his strength was far from the Xu Family’s, so he would need him more.

”We won’t be leaving so soon. As long as you make a decision before we depart, it’s fine,” Xu Qin Yi said.

He did not blame Lin Zheyu.

Leaving Songyi City was a major decision, and he guessed that not many people would be willing to follow them when the time came.

Moreover, Lin Zheyu was going to help his senior brother. In comparison, his relationship with Han Mo was closer than with the Xu Family.

”Be careful this month before leaving. The Xing Family has become increasingly brazen since they learned of the chaos army’s capture of Baohe City and inferred that the City Lord is not in the city.”

”They’ve set their sights on you, and I’m worried the Xing Family might make a direct move against you,” Xu Qin Yi cautioned.

”I will be careful.”

Lin Zheyu nodded.

With his current strength, anyone who could pose a threat to him would need to be at least a Qi Blood Three Transformations expert.

Although the Xing Family was strong, there wouldn’t be many experts above Qi Blood Three Transformations, and Lin Zheyu didn’t believe they would send such experts to deal with a minor character like him.

...

Morning.

Lin Zheyu arrived early at the Han Mansion.

Han Mo was in the backyard, practicing the Ten Thousand Army Step Skill.

When he saw Lin Zheyu arrive, he stopped his cultivation and walked to the pavilion.

”Is there something urgent?” Han Mo asked.

In all the time they had known each other, Lin Zheyu had never visited so early in the morning.

”Senior Brother, I got news from the Xu Family that the chaos army has already captured Baohe City. What are your plans next?”

Lin Zheyu said.

”What?!”

”The chaos army captured Baohe City? So quickly? How is that possible!”

Han Mo couldn’t help but exclaim in shock, clearly unaware of this news.

”I heard it from Young Master Xu Qin Yi. They have business in Baohe City, so the information should be reliable,” Lin Zheyu said.

Han Mo couldn’t help but stand up, pacing back and forth.

Unlike Lin Zheyu, Han Mo had a family to consider, not just his wife and children, but also a large extended family.

”Senior Brother, if needed, you can leave with the Xu Family,” Lin Zheyu suggested.

The road was fraught with bandits and dangers, making it safer to evacuate with the Xu Family.

”No, it’s not time to leave yet. There are still two more cities, and the chaos army may not be able to breach them.”

”Moreover, as a Centurion in the City Garrison Army, I’m paid by Great Wei to quell the rebellion. Deserting at this time is strictly forbidden in the military and would be treated as treason,” Han Mo said, shaking his head.

Though he wanted to leave, he couldn’t. Even sending his wife and children away was troublesome, as it might be seen as having desertion tendencies.

”If you want to leave, just go by yourself. If the city can’t be defended, I’ll retreat with the army.”

Han Mo frowned, pondering for a moment.

He couldn’t leave, nor could he send his family away.

As a member of the City Garrison Army, his position was sensitive, and trying to leave would easily be labeled as desertion.

The Xing Family was in a similar situation. They controlled nearly a third of the City Garrison Army, and most of their members couldn’t evacuate, so they could only secretly send out a small portion of their people.

This was why they were so desperate to quickly strengthen their family’s capabilities.

”Alright, if there’s anything you need, just let me know.”

”By the way, I got a few Blood Elixirs from bandits earlier that can help someone break through from the Peak of Refining Internal Organs to the Qi Blood Realm.”

”See if you need them. If you do, I can give you two,” Lin Zheyu offered after some thought.

”You even have Blood Elixirs?”

Han Mo said, somewhat surprised.

However, he didn’t delve deeper. Everyone had their secrets, and he felt that Mr. Lin was a person of great fortune.

”Sell me two, forty taels of gold per elixir.”

”Don’t decline, Blood Elixirs are far more valuable than you think, especially in times like these,” Han Mo said after a moment of thought.

He wasn’t buying them for himself, as Han Mo was confident he could break through to the Qi Blood Realm within a month. He was buying them for his family members and the guards at home.

By enhancing the strength of those around him, their security would be better ensured.

”Do you need more? I have two extra. I originally planned to save them, but if you need them, I’ll give them to you together.”

Lin Zheyu thought for a moment and said.

”In these times, I won’t be polite. Sell them all to me!”

Han Mo nodded, not holding back.

The approaching chaos army gave him a sense of crisis. Only by quickly strengthening his family’s power could they survive the current turmoil.

”Alright!”

Lin Zheyu nodded, taking out a bottle containing the Blood Elixirs and handing it over.

Before coming, he had already anticipated the possibility that Han Mo wouldn’t be able to leave, given his sensitive position.

Not only that, but he also brought plenty of poison and toxic powders.

”Do you need poison and toxic powders, Senior Brother? I have some here, which you can keep for emergencies,” Lin Zheyu said.

Although he had advanced to the level of Qi Blood Two Transformations, when faced with an army, he was still nothing more than a slightly larger ant.

All Lin Zheyu could do was these small things. As for the outcome, it would be up to his senior brother’s fate.
