Hearing this, the Third Commander fell silent and fell into a long period of contemplation...
After a long while... he slowly opened his mouth and ordered, "How about this, you quickly send someone to secretly monitor him."
"If you discover any improper or suspicious behavior from him, you must report it to me immediately. Don't take it lightly!"
"Yes, sir!"
The yellow-haired man responded, then turned and left to arrange for people to carry out the task.
The next morning—
Suddenly, a loud "bang" was heard in the cave.
Lu Jingzhi suddenly woke up from the bathtub, his face full of astonishment. He looked down at his body and felt the surging fluctuations of the mysterious energy in his body. He was ecstatic.
"I actually managed to break through in my sleep!"
Lu Jingzhi excitedly stood up from the bathtub. As he stood up, the bath water, which was originally turbid and exuded a strong medicinal smell, instantly became transparent and clear.
Lu Jingzhi couldn't help but mutter to himself, "All these precious medicinal herbs have finally not been wasted!"
"Haha, after all this hard work, I finally succeeded in breaking through to the sixth star of the Xuanling Realm!"
Lu Jingzhi touched his shriveled stomach and said, "I'm so hungry. I guess I need to go to the mountains and hunt a snow wolf to replenish my energy."
He stood up from the bathtub, put on clean clothes, put on a cotton hat, and took a look into the depths of the cave.
Taking a step, he flew outside into the cold wind.
At the same time, a group of blue-skinned people wearing white cloaks were lying on the surrounding snow-capped mountains.
They came here on the orders of the three commanders to observe every move here.
When they watched Lu Jingzhi walk out of the cave and then disappear in a flash, the subordinates standing by could not help but look at each other.
One of them even lowered his voice and shouted anxiously, "Captain...Captain, that person is gone!"
"Should we go into the cave and take a look?"
"Maybe we can find something important!"
The leading captain frowned slightly and fell into a brief moment of contemplation...
"Let me go in and take a look. What on earth does this man do in this cave?"
"good."
So, the group of people were nervous and sneaky, taking advantage of Lu Jingzhi's absence, and tiptoed towards the cave entrance.
The captain stretched out his long neck and looked into the cave like a vigilant giraffe.
After making sure that there was indeed no one in the cave, he stepped in with confidence.
As soon as you enter the cave, the first thing that catches your eye is a bathtub.
Next to the bathtub was a used stove with some cooking utensils on it.
Looking further inside, a tea table was quietly placed in the corner.
Just as the captain was looking around, he suddenly heard a shout in his ear: "Boss, boss, look!"
The captain looked in the direction of the sound and saw one of his men walking towards him quickly with excitement on his face, holding a bunch of colorful bottles and jars of various shapes in his hands.
"What are these?" the captain asked in confusion.
"Captain, these are all treasures!"
The subordinate's voice trembled with excitement. "These are all excellent medicines that can help practitioners refine their bodies, strengthen their meridians, and enhance their physical fitness!"
At this moment, another subordinate came over and interrupted, "But it's not good to take other people's things without permission. What if we get caught?"
Upon hearing this, the captain frowned, his face showing displeasure, and retorted, "What do you know? Do you know how many spirit stones it costs to buy such a small bottle of medicine?"
"We usually live in the open air and go through life and death. We finally have the chance to come across such a good thing. How can we let it go so easily?"
"Besides, we only took one or two bottles, I don't think he would find out."
After saying that, the captain no longer paid attention to the two men, but stared at the bottles and jars with shining eyes.
Then, without hesitation, he reached out and picked out two bottles of the most precious-looking medicine, quickly stuffing them into his waist pocket.
After finishing all this, the captain waved his hand and said to the subordinate holding the bottles and jars, "Okay, that's enough. Put the rest of these things back to where they belonged."
"Be quick and don't make any noise!"
The subordinate holding the bottle said hesitantly, "Captain, should we get two more bottles? After all, this opportunity is rare!"
"No, taking too much will easily attract his attention, and then we will be in big trouble."
After hearing this, the subordinate felt a little reluctant, but he had no choice but to put the medicine bottle back to its original place.
However, just as he put the bottle down, while no one was paying attention, he quietly picked up another bottle and quickly hid it in his waist bag.
At this time, another subordinate shouted excitedly: "Captain, come and see."
"There's actually a stone door here. Maybe there are more precious treasures hidden behind it!"
