The old leader continued to pretend to be asleep, keeping his eyes closed and relaxing his body, but he activated his supernatural abilities.
So he sensed that there was indeed a human in the room, and there was a sweet fragrance of osmanthus.
Actually, Li Yao had been eating late-night snacks to wait until midnight to take action, and the last thing she ate was milk osmanthus pudding.
In the end, the old man waited, but the stranger only gave him a magical, sweet drink, placed something by his pillow, and then left quietly.
But he used his superpower, so he was certain that the other party did not leave using superpowers.
After realizing that no one was in the room, he pretended to sleep for a while, then turned over to face the bedroom. He opened his eyes slightly but didn't see anyone, so he opened them again and looked at the things by the bedside.
It was a ginseng, a level 6 mutated century-old ginseng, as long as an adult's forearm, planted in a flowerpot, its leaves still lush and green.
The old man was somewhat moved, his trembling hand stroking the edge of the flowerpot, remaining silent for a long time.
"This is a good child," he thought to himself. "Anyone who would care about an old man like me must be a foreigner."
He didn't tell anyone about it and kept the secret until his death.
In the years that followed, this flowerpot remained by the old man's bedside and on his desk. Wherever he went, he would take the flowerpot with him whenever he needed to spend the night.
On his deathbed, he left the flowerpot to the next leader. He said nothing, only telling the person to take good care of it, entrusting his last hope to him.

After Li Yao left, she went back to the [Spirit Spring Space] to sleep.
The next day, she opened the [teleportation portal] and arrived at Lao Jun Mountain.
This is the place she ultimately chose for herself to live in seclusion.
Perhaps it's because she's reached a certain age, but her innate reclusive and farming DNA has begun to awaken. She looked at many places and finally decided to live the rest of her life here, leisurely farming and occasionally going to the beach or snow-capped mountains.
Laojun Mountain is familiar to everyone in the Dragon Kingdom; it is known as "an unparalleled sacred realm and the number one immortal mountain in the world."
During the Spring and Autumn Period, Laozi Li Er, who is recognized as the founder of Taoism, went to this place to live in seclusion and cultivate himself, making it the "source of Tao" (the origin of Taoism) and the "ancestral court" (the court of the patriarch).
The Northern Wei dynasty began by building a temple dedicated to Laozi on it to commemorate him.
In the eleventh year of the Zhenguan era of the Tang Dynasty, Emperor Taizong of Tang ordered Yuchi Jingde to rebuild the Tieding Laojun Temple on Jingshi Mountain and named it "Laojun Mountain".
In the 31st year of the Wanli reign of the Ming Dynasty, Emperor Shenzong issued an edict designating Laojun Mountain as a "famous mountain under heaven" and allocated funds to build a temple, making it the only mountain range in the country in history to be officially designated as a "famous mountain under heaven" by the emperor.
There are 16 temples here, including Taiqing Palace, Shifang Courtyard, Lingguan Hall, Lincu Hall, Shepherd's Pen, Jiuku Hall, Chuanjing Tower, Guanyin Hall, Sanqing Hall, and Laozi Temple.
Li Yao came to the Lao Jun Temple, which is at the highest point and has a view of the sea of clouds.
She used her mental energy to observe that there were no zombies in the vicinity, or rather, the zombies in these temples had all been cleared out.
According to Li Yao's observation, each temple here seemed to have a high-level superhuman leading some Taoist disciples, or rather, disciples who originally joined the sect at Lao Jun Mountain. They were clearly wearing Taoist robes and were all superhumans.
In some scenic areas, gift shops and snack shops were deserted and covered in a thick layer of dust.
These people are busy farming, digging for wild vegetables, picking tea, and carrying water on the back mountain.
Behind Li Yao, in the back hall of the Lao Jun Temple, there was an old man with a white beard meditating.
Li Yao's mental energy swept over the old man, and the old man opened his eyes and "looked" over.
"Very perceptive," Li Yao muttered to herself, arms crossed.
However, this old man was also a mental ability user, at the peak of level 11, the same level as Li Yao's mental ability.
This was the first Level 11 psychic ability user that Li Yao had met besides herself.
Li Yao figured that since she had been discovered, there was nothing left to hide. With so many people here, she couldn't bring herself to kill them all, so she had no choice but to join in.
Fortunately, she wasn't wearing an invisibility cloak today, but rather a full black protective suit.
Li Yao clasped his hands in a fist and bowed deeply to the statue of the deity in the Lao Jun Temple, then said, "Greetings, Daoist Master. This junior, Li Yao, has come to pay my respects."
