Bang!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Brother Zhao, are you home?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The knocking and asking outside made Zhang Yuan, who had just returned to his room, have to go out to open the door.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He saw an old man standing timidly at the door.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The people from the True Martial Sect had just left, and Old Man Kou hurried over right after.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing Zhang Yuan, he immediately put on a smile and cautiously asked, \"Brother Zhao, the snow is heavy outside, can you let the old man come in to talk?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This old guy knew that Zhang Yuan didn’t really like him, so his words were humble despite being polite.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Actually, Zhang Yuan’s impression of him had improved a lot, and he knew that the old man wasn’t visiting without reason.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So, he nodded: \"Mm.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Old Man Kou followed Zhang Yuan into the room, revealing a look of relief.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He couldn’t help but praise, \"Brother Zhao, there’s no more comfortable house in the entire West Mountain Collection than yours!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhang Yuan smiled.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhang Yuan’s house was indeed comfortable to live in.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When building it, he had the craftsmen make arrangements according to his requirements.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then he personally carried out some modifications and renovations.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For example, the fireplace on the wall, not just in West Mountain Collection, even in Xia Ruins, you couldn’t find a similar design.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was from Zhang Yuan’s memories and experience of his previous life.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His fireplace was designed large enough that just stuffing enough wood in once could warm the whole room.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It could also roast and boil water.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was both convenient and practical.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Not only that, Zhang Yuan covered the seats with tiger skins he had hunted and used bear skins as a rug in front of the fireplace.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>One could comfortably laze around all day.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He poured Old Man Kou a cup of hot tea and then asked, \"Old Kou, is it about the True Martial Sect?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Old Man Kou glanced at the three burlap sacks in the corner of the room and quickly replied, \"That’s right, they came to your house too?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhang Yuan did not deny it: \"Yes.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Old Man Kou showed a disappointed look: \"This group of people drove a big cart over, they went to most people’s houses, I thought they surely came to yours too, so I came to check.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhang Yuan’s heart stirred, and he smiled faintly: \"They didn’t give you anything?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Old Man Kou forced a smile: \"The old man is useless, nobody looks up to me!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>True Martial Sect undoubtedly tailored their offerings to the person.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>An old fellow on the brink of death meant nothing to them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So naturally, they didn’t bother with appearances.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But from another perspective, True Martial Sect was quite familiar with West Mountain Collection, otherwise, they couldn’t have been so precise.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This also indicated that someone from here had already taken refuge with the True Martial Sect!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhang Yuan shook his head and then pointed to the three burlap sacks in the corner, saying: \"I don’t like their stuff, it’s all yours.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Huh?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Old Man Kou was taken aback, almost not believing his ears.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhang Yuan laughed and said, \"I’m not joking, I really don’t want it, take it with you when you leave.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He wasn’t short of these things at all!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Honestly speaking, although there was little possibility of a problem with the sheep meat, rice, and salt sent by the True Martial Sect,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>it wasn’t worth any risk for Zhang Yuan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He might as well give it away.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>You know, for winter, Zhang Yuan specially dug a new cellar, exclusively for storing supplies purchased from Ruins City.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It would last the entire winter!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Understanding Zhang Yuan was serious, Old Man Kou was grateful, tears welling up: \"Thank you, Brother Zhao, thank you!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This old veteran, accustomed to slowly fading away, had a trace of emotion flash deep in his eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He hurriedly bowed his head, secretly wiping the wet corner of his eye.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Actually, Old Man Kou wasn’t sentimental; he had seen the world’s wickedness and distrust, and for survival, he had slipped and dodged, not a truly good person.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But at his age, accustomed to others’ cold eyes and abuses, barely living day by day.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Suddenly feeling the kindness from Zhang Yuan, he couldn’t help but be moved.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Taking a sip of hot tea, Old Man Kou calmed himself and then asked, \"Brother Zhao, do you have any plans?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhang Yuan answered without hesitation: \"I’ll take it one step at a time, anyway, I won’t become a dog for the True Martial Sect.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Having been sold out once by the Furious Whale Gang, how could he join another faction?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Never in this lifetime!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It’s predictable that when spring comes, True Martial Sect will establish themselves, bound to unify the entire West Mountain Collection.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Playing the game of ’those who submit shall prosper, those who resist shall perish.’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Once you join, you’d be unable to control your fate, most likely used as cannon fodder in fights with other factions!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhang Yuan wasn’t afraid of fighting but felt tired of it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Old Man Kou asked again: \"Do you have plans to go somewhere?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That was indeed a question!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhang Yuan thought for a moment, answering: \"Daoist Xuan Cheng from Celestial King Hall invited me to serve as an Outer Guardian.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Old Man Kou’s eyes almost bulged out, tremblingly asking: \"Why didn’t you go?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The old man’s eyes were green with envy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhang Yuan glanced at him, indifferently saying: \"I dislike being restrained.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"But that’s Celestial King Hall!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Old Man Kou nearly thumped his chest: \"So many people want to get in but can’t, it depends on fate, and you...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He really wanted to curse Zhang Yuan for wasting an opportunity at hand.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thankfully, his mind still held some reason.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhang Yuan was somewhat surprised.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He hadn’t expected Old Man Kou’s reaction to be so intense, and immediately realized Xia Ruins Celestial King Hall wasn’t as simple as he imagined.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But he genuinely didn’t care.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Old Man Kou sighed: \"If you were a Celestial King Hall’s Outer Guardian, True Martial Sect wouldn’t dare provoke you.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhang Yuan waved his hand: \"We’ll see.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Unless there’s no way out, he wouldn’t consider relying on Daoist Xuan Cheng.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Old Man Kou hesitated, then pulled out a map from his pocket and handed it to Zhang Yuan: \"Brother Zhao, here is a map to Great Dream Marsh, if there’s really no other way, you can hide there.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The True Martial Sect won’t stay in West Mountain Collection for long.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Great Dream Marsh?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhang Yuan took the map out of curiosity: \"People can live there?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Great Dream Marsh was located downstream of the Long Celestial River, said to be vast and boundless, more remote than Xia Ruins.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Yes!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Old Man Kou answered firmly: \"There are quite a few people living there!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Thank you.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhang Yuan put the map away.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He didn’t think Old Man Kou was fooling him, but also had no intention of running to Great Dream Marsh.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He wasn’t one to flee headlong.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Running around would only tire himself out!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If it came to that, Zhang Yuan would go and buy a house in Ruins City.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Though not as convenient and free as now, settling down again wasn’t a problem.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He could always return to West Mountain Collection later.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Old Man Kou felt relieved, as if completing his final wish, stood up and said: \"Then I’ll leave, you take care.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhang Yuan saw Old Man Kou out, loaded the three burlap sacks onto the cart for him to take back himself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The cart was a framework from an ox cart.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The oxen had been eaten, but the cart remained.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It came in handy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After Old Man Kou left, Zhang Yuan closed the door.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Also shutting out the swirling snow outside.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this moment, he had made up his mind.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Before spring arrives, break through Tier Four!\u003C\u002Fp>",1320,"2026-06-06T13:54:04.656Z",1,"novelbin.me","ca1c7aed3031c3f7816bd089a3e80761a506ea5dfec958a7403b20261b162e04","i-can-use-myriad-divine-abilities-chapter-197","i-can-use-myriad-divine-abilities-chapter-195",497,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fi-can-use-myriad-divine-abilities-cover.jpg"]
