"Why isn't there any response?"

"Is this method not going to work?"

Han Ping'an frowned.

The giant snake inside his body breathed in and out towards the moon, but it only absorbed the lunar essence and yin energy that Rongrong had brought over.

There was no response from the outside world.

The greater the expectation, the greater the disappointment.

Unexpected.

A subtle, indescribable ripple, carrying a faint sense of familiarity, drifted into my body.

Before Han Ping'an could even experience it, he was swallowed whole by the giant snake.

Moonlight and Dark Yin!

coming.

Han Ping'an was so excited that he trembled all over.

It turns out it wasn't that it couldn't work, but that the time wasn't right yet.

The giant serpent can devour moonlight, and it can continue to grow stronger with cultivation. Even if it becomes weak on its own in the future, it will be more than capable of supporting the cultivation of the Nine Yin Jade Bone Claw.

"Brother Han, you..."

Suddenly, he heard Rongrong's incredulous murmur in his ear. Han Ping'an glanced at her and smiled slightly, "You felt it?"

"Um."

Rongrong nodded emphatically, blinking her jewel-like eyes. The crescent moon in her vertical pupil looked exceptionally beautiful and eerie at this moment, and it also carried a deep sense of shock.

Brother Han actually did it.

That's too fast.

"It's all thanks to Rongrong, you've done a great job. I'll take you out for something delicious later." Han Ping'an rubbed the latter's head.

"Thank you, Brother Han." Rongrong's eyes lit up, and she couldn't help but swallow.

She's actually a little foodie.

Han Ping'an smiled upon seeing this and said in a low voice, "You don't need to give me any more Moon Essence and Profound Yin for now."

"it is good."

immediately.

He closed his eyes again and got into the zone.

One strand, two strands, three strands...

As time passed, wisps of moonlight and yin energy drifted into his body.

The sensation was incredibly clear.

Han Ping'an, while experiencing the Moon Essence and Profound Yin, controlled the giant snake to preserve all the Moon Essence and Profound Yin he had absorbed within its body.

And so, the night passed.

As the light of day appeared, the bright moon disappeared.

Han Ping'an opened his eyes and exhaled a breath of stale air. Although he tried his best to remain calm, a hint of joy still lingered between his brows.

This is a huge step.

Unfortunately, although the degree of absorption of lunar essence and yin energy is constantly improving, it is still not as good as Rongrong's Illusionary Moon Demon Eye.

The amount of lunar essence absorbed in one night was not enough to support the foundation of the Nine Yin Jade Bone Claw's "Nine Revolutions of Heavenly Refining of Profound Yin" step.

It will take at least three more nights to absorb.

Han Ping'an stood up and patted Rongrong on the shoulder.

"Let's go, let's go down."

Swish! !

Two creatures, one large and one small, swooped down from the roof.

Several figures also emerged from the house.

Gu Ming, Li Mengshan, and Sun Qing.

"Uncle Sun, take Rongrong to the martial arts school."

"I'll get ready and go to the yamen."

Rongrong waved her little hand: "Brother Han, be careful."

"rest assured."

Han Pingan smiled and waved his hand.

Watching the two leave the shop, Gu Ming quickly asked, "How was the haul?"

"It's half done."

"We need to accumulate for a few more days."

"Halfway done??"

Gu Ming stared wide-eyed at Li Mengshan.

The group learned a little about the Nine Yin Jade Bone Claw, and after absorbing the Moon Essence and Profound Yin, they mastered it in one night.

"I also want to thank my aunt for the gift she gave me," Han Ping'an explained simply, and that wasn't far from the truth.

"I see."

Gu Ming suddenly realized.

The gift from my aunt must be quite nice.

"Ming-ge, Uncle Li, I'm leaving the outside to you."

"Don't worry, we'll let you know if anything happens."

Gu Ming and Li Mengshan straightened up and nodded.

Han Ping'an nodded and smiled, then left the general store and headed towards the county government office.

On the way, he glanced at the Life Cauldron space.

There's nothing else inside now.

