Chapter 630: Chapter 629, Xu Wendong’s Fear

”I didn’t expect the Purgatory in Shen Wenhui’s memory to be Jiang Family Village!”

Xu Wendong couldn’t calm his inner turmoil.

When he delved into Shen Wenhui’s memory, he had a sense of déjà vu about the Purgatory.

But.

He couldn’t recall where he had seen it before.

Now he realized it was indeed Jiang Family Village.

After all, he had been to Jiang Family Village once. It just didn’t come to mind immediately.

At the same time.

He also recognized.

The secrets of Jiang Family Village were not as simple as he had imagined.

If nothing unexpected happened, there were surely cultivators from Wa Country here.

------

On the beach.

The bonfire roared.

The seafood on the grill released a mouthwatering aroma that made one’s fingers twitch with anticipation.

Countless stars lit up the pitch-black night sky, as far as the eye could see, dazzling as if countless jewels were embedded in the night by someone.

After tasting the delicious seafood, Xu Wendong returned to his tent.

As for Liu Shimei, she shared a tent with Ji Ning.

Even though Liu Shimei really wanted to be with Xu Wendong, to fill the loneliness and emptiness in her heart, she didn’t dare sleep in Xu Wendong’s tent with others around.

It was late at night.

Faint sounds of waves came from afar.

Xu Wendong sat cross-legged, and his Soul Force spread out once again, enveloping the entire Jiang Family Village, sensing every movement.

Because it was nighttime, the villagers of Jiang Family Village were all asleep, and Xu Wendong could clearly see them.

”Why do these people look so haggard?”

Some of the elderly in Jiang Family Village seemed to be in their fifties or sixties. Without exception, they were all thin and gaunt, looking as if they were seriously ill.

However.

As a doctor, Xu Wendong couldn’t figure out what symptoms they were suffering from.

Traditional Chinese medicine emphasizes observation, hearing, questioning, and pulse-taking.

In Xu Wendong’s medical practice, it was the first time he encountered such a situation.

Moreover.

It wasn’t just one person with this condition.

All the elderly in the village had similar symptoms.

”Could this be why the average lifespan of men in Jiang Family Village is only fifty-some years?”

”What exactly is causing them to suffer from this strange illness?”

”And only men are affected while women are fine?”

”Genetic inheritance?”

Xu Wendong dismissed this idea.

His Soul Force continued to observe the villagers.

And at that moment.

He felt a strong sense of oppression.

An inexplicable sense of crisis welled up in his heart.

As if there were a pair of cold eyes staring at him invisibly.

This feeling made his skin crawl, and he instinctively withdrew his Soul Force.

At this time.

Sweat had already appeared densely on his face and back.

”What the hell is going on?”

”What exactly is watching me in the dark?”

Xu Wendong rarely felt fear.

But just now.

He unexpectedly felt fear.

After all, he was a powerful being at the Sixth Level of Qi Refining Stage, and very few things could threaten him and make him feel afraid.

”With my current strength, if I were to confront that unknown existence in the dark, I would surely face certain death!”

Xu Wendong’s face looked sallow.

He had no idea what was in Jiang Family Village.

But one thing was clear.

There was an unknown and powerful presence here.

And as he was now.

His chance of defeating it was almost zero.

”The water in Jiang Family Village is too deep, and it could be the most complex place in Haicheng.”

”With my current strength, I can’t uncover its secrets.”

”Unless I want to die!”

Xu Wendong’s expression was complicated.

He initially thought working in Haicheng would be easy, but now he realized it was infinitely more difficult than he had ever imagined.

The next day.

After breakfast, the three packed up and left Jiang Family Village.

Back in Haicheng, Xu Wendong locked himself in his room. He needed to refine elixirs and must quickly improve his strength.

Only then could he continue to delve into the secrets of Jiang Family Village.

However.

After consuming more than a dozen Qi Refining Pills, there was no improvement in his cultivation level.

”They shouldn’t be ineffective!”

”I’ve taken so many elixirs over this period. Reasonably, I should have advanced, but why does taking them feel like drinking plain water?”

”Why is there no effect at all?”

Xu Wendong was a bit confused.

”Could it be that I need Yin Harvesting to break through the barrier?” Xu Wendong scratched his head with one hand. Even though he had been with Liu Shimei for a long time and could gain a bit of True Qi from their time together,

it was already very faint.

He was with Liu Shimei now purely for pleasure, unrelated to cultivation.

”The problem is, even if I wanted to do Yin Harvesting now, who would be willing?” Xu Wendong stood helplessly at the window, smoking.

During his time in Haicheng, he had been quite decent, only committing to Liu Shimei and not entangling himself with other women.

In fact, he had no female companions around him.

Oh!

Though he had Ji Ning, the driver, Ji Ning wasn’t his type.

Suddenly.

Xu Wendong thought of Shen Wenhui’s daughter, Shen Shiwu.

That yoga instructor.

She had once misunderstood Xu Wendong, wanting to offer herself to him in exchange for saving her father.

But Xu Wendong refused her.

But truth be told.

Shen Shiwu was definitely an outstanding and stunning woman.

In simple terms, she fit Xu Wendong’s taste.

Thinking this.

He picked up his phone and sent a WeChat message to Shen Shiwu: ”Do you have time to grab a meal together?”

A moment later.

Xu Wendong received a reply from Shen Shiwu: ”You choose the place and let me know after booking!”

Xu Wendong had a faint smile on his face.

He liked women who were straightforward like that.

He then asked Liu Shimei to book a nice restaurant in Haicheng. As night fell, he took a taxi to the restaurant.

This restaurant was located in the most bustling area of Haicheng, with a view from the large windows overlooking most of Haicheng’s nightscape. The colorful neon lights lit up the night, looking dreamlike.

In just a short while after Xu Wendong sat down, Shen Shiwu appeared in his view.

Tall and slim, she wore a red spaghetti-strap dress, revealing a seductive collarbone and two round silhouettes at the front, looking fair-skinned and alluring.

She was wearing a black jacket and held a motorcycle helmet in her hand, giving off a valiant vibe.

Especially her height, which made her stand out no matter where she went.

Shen Shiwu placed the helmet on the table and looked at Xu Wendong with a smile: ”Why did you think of inviting me to dinner? Could it be there’s some progress on that case?”

She had a good impression of Xu Wendong, not just because of his medical skills, but also because when she threw herself at him, he didn’t take advantage of her vulnerability.

Just this point alone made her feel favorable towards him.

Not to mention, Xu Wendong had also saved her father.
