Song Lao's strength is still above Liu Dao's.
That's for sure.
No matter what, Song Lao is still an internal energy martial artist, just because of his old age and weakening energy, his strength has decreased a lot.
But even so, the boost from internal energy is huge.
At this moment, Song Lao, with a much thicker internal energy than Chen An, still has his strength above Chen An.
Of course, this is only under normal circumstances.
If it is truly a life and death battle, then it may not be the case.
After all, Song Lao is getting older and his energy is weakening.
For a person like him, if he can't kill the opponent at the beginning, it becomes dangerous afterwards.
If Chen An really fights Song Lao to the death, he can exchange injuries for injuries and slowly drag him to death.
The chance of winning should be over fifty percent.
Chen An pondered on the side, while also recalling the mistakes in the previous battle, correcting his own shortcomings.
For him, the gains from this practice are quite good.
At least it can deepen his application of martial arts, and his combat experience becomes richer.
It's quite good.
As he was thinking, the people around had already dispersed.
Chen An looked up and saw Bai Qing had already left from where she was before, returning to her own mansion.
Chen An followed Bai Qing's footsteps and arrived here.
"Well done."
Bai Qing turned around, looking at Chen An in front of her with a smile and said, "You did a great job this time, is there anything you want?"
Is this a reward she's preparing to give?
Chen An thought of this in his mind and subconsciously wanted to decline.
He really didn't want anything, and on the other hand, it was also to deepen the good impression he had in Bai Qing's heart.
However, later, he seemed to think of something and his tone changed.
Facing Bai Qing, his expression became serious.
The next day, in a small town in Fengcheng County.
"That's it."
In the alley, Bai Qing looked at the corpse at her feet, silently shook her head, then glanced at Chen An beside her, "Is this place really mysterious?"
Her tone was calm, as if it was just an ordinary matter.
"Thank you."
Behind her, Chen An's expression was respectful, his voice tinged with sighs, "If Miss hadn't taken action, this place's mystery might not have been resolved for some time."
At his feet at this moment was the mysterious creature he had encountered in the town that day.
When it flashed in front of Chen An that day, he remembered it, but due to the danger, he dared not to act.
Yesterday, taking advantage of Bai Qing's good mood, Chen An requested her to help resolve this anomaly.
Bai Qing's strength was indeed powerful, under her hands, this white clothed mysterious creature had no resistance at all and was directly dealt with cleanly, turning into a corpse.
"This mystery here is indeed tricky. Without abundant internal energy, it would be impossible to resolve it."
Bai Qing softly spoke as she looked at the mysterious creature's corpse, "In Fengcheng County, besides me, probably only a few people like Song Wang have the ability to handle this kind of mystery."
"You did the right thing by not acting on your own."
Chen An fell silent for a moment, then spoke sincerely, "I thank Miss on behalf of the many common people here."
"If it weren't for Miss's intervention, the people here would probably be harmed sooner or later."
"No problem, since you have this kind heart, I naturally want to contribute as well."
Bai Qing smiled.
Chen An asked Bai Qing to take action for the sake of the people here, to save the lives of hundreds of people.
Bai Qing highly appreciated this gesture.
No matter from which aspect, individuals who care for the people and show concern for the weak are worthy of praise.
So unknowingly, Chen An found that his position in Bai Qing's heart was getting higher.
Although he seemed to have not done much, he always seemed to unconsciously align with Bai Qing's thoughts.
For the time being, however, it seemed like a good thing.
Chen An sighed inwardly.
After a while, Bai Qing left with her people, before leaving, she instructed Chen An to burn the mysterious creature's body on the ground.
Chen An naturally agreed.
In fact, this was his original intention.
"Gained a strand of world energy crystal."
The subtitles flashed.
After Bai Qing left, Chen An began to prepare to burn the body of the mysterious creature.
First, he placed his hand on the creature's body, a cold feeling spreading from his palm, causing a smile to appear on Chen An's face.
The time for harvest had come.
While Chen An had some thoughts about helping the people here, the main idea was to benefit himself and charge up the upgrade template.
From the current perspective, this effect seemed quite good.
Because of the previous simulation, Chen An's energy had already been depleted, but after killing the mysterious creature, his energy was now once again replenished.
Looking at the figures around him, Chen An completely drained the energy and attempted to simulate.
"Simulation has ended."
"Evaluation: Your life is mediocre."
"You gained ten points of source power."
A moment later, the simulation ended again, and a large number of memory fragments rushed into his mind, which Chen An skimmed through.
He looked at the template in front of him, sighing at the increased source power.
His luck wasn't good this time, the simulation only increased ten points of source power, which was less compared to the previous simulation.
But it seemed there was nothing he could do about it, so he had to accept it.
Moreover, Chen An had some new discoveries about the simulation.
The manipulation section while projecting had undergone some changes, no longer completely gray as before, but now had some other colors.
By the looks of it, perhaps in the near future, Chen An would be able to start trying to manipulate, rather than continuing with simulations.
Although simulations were good, the rewards were shallow.
Not only was each process uncontrollable, but the rewards were also unstable.
If luck wasn't good, it might even end up with nothing, too unstable.
Therefore, Chen An thought it was best to try direct manipulation.
If suitable, perhaps the rewards would be a level higher.
Based on the current results, maybe that time wasn't far off.
Chen An thought to himself about this idea.
After a while, he had someone burn the mysterious creature's body on the ground, then turned and left.
Compared to looking for various mysterious objects, directly finding living ones yielded greater rewards, with more energy to harvest.
The only regret was that Bai Qing couldn't be called upon often. Occasionally was fine, but if it became frequent, it would likely be a different matter.
Otherwise, Chen An really wanted to take Bai Qing with him to defeat all the mysterious creatures around Fengcheng County.
By then, there would definitely be a lot of energy to harvest.
It's a pity that this idea could only remain as a thought.
Over the next half month, Chen An stayed at home and didn't do much.
He mainly took care of some personal matters.
As he was about to leave Fengcheng County, Chen An had to make some arrangements, or else it might be too late.
Under such busyness, time slowly passed, approaching a new critical moment.
"Let's go."
Early in the morning, Bai Qing and her group stood on the official road, looking back at Fengcheng County.
Among the crowd, Chen An also stood there, riding a horse and looking back.
"Do you feel a little reluctant?"
Bai Qing looked at Chen An's appearance and smiled.
"A bit."
Chen An nodded and said truthfully.
After all, he had stayed in this city for quite some time and had become familiar with various places.
Now leaving again, he couldn't help but feel a bit sentimental.
"No problem."
Bai Qing smiled and said, "If you're willing, in a few years' time, you can always come back."
"But by then, this place may not be the same anymore."
She spoke with implications in her words.
Chen An nodded, "I understand."
"Let's go."
As they spoke, Bai Qing got into the carriage.
The group set off, following the official road towards a new territory.
According to Bai Qing, they needed to spend half a month on the road to reach their destination this time.
It will be a much larger stage, far different from the small Fengcheng County.
Song Lao's strength is still above Liu Dao's.
That's for sure.
No matter what, Song Lao is still an internal energy martial artist, just because of his old age and weakening energy, his strength has decreased a lot.
But even so, the boost from internal energy is huge.