Only the Gathering Evil Jar and eighteen six-winged Blood Shadow Silkworms.

There's no suitable place to put the evil-gathering jar yet, so just leave it alone.

The eighteen Blood Shadow Silkworms are his greatest asset at present.

"In combat, the ability to control others without revealing or being detected..."

Han Pingan squinted, his thoughts wandering.

The Blood Shadow Silkworm should ideally defend itself without being detected, so we need to develop more covert methods.

As he approached the county government office, he had already come up with a few simple ideas.

The existence of the Life Cauldron Space provides immense convenience.

"Brother Han?"

Brother Jiang.

Han Ping'an stared in surprise at the several figures walking towards him from across the street. The one in the lead was none other than his old customer, Jiang Long.

Snake Hand Gang, Lu Family.

He instantly understood the connection between them.

It's not surprising that Jiang Long appeared here.

"Brother Han, are you also here to compete for the position of city defense battalion captain?"

Upon seeing Han Ping'an appear, Jiang Long was as surprised as if he were standing on a five-story building.

To be honest, he still doesn't know anything about Han Ping'an's background.

I guess so.

"It seems Brother Jiang is one of them. Speaking of which, I think Brother Jiang is the only one I know here. I hope Brother Jiang will take good care of me." Han Ping'an smiled and bowed, "Congratulations, Brother Jiang."

I'm looking out for you?

Brother Jiang's lips twitched slightly; Han Ping'an had entered the pass even earlier than him.

He knew his cultivation level had been seen through as soon as the other party said "Congratulations".

That's right.

Brother Jiang has also entered the pass.

The key was the large sum of money obtained from Han Ping'an, which was used to purchase the secret medicine.

"Let's go inside."

"The competition for the captain's position in this city defense battalion formation is also very fierce."

"However, with Brother Han's strength, it shouldn't be a problem."

Han Ping'an raised an eyebrow slightly: "It seems Brother Jiang knows quite a lot. Please enlighten me."

He followed Jiang Long into the government compound, where many people had already arrived.

There were at least twenty or thirty people.

Moreover, most of them gave him the impression of being at the entry-level.

The sheer scale of this operation is already quite astonishing.

"Ha, Jiang Long of the Snake Hand Gang."

"As expected, they are the Lu family's dogs."

A martial artist glanced at Jiang Long and gave a cold, unceremonious sneer.

A flash of murderous intent crossed Jiang Long's eyes, but he ignored it.

"That belongs to the Fan family, and they don't get along with the Lu family."

"Brother Han, if you come with me, you'll probably attract unwanted attention," Jiang Long said in a low voice without changing his expression.

The Fan family?

Han Ping'an's eyes flashed.

Jing County has four major ethnic groups: Fan, Lu, Chen, and Li.

The Snake Hand Gang is backed by the Lu family, which can fool some ordinary people, but not powerful clans like the Fan family.

From the moment he entered the compound of this government office, he could already smell the tension within the city's defense camp.

However, the more chaotic, the better.

In response to Jiang Long's reminder, Han Ping'an said calmly, "Brother Jiang, to be honest, we should be on the same side."

"One of our own?"

Jiang Long was truly dumbfounded.

Although he was a powerful figure who had entered the pass, Snake Hand was a member of Snake Hand's gang and held a high position.

But he was all too aware of his circumstances.

Every step requires risking your life.

On the other hand, what about Han Ping'an?

So mysterious that no one knows the details.

own people?

Am I worthy?

"If Miss Lu hadn't informed me, I wouldn't have known about the formation of this city defense battalion." Han Ping'an smiled meaningfully.

Miss Lu the Fourth?

hiss!

Seeing Han Ping'an's seemingly genuine demeanor, Jiang Long was startled.

If that's the case, then they really are one of us.

They wear the same pair of pants.

"Brother Jiang, please enlighten me on some inside information about the formation of the city defense battalion. I am completely clueless about it."

Upon hearing this, Jiang Long took a deep breath, suppressed his inner shock, and became serious.

There are a total of sixteen team captain positions.
